Abstract
It is now thirty-two years since I last brought this subject before the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Since then nothing has been done to remedy the imperfections which were then shown to characterise the thermometer screens used throughout the country. In some respects these imperfections may seem to be of small importance. Yet in these days when accuracy of measurement is being more and more insisted on, and particularly now when reconstruction is everywhere in vogue, it does seem desirable that apparatus largely used by thousands of observers should be as perfect as it is possible to make it.
