SUMMARY OF EQUIPMENT AND MATERIAL 
!45 
V. APPARATUS AND INSTRUMENTS. 
A dissecting and a compound microscope for each student in a 
laboratory division. 
A set of dissecting instruments (including fine pointed and 
heavy forceps, a strong pair of scissors, and at least two scalpels of 
different sizes) for each student. 
A supply of water hones for sharpening scalpels. 
A medium hard (2H or 4H) drawing pencil, eraser, and large 
note book (10 X 14 inches) of good smooth quality, but not 
too heavy paper, for each student. 
A supply of small hand saws, chisels, wooden mallets, and 
bone forceps, and special knives, sufficient for each student or 
each two students in a laboratory division. 
Some form of manifolding apparatus. 
Small protractors for measuring the angles of bones. 
Several long thin knives for sectioning brains. 
Several hand section cutters. 
At least one good microtome, and extra microtome knives. 
At least one large (1000 c.c.) and one small (100 c.c.) glass 
graduate. 
Small glass medical (male urethral) syringes for the injection of 
circulatory systems. (These, when connected by short pieces 
of rubber tubing with cannulas made by drawing out small glass 
tubing, are most satisfactory for injection of blood vessels.) 
A paraffine oven or other device for imbedding (cf. p. 24). 
An optical model of the eye (the simple one manufactured by 
the Harvard Apparatus Company, is recommended). 
Some form of stethoscope. 
Some form of sphygmograph. 
Some form of sphygmomanometer. 
Some form of haemocytometer. 
Some form of haemoglobinometer. 
An hydrometer (for fluids heavier than water). 
A centrifuge machine (of the type used for examination of 
milk). 
A circulation scheme for study of the mechanical principles of 
circulation (the one devised by Porter, and furnished by the 
Harvard Apparatus Company, has been found very satisfactory).
