 posterity may the better form an accurate opinion of the varied 

 activities of this remarkable man. 



Both Roscoe and Meldola belonged to the highest type of 

 manhood and afford brilliant refutations of the alleged incom- 

 patibility of high scientific attainments and public service. 



Of Roscoe no less than of Meldola we may echo the words 

 of Lord Moulton on the latter : 



" It may be said of him that he represented fully the type of 

 intellect and personality which must be developed amongst us 

 if this war is not to be a mere incident in the long-drawn-out 

 decline of our national greatness. We must have leaders and 

 followers who, like him, are inspired with an equal devotion to 

 knowledge and to the utilisation of knowledge."
