Abstract

THE friends of Prof. G. Carey Foster, F.R.S., are taking the occasion of his recent retirement from the principalship of University College, London, as an opportunity of showing their appreciation of him by promoting a fund with the object of haying his portrait painted for presentation to the council of the college, and a replica for presentation to Mrs. Foster. The president of the movement is the Right Hon. Lord Reay, G.C.S.I., and the vice-presidents are Sir Norman Lockyer, K.C.B., Sir Oliver Lodge, and Sir Arthur Rücker. Further information with regard to the scheme may be obtained from the secretaries of the fund, University College, Gower Street, W.C.
