310 REPORTS ON THE STATE OF SCIENCE.—1913. 
III. No limit. 
IV. (a) The Exhibition Fund of not less than 600/. per annum. It is not usual to 
erant more than 60/. in one year to an individual. 
(6) A small fund of about 40/. in the hands of the President, sometimes augmented 
by private gifts to 70/., is usually distributed in gifts of about 10/. to deserving and 
needy undergraduates, not necessarily scholars or exhibitioners. 
V. (a) I cannot recall any. 
(b) I think not. 
(c) If such resignations were threatened, the College would certainly intervene 
in the case of a promising and deserving undergraduate. 
VI. I have only to add that this College has for many years past done its best 
to keep and encourage poor men. 
MeErtToN CoLLEeGE, OXFORD. 
I. 20 Scholarships of 80/.; 4 Exhibitions of 80/., plus a limited number (about 2 
a year) of 60/., restricted to candidates in need of assistance at the University. All 
tenable at the outset for two years, renewable for two years if the holder has given 
satisfaction. A fifth is sometimes sanctioned for special reasons. 
II. No. 
III. No. 
IV. An Exhibition Fund, including an annual subsidy not exceeding 400/. from 
the College, and the emoluments of vacant Scholarships and dividends from two 
bequests of about 601. a year. 
V. (a) No resignations. The College gives help from the Exhibition Fund to 
very poor students who cannot live on their Scholarships. Only latterly the holder 
of an Exhibition of 80]. received an addition of 50/. on the grounds of poverty and 
exceptional promise. But so large a grant is unusual. 
WanduAm CoLLecr, OxForRD. 
I. 14 Scholarships, 1 of 867. ; 13 of 80/., tenable, as a rule, for four years; 14 Ex- 
hibitions of 23/7. to 60/., tenable for four years. 
II. No, with four special exceptions. 
III. No. 
IV. (a) A fund of about 50/. in the Warden’s hands to assist deserving students. 
(b) Frequently some assistance from private benefaction. 
V. (a) and (6) I have never known of such cases. Sometimes deserving students 
get their Scholarships or Exhibitions supplemented by private benefaction. 
VI. Our scholars almost always come from homes where some help is needed for 
a boy to come to the University. During my thirty years’ experience I cannot recall 
a single case of a scholar or exhibitioner to whom the money was immaterial, and 
may also mention that in case of special need or desert help is given for residence 
during a fifth year. Each such case is decided on its merits. 
Att Sours’ CoLLEGE, OXFORD. 
I. 4 Bible Clerkships, value consisting in lodging, tuition, and allowances, fully 
coven board during academical terms, tenable for three years. 
SING:
