that surgeons will, Stanley claims. be able
to operate directly in the ray without the
necessity Of taking preliminary photo
graphs, as with the X-ray. This will make
it possible, for instance, for an army
surgeon working at the front to lean over
his operating table and see at once with
the Stanley ray the bullets or bits Of
shrapnel in the patients body.
With the X-ray. the operator has 10 work
behind q lead door or screen to prevent
himself from getting burned. The time
lost in taking photographs is often of fatal
consequences.
Mr.. Stanley has demonstrated to the
satisfaction of spectators that his green
ray will not burn even when the hand is
held against the bulb so as to show in
detail the bones against a Guorescent
screen. He declares that his ray will
make a good picture at a distance of thirty
nine feet, absolutely impossible with other
rays He also has demonstrated that his
ray will project a picture of the hand
through a heavy door twelve feet from the
bulb.
With the Stanley rays it will be easp.
