...without bewildering the uninitiated reader with technical details. Besides an outline of the features of the progress in meteorology which has made possible the establishment of such a station as that on Blue Hill, Professor McAdie tells of the faithful work of Professor Rotch, founder of the observatory, whose name is now attached to the professorial chair occupied by Professor McAdie.
