JUILLIARD TRUSTEE I898 TO I9QIQ FIFTY-FIRST ANNUAL REPORT To the Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History and to the City of New York trie COMING RI Ia YEAR'S BY President HENRY FAIRFIELD OSBORN “Upon the subject of Education, not presuming to dictate any plans or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we, as a people, can be engaged in.’ —Lincoln’s First Public Speech, March oth, 1832. Our fiftieth annual report (1869-1918) was chiefly retro- spective. The development of the Museum since its foundation was seen to coincide with the period in which man! has learned that he is a part of nature, that his spiritual, moral and physical welfare depends on obedience to natural laws; that from the religious point of view natural laws are divine laws. The American Museum was founded for an educational purpose clearly expressed in our Charter of 1869: “FOR THE PURPOSE OF ESTABLISHING AND MAIN- TAINING IN SAID CITY A MusEUM AND LIBRARY OF NaTurRAL History; OF ENCOURAGING AND DEVELOP- ING THE STUDY OF NATURAL SCIENCE; OF ADVANC- ING THE GENERAL KNOWLEDGE OF KINDRED SUBJECTS, AND TO THAT END OF FURNISHING POPULAR INSTRUC- TION.” We are developing this kind of education along many old and many new lines. Rather than theories or hypo- i In 1863 was ,published Lyell’s great work “The Geological Evidences of the Antiquity of Man.” In 1871 appeared Darwin’s ‘‘Descent of Man 17 18 Report of the President theses, we aim to present clearly the facts of nature and let these facts tell their own story and exert an influence more convincing than that of precepts or of books. During the coming fifty years we hope to continue this kind of education and to do it still more widely and effec- tively. In view of its future great possibilities we regard nature-education as still in its infancy. We have new ideas and plans for this larger work, we have the intelligence and the sense of public responsibility, but to go ahead we must have more space and more means. Our fifty-first annual report is regretfully opened with the statement that the Museum as a whole is now going back- ward, not forward. It is like a grown man Museum confined in the clothing of a youth. While cone progress is being made in many directions, it is not Symmetrical, and in order to secure an harmonious educational treatment and to arrange truth- fully our present collections, the Museum needs double the space which it now occupies. It is fifteen years since the building has been enlarged and during this time our col- lections have nearly doubled. This is not said in criticism or complaint of anyone. The Board of Estimate and Apportionment of the City has recently manifested its con- fidence in the institution by increasing the annual main- tenance fund fifty per cent.; the Trustees and friends of the Museum have been most generous both in gifts and be- quests; the Board of Education is also in friendly coopera- tion with our school work. The fact that we are now going backward is owing, first, to the unprecedented growth of our collections, second, to the actual lack of available building funds by the City, and, third, to the interruption by the war of building extension through the personal subscriptions of the Trustees which was planned in 1913. This movement was well under way and would have given us a SOUTHEAST WING (ASIATIC HALL) and COURT BUILDING (HALL OF OCEAN LIFE) had not the war come on. ee oar ‘Udogs() pjoyare,y Asuo;y JUapIserg JO Uorjd91IG eq} dopuy) UML ISO) Pout el IEE AMUSIPUSIG| 3 IaItd 84} #epus) Gi SION ‘NOLSONIAIT GNV aANGIMEMONL, + LSTA “LNFONTA NHOf Ad ACOLS AVMMUAVd WOASOWYALNI GNV TVINOWAN LIAAASOOY dasodoud ee Pie LAS WIHOWSW IISASSOON GASOdOud Ly New York has a Unique Educational Plant 19 The Museum is not alone in its need. The whole educa- tional system of New York City and State has suffered in the same way and from the same causes. The conditions are nation-wide, and a situation has arisen where we are compelled to take a very large and constructive view of the future. The question of the hour in everyone’s mind is Americanization, and the wisest people are those who see that Americanization is to be accomplished only through the spiritual, moral, mental and physical training of our youth according to American ideals. Education is a great deal more than the three R’s. So far as we are concerned, it is inspiration as well as information; it is instruction in local history, in geography and geology, in travel, in climatic laws, in simple economics, in all that concerns health of mind and body, in all branches of natural history, in all that living nature has to tell our youth. Let us consider the Museum not by itself but as a part of the educational system of a city destined to be the greatest and we trust the most enlightened in the world. NEW YORK HAS A UNIQUE EDUCATIONAL PLANT EDUCATION is the chief function of our City govern- ment. On education the largest sums of money are ex- pended, amounting during 1919, directly and Educational indirectly, to $60,263,757.48. Our great educa- Facilities : : of New York ‘tional plant includes free schools, colleges, libraries, museums, scientifically arranged parks and aquaria, free lectures and free concerts, designed for instruction and inspiration. The combined attendance of the schools and colleges in 1919 was 875,327. The com- bined attendance of the museums, public library, scientific parks and aquaria was 10,654,881. Everyone who comes learns something. Some persons learn a great deal. Their reading, their thoughts, their imaginations take new and better channels. These figures are unprecedented and unique. No city in the world has ever been able to offer 20 Report of the President to its people such free educational opportunities, on the whole so well conducted, so orderly, so influential. Thoroughly democratic in operation, these institutions are open at all times, with only reasonable restrictions, to people of all classes—they are planned on a scale com- mensurate with a city destined to be the leading city of the world. This is the bright side of our educational system, namely, the opportunity which the City now offers, and its appreciation by the people. The undeveloped side is, first, that in none of these institu- tions is the connection with the schools as close or as penetrating as it should be; second, that all these institu- tions are short of funds to build, equip and maintain them- selves, and to pay adequate salaries to teachers who are devoting their lives to them. We regard curators and librarians as educators no less important than the teachers in our schools. The physical condition of many of our schools is disgraceful. It is a question whether the bad example of crowded and unsanitary surroundings does not in many schools offset the zeal and earnestness of the teachers. AVSEPARATE SCHOOL TAXS NECESSARY In round numbers it costs twice as much to build schools and other educational buildings; it costs twice as much to equip and to maintain them; it costs twice as much to properly pay the teachers as it did ten years ago. This is a situation which must be met sooner or later by doubling both the expenditures and the revenues devoted to education. Where is this money to be found: twice the money which has been ex- pended hitherto? In our opinion this should not be found by placing a heavier burden solely on the existing tax- payers, which, under our present system, constitute only one-tenth of our entire population’. This is an aristo- Cost of Education i In 1919 there were 578,043 taxpayers in the City of New York, out of a total estimated population of 6,746,000. A Separate School Tax Necessary 21 cratic means of paying for education which has grown out of the originally democratic method of imposing a tax on everyone who possessed a house, a home or lands. This system arose from the first school educational tax, imposed in Massachusetts in 1646, when practically everyone was a householder. To-day in seventeen states there is an educational poll tax. We should have such a tax in this State. It would interest all people in education. It would make them more keen about the administration of the schools, more insistent that they should be kept free from all influences except those making for the greatest welfare of the young. The American Museum in 1917 took a leading part (see Forty-ninth Annual Report of the President, under the head- ing Patriotism and Public Education, pages 19 to Repeal of 24), in the movement which led to the repeal of BEAR t the iniquitous law passed by the Congress of the United States on September 8, 1916, taxing all bequests, legacies, devises and gifts for education, phil- anthropy and religion in equal measure with expenditures for industry and for luxury. This tax fortunately was repealed in time to save intact for educational purposes in the United Statesmithe /Superb’ | bequests) of Andrew, (Carnegie: of Margaret Olivia Sage and of Henry Clay Frick. We are now prepared to throw our entire support in favor of a tax or of some other method which will give the muni- cipal authorities of the City of New York suffi- Separate cient funds to erect, equip and maintain its Tax for : é Laas Basestien various educational buildings, as well as to pay adequately its great corps of teachers. We believe that the Mayor and the Board of Estimate of the City of New York are deeply interested in the education of our children and will support a well-considered movement to secure adequate funds for education, provided it can be shown that this movement is in the interest of the 900,000 children of our public schools. The present Governor of 22 Report of the President the State of New York and the Members of the Senate and Assembly must prepare to meet the crisis which has suddenly overwhelmed the educational system of the State. At the moment a democratic measure of taxation, one that has a precedent in many other states, seems advisable. President John H. Finley, at the head of the entire educa- tional system of the State, has recently declared himself in favor of united support for home rule for the schools, for financial independence on the part of boards of education, and for separate tax rolls and assessments for educational purposes. We believe that the people of this State, of all political parties, and of all religious creeds, when the matter is thoroughly explained to them, will also share cheerfully in the new burdens necessary to develop and to protect our youth. Americans, one and all, are keen about the educa- tion of their children; all are ready to make some sacrifices, and the greater number are ready to make substantial sacrifices. It is true that all adults now pay an invisible and indirect tax through rentals. A visible and direct tax for education would be paid with less murmuring if its purpose were well known and understood. NATURE-EDUCATION BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM —DISCOVERY REACHES THE SCHOOL MIND The Museum is independently developing its school educational work, and with the exceptions noted has made encouraging progress. In the last five years Populariza- a; ? j tion of it has reached 5,650,595 children directly and Science indirectly through its lecture system and travel- ing museums; it has expended $80,126.08 of its own funds directly on public education, in addition to the $1,538,057 expended on explorations, collections and researches in remote regions and on abstruse branches of science, which ultimately find their way into the school mind. This trans- fer of great scientific discoveries to the schools is going on all the time. In biology, consider the remoteness from JOINS YUU-AJUIAIS Je YIVgG Jesus Surovyy TIVH IVIMOWAP, LTAAASOOY aasodon ay} JO UONRADTY JU dy} J9JUND oy UL BuIMOYS @GVOVIT NUVG IVALINAD WN Xe MA NX S\ ~~ K eee £0 SRE TH ONY SARS TH Art and Industrial Life of the City 23 practical school life of Pasteur’s discoveries fifty years ago; now they are part and parcel of the education of youth. With an increased idealism in home and family life, Gal- ton’s principles of eugenics announced in 1884 are slowly penetrating the school mind and conscience. As an extreme illustration of a less practical kind, when the Museum started its Department of Vertebrate Pal- zontology in 1891, there were probably not ten school children in the City of New York who knew what a dinosaur was. There are now some hundreds of thousands who know something about dinosaurs, for there are few children visiting the Museum who do not ask for the big fossils. These animals are now household words in the press, in school and college text-books; they crowd the illustrated pages of our newspapers; they form part of our language and literature, in art and in caricature. The American Museum has expended about a million dollars in this one department. It now easily leads the world in exhibits and collections of vertebrate fossils, and, although these fossils are at present uncouthly crowded and arranged for want of building space, they still possess great educational value. Anyone who is skeptical about this should note the close observation by the boys and girls of the animals of our ancient North American world. We are employing similar means effectively in Astronomy, through the gift by Mr. Edward D. Adams of the painting of the solar eclipse, by Howard Russell Butler. ART TANDPINDUSPRIAL Erne Ob Eb (Cli yi The possibility of the wide educational influence of the Museum in the art and industrial life of the City was demonstrated by the special Exhibition of In- dustrial Art in Textiles and Costumes, held in the Museum in November. The primary pur- pose of this exhibition was to show how Museum material could serve as the inspiration for designs in textiles and in costumes. The exhibition was installed under the dircction Industrial rt Exhibition 24 Report of the President of Curator Wissler and Doctor Herbert J. Spinden, as- sisted by Mr. David Aaron, Mr. M. D. C. Crawford, Mr. Stewart Culin, Mr. Max Meyer and Miss Jessie Franklin Turner, and the movement had the hearty support and cooperation of thirty-five manufacturing houses and experi- enced designers. In the plan of the exhibition, the Museum specimen was shown in proximity to the modern design or costume derived from it. This initial step in pointing out the possibilities of cooperation between our museum and the textile industries received much favorable comment and brings forward the suggestion that the extension of the Museum to cover applied sciences is desirable. UNTRUTHFUL ARRANGEMENT OF COLLECTIONS With all this obvious advance, the Museum has certainly come to a full stop in some branches of its educational work, and in many branches it 1s actually going Confusion backward. We are not truthfully presenting Through pee : Congestion the facts about amphibians, reptiles, fishes, birds or mammals—because of disorderly arrangement. In hall after hall the arrangement is less truthful and more misleading than it was twenty years ago, because the collections are jumbled together out of their natural order. Animals which are not in the least related are placed side by side. Animals of the remote past, in fact of the very dawn of life, crowd the animals of to-day and yesterday. Small wonder that in the popularized science of the day, which is constantly flowing from Museum sources and finding its way into the newspapers all over this conti- nent, dinosaurs are represented as contemporaneous with the mammoth and mastodon. Small wonder that the impres- sions of the superb succession of life through the ages of Vertebrates—of Fishes, of Amphibians, of Reptiles, of Mammals, of the Antiquity of Man—are completely con- fused.

This figuratively is the condition of six of our large exhibition halls at the present time. It is not a civic luxury, it is a@ paramount educational necessity, which demands the completion of the building plans of the Natural History Museum, in order that the youth and the adults of the City may realize the full educa- tional force and inspiration of our wonderful collections. HARMONIOUS EDUCATIONAL EXHIBITION AT A STANDSTILL Exhibition, in the desired educational sense, is at a stand- still for lack of building space and for lack of cases in five of our large halls. For want of the AFRI- Lack of CAN, ASIATIC,, “POENR and OCEANIC pears HALLS, we are years behind in the exhibi- tion of our African collections, of our Asiatic collections, of our Arctic and Antarctic collections, of our Oceanic collections, of our South American collections.

This is concurrent with the fact that the Museum has unquestionably the best staff of experts that has ever been brought together in the history of this branch of science; men who are at the top of their profession not only in this country but in the world, several men of genius. They are drawn from many races, from many parts of the world; they include expert preparators in every branch of natural history, expert imitators of every known form of animal and of plant life, from the minute bacterium to the gigantic whale and dinosaur; they include painters and sculptors of animal life who lead their professions. Supplying these men with the scientific facts for artistic and educational expression is our school of old and young explorers who 26 Report of the President have visited every ocean and every continent. Such men as Chapman, Cherrie, Stefansson, MacMillan, Akeley, Andrews, Anthony, Lang, Chapin, Miller, Beck, Crampton, Hovey, Brown, Granger, Wissler, Goddard, Lowie, Spinden, Miner, Lutz, Wheeler. In the Museum archives are records and note-books of precise observations from every part of the North and many parts of the South American con- tinent, from central and northern Africa, from eastern Asia and from Korea and Japan. These note-books are supple- mented by a collection of field photographs numbering more than 25,000, also by the moving picture films of explorers like Paul J. Rainey, James Barnes, Roy C. Andrews and Donald B. MacMillan. When only a tithe of these riches is being displayed for want of space and means of equipment, when men of museum genius like Curator Bashford Dean are leaving the Museum to seek an opportunity elsewhere, when sculptors of the rank of Carl E. Akeley are held back six years for the space of the AFRICAN HALL, Members and friends must not receive the false impression, through the random completion of an attractive exhibit or habitat group in this or that part of the Museum, that the Museum as a whole is progressing. To conclude this statement of the actual condition of things, the most important thing for the Museum to-day 1s an enlarged building and equipment. THE IDEAL NATURAL HISTORY BUILDING We believe that the southern half of the building and the Central Transverse Section, with a new LECTURE HALL of larger seating capacity, and two cen- - palding tral Court Buildings, will make an ideal natural history building for the coming fifty years. Such a completed Museum building corresponds with the plan prepared and published by the President in 1911.* i History, Plan and Scope of The American Museum of Natural History.

Fioor PLAN or ProposepD RoosEVELT MEMORIAL AND AFRICAN HALL. The Ideal Natural History Building 27 This Museum of Pure Science will develop three-fifths of the original ground plan. The remaining two-fifths may advantageously be devoted in part to the applications of science to health, to economics, to industry, to mineralogy, to the textile arts and manu- factures. Such museums have already been developed in cities like Philadelphia and Munich, and such applications of natural history and of anthropology are greatly needed in the City of New York. The enlarged Lecture Hall may be used in common, and for purposes of both pure and applied science, it should have a seating capacity for 2,500 to 3,000 persons. It would be in practically constant use for lectures and demonstrations in pure science, in applied science and by the Board of Education. By combined municipal, state and individual effort, a Natural History Museum adequate for the coming fifty years may be completed in the year 1924, to oe ie celebrate our first half century. The prepara- tion of general plans may be completed during the present year at an estimated cost of $3,500. The plans and specifications for the SOUTHEAST WING and COURT BUILDING were completed in May, 1911, and could be sent to the builder at once. Plans for the WEST CENTRAL PAVILION will be restudied to meet the greatly increased cost of modern building. Plans for the remainder of the Transverse Section include the WEST CEN- TRAL WING, the ASTRONOMIC HALL, the EAST CEN- TRAL WING (AFRICAN HALL), combined with the BAST CENTRAL PAVILION: (proposed) ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL HALL). With the approval of Governor Smith, a bipartisan State Commission will be appointed at Albany to consider the various plans that have been suggested as a State Memorial to Theodore Roosevelt. Among the suggested plans is that illustrated in the accompanying plates of this Report, first brought forward in the Fiftieth Annual Report. 28 Report of the President The approximate cost of each of these sections is as follows: Space cu. ft.

In our opinion such a one-sided development would be a step backward: it would be a betrayal of the pur- poses which Mr. Jesup had in mind, and which he manifested throughout his entire career as President, as well as those of Mrs. Russell Sage. Pure scientific research of the highest order, conducted by experts who were leaders in their respective fields, was Mr. Jesup’s constant aim and should be our constant en- deavor in administering his trust. He brought to the Museum leaders in Mammalogy, in Anthropology, in In- vertebrate and Vertebrate Paleontology, and through them junior leaders have been trained in the Museum, in field exploration, and in the pure science courses of Columbia 30 Report of the President University. Our staff in pure science has never been so strong as it is at the present moment, or so united in the spirit of friendly cooperation. The research product of the Museum has grown by leaps and bounds; the volume of our publications has increased several fold; the popular pub- lications, based on ‘the pure researches of their authors, have spread the scientific influence of the Museum all over the world. It is interesting to observe that these branches of science relinquished by many of our universities are taken up by our museums. The details of these explorations, researches and publica- tions are given in the usual reports by the Director and Heads of Departments. A summary of scientific publica- tion during the last five years is as follows: Number of Pages Natural History of North America.................... 4,959 % i ot SouthwAmenicanencoeee eee. 1,470 : * “Asia (Andrews’ Expeditions)...... 205 “f ‘s EEUT OPE!

Espe- cially noteworthy serial publications on recent explorations, completed or well advanced, are papers on the “Anthropology of the Southwest” with the Archer M. Huntington Fund, the great Bibliography of Fishes with the Jesup Fund, and the six volumes on Fossil Vertebrates with the Jesup Fund. Aided by the Jesup Fund’, Professor Osborn, as a member of the~ i Professor Osborn’s research, travel and publication fund is devoted to the salaries of his research assistants and artists engaged in this work, and in part to his own travels, Museum's Explorations 31 staff of the United States Geological Survey, has just com- pleted his monograph, “Titanotheres of Western America,’ on which he has been engaged for nineteen and a half years. About $75,000 has been expended since i910 on South American exploration and publication through successive expeditions led by Chapman, Roosevelt, South Cherrie, Miller and Richardson. Our senior Sa ee Curator, Dr. J. A. Allen, has produced a series of classical papers on South American mam- mals. Expeditions into the interior bear the name of Theodore Roosevelt. Doctor Chapman’s “Distribution of Bird-Life in Colombia,” recently awarded the Daniel Giraud Elliot Medal by the National Academy of Sciences, is also a classic and leads to similar volumes on the birds of Peru and of Chile. The materials and collections will fill our South American Hall. We have thus far expended $190,000 on African explora- tion, research and publication. Unrivaled collections of reptiles, birds and mammals are in storage await- African — ing the construction of the African Hall, as the Sal be seuee result of the courageous and untiring field work of a succession of explorers, namely, Roosevelt, Tjader, Akeley, Rainsford, Barnes, Rainey, Lang and Chapin. The two last named have rendered monumental service to African natural history in bringing out the most complete and the most perfectly preserved collection which has ever come from Africa, with precise field notes and 9,500 photographs. The results are being issued in a series of twelve volumes en- titled The Zoology of the Belgian Congo. To these volumes, not only our own but other eminent scientists of the country are contributing, notably Director W. J. Holland, of the Car- negie Museum, Professor William Morton Wheeler of Har- vard University, and Dr. Henry A. Pilsbry of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. The first two Congo volumes were recently presented to the King of the Belgians 32 Report of the President following his visit to the Museum. A duplicate collection is being sent to the great Congo Museum at Tervueren, Belgium, according to the agreement of the Museum with the Belgian Government. Through the successive journeys of one of our own ex- plorers, Mr. Roy C. Andrews, in Japan, Korea, the Provinces of Yunnan, Fukien, Shansi, and in Mongolia, eolete i aided by the Rev. Harry R. Caldwell, we have xploration shines : : made a notable beginning in the collections representing the eastern mountain, plain and desert life of Asia. We have secured about one-half of the materials necessary to fill the ASIATIC HALL of the proposed South- east Wing. We still require examples of the life of tropical Asia and Indo-Malaya. All together we have expended $35,000 in Asiatic exploration and publication up to the pres- ent time. Popular scientific works are carrying the riches of the Museum to readers all over the world. The series of popular volumes by Peary, Stefansson, MacMillan, Popular | Roosevelt, Chapman, Miller, Wissler, An- Publications é : drews and Lutz constitute a library of standard reference on Arctic exploration, on African, Asiatic and South American travel, and on the ancient and recent history of the primitive races of Europe and of North America: iPReany, Robert: Northward Over the Great Ice, 1898 The North Pole, 1910 Secrets of Polar Travel, 1917 Stefansson, Vilhjalmur, My Life with the Eskimo, 1913 MacMillan, Donald B., Four Years in the White North, 1918 Roosevelt, Theodore, Through the Brazilian Wilderness, 1914 Popular Publications 33 Chapman, Frank M., Camps and Cruises of an Ornithologist, 1908 Handbook of Birds of Eastern North America, 1912 The Travels of Birds, 1916 Our Winter Birds, 1918 Millen wweonkes In the Wilds of South America, 1918 Wissler, Clark, North American Indians of the Plains, 1912 The American Indian, 1917 Andrews, Roy C., Whale Hunting with Gun and Camera, 1916 Camps and Trails in China, 1918 Mutz, Frank E. Field Book of Insects, 1918 Again aided by the Jesup Fund, Professor Osborn has produced three popular volumes which have become of standard reference: The Age of Mammals, 1910 Men of the Old Stone Age, 1915 The Origin and Evolution of Life, 1917 Works of this kind are drawn upon by writers of text- books for schools and colleges, in all parts of the world. For publication as well as for the enrichment of the col- lections and the preparation of exhibitions, the total sum of &1,412,839.32 has been expended, since Mr. Jesup’s decease in 1908, from the income from the Morris K. Jesup Fund, which by the terms of the will is devoted to purely scientific purposes. 34 Report of the President GENERAL AND SCIENTIFIC ENDOWMENT The total general and scientific endowment on Decem- ber 3I, 1919, amounted to $8,117,986.07. If the munificent bequests which have been made to the Museum Bequests during the last few years are realized, our eee an total endowment will amount to $10,337,986.07. The present status of these bequests is as follows: BEQUEST OF Amos F. Eno: Under the will of Amos F. Eno, the Museum is to receive $250,000. The will is being contested, and the case is pending in the courts. BEQUEST OF CHARLES E. RHINELANDER: The Museum’s interest is 2% of the residuary estate. The Museum’s prospective share is $8,000 and possibly an additional $12,000 from a trust fund contingent upon the death of Rhinelander Waldo without descendants. Charles E. Rhine- lander died on December 7, 1915. BEQUEST OF HELEN C. JuILLIARD: The Museum’s interest in this estate is $50,000, which was held in trust by Mr. A. D. Juilliard during his life. The Museum has received (in 1919) income amounting to $2,050 on this bequest, this being the interest since April 25, 1919, the date of Mr. Juilliard’s death. BEQueEst oF JAMES GAUNT: The Museum is entitled to one-half of the residuary estate, subject to life estate of Thomas T. Gaunt. The Museum’s share is $15,000 plus one-half the proceeds from certain real property in Idaho of uncertain value. Bequest oF Emit Wotrr: The Museum is to receive fifty shares of the Preferred Stock of the Einstein-Wolff Com- pany. Notice has been filed with the federal authorities of the intention of the Museum to accept this bequest. Bequest or Lupwic Dreyruss: The Museum is to receive $10,000 from this estate. The Assistant Secretary has filed notice of the Museum’s intention to accept this bequest. General and Scientific Endowment 35 BEQUEST OF Louisa ComBE: The Museum is designated as residuary legatee. The estimated value of the Museum’s interest in the estate is from $50,000 to $75,000. There is a possibility that the Museum will receive approximately $5,000 on account in 1920. BEQUEST OF MARGARET OLIVIA SAGE: The Museum is en- titled to two shares of the residuary estate, which have an estimated value of from $1,500,000 to $1,700,000. The ex- ecutors expect to make a substantial payment on account of this legacy in 1920. BEQguest oF A. D. Jur~yiarp: Under the will of Mr. A. D. Juilliard, the Museum is to receive $100,000. The Assistant Secretary has signed the necessary papers to exempt the Museum from the Inheritance Tax. BEQUEST OF FANNY BripGHAM: Under the will of Mrs. Fanny Bridgham, who became a Life Member of the Museum in 1912, and who died October 23, 1919, the Museum is to receive an unconditional bequest of $15,000. Many of these recent bequests have come as a surprise to the Trustees, without our solicitation or suggestion. They consti- tute a striking manifestation of the firm hold which the Museum has gained on the confidence and affections of the people of our city. Educational and living costs have doubled within the last ten years. Our total annual budget for our public educa- tional work in the broadest sense has risen Doubled ~§ = from $244,240.17 in 1907, the last year of Mr. Cost of ‘ aps : Oueration Jesup’s administration, to $774,899.29, our budget for 1920, The size of the building and the maintenance work re- main virtually the same, yet the operating and maintenance costs have risen from $186,828.52 in 1907, to $359,902.79, the maintenance budget for 1920. For the combined years 1919 and 1920 we face a deficiency of $106,401.08, incurred in op- eration and maintenance, that is, in the purely public educa- tional side of the Museum administration, with all the exhi- bition halls open free to the public every day in the year. 36 Report of the President The Board of Estimate and Apportionment has shown its faith in the public educational work that the Museum is doing by increasing the annual appropriation this year by $95,140.00, practically an advance of 50% of the appropria- tion for 1919. We need at the present moment -$2,000 000 of additional, general endowment to meet the current costs of operation, that is, to continue our public educational work in the exhibi- tion halls, lecture halls, and exchange collections delivered to the libraries and schools. MEMBERSHIP AND STAFF We regret to record that during the year two of our colleagues have been removed by death, namely, Mr. Augustus D. Juilliard, who died on April 25, 1919, after a service of twenty-one years, and Mr. Henry Clay Frick, who died on December 2, 1919, and who had been a member of the Board since February 2, 1914. The Trustees at a meeting of the Board, held on November 10, 1919, adopted the following minute and ordered it suitably engrossed: Trustees The Board of Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History desire to record their warm appre- ciation of the many years of service of Aucustus D. JUILLIARD which began with his election to the Board on May 9, 1898, and continued to the time of his death on April 25, 1919. His clear and sound judgment was manifested in his work upon the Finance Committee (1903-1905), the Auditing Committee (1908), and his ten years of serv- ice on the Executive Committee (1909-1919). He gave evidence of his wide interest in the Museum by gener- ous annual contributions to its maintenance and to ex- plorations in the Congo. In recent years he donated the unique collection of Nazca Pottery, also a beautiful series of Peruvian textiles, and he showed an especially warm interest in the work that the Museum is doing in | industrial textile design. Membership and Staff 37 All together his individual donations amounted to more than $36,000, and through his Will he manifested his faith in the future of the Museum by a bequest of $100,000, which will supplement Mrs. Juilliard’s gener- ous legacy of $50,000. The Trustees will greatly miss his genial presence and will endeavor to keep alive his memory and influ- ence by continuing the wise and patriotic administration of his gifts and legacies to the Museum for the public welfare. At the Executive Committee meeting, held on December 17, 1919, the Trustees recorded their appreciation of the services of Mr. Frick by the adoption of the following minute: The Trustees desire to record their sorrow in the loss of their late associate Henry Ciay FRICK a member of the Board of Trustees from February 2, 1914, until December 2, 1919, the date of his decease. The activities of Mr. Frick on our Board are found in the following records from our minutes: February 2, 1914—Elected a Trustee in the Class of 1918 to succeed Mr. George S. Bowdoin, deceased. February 18, 1914—Appointed member of Finance Committee, which position he held until his death. February 5, 1917—Elected Associate Benefactor in view of generous contributions and interest in growth of Museum. February 5, 1917—Entertained Trustees at his resi- dence on the occasion of the An- nual Meeting of the Board. He was a liberal contributor to the general work of the Museum, his gifts totaling $17,000. We wish especially to record our admiration of the public spirit and patriotism of our late colleague and his superb bequests to art, to philanthropy and to gen- eral and technical education, which place him among the foremost benefactors of the people of the country. We desire to extend to the members of his family our most sincere sympathy in their loss and our pro- found appreciation of the life and work of Mr. Frick. 38 Report of the President ‘ Because of the demands of other duties upon his time and energy, Mr. R. Fulton Cutting tendered his resignation as a member of the Board, which was accepted with regret by the Executive Committee at a meeting held on October LE eO LO: Two new Trustees were elected to the Board on Novem- ber 10, 1919, namely, Mr. Walter Douglas and Lieutenant- Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. Several changes were made in the Scientific Staff in Ig19, through promotion, resignation or appointment: Mr. G. K.

Public Activities of the Staff 39 IPUIBIEIE MG INNV INS S) Ole Walls, Sites The outside activities of Staff members have been exten- sive and in many instances they have received notable pub- lic recognition. By direction of Albert 1., King of the Belgians, Colonel Leon Osterrieth, Chief of the Belgian Military Mission, presented to President Henry Fairfield Osborn, at the Museum on November 20, 1919, the Cross of Commander of the Order of the Crown of Belgium, in recognition of the Museum’s important services to science in exploring the Belgian Congo and in issuing valuable publications setting forth the results of its collections and researches. President Osborn has been elected to a trusteeship of the Institut de Paléontologie Humaine of Paris, as a member of the Conseil de Perfectionnement. President Osborn served on Mayor Hylan’s Committee on Receptions to Distinguished Guests to welcome ‘Their Majesties King Albert I. and Queen Elizabeth of Belgium, and His Royal Highness Edward Prince of Wales. In November, the Cullum Geographical Medal was awarded to President Osborn by the Council of the Ameri- can Geographical Society.

Chapman, from October, 1918, to April, 1919, was Red Cross Commissioner to South America, the highest office, for foreign service, the Red Cross can give. He also visited the Panama Red Cross and the extremely active Canal Zone Chapter, and was sent in April, 1919, to Paris to report on his work, Dr. W. D. Matthew has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Great Britain. Dr. William K. Gregory was elected a Corresponding Member of the Zoological Society of London, January 15, 1919. 40 Report of the President Dr. Herbert J. Spinden was elected a Corresponding Member of the Society of Americanists of Paris, at their meeting of November 4, 1919. The American Museum was represented at the fourteenth annual meeting of the American Association of Museums, held in Philadelphia in May, by Dr. E. O. Hovey, Dr. Herbert J. Spinden and Mr. Roy W. Miner. Dr. Spinden addressed the session with reference to the utilization of museum material in industrial art. The American Society of Mammalogists has been organized in Washington. Among the councilors is Dr. W. D. Matthew. Mr. Carl E. Akeley is a member of the Roosevelt Permanent National Committee, appointed for the purpose of choice and erection of a national memorial to the late Theodore Roosevelt. The Aéronautical Society of America, at its meeting of Jan- uary 9, elected Mr. Carl E. Akeley to life membership in recog- nition of his important invention of a camera specially designed for use in aeroplane work. At the annual meeting of the American Camp Directors Association and the Woodcraft League of America, held at Greenkill Camp near Kingston, New York, in May, bird study was conducted by Dr. G. Clyde Fisher, representing the Museum. Dr. Fisher has been made a member of the Coun- cil of Guidance of the Woodcraft League. On December 20, the Museum was represented by Dr. Henry E. Crampton at a conference at Albany to consider a biological survey of the State. Dr. F. E.

Lucas In spite of the restrictions imposed by crowded halls and store-rooms and the increased cost of everything, the Director is able to report progress in the acquisition of material, in research, publication, installation and attend- ance, as well as important gains in membership. Some of the progress has been in indirect lines, like a ship beating to windward; there have been shifts and makeshifts; much of the installation is temporary, and many changes will be necessary when more room is available, but much that has been done will be ready for exhibition when the time arrives. There is no better maxim for the Museum Curator than that found in the words of Theodore Roosevelt, “Do what you can, where you are, with what you have,” and for the past five years or so the Museum staff has been working on that principle. Notwithstanding the shortening of the hours during which the Museum was open to the public and the fact that many of the halls have been closed half the time, the attendance has been very good, especially during the last half of the year. Part of the attendance during the first part of the year was probably due to the presence in and near New York of soldiers await- ing their discharge and to their relatives and friends who came to meet them. The number of visitors in the last six months is, the Director feels, largely due to improvements in the exhibition halls, which are better arranged and more fully labeled than ever before, though unfortunately some halls are still in- Attendance 46 Report of the President adequately labeled. In considering the attendance, the num- ber of visitors to the Flower Show and to the Exhibit of Industrial Art has been discounted, but subtracting these, the number during the last four months was as great as at any previous corresponding period. Among noteworthy visitors were the King and Queen of Belgium, accompanied by the Crown Prince; the members of the Abyssinian Mission, headed by the Dedjazmatch (Duke) Nado; and Viscount Grey. The Abyssinians were most impressed by the fossil vertebrates, not merely by the size of such creatures as the Dinosaurs, but with their great age, and the abundance of life at so early a period in the history of the earth. The past few years of war, cold, unrest, strikes and epidemics of infantile paralysis and influenza have told severely on Museum attendance, but the year I9g109, it is hoped, can be considered as an approach to normal.

Three of the Handbooks were also “sold out.” All together there were sold at the attendants’ desks 3,005 Guides, 1,886 Handbooks, 3,087 Leaflets and 1,044 Reprints, a total of 9,022 copies. The Printing Plant 47 These figures do not include sales made through the Library, which go largely to educational institutions, where the Handbooks or other publications, particularly those of the Departments of Anthropology and Vertebrate Palzon- tology, are used as text books or works of reference. The increase in printing equipment made in 1918 has been thoroughly justified by the results obtained, although, owing to rapid increases in the prices of ma- terial and labor, it is unusually difficult to make a comparison of the work done in the Museum with that done outside. Thanks, however, to Dr. Wissler, who was largely instrumental in the acquisition of the printing plant, and who has followed its operations very carefully, it is possible to say that the output has been entirely satisfactory in quantity and in cost; there is no question as to the excellent quality of the work turned out. It is also difficult to place an exact estimate on the work of the Printing Office, not merely on account of its varied character, which necessitates frequent changes from one class of work to another, but from the fact that compara- tively few copies of any piece of work are called for. As one result of the restriction of field work, more time has been devoted to research and the preparation of papers, an unusual number of which have been offered for publica- tion. The amount of work on hand at the close of 1919 is in itself sufficient to keep the present plant busy for the coming year, but it is hoped to add further equipment and to also provide folding and stitching machines for the bindery. Among the decided advantages in having the printing plant in the Museum is that, when necessary, matter may be held in type. This is particularly desirable in the case of the Guide where slight changes can be made from time to time, in the way of cuts or descriptive matter, without involving complete resetting of the publication. The Bulletin and Anthropological Papers have been printed in the Museum by our own staff, but the Memoirs are let out The Printing Plant 48 Report of the President to commercial concerns. The labor and other troubles have so interfered with this outside printing that no Memoirs ap- peared in I919, but two important manuscripts were sent outside for printing and will be issued shortly. Popular Publications, so called, printed during the year, include one new Handbook of 224 pages on “Peoples of the Philippines,” edition 1,000; a reprint of the Popular Handbook of 266 pages on “Animals of the Publications = bast” edition 2,000; the sixth edition of the and Labeling ’ ’ ’ General Guide, 136 pages, edition 3,000; an edition of 2,000 each of two new Guide Leaflets, one of 32 pages on “The Collection of Minerals,” and one of 32 pages on “Indian Beadwork”; a reprint of the Leaflet of 24 pages on “Peruvian Art,” edition 2,000; 5,000 copies of a special leaflet of 19 pages as a guide to the Exhibit of Industrial Art; 19,700 booklets of lectures for Members of the Museum, 16 pages; 46,300 circulars for membership and ‘Too copies of Honor Roll, 16 pages, 200 impressions.

New Exhibits AO) rey BK Est =" Sites SaIWOAQ NVOWAVW 10 dNOur) - ADOTVWWVW JO LNANLYVdad New Exhibits 49 A most notable addition to the exhibits is the large painting of the Eclipse of the Sun in June, 1918, painted -by Howard Russell Butler and presented by Mr. E. D. Adams. This is one of the most successful pieces of in- stallation ever carried out and shows what may be ac- complished by an artist who is also skilled in matters mechanical. The picture was planned for a point of view fity feet from the painting, and the light effects, carried out by Mr. Langham, are such that the corona and prom- inences appear transparent. Two other pieces also planned by artists are the Wolf Group, by Hobart Nichols, and the African Pygmies by Frederick Blaschke. The Wolf Group is noteworthy from its simplicity of design and artistic effect: while including but three animals and few accessories, no group in the Museum elicits more admiration from visitors. The African Pygmies comprise a family group of four figures. modeled from the casts from life and photographs taken by Mr. Herbert Lang on the Congo Expedition. In the Department of Anthropology, Mr. Sullivan has installed the first of the series of exhibits illustrating the structure and distinctive characters of the races of mankind. The introductory series gives a brief history of craniometry, shows the skull characters on which the divisions are based, the terms employed and the measurements used. A most interesting and unexpected addition is a fine example of the Giant Panda, or Bear Raccoon, from Tibet, which was obtained with a few other commercial skins from the Rev. Joseph Milner. An important exhibition of Industrial Art was held in November, its main object being to show the possible appli- cation of primitive designs to modern textiles and costumes, and the opportunities offered to teachers and students by the Museum col- lections. Some thirty important manufacturers and dealers contributed to make this exhibition a success, and special credit is due to Dr. H. J. Spinden for planning the arrange- Special Exhibitions 50 Report of the President ment of the exhibition and to Mr. M. D. C. Crawford for securing the co-operation of the exhibitors. The exhibits were grouped in sections, each illustrating some branch of the textile or costume industry and so arranged as to show the relation between the primitive object or design and its ap- plication to modern or so-called civilized use. While this exhibit was highly successful in showing the opportunities offered by the Museum to students, and was highly praised by teachers of design and officers from museums of art, yet it is extremely doubtful if, under exist- ing conditions, such exhibits are of lasting effect and in the end helpful to the Museum. There is no doubt that such exhibits are helpful to part of the public and are extremely desirable when space is available and working force to be had. In the present instance, three of the exhibition halls were out of commission for a month and during half of that time practically all of the mechanical force was occupied in the work of installation and rearrangement. While a special hall is badly needed for such special exhibits, yet, as noted farther on, the extensive gallery planned for the Hall of Ocean Life would furnish room for some time to come. Incidentally the Exhibition of Industrial Art showed con- clusively that the public does not desire evening opening of the Museum, for, while the Museum was open I4 evenings in order to accommodate those who presumably could not come during the day, there were only 1,910 who availed themselves of the opportunity, the greatest attendance being only 240, while the least was but 66. Other special exhibits include the following: An exhibition of water-color pictures of birds of para- dise, painted from life by Mrs. Ellis Rowan, was made at the Museum in July. The “Roosevelt Day” exhibit opened on October 27, con- tained some of the books written by Colonel Roosevelt and also certain animals and birds collected by him. During the meetings of the American Ornithologists’ Public Information 51 Union, pictures by Louis A. Fuertes and Miss Althea R. Sherman were exhibited, also objects relating to the Long Expedition of 1819-20. In December, an exhibit of Museum Posters of Museum exhibits, designed by students of the Washington Irving High School, was placed on exhibition in the Eastern Wood- lands Hall. Mr. Pindar, Chairman of the Public Information Com- mittee, has been most successful in keeping the public informed of interesting exhibits and events at Public the Museum, and ninety-five articles prepared ner mation by him have been used extensively in New York and other cities, the New York press in particular having been most liberal in its notices of the Museum and its activities. The quick response to newspaper notices is shown by the fact that an exhibit described in the morning papers is asked for before noon. Under the direction of the Publicity Committee, there was installed early in January, 1919, a Hospitality Room for the entertainment of returning soldiers and sailors. Its establishment was highly com- mended by the authorities, and the facilities we were able to offer were warmly appreciated by the War Camp Community Service, the American Red Cross, and the Base and Reconstruction Hospitals of the vicinity. During the period of its maintenance (January 2 to September 13), 16,925 men made use of the room. The Registrar also reports that all records of accessions between 1869 and 1909 have been checked and filing cards prepared giving data bearing on all exhibits and storage material up to 1go9. The new packing and shipping rooms have greatly facilitated the work of the Registrar’s department, which, during the year, handled 11,779 pieces. Hospitality Room 52 Report of the President In addition to the constant repairs to building and cases, construction of cases, pedestals, trays and other equipment, the Department of Construction has built an Gareuat office room in the Southeast Pavilion, a new pulling garage and storage room on the southwest an Equipment court and a new receiving room at the foot of the west driveway. This is the logical place for the future receiving and shipping room, and the point should be kept in mind in planning the west front and com- municating driveway which should be so extended as to pass under the first-floor entrance and come out again on Columbus Avenue. Galleries have been built or extended in the offices of the departments of mammals, birds and insects, to provide greatly needed storage room, and these are waiting for the cases asked for in 1918, for which trays are already con- structed. Much good work has been done that makes no showing. Through the efforts of Messrs. Anthony, Griscom and Coleman, the store-rooms and passageways used for storage, especially those in the attic, are in better condition than at any time in the past decade. The basement corridors are also in better shape than ever. Considerable damage was done in April (12) by the bursting of a water-main on Eighth Avenue, which flooded the basement to a depth of two feet, ruining many articles in the store-room, spoiling considerable print paper in the press-room and putting out of commission the three motors. The heating and lighting plant is in excellent condition, in spite of its age, though the old-fashioned installation Heating of much of it makes repairs and changes ex- and tremely difficult. Coal strikes, labor strikes of Tiebting various kinds; the high cost and too often poor quality of fireroom labor, coupled with the equally high cost and poor quality of coal, have conspired to render the position of Chief Engineer anything but pleasant. Nevertheless the lighting of the building, due to constant Needs of the Museum 53 effort and use of modern lamps and fixtures as fast as funds permitted, is better than ever. The demands for light have been unusually great the past year, and the total current supplied was 397,586 K.W., 77,000 more than in 1918, and this has been produced at the low figure of 2.55 cents per K.W. hour. The needs of the Museum are in character much as they have been for the past few years, but intensified. The need Needs of space in particular is greater than ever and e 6 Ki . of the is felt in every department: this want could be Museum met more promptly and at the least cost by the erection of the Southeast Court Building. This would fur- nish relief for some time in providing storage, work room and exhibition room while another section was being con- structed, and the gallery would also provide much needed space for temporary exhibitions. A considerable amount of material is already available for exhibition including groups of Walrus, Sea Elephants, Seals and Penguins, while the withdrawal of these from their present locations would permit much needed read- justments. This is particularly true in the Hall of North American Mammals. A few years ago this was North American in name only and contained many African mam- mals, but since that time these have been removed, five groups of large mammals have been added, five of small mammals and a number of single specimens, and three groups are now in hand. The addition of these will create still further congestion, but if the groups of boreal and oceanic mammals could be removed, there would be ample room for the mammals of North America. A crying need, noted in the Report for 1918, is for a panel board to care for electric wires for lighting cases and groups, so that there may be a definite segregation between these and those for general lighting purposes. When the building was planned, such demands for lights were un- known and naturally not provided for, but as group after 54 Report of the President group has been installed, it has become more and more difficult to find a source of light until all available means have been exhausted. Another need is new elevators to replace those in use for the past twenty-five years, which, while safe under normal conditions, continually demand minor repairs, are very slow, and are extremely hard on the operator. This Museum has frequent calls for information in regard to principles of administration, especially the relations of the Museum to the schools and the workings Cooperation Of its Department of Public Education, and for with other, such matters as methods of preparation, and and Societies these have been particularly numerous during the past year. Representatives have come from such widely separated points as Moscow, Hiroshima, and Canterbury, New Zealand, while the State Museum, Albany, the Boston Society of Natural History and Mt. Holyoke Seminary have had members of their force as volunteer workers in the Department of Preparation to ac- quire a practical knowledge of making molds, casts and accessories. Dr. R. H. Colley and his associate, Mr. Baldwin, spent much time at the Museum gathering data regarding salaries of Staff and Preparators and methods of accounting, for the Senate Commission, and, as usual, every facility was given them. In this connection should be mentioned a point not usually taken into consideration—that the more generally useful is a man or an institution, the wider his, or its sphere of influence, the less can that man or institution do individu- ally, the smaller will appear the immediate or visible resuits. The policy of the American Museum of Natural History has always been most liberal in affording information in all branches of its work, administrative, scientific or mechanical, and the administration feels that the time lost to itself is more than compensated by its service to the public. Public Education in the Museum and Schools 55 PUBLIC EDUCATION IN THE MUSEUM AND IN THE SCHOOLS* Georce H. SHerwoop, Curator At the beginning of the yearn the Department was faced with complete suspension of its work with the schools, be- cause these services are entirely outside of the Prospective ; aN } : Retrench- Museum’s contract obligations with the City. ment Hence when drastic retrenchment was forced upon the Trustees by the reduction of the City’s appropria- tion for maintenance, the cessation of these activities seemed to be the logical result. However, complete suspension of the relations with the schools which had been developed in the past sixteen years would have been so great a catastrophe that the Trustees were prevailed upon to authorize a limited or half-time educational program. Even under these conditions, the Circulating Nature Study Collections could be furnished to Manhattan schools only, and we were obliged to suspend the service to the schools of Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Richmond. The lectures for school children at the Museum were reduced to half the usual number, while those given in the Local Lecture Centers and other schools were eliminated entirely. President Osborn fully appreciated how serious such a curtailment of service would be for the pupils, the teachers and the Museum, but felt that he could not ask Support from the Trustees for further financial support for poare cf. it. Accordingly he laid the full facts before President Somers and other members of the Board of Education at a luncheon given at the Museum on February 18, 1919, at which the Board of Education was rep- * Under the Department of Public Education (see also pages 201 and 202). 50 Report of the President resented by President Somers, Mrs. Ruth F. Russell, and Superintendent Gustave Straubenmuller; the Museum by President Osborn, Director Lucas, Curator Sherwood and Doctor Fisher; and Professor Duggan was invited as the rep- resentative of the College of the City of New York. After the luncheon, an inspection was made of the Department of Public Education and the facilities it had for serving the schools. President Somers expressed the opinion that the Board of Education ought not to allow this work to stop and desired a statement of the additional cost of full-time service. By a careful readjustment of duties of the Staff, it was found that full service would cost only an additional $4,100, although the cost of the Department’s entire work would be approxi- mately $20,000. Later the Board of Education agreed to pro- vide the $4,100 needed, and full service to schools was resumed on March first. This included the Circulating Nature Study Collections, Lectures at the Museum, Lectures in Local Lec- ture Centers, Lending of Lantern Slides, Education for the Blind, Cooperation with Public Libraries, and Exhibition Hall Instruction for Classes. There has been no material change in the character of this work. These teaching collections have been furnished to Gieuibe teachers according to thein requests. Not only irculating E 5 Nature Study have the regular nature study sets of birds, in- Collections sects, woods, minerals, etc., been supplied, but frequently special selection of material has been made for some particular need of a school. For example, Indian gar- ments and other objects have been lent for use in giving pageants. As usual, the collections have been delivered by Museum messengers and the schools of the distant Bor- oughs have been especially well supplied. During the year, twenty cases with glass fronts and sides have been con- structed, in which are to be placed small habitat groups, or other exhibits illustrating biological principles more com- pletely than is practicable with specimens which can be handled. These will be added to the circulating series.

Several lectures were also Children given at certain schools, while during Regents’ Week, in January and in June, large numbers of high school students from Morris High, Evander Childs, and Washington Irving High School attended special lectures at the Museum, which were followed by laboratory work in the exhibition halls. The lectures dealt principally with geographical, historical or industrial topics, and were especially adapted to the groups ad- dressed. Several members of the Museum Staff have kindly participated in the delivery of these lectures, their special familiarity with the subjects thus increasing the interest of the pupils. The lectures given at the Museum number 57 and the attendance was 23,587, while 33 lectures were given in the schools in which 25,575 children were reached. Thus, all together 90 lectures have been given during the year, at which the total attendance was 49,162 pupils. In addition to the lecture work for the schools, the usual courses of lectures to Members on Thursday evenings and the Science Stories for Children of Members on Saturday morn- ings have been arranged. 58 Report of the President The Board of Education renewed its special grant for the lending of slides to teachers and this work has been con- tinued throughout the year. The details of Lending of distribution have been efficiently managed by pontere Miss Helen W. Russell, Miss Dorothy Van Vliet and Miss Grace E. Fisher. Naturally, it is only those schools that are equipped with lanterns and rooms that can be darkened which can make the most effective use of this material. In spite of this fact, 92 schools have been regularly supplied throughout the year. The systematic use of the slides is indicated by the number of times a school borrows them. While the average number of loans per school is 11, the maxi- mum of loans for a school was 143, P. S. No. 168, Manhattan, holding the record. A further fact of interest has been empha- sized by the work of the year, namely, that teachers find the Lecture Sets with Manuscripts more useful than the general slide collections. More than 53% of the slides lent are in these sets. Six new subjects have been added recently to the series, namely, Set 21—The History of our Country’s Transportation, by Ann E. Thomas Set 22—Through the Brazilian Wilderness with Colonel Roosevelt, by Geo. K. Cherrie Set 283—Camera Hunting for Whales, by Roy C. Andrews Set 24-The Search for Crocker Land, by Donald B. MacMillan Set 25—Life in North Greenland, by Donald B. MacMillan Set 26—Bird Life on an Antarctic Island, by Robert C. Murphy The Lecture Set 3—Our Forests and Their Uses, by Geo. H. Sherwood, has been expanded and divided into two parts, namely, Part 1, Set 3A—Our Forests and Their Uses—Forests and Methods of Lumbering Part 2, Set 3B—Forest Uses and Products—Forest Pro- tection and Conservation. Education for the Blind 59 There are 27 prepared lectures, and as several of these have been duplicated to meet the needs of teachers, the total num- ber of sets in circulation is 39. The number of separate loans was 1,470, while the total number of slides circulated was 80,468. Work for the Blind, supported by the Jonathan Thorne Memorial Fund, has included science talks for the sight con- servation classes of the public schools, an even- Education : : for the ing lecture for the adult blind, and loans to Blind classes of natural history specimens and of relief globes. Although the talks for the sight conservation classes were planned for both spring and fall, the spring course was sus- pended on account of the absence of Miss Thomas. This fall - the work was taken up by Miss Ruth E. Crosby and in consul- tation with Miss Moscrip, Inspector of Classes for the Blind in the Public Schools, a course of ten subjects was arranged, including: The Narrative of the World War..........

Each class was instructed separately and the carfares of the pupils and guides were refunded when de- sired. The chief aim in giving these talks is to provide the pupils with adequate material which they can “see with their hands.” In this way they gain a clear impression of many things which are difficult to describe and which are often wrongly conceived. For instance, the talk on the World War is illustrated by a large relief model showing the trenches and dugouts of a modern battlefield. A class of wide-awake high school girls, when shown this model, was amazed to find that a trench was hollowed from the ground. Without exception, 60 Report of the President each girl had had the impression that a trench was but a mound of earth like a hill. During the fall, 27 talks were given to the blind, at which 245 pupils were present. The sight conservation classes have made use of the regular natural history collections sent out by the Museum to the pub- lic schools. Many of the classes have also been supplied with large relief globes of the world, which the teachers recom- mend highly for their work in geography and history. In the service to the adult blind, the Museum was enabled to extend a rare treat. In codperation with the other agencies of the City, working with and for the blind, the Museum invited the blind of the City to hear Sir Arthur Pearson, the Blind Founder and Director of St. Dunstan’s Hostel for Blinded Soldiers, London, England, in the auditorium of the Museum on February 5, 1919. More than 700 gathered to hear him’ and were greatly inspired by his address. Before this address, Sir Arthur examined the models, specimens and other means employed by the Museum in giving instruction to the blind and expressed his appreciation of the work. One typical incident of the evening illustrates the value of this material in correct- ing misconceptions. While waiting for Sir Arthur’s arrival, the blind were examining the specimens on exhibition. One blind boy of twenty or twenty-five was “looking” the owl over carefully and expressed astonishment that it had only two legs and asked where the other two were. He examined the swan and found only two. The assistant had some difficulty in con-° vincing him that all birds have only two legs, not four. He said that the only animal he knew was a cat and since a cat had four legs, he supposed all animals had four. Loan collections, illustrating different phases of geography and natural history, have been in constant circulation among the branch libraries of the city. These collec- Loans to tions include Museum specimens, models, photo- Public Libvacios graphs, labels and maps, and were prepared largely through the generosity of the Depart- ment of Anthropology in furnishing both material and infor- mation. They are delivered to the libraries by the Museum ‘Solmvsqry] oqnq 0} spuss whasny 9y} suoNoa]Joy Surepnosy yi Jo aud ‘SONVIGOO\\ NUALSV AHL AO SNVIGNT NOILVONGA DITdNd AO INAW LAVA ~~ LCE \ Loans to Public Libraries : 61 messenger and are there exhibited for from one to two months. Their purpose is to stimulate an interest in books on geography, history and nature study and to increase cooperation between the Libraries, the Public Schools and the Museum. The ex- hibits are seen not only by the casual observer, but are also studied by classes from nearby schools, and often serve as illustrative material for the librarians’ “Story Hour.” There are seventeen of these collections in regular circula- tion. They have been furnished to fifteen libraries, in which more than 104,567 have seen them. The instruction in the exhibition halls is the equivalent of indoor field work and laboratory instruction. As often as was requested, members of the Department Staff met Exhibition classes from the city or suburban schools, Boy ell . Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, men’s and women’s nstruction ’ ? clubs, and individuals, and conducted them through the exhibition halls, calling attention to the principal exhibits and their meaning. The total number annually served in this way is considerable, and the work helps to spread the educational influence of the Museum. The regular staff members have been ably assisted in the work throughout the year by Miss Annie E. Lucas, who as a volunteer assistant has been very helpful in conducting wounded service men through the Museum. General education has been advanced by the large amount of photographic work done. Our two photographers have been fully occupied in making illustrations for Bpomerephic Natural History, in supplying prints to the Pub- licity Committee, in making photographs for the scientific publications, and in preparing large numbers of slides for lectures and for sales. In October, Miss Ann E. Thomas, who had been a member of the Staff since 1914, resigned to accept a position with the Bureau of Industrial Research. Miss Ruth E. enaneee in Crosby, a graduate of Wellesley, was appointed to this vacancy and has been placed in charge of the work for the blind and the library loans and also assists in 62 Report of the President the lecture and docent work. Early in the year Miss Virginia B. McGivney resigned as Slide Librarian and in November Miss Grace E. Fisher was appointed in her stead. The calls upon staff members for service outside of Museum work are frequent, and it is impossible to answer them all. Dr. Fisher, however, has contributed generously Guide of his time and experience. During his vacation t i : Berl he conducted, under the auspices of the National Association of Audubon Societies, the course in Bird Study at the University of Florida. Besides lecturing before a number of private schools, clubs and educational organizations, he addressed the Teachers’ College Alumni Association at Columbia; the New Jersey Science Teachers’ Association at Trenton, and the General Science Club of New England at Boston, on “The Use of Motion Pictures in Teach- ing Biology.” He also participated in meetings of the Wood- craft League and has recently been elected to the Council of Guidance of the League. The Curator and Associate Curator have undertaken, jointly, the preparation of the nature study section of the Girl Scouts Manual which is to be published early in 1920. The major part of this work has been done by Dr. Fisher. In the list of accessions we have made formal acknowledg- ments of the gifts received during the year, and at the same Aca! time we desire to express our appreciation of the edgments practical assistance which we have received from many sources. Motion picture filu.s have been loaned by the State Conservation Commission, through Mr. Clinton G. Abbott; by the General Electric Company, through Mr. C. F. Bateholts; by Mr. Lee Keedick; by the American-Scandi- navian Foundation, and by Prizma, Inc. Photographic mate- rial was generously furnished by Brown Brothers and by H. Martens & Co., and a map for copy by H. J. Yurman, Furrier. This friendly codperation has been very helpful in adyancing the educational work of the institution.

As far as available material goes, the biological alcoves of plants, brachio- pods, pelecypods, gastropods, cephalopods, trilo- bites and echinoderms were added to those previously in place, while on the stratigraphical side of the hall much material was installed in all the period exhibits. Dr. Reeds has had the hypothetical land masses and other data placed on the eight paleogeographical models and they now await painting to com- plete them. These models will form an attractive and highly instructive feature of the hall, giving visitors a clear visual concept of the meaning of earth history. When the main work on the hall stopped in mid-year, through exhaustion of funds for the special staff engaged on it, Mr. Foyles was as- signed to systematizing the arrangement of the mounts in the hall. In February the completed model of the Bright Angel sec- tion of the Grand Canyon of the Colorado was installed with its painted pictorial background, and the exhibit has received much complimentary notice from scientific and other visitors, indicating the interest that will be aroused and the instruction to be derived from the whole series of relief models planned for the hall. There has been placed on exhibition, in a case on the ground floor in the seismograph alcove, a selection from a remarkable lot of lead ore specimens from the Laclede Mine, Tar River, Oklahoma. These are part of a large series of such material which was secured at the mine, for the purpose of reproducing Exhibition. Hall ? Under the Department of Geology and Invertebrate Paleontology (see also pages 202 and 203). 64 Report of the President here a grotto showing a mode of occurrence of the ore in the famous Oklahoma-Kansas-Missouri lead and zine district. The core of the second topogeological relief model, that of the Mount Holyoke Range region in Massachusetts, was fin- ished in 1918. The core of the Watkins Glen Topogeologi- 3 d cal Relief region in Central New York State (to show Models Finger Lake and Glacial Drift phenomena) was finished, and that of the Standing Stone Tennessee region (to show typical sinkhole topography in an unglaciated limestone country) was prepared during the current year. The core of a fourth model, to show the topography and geology of the famous White Mountain, New Hampshire, region, is three- fourths done. The preparation of the card index of the Whitfield catalogue of invertebrate fossils has been continued through arranging in alphabetical order the 20,000 or more cards ee thus far prepared from the old books and through advancing the triplicate sheets and cards therefrom, and from the cataloguing of other fossil material. About 4,000 cards and individual labels, for the Hitchcock Collection of Vermont and New Hampshire rocks and for a portion of the general geological collection, have been pre- pared. Some 25,000 mounts of exhibition specimens have been supplied with temporary labels, the data being taken from the Whitfield catalogue. Dr. O’Connell’s monographic paper on the Silicispongiz appeared in the second half of the year and has received much aoe favorable criticism and comment. The collec- Publication : j : } : a tion of invertebrate fossils, made in Porto Rico Research by Dr. C. A. Reeds and Mr. P. B. Hill in rors, has been subdivided into zoological groups, certain of . which have been apportioned to specialists for study, identifi- cation and description. The echinoderms were intrusted to Doctor Robert T. Jackson of Peterborough, New Hampshire, and the Mollusca to Doctor Carlotta J. Maury, then of this Geological Research Os museum. Doctor Maury, as a result of her studies, published in the September number of the American Journal of Science a summary paper on the correlation of the Tertiary Forma- tions of Porto Rico with those of the other Antillean islands, and a longer paper entitled “Tertiary Mollusca from Porto Rico and their Zonal Relations,” including descriptions of some fifty new species and varieties, is in press for the publications of the New York Academy of Sciences. Doctor Marjorie O’Connell did some preliminary work on the Foraminifera, but for lack of apparatus could not complete the studies within the time allotted for them and they were dropped. Associate Curator Reeds has in hand the completion of his contour map of the Caribbean Sea and a popular scientific description of the seismograph. The Museum has received from Doctor T. Wayland Vaughan, of the United States Geological Survey, an extensive series of the rocks of the Lesser Antilles which the Curator is to work up, in connection with further intensive study of his own Museum collections from the same region, in making a comprehensive review of the igneous geology of the islands. The only field work done by the Department this year was that by the Curator in connection with a visit to the lead and zinc mining region of northeastern Oklahoma in Field Work February and March for the purpose of collect- ing material from the lead-ore (galenite) lining of a grotto in the mine of the Laclede Lead and Zinc Mining Company’s property at Tar River, Oklahoma. Among the gifts received by the Department, mention should be made of the large genetically arranged series of specimens illustrating coal and its derived products as- sembled with expert care and donated by The Barrett Company. From Mr. Edward J. Foyles has come a series of fossils and rocks from the Department of Doubs, France, made by him while serving with the United States Army. Four enlarged models of trilobite restorations have been prepared for us by Doctor Elvira Wood. Accessions 66 Report of the President Through exchange and purchase our collection of meteor- ites has received several noteworthy additions: a 2,445-gram (5 pound 6 ounce) mass, the largest known of the Cumber- land Falls, Kentucky, aérolite which fell 9 April, 1919, and a 467-gram (1 pound) cut and polished fragment of the same fall; an 8,320-gram (18 pound 5.5 ounce) entire mass of the Richardton, North Dakota, aérolite which was seen to fall 21 July, 1918; a 3,760-gram (8 pound 5 ounce) cut, polished and etched portion of a new iron meteorite from Australia; an entire new iron meteorite weighing 57,833 grams (127 pounds 8 ounces) from near Calexico, California; and four fragments aggregating 766 grams (1 pound 11 ounces) of the El Perdido aérolite from Argentina, South America. An interesting series of lava in fantastical shapes from the recent volcanic eruption in Nicaragua was received from Doctor Herbert J. Spinden. Thirty-six kegs and boxes of cubic lead ore (galen- ite) were received from Tar River, Oklahoma, the material being given by the Laclede Lead and Zinc Mining Company, but collected by a Museum expedition. The Bement Collection of Minerals 67 MINERALS AND GEMS* Hervert P. WHITLOCK, Curator The General Collection of minerals, which, from its excep- tionally fine nucleus of the Bement Collection, has grown year by year, now numbers about 20,000 exhibited The Morgan specimens, representing a very considerable in- aie crease. In thus adding to the notably fine col- lection presented to the Museum in 1900 by the late J. Pierpont Morgan, the policy of acquiring handsome and interesting specimens, as well as those furnishing species not hitherto represented in the series, has been consistently adhered to. The Collection at present includes a higher per- centage of the known mineral species than in 1900. This is largely due to the fact that it has been possible to acquire newly discovered minerals with much greater facility than those rare species brought to light during the last century, the specimens of which, for the most part, have found their way into the public and private collections of Europe. The Mineral Collection now averages 85 per cent. of the known species, an average which is highly creditable. A series of the opal wood replacements from Nevada have been placed in the accession case at the entrance of the Morgan Hall of Minerals. These specimens, many of which are of gem quality, are highly representa- tive of this most unique occurrence and furnish a most suggestive key to the general problem of organic re- placements of this type. The growing interest, both popular and scientific, in atomic structure, as related to crystallization, has led to the experi- mental construction of a number of models with a view to visualizing these atomic relations. These have been used suc- Special Exhibits * Under the Department of Mineralogy (see also pages 203 to 205). 68 Report of the President cessfully as demonstration models before small audiences, and have led to the inception of an extended series, now in course of construction, the object of which will be to present the new idea of crystallography as a special exhibit in two flat wall cases between the window space on the north wall of the Mineral Hall. During the year the Department was called upon by the Bray Studios to furnish suggestions and illustrative material for motion picture films of a popular educational earennee character, covering mineralogical subjects. This cooperation has resulted in the production of the following educational films: Gem Cutting and Polishing, Mys- teries of the Snow, Dew, In Nature’s Treasure House, Win- dow Frost. The preparation of a classified list of the new crystal forms of minerals which have been announced since the publication Roe of the Index der Krystallformen der Mineralien, and by V. Goldschmidt, has been undertaken. This Publications = work, which covers the mineralogical literature of the past 25 years and involves some 5,000 entries, is now well advanced. Its publication in the Museum Bulletin will place in the hands of the research worker in Crystallography a means of judging as to whether an observed crystal form is new to the species under investigation, without the necessity of a laborious search through the voluminous and widely scat- tered literature of the subject. Two short papers have been published during the year, one in the Report of the Director of the New York State Museum for 1917, and the other in The American Mineralogist. Among the notable additions to the Collections during the past year, are included 5 species not heretofore represented. Three small but characteristic specimens of the newly discovered zeolite ferrierite from Kam- loops Lake, British Columbia, were presented by Dr. W. D. Ferrier, after whom the mineral was named. A specimen Accessions Minerals and Gems 69 showing the association of the two rare hydrated copper silicates bisbeeite and shattuckite, from Bisbee, Arizona, was presented by Mr. George S. Scott. A massive specimen of the new tungsten sulphide, tungstenite, and a series of 12 pseudo- morphous crystals of cuprotungstite after scheelite, were pur- chased through the Bruce Fund. Other noteworthy accessions include magnificent series of I4 precious opal wood replacements which have been noted above, a beautiful group of pyromorphite crystals developed on both sides of the specimens from Ems, Nassau, Germany, a large and handsome group of crystallized willemite associ- ated with mimetite from Utah, a notably fine specimen of crystallized silver from Chihuahua, Mexico, two large nod- ules of native antimony, one of which is polished, from Kern County, California, a very large and handsome specimen of carnotite replacing wood from Naturita, Colorado, three speci- mens showing remarkably large and perfect crystals of apophyllite from Great Notch, New Jersey, and a finely crys- tallized specimen of orpiment from the Island of Yesso, Japan. 70 Report of the President WOODS AND FORESTRY* M. C. Dickerson, Curator Great satisfaction is felt in the work of Mr. Milton D. Copulos during 1919 in reproduction from the life of sprays of tree foliage, fruit and flowers. The work is unexcelled in the perfection of accuracy and delicacy. The sprays are com- parable with the glass flowers of Harvard in beauty and ac- curacy, but surpass them in naturalness, a result of the dif- ferent medium and the subtle appreciation of the creative artist. Sprays especially deserving mention—the living material for which was secured through the courtesy of friends of the Museum—are blue ash (Fraxinus quadrangulata) from In- diana, Mexican walnut (Juglans rupestris) from Arizona, and western cherry laurel (Prunus ilicifolia) from California. The work on these combines the arts of sculptor and painter in a result of artistic realism that deceives the most expert scientific observer. Again, however, funds have not been available for the mural paintings under discussion for the Woods and Forestry Hall, or for the work so optimistically planned during a con- siderable series of years to install group and case exhibits set- ting forth the principles of forestry and forest conservation and thus increase the Museum’s practical educational value in this line. Mr. Barrington Moore, Associate Curator for part of the year preceding the outbreak of the war, found on his return from France at the war’s close, that his time was too fully occupied as editor of the Bulletin of the Ecological So- ciety of America and with private silvicultural research to con- tinue full-time connection with the Museum. He has, there- fore, served as Research Associate for 1919. Fortunately, it is true that the hall as it stands, while having only a fraction of educational value commensurate with its opportunity in the heart of New York City, does, nevertheless, a great work as * Under the Department of Woods and Forestry (see also page 205). Public School Use of Forestry Collection apa laboratory for the New York high schools; especially during Regents’ week, twice a year, when it is filled with large classes of boys and girls each equipped with sets of questions for orig- inal investigation. The hall has served well during 1919 as an illustration of the lack of space and congestion of exhibits in all parts of the building. The food conservation exhibit prepared by the De- partment of Public Health of the Museum and displayed in Grand Central Station in 1918, has occupied the main aisle through the hall’s whole length—something to the detriment of both lines of work. 72 Report of the President EXISTING INVERTEBRATES* Henry Epwarp Crampton, Curator The past year has witnessed the resumption of full activity in every one of the normal lines of the department’s work. In exhibition, increase and care of the study collections, in research and publication, and in renewed field investigation, the retrospect is most satisfactory, and reveals substantial progress, both as regards the routine of the department and also in the furtherance of the larger purposes which are held steadily in view. The Bryozoa Group has engaged the chief energies of the technical staff, and this is now completed, ready for reassembly and installation in the Darwin Hall. This is a Darwin Hall notable addition to the series of habitat groups, with which it is in general harmony, although it is unique in its display of minute animals as they appear largely magnified. Besides the Bryozoa colonies which are the central features, the marine plants and other organisms asso- ciated with them are fully exhibited ; the models are numerous and have required exceptional care and study for their con- struction. Indeed, Mr. Miner’s direction of the work has been particularly engrossing, for it has involved the most care- ful scientific study of the organisms as well as the devising of novel methods in order that the result may be zodlogically accurate, permanent and pleasing. Several individual items have been added to the Synoptic Series, among which the peculiar Proterospongia may be mentioned. Other models have been prepared for the Phylogeny Chart to be placed in the Darwin Hall, and for a similar display in the Synoptic Hall of Mammals. Additional museum cases have been remodeled, and this task is now completed for half of the hall. Progress has been * Under the Department of Invertebrate Zodlogy (see also pages 205 to 209). Educational Use of Darwin Hail 7B made on the next habitat group which will show the crustacea and associates of a selected area of the bottom of Vineyard Sound, off Gay Head, Massachusetts. Plans are under way for a Rotifer Group, which will be a companion in principle and in location to the Bryozoa Group, and plans are also progressing for a California Shore Group, centering about the Echinoderms of Monterey Bay. The educational value of the Darwin Hall has been greater than ever, for during the year, 11,454 pupils, belonging to 403 classes from 218 institutions, studied the exhibits under the tutelage of their instructors. Of the institutions represented, 75 are out of town, 157 are public schools, 41 private schools, 12 parochial schools, and 8 are colleges. An extension of the educational work con- sists of a series of beautifully colored illustrations showing many of the notable exhibits, which were prepared under Mr. Miner’s direction for publication in the New York Tribune. The work of arranging and cataloguing the general inver- tebrates has been completed by Dr. Van Name, and the col- lections are now in final condition. Current General accessions have been incorporated in the gen- eucntaerate eral series, with an ease that proves the correct- ness and practicability of the department’s sys- tem. Mr. Frank J. Myers has given largely of his time and energies to the group of Rotifera, which he has recatalogued and remounted when desirable, bringing the nomenclature to date in all cases; furthermore, he has generously added to the collection so that it is becoming one of the most complete series in existence. An important addition is a series of iden- tified annulates from the West Indies, received from Pro- fessor Aaron L. Treadwell. Mr. Arthur Jacot has devoted his energies to the cataloguing and rearrangement of the ma- rine gastropods. This work has involved to date the -writing of 13,900 departmental catalogue cards and 9,600 reference cards. 74 Report of the President An extensive exhibit has been installed in the Hall of In- sects, which consists of representative specimens illustrating the insect fauna of the northeastern United Sones and States. Pages from the “Field Book of In- sects,’ by Dr. Lutz, are used as labels for this exhibit, and by this unique method the value to the student is greatly increased. Cooperation with specialists outside of the Museum has been continued with mutual advantage, es- pecially in the case of the New York Entomological Society, which has charge of the Collection of Local Insects. The col- lections at large are in better condition than ever before, and their growth during the last year has been greater than the average of 50,000 per annum for the last decade. The staff have been unusually successful in caring for the current acces- sions, and in the prosecution of their researches. Dr. Bequaert has continued his services as a temporary assistant. Mr. A. C. Kinsey, of the Bussey Institution, has devoted considerable time to the arrangement of the cynipid wasps and the charac- teristic galls made by them, especially on oaks and roses; his important papers concerning these insects and the curious alternation of generations in their life history will be pub- lished in the Bulletin. Mr. Carl Heinrich, of the United States Department of Agriculture, spent three weeks at the Museum arranging the Kearfott Collection of Microlepidop- tera which the Museum acquired several years ago, partly by purchase and partly by gift. In general, these are the moths whose larve roll leaves or live inside the substance of leaves or stems. This collection contains a great many type speci- mens, but, aside from that feature, its importance in facilitat- ing the work of identifying subsequently received material is its completeness, as indicated by the fact that, in the family Olethreutide, it contains 485 of the 533 species listed from the United States. The collection was received in a somewhat confused condition, but Mr. Heinrich’s work makes it avail- able for use.

Work was carried on mainly in Moorea, an island near Tahiti, with results far beyond expectation in their value and significance. The volume dealing with the Moorean species and their progressive evolution under natural conditions is nearing completion. Dr. Lutz took the field in the prosecution of the survey west of the rooth meridian, a line of work that was initiated in 1916 by studies in the vicinity of Tucson, where there are moun- tains somewhat isolated by plains of the Lower Sonoran faunal area. This year nearly three months were spent by Dr. Lutz in Colorado, who obtained material from a number of localities ranging from typical Upper Sonoran plains to the snow line. This work was made possible partly by the generosity of Dr. Pearce Bailey; and Dr. Lutz had the volun- teer assistance of Messrs. Herbert F. Schwarz and Pearce Bailey, Jr. More than 23,000 specimens were secured, and these have all been mounted and will soon be ready for study. In our chosen field of the West Indies, through the generosity of Mr. B. Preston Clark, Mr. Watson is engaged in supple- menting the work done by Mr. Grossbeck in Jamaica. As Mr. Grossbeck’s collecting was done in early spring and Mr. Watson visited Jamaica in December, we are certain to secure most interesting additions to our material from this island, which is, to some extent, the key to the problems concerned with distribution in the West Indies. Mr. Arthur Jacot spent a month during the summer in field-work in the vicinity of New York, collecting an extensive series of the marine and fresh-water Mollusca from characteristic localities of the neighborhood. 76 Report of the President Unusual success has been attained in the field of research, both on the part of members of the departmental staff and also by collaborators who have generously given Research their time and energy to working up collections or belonging to the Museum. The Curator has made substantial progress on the second volume of the series dealing with evolution in the genus Partula. Mr. Miner has continued his work on the bibliography and syn- onymy of the myriapods and has also virtually completed a paper on a fossil representative of the group. Dr. Lutz, with the codperation of Professor Cockerell, has completed a not- able work on the taxonomy and distribution of the higher bees of North America. Dr. Van Name has continued his investigations on the ascidians of the West Indies. Mr. Mutchler has cooperated with Dr. Lutz in compiling an ex- tensive annotated list of the type specimens of insects, other than Lepidoptera and ants, in the Museum collections. Mr. Watson has made progress in his studies on Lepidoptera. The record of completed researches, as given below, is most note- worthy; the papers already published and now in press deal mainly with the Congo Collections, and in some cases with the material obtained by the Crocker Land Expedition, al- though several others are listed. The accomplishment, as re- gards papers published in the Bulletin for 1919 or ready for publication, is as follows: C. P. Alexander, “Tipulide of the American Museum Congo Expedition,” in press; F.

Departmental expeditions secured much material both for purposes of research and for the enlargement of the study collections. Curator Crampton se- cured a series of representative insects in the Yosemite Valley, and, in addition to his research material, a collection of crus- taceans, myriapods, arachnids and insects was made in the Society Islands. Dr. Lutz’s expedition to Colorado secured more than 23,000 insects. Mr. Watson obtained numerous insects of various orders and much biological material from the vicinity of New York. Mr. Jacot obtained many inver- tebrates, chiefly Mollusca, from Staten Island and from one or two localities in Connecticut. Additions to Fish Collections 79 RECENT AND EXTINCT FISHES* BasuFrorp Dean, Honorary Curator Joun T. Nicuois, Associate Curator of Recent Fishes, in Charge Limited exhibition space has left little room for placing more fishes on view; in fact, several desirable exhibition specimens are now held in reserve until there Garerand be opportunity to show them to advantage. For Hove opment reasons of economy there have been no pur- Collections chases or notable expeditions to secure new material, except that Mr. Robert C. Murphy of the Brooklyn Museum, now in Peru, has been commissioned to make a collection of marine fishes. He will give especial attention to securing fishes of the group known as “‘crevallies,” which the department plans to monograph for the world. His collection should also bring to the Museum specimens of other fishes which occur off Peru, of interest in a study of the relation of life to the remarkable ocean current system of the west coast of America. The one notable addition to the study collections actually received, is by gift from Mr. Louis L. Mowbray of about 470 specimens from Bermuda and Turk’s Island in the Bahamas. For a number of years Mr. Mowbray has been accumulating a collection of rare or in- teresting fishes. He has been in close touch with our depart- ment throughout, and has planned, when he could find time to do so, to work up this material here. Recently, when leav- ing New York to take charge of a new Aquarium to be erected at Miami, Florida, he placed the entire collection in the American Museum where it could be properly cared for and promptly studied. This addition helps complete our representation of fishes of the West Indian Region. Such spare time as the laboratory assistant (Mr. Kessler) has had from the actual physical care of the collections and * Under the Department of Ichthyology (see also page 209). 8o Report of the President similar duties, has been given to the preparation of study skeletons, about seventy being added to those already ayail- able. Such fish skeletons have been classified and arranged for ready reference in the unused cases prepared for fossil fishes. As the latter are added to, new quarters, however, will have to be found for the skeletons. Work on the final volume of the “Bibliography of Fishes” which had been all but suspended during the war, and which E h came to a standstill in January when Mrs. H. J. esearc and Volker resigned to accompany her husband to Publication India, has been again resumed and has made rapid progress. Professor E. W. Gudger, who had been with us in previous summers, arrived in June to assume the re- sponsibilities of editorship under Dr. Dean’s supervision. Mr. Arthur W. Henn returned from France about the same time, and Miss Francesca La Monte was appointed in July to fill the vacancy created by Mrs. Volker’s resignation. Progress has since been rapid and continuous. Dr. Gudger has practically completed the compilation, arrangement and editing of the section relating to pre-Linnzan works, including all books, papers and periodicals published from the inven- tion of the printing press to the publication of the 1oth Edition of Linneus’ “Systema Natura” of 1758, which work marks the inception of modern scientific nomenclature. It is expected that this section will go to press shortly after the first of the year. The Addendum, comprising titles overlooked or other- wise not included in the published volumes I and II, has been completed and is awaiting final editorial revision. Work on the subject index has been resumed by Mr. Henn, and all index cards for the published volumes are now in process of final arrangement and classification. Preparation of systematic papers from time to time is inci- dental to caring for new collections, as these are received, and such papers naturally take the form of faunal reports. Systematic work of a monographic nature is, however, more interesting, valuable to Ichthyology, and satisfactory in every way. Leisure for serious research has enabled taking up such Research on Fishes SI a study of a group of marine fishes with world-wide distribu- tion, the crevallies. The literature pertaining to these fishes has first been gone over, compiled, and bound in a brief manuscript review of the group. With this as a basis, it is planned to attack the subject in detail as American Museum material makes this possible. The first short paper of a series it is hoped to submit during the course of this under- taking was published in the Bulletin, December, 1918; a second has been submitted for publication there; a third has been prepared, but is held pending receipt of Peruvian collections which should bear on its subject matter. A note on a rare crevally from Bermuda has just been published in Copeia. Whereas it has been possible to give such work priority, collections must in fairness be worked up as they are received. Two papers describing new South American fresh-water fishes, sent here by that institution, have been submitted to the Museu Paulista, Sao Paulo, Brazil, for publication in English and Portuguese, and work on extensive collections of Bermuda and Turk’s Island fishes is in progress. The more important papers on fishes published by members of the department during 1919 are “Six new fishes from Northwestern Canada,” by Francis Harper and J. T. Nichols (in the American Museum Bulletin) ; “On Caranx guara from Bermuda,” J. T. Nichols (in Copeia) ; and the following three titles by E. W. Gudger: “The Myth of the Ship-holder” (Annals and Maga- zine of Natural History) ; “The Ovary of the Gaff-topsail Cat- fish; its Structure and Function” (published by the Carnegie Institution of Washington) ; “On the Use of the Sucking Fish for Catching Fish and Turtles” (American Naturalist). 82 Report of the President EXISTING REPTILES AND AMPHIBIANS* M. C. Dickerson, Curator The year has been a relatively fortunate one regarding enrichment of the department’s study collections. The new material accessioned numbers 10,084 specimens, about three times the amount received in 1918, and four times that of 1917. Two thousand of the 10,000 specimens have been acquired by purchase and are largely South American, although a few lots are from China. About 1,000, from North America, South America, and the Orient, have come through exchange, in part for exhibition material in the shape of casts from life prepared in the Ameri- can Museum. Nearly 1,000 specimens, mostly North American, have been gifts. The department is particularly grateful for this remem- brance by friends of the institution, many of them boys and girls of our high schools. The donors are 52 in number; the specimens for the most part were sent alive and thus in splen- did condition for research or for use in preparation of casts; in some instances they were of unusual scientific value, like Amphiardis inornatus from Sapulpa, Oklahoma, a small snake known previously only from the type. Among the gifts from other than North American localities are small collections from Australia, Formosa, France and Brazil. The largest accessions have been from expeditions. Con- siderably more than 1,000 specimens were collected during the Museum’s reptile field work in Mexico, also a like number on the reptile expedition to Porto Rico under the auspices of the New York Academy of Sciences in codperation with the American Museum. Other valuable lots have come through local work by members of the department, and through cooper- ation with the New York Zoological Society in its work at the The Collections * Under the Department of Herpetology (see also pages 210 to 212). Growth of Reptile Collections ees Tropical Research Station in British Guiana; while about 500 specimens were collected on an expedition to the Huachuca Mountains, Arizona. Such rapid building up of the collections is of vital import- ance, because all research—taxonomic, distributional, or mor- phological, as well as all exhibition, is based on the collections. The department, being still considerably under ten years of age, differs from the other departments of the institution, many of which are a half century old, in having relatively meager and inadequate reference material. Attention must be cen- tered on building up this material for several years before the department will be in a position to do its most efficient and authoritative work. Constructive work on the catalogues and collections, out- side that covered in course of the various lines of research in progress, includes identification of all West Indian material, of the collection of Nicaraguan lizards, and of the large amount of North American live material received during the summer months. A new tray system of storage has been in- augurated by which accumulation of dust on the collections is avoided and the species of a given genus are kept and handled together. Considerable attention has been given to the department’s osteological collections. The salientian skeletons now number 98 (28 genera and 58 species), three-fourths of which have been prepared by the Schultze technique during the present year. It is possibly the largest collection of salientian skele- tons in America as regards the number of different forms. It appears to be second only to that of the British Museum (which possessed in 1916 about 200 specimens of about 50 different genera), and to supplement that collection in includ- ing a number of genera not represented there. Dissections of lizards, representing many species of 12 iguanid genera, to show hyoid and shoulder girdle have been prepared in connec- tion with the work on Lower California and the Southwest. Ten lizard skulls have been prepared. In connection with the research on the myology and osteology of lizards a consider- able series of skeletons suitable for exhibition is in preparation. 84 Report of the President Work by Assistant Curator G. K. Noble on the amphibians of the Museum’s Congo collections is completed. It includes a survey of species of the Congo and a check list Research and with keys of all African amphibians. Among Publication : E : morphological problems having taxonomic bear- ing discussed are the development of the vertebral column of Xenopus mullert, and the relations of the shoulder girdles and anterior limb bones of the species of 4 genera, illustrated with I5 microphotographs. It will form a volume of the American Museum’s Congo reports in the Bulletin. The staff was increased in October when Mr. C. L. Camp, formerly of the University of California, returned from France. His thesis on the “Comparative Myology and Oste- ology of the Lizards” for Ph.D. at Columbia University, will be prepared as a part of the work of the department, and pub- lished in the American Museum Bulletin. The work includes much dissection and permanent record in a form adapted for exhibition purposes, of comparative studies of musculature and skeletons. It covers also detailed study of new fossil material from the Eocene and Oligocene of North America, attempts to correlate the muscles of existing lizards with those of other vertebrates, especially the Dinosauria, and to point out the rela- tions of muscles and skeletons to the classification of lizards and to their adaptive radiation. Work on the snakes of the Congo, by K. P. Schmidt, to accompany his volume on Congo crocodiles, lizards and turtles, is nearly ready for publication. It contains a resumé of the distribution of African reptiles. In the work on the lizard fauna of Lower California and the Southwest by the Associate Curator, a paper was issued in the Bulletin giving synopses of 23 new species and a new genus, preliminary to the larger paper on the reviews of genera with illustrations, maps and keys. In the comparative study of shoulder girdles of iguanid genera, especial interest attaches to the new genus in its position between Uta and Sceloporus and its relation to more ancient arboreal forms. Other papers published in 1919 are, in the Bulletin, ‘“De- scriptions of New Amphibians and Reptiles from Santo Do- Exhibition of Reptiles 85 mingo and Navassa’ (introducing a new tree frog and a new lizard from Santo Domingo and 5 new lizards from Navassa Island), by K. P. Schmidt; in Copeia, “Rediscovery of Am- phiardis inornatus Garman,” by K. P. Schmidt. A paper on “Some New Batrachians from Colombia,” by G. K. Noble, is ready for press; Mr. Noble is also joint author with Thomas Barbour of a paper, published in the Bulletin of the Museum of Comparative Zodlogy, on “Amphibians from Northwestern Peru; Courtesies received from other institutions in the shape of temporary loan or opportunity for examination of material in connection with research are as follows: Collections of African amphibians and African snakes, Museum of Compara- tive Zodlogy at Harvard College; and collections of African amphibians, Museum of the University of Michigan. A con- siderable collection of unidentified snakes from Kamerun, Africa, has been loaned by the Museum of Comparative Zo- ology for identification. The exhibition work has continuéd as in former years in preparation of casts from life for the synoptic series, of speci- mens as obtained for an exhibit covering the Exhibition poisonous snakes of North America, and of the animals and plant forms for the two large habi- tat groups in hand, namely, the Florida Gopher Turtle and the New Zealand Hatteria. The artists and preparators experi- enced in making these herpetology exhibits have had the pleas- urable opportunity on several occasions during the year to demonstrate the methods of the work to guests from museums in other parts of the world. Work in the field has been necessarily limited in amount. Some local collecting by the members of the department has been done, especially on the New Jersey pine barrens. The two months’ survey of Porto Rico and the neighboring islands by Mr. Schmidt resulted, in addi- tion to the large representative collection, in the accumulation of a large body of facts regarding habits and life histories and the addition of a species of snake and 6 species of tree frogs, Expeditions 86 Report of the President 5 of them new, to the island’s known fauna. The collection made by Mr. R. D. Camp during three months in southeastern Arizona is especially rich in lizards and proves the area of the Huachuca Mountains a veritable center for differentiation and distribution of at least one genus, Holbrookia. The ex- pedition in Mexico under Mr. Paul Ruthling has worked in the region of Mexico City, Vera Cruz, and Guadalajara, Jal- isco, with total collections covering about 60 genera and 100 species. te Sei ine ky Pca cee oy aM.

A. Atten, Curator The additions to the collection of mammals number 476 specimens, of which 210 were received by gift, 66 by exchange and 200 by purchase. The latter include 130 from British Guiana, secured through the co- Operation of the New York Zoological Society, under the di- rection of C. William Beebe, director of its British Guiana Tropical Research Station. They consist mainly of medium sized species, chiefly monkeys and carnivores, and include many skeletons as well as skins and skulls, this collection forming the most important collection of mammals the Museum has ever received from this part of South America. Other specimens purchased were a number of important de- siderata for exhibition. Many specimens have been received in the flesh, some of them of great value, from the New York Zoological Society’s Menagerie in New York City. The usual number has also been received from the New York City De- partment of Parks. Other gifts include a collection of 65 small mammals from France, presented by Mr. James P. Chapin, Assistant Curator of Ornithology. The accessions to the ornithological collection number about 4,225, of which 625 were received by gift, about 350 by exchange, 20 by purchase, and 3,227 from Museum expedi- tions, collected in Venezuela and Peru. About Ioo of those ac- quired by gift were received in the flesh, in large part from the New York Zoological Society. The gifts also include about 80 sets of birds’ eggs. Accessions Mr. Roy C. Andrews, Associate Curator of Mammals of the Eastern Hemisphere, has continued his work in Northern China and Mongolia as chief of the Museum's Second Asiatic Zodlogical Expedition, but none of the rich material thus obtained reached the Museum during Field Work aia the Department of Mammalogy and Ornithology (see also pages 212 to 216). 88 Report of the President 1919. Late advices indicate that his efforts have been extraor- dinarily successful. His field work ended late in November, and preparations for his return with the collections early in 1920 were unden way. His collection of mammals numbers about 2,000 specimens and comprises good series for mounting of the larger game animals of the region, including the Argali, Goral, Takin, Elk and Deer. The smaller species are repre- sented in large series, the collection as a whole forming the most important ever procured, by a single expedition, in eastern Asia. Mr. H. E. Anthony, Associate Curator of Mammals of the Western Hemisphere, left New York in November on an ex- pedition to Jamaica for an intensive exploration of the island for fossil and recent mammals. A preliminary report indi- cates that the results of his field work will prove of high im- portance, especially in respect to the extinct mammal fauna of Jamaica. Mr. H. Watkins is continuing his field work in Peru, from whom about 2,500 bird skins have been received during the present year. The indexing and rearrangement of the research collection of mammals has made progress, although the work has been greatly retarded by the absence of two members Palate Foee of the staff during the greater part of the year, Associate Curator Andrews having been in the field as head of the Second Asiatic Expedition, while Asso- ciate Curator Anthony was retained in the United States mili- tary service during the early months of the year. On his re- turn to the Museum in April, he took up the work of identify- ing and distributing recently accumulated material. Rather more than a thousand specimens of North American mam- mals were identified and installed in their proper sequence, and similar work was begun on the large accumulation of South American specimens. The department was unfor- tunately deprived of the services of Albert E. Lurch through his illness and death later in the year, thus further reducing the force, removing a faithful and efficient assistant whose DEPARTMENT OF MAMMALOGY Tue Panpa or BEAR RACCOON. The Only Specimen in This Country of This Rare Animal from Tibet Mammals and Birds 89 years of service and familiarity with the collection of mammals had made him invaluable and difficult to replace. The cataloguing of the recent accessions of birds has been continued, including some 3,500 specimens from South Amer- ica, also the Congo collection. The nests and eggs have been brought into better order and the additions of recent years duly incorporated. The rearrangement of the exhibition collection of mammals and additions of new groups have been continued with excel- Exhibition lent results, especially noteworthy in the revised Collection Hall of Primates. Practically all the single specimens have been removed from their conspicuous polished cherry pedestals, those mounted on limbs being placed directly on the back of the case and those walking on all fours placed on inconspicuous rock bases. Under the supervision of Mr. Peters, the group of Orangs has been rearranged and the conventional foliage—the best that could be obtained thirty-five years ago—replaced by ac- tual reproduction of the leaves of the Durian. Good progress has also been made in the Hall of North American Mammals. Aside from the fine group of Timber Wolves, a number of single specimens of characteristic mam- mals have been added to fill gaps in the series. Mammals Steady improvement is being made in the systematic series of birds by mounting desirable specimens received from the Zoological Park to fill gaps in the series or to replace similar, but poor examples, while many of the old, but valuable birds, have been skilfully remounted by Mr. Engel. The entire collection, and the cases, have been cleaned, and the actual condition and appearance of the collection are bet- ter than ever before. Birds 90 Report of the President Research work has been restricted mainly to the Congo and South American collections. A paper by Mr. Anthony on fos- 2 h sil material collected by him in Cuba in 1917 has esearc 5 5 . and been prepared for publication in the Museum Publication = Bulletin, describing two additional new species of mammals. He has also prepared a short paper on new forms of mammals from South America, based on recently acquired collections. This paper will soon appear in the Journal of Mammalogy (by permission of the Museum author- ities). Two papers by the Curator have been published dur- ing the year in the Bulletin, entitled “Severtzow’s Classifica- tion of the Felide’ (Vol. XLI, pp. 335-340), and “Notes on the Synonymy and Nomenclature of the Smaller Spotted Cats of Tropical America” (idem, pp. 341-419, figs. 1-31). The report on the Carnivora of the Congo Collection was finished during the first half of the year, and later the report on the Primates was begun, the part relating to the Anthropoid Apes being now ready for the press. The Curator has been greatly assisted in this work by Mr. Lang, who is also prepar- ing the ecological matter that will form an important feature of these reports. As noted in the Curator’s report for the year 1918, the paper on the Insectivora was then in press, but its publication is still deferred owing to delay in the preparation of the part containing the field notes and allied matter that is to accompany the systematic part. So much matter is now ready for the press that it has been decided by the Publication Committee to devote a volume of the Bulletin exclusively to the papers on Congo mammals, for which the manuscript and illus- trations are now ready, and the greater part was handed to the editor, or placed at his call as wanted, early in November. In consequence of the prospective long delay in the publica- tion of the report on the Carnivora of the Congo Collection, it seemed desirable to issue a preliminary paper on this group, covering some of its more important results. Accordingly in June last this was prepared, and, with the approval of the Museum authorities, sent to the editor of the Journal of Mam- malogy, where it appeared under the title “Preliminary Notes on African Carnivores” (Vol. I, No. 1, pp. 23-31, Nov. 28, 1919). Publications on Birds and Mammals QI Curator Chapman, on his return from Red Cross work in South America and in France, resumed his research work on South American birds, and has published three preliminary papers describing new forms, as follows: “Descriptions of new Birds from Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Chile” (Bulletin, XLI, pp. 323-333) ; “A new race of the Killdeer from the coast of Peru” (The Auk, Jan., 1920, pp. 105-108) ; “Descriptions of new Birds from Peru, Bolivia, Brazil and Colombia” (Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, XXXII, pp. 253-268). Associate Curator Miller has continued his studies of the pterylosis and visceral anatomy of birds received in the flesh, and (with Mr. Griscom) also his work on the “Birds of Nicaragua.” He has ready for publication a paper on the “Classification of Wood- peckers and their Allies,” and another on the “Classification of the Kingfishers.” He has also published a number of short articles in The Auk. 92 Report of the President EXTINGD VERTEBRATESS Henry FArrFIELD Osporn, Honorary Curator W. D. MatrHew, Curator The limited appropriation for field work was supplemented by a special appropriation of the proceeds of sale of duplicate skeletons of Moropus from the Agate Quarry, Field Work : : : enabling us to continue operations at that locality. In the early part of the year Associate Curator Brown in- vestigated a number of prospects in Oklahoma and northern Texas. Mr. Albert Thomson, assisted by Mr. George Olsen, con- tinued operations during the summer in the great fossil quarry at Agate, Neb. An extensive new cut was made on the north side of the quarry. It proved, how- ever, to be comparatively barren of fossils, the layer thinning out all along this edge. From the richer part of the quarry a section was selected especially suitable to be preserved and exhibited at the Museum in the block. This block, showing 16 skulls and corresponding numbers of skele- ton bones within a space of 5% by 8 feet, was skilfully lifted, boxed and brought to the Museum without damage. Its weight when boxed was about 6,000 pounds. Several other valuable fossil specimens were obtained from the quarry and vicinity. Expedition to Nebraska In November, Mr. H. E. Anthony, assisted by Mr. Charles Falkenbach, undertook an expedition for living and extinct mammals, to the island of Jamaica. No fossil vertebrates, except for a single skull of a marine mammal, were known from this island, but a consideration of the conditions in this and other West Indian Expedition to Jamaica * Under the Department of Vertebrate Paleontology (see also page 216). Explorations for Fossils 93 islands made it appear highly probable that some land verte- brates formerly existed there, and the geology indicated that caves probably existed similar to those in Porto Rico and Cuba from which Mr. Anthony had secured such large and interest- ing collections of fossil mammals, and that they might also yield fossils. Preliminary reports from Mr. Anthony leave us no doubt that this forecast has been verified, but the extent and character of the collections remain to be seen. The char- acter of this fauna will be studied with particular interest, as it should throw further light on the source of the fauna and the manner of its arrival on the islands. The geology of the West Indies indicates that the most probable locus for a main- land connection, if the fauna arrived in that manner, is by way of Haiti, Jamaica and Honduras. Obviously if the animals did arrive in that manner, the fauna of Jamaica ought to be more like that of the mainland than those of any of the other islands—more continental in type. On the other hand, if the animals, or rather their ancestors, arrived on the islands through the agency of storms, floating vegetation or other accidents of oversea transportation, without the aid of any continuous land bridge, then Jamaica, as a rather small and isolated island, should have a more scanty and insular fauna than the larger and more central islands of Cuba and His- paniola, perhaps even more so than Porto Rico. A partial skeleton of a small pterodactyl, or flying reptile, from the Cretaceous chalk beds of Kansas, was purchased from the discoverer, Mr. C. H. Sternberg. Another interest- ing specimen purchased from Mr. Sternberg is the hinder half of the skeleton of the gigantic extinct bear, Arctotherium, from the Rock Creek beds of Texas. The bones are finely preserved, and considerably larger than the corresponding parts of the great Alaskan Brown Bears. Steady progress has been made in revising and rearranging the storage collections of fossil mammals in charge of Asso- ciate Curator Granger. Various specimens and casts in the Warren Collection, most of them without any records of their identity or locality, were identified through published figures, references or other Cataloguing and Storage 04 Report of the President means by which it was possible to recognize them with cer- tainty, and were duly catalogued, numbered and fully re- corded in the department catalogue. Their value was thus greatly enhanced. The routine of cataloguing, labeling, re- labeling and rearranging collections for more convenient ref- erence or saving of space has been carried forward as usual. The preparation of the Alberta dinosaur collections was continued with vigor, and considerable progress was made. : The fine carnivorous dinosaur skeleton secured Preparation ) Ate from Mr. Sternberg in 1918 has been mounted Exhibition as a panel in an interesting and characteristic pose, contrasting with the skeleton of a larger species finished a year ago, which is also mounted as a panel, but placed sub- stantially in its position as found in the rock. Two other skeletons of large carnivorous dinosaurs from Alberta are in course of preparation, one planned as an “open mount,” the other asa panel. A partial skeleton of Palaeoscincus, showing the bony armor of the neck and forequarters in place behind the skull, has been further prepared but not yet completed; this is a very difficult specimen but highly instructive as to the body armor of the Armored Dinosaurs. A mounted skeleton of Moschops, a large and very remark- able reptile from the ancient Permian Karroo formation of South Africa, has been placed on exhibition, temporarily installed in the Hall of the Age of Mammals, near the entrance. This is a very strange and odd-looking reptile, with short tail and small hind- quarters, and a very short, deep, massive head, suggesting that of the muskox to which its scientific name alludes ; but the pro- portions and pose of the body and legs carry more suggestion of the walrus, squat, massive, clumsy-looking, and dispropor- tionately small behind. It should command respect, however, on account of its great antiquity, for it belongs to the Permian period of the Paleozoic, before the dawn of the Age of Reptiles. A skeleton of Pieranodon, the giant Flying Reptile, has been mounted and placed on the wall of the corridon diag- Extinct Reptiles KX mais R— ‘BLOqT YW Wolf atyday [Issoyy « HLOOT, ATAINAAL,,,— NOGONTaq ASOTIOLINOAVIVd ALVAIALNAA AO LNAWLAVdaAd ” ~ OR WN \ a WS D.REBRPJKK&K SE A \ EK ——WWRE Extinct Mammals 95 onally across from the elevator. This specimen was pur- chased from the finder, Handel T. Martin, and comes from the Cretaceous chalk formation of western Kansas, like the ad- joining skeletons on the wall, the great marine lizard Tylosaurus below it, and the great fish Portheus above it. The missing parts are painted in on the chalky background, and the supposed outlines of the wing membranes are restored in a very light tint. This skeleton is believed to be the first original skeleton of Pteranodon to be placed on exhibition in an American museum; but there has been one (also found by Mr. Martin) in the British Museum for some years past. The collections from the Pleistocene of Cuba obtained by Mr. Brown’s expedition in 1918 have been fully prepared for study; also those obtained by Mr. Thomson in the same year at the Snake Creek fossil locality in western Nebraska. Considerable preparation work was done upon Eocene and Paleocene mammals during the year, chiefly upon small and delicate specimens of much scientific importance but of no great exhibition value. Various speci- mens of fossil crocodiles, of oreodonts and of proboscideans were cleaned and prepared, mostly for study purposes. A much crushed skull of Elephas columbi was pre- pared and placed on exhibition, and a number of casts of Siwalik proboscideans were mounted on panels in the exhibi- tion cases. The mounting of a skeleton of the primitive mas- todon Trilophodon is under way. Other additions are com- pleted or in progress to the series of extinct elephants and mastodons, which is one of the finest features of the Museum’s exhibits of fossil vertebrates. The restoration of the crushed skeleton of the giant bird Diatryma has been undertaken in order to make an articulated mount of the specimen. The most difficult and puzzling part of it, the skull, has been satisfactorily reconstructed; no very serious difficulties are expected in the rebuilding of the remainder of the skeleton. Extinct Mammals g6 Report of the President The Hall of the Age of Man has been improved by an exhibit illustrating the genealogy or phylogeny of man and his relationships to the higher apes, living and Apelof Man extinct, as known from fossil remains and the Hall comparison of existing species. An important change was made in the arrangement of this hall by moving the Groundsloth and Glyptodon groups over against the south wall, combining them into one and adding the Scelidotherium skeleton, so as to make a large inclusive Edentata group. The details of arrangement for this group have not yet been finally settled; but moving it over against the wall has added considerably to the space in the centre of the hall, which was too crowded to be effective. To the four great murals in this hall by Charles R. Knight, representing respectively the Pleistocene life of western Europe, of central United States, of northern Asia and of Argentina, has now been added a fifth, representing the Pleis- tocene life of northeastern North America with its character- istic Giant Beaver, Deer, Moose and Tapir, whose remains are found along with those of the mastodon in the peatbogs and later cave deposits of the north Atlantic states. A sixth mural painting by Mr. Knight, above the west archway of the hall, represents the men of the Polished Stone Age, the prehistoric hunters of hardy Northern type whose remains are chiefly known from Northern Europe. These were the forerunners of the higher modern types of man among whom civilization arose. Professor Osborn has completed the manuscript of the Titanothere monograph and transmitted it to the United States Rese Geological Survey for publication. This great and memoir is an exhaustive research upon one of Publication the most important of the extinct races of ani- mals that formerly inhabited North America, and treats fully of their geologic history, their evolution, habits, origin and ex- tinction, and other features of interest. Progress has con- tinued on the monograph of the Sauropoda, or gigantic amphibious dinosaurs, by Professor Osborn with assistance Researches on Fossils 07 of Dr. Mook, and a memoir upon the skeleton of Camarasaurus in the Cope collection has been completed. Dr. Matthew has published two preliminary articles concerning the newly dis- covered Antillean faunas, and has nearly completed the memoir describing the remarkable Cuban fossils discovered by Professor La Torre and Mr. Barnum Brown. The memoir upon the Paleocene faunas by Dr. Matthew and Mr. Granger, describing the quadrupeds which lived at the beginning of the Age of Mammals, has made considerable progress during the year, both as to text and illustrations, but is still far from com- plete. Dr. Gregory has in press two important memoirs, one describing the Eocene lemuroid primates, the group of ani- mals from which the later monkeys, apes and man evolved, the other, a comparative study of the lachrymal bone in the Mammalia. A study of the collections of Pliocene mammals obtained in 1918 from the Snake Creek beds in western Ne- braska was made by Dr. Matthew, but publication of the results is deferred until illustrations can be made. Dr. Mook has devoted a part of the year to a compara- tive research upon the existing and extinct Crocodilia, and has completed certain preliminary studies in this subject. Considerable time was also given by the Curator and Dr. Gregory to the preparation of various popular or semi- popular articles, notices, etc., and by all members of the staff to aid scientific visitors in the examination and comparison of Museum types and other specimens. Two articles by Messrs. Gidley and Miller of the United States National Museum staff, descriptive of American Museum specimens, have been pub- lished in the Bulletin. ~ 98 Report of the President EXISTING AND EXTINCT RACES OF MEN* Ciark WISSLER, Curator A plan has been developed for a new exhibition hall to take the place of that formerly devoted to the general prehistoric archeology of the United States. Antiquity This new exhibit is to present the main outline of Man A a , of the history of culture from its earliest forms in palzolithic time to the era of the historical nations. One- half of the hall will be given to the chronological phases of Old. World culture, the remaining half to a similar treat- ment for New World cultures. To complete the series, the adjoining tower room will be occupied by exhibits relating to the classification of the races of mankind and man’s evolution. Assistant Curator Nelson prepared the detailed plan for the Old World and has advanced the installation so far that the hall has been reopened to visitors. The sections for the successive periods of palzolithic culture are in place, as also are those for the neolithic period. The preparation of labels and the specific refinement of the individual exhibits will be the work of the coming year. A few special synoptic exhibits accompany the chronological sections, showing the evolution of the ax, knife, and similar fundamental tools. The com- pletion of this half of the hall will give our visitors unrivaled facilities for the study of Old World chronology, now fully recognized as the foundation to history and the comprehen- sion of civilization. Most of the specimens used are from the R. L. Stuart collection, the G. L. Feuardent collection (1878) and the Andrew Ellicott Douglass collection (1901). There are, however, some unfortunate gaps in the sequential exhibits which we hope to fill with additional collections from Europe. * Under the Department of Anthropology (see also pages 216 to 219). Exhibitions for the Public 99 The miscellaneous exhibition work of the year comprised several important additions and revisions. ~The Eskimo collec- tions are now installed in the corridor to the Exhibition left of the entrance to the Lecture Hall. The Series Ble : : space is inadequate, but it has been possible to show the essential characteristics of Eskimo culture for the main geographical groups. Special emphasis has been given to the archzological collections representing the prehistoric development of the Eskimo. The greater part of these speci- mens are from the Stefansson-Anderson and the Crocker Land Expeditions. The section for the Indians of Eastern United States has been condensed and enriched by the addition of related archeological material, particularly in the alcoves for the Iroquois and the Indians of the Southeastern States. We plan further to intensify the exhibits of this hall by adding such archeological specimens as clearly belong to the immediate prehistoric periods of the respective localities. Following out the same idea in the hall for the Indians of the Plains, archzological material has been added to the Hidatsa-Mandan sections and one case installed to show the general archeology of the area. Assistant Curator Spinden collected cultivated plants among the Hidatsa-Mandan Indians of North Dakota, including a series of squashes which have been skilfully reproduced in wax and placed on view as part of a special food exhibit in the section for these Indians. Finally, mention may be made of a special installation of new specimens from the prehistoric ruin of Aztec now being excavated as a part of the Archer M. Huntington Survey of the Southwest. Our collections have been greatly enriched by the generosity of many donors, a list of whom will be found under a separate head. A fine Chinese painting was presented by Mr. Ogden Mills. Mr. George Langford of Joliet, Illinois, presented a large archeological collection gathered by him in the course of investigations of certain village sites near his home, an account of which has been published in the American Anthropologist. Our Accessions 100 Report of the President archeological collections were further enriched by a large series of stone implements from Michigan, presented by Mr. H. G. Otis. Miss Mary Appleton gave a collection of baskets and pottery from the Indians of North America. Mr. A. S. Walcott gave a series of bronze figures from Sumatra, and Dr. Elsie Clews Parsons, a collection of rare ceremonial objects from the Zuni Indians. A number of purchases were made from the income of the Jesup Fund, among which may be noted an extensive archeological collection from the Mimbres Valley, New Mexico. Yet the most notable of these acquisitions is a series of twelve stone sculptures from the ancient Mayan ruins of Kabah and Uxmal, Yucatan. They were purchased from Miss Cornelia Cruger, Barrytown-on-Hudson, whose father received them from the celebrated explorer, John L. Stephens, who took them from the ruins about 1840. Aside from their unique historical interest, these specimens are excellent types of Maya séulpture, originals of which are rarely found in museums. The only explorations undertaken by the Department were among the Havasupai Indians of Arizona and the continuation of work upon the group of prehistoric ruins near the town of Aztec, New Mexico. Early in the year Mr. Leslie Spier gave up his position as Assistant in Anthropology to accept a Traveling Fellowship from Columbia University. By special arrangement he was permitted to visit the Havasupai Indians in the interests of this Museum. Several months were spent among these Indians in making a collection and gathering data on their fast vanishing culture. As this tribe had not been seriously studied by former in- vestigators, the results of this research will form a welcome addition to our knowledge of the subject. Field Work Mr. Earl H. Morris spent the entire year at the largest of the ruins in the Aztec group. The Curator spent four weeks at the site, visiting many important ruins dhe ares in the vicinity and developing plans for the final excavation and repair of the ruins under investigation. Since his visit Mr. Morris has excavated a Excavation of Aztec Ruins IOI large part of the western half of the main ruin. Some six- teen rooms were found with their ceilings intact, thus giving us full opportunity to study the architecture in all its de- tails. Though the walls of the ruin are of dressed sand- stone, the ceilings are of wood supported by large beams of cedar and spruce. The presence of these logs has enabled us to introduce a novel method of estimating the age of the ruin. Professor A. E. Douglass, who has developed ingenious methods by which the annual rings of trees can be dated, even though the logs are of unknown age, was invited to examine cuttings from the ruins in this group and from Pueblo Bonito in the famous Chaco Cafion group, explored for this Museum by the Hyde Expedition. The investigation is now proceed- ing with satisfactory results, a report of which will be published later. For the most part the members of our scientific staff gave their time to the data obtained on former field expeditions. rs Problems of racial distinction and origins were in the developed by Assistant Curator Sullivan and Dr. Museum Bruno Oetteking. Mr. Sullivan, with the co- operation of the Department of Physiology, made a series of microphotographs of racial hair cuttings for study and exhi- bition. The main investigation, however, concerned itself with a series of measurements upon full and mixed-blood Indians made some years ago under the direction of Professor Franz Boas. These data have been thoroughly compiled and correlated to show the results of race mixture. Among some of the significant conclusions are the constancy of degrees of correlation between bodily proportions even in mixed-bloods and the apparent inheritance of specific correlations between face width and breadth of head. Dr. Oetteking completed the measurement and description of the skulls for north- western America and eastern Siberia, for a report upon the physical anthropology of the Jesup North Pacific Expedition. Our facilities for promoting research in human biology have been greatly improved during the year. A room adjoining the physiological laboratory has been equipped as an an- 102 Report of the President thropometric laboratory and office for Assistant Curator Sul- livan. By special arrangement the equipment of the physi- ological laboratory is now available for the work of this Department. The Galton Society has organized a special laboratory for the study of racial characters, which, for the present, is housed in this department, the Curator being the Chairman of its governing committee and Assistant Curator Sullivan, its Director. Assistant Curator Spinden discovered a correlation between . the calendars of the Aztec and Maya that promises to give us an unbroken historical record for the New World from the beginning of the Christian era. Mr. Leslie Spier has com- pleted an exhaustive study of the sun dance of the Plains Indians revealing some interesting culture movements among these tribes. Dr. Elsie Clews Parsons has nearing completion a detailed analysis of the social organization of the Rio Grande Pueblo Indians. Our growing series of popular publications has been strengthened by the issue of a handbook on the “Peoples of the Philippines” by Professor A. L. Kroeber, Pducotionsl Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, who filled a temporary appointment to the staff of the Department in 1918. A special guide for visitors and students of aboriginal art was prepared by the Curator under the title “Indian Beadwork.” The following lectures were given during the year :— ieee Spinden: Central American Travels (Brooklyn Institute) Decoration and Symbolism of the Pueblo Indians (Institute of Arts and Sciences, Columbia University ) The Creation of a National Art (Institute of Arts and Sciences, Columbia University) Museums and Industrial Art (American Association of Museums) RYE Lowie: Primitive Ideas of Property (Philadelphia An- thropological Society) ‘SO]}XO LT Ulspoy 10} sustsaq JO adinoG ay} se suswideds wnasnyy Surmoys SoUN}SOD PUL SII}XIT, Ul JTW [eLysnpuy JO uoIpGIYyXyY JeIsads ay} yO uoTDaC “Salad 1ovwd W Nwado NI SNOISG INYION V ADOTOCONHINVY AO INAWINVdaAd Education in Art and Design 103 A number of special loans were made to schools and educa- tional institutions. In several instances we contributed advice and material for the staging of pageants representing the prehistory of Manhattan. Assistant Curator Spinden repre- sented the department in several educational conferences on the teaching of decorative art conducted by the State Depart- ment of Education, and at the invitation of the State Commis- sioner of Education John H. Finley, prepared a series of photographic charts, with notes, for circulation among the schools of the State. The leader of the several scout organizations centering in this city invited the cooperation of this department in the training of scout masters for instruction in woodcraft and Indian lore. Mr. B. T. B. Hyde, representing the Museum, and Dr. Elbert K. Fretwell, representing the scout organiza- tions, have held a number of informal conferences, which have resulted in bringing the scientific resources of the depart- ment to the aid of the local masters. Mir. Hyde has directed the study of €useum material by these groups and is develop- ing some special collections for their use. It is hoped that these efforts will result in a more effective use of the Museum by the Scouts of America. The following publications appeared during the year: A. L.

Tower, Curator The department has installed an exhibit entitled “From Wing to Paddle.” The specimens illustrate some of the probable steps or stages in the transformation of a wing which is used solely for flight, and one—strange as it may seem—which is used only for swim- ming. From this viewpoint birds could be divided into four classes: those that fly high, soar and remain on the wing for extended periods, as the vulture and the hawk; those that fly rapidly and soar but little, as the swallow; those that fly heavily and do not soar, as the hen and turkey; those that do not fly but use their wings to assist in rapid running, as the ostrich, or for paddles in swimming, as the penguin. The wings of birds are modified according to the shape, area and structure of the supporting bones, while the arrangement and size of the feathers play an important part in the function of the wing. It is interesting to note that in the strong fliers the muscles that lower the wing are more powerful than those that raise it, while in the wing used as a paddle the opposite is true. Another exhibit recently installed is a series demonstrating the adaptation of limbs for swimming. A limb adapted to fly- ing must be light and at the same time strong enough to support the large surface of membrane or feathers needed for flight. The bones of the wing of a bird are hollow, slender and long; on the other hand, a limb adapted to swimming must be strong and furnish the support for a comparatively narrow paddle. The foregoing characteristics are well illustrated in the exhibit. A series of window transparencies illustrate the circulation of the blood. The structure of the ventricles, auricles and valves are shown by photographs taken from the normal heart. The pulmonary and systemic circulation of the blood is de- scribed by schematic drawings.

The exhibit that was prepared along these lines in 1918 has been materially improved and expanded and has continued to be a center of inspiration for work along this general line throughout the country. The work has been given large publicity during the year through the preparation of special articles which have appeared in the monthly bulletin of the Life Extension Institute and in various popular magazines and newspaper Sunday supple- ments, and a large number of classes and groups of students and others have visited the exhibit for informal talks in front of the cases. At the request of Dr. Gustave Straubenmuller, Associate Superintendent of Schools, the Department has made an ex- tensive study of the possibility of cooperating Circulating with the authorities of the City in their campaign Collection of : oe : Food Hygiene #8inst malnutrition among school children. A detailed plan has been prepared for a traveling exhibit to be composed of 15 models of foods which can be used in various combinations to teach the value of different foods in the diet and the composition of an ideal daily dietary, these models being supplemented by blocks illustrating the detailed composition of certain food stuffs and by a series of diagrams and charts. The exhibit in its compactness and completeness will con- stitute a novel contribution to educational methods in dietary * Under the Department of Public Health (see also page 219). 106 Report of the President hygiene. Actual exhibits are now under preparation by the Department of Public Education and will be completed by the spring of 1920. The Museum of Living Bacteria has continued its inyalu- able work, and it is interesting to notice that a collection of a similar kind has just been inaugurated in Eng- Museum of land under the auspices of the Lister Institute. png It is to be hoped, however, that the preeminence in the field of systematic bacteriology which our collection has so long held may still be maintained in the future. The total strains now under cultivation are 575, the col- lection having been gone over and a number of duplicate types eliminated. During the year ending December 1, 1919, 4,137 cultures were sent without charge to laboratories of health departments and universities, making a total of 26,192 cultures distributed since the opening of the laboratory in 1911. All together, 283 institutions have benefited by our service during the year ending December 1, 1919. The monograph on the colon-typhoid group of bacteria, prepared by the Curator, Dr. Kligler and Mr. Rothberg, ap- peared during the autumn of 1919, and the revi- sion of the classification of the Staphylococci, with a final report of the Committee on Classification of the Society of American Bacteriologists, of which the Curator is chairman, will go to press early in 1920. Publications On the completion of his military service Mr. William Rothberg returned to the Museum, and Miss E. I. Parsons resigned her position in June. Mr. Rothberg Changes resigned in the autumn after completing eight sated years of devoted service, and his place has been taken by Miss Ada Bancroft, Wellesley, 1912.

Tower, Curator No one activity of the Library stands out in contrast to another. The opening of foreign transportation has been followed by an influx of periodicals and other literature dating from 1914. The detail of perfecting the exchange files is one which demands much care, and it will be only after some years that the many lacune can be filled. In a recent exhibition of the Long Expedition cae the Museum prepared, there was shown an original edition of Peale’s Report on the Mammals and Birds of the Wilkes Exploring Expedition, 1848. It appears that this manuscript not only possesses the body of the report intact but contains the complete Introduction, which was suppressed in the published report and which was supposed to have been lost. In this copy there was also found an autograph letter from Peale to Gambel which throws light on the exact date of publication of the original volume, a date which has been long in doubt. The Library thus possesses an unique in this document done in the handwriting of Titian R. Peale. The Library added to its collections some 2,646 volumes, among which are many worthy of special notice. In addition to the accession of many volumes of foreign periodicals whose receipt has been negligible during the war, the year has seen the introduction of two new series for which there had been a frequent demand— The American Bee Journal, and Ymer the well known Swedish anthropological serial. While gifts to the collections have been many and diversi- fied, the following items were purchased from the funds given to the Library by the late Anson W. Hard: Accessions * Under the Department of Books and Publications, 108 Report of the President Moore, Frederic, ““The Lepidoptera of Ceylon,” 3 quarto volumes, London, 1880-1887.

Peale had already been acquired, the following new items have been donated: Ord, George, “Sketch of the Life of Alexander Wilson,” Philadelphia, 1828, and a manuscript in the handwriting of Titian R. Peale, en- titled “Catalogue of Specimens of Mammalia and Birds Col- lected by the South Seas Surveying and Exploring Expedition during the Years 1838, 1839, 1840, 1841 & 1842.” Mr. Ogden Mills has again shown himself a sincere friend and interested patron in presenting: Raleigh, Walter, “The History of the World,” 2 volumes, London, 1736.

The Annual Report gives each year a short review of the administrative and educational activities of the institution. It is particularly pertinent to all who are interested in the welfare and progress of the Museum as well as to those who for practical purposes are concerned with museum organiza- tion. The Bulletin is the organ whereby the scientific staff publish the results of the field and laboratory work for the year. It consists of twenty to twenty-five articles issued more or less regularly throughout the year and at the conclusion bound into a volume. During 1919 Volume XLI was published, which contains three articles on Mammalogy, one on Ichthyology, nine on Invertebrate Zoology, three on Vertebrate Palzontology, two on Herpetology, one on Ornithology and one on In- vertebrate Palzontology. Also two volumes relating to the Belgian Congo were published: Volume XXXIX, containing a monograph by Bequaert on “A Revision of the Vespide of the Belgian Congo Based on the Collection of The American Museum Congo Expedition, with a List of Ethiopian Diplopterous Wasps,” and a monograph by Schmidt on “Con- tributions to the Herpetology of the Belgian Congo Based on the Collection of The American Museum Congo Expedition, 1Q09-1915”; and volume XL which is devoted entirely to Pilsbry’s paper on “A Review of the Land Mollusks of the Belgian Congo Based on the Collection of The American Museum Congo Expedition, 1909-1915.’ The collection of papers on the Belgian Congo has steadily increased. A List of Reports on the Results of The American Museum Congo Expedition published this year contains a short description of fifteen such papers. These reports, two volumes, bound in red morocco, with illuminated frontispiece, were presented to the King of Belgium on his recent visit to the institution. Publications Publications Toren The total pages for the year are 1601, with 523 text figures, 92 plates and 23 maps. The Anthropological Papers, as their name implies, deal entirely with the work of the Department of Anthropology. These papers are now in their twenty-ninth volume. The nine parts which appeared during 1919 include articles on various phases of the history of the Crow, Aztec, White Mountain Apache, Eskimo and Philippine tribes, and make a total of 713 pages, 125 text figures and 3 maps. Natural History, which is the name adopted for The Ameri- can Museum Journal beginning with 1919, has exceeded all previous volumes in the number and variety of articles and excellence of illustrations. This periodical has taken a prominent position in popularity and importance among semi- scientific publications. The Handbook on the “Peoples of the Philippines,’ by Dr. A. L. Kroeber, has just appeared. It gives a most interesting account of the ethnology and culture of the people of these islands. Three Guide Leaflets, one by Mr. Whitlock on “The Collection of Minerals,’ one by Dr. Wissler on “Indian Bead- work,” one a reprint of the “Peruvian Art,” and a reprint of the General Guide have also been published. GENERAL SUMMARY In looking forward to the coming fifty years and in sur- veying the general condition of education in this country, it becomes doubly clear that now is the time for united effort on the part of all the citizens of this country to overcome the crisis brought about by the high cost of living. From the universities at the top to the primary schools at the bottom, the prestige and influence of the teaching profession are rap- idly declining, because the teaching class is not being drawn from the most intelligent members of the community. Just at the moment when the United States needs the greatest intelligence and inspiration in its teachers to meet new social and economic problems, which can be solved only through in- telligence, we find the ranks of the teaching profession being 112 Report of the President deserted all over the United States and the vacancies often filled by men and women ill-fitted by nature and training for the most important function of our Government. Education as “the most important subject which we as a people can be engaged in” was the opening thought of Abraham Lincoln’s first public speech. In The American Museum of Natural History this crisis must be met first by the erection of a building adequate to give our exhibitions their full educational value, second, through the encouragement and training of a rising generation of teachers and pupils in all the branches which fall within our special province. To accomplish this result throughout the country and within the Museum, it is absolutely essential to double the appropriations hitherto made for education. We have doubled expenditures in every other activity of life; we must prepare to double expenditures for education. Respectfully submitted, HENRY FAIRFIELD OSBORN, President. Report of the Treasurer 113 FINANCES, MAINTENANCE, ENDOWMENT There have been no important changes in the methods of conducting or recording the finances of the Museum during 1919. The present system, devised by the Bursar, Mr. Frederick H. Smyth, is working satisfactorily and makes it possible to present a financial report which is easily com- prehended. All of the Treasurer’s books are kept at the Museum, under the immediate direction of Mr. Smyth. The total expenditures for the year amount to $647,382.95. For the most part these disbursements are made in small sums and the mere recording of them involves a large amount of clerical work. ' For the sake of clearness it has been found advisable to treat the financial transactions of the Museum in five major accounts, namely, Endowment and Investment Account City Maintenance Account General Account Morris K. Jesup Fund Account Special Funds Account and four minor accounts, namely, Crocker Land Expedition Fund Account Corporate Stock Account Incidental Account Museum Building Fund Account. The details of the receipts and disbursements of each account will be found under the respective headings in the Treasurer’s Report, pages 119 to 137. 114 Maintenance of Museum The transactions pertaining to the capital of the Permanent Endowment, whether genera! or special, are recorded in this account. The principal additions to the capital End of the General Endowment during the year were ndowment F and Invest- the bequest of Dr. James Douglas, amounting ment Account to $100,000, and membership fees, amounting to $9,500. A special Endowment for the Depart- ment of Anthropology, amounting to $10,000, was received from the estate of Margaret L. Baugh as payment in full of her bequest. With this new capital, the Finance Committee has purchased Liberty Bonds to the amount of $114,350. The total Endowment on December 31, 1919, consisted of securi- ties of $8,111,325 and uninvested cash of $6,661.07. The City’s appropriation and the disbursements therefrom are recorded in the City Maintenance Account. These are the operating expenses for the care and upkeep City of the building and the maintenance of the A cacaetonatbas exhibits for the public, as distinguished from expenses of research, exploration and scientific administration. It does not show the entire maintenance and operating expenses, because the City’s appropriation was in- adequate. In 1919, the City provided $200,000 for mainten- ance. ‘The actual operating expenses, however, amounted to $300,886.79. The deficiency of $100,886.79 the Trustees met by personal contributions or from general unrestricted funds, which were disbursed through the General Account. The receipts of the General Account are the only unre- stricted funds which the Trustees may apply to general pur- poses. It is from these funds that the deficiency Trustees’ in running expenses has been met. The princi- General : : Account pal items of income for the year are as fol- lows: Income from the General Endowment ............ $56,948.82 Membership Fees (Sustaining, Annual and Asso- (LEC) aD SRC cl ERS OU lA Me mR IRM Sr atin 37,665.00 SalesvandwEexchangesiinca esas: coe eens 8,256.94 Personal Contributions of Trustees................. 29,350.00 Report of the Treasurer 115 The present invested value of the splendid bequests of Mr. and Mrs. Jesup is $6,672,323.07. The income on this fund amounted to $275,571.67, which was increased Morris K. by sale of publications and exchanges to $280,- pee cond 934.04. Under the terms of the bequest this revenue can be applied to the scientific adminis- tration, i. e., to exploration, the enrichment of the collections, researches and the publication of the results of these investi- gations. The details of the disbursements of this fund as given on page 127 show that every scientific department has shared in this fund and that this means the general de- velopment of the entire Museum. It frequently happens that a patron or group of patrons of the institution desire to encourage and support some particu- lar research or exploration and wish their con- Special tribution applied solely to such purpose. In such Funds : ! ae instance these moneys are not merged with other funds of the Museum, but are handled as inde- pendent funds in the Special Funds Account. Disbursements are made from such funds only for the purpose specified by the donor. These special funds are very important in foster- ing scientific research because as a rule the particular work promoted could not otherwise be taken up. The net receipts available in this account during 1919 amounted to $26,710.80. The minor accounts (pages 134 to 137) are the Crocker Land Expedition Fund Account, the Corporate Stock Ac- count, the Incidental Account and the Museum per Building Fund Account. The sums involved in ccounts ‘ : these transactions are relatively small. A full account of the receipts and disbursements of the Pension Fund, of which the Treasurer of the Museum is Pension ex-officio Treasurer, is published as a part of Fund the Report of the Pension Board, and will be Account found in the Appendix to this Report.

P. DAVISON, Treasurer E. & ©:-E. New Yorx, December 31, 1919 Privileges of Members 139 MEMBERSHIP The growth of our membership roll reflects the confidence that the public at large has in the quality of the service rendered by the institution to the world. In spite of the abnormal financial conditions of the year, a greater number of new Members has been enrolled than in any preceding year. In all, 904 new names appear on our records and the total membership now exceeds 5,000. This means that there-are more than 5,000 friends who are actively interested in the development of the Museum and the extension of its educa- tional work, and the influence of these Members in interesting others is one of the Museum’s greatest assets. Members receive current copies of the magazine Natural History, tickets to the various courses of lectures and the | privileges of the Members’ Room. The name of The American Museum Journal has been changed to Natural History, partly to avoid confusion with other publications known as “Museum Journals” and partly because the magazine for two years had not been restricted to a consideration of the American Museum’s work and interests, but aimed to be a medium of expression between authoritative science in America and the people, a place for publication of readable articles on the results of the scientific research and thought of the nation for people who are not technically trained. Owing to conditions in the printing trade and the difficulties of securing suitable material, there has been an extraordinary delay in the regular issuing of the magazine during the latter part of the year. To relieve the congestion, it was decided to issue one large number of the magazine which would be the equivalent of the October, November and December numbers and would close the 1919 volume. Unfortunately, however, delays prevented the issuing of this number before the close of the year. Owing mainly to the increased cost of produc- 140 Report of the Secretary tion and the intention to maintain the same character of the magazine, it has been decided to publish it as a bimonthly, beginning in 1920.

D. 240 To the President and Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History and to the Subscribers to the Fund: In accordance with the Rules and Regulations, I have the honor to transmit to you herewith the Seventh Annual Report of the activities of the Pension Board and of its financial oper- ations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1919. Freuix M. Warsura, Chairman. February 2, 1920. 241 242 Pension Fund Report The close of 1919 found the membership of the Fund com- prised of 233 contributors and 3 retired employees. It is with regret that we are obliged to note the loss by death of two contributors and one retired member, further mention of whom will be found in another part of this report. Facilities for the purchase of bonds by serial payments (through an arrangement similar to that offered in previous Government loans) were again extended to employees of the Museum in the Victory Loan through the generosity of one of our good friends. One hundred seventy-six employees took advantage of the opportunity, and the subscriptions, as in the two previous loans, passed the $20,000 mark, $20,200 being subscribed to the fifth loan. Too much stress cannot be laid on the desirability of insti- tuting a system of periodical physical inspection for our em- ployees. It has been suggested that such a system be made obligatory, and that the employee be asked to contribute one- half of the expense of his examinations, which would probably number two a year and would be given at a nominal rate. It is realized that the introduction of such a plan might per- haps call forth some objection on the part of a few employees. Such opposition, however, would probably arise only in the first hasty consideration of the plan, and would disappear after a little clear thought had been given the matter. It is to-day a generally accepted fact that the interests of em- ployer and employee are mutual and closely interrelated. Their obligations toward each other do not begin and end in the mere performance of and remuneration for a certain amount of work. The Museum authorities have found it pos- sible, on a number of occasions in the past, to be of assistance in various ways to employees in need of medical or surgical attention. Such assistance has been as gratefully accepted as it was freely offered. Now the Corporation proposes to ex- tend to all its employees its cooperation in detecting signs of threatened or incipient illness, and in promptly warding off or correcting the trouble. Such wise precaution will accom- plish for the individual employee the elimination of preventa- ble sickness, and a consequent extension of life, while for the Museum it will mean a generally higher standard of efficiency due to the higher physical standard among the employees. It is therefore the hope of the Pension Board that the proposi- Pension Fund Report 243 tion of periodical physical examinations, after its adoption by the Board of Trustees, will be met with favor, and even with enthusiasm, by the employees. At the time of the adoption of our Rules and Regulations, Mr. 8. Herbert Wolfe, the actuary who passed upon the plan, recommended that from time to time examinations be made of the condition of the Fund, and that a comprehensive survey be made at least every five years. The unusual conditions prevailing in 1918 prevented such an examination. In No- vember last, however, Mr. Wolfe made an exhaustive examina- tion, and we have his assurance that the accumulations of the Fund have reached the figure which it was assumed they would equal. But Mr. Wolfe makes suggestions looking for- ward to the improvement of the condition of the Fund, and to the further assurance of its continuity. The following ex- cerpt from his report is worthy of earnest consideration : ‘Tf the future experience follows that of the past, I am of the opinion that the scale of contributions may remain as it is, and the benefits will be paid as required. There are cer- tain conditions, however, which must be noted in order that the entire matter may be intelligently considered. ‘‘The number of contributing members is small, and it is axiomatic that the smaller the group the greater will be the effect of fluctuations from the normal. “It would not be the part of wisdom to shut our eyes to the fact that throughout the world at this time a lack of balance is manifest in the financial, the social and the economic bases of our existence. What effect will these disturbances have upon the Fund? Will they serve to change the relationship exist- ing between the Museum and its employees? Will they result in unrest which in turn will be evidenced by less persistent employmient and by a desire to discontinue active work as soon as the retirement age has been reached? Will the chang- ing economic conditions result in a modification of the wage scale to an extent which will disarrange the calculations upon which the Fund was started ? ‘““No one is competent at this time to answer the foregoing questions, and I deem it desirable, therefore, to make a sug- gestion intended to shield the Fund from the effect of any adverse conditions which may be developed in the future. In 244 Pension Fund Report view of the excellent condition of the Fund, it would seem that this time is the most appropriate for the inauguration of this additional safeguard. I would therefore suggest the formation of a Trustees’ Emergeney Fund, which will not be- come an integral part of the Pension Fund, but which will be held as a reserve to be called upon if needed in the future and if not needed can revert to the original subscribers or become part of some other designated fund of your institu- tion. I would suggest that this fund be placed at $150,000, and that it and its accumulations be set aside for the pur- poses indicated above.”’ Accepting this recommendation, it is the Committee’s in- tention to endeavor to raise by personal solicitation the sum named. Probably in every pension system it is found advisable to introduce certain changes or emendations after the plan has been in operation for a period long enough to indicate the conditions peculiar to the corporation or institution concerned. It seems wise that in our plan some provision be made where- by persons of over 45 years of age entering the employ of the Museum be permitted to become subscribers to the Fund, provided they be in good health. Again, plans which, when formulated, seem clear in pur- pose and application, do not always prove satisfactory in their actual operation. It is therefore the intention of the Pension Board to clarify, at an early date, some of the rules pertaining to the administration of the Fund, as well as to recommend certain changes in the rules relating to retire- ments. Apropos of this latter purpose, we quote Mr. Wolfe, who had unusual opportunity to study the working of the pension systems of the United States Government and of for- eign countries during the war, and was in a position to ob- serve the weak points of various systems, the existence of which had not been anticipated: “x * * it was observed that the cause for the con- stantly increasing amounts paid for our Army and Navy pensions was traceable not to pensions allotted to those who were disabled as the result of their military activities, but to those who received allowances based upon the mere fact that they were in service for a certain period. The latter group Pension Fund Report 245 may be said to correspond to those of your employees who would be entitled to retire after 30 years of service, irrespec- tive of their then age. An employee entering your service at the age of 21 would become entitled to retire at the age of 51, and it is manifest that if employees should avail them- selves of this privilege to any considerable extent the burden might prove embarrassing.’’ To the friends mentioned below we feel especially grateful for kindnesses conferred : To Mr. S. Herbert Wolfe for his painstaking and complete survey of our Pension Fund. To Mr. Horace F. Hutchinson and Mr. Richard B. Kelly for their generosity in placing at our disposal their endowed beds in the Presbyterian Hospital for the treatment of our sick. To Mr. Lewis L. Delafield for advisory services freely ren- dered. Bervased Sulwcribers We deeply regret to have to report the deaths of the fol- lowing members during the year 1919: JEFFERSON L. JEFFORDS Jefferson L. Jeffords was born on August 7, 1859, in James- town, New York. In 1908 he came to the Museum. For a number of years he worked as a machinist, being later as- signed to the custodians’ force. There he served to the time of his death, displaying always an unusually happy disposi- tion, never failing courtesy and genial presence. His sudden death on October 15, 1919, came as a distinct shock to all his acquaintances. The institution has lost in him one who served with efficiency and a deep sense of personal interest. JOHN F. JORDAN John F. Jordan was born in London on April 8, 1847. In 1901 he entered the service of the Museum in the capacity of painter. Always cheerful, his cordiality won for him a warm welcome in the gatherings of his associates. The infirmities of age compelled him to retire in 1917. He died suddenly on February 27, 1919. JoHN T. KYLE John T. Kyle was born May 4, 1874, in Jersey City. In early manhood he decided to learn carpentry, and served a 247 248 Pension Fund Report regular apprenticeship, upon the completion of which he be- came a ship-joiner. With this experience he joined the con- struction force of the Museum as a cabinet-maker, and in this position served efficiently for eight years. A man of exem- plary character and habits, he was of sterling integrity, steadfast in friendship and always welcome among groups of his associates. Patient during a long-continued illness, he was released from his suffering on September 23, 1919.
