Abstract
AT the annual banquet of the Royal Academy on Saturday evening, Sir Norman Lockyer, in replying on behalf of science, made the following remarks upon the intimate relation between intellectual progress and the study of nature, and also upon the necessity for a more liberal provision for scientific work if England wishes to compete successfully with other nations struggling for industrial supremacy. Though the public mind may be disturbed by the statement of the principle that the provision made for scientific and technical study and research should be as great as that given by any two other nations, the comparison will serve a useful purpose in directing attention to a view of the claims of science worthy of consideration.
