Mr. and Mrs. H. L. MeKaig of
ing defective audition was demon-
strated by Doctor Warwick in his
analysis of the sound of high and
low notes or rapid and slow vib-
rations as- recorded by a person
with abnormal hearing. The Ft.
Worth doctor did much to demon-
strate the probable reasons for
many persons’ dislike for certain
types of music or speech.
Another outstanding speaker was
Dr. Gerald B. Webb of Colorado
Springs, who traced the history of
tuberculosis from its very begin
niag. Dr. Webb's lecture was un-
usually interesting. Dr. Griffin said,
because of his detailed discussion
of evidences in history that indi-
cate cases of tuberculosis centur-
ies ago. A striking example was
Dr. Webb's description of fjnrp-
tion carvings that bore picture* of
persons who suffered from *klh tu-
berculosis.
The elinic was concluded with
a banquet at which Dr. and Mrs.
