Much information was obtained on the life histories of the forms to be represented, which will form the basis, not only for exhibition work, but for future research. Many notes, water-color sketches and preliminary models were made directly from life. Dr. Lutz spent considerable time during the summer in northern New Jersey obtaining material for exhibition purposes. He had three main objects in view: (1) an exhibit of spider webs, (2) an exhibit of the burrows of bees, solitary wasps and other insects, and (3) an exhibit showing the number of species of insects to be found in a sub- urban back yard. Approximately five hundred species were found in a lot 75 x 200 ft. in a town within easy commuting distance of New York City. The Curator has made substantial progress in the study of the land snails belonging to the genus Partula, collected in the islands of Moorea and Raiatea. The Curator Research also has nearly completed two papers dealing - ee with biological problems in the case of the Ameri- can silk worm moth, Philosamia cynthia. Mr. Miner has continued work on “The Synonymy and Bibliog- raphy of American Myriapods.” Dr. Van Name’s paper on the West Indian Ascidians, which was practically completed last year, has been held in reserve pending his comparison and ex- amination of certain other collections. A paper by Professor G. A. MacCallum, entitled “A New Species of Trematode (Cladorchis gigas) Parasitic on Elephants,” was published early in the year as a part of the results of the Congo expedi- tion. A paper by W. G. and G. A. MacCallum, entitled “On the Anatomy of the Leech Ozobranchus branchiatus Menzies,” was also published in the Museum Bulletin. An excellent paper by Professor C. Branch Wilson, entitled “Parasitic Copepods of the Congo Collection,” is now in press, which de- scribes several new species of this interesting group. The paper on the Congo Mollusks by Professor H. A. Pilsbry is now ready for publication. Professor Pilsbry is also working on the Congo Cirripedes. The Crustacea of the Congo Col- lection will form the subject of several papers which will appear in the near future, the Brachyura being worked up by 70 Report of the President Miss Mary G. Rathbun of the United States National Museum, the Anomura, Macrura and Stomatopoda by Dr. W. L. Schmitt, and the Amphipoda by Dr. C. R. Shoemaker of the same institution. The Congo Myriapods have been assigned to Professor Ralph V. Chamberlain of the Museum of Com- parative Zoology, Cambridge, Mass., while Mr. Miner is work- ing on the West Indian and local Myriapods. Considerable work has also been done on the collections made by the Crocker Land Expedition; the Echinoderms have been identified by Dr. Austin H. Clark, the Parasitic Crustacea by Professor C. B. Wilson, the Parasitic Worms by Professor H. B. Ward, the Bryozoa by Professor R. C. Osburn, the Cirripedes by Pro- fessor H. A. Pilsbry, the Amphipods by Dr. C. RK. Shee maker, the Mollusks by Dr. Frank C. Baker and the Ascidians by Dr. W. G. Van Name. The following entomological papers have been published in the Bulletin: Chris E. Olsen, “North American Cicadellide in the Collection of The American Museum of Natural History”; Chas. W. Leng and Andrew J. Mutchler, “Insects of Florida, V. The Water Beetles”; Wm. Barnes and J. McDunnough, “Life Histories of North Ameri- can Species of the Genus Catocala’; E. P. Felt, “Notes and Descriptions of Itonidide in the Collection of The American Museum of Natural History”; A. H. Sturtevant, “A Synopsis of the Nearctic Species of the Genus Drosophila (sensu lato)” ; Nathan Banks, “The Termites of Panama and British Guiana” ; T. D. A.

FELIX M. WARBURG, Chairman. February I, 1919 219 220 Pension Fund Report With the entrance of the United States into the war, came new and extraordinary liabilities for the Pension Fund. Asa result it has been found advisable during the year 1918 to guard against an extension of the membership with the conse- quent liabilities which such extension entails. For this reason, the Pension Fund has fewer subscribers at the end of 1918 than at the beginning of the year. The diminished member- ship, however, indicates no decrease in the prosperity of the Fund, which promises expansion at the usual rate with the re- turn of pre-war conditions. The report.of membership for 1918 is as follows: Number of Subscribers, January I, 1918 ............-- 256 New Subscribers during the year 1918 .............00- 18 Reinstatements made during the year 1918 ........... fe) ena ae 274 Resignations and ‘Dismissals (ioe vou deeel asia ellale 22 RVEtURETITO MES ie sieges sae aia ROSIN a RN A GOK ar a EAU (a) ED Yer oi ni yas SUTRAS De GLA ALUMINA ISEB AU Gen DM SC BB Number of Subscribers, December 31, 1918 .........-- 249 Consistent with the good record which they established for themselves at the time of the first Liberty Loans, in 1917, the employees of the Museum have subscribed generously to the succeeding loans; 217 employees subscribed to the Third Loan (April-May), totalling $20,150; 175 employees subscribed to the Fourth Loan (October), in an amount of $20,900. As in the case of the previous loans, the generosity of one of the members of the Pension Board made it possible for the em- ployees to take out their bonds on a serial payment basis. It is due to this liberal provision that the employees were enabled to contribute so largely to the Liberty Loans. In accordance with its past policy, the Pension Board has given aid, during 1918, to such deserving employees as were in need of medical attention or hospital treatment and were them- selves unable to make the necessary provision. These em- ee ee oe ee ne ne eS ee Stiga at il F’ ty my [ Pension Fund Report 221 ployees have in such cases been carefully examined and ad- vised by Dr. Anderton, and have been given help in obtaining the needed medical or hospital treatment. Wherever possible, a choice of hospitals has been given. Seven employees have received such aid during the past year, the majority obtaining relief as a result. The matter of securing endowed beds for the use of Museum employees was taken up again in 1918 by the Board, but it was not found possible to conclude a satisfactory arrangement. In order to keep the Pension Fund intact, the Trustees of the Museum, at a meeting held early in 1918, agreed to reimburse the Fund for such amounts as it might be necessary to pay on account of casualties occurring among the subscribing mem- bers in the national service, to a total amount not exceeding $5,000. As estimate showed that $5,000 was the approximate maximum liability of the Fund on account of war losses, the provision was a guaranty of the integrity of the Pension Fund. It served also as a further evidence of the liberality and in- terest of the Trustees in affairs touching the welfare of Pension members and their families. The Pension Board, having in mind the health of subscrib- ing members of the Fund and of other employees, have sug- gested to the Trustees of the corporation the desirability of retaining a physician, whose duty it should be to make free periodical examinations of employees, with a view to the pre- vention and correction of ailments. While such an arrange- ment would involve considerable expense, it is anticipated that the benefits to and the increased efficiency of the employees would be an adequate return on the investment. As a result of the greatly increased living expenses and the high wage levels prevailing in industrial occupations, some of the subscribing employees in 1918 requested leave of absence for the period of the war, with a view to earning more money. While the Museum authorities would have welcomed the opportunity of assisting these employees in any legitimate way, they felt that to permit such leave of absence would be unjust, as the members, although absent from their work in the Mu- seum, would none the less remain liabilities against the Fund, 222 Pension Fund Report and with undoubtedly increased risk. This would amount to a discrimination against the greater number of subscribers. It was therefore found necessary to reject such applications for leave of absence, and to notify the members of the Fund that only military or naval service, compliance with the rulings of the Draft Board, illness, or such other reasons as the authori- ties should find just and proper, would constitute valid basis for leave of absence. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For the use of their endowed beds in the Presbyterian Hos- pital, the Pension Fund is grateful to Mr. Horace F. Hutchin- son and Mr. Richard B. Kelly. For cooperation in securing free treatment at the Presby- terian Hospital for an employee in need, the Board is indebted to Mr. L. E. Belmont. Col. S. H. Wolfe has generously extended to the Pension Board the privilege of sending employees to the number of five in one year to use his endowed bed in Mt. Sinai Hospital. The Pension Board is grateful to Dr. Walter P. Anderton for his unremitting care and patience in the examination of members and applicants, and for his kind codperation in secur- ing the necessary treatment and facilities for employees in need of such assistance. To Counsel Lewis L. Delafield the Pension Board owes thanks for advice and suggestions graciously offered during the past year. The members of the Pension Fund are proud of their Honor Roll, to which a number of names have been added since the last Report. We have reason to be deeply thankful that, while a number of men have been wounded, only one loss of life has occurred among our men in service. Pension Fund Report 223 HONOR ROLL “HARoLp E.

Deceased Subseribers It is with deep regret that we record the deaths of the following members during the year 1918: GEORGE CHAMBERLAIN George Chamberlain was born on January 21, 1879, in Cam- bridge, England. Entering the service of the Museum in 1909 as an attendant, his capabilities were early recognized, and he was soon transferred to the Library, in which department he labored faithfully and with competence up to the time of his last illness. Possessed of an unusually happy disposition, never failing courtesy and genial presence, his untimely death caused a deep sense of personal loss to his associates in the institution. He died on October 29, 1918, after a long and painful illness during which he displayed remarkable fortitude and cheerfulness. CHARLES A. CONNOLLY Charles A. Connolly was born on February 9, 1893, in New York City. In 1911, he came to the Museum and was assigned to the Custodians’ Force. In 1914, he joined the famous 69th Regiment and served with his company, as sergeant, for nine months in 1917 on the Mexican border. Mustered into the Federal Service in 1918, he was among the first to be sent abroad. On July 28, during the famous drive at Chateau- Thierry, he made the supreme sacrifice for his country and for the liberty and integrity of the nations of the earth. A fitting monument to his memory will long endure in the form of a grove of fruit-trees bearing his name, which this institution 225 _ 226 Pension Fund Report has caused to be planted where he fell. His former associates in the Museum are reminded of their loss by the golden star on the Museum’s service flag. As a soldier, his courage, tact- fulness and care for those under him have been heartily at- tested by his comrades. As a loving and considerate son, a genial companion, an efficient and conscientious worker, and above all as a thoroughly patriotic American young man, he will always be affectionately remembered. DANIEL DOHERTY Daniel Doherty was born on June 15, 1856, in Ireland. For about eighteen years he served this institution efficiently and faithfully. Intensely patriotic and loyal to the country of his adoption, he was equally ardent and firm in his friendships. Always welcome among groups of workers in the Museum, his unexpected death came as a distinct shock. Pleasant memories of this agreeable and trustworthy employee will always remain in the hearts of those with whom he associated. He died on June 27, 1918. a a —— RETIREMENTS Date Period Effective of Service fan T Davis.....\. Wanpenter.. 2. Marchi 1) Tei 7c. 3). 05) yas fame jordan... Attendant, ...
