From the Glasgow Medical Journal
In connection with the death OF Dr.
Whltelaw, of Kirklntilloch. an interesting
story is told OF his early career. Being
called up one night, he was walking
along with the messenger when he was
set upon and knocked down in a lonely

His pockets were rihed and he was left
lying on the road severely injured. One
of the articles stolen was a clinical Their
mometer with which he had that evening
taken the temperature Of a patient He
remembered the temperature registered,
also that he had not shaken down the
mercury before putting the thermometer
back in his pocket and he communicated
these facts TO the police.
Some time afterward a thermometer
registering the identical temperature was
discovered in a pawnshOp in Glasgow
and by this means the police were en-
abled 10 track the doctors assailants
and to arrest them.

At the drill Friday night OF the Signal
Corps Company, messages for the first
time were transmitted between squads.
After running through the alphabet with
flags two or three times. the company
was divided into two squads and each
stationed ct opposite ends Of the drill
hall at the Center Market Armory. Mes
sages were sent back and forth with
clocklike regularity. despite the fact that
squads and companies from the infantry
were marching and cOunter-marching
across the floor of the hall
This was az first disconcertng 20 tho
signalmen, especially as the infantrymen
often came between the sender and the
receiver. but this was overcome by the
movements CT the squads TO have q clear

In order that you may see further
just how mistaken the editor OF the Ma
/ uonal Guard Magazine is-how he is ac-
customed TO build without any real foun-
dation-we quote the following from his
article:

for the payment Of the troops OF the Ma
