THREE Fellows of the Royal Society have had honours conferred upon them on the occasion of her Majesty's eightieth birthday. Prof. J. S. Burdon Sanderson, Regius professor of medicine in the University of Oxford, has had the dignity of a baronetcy conferred upon him; and physiology is also honoured in the person of Prof. Michael Foster, joint-secretary of the Royal Society, and president-elect of the British Association, who has been appointed to be K.C.B. The promotions from C.B. to K.C.B. include Mr. W. H. Preece, who recently retired from his position as engineer-in-chief of the General Post Office.
