160 NOTE ON THE "FRED. P. PULLAR MEMORIAL PRIZES." 



value to merit publication. Those proposing to work for any 

 one of these prizes should make known their intention to the 

 Secretary of the Association (John A. Todd, Esq., 190, West 

 George Street, Glasgow) in order that the necessary arrangements 

 may be made. 



The offer of the above-mentioned prizes marks an important 

 departure in the study of marine biology in Scotland, and it 

 should at least do much to still further increase the good work 

 done at the well-known Millport Station in the Firth of Clyde. 

 It is sincerely to be hoped, in the interests of science, that quite 

 a number of competitors may be induced to enter for each of the 

 prizes. 



It may not be out of place here to call attention to the very 

 interesting little " Handbook of the Marine Station, Keppel Pier, 

 Millport," which has quite recently been issued by the Marine 

 Biological Association of the West of Scotland. It is designed to 

 give a brief account of the history and present position of the 

 Station, and to indicate some of the lines along which the work 

 of the Station may be expected to develop in the near future. It 

 contains an excellent portrait of the late Dr. David Kobertson — 

 " The Cumbrae Naturalist " — together with views and plans of 

 the Station buildings and boats.
