It was painted shortly after the enlarge- ment of the present clinical arena, but attracted little or no attention, ex- cept as a decoration, the Fitness of which was neither criticised nor praised. 225

X srl at ly 1 E tx 1 Side, cal., be orpuscle many incidents connected with the early life of THE CoRPL'5c1.E have already been enumerated in detail by Dr. Chas. Center in the PULSE of last year: but for the benefit of the hundreds of new students who have since chosen Rush to be their rzfzmz izzfzfvr, a few of the early incidents will be repeated. To Dr E.

Dr. G. in his salutatory editorial said: It is called THE CORPUSCLE because we expect it to circulate throughout the college system, and have a part to do in helping to build up and strengthen the organization which it per- vades. It will be the students' organ, since everything has an organ, and not an official publication, although it goes out with the approval and assistance of our Faculty. I expect to see half a dozen medical college journals within half a year after the appearance of THE CORl'lfSCLE.H The first issue, a twelve-page edition, abounded in original notes and short newsy articles concerning the college and students, and judging from an announcement on one of the last pages, that there will probably be a second issue in April, 189l, we infer that it was not the intention at that time, or at least not thought possible, to publish a monthly journal. The second edition appeared 'luly 1, ISQI, edited and managed by eleven editors. It soon became manifest, however, that so large a representation was detrimental, therefore the Board was reduced to five and the business management was placed in the hands of XV. J. Anderson, who either directly or indirectly managed this depart- ment until vluly, 1894. The demands for enlargement and improvement could not be satisfactorily complied with by one whose only interest in the journal was a monetary interest, and an unsuccessful effort was made in 1895 to place the management with those who were otherwise interested in the paper and school. This change was finally successfully made, and since September, ISQ4, the management has been with representatives of the Board. The Faculty have become supporters of the medium by way of furnishing articles and clinical reports for its columns. The alumni have adopted it as their official organ. '7'7' --X
