ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 381 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: No. of Cards Augmented 1920 Total Seen te Botanical Species 2) ye 4,585 156,618 Beeem-se Gommon Names, 2). eh a 76 20,375 Pn uCahaAt Plants: ici se RW Shia, 5 6,367 MMENTO FUUDOOTDIAC fk ee ve 7 4,232 apex to Department Labels . . . . . . 36 3,136 Index to Geographic Localities . . . . . 0).

V. 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.

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- “JOBJUL PaTOAVI} 1OYJO oY} !peoy 9yy Jo [PAOUIeI posinbes usutoeds auQ_ “ONIGTING MAN OL LISNVYL NI SLNVHd37q NVOIYSV *XIXX1 3LV1d ‘SLYOd3uy “AYOLSIH IWHNLVYN 4O WNASNW 14314 JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 385 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 © “ONIGIING MAN OLNI CIHSYVIN SdO1T1Y) SLVINONA, LONILX4 40 NOLAISXS GALNNOW SNIAOW *XXX1 3LV1d ‘SLYOd3Y “AYOLSIH TVYNLVYN JO WNASNW O1314 JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 389 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.

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 and adjacent to them ten table and other low cases are placed, and in one double-spaced alcove a large case containing an exhibit of coal- tar products. A model of the original Rockefeller oil refinery which, “QOBVJUL UOLPL][LISUL YIM OSV COTYIGIYX JOOJ-oATOMY BUTADAUOD AVI JOMO'T “ONIGIING GIO ‘YOO14 NIVW OL SAIYSTIVS Yaddf WOYS AVMWVEL ALIAVYS XXxX17 3LW1d *“SLYOd3uy “AYOLSIH IWHNLYN JO WNASNW Q13l4 JAN., 1921. ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 395 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 — ‘ FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY. REPORTS, PLATE LXXxXiIl. NATAL PLUM. (Carissa grandtflora.)

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR. 399 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.
