The ralue of the Rhodes Scholarships, tenable for three years at Oxford University, under the terms of the will oi Mr Cecil Rhodes, has been increased from £350 to £4 CO a year. This is the second increase in. the value of the scholarships, and is due to a recognition by the, trustees of the increased cost oi living at Oxford.
