Regulations have been issued by the Carnegie Trust Com- mittee

dealing with the Scholarships, Fellowships, and Grants of the Trust. The Scholarships (£100 a year, tenable for one year) are confined to graduates of Scottish Universities, and are intended to afford opportunities for higher study and research, and to enable them to qualify for the Fellowships (2150 a year, tenable for two or three years), which will be given as rewards for original work. They are awarded in two independent groups of learning,—namely, science and medicine; and secondly, history, economics, and modern languages and literature. Both Scholars and Fellows will ordinarily devote the whole of their time to the purposes for which they are appointed, and a Fellow will be expected to prepare a memoir upon the results of his work. Grants in aid of special research will also be made under carefully drawn conditions.
