President Adams. He tells the
story In the following paragraphs
DR.. Irwin's feat of wireless sur
gerry, which passed almost unno-
ticed at the time, occurred nearly
ten years ago, long before broad
casting became a household word.
At that time, while sailing in the
Caribbean, DIR. Twins ship picked
up a wireless message reporting
that a seaman on a distant vessel
was in a critical condition, his leg
having been caught in some ma
chinery, and asking for advice.
DIR. Irwin Immediately responded
with a minute message advising the
amputation of the crushed member,
and directing the operation in a
series of detailed instructions. The
operation proved a great success
During a recent eastward trip OF
the President Adams a wireless
message was picked up by that
liner reporting a sailor on another
ship far out at e to be on the
point of death from pneumonia
DIR. Irwin Immediately got in touch
with the captain of the vessel
which proved to be the freighter
Hickman, and got a satisfactory
diagnosis. He then wirelessed
prescription. The captain of the
Hickman replied that he did MOI
possess on board the medicament:
prescribed.
The task then became complicat'
ed and prolonged. DR.. Irwin re
quested a report of the complete
list of drugs to be found on th'
lfreighter. The reply soon came, anc
the surgeon found that the supply
was extremely limited. However
he made the most of the situation
as it was impossible to dispatch thu
necessary indictments, and for thu
next three days messages were ex
changed almost hourly between TIT
two steamers.
On the third day, DR.. Irwin's eft
forts were rewarded with a cheer
full message stating that the sea
man was responding to the treat
ment and was gradually regaininl
his strength. The modern bard ii
quest of epic material could no
find a more alluring theme thai
this battle against death by wire

one, and it opens up a vista o
enormous possibilities.
