SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH
LONDON, July 10. The council of the Royal Society announces that it has decided to use the larger part of Yarrow’s £lOO,OOO bequest in founding professorships, the holders of which will be expected to devote their whole time to scientific research, except that they may give a limited ccuise of instruction in subjects of their research to advanced students. The intention is to recognise research as a definite profession, instead of secondary occupation for men whose primary occupation is teaching.
