    date, and in 1908 as professor of physiological chemis- try. In his laboratory at Baltimore a large amount of experimental work bearing on nucleic acid and its deriva- tives has been carried on since 1899, with results of great value. He and Levene have been the two outstanding workers in this field in America. The following papers by Jones may be cited as illus- trating the character of his researches: Vber das Thy min, 1899; Vber das Enzym der Thymusdruse, 1904; Uber die Selbstverdauung der Nucleoproteiden, 1904; Vber die Guanase, with C. L. Partride, 1904; Vber die Adenase, with M. C. Winternitz, 1905; Vber die Beziehung der aus wasserigen Organextracten gewonnen Nuclein]ermente zu den physiologischen Vorgangen im lebenden Organismus, 1910; all published in the Zeitschrift fur physiologische chemie; On the Identity of the Nucleic Acids of the Thy- mus, Spleen and Pancreas, 1908; Concerning Nucleases, 1911; On the Formation of Guanylic Acid from Yeast Nucleic Acid, 1912; On the Guanylic Acid of the Spleen, with L. G. Rowntree; The Partial Enzymatic Decomposi- tion of Yeast Nucleic Acid, with A. E. Richards, 1914; The Mdde of Nucleotide Linkage in Yeast Nucleic Acid, with B. E. Read, 1917; Adenine-uracil Dinucleotide and the Structure of Yeast Nucleic Acid, with B. E. Read, 1916; Uracil-cytosine Dinucleotide, with B. E. Read, 1917; The Structure of the Purine Mononucleotides, with B. E. Read, 1917; all published in the Journal of Bio- logical Chemistry. Mention should also be made of the monograph written by Walter Jones, entitled Nucleic Acids, Their Chemical Properties and Physiological Conduct, 1914, one of the
