ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR.
1920
To the Trustees of Field Museum of Natural History:
I have the honor to present a report of the operations of the Museum
for the year ending December 31, 1920.
In every respect the year just closed must be considered as the most
important and momentous in the history of the organization. The
completion of the New Building, with the exception of the terrace,
approximately five years from the date when construction operations
were inaugurated, and its occupancy are two factors which make the
period not alone noteworthy, but also establish a new epoch in the
dissemination of scientific knowledge. The Building may be said to
have been completed on or about June 1, 1920, but the transfer by rail
of the collections and equipment commenced on the 26th day of April
and was practically concluded by June 4th. The actual moving op-
erations by railroad thus consumed thirty-four working days. The
plans for moving and the organization for carrying on the task had
been given careful consideration before work was begun and it isa
matter of congratulation that the undertaking was carried through
to its consummation without an untoward occurrence of any nature
and without serious damage to the material transported. As it was
thought advisable to move the heavier objects by motor trucks, this
method of transfer was inaugurated early in March and continued
with few interruptions daily until the beginning of September. In all
354 loads were handled in this manner and these were carried with the
same satisfactory result as the loads transported by railroad. As soon
as moving operations were concluded, installation was immediately
undertaken as reviewed elsewhere in this report. It may be said at this
date that fully one-third of the exhibition cases in the Museum have
' been finally placed, reinstalled and in a great many instances entirely
telabeled. There is every indication that the entire exhibition area will
be completely installed on or about the first of May 1921, when it is
intended that the Museum shall be re-opened to the public.
During the year the President of the Museum, Mr. Stanley Field,
contributed the sum of $100,000.00 toward the deficit in the New
375
376 Frecp Museum or Natvurar History — Reports, Vor. v.
Building Fund. The Board of Trustees in accepting this very generous
gift, expressed their appreciation with more than ordinary emphasis.
It is a pleasure also to announce that a contribution of $50,000.00
in the form of 500 shares of 7% preferred stock has been made by
Mr. Edward E. Ayer, the income of which after the death of Mrs. Ayer
and the donor is to be expended for the purchase of scientific books,
pamphlets and publications for the general Library of the Museum.
This provision for the future development of the Museum Library is
only another instance of Mr. Ayer’s life-long devotion and generosity
to the Museum. In view of the continued interest manifested by
Mr. Ayer in the expansion of the Library and especially on account of
his contributions in money and books to the ornithological section, it
has been decided to name the ornithological Library of the Museum the
“Edward E. Ayer Ornithological Library.”
Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contribution of the sum
of $20,000.00 from the Honorable Charles R. Crane, or so much thereof
as may be necessary to complete the publication of the work being
prepared by the Curator of Zodlogy on ‘‘ The Birds of the Americas.”
The additions to the scientific staff and maintenance forces during
the latter part of the year, having caused a deficit in the available funds
for the operation of the Museum, amounting to $19,755.32, at the
December meeting of the Board, the President announced that Mr.
Marshall Field had volunteered to assume this deficit.
President Field has further contributed the sum of $1,000.00 toward
the publication of a “ Record of the Life of the North American Indian,”
which is to consist of twenty volumes of text and illustrations and
twenty accompanying portfolios of copper plates and photogravures,
with the understanding that the Museum Library is to receive a set of
the work when completed.
The Corporate Members at a meeting held in May, decided to
amend the Articles of Incorporation, so as to provide for an increase
in the Board of Trustees of the Museum from fifteen to twenty-one
members. At this date four of the created vacancies have been filled by
the election of Mr. John Borden, Mr. Albert W. Harris, Mr. Solomon A.
Smith and Mr. James Simpson.
Through the further efforts of President Field to increase the Life
Memberships of the Institution, the following were elected during the
year: J. B. Lord, Thomas W. Hinde, Adolph Nathan, George D.
McLaughlin, Lawrence M. Viles, D. W. Buchanan, Frank O. Wetmore,
Alexander Smith, David M. Yates, Clifford M. Leonard, Frank W.
Porter, Charles H. Schweppe, William Wrigley, Jr., Charles Piez, —

Mr. James Simpson was elected a Patron of the Museum, in recog-
nition of the eminent service he has rendered to the Institution.
Amendments to the By-Laws made during the year have created
two new classes of memberships, Associate Members and Sustaining
Members, and have also provided additional privileges for all classes
of memberships. These privileges are indicated in the revised By-Laws
which will be found in this report. In this connection also, an agreement
has been entered into with other contemporary institutions for an
interchange of courtesies and privileges for Life and Annual Members.
The Board of Trustees had presented for their consideration during
the year a proposal from the South Park Commissioners, asking the
consent of the Trustees to the erection by the Commissioners of a
Stadium, which it is proposed to construct on the south side of the
Museum building and which would encroach one hundred and twenty
feet, approximately, upon the restricted areas, which under the terms
of the contract between the Museum Trustees and the South Park
Commissioners providing a site for the Museum building, it was agreed
should remain free of structures unless otherwise concurred in by the
Museum. After full consideration of the request, the Trustees gave
their consent to the construction of the Stadium as shown on the plans
submitted.
The ordinance under which the South Park Commissioners set aside
a tract of land in Grant Park for the site of the new building, in con-
sideration of which dedication the Institution is to be open free to the
public three days in each week, having been brought to the attention of
the Board of Trustees, it was decided that the Museum should be open
free to the public on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
During the year arrangements were made with the Illinois Central
Railroad to construct a foot-bridge over the tracks of the railroad at
Park Row which would permit foot passage from the Park Row station
platform, or from the Park just outside of the retaining walls east and
west of the tracks, the Museum to assume the cost of the structure.
378 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
This bridge has been completed and has greatly increased the means of
access to the Museum.
The scope of the Stanley Field Museum Employes Pension Fund
has been enlarged by its founder, the execution of an insurance contract
with the Actna Insurance Company covering the lives of the personnel
of the Museum, with the premium paid out of this Fund, having been
authorized. In this contract it is stipulated that continuous service for
one complete year is pre-requisite to securing any insurance and that
the insurance automatically ceases upon the termination of the services
of the insured. Employes, who on February 1, 1920, had not been in °
the service of the Museum for one complete year, automatically become
insured at the conclusion of that period, and are progressively entitled
to increasing benefits as set forth in the schedule adopted. This insur-
ance is without cost to the insured and imposes no obligation not already
attending the services of the employe.
Maintenance. —The sum of $170,200.00 was appropriated by the
Board of Trustees for the necessary expenses of maintenance during
the fiscal year. The cost of maintenance, however, amounted to
approximately $190,000.00, thus creating a deficit. of approximately
$20,000, which, as referred to elsewhere in this report, was contnbuted
by Mr. Marshall Field.
Movina Operations. —The following is a brief summary of the
extent and cost of the transfer of all collections, material and equipment
from the old building in Jackson Park to the new building in Grant
Park.

Comparison of the loading sheets with the unloading sheets both
by rail and truck, shows not one article or object has apparently been
lost or misplaced in the process of the transfer.
Estimated cost of glass moved, at present day prices $753,000.00
Pustications.—During the year one publication was issued, detail
of which follows:
Pub. 205.—Report Series, Vol. 5, No. 5. Annual Report of the Director
for the year 1919. January 1920. 69 pages, 14 halftones,
edition 2,000.
THE Liprary.—Notwithstanding the limitations that existing con-
ditions have imposed, the customary activities of the Library have been
carried on with a fair measure of success. There have been received
by gift, exchange and purchase 1,088 books and pamphlets. The Lib-
rary contains 73,824 books and pamphlets. Cards written and filed
in the catalogues number 6,690. The transfer of the contents of the
library to the new building was accomplished by using cartons, large
wooden containers and motor trucks. The space at present assigned
380 Freco Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
to the office of the Library and the stack room is on the second floor,
- The four departmental libraries are located on the third floor in rooms
adjoining each of the departments. The task of installing the exhibi-
tion halls has employed all assistance available and the work of shelv-
ing the libraries is in abeyance until the stack rooms can be com-
pleted when considerable time and labor will be necessary to reéstablish
the sequence of the original classification. The decision to have all
literature pertaining to the work of the departments placed in their
respective libraries necessitates a number of transfers and until these
transfers are effected and inventories taken it is not possible to ac-
curately state the number of books and pamphlets in each library.
The books of the anthropological and botanical departments have been
placed on the shelves. In the Department of Anthropology discarded
exhibition cases were converted into book cases and used to good
advantage. The library’s generous patron, Mr. Edward E. Ayer, pre-
sented the rare eight volume edition of Audubon’s Birds of North
America. During the year Mr. Ayer caused to be ordered one hundred
and fourteen volumes of ornithological works. Of these eighty-one
volumes have been received, a number of which are rare copies dating
back to 1776, and all are beautifully illustrated. A catalogue of all
the ornithological works in the library is in preparation, at the request
of Mr. Ayer, who has expressed a desire to supplement his already
splendid collection until it provides workers and students with as
complete an ornithological reference library as is obtainable. Gifts,
gratefully received from other sources, are acknowledged as such in the
list of accessions appended to the report. Exchanges were received
from four hundred and ninety-six institutions and individuals. The
first consignment of the publications of the Museum, since pre-war days,
was forwarded during the year to all countries where international
exchange service has been resumed. The continued upward trend of the
cost of all publications very seriously affects scientificliterature. Various
societies that have existed mainly for the publication of the results of
scientific research have had to either suspend publishing for the time
being or discontinue exchange relations and ask for subscriptions to
enable them to continue their work. Five new exchanges were effected
with the following: Federated Malay States Museums, Kuala Lumpur;
Museo de Etnologia y Antropologia de Chile, Santiago de Chile;
Ornithological Society of Japan, Tokyo; Manchester Geographical
Society of England; R. Academia de Ciencias y Artes, Barcelona.
Comparatively few purchases of books have been made as the time of
the staff has been wholly occupied with installation work. Subscrip-
tions were entered for seventy-eight periodicals.

DEPARTMENTAL CATALOGUING, INVENTORYING, AND LaBELING.—During the year
the work of cataloguing in the Department of Anthropology has been
carried on as new accessions were acquired. In the division of Mexican
and South American archeology, the remainder of the Zavaleta collec-
tion, as well as the material from Ecuador and the West Indies received
last year, as an exchange, from the Museum of the American Indian,
New York, has been catalogued. The total number of catalogue cards
prepared amounts to 1,646. These cards are distributed over the
divisions as follows: Southwest, Mexican and South American Arche-
ology 1,501; North American Ethnology 4; Malayan Ethnology 118;
China, Japan and India 16; Near East Archeology and Ethnology 3;
and African Ethnology 4. These cards have been entered in the inven-
tory books of the Department, which now number thirty-eight. The
number of annual accessions amounts to twenty, eighteen of which
have been entered. The total number of catalogue cards entered from
the opening of the first volume amounts to 155,194. A new and vigorous
campaign in label writing and printing was inaugurated during the
last months of the year. The progress made so far has been entirely
satisfactory, numerous new labels having been added to the exhibition
cases. The total number of these labels amounts to 4,139, distributed
as follows: North West Coast 96; New Guinea 870; Mexico and South
America 2,316; Philippines 173; China, Tibet and Korea 442; Ainu
and Siberia 239; Japan 3. There were 393 new label cards added to the
label file. The printer supplied the department with 975 catalogue cards.
As very little new material has been added to the organized collec-
tions in the Department of Botany during the year, on account of the
necessities contingent upon moving, only 231 incidental entries have
been made in the department catalogues, bringing the total entries up
to 482,310. The card indices of the department have been augmented
as follows:

All accessions in the Department of Geology have been fully cata-
logued as received, the largest number appended being obtained by the
addition of the specimens of the Frederick J. V. Skiff collection. In
packing or installing the older collections specimens occasionally were
found which had been overlooked in previous cataloguing, and the
opportunity was improved to record these also. The total number of
entries made during the year was 452. During the installation of the
cases in the new building, all missing or soiled labels have been replaced
as fast as the cases were installed, by new ones. As considerable care
was taken in packing the labels from the old installation so that loss _
or injury should be avoided, the instances where such labels needed
replacement were fortunately few. New labels were also provided
for any specimens added that had not previously been installed, and
the form, wording or size of some of the old labels was changed in
instances where this seemed desirable. The total number of re-installed
cases completely labeled during the year ‘s 70 and the total number of
new labels that have been prepared is 668.
Cataloguing in the Department of Zodlogy during the year was
reduced to that which was absolutely necessary, namely 43 entries in
Mammalogy and 247 in Ornithology. Many exhibition labels have been
prepared, including an entirely new set for the large habitat groups of
mammals.
The following table shows the work performed on catalogues and
inventorying accomplished:

accessions. —The most notable gift of the year in the Department
of Anthropology is the valuable collection of Indian baskets from British
Columbia and California made by Mr. Homer E. Sargent in the course
of fifteen years and presented by him to the Museum. The present
contribution of 342 baskets is merely the first installment; there are
several hundred more to come by next spring. This extensive collection _
comprises excellent and partially old specimens from the Hupa, Pomo,
Paiute, Panamint, Maidu, Mono, Chumashan, Diegeno, Chemehuevi,
Navaho, and other tribes. Mr. Edward E. Ayer presented to the
_ department a kris from the Moro on the Philippines, a Pima basket
from California, several interesting objects from the Tlingit and Eskimo
JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 383
of Alaska, and a Pomo feather headband. Mr. George A. Crofts of
Tientsin, China, remembered the Museum with a gift of two large,
remarkable clay statuettes of the T'ang period (A.D. 618-906), which
have been added to the Blackstone Collection, and are placed on
exhibition in a case of medieval clay figures. The gift of Mr. and Mrs.
Edwin F. Gillette of a set of Japanese dolls for the Dolls’ Festival
(Hina Matsuri) is a distinct addition to the Division of Japanese
Ethnology. The group, illustrated in this Report, consists of a painted
screen and nine dolls representing the emperor and empress of Japan,
the elder and younger ministers of state, and an orchestra of five court-
musicians, exactly as it would appear in a Japanese home on the occasion
of the Dolls’ Festival held each year for the pleasure and instruction of
little girls. Such sets, handed down as family heirlooms, are taken out
of the storehouse annually, carefully unpacked, and displayed for a
week ona series of shelves covered with scarlet cloth. There are gen-
erally arrayed before the dolls miniature pieces of furniture, various
articles for the house reproduced oftentimes in gold lacquer or in porce-
lain, such as tiny tables upon which are placed offerings of food prepared
by the little girls, an act which in itself tends toward promoting a deep
reverence for the emperor and a knowledge of the old court and its
customs. The sixfold screen, which serves as a background, possesses
great merits in color and decoration. Above a stream, near which grow
iris, peonies, and a sturdy pine; a white crane flies downward toward two
others standing on the bank. The golden-flecked clouds and the soft
greens and reds in decoration blend admirably with the brocade cos-
tumes of the dolls immediately in front of the screen. These figures,
made of enameled wood, are modeled with remarkable care, each
expressing a distinct personality. As an illustration of the exactitude
of execution, the hands and wrists of the old minister of state, which
delineate real age, are truly of admirable workmanship. The costumes
are all of brocade, probably a hundred years or more in age, which in
itself is of value for the study of textiles and design. The head-dresses,
of which there are three distinct types, besides the elaborate head-dress
of the empress, are removable and exact copies of the style worn at
court by the various characters here represented. The emperor and
empress sit upon raised platforms, magnificently clothed, each possess-
ing emblems characteristic of their offices. The empress holds a small
folding-fan of wood painted with the favorite decoration of the crane
flying above the pine, bamboo and plum, a combination emblematic of
long life. The emperor, wearing a large sword, holds in his right hand
a flat wooden baton of tablet shape (shaku), generally carried by all
noblemen at the court. The old and young ministers are equipped with
384 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
bows, arrows, and swords. Swords are also thrust in the belt of each of
the five court-musicians, two of whom sit upon lacquered stands while
the other three squat upon the ground. The musical instruments, the
flute, the hand-drum, and flat-drum, are faithfully reproduced in
miniature. Under the auspices of Mr. William Wrigley, Jr., the Museum
entered into an agreement with the Museum of the American Indian
of New York City, for the purpose of organizing an extensive archmwo-
logical survey of Catalina Island on the Californian coast. The under-
standing was that the material resulting from this exploration should
be equally divided between the two institutions. The field-work was
placed in charge of Mr. George G. Heye, Director of the Museum of
the American Indian, and conducted during last summer. As a result
of these excavations, the Museum received from Mr. Heye in November
a large quantity of archzological material, consisting chiefly of pestles,
mortars, and other implements of stone, particularly steatite, bone,
shell, and clay. The collection is thoroughly representative of that
culture-area. In order to make this collection more interesting and to
illustrate some of the adjacent cultures in connection with it, Mr. Heye
added to it as a gift to the Museum a considerable collection from San
Nicholas and San Miguel islands, California, which contains a number
of fine prehistoric shell and bone ornaments.
The notable additions to the herbaria during the year are: the first
installment of the E. T. and S. A. Harper mycologic collection, con-
sisting of about 10,000 specimens; the Santa Catalina Island collections
of C. F. Millspaugh (595) and L. W. Nuttall (946 specimens); Pennell’s
North American (55) and U. S. Colombian (33) Scrophulariacew; Mrs.
Wilcoxson’s Massachusetts plants (95 specimens); Howe’s distribution
of Marine Alge, principally West Indian and Bahaman (146 speci-
mens); Maxon & Killip’s Jamaican Plants (1,128 specimens); E. T. &
S. A. Harper’s Virginia and Massachusetts fungi of 1920 (210 speci-
mens); and Ames’ Bornean Orchids.
Of especial importance among the accessions of the year in the
Department of Geology the Curator of the department reports that
the collection of ores and minerals presented by Dr. Frederick J. V. Skiff
is of especial interest and value. The Curator states: “This collection
contains not only many specimens unique in beauty and rarity, but
also some which since they came from localities from which it would
be impossible, at the present time, to obtain specimens, may be con-
sidered priceless. Series of special interest and value in the collection
are the following: A number of specimens of free gold, especially from
South American localities and specimens of placer gold from Colorado
and Idaho; other gold ores; platinum from the Urals; some fine speci-

mens of amethyst; excellent specimens of turquois, tiger eye’ and
thomsonite; some unique crystals of calcite from Joplin, Mo., show-
ing a new crystal habit; silver ores showing free silver from several
localities; and concentrates from various ores. The total number of
specimens in the collection is 277.’’ Mr. William J. Chalmers presented
for addition to the William J. Chalmers crystal collection a remarkable
pseudomorph of quartz after crystallized spodumene from Greenwood,
Maine. Mr. Chalmers also presented a valuable book of photographs
of the diamond mines at Kimberley, South Africa. This book contains
114 original prints illustrating various phases of the processes of mining
at the Kimberley mines and covering chronologically nearly the entire
history of the mines. The United Verde Company and United Verde
Extension Company of Bisbee, Arizona, and the New Cornelia Copper
Company of Ajo, Arizona, presented full series of the various ores mined
by them and specimens of the associated rocks. These series in connec-
tion with specimens previously presented by the Utah Copper Company,
afford material for fully illustrating the developments which have taken
place in recent years in the utilization of the low-grade copper ores,
usually known as ‘‘porphyry coppers.’”’ Specimens of both leaching
and flotation ores are included in the series. These series all form
important additions to the collection of copper ores. The kind offices of
Mr. William J. Chalmers in assisting in procuring these gifts are grate-
fully acknowledged. A cast of the Yenberrie, Australia, iron meteorite
was presented by the United States National Museum and a full-sized,
polished section of the meteorite was purchased. Dr. A. de Chairmont
presented nine individual aerolites of the Holbrook, Arizona, fall. By
exchange with the University of Chicago a nearly complete skeleton in
matrix of the rare Permian, lizard-like reptile, Varanosaurus, from
Texas, was obtained, also from the same institution and in a similar
way a prepared male skull and dentition of the extinct ungulate
Diceratherium, from the Miocene of Nebraska.
The principal accession in the Department of Zodlogy during the
year was the collection of 676 specimens, chiefly mammals and birds,
obtained by Assistant Curator Osgood and Mr. H. B. Conover on the
expedition to Venezuela of which mention is made elsewhere. Mr.
Conover also presented to the Museum skulls and scalps of one moose
and two caribou from northwest Canada. An important addition to the
exhibition collection of mammals was a mounted giraffe presented by
Mrs. Mollie Netcher Newbury. A collection of 270 salt and fresh water —
fishes from Louisiana was received in exchange from the Southern
Biological Supply Company of New Orleans. The invertebrates re-
ceived during the year consisted of a donation of over 8,800 shells
386 Fiero Mus:um or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
and 49 sea-urchins, starfish, etc., mostly collected by the late Mrs. 4
Fanny Sonshine and presented to the Museum by her daughter, Miss
B. Sonshine. A temporary addition to the Division of Envomology con-
sisted of the twenty-year deposit of the Garry de N. Hough Collection |
of flies, received from the University of Chicago. The value of this
material is mainly due to the fact that it is rich in authentically named
species of certain families of European and North American muscid-like
flies. This collection will prove useful for comparison when naming
some of the Museum material. It will also be helpful to students who )
are interested in the families represented. |
EXPEDITIONS AND FiELD Worx.— Through the generous co-operation of
Mr. H. B. Conover it was possible to make one short but important
expedition during the year. Assistant Curator Osgood, accompanied by
Mr. Conover, left late in January for northwestern Venezuela and
returned to the Museum in the latter part of May. They worked in the
tropical lowlands surrounding Lake Maracaibo and in the Sierra de
Perij4 near the boundary between Venezuela and Colombia. Later
they penetrated the interior south of Lake Maracaibo to the highlands
of the Sierra de Merida, working at various levels up to an elevation of
15,000 feet. The collections and physical data obtained supplement the
results of previous expeditions in an important way and make the
Museum collection of the vertebrates of. this general region the most
comprehensive in existence. In prosecuting this work, the members of
the expedition were greatly assisted by officials of the Caribbean Oil
Company, notably Mr. F. R. Bartlett. They were much indebted also
to Sefior Juan E. Paris, a prominent and public-spirited citizen of
Maracaibo.
INSTALLATION, REARRANGEMENT, AND PERMANENT IMPROvemMENT.—The Depart-
ment of Anthropology was engaged during the first half of the yearin —
packing material for removal to the new building. The method of —
packing adopted proved so efficient that no essential damage was done
to any specimen, whether large or small, during the removal. On moving _—
into the new building in June, the staff put in order and arranged the
offices, work-rooms, store-rooms, and laboratories assigned to the depart-
ment on the third floor. An immense number of crates, boxes, and
packages had been accumulated in Installation Room 34, during moving-
time. These were checked up with the records, sorted, and relegated to
the various sections to which the material belongs. Cabinets for
were placed in work-rooms, several storage racks and seven
tables were made. Hundreds of exhibition cases were stripped of
JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 387
material, numerous crates and boxes were opened, and the material
arranged either for exhibition or study and exchange collections. The
best possible use has been made of the space available on the third
floor. Rooms 65 and 66 are utilized for the storage of East Asiatic
collections. Room 50 contains Japanese material, Room 48 Melanesian
collections, the greater part of which are stored in the Installation Hall,
Room 46 North American archzxology, Room 44 Indian blankets and
baskets, Room 42 Hopi material, Room 43 Southwest, Navaho and
Mission Indians material, Room 40 Mexican and South American
archeology, Room 33 Northwest Coast collections, and Room 34
Malayan material. Exchange material is placed in Rooms 30 and 31.
Room 28 is allotted to study collections. Work on actual installation
of exhibition cases was begun on September 2oth. During this brief
period of three months a total of 249 cases was installed or re-installed.
These cover all sections of the department. The Philippine Hall, 55
cases, with the exception of the large group-cases, the Chinese collec-
tions on the East Gallery Hall of the second floor, 64 cases, save several
large wall cases, and the greater portion of the West Gallery Hall, can
now be reported as being completely installed. Hopeful progress has
been made in the Joseph N. Field Hall (Melanesia), the Mexican and
South American Hall, the Southwest Hall, and the hall allotted to
Egyptian and classical archeology. In the Mexican and South Ameri-
can Hall, nine cases have been newly installed; these illustrate Calchaqui
stone work, ethnology of the Upper Amazon, Brazil, Paraguay, Peru,
and Ecuador, and Maya and Mexican archeology. In every instance,
exhibition material was carefully sifted, and the new arrangement is
considerably improved upon the old system. A special hall, located on
the ground floor along the east side of the building, having been assigned
to the department for the exhibition of primitive means of navigation,
82 boats were placed and arranged in the hall during August. Five
exhibition cases, two illustrating boat-models from China, two with
boat-models and other means of transportation from India and Burma,
and one with similar material from New Guinea, were moved in and
placed at a somewhat later date. When completed this hall will prove an
attractive feature in the building. It was decided to discard from
exhibition all table and upright cases which were found to be no longer
serviceable and hardly in harmony with the character of the new halls.
This step necessitated a complete vacating of these cases containing
large storage bases in which a large quantity of material had been
packed for transportation. This material has been temporarily stored
in Room 45 on the third floor. The Departmental Library has been
completely arranged and set in order in twenty-three cabinets in Room
Mae
388 Frecp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
39. With the co-operation of the departmental staff, the Museum libra-
rians completed this task within a few weeks. As all books pertaining
to anthropology, also those formerly stacked in the main library, are
now assigned to the departmental collection, it was necessary to prepare
a new set of catalogue cards in conformity with this new arrangement,
and the number of the cabinet in which a book is placed has been added
to each card, so that it is possible to promptly locate a volume. The
Bagobo group has been completed and the figure of the Hopi boomerang-
thrower remodeled.
In the Department of Botany the entire staff of the department
proper was employed during the first five months of the year in finishing
preparation for moving into the halls and rooms set aside for it in the
new building. The specimens in all those exhibition cases not prepared
during the closing months of the previous year were secured in place, or
packed in containers, and properly marked and labeled to designate
the position they were destined to occupy. The entire herbaria and all
other material, supplies, appliances, etc., were, in like manner, prepared
for transportation. The month of May and part of June were employed
in superintending the removal of the packed material from the old
building and the placing of the same in position in the new. In Septem-
ber re-installation began both in the exhibition halls and the working
rooms. Since that date the books of the Department Library have
been temporarily shelved and arranged, the phanerogamic herbarium
fully organized, and most of the laboratories at least partly equipped
for work. On account of alterations deemed expedient in the depart-
mental arrangement as originally planned, it became necessary to
change the installation of a large number of cases previously considered
complete. These re-installations have consumed a large amount of
time and rendered re-installation far slower than was expected, setting
back the anticipated completion of the department at least five months.
Contributory to this extra work has been the elements of the unfinished
character of the halls and the dust raised in the work of their completion.
This has caused more cleaning of specimens and repainting of case
interiors than could have been foreseen. In Hall 28 one hundred and
ten case units have been placed. These are devoted entirely to all
those plant families the elements of which are on hand at this time.
The installation will comprise plant reproductions and natural speci-
mens embracing the taxonomy of about 1oo families. Of these 81
are now installed. Hall 27, Foreign Woods: In this hall the cases
have not yet been shifted to their intended position. They will require
comparatively little interior arrangement when once set, as the —
contents are now in place. Hall 26, North American Trees: The ©

cases in this hall are in position. They will require little interior work
done upon them. Halls 25 and 29, Economic Botany: The cases in
these two halls are substantially all placed and 71 units have been
re-installed complete. The herbarium, in its organization, had been
separated into four great divisions: (1) Flowering Plants, completely
organized; (2) Fungi; (3) Cryptogams in General, ferns, mosses, lichens,
hepatics, etc.; (4) Plants of Illinois. Each of these herbaria occupy
contiguous rooms. As the plants of Illinois are more frequently con-
~ sulted by amateurs in botany than those of the general herbaria, it
has been considered best to segregate them, thus securing the main
herbaria against disorganization by untrained botanists. During the
first four months of preparation for moving the Section of Plant Re-
production continued its regular work with but little interruption.
The months of May and June were then utilized entirely in the work
of packing, dismembering, moving and re-establishment in the labora-
tories in the new building. In July the work of the section was again
established, though during the last few months of the year it has been
greatly interfered with through the necessity of utilizing a large part
of the effort of the staff in the re-installation of cases in the exhibition
halls. No damage whatsoever was sustained by the large number of
delicate models and reproductions packed, or secured against the
anticipated rough handling of the cases and packages during trans-
portation. Notwithstanding the large amount of time consumed in
these necessary interruptions to the regular work of the staff, the
section finished the following productions, all of which are now in-
stalled in the exhibit cases of Hall 28: The Fig (Ficus carica). A
natural size branch of the tree in full leaf and fruit; an enlarged section
of the edible fig revealing the numerous flowers enclosed within the
fleshy, hollow receptacle; an enlarged section of the Caprifig with male
and female flowers; an enlarged female flower in section; an enlarged
male flower with its bracteal envelope; an enlarged gall-flower showing
the female caprifying insect emerging; and full descriptive labels
detailing ‘“‘caprification.”” The Seven-year Apple (Casasia clusitfolia).
A small branch of the shrub with fully matured fruit fallaciously said to
“require seven years to ripen.” The Kaffir Orange (Strychnos spinosus).
A flowering and fruiting portion of this shrub of the Strychnine Family.
While nearly all species of this group are virulently poisonous this
particular one develops an edible, spicy fruit. An enlarged flower of
this plant reveals the essential organs characteristic in the family.
Avocadoes or Alligator Pears (Persea Persea): fruits of four charac-
teristic varieties of this delicious “Salad Fruit’ now becoming noticeable
in our markets through its cultivation in southern Florida. The four
390 Frecp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
varieties reproduced are: The West Indian; The Guatemalan; The
Mexican; and a hybrid secured by crossing the Guatemalan and the
Mexican. The Coconut (Cocos mucifera): enlarged male and female
flowers together with a section of the female flower revealing its essential
characters. The Spider Lily (H ymenocallis caribaea): a full size flower-
ing plant. Cotton plant (Gossypium barbadense): an entire plant in full
leaf, flower and ripe boll, natural size; an enlarged flower, in section,
revealing the essential organs. Zamia (Zamia floridana): enlarged
sporophylls and a fruiting cone of this species illustrating the floral
characteristics of the cycads. Mangoes (Mangifera indica): three
varieties of this delicious fruit of the Sumac Family, now being cultivated
for the market in southern Florida: “‘The Mulgoba,” “The Haden,”
and “The Amiri.” A Green Alga (Oedogonium): eight enlargements
illustrating reproduction in this group; whole mass of the plant, mag-
nified; asexual reproduction, the odgonia; the sperm cells; dwarf
males; resting stage, odspore; germination, zodspores; fertilization. A
Green Alga (Ulothrix): four enlargements illustrating this genus: A
piece of a filament, spore formation; swarm-spores, germination; con-
jugation; zygospores. More or less work has also been done on the
following studies now in process of production: Coconut (Cocos muci-
fera); reproduction of a natural size tree top in leaf, full flower and
fruit. Zamia (Zamia floridana); a full size plant of this important
starch-producing cycad, Four-'o-Clock (Mirabilis jalapa); a portion of
a natural size plant and a number of various colored flowers, designed
to illustrate Mendelian principles of heredity. Screw Pine (Pandanus
utilis); reproduction of a portion of the plant, natural size. Pride-of-
India (Melia Azedaracha); an enlarged flower revealing the essential
organs, to illustrate characteristics of the Mahogany Family. Alga
(Bryopsis plumosa); an enlarged tip of a frond.
During the first part of the year packing in the Depariaaael
Geology of all material and cases intended for the new building was —
completed. This included packing of the contents of forty-two exhibi-
tion cases remaining installed at the close of last year, a large quantity
of material belonging to the study collections, furniture and Coa P
of the offices and laboratories of the department and some collectic
and objects that for lack of exhibition space had been stored in the
basement. As noted in a previous report, the nature of nearly all the
specimens in the exhibition cases made it necessary to remove them Trom_
‘these cases in order to put them in a safe condition for t sportatior le
mens were returned to the cases and the cases used as carriers, t
it was found possible to move only three cases and contents withe

removal of the specimens. During the period of packing as a whole
two hundred and eighty exhibition cases were emptied of their con-
tents and all fittings made fast so that there would be no danger of
injury to any part in moving. It is gratifying to report that this work
was so carefully and thoroughly done that with the exception of one
case which failed owing to faulty construction, no cases or contents
suffered any breakage of glass or other marked injury during the moving
to the new building and placing in position there.
One of the most difficult specimens to prepare for moving was the
skeleton of the large dinosaur. Because of its great weight and fragile
nature this could not be transported as a whole. It was therefore
necessary to disarticulate the skeleton and handle each bone as a unit.
The leg bones and most of the pelvic bones were crated separately
without additional reinforcement. The foot bones and the smaller
bones of the tail were separated and packed in tight boxes. The ribs
required additional strengthening. Each rib was first wound spirally
with tough paper to protect its finish. It was then covered with plaster
and burlap, as fossils are treated for shipment from the field. In turn
each rib was further reinforced by means of iron rods, either bent to
conform co the outline or extending across the arc as a chord. The
entire series was then crated. The vertebrae were handled singly.
Before removing from their position on the frame-work the spines and
lateral processes were braced by means of light, iron rods. These braces,
extending from each centrum to the lateral processes and thence to the
crest of the spine of each vertebra, were attached by the use of plaster.
This done, the screws holding each vertebra to the steel frame-work
were removed, leaving the immediate support attached to the specimen.
The vertebrae were then placed separately on light, wooden frame-
works which acted as temporary bases, and were firmly anchored to
them in an upright position by means of wires attached to the four
corners of the base and drawn tightly through the neural canal. The
vertebrae were then placed, two each, in wheeled carriers padded at
the bottem to protect from jar. Each vertebra was firmly attached to
the bottom of the carrier by means of long screws driven through the
temporary base. By the use of all these means the entire skeleton was
well mrotected and was transported to the new building with compara-
tive] v little breakage. The steel framework on which the skeleton was
installed was unbolted and moved as lengths of structural steel and
the wooden base above the frame-work was taken apart and carefully
crated for transportation.
The safe transportation of the large fulgurite also presented a some-
what difficult problem. The specimen is an exceedingly irregular hollow
3902 Fisrtp Museum or Natvrat History — Reports, Vor. V.
tube about nine feet long and an inch in diameter, with walls of about —
the thickness and strength of an egg shell. This had been mounted on
hangers which held it about six inches from the back of its case. In order
to move this specimen with its supporting wooden rod it was placed ina
horizontal position in a special packing case. It was then well wrapped
with paraffined tissue paper and a thin fin of tow and plaster was built up
from an anchorage on the packing case floor to the specimen, supporting
it throughout its entire length. At intervals of perhaps a foot, a narrow
ring of tow and plaster was also passed around the specimen to connect
it securely to the fin. The paraffined tissue not only prevented staining
by the plaster but also checked any adhesion of the plaster or dovetailing
to any rough portions of the specimen. Protected in this manner the
specimen was safely to the new building and after unpacking
to the new building was contained in 226 barrels, 1,086 large boxes and
crates and several thousand small boxes and cartons. Packing, trans-
portation and unpacking of this material was accomplished with prac-
tically no loss whatever from breakage or other injury,a fact which gives
proof of the care with which the packing and handling was done. The
large skeleton of the Northern Mammoth presented to the Museum some
years ago by Mr. George Manierre and temporarily housed at the Chi-
cago Academy of Sciences through the courtesy of that institution, was
also transferred to the new building.
In order to facilitate placing of the exhibition cases in the new
building, installation numbers were given to each hall of the portion of —
the building assigned to the department and to each alcove im each
hall. The cases designated for these alcoves were then correspondingly
marked, so that on arrival at the new building each case was taken
directly to its assigned alcove. Before installation all the glass of all the
cases was cleaned, the wood-work of the exteriors was refinished and
that of the interiors repainted. Any injuries to the exterior wood-work
of the cases that were too deep to be rubbed out, were carefully chiseled
out and new wood inserted and the whole refinished in such a manner as
to restore the cases to their original appearance. The cases forming the
sides of the alcoves were carefully fitted to one another in such a manner
as to make the line of joining as narrow and inconspicuous as possible —
and they were then securely fastened together. A greater rigidity and
stabibty of the cases was thus gained, and a pleasing appearance of the
JAN., 1921. Awnvat Report oF THE Drrecror. 393
these were thoroughly overhauled and stout fastenings provided. Also,
from fourteen of the cases in Frederick J. V. Skiff Hall the burlap linings
which had become torn and discolored from long usage, were removed
and new, freshly dressed linings substituted. Blocks numbering 2,600
used for mounting individual specimens and various other mounts used
in this hall were also repainted and the shelves of many of the cases
were braced with strong wooden supports so as to guard agaist possible
breakage of the shelves from the weight of spectmens. A large number
of other supports or fixtures, such as easels, frames, pedestals, etc., used
in this and other halls of the department were also repamted.
The space assigned for the exhibriion cases of the department m
the new building consists of five halls on the second floor of the western
section of the building. Four of these halls, 180 ft. by 42 it., m dmmen-
sion, have their greatest length in an east and west direction and one,
317 ft. by 48 it., has a principal north and south range. Of the four halls
extending east and west, that on the north side of the buildmg con-
tains the systematic collection of mmerals, the meteorite collection and
part of a collection illustrating physical geology. The systematic
mineral collection occupies the eastern half of the hall. It is mstalled
im 32 cases, 16 of which are of a slopmg-top type and 16 of a tall, upright
type. The cases are arranged on either side of the hall so as to form
alcoves, each alcove except the first being bounded by a tall case on each
side and containing a sloping-top case in the center. Each alcove is
twelve feet deep and including the side cases, fourteen feet wide. Each
is lighted by a pair of windows at one end. The sides of the alcoves are
made by the tall cases being placed at night angles to the length of the
hall, one end of each resting against a pilaster of the wall between the
windows. A broad, middle aisle sixteen feet in width permits free passage
through the center of the hall. The mimeral collection is arranged m
these cases according to the order of Dana’s system, a number on the
label of each specimen showing the position of the specimen im the sys-
tem. For the most part, the large specimens are shown m the tall cases
at the sides of the alcoves and the smaller specimens in the lower, central
year, the specimens-bemg for the most part mstalled m the positions
and cases which they had occupied in the old building, but some altera-
tions necessitated by changes of orientation of the cases were made. The
total number of specimens now on display m this collection 1s 4,476.
In the re-installation of all the collections of the department, the system
of marking described in a previous report, by which the position of each
specimen in installation was indicated by a label wrapped with the
specimen, proved of great assistance in securing rapid and accurate
394 Frecp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
placing of the specimens. Following this collection, two cases of a
combined upright and flat form are devoted to the William J. Chalmers
crystal collection and two similar cases contain collections illustrating
varieties of amber and ornamental objects carved from semi-precious
stones. Following these, six large oblong cases, three square cases and
two narrow, upright cases contain the meteorite collection. In the square
cases are placed large, single specimens of the Davis Mts., Long Island
and Brenham falls, respectively, while the remaining meteorites which
are exhibited are to be disposed on pyramids or shelves in the other
cases. The remainder of the hall is devoted to four upright cases
arranged in alcove form containing collections of concretions and
septaria, and specimens illustrating glacial phenomena, weathering, ete.
Two large, glaciated slabs from Kelley Island and Amherst, Ohio, are
to be installed on individual bases in opposite alcoves in connection with
this series. In the next hall south there have been placed at the east end
eight upright cases. These are to contain the collections illustrating
various rock structures, such as dikes, veins, cave formations, rock
markings, etc. These cases are arranged in alcove form disposed in a
manner similar to that already described for the cases containing the
systematic mineral collection. A case devoted to large gypsum crystals
and one containing a fulgurite nine feet in length are also placed in this
hall. Following these, eight sloping-top cases are devoted to the collec-
tion of systematic petrology. Each specimen in these cases is mounted
on an individual block screwed to a pyramidal screen. The installation
of this collection is complete, 872 specimens being now on display. The
remainder of this hall extending eastward is to be devoted to the exhibi-
tion of the map collection, consisting of about seventy-five relief and
other maps, also globes and other geographic material. The maps are
to be exhibited on tables which are to be arranged in positions similar
to those of the cases which form the alcoves in other halls of the depart-
ment. The maps have been unpacked and partially placed, but have ~
not yet been finally installed. The following hall south contains collec-
tions of an economic character, chiefly of coal, petroleum and other
hydrocarbons, and sands, clays and soils. Of these collections, those of
the first group will occupy the eastern half of the hall, those of the
second group, the western half. The eastern half is installed according
to the alcove plan, similar to that adopted in the department as a
whole, eighteen upright cases forming nine alcoves. In these alcoves

tar products. A model of the original Rockefeller oil refinery which,

from lack of space has not been shown for some years, will be placed in
another alcove. In the sixteen-foot center aisle two table cases four by
six feet in size are placed. These contain the diamond and part of the
asphalt exhibits. Against the south wall of the hall and adjacent to the
passage southward, a large section of an Australian coal seam will be
placed. In the western half of the hall the installation is composed
chiefly of table cases. As these do not readily lend themselves to a true
alcove arrangement, distribution of the cases in a manner consistent
with the alcove plan of the rest of the hall has been adopted. The cases
are placed in pairs, each pair extending from the windows toward the
center of the hall. There is left a twelve-foot center aisle and a narrower
passage between the cases of each pair. The arrangement is broken in
one place to give space for a diagrammatic collection of clays which
requires a linear arrangement of four cases. Beyond this installation of
twenty-two table cases at the extreme west of the hall, two square
cases containing large specimens have been placed, and bordering the
west wall an upright case and a large model of an iron mine. The
specimens in the hall as a whole transferred from installation in the
old building are to be re-installed in the same cases and with the
same arrangement as before. There will also be added, however,
many specimens which had been withdrawn from exhibition for several
years on account of lack of room. The entire coal collection is one
group of such material and substantial additions will also be made to
the exhibited collections of clays, sands and soils. The most southerly
of the halls of the department has been named Frederick J. V. Skiff
Hall. The hall contains the principal economic collections of the
department. It includes the ores of the precious and base metals,
building stones and marbles and a part of the collection of non-metallic
minerals of economic importance. The cases in the hall are arranged
according to the alcove plan, broken for a space midway of the hall
by the substitution of tall, square cases for the long, upright cases
which outline the regular alcoves. These square cases are so disposed,
however, that the general alcove effect is retained. A center aisle
fourteen and a half feet wide has been left unobstructed through the
entire length of the hall. The predominant type of cases used in the
installation of the hall is that of those which form the sides of the
alcoves. These are materially different in form from those employed
in any other hall. They are designed to keep the specimens as near the
eye of the spectator as possible even at sacrifice of capacity. They are
seven feet high, and at a height of two feet from the floor the exhibition
space is extended forward in a horizontal bay which not only keeps the
396 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
specimens nearer the eye, but also affords room for larger specimens and
those that should be examined from above. The length of the cases is
twelve feet, except for six which measure fourteen feet. Each alcove
is outlined by two of these cases, one being placed on each side of a
window. The cases stand with one end against the wall and extend
toward the aisle in the center of the hall. Including the side cases,
each alcove is fourteen feet wide, the open space in the center being
four feet narrower. On the south side of the hall, the alcoves are twelve
feet deep. On the north side they are fourteen feet deep. In the center
of each alcove one or two table cases, four by six feet, are placed. Mid-
way of the hall, opposite the passage connecting with the next hall to
the north, the character of the alcoves is varied, the principal change
being the replacement of some of the long cases by two tall cases, four
feet square. These cases are glazed on all sides, except the base, and
contain massive specimens and materials of special character. There
are twenty-six alcoves in the hall as a whole and they contain forty-two
twelve-foot and forty-four other cases. The ores of the heavy metals
and the building stone collections are for the most part re-installed in
their original cases and in their original positions in the cases. The
exigencies of re-installation have compelled some changes, but they are
relatively few. The addition of two cases against the east wall has made
possible the re-display of a case and a half of ores which had been
withdrawn from exhibition for a number of years on account of lack of
space. Except for the building stones and alkalies, that part of the
non-metallic economic collections which appears in upright cases in this
hall has been transferred to cases of a different type from those formerly
used. This has made some re-arrangement necessary, owing to the differ-
ent capacities of the two types of cases, and withdrawal of some of the
material has been unavoidable, but for the most part the original
arrangement of the specimens has been retained. It was necessary to
spend much time and labor in cleaning the specimens of ores. The
method employed has been first to remove the dust by use of a vacuum
cleaner, then to wash and dry the specimens. As water alone or soap —
and water was found not to attack a sooty coating which had sometimes
formed through exposure to a smoky atmosphere, and as the more corro-
sive detergents could not be used, some care in selecting a suitable cleans-
ing agent was found imperative. Satisfactory results were, however,
secured by use of cold water containing a moderate quantity of carbonate ©
of ammonia. As the collections in this hall are now arranged, there are
shown at the east end and extending from the east entrance about half
way down the hall, the ores of the precious and base metals. These are
arranged in the order of the installation employed in the old building;
JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR, 397
first, synoptic collections of gold, silver and lead minerals and ores and
secondly, collections of these ores geographically arranged. Platinum
ores occupy one table case at the head of the series. The gold, silver and
lead collections are followed by ores of the other metals with the speci-
mens geographically arranged under each metal. Interspersed with
these ores at convenient points are placed models illustrating methods
of mining and of extracting the metals from the ores. The metallurgy
of some of the more important metals is also illustrated by specimens.
Following the ore collections are placed those of the building stones and
marbles. These are shown in the form of polished slabs in upright cases
and of four-inch cubes in table cases. To them are added specimens of
materials adapted to ornamental uses cut in forms intended to display
their fitness for such uses. The western end of the hall is filled with a
variety of minerals of economic interest, including mica, asbestos, and
abrasive materials, and at the extreme end the alkali collections are
placed. The western hall, which is the largest of the exhibition halls of
the department, is devoted to the paleontological collections. This
hall, as already stated, is 48 feet in width and 317 feet in length. Its
size and proportions have enabled a unique installation of the paleonto-
logical collections to be made, the most important feature being that it
has been possible to place all the collections in the hall in chronological
order. Thus an epitome of the history of life upon the earth, beginning
with the remains of living forms of the earliest period and passing in
order to the life of Recent time is presented to the observer. The
characteristic fossils or life forms of any particular period can be seen in
whatever portion of the hall corresponds in position to the place of the
period in time, or the course and development of life as a whole can be
studied. The earlier forms have been placed at the south end of the hall,
and from this point the progression in time advances to the north end.
Introductory to the series, two cases contain, one a collection illustrating
methods of fossilization and the other a collection showing contrasting
forms of ancient and modern plants and animals. As in the other
halls of the department, the cases in this hall are arranged to form
alcoves, the sides of the alcoves being made by upright cases twelve
feet in length by eight feet in height and usually two feet in depth. Two
of these placed back-to-back with ends resting against the pilasters
which separate the windows of the hall form the alcoves. Within these
alcoves for the most part, single sloping-top cases designed for specimens
which require close inspection are placed. These cases occupy a floor
space of four by five feet each, leaving an aisle three feet wide between
them and the sides of the alcoves and four feet wide between them and
the windows. Occasionally the alcove space is doubled or trebled in
398 Frerp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
order to permit the placing of large objects. The upright cases as a rule
contain large specimens, slab mounts and single skeletons. Altogether
twenty-two alcoves of this form have been placed in the hall. A central
aisle, twenty-two feet in width, passes through the hall between the
alcoves, and this is utilized to some extent for the exhibition of large
mounts, such as those of the two dinosaurs Apatosarus and Triceratops,
the cast of the Megatherium skeleton and some single cases. The in-
stallation of all cases in the hall, numbering sixty-six, has been essen-
tially completed. In general, the specimens were placed in the cases in
the same order and positions which they had occupied before removal,
but wherever some improvement in sequence or appearance could be
made this was carried out. The precaution which had been adopted to ©
secure the safe transportation of some of the more fragile material, such,
especially, as wrapping dinosaur and other bones with paper and cover-
ing them with burlap and plaster, proved on unpacking to have been
very successful, practically no breakage having occurred and the
appearance of the specimens not having been injured. This was espe-
cially gratifying in the case of the large Triceratops skull, the thin,
expanded bones of which were exceedingly fragile. The specimens yet
to be installed in this hall are chiefly large and massive ones, such as the
great dinosaur, Apatosaurus, the skeletons of the mastodon and mam-
moth and some large casts. The iron frame-work for the dinosaur has ,
been assembled but the erection of the specimen upon it has not yet
been accomplished. The energies of the staff were devoted so largely
to installation, that little opportunity was available for work upon the
study collections or in the laboratories. The study collection of syste-
matic minerals has, however, been placed in trays, labeled and arranged
in order in drawers contiguous to the exhibit series. Work in the
laboratories has largely been confined to repairs upon specimens, but
in the early part of the year opportunity was found to remove from
matrix and prepare for exhibition two large ribs, nine feet in length,
of the type specimen of Brachiosaurus. This material, as it came from
the field, is in so fragmentary a condition, that the task of preparing it
is a difficult and tedious one, but the unique character of the material
makes its preservation highly important.
In the Department of Zodlogy, the year was devoted almost ex-
clusively to the work in connection with the removal to the new building.
Packing continued until April and was followed by the period of actual
moving during which members of the staff, office, and taxidermists’
force were assigned to specific tasks in checking the pieces out of the old —
building and into the new and in giving special care to such material —
as required it. The entire collections of the department were moved —

without serious damage. The smaller exhibition cases were transported
intact with specimens of light weight zm situ securely fastened to the
shelves or to the floor. Even the extensive osteological exhibits traveled
largely in this way, although small skeletons and crania were specially
packed in cartons and very large ones were crated. Heavy material, as
corals and other fragile invertebrates, was removed from the cases and
packed in boxes, cartons, and barrels. Exhibition cases of medium size
(more than 4 feet in width) were transported after removal of all or
part of the glass and with the specimens covered with a temporary
protecting cloth. In this way certain habitat groups, as the hyaenas
and warthogs, were handled simply and successfully. Very large cases,
including many of the habitat groups, as moose, mountain sheep, koodoo,
zebra, etc., required the complete dismantling of the case and the dis-
memberment of the group, the animals being placed individually on
special temporary bases and the ground work and accessories being
divided and crated. The African elephants, after removing the head of
the one mounted with its trunk elevated, were placed on an open flat-
car and came through without mishap. The study collections of mam-
mals and birds packed in original containers offered no difficulty.
Fishes and reptiles in glass jars, which were wrapped in corrugated
cardboard and packed tightly in cartons, suffered no breakage what-
ever. Even pinned insects, which were subjected to much vibration, show
no injury sofar as examined. Since removal to the new building steady
progress has been made in the re-installation of the exhibition material.
The first hall to be finished was the west colonnade (George M. Pullman
Hall) which has been devoted to ungulate mammals, the deer, antelope,
sheep, goats, and wild oxen. These are mostly game animals of con-
siderable popular interest and have been arranged to form a unit with
allowance for slight expansion in the future. The hall of systematic
mammals followed and then that of systematic birds and the habitat
groups of birds. A number of groups of African mammals also were
completely installed before the end of the year. Over two months were
devoted to the re-installation of the shell exhibit. Besides re-installing
the shells which were on exhibition in the old building, good progress
has also been made on the installation of the four new A-cases that had
not been in use heretofore. In order that there should be uniformity in
color of all the shell tablets and labels, it was decided to blacken the
edges of the yellow shell tablets and to reprint all of the buff-colored
labels in the six so-called table cases. Some progress has also been made
in the installation of the sponge and coral exhibit. There have now been
re-installed and completed twelve A-cases of shells and two standard
cases of sponges and corals. Several other cases also are far advanced
400 Fretp Museum or Natvurat History — Reports, Vor. V.
toward completion. All of the skeletons have been unpacked and four
cases have been installed and two are under way. The large skeletons
are being installed on bases in the exhibition halls.
THe N. W. HARAatS PuBUC SCHOOL EXTENSION OF FIELO MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY.
—At the end of the present year there were 677 cases available for
circulation among the public schools of Chicago. Of this number, thirty-
one were prepared during the year. This is a falling off from the previous
annual production of cases for circulation. This decrease in cases pre-
pared is attributed to causes which the department could not avert.
The principal causes were the resignation of an assistant taxidermist,
and the transfer of a preparator to another department. Another cause
was the abandonment for several weeks of practically all productive
work for preparations necessary for the removal from the old building
to the new one, and the installation there of fixtures for office and
work-rooms. The removal of the department to the new building was
accomplished largely by the use of the delivery truck, and without the
loss of a day in the delivery of cases to schools. Rather than increase
the production of cases by sacrificing past standards, the usual care
with the details of each was employed. When arranging the schedule
for the loaning of cases to schools during the scholastic year of 1920-1921,
the latest issue (1919-1920) of the Directory of the Public Schools of
the City of Chicago was used. In this directory the names and
addresses of 23 high, and 255 main elementary schools were given.
In compliance with a formal request made last year that cases be also
loaned to high schools, seventeen were included in the present operating
loan schedule. For the reason that six of the listed high schools have
technical courses, cases are not loaned to them. Cases are loaned to
253 main elementary schools. Because of the great distances to two of
the main elementary schools, and of road conditions met with by the
motor truck in delivering cases to them, they have been, it is hoped,
only temporarily deprived of the uses of the loan cases. In addition to
making loans to the 253 main elementary schools, cases are also
loaned to 18 branches of elementary schools. Besides the 288
schools, made up of 17 high, 253 main elementary and 18 branch
elementary schools, which are scheduled to receive cases, there are other
schools to which cases are loaned when requested to do so. These are
the practice, continuation and parental schools. Based on information
received from the office of the Superintendent of Schools as to the num-_
ber of pupils attending public schools, it is confidently believed that
cases will be loaned during the present scholastic year to schools having -
a combined enrollment of fully 344,000 pupils. This estimate is com
JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 401
posed of 316,000 pupils of elementary and of 28,000 of high schools.
In response to a formal request made by the Boys’ Work Secretary of
the Young Men’s Christian Association for the loan of cases to that
association’s summer school, at 1621 Division Street, several cases were
sent. That these cases proved to be of educational value and interest
is evident, for, from the same source there came a subsequent request
for cases, but in this instance it was asked that cases be loaned period-
ically throughout the year. This request is being complied with, and
in doing so care has been and will be taken to prevent any interference
with service to the public schools. The Supervisor of the Children’s
Department of the Chicago Public Library requested the loan of six
cases of birds for the purpose of exhibiting them for a short time at the
Public Library, to stimulate interest in books on birds. The cases were
loaned, and it was reported that they rendered the service for which they
were solicited. This year, as has been done during the past two years,
twenty-four cases were on exhibition in the Art Gallery of the Municipal
Pier during the months of July and August.
Mrs. Charles L. Hutchinson, President, Chicago Chapter, Wild
Flower Preservation Society of America, asked that four cases be dis-
played at the annual exhibition held under the auspices of that society,
at the Art Institute from the 6th to the 22nd of January 1920. This
request was granted, as was a subsequent one for six cases for the same
purpose, and at the same place from December 18th 1920 to January
18th 1921. In connection with a request for the temporary use of
several cases for the purpose of rendering service in establishing a
system of loaning cases to schools in St. Paul, Minnesota, the curator
of the museum of Saint Paul Institute in that city wrote:—‘‘ While
visiting the Field Museum some time ago, I was greatly impressed with
the educational value of your school cases. The fact that they can be
circulated through the various schools from time to time gives them
added value.”’ It is regretted that this request could not, at that time,
be granted. The President of the San Diego Society of Natural History
stated in a communication that a considerable donation had been made
to that society for the purpose of popularizing natural history, especially
in the schools of San Diego and, having seen this department’s exhibit
at the Panama-Pacific Exposition, he would like to have such data as
would assist in establishing a similar system. It has since been learned
that the museum of this society will build a number of small cases for
containing birds, minerals, plants, etc., to loan to schools, as part of
its educational work. Having in view the prospect of the U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture aiding rural communities on subjects pertaining to
agriculture, Professor Frank Lamson-Scribner, Special Agent and
402 Fretp Museum or Naturat History — Reports, Vor. V.
Agrostologist of that department, and two of his departmental asso-
ciates, conducted a careful examination of a great many loan cases,
and made many inquiries as to methods employed in loaning and in
recording them.
After having made a most careful inspection of many cases of
natural history subjects, Doctor Paul Bartsch, Curator, Division of
Marine Invertebrates, U.S. National Museum, stated in a communica-
tion to this department: “I wish there might be some way to actually
determine the amount of good enterprises of this kind bring about. To
me it seems the very foundation of things. I am sure that the citizens
of Chicago will show much greater interest in outdoor studies, anda
much closer touch with nature, than other citizens where such workis
not undertaken. These youngsters do grow up so quickly, and it will |
only be a little while until the children that have had the benefit of your
efforts will become parents who will rejoice with the little ones for the
opportunity you give them. . .”
PHOTOGRAPHY AND ILLusTRATION.—A large part of the year was spent
by this section in packing negatives, lantern slides and photographic
apparatus for transportation to the new building and in unpacking and
arranging negatives and lantern slides after the removal so as to be
readily accessible when required. The following is a tabulation of the
work performed in this section:
