Recently Appointed Honorary Curator. FIFTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT To the Trustees of The American Museum of Natural History and to the City of New York PROGRESS OF THE FIFTY-SECOND YEAR BY PRESIDENT HENRY FAIRFIELD OSBORN “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 the State of New York and the Members of the Senate and Assembly must prepare to meet the crisis which has suddenly over- whelmed the educational system of the State. At the moment a demo- cratic measure of taxation, one that has a precedent in many other states, seems advisable. President John H. Finley, at the head of the entire educational 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.” * The above sentences from my Fifty-first Annual Report have aroused widespread discussion. In general the democratiza- tion of taxation for purposes of education is not popular. The people must be convinced through a gradual appeal to their patriotism and to their reason that every citizen as well as every alien should make some direct contribution towards the great system of public education and public welfare which has been built up in the City of New York. The spirit of mutual sacrifice involved in such a contribution is an important ele- ment in the training for citizenship. By this means taxation becomes a blessing fairly borne by all, instead of a burden resting heavily on the shoulders of a few. I am convinced that our present system of taxation in the City of New York, where only one person in ten pays a visible and direct tax, is thoroughly undemocratic. It means taxation of the few with- out representation or a real voice in the expenditure of tax 1¥From the Fifty-first Annual Report of The American Museum of Natural History. 17 18 Report of the President funds. It means representation of the many without taxation, but with a dominant voice in expenditure. At a recent conference with ex-Governor Alfred E. Smith he declared himself in favor of a more even distribution of taxation, provided this could be accomplished without the cre- ation of a new tax commission, which would be expensive and cumbersome. Governor Nathan L. Miller has declared himself for the simplification of our mode of collecting taxes, and he should unite with this a provision for the even distribution of taxes among all those who enjoy the blessings of taxation, whether property holders or not. : This discussion would seem to be out of place in a report from a museum of natural history, but the museum has to take its part in a nation-wide if not a world-wide movement to re- store the primacy of our educational institutions lost through failure to give them adequate financial support. NINE NEW BUILDING SECTIONS NEEDED By far the most important financial need in the immediate future of this Museum is money for building. It is fifteen years since the building was enlarged. It is nine years since two new buildings were unanimously approved by the govern- . ment of the City of New York and an initial appropriation made and then construction suspended owing to the war. As pointed out clearly in the Fifty-first Annual Report, the pres- ent building, consisting of eight sections, is about half as large as we need; more Serious than this is the untruthful arrange- ment of our collections and the false natural history which we are teaching because of the necessity of crowding together exhibitions, collections and subjects which do not belong to- gether and which, in fact, should be very clearly separated. During the past year the SCHOOL SERVICE BUILDING has been projected to occupy the SOUTHWEST COURT and to meet the needs of the rapidly increasing number of classes of school children who are coming to the Museum, not only from Greater New York but from surrounding cities.* 1This statement is borne out by the actual percentages of increase, which show great advance in the year 1920 over the year 1919.

Partly to prepare for this, Curator C.-E. A. Winslow has been sent abroad to study what is being done in foreign cities along these lines, especially in the field of public health. The Museum is honored by his selection as General Medical Director of the League of Red Cross Societies at Geneva. In alcoves surrounding the main hall of the SCHOOL SER- VICE BUILDING will be placed a complete exhibit of the natural history of man, from which may be drawn standard material for distribution to the schools, and in these alcoves space will be provided for classes of school children. This adds one section to the Museum building program, which now stands, in order of importance, as follows: Section Space Estimated number cu. ft. cost 9.

As shown in the Fifty-first Annual Report, the SOUTHEAST WING (ASIATIC HALL) and the SOUTH- EAST COURT (OCEANIC HALL) are the buildings most urgently needed to accommodate and exhibit the invaluable collections which we have been receiving during the past six- teen years. Next in order of urgency by city appropriation is the SOUTHWEST COURT (SCHOOL SERViGa BUILDING). The plans for the EAST CENTRAL WING (ROOSEVELT AFRICAN HALL) and for the EAST CENTRAL PAVILION (ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL HALL) have been completed and presented to the State Roosevelt Memorial Commission, of which President Osborn is Chairman. Plans for the CENTRAL PAVILION (AS- TRONOMIC HALL) will be presented to the Carnegie Cor- poration as affording a great opportunity to make an educa- tional exhibit of the work of the Mt. Wilson and other great American observatories. The completed plans for the WEST CENTRAL PAVILION (AZTEC HALL) were approved by the Trustees in May, 1910. This Hall will house all the collections, presented by the Duc de Loubat and others, of the ancient monuments of Mexico and Central America. It has been decided to devote the WEST CENTRAL WING (SOUTH AMERICAN HALL) also to anthropology in or- der to complete the geographic arrangement of the collections. The accompanying diagram, lettered to correspond with above description, shows clearly the relation of these nine new build- ing sections to the future design of the Museum. It is our duty to bring before the people, before the govern- ments of the City and State of New York, and before our Trustees and Members the extreme urgency of more build- ing space. It is with the Museum, as with the schools and colleges which the Museum serves, that every year’s delay means a serious spiritual, moral and intellectual loss to this community. The Museum has become an intimate part of the educational system of not only the city but of the entire coun- try. It is estimated that the account and plan of the Third ‘YIOX MIN FO 9}k}S IY} FO UOISSIWIWIOD [PIJOWIaP, JoAISOOY VY} 910J9q MOU suL]{g SPINY ‘UOISSUIAIT pUue ISplIqMOIT, adCVOVA LSVA AO NOLLOUS TVALINGO TIVE, TVIMONAY LItAtsO yy (I1SOdON | Wy, yf Increase in General Endowment Needed 21 Asiatic Expedition which were sent out through our Bureau of Public Information reached sixty million readers in various parts of the United States. Newspapers, journals, magazines, weeklies and monthlies, secular and religious, as well as school, college and university text and reference books, depend increasingly on the researches and exhibitions of the Ameri- can Museum of Natural History for truthful and interesting information about all the processes of nature which bear di- rectly or indirectly on the welfare of man. In the whole his- tory of education there has never been an influence so wide- spread, so eagerly sought, and so rapidly extending. It is this school and broad educational work which has in- fluenced the present city government to add to maintenance $153,000.00 over the sum appropriated two years ago. This is equivalent to the addition of $3,000,000.00 to the Endowment Fund of the Museum because there is no likelihood that the present total maintenance allowance of $353,025.52 will be di- minished in future years. On the other hand, it will be increased when the new building sections are secured, because it is esti- mated that each section adds about $15,000.00 to the main- tenance costs. The appropriation for maintenance was adopted by unanimous vote of the Board of Estimate and of the Board of Aldermen. The Museum at present has the unanimous sup- port of members of the Board of Education. There is no doubt that the Museum has never been so firmly established in the confidence and esteem of both the people and the government of the City of New York as at the present time. TWO MILLION DOLLARS IN NEW ENDOWMENT NEEDED The present General Endowment Fund of the Museum, which may be devoted to any purpose in the discretion of the Trustees, amounts to $2,880,580.44.. During the present year it will increase to $3,380,580.44 by the final payment of the Margaret Olivia Sage Bequest, yielding a total income of $134,541.57. To this General Endowment, which represents the gifts of many devoted friends of the Museum, there must 22 Report of the President be added not less than two million dollars to meet the current operating costs of the institution without deficiency. During the past two years the deficiency of $113,240.77 has been met by individual contributions of the Trustees, amounting to $55,700.00 in 1919 and 1920, and by the use of accrued inter- est of the Sage Bequest under the terms of the will to the total amount of $57,540.77 in 1920. To meet the deficiency in 1921, accrued interest, estimated at $40,000.00, on the balance of the Sage Bequest, will be used, but this accrued interest will not be available in the year 1922, when the estimated income from our General Endowment and the Sage Funds will be $134, 541.57, leaving an estimated deficiency of $70,000.c9. To pre- pare for this deficiency it is very important at the present time to use every means possible to increase our General Endow- ment by adding the sum of two million dollars to it. The Museum shares with every institution in the United States the doubling of costs, which is due ultimately to the doubling of costs of living and to the doubling of wages. The rising costs of maintenance are indicated in the accompanying figures covering the last decade, namely, from 1910 to 1920, inclusive: Appro- Total priation from Gen- Appropriations eral Endowment and for Maintenance from Special Contri- Appropriation from Taxation, Year butions of Trustees by Taxation Endowment, Gifts 2 TOVOS tees $196,634.00 $185,757.00 $382,391.00 TOMS ane 218,713.05 180,757.00 408,470.65 TOI) Sy ee 265,409.86 195,000.00 460,409.86 TODS sh ceisicie tse 244,414.68 200,000.00 444,414.68 TOTAL csi 213,920.50 200,000.00 413,926.50 IGE SE ceayee 286,253.36 200,000.00 486,253.36 TOUGRe seeks 359,830.20 212,999.00 572,835.20 LOLA mee 494,000.15 212,700.00 700,700.15 YOISh see see 453,010.13 225,000.00 678,010.13 TOU, 1 Silos 419,366.25 200,000.00 619,306.25 BOZO 2 eae 551,956.77 310,983.13 862,939.90 $3,703,521.55 $2,332,196.13 $6,035,717.68 1In the Fifty-first Annual Report, for the year 1919, it was pointed out that a separate educational tax is very desirable. The existing taxpayers of the City constitute only one-tenth of the entire population of the City of New York, on whom rests directly the whole burden of supporting education, as well as the general welfare of the people. In 1919 there were 578,043 taxpayers in the City of New York out of a total population of 6,006,794. “The movement towards a wider distribution of the burden of taxation for educational purposes has made distinct progress during the past year. Summary of Expenditures 23 The cost of maintenance is rising despite the strictest econ- omy in office administration, in the custodianship of the build- ing, in heating and lighting, in repairs and construction, which constitute the bulk of our maintenance expenditures. Our Chief Engineer, Mr. Henry J. Langham, has an exceptional record in the heating and lighting department; in 1919 the coal bill for light, heat and power was $11,990.61, including the generation of some four hundred thousand kilowatt illu- mination and power. In the year 1915 a careful classification of disbursements was instituted in order to keep track of ex- penditures of every kind. A comparison of the grand totals for the years 1919 and 1920 shows that the increase is due to the rapid mounting in wages and salaries and to the cost of materials. The summary of the detailed division of expendi- tures is as follows: I, SCIENTIFIC EXPENDITURES: IQ1Q 1920 1.

The completion of these publications was delayed by the World War, which cut off intercourse for several years with Russia, and with Dr. Waldemar Bogoras and Dr. Waldemar Jochelson, who have been two of the most prominent contribu- tors to the series. Arrangements have now been made for the publication of Volume IV, Part II, “The Tribes of the Amur River,” by Leo Sternberg; Volume IX, Part II, “The Yuka- ghir and the Yukaghirized Tungus,” by Waldemar Jochelson; Volume IX, Part III, “The Asiatic Eskimo,” by Waldemar Bogoras; Volume IX, Part IV, “The Alieut,’ by Waldemar Jochelson. Volumes XI and XII, as originally planned, are to be combined in one. The results of a study of the human re- 26 Report of the President mains collected by the expedition will be presented by Dr. Bruno Oetteking. Professor Boas will discuss the results of the expedition showing the evidences of physical and cultural relationship between the eastern coast of Asia and the western coast of America. This series, projected under the direction of Dr. Frederic Ward Putnam, will be one of the monuments of Presi- dent Jesup’s intelligence and liberality. The completion of the Jesup series will be followed by the preparation of a handbook on the Indian Life of the North Pacific Coast, by Curator Pliny E. Goddard, in which the results achieved will be condensed into more popular form. This work will de- scribe the collections secured by the Jesup Expedition and the collections made by Lieutenant Emmons among the Tlingit and Tsimshian Indians that have placed our North Pacific Hall in the leading rank of anthropological exhibits. The continued explorations in the Southwest with the Archer M. Huntington Fund have taken the Museum into an entirely different field of research, the crowning Lae Aztec purpose of which is to establish the chronology of ueblo the Southwest and the relations between the Pueblo culture of Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona, and that of the Aztecs and Mayas of Mexico. Completion of the reports of the Hyde explorations on the Pueblo Bonito between 1895 and 1900 has been rendered possible through two years’ special labor of Mr. B. Talbot B. Hyde of this Museum, who was the chief donor, and the active cooperation of Mr. George H. Pepper of the Museum of the American Indian, who was in charge of the excavations. The publication will be followed by the volume on the great ruined pueblo of Aztec, where the most interesting and important explorations have been con- ducted for the past four years, with the aid of the Archer M. Huntington Fund, by Mr. Earl H. Morris. Aztec gives more information than we have ever had before, both of the racial characters and of the culture and religious customs of this vanished people. Third Asiatic Expedition 27 Progress toward exhibition in the Mexican Hall has been made through the preparation of two serpent columns, parts of the great temple facade of Chichen Itza, originally The secured for the Museum through the efforts of eg Colonel Edward H. Thompson in 1912, with the idea that the Aztec Mexican Hall which would con- tain them would soon be under process of construction. The present Mexican collection has been enriched by the addition of several of the original stone monuments secured by Mr. John L. Stevens, who visited Yucatan in 1839-1840, on a special mission for the United States Government. These were presented to the Museum through the Jesup Fund. The human history purposes of the Third Asiatic Expedi- tion, under Associate Curator Roy Chapman Andrews, have aroused a wider public interest than any other un- The Third dertaking of the Museum in recent years. Mr. ee Andrews himself presented the subject with great ability throughout the country. The possibility of discovering some link or links in the Asiatic ancestry of man, or at least of adding to the history of man in Asia, has stimu- lated nation-wide interest in this subject and has led to the contribution of nearly two hundred thousand dollars to the Third Asiatic Expedition Fund, the research to be extended over a period of five years and to be published in the Asiatic Researches of the American Museum. The American Asiatic Association and the magazine Asia have cooperated generously in this work, and through the columns of Asia and in the pages of Natural History it is planned to make the results of the Expedition very widely known. The splendid zoological col- lections of the First and Second Asiatic Expeditions will be supplemented by collections from several hitherto unexplored regions on the borders of Mongolia and Tibet, as well as by a trip into the Gobi Desert which is planned through the co- operation of the Geological Survey of China to advance our knowledge of the distribution and succession of the Tertiary beds, and of the Quaternary in which we may expect to find some traces of the prehistory of man. The continued cooper- 28 Report of the President ation of the Chinese Government is assured, and one of the chief purposes of the Expedition on our part is to aid in the training of a number of the young Chinese in zoologic, archzo- logic, and geologic work who will gradually develop materials for an educational natural history museum in Peking. Among the many generous contributors to the Asiatic Fund are the following: American Asiatic Association and William A. Harriman (Trustee) Asia Arthur Curtiss James (Trustee) American Museum of Natural His- Mrs. Adrian Hoffman Joline tory (Jesup Fund) Darwin P. Kingsley George F. Baker (Trustee) Gilbert S.

Wiggin In recognition of his studies in French archeology and an- thropology (“Men of the Old Stone Age”), Professor Osborn has been made a member of the Council of the Prehistory Institut de Paléontologie Humaine of Paris, and Diao ™ a Vice-President of the Eugenics Institute of Great Britain. The preparation and plans of the Hall of the Age of Man have attracted wide attention. In this work our Research Associate, Professor J. Howard McGregor, and our new Curator of Comparative Anatomy, Professor William K. Gregory, have cooperated with Mr. Louis R. Sullivan, mak- ing an effective triumvirate on the ancestral history of man. The formation of the Galton Society, which meets in the Osborn Library, for the discussion of problems of human evolution, has brought anthropologists, anatomists and biolo- gists from all parts of the country to counsel on this problem of problems. Out of this has grown the institution of the Galton Laboratory in the Department of Anthropology, and Mr. Sullivan has been made Director of it. es ELI oe DEPARTMENT OF MAMMALOGY GROUP OF ELEPHANT SEALS Gift of Mr. Arthur Curtiss James. Albatross Expedition Publications 29 PUBLICATIONS FROM THE VOYAGE OF THE Walp ROSS 7 flO Tie GULE OF CALIFORNIA IN iog11 One of our Trustees, Mr. Arthur Curtiss James, generously contributed $7,500 to the “Albatross” Expedition, to which the New York Zoological Society and the New York Botanical Garden each added the sum of $1,000. This has proved to be one of the most successful and effective codperative under- takings of the Museum in recent years. Important publications are now advancing towards comple- tion under the guidance of Dr. Charles H. Townsend, Director of the New York Aquarium, leader of this interesting expe- dition, which left San Francisco on February 23, 1911, and returned on April 28, 1911, on the “Albatross,” a vessel placed at our disposal by the United States Bureau of Fisheries. The Bureau of Fisheries desired information respecting the fish and fisheries and the oceanographical features of Lower Cali- fornia and the Gulf region, referring especially to the desira- bility of further knowledge regarding the supply of edible fishes, oysters and turtles, with the view to inaugurating a fish trade with our southwestern states.

Vol. I, 1919; Vol II, 1920. The Museum’s collections of birds, of fishes, of reptiles, and of mammals were greatly enriched by additions from this bar- ren and inhospitable peninsula of Lower California. Among the discoveries of greatest interest in the mammalian line was a superb colony, on the Island of Guadalupe, of the northern elephant seal, a group of which has recently been mounted (as shown in the accompanying plate) as the gift of Mr. Arthur Curtiss James, and which ultimately will find its way into the Oceanographic Hall. PUBLICATION OF THE ZOOLOGY OF THE GonGcs Still more gratifying, because on a very much larger scale, is the rapid progress being made in the preparation and publi- cation of researches covering the great collections made by the Congo Expedition of the American Museum of Natural His- tory, under Mr. Herbert Lang assisted by Mr. James P. Chapin, in the Congo during the years 1909-1915. The entire collection has been catalogued with its invaluable field notes and confirms our earlier report that it is the most complete and most carefully annotated collection which has ever been Congo Expedition Publications 31 brought out of Africa. By our arrangement with the Belgian Government a set of duplicates and paratypes will be reserved for the Congo Museum at Tervueren near Brussels. Further duplications of the collection will be kept for exchange with American and other foreign museums. Immediately after cataloguing, the material was distributed to a number of the most eminent zoologists in this country, leading experts in their several lines, the remainder being divided among five members of our own staff, namely, Dr. J. A. Allen and Mr. Herbert Lang, for mammals, Mr. James P. Chapin for birds, Dr. Frank E. Lutz for insects, and Mr. John T. Nichols for fishes. The manuscript in every case, instead of lingering, has been pre- pared with the utmost dispatch consistent with thoroughness, accuracy and breadth of treatment. The printing has been done largely on the new American Museum press and reflects great credit on our superintendent of printing, Mr. Klassen, and his assistants, both for the press and color plate work. Scientific reports based largely on material brought back by the Congo Expedition have already been published as fol- lows: bee INTRODUCTORY.—One article, 14 pages. MAMMALS.—Five articles, 209 pages. Birps.—Five articles, 68 pages. ReptiLes.—One article, 240 pages. FisHes.—Three articles, I15 pages. INSECTS.—Six articles, 687 pages. Lower INVERTEBRATES.—Five articles, 460 pages. Total—Twenty-six articles, 1,793 pages. In addition to these there are in press a report on Crabs by Miss Rathbun and an extensive report on Congo Ants and re- lated subjects by Messrs. Wheeler, Bequaert, Bailey, Mann, and Santschi. Several reports on mammals by Dr. Allen, one on amphibia by Mr. Noble, one on snakes by Mr. Schmidt, one on earwigs by Mr. Rehn, and one on annelid worms by Pro- fessor Treadwell have been completed and are awaiting the addition of collector’s notes by Mr. Lang. Other reports are in progress. At the same time a popular work is in prepara- tion by Messrs. Lang and Chapin, based upon the less tech- nical scientific researches. When this work appears, the Mu- seum’s great undertaking in the Congo, which began in 1909 32 Report of the President and thus far has cost $105,089.52, will be completed so far at least as research, publication and scientific arrangement of the collections are concerned. The preparation of these collections for exhibition in the African Hall awaits the erection of that important wing. RAPID PROGRESS IN THE STUDY AND COLLECTION OF BIRDS Ornithology shows the most rapid progress during the last two years under the direction of Curator Chapman. The completion of the Bulletin volume by Dr. Chapman on “The Distribution of Bird Life in Colombia,” which was awarded the Daniel Giraud Elliot Gold Medal by the National Acad- emy of Sciences for the year 1917, is being followed by his preparation of Volume II on the birds of Ecuador and the coast region of northwestern Peru. Doctor Chapman will visit the British Museum in May to study the collections of birds there, on which a large part of our knowledge of the Ecua- dorian avifauna is based, and to make exchanges with the British Museum and with the Rothschild Museum at Tring. It is proposed to devote Volume III of this series on the origin of Andean bird-life to the birds of Chile and of the coast region of southern Peru. This will complete the treatment of the terrestrial bird-life of the Pacific coast of South America. In the meantime, Dr. Robert Cushman Murphy has been elected an associate of Doctor Chapman on the Museum Staff _ and is devoting his entire time to the marine birds of the South American coast collected and presented to the Museum through the generosity of two of our Trustees, Mr. Frederick F, Brewster and Dr. Leonard C. Sanford. No less important for the future of ornithology in the Mu- seum and in this country is the rearrangement of our entire collection of birds from all the continents into a type series and a study and research series. This has occupied the time for nearly two years past of Mr. Miller and Mr. Griscom. The superb collection of North American birds brought to- gether by Dr. Jonathan Dwight will now be arranged in a spe- Bird and Mammal Collections 33 cial room. The entire time of Mr. James P. Chapin has been devoted during the past two years to the birds of the Congo, which will constitute one of the volumes of the Congo series. All together the bird collections of the Museum now rank very high in both North American and South American species, and they are beginning to take high rank in African and Eura- sian material. A rough estimate of the total number of birds from these continents is as follows: North America, in the Museum and deposit collections 100,000 South America, interior and Andean series........... 70,000 South America, Brewster-Sanford marine collections. 3,000 CECE RT DLE SPC CG | Ss Ee ge AS Oe A) EN 14,000 PRETICA, sia4/0.0 18 WE ae ait SE UAE a A Rea ACTS ae NP 9,000 TET are aU ic ae a She evel here PR Si cya atte aie eck esac 700 The enrichment of our collections by the donation of the Brewster-Sanford collection of marine birds will be reinforced by the splendid plans for the survey of the Polynesian bird- life under the direction of Mr. Rollo H. Beck, through the gen- erous gift of Mr. Harry Payne Whitney. Doctor Murphy will assume the scientific description of this collection. DESCRIPTION AND EXTENSION OF OUR MAMMAL COLLECTIONS For some years the senior member of our Scientific Staff, Dr. Joel A. Allen, has devoted his time chiefly to his own researches on mammals and to the supervision of the able group of younger men whom he has trained in various lines of field and museum work. Fortunately Doctor Allen re- tains the full measure of his productive energy and enthusiasm, and he has prepared for publication a series of studies upon various mammal groups of the Congo, especially the Insecti- vora, Sciuromorpha, Carnivora, and Primates. Crowning his long and distinguished career, he has been appointed Honorary Curator, and his curatorial duties have now been divided as follows: Mr. Roy Chapman Andrews, Associate Curator of Mammals of the see i assisted by Mr. Herbert Lang on the African Mr. Harold E. Anthony, Associate Curator of Mammals of the Western Hemisphere. 34 Report of the President The Museum’s collection of mammals is naturally richest from North America, but through the Roosevelt and other South American expeditions our South American series is gaining rapidly. Our African series is especially strong from the Congo region, and we are planning to fill gaps in other portions of Africa through field exploration, purchase and ex- change. Through successive explorations in the West Indies and on the west coast of South America, Mr. Anthony has greatly extended our knowledge of the former relations of the Antillean region with South America. Through the First and Second Asiatic Expeditions of Mr. Andrews, we are becom- ing strong in the temperate region of Asia, and the Third Asiatic Expedition will give the Museum a unique representa- tion of temperate Asiatic life. In tropical Asiatic life we are still far behind, and it is necessary to look forward to future exploration in the so-called Indo-Malayan region. The sum of our mammal collections at present from the various con- tinents is as follows: North America....... 25,200. \sFAISODE ssc 5 eee 550 South America ..).02).) 9,000) Adrican) ce sen one 7,000 ANS TAS eee ies a Dea aes 5,000, , Austndlia ys. 40 Oster 250 This gives the Museum materials for two series of mam- mals, one arranged geographically in the great faunal halls of North America, Asia and Africa, another series arranged according to the relationships of the mammalian groups. COOPERATION AMONG MUSEUMS OF AMERICA With the famous Bishop Museum of Honolulu, the Ameri- can Museum, through journeys of the President and of Curator Wissler to the Hawaiian Islands, has es- Vanishing tablished a cooperative research, beginning with Polynesia the physical survey of the Hawaiian natives by Mr. Louis R. Sullivan. Between three and four thousand dollars have been expended by the Museum on this joint undertaking, as follows: The President’s journey to Hawaii........ $1,500.00 Curator Wissler’s journey to Hawaii....... 600.00 + Mr: Sullivan’s) S€rviceSso2).5 2 ese ee eee ce eine 1,505:00 a Cooperation with Other Museums 35 Preliminary conferences by President Osborn with Director Gregory and President Judd of the Bishop Museum paved the way for Dr. Wissler’s visit as the American Museum repre- sentative at the First Pan-Pacific Scientific Congress in Hono- lulu, in August, 1920. This was followed by Mr. Sullivan’s very able and successful survey, which will be completed in 1921 and published by the Bishop Museum. In return the Bishop Museum will help enrich the American Museum col- lections in Hawaiian ethnology and archeology and both mu- seums will secure fine material for Hawaiian native groups. The American Association of Museums, for the present year under the direction of Mr. Paul M. Rea, director of the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, is con- Exchange stantly becoming stronger and more influential. Collections Lt serves to spread among museums the idea of friendly cooperation rather than of competition and rivalry. It is inevitable that some museums will become stronger in certain departments than in others and will thus acquire duplicate materials far beyond the needs or possibili- ties of exhibition. These materials will either remain idle in storage cases, collecting dust, a source of increased expense, or, after being freely used for research, they will be offered in exchange to enrich the exhibition halls of other institu- tions. This is not only an opportunity, it is a duty to Ameri- can culture and civilization. Every effort is being made by the American Museum, both in America and abroad, to cultivate the most friendly and reciprocal relations and to spread the spirit of good will, and of sacrifice, if necessary, to send material intrinsically valuable to other museums, where it may be seen and enjoyed by the people. The combined mu- seum attendance of all museums in the United States is still smaller than it should be and represents a very limited part of our total population. The celebration of the Golden Anni- versary of our sister institution, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, brought together the directors of the leading museums of the country, and all are agreed that museum cooperation rather than museum rivalry is the note of the coming museum age. 136 Report of the President The American Museum of Natural History, in conjunction with certain other museums, is reciprocating with the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences in the exchange of Exchange membership privileges. When a Member of the - Pe American Museum visits the Museum of the Buf- Privileges falo Society and presents his membership card at the office, the privileges accorded its Members will be accorded the Member of the American Museum. This plan, with which we are heartily in accord, was suggested by the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences, with the hope that such a step would promote the friendly relations already exist- ing between these museums, encourage and stimulate the in- terest of Members, and serve to increase scientific knowledge. MEMBERSHIP AND STAFF At the Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees, on Febru- ary 2, 1920, the Department of Ichthyology and Herpetology was separated into the Department of Ichthyology, Associate Curator John T.

Through Secretary Daniels he obtained a helpful letter to the Governor of Guam. Through Admiral Swinburne, he met and conferred with Captain Roy C. Smith, a former Governor of Guam. Through Mr. Woolcott H. Pitkin, former Attorney General of Porto Rico and later for two years the legal adviser to the King of Siam, he obtained numerous letters to members of the royal family and to off- cials in Siam. Through President Woodward of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, he obtained personal letters of introduction from the Minister of the Netherlands to the Governor General of the Netherlands East Indies and from the Minister of Siam to a member of the royal family. Secre- tary Polk furnished letters to the diplomatic and consular officers in the countries visited by Dr. Crampton. The Governor of Guam, Captain Ivan C. Wettengel, U.S. N., granted to Dr. Crampton many unusual favors, and made it possible for him to proceed to Saipan on a naval ves- sel, the island being a more northerly member of the Mariana group, in the possession of Japan. 44 Report of the President The officers of the Bureau of Science at Manila were most helpful in giving information, and through the Acting Direc- tor, Dr. McGregor, a fine series of photographs was secured for the Museum. Dr. F. G. Haughwout expended consider- able time and energy on Dr. Crampton’s behalf. Governor Harrison placed a Coast Guard steamer at Dr. Crampton’s disposal in order that he might cross Manila Bay to the Mariveles Mountains to see the pygmy natives of that region, but, after landing and starting for the Negrito terri- tory, an accident prevented this. The Executive Secretary of the Canton Christian College, Dr. James M. Henry, as well as other members of the Col- lege, did much to make the time profitable. The zoologist, Professor Howard, is developing a system of collecting which will be exceptionally successful. At Chieng-mai, the principal city of northern Siam, Dr. Crampton was the guest of His Serene Highness, Prince Bovaradej, Viceroy of Northern Siam. Numerous favors were extended and Dr. Crampton was privileged to learn a great deal of the Lao people of this aon and of their highly developed culture. The American Presbyterian Mission has Rest Houses at different places on Doi Sutep mountain, and these were placed at Dr. Crampton’s disposal. The success of the expedition was due mainly to the aid thus rendered, and we wish to make full acknowledgment to Messrs. McKean, Campbell, Cort, Gillies and Reichel, and to Dr. Barnes of the Rockefeller Com- mission at work at Chieng-mai. Several of the mission staff are interested in making further collections for transmission to the Museum. The entomological work in the Rocky Mountains was great- ly facilitated by the courteous and intelligent cooperation of the Rangers and other officials of the Forestry Service of the United States Department of Agriculture. Mr. Herbert F. Schwarz, Mr. Howard Notman, and other members of the New York Entomological Society have kindly assisted in the identification and arrangement of the Study Collection of Insects. Special Gifts and Acknowledgments 45 Mr. Alfred Ehrenreich, President of the Ocean Leather Company, generously made provision that our taxidermsit, Mr. J. C. Bell, should be provided with quarters, meals, stor- age and other assistance at the Company’s station at More- head City, N. C., in order that he might obtain a series of molds of sharks. Mr. A. W. Berner, representative of the Company at Morehead City, kindly made provision for trans- portation for Mr. Bell and supplies to and from their factory, two miles distant. Mr. Russell J. Coles contributed material and assistance to the expedition. President James Asbury Allison, of the Miami Aquarium Association, extended courtesies to Mr. Nichols on his col- lecting trip in Florida and vicinity. The Governor of the French possessions of the Pacific Ocean gave to his various representatives instructions to facilitate Mr. Rollo H. Beck’s ornithological survey of the Pacific Islands. The Wai Chiao Pu (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) freely granted permits for the Second Asiatic Expedition to travel throughout China, and extended other courtesies, for which we wish to express our appreciation. The expedition was under the leadership of Mr. Roy Chapman Andrews. In Peking, His Excellency Dr. Paul S. Reinsch, formerly American Minister to China; Dr. C. D. Tenney, Chargé d’Affaires of the American Legation; Mr. Willys Peck, Chinese Secretary of the American Legation; Mr. Ernest B. Price, Assistant Chinese Secretary of the American Legation, and other members of the Legation staff assisted the expedi- tion in obtaining import permits and in other details connected with the Chinese Government. Mr. A. M. Guptil acted as the Peking representative of the Second Asiatic Expedition while the expedition was in the field, and assumed much annoying detail in forwarding and receiving shipments of supplies and equipment. Other gentle- men in Peking who rendered assistance in various ways are Commander I. V. Gillis and C. T. Hutchins, Naval Attaché 46 Report of the President of the American Legation; Dr. George D. Wilder; Dr. J. G. Andersson, Mining Adviser to the Chinese Republic; and Messrs. H. C. Faxon, E. G. Smith, C. R. Bennett, J. Kenrick, and M. E. Weatherall. In Kalgan, Mr. Charles L. Coltman, who arranged for the transportation of the expedition to Mongolia, not only gratu- itously acted as the expedition’s agent, but was always ready to devote his own time and the use of his motor cars to further the work of the party. In Urga, Mr. F. A. Larsen, of Anderson, Meyer & Com- pany, was of invaluable assistance in obtaining horses, carts and other equipment for the expedition as well as in giving us the benefit of his long and unique experience in Mongolia. Mr. E. V. Olufsen, of Anderson, Meyer & Company, put him- self, his house, and his servants at the disposal of the expedi- tion whenever the party was in Urga, and assisted in innumer- able ways. Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Mamen often entertained the members of the expedition in their home. Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Mac- Callie, who accompanied the expedition on one trip across Mongolia and later resided temporarily in Urga, brought equip- ment for the expedition across Mongolia and entertained the party while they were preparing to return to Peking. Monsieur A. Orlow, Russian Diplomatic Agent in Urga, was of great assistance in obtaining permits from the Mon- golian Government for the work of the expedition in the Urga region. In South China, Reverend H. Castle of Tunglu, and Rev- erend Lacy Moffet planned a hunting trip in Che-kiang Province. In Shanghai the Honorable E. S. Cunningham, American Consul-General, materially assisted the expedition in the ship- ment of specimens. To Mr. G. M. Jackson, General Passen- ger Agent of the Canadian Pacific Ocean Services, thanks are due for arranging for rapid transportation to America of our valuable collections. The Pacific Mail Steamship Company has been very help- ful in the handling of freight for the Third Asiatic Expedi- tion, and has made other concessions, which were of material Special Gifts and Acknowledgments 47 benefit. The expedition is under the leadership of Mr. Roy Chapman Andrews. The Fulton Motor Truck Company has presented the Third Asiatic Expedition with two of its one-ton trucks, which are especially fitted for rough work. These trucks are equipped with pneumatic tires, and have a speed of forty-five miles an hour. They will be used as movable bases for field work in Mongolia. The Savage Arms Corporation has presented a large num- ber of rifles and a large amount of ammunition to the Third Asiatic Expedition. The Hunter Arms Company, of Fulton, N. Y., has presented a number of shot-guns to the Third Asiatic Expedition. We wish to acknowledge the great assistance given to Mr. Anthony and his party by Mr. Frank Cundall, by the va- rious departments of the Jamaica Government, and by the United Fruit Company’s representative, Mr. F. G. Kieffer. At Portovelo, a mining camp of the South American De- velopment Company in the southern part of Ecuador, every facility was given by the Company to our Ecuadorian Expe- dition under Mr. H. E. Anthony, by means of which the ex- pedition was able to carry on work at a very reasonable ex- penditure. This assistance also went far toward bringing the efforts of the expedition up to a high degree of effi- ciency. The noted American hunter and sportsman, Mr. Walter Winans, died suddenly in London on August 12. Mr. Winans was a Life Member of the Museum. The most noteworthy of his gifts, which were the result of his skill with the rifle, are the group of wild boars from the Black Forest, awaiting a place in the hall devoted to the life of Europe and Asia, and a series of pheasants, illustrating various phases in al- binism. His last gift was a specimen of the Chillingham wild cattle, regarded as a survival of the native British oxen. Mr. Thomas C. White, of Kealakekua, Kona, Hawaii, the agent for the Bishop Estate, traveled for a month with Mr. Sullivan around the islands for his traveling expenses only, and it was through his assistance that Mr. Sullivan was able to examine so many natives in so short a time. He placed at 48 Report of the President Mr. Sullivan’s service his knowledge of the Hawaiian lan- guage, his understanding of the Hawaiian people, resulting from many years of experience, and his great tact and skill in dealing with them. Attendance 49 REPORTS OF THE DIRECTOR AND CURATORS REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR Freperic A. Lucas In the Report for 1919 the President stated that the Museum was going backward; to the Director it would seem that the situation is that of a vessel voyaging through Arctic ice; her progress is impeded; it is not possible to proceed in a direct line, but here and there a lead opens, and by taking advantage of each opportunity that offers, there is steady though slow and indirect progress toward the desired point. Thus it has been with the Museum during the past year; there are many things that we would have liked to do but could not; on the other hand many improvements have been made in all parts of the Museum. For if it be not possible to increase collec- tions on exhibition, it is always possible to improve them by substitution, rearrangement, better methods of display, or, most important of all, by better labeling. Excellent illustrations of what can be thus accomplished are shown in the various halls devoted to Mammals, where Mr. Coleman has given much time to improving the appearance of the exhibits by changes in installation, replacement of pedestals and changes in the mounting and placing of labels. Much attention has been given to the use of good-sized type and placing labels where they can be seen. Perhaps the most com- mon fault in labels is the use of too small type. It is frequently necessary to sacrifice appearance to utility, but it is a waste of time to write and print a label and then place it where it can be read with difficulty. It is pleasant to report that the attendance during the past. year has been the largest in the history of the Museum; this is especially gratifying as it accords with the Direc- tor’s belief and experience that any real and permanent gain in attendance must come through the character Attendance 50 Report of the President of the exhibits and not be brought about by special exhibitions and sporadic over-advertising. Judicious advertising is an- other matter, and this has been quietly and systematically car- ried on by Mr. Pindar, who has steadily kept the work of the Museum before the public and kept it informed of new and interesting exhibits. In connection with this publicity work, 47 bulletins were prepared, and a total of nearly 5,000 copies distributed, accord- ing to subjects, among 275 names on the mailing list. Besides this, many photographs and much information on special sub- jects were sent on request. That there is much of wide general interest is shown by the number of articles that have found their way into papers in all parts of the country, and here we are under obligations to the press for the amount of space it has given in both news and editorial columns. The large attendance is also gratifying in view of the severe weather of the first of the year and the wretched condition of the streets with the consequent difficulty of getting about and the failure of some street-car lines to run for many days.

Exclusive of “An Hour in the Museum,” 2,400 copies of which were sold, the sales were as follows: General Guide, 4,225; Handbooks, 1,791; Leaflets, Sales of Publications S ‘ . i ¥ Ne = ‘ s t 4 ’ : , my 7) , * re EE ————EOO WOOUSSHAd WOASOPT FHL Printing Plant 51 4,542; reprints, 1,129; a total of 11,687 copies, or 2,665 more than in 1919. Part of the large sale of publications is due to the fact that the Guide was kept more continuously in print than ever before, but an offset to this is found in the fact that, on account of the amount of printing on hand, it was not pos- sible to keep the Leaflets and Handbooks as constantly in print as the Guide; otherwise the sales would probably have been greater than they were. The work of the printing office has been, as usual, large and varied. Its efficiency has been increased to some extent by the addition of a second monotype casting machine, aera and much more by the transfer of the printing ant Bena office to the basement, thus bringing together the entire force and equipment. That more labels have not been printed is due to the fact that so many have been provided in the past few years that we are beginning to catch up, though it is safe to say that no museum is ever completely labeled. Another step which has added greatly to the ability of the Museum to handle its publications promptly and efficiently has been the addition of folding and stitching machines to the bindery—under the charge of the librarian; but, since no addi- tion was made to the bindery force, the amount of work turned out for the library of necessity has been lessened. Aside from the Scientific Publications, noted in the Report of the Editor, the following have been printed : Pages Copies rece er GINEE Meo ee ab ese! oes 136 5,000 imeeans (ot the.

The installation of the Group of Sea Elephants, presented by Mr. Arthur Curtiss James, provisional though it be, shows what might be done in the projected Hall of Ocean Life, where it belongs, and for which an equally striking group of Steller’s Sea Lion has been planned, though, owing to the congested condition of the exhibits, no steps have been taken to secure the neces- sary material. Groups of Coyotes and Wildcats have been added to the series of North American Mammals and a number of single specimens to the Synoptic Series. Barring accidents, there should be on hand at the close of 1921 the following material for the Hall of Ocean Life: Groups of Sea Elephant, Fur Seals, Harp Seals, King Penguin, and Atlantic Walrus, besides many single specimens of seals, whales and porpoises. No attempt has been made to mount the skeletons of whales secured by Mr. Andrews, one of which has been lost by fire and others damaged because there was no room to care for them. A most acceptable addition is a fine bust of John Muir, by Malvina Hoffman, the gift of Mrs. E. H. Harriman. An interesting painting is that of the natural bridge at Candi, Colombia, noted by Humboldt, given by Mr. H. D. Perrine. Heating and Lighting 33 There were no large special exhibits during the year, but there were several small displays of great interest, the most important being that of the wireless telephone an installed by the American Telephone and Tele- graph Company and the Western Electric Com- pany, under the auspices of the Section of Astronomy, Physics and Chemistry of the New York Academy of Sciences, in co- operation with the National Research Council. Two other exhibitions of particular interest were a series of Museum posters designed by the girls of the Art Class of the Washing- ton Irving High School, and one of posters teaching kindness to animals, prepared by pupils under fifteen—mostly much younger, and shown under the auspices of the Humane Educa- tion Committee of the New York Women’s League for Animals. Many interesting exhibits could have been held had space been available, but even the West Assembly Hall, which was used for the exhibition of paintings, is now occupied by exhibits. The projected School Service Building, Southwest Court, would furnish room for such exhibits, while the space for storage, work-rooms and studios would relieve some sections of the Museum from the congestion now existing. The amount of electric current used annually continues to increase, and this year totals 407,000 kilowatt hours, which was produced at a net cost of 1.9 per kilowatt Heating hour, a price made possible by the fact that dur- ing cold weather the exhaust steam is used for heating the building. The boilers and electric generators are in excellent condition in spite of their age, but the engines are in need of repairs to bring them up to their original efficiency. Provision was made by the city, in the budget for 1921, for the installation of the much needed panel board for the lighting system of groups, and for the repair of the elevators. Many repairs have been made to the steam piping and plumbing, which have been in use for many years and are showing the effects of the constant wear to which they have 54 Report of the President been subjected. This work is rendered difficult by the fact that the pipes and leaders are built into the floor and walls and are difficult of access. The Registrar has continued the work of recording and cataloguing the accessions of past years, received before the department was established, and the lists of Accessions donors and objects from 1869 to date are now Shipivents complete. There have been during this year, 3,012 incom- ing shipments, including 6,693 packages, and 600 outgoing shipments comprising 1,282 packages. The need of space is repeated for the benefit of those who do not visit the Museum. Those who do, know how aisles are growing narrower and narrower, unrelated Needs of exhibits elbowing one another for room, and in pee some instances specimens swaddled like mum- mies in protecting cloths decorate (?) the tops of cases. A striking example of this is to be seen in the Hall of Dinosaurs where creatures separated by six millions of years in time are separated by scant six feet of space. The problem is the reverse of that of the Iron Shroud—the walls are not contracting but the collections are continually expand- ing. The results are the same—deadly constriction. A crying need of the Museum is a complete set of window shades. Many of those in use are in tatters and all are in a dilapidated condition. To say that there are 783 windows which call for 1,635 shades will give an idea of the extent of our needs. The amount required to replace these is from $7,500 to $9,000. As a matter of duty, attention is again called to the desir- ability of a high fence around the Museum, beginning on the north in a line with 79th Street, to protect the grounds so that they may form a proper setting for the Museum. Playgrounds are necessary for children—but playgrounds and parks cannot exist together, and the grounds in front of the Museum should form a beautiful setting for the building instead of presenting a mass of barren spots and broken shrubs. DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC EDUCATION In THE AUDITORIUM Lecture on Wild Flowers by Dr. Fisher. istening to a Public School Children L Public Education in the Museum and Schools 55 PUBLIC EDUCATION IN THE MUSEUM AND IN PAE SChOOLS * GrorceE H. SHERWoop, Curator The extent of the Museum’s services to schools through the Department of Public Education in 1920 is the greatest in the history of the Department. Not only has this Bett educational work been more extensive, but more intensive than ever before. The old, well estab- lished activities (Circulating Nature Study Collections, Lecture Courses, Slide Distribution, Education for the Blind, etc.) have been maintained at full capacity and new lines of contact with the educational system of the City have been developed (Service to the Training Schools, Cooperation with the Bureau of Visual Instruction, New Food Exhibit, and Service to the Art Teachers). The following comparative summary of the statistics for 1919 and 1920 tells the story more graphically than words: Percentage of 1919 1920 Increase CircuLATING NATURE StuDy COLLECTIONS: Number of Collections in Use.......... 668 887 33% Number of Schools Served............. 385 448 16% Number of Pupils Studying Collections.. 860,992 1,176,055 36% LECTURES :!

The foremost is the keen, personal interest which each member of the Pause in Department has taken in the work and the splendid spirit of codperation resulting there- from. A second factor is the generous attitude of the newly organized Bureau of Visual Instruction of the Board of Edu- cation, under the direction of Dr. Ernest L. Crandall, and the friendly codperation extended by Dr. Crandall through his associate, Miss Rita Hochheimer. Dr. Crandall has devoted the energies of his department mainly to increasing the visual instruction apparatus in the schools, leaving to the Museum the supplying of the slides and other illustrative material. A third factor of great fundamental importance is the growth of appreciation on the part of the teachers of the real value of these methods of visual instruction. A greater number of nature study collections have been in circulation than ever before, and they have been studied by 1,176,055 pupils during the year. The extensive Nature use of this material speaks well for its practical ogy teaching value, since nature study is no longer a required subject in the curriculum and its pres- entation is dependent upon the interest and initiative of the individual teacher. The loan material is composed of two types of collections: The first consists of birds, insects, lower invertebrates, woods, minerals, etc., of which there are many duplicate sets available; the second consists of material assem- bled for some specific purpose, i.e., classes in design, historical pageants, etc. Comparison of the statistics for 1920 with those for the preceding four years shows an interesting growth: 1916 1917 1918 IQIQ 1920 Number of Collections MT USE aaa 704 712 629 668 887 Number of Schools in Greater New York Stipplieds | Wie chao 4390 446 AIO 385 448 Number of Pupils Studying Collections. 1,118,322 1,075,076 790,346 860,992 1,176,055 Lecture for School Children 57 As an aid to the domestic science teachers, an exhibit show- ing proper daily food for a child has been prepared in conjunc- tion with the Department of Public Health. Traveling Twenty duplicate sets have been made. The ood sels ; Exhibit exhibit consists of models or samples of foods, put up in a small carrying case, and so arranged that they can be assembled to show a proper meal for a child. The food value of each portion is clearly indicated, and the exhibit is further explained by a set of eight charts giving dietary facts and figures. A leaflet prepared by Miss Mary Greig, setting forth fundamental principles of the diet, accom- panies each collection. This circulating exhibit was prepared at the suggestion of Superintendent Gustave Straubenmiiller, and will be distributed to the schools. A further extension of loan service to schools is being devel- oped under the advice of Dr. James P. Haney, Supervisor of Art, and a special Committee of art teachers appointed by him. Through their codperation, certain natural history specimens, especially good as subjects for drawing and other art work, will be loaned to the schools for use in the art classes. Art and Design The various lectures for school children given by the mem- bers of the Department and those associated with them have been well attended and are increasingly popular. Lectures for As heretofore, the subjects are designed to sup- eae plement the classroom instruction in geography, history and natural science. This year consider- able care was exercised to select topics of current or wide general interest. The subjects included “The Story of the Pilgrims,” “France and Her Neighbors,” “Russia in Europe,” etc. All the lectures are illustrated with lantern slides and films. 58 Report of the President Continuing the policy of recent years, the Museum has given lectures in four lecture centers and in several of the schools. The most satisfactory center has been maintained poral in the Washington Irving High School, in codp- Co eration with Miss Florence Slater. This center approaches the ideal. The classes from the ele- mentary schools within easy walking distance come to the auditorium of this high school and the Museum lecturers meet them there. In this way the Museum is brought to children who cannot afford the carfare to go to the Museum. Series of lectures were also given in Public School No. 64, Manhat- tan, Mr. Louis A. Marks, Principal; in Public School No. 42, Bronx, Mr. Eugene B. Gartlan, Principal; and in Public School No. 30, Bronx, Miss Mary A. Conlon, Principal. A new line of contact with the schools which bids fair to be the most important of all has been developed through a Ses series of lectures given by the Museum staff in the Training ‘he New York Training School for, Terctiers School for In this school alone several hundred young Teachers Ue i ap women are in intensive training for teachers. The great majority of them enter the New York City System. It is of importance, therefore, for them to become acquainted with the Museum and its educational resources before they take up their profession. The lectures have a twofold pur- pose: To give the student teachers greater breadth of vision, and to demonstrate how they can use Museum material. A good beginning has been made and we hope and expect that very practical results will follow. In addition to these regular lecture courses, a considerable number of special lectures have been given at the Museum or in the schools. During Regents’ Week in Janu- General ary and in June, large numbers of high school Lectures and : Ae Sumnany pupils visited the Museum for lectures and labo- ratory work. In the regular courses of lectures for Members and Children of Members, 16 lectures have been given, with a) total attendance of 12,020. (The lectutesmte Lending of Lantern Slides 59 school children in the Museum numbered 67, with an attend- ance of 40,005. Lectures to children outside of the Museum numbered 49, with an attendance of 33,761, making a grand total of lectures to children of public schools of 116, with a total attendance of 73,766. The lectures to private schools and other organizations numbered 17, with an attendance of 3,078. There has been a gain of nearly 29% in the number of lectures given to school children, and a gain of 50% in the attendance over the year 19109. The lecture work is under the general supervision of the Associate Curator, Dr. G. Clyde Fisher, upon whom the largest burden of lecturing falls. The most conclusive evidence of the growing appreciation of the real value of visual instruction material is the great increase in the number of slides used in the Lending of — schools. Although we have been unable to meet a all demands, the number of slides circulated has risen from 80,468 in 1919 to 138,133 in 1920, an increase of nearly 72%. A more accurate index, however, is in the separate loans. These have risen from 1,470 in 1919 to 2,435 in 1920, an increase of nearly 66%. This rapid growth may be attributed to several reasons: First, the active codp- eration of the Bureau of Visual Instruction under Director Ernest L. Crandall has been an important factor (not only has the Bureau encouraged the teachers to apply to the Museum for slides, but its efforts have been concentrated upon equipping the schools with lanterns, rather than in producing slides) ; second, the simplicity of the methods of obtaining the slides (Museum messengers deliver the slides and call for them at the end of the loan periods) ; third, the overcrowding of the schools necessitates the modified Gary plan with an auditorium teacher who lectures with slides; fourth, the great stress that has been laid upon visual instruction methods in recent educational gatherings. The comparative statistics with previous years are given below; 60 | Report of the President I9l5. 1916 1917 1918 I9I9 | 1920 Number of Public Schools Borrowing Slides ue Meenas cane 35 63 84 102 92 154 Number of Other Bor- FOWELS Cine 16 30 30 30 72 81 Total Number of Bor- TONERS (ose ce ae Ne 51 93 123 132 164 235 Number of Loans...... 196 680 935 1,084. 1,470!) @ags Number of Slides Cir- Culabed eens ae 11,929 38,012 63,111 72,287 80,468 138,133 Again, it has been shown that the teachers find the Lecture Sets with manuscripts great time savers and therefore even more useful than the general slide collections. About 43% of the slides loaned during the year were in these sets. This percentage would have been higher had more duplicate sets been available. As it was, the Department was unable to fill all the requests for several of the sets. Several new sub- jects have been added recently to the series, namely: : Set No. 27—Russia in Europe—lIts Physical Features, by Alla Kretchman Set No. 28—Our National Parks, by Grace E. Fisher Set No. 29—Visiting the Other Americans, by Grace E. Fisher Set No. 30—Plymouth and the Pilgrims, by Jannette Lucas There are thirty prepared lectures, and, as several of these have been duplicated, the total number of sets in circulation is forty-five. A new edition of the general catalogue of lantern slides was issued in October, 1920. This catalogue gives the different topics in geography, history, natural science, and industries, and the number of slides available under each group. The lending of slides is the one phase of the Museum’s educational work which receives any direct financial support from the Board of Education. In 1920, $2,000 Support from was appropriated for this work. This is the same aoe amount allowed as in 1916, although the circu- lation of slides has increased 260%. ‘This appro- priation is wholly inadequate, but rather than see the work stop, the Trustees met the deficit for 1920. Work with the Blind 61. The slide distribution is under the immediate direction of Miss Grace E. Fisher, whose services deserve special com- mendation. The work with the blind and sight conservation classes, under the direction of Miss Ruth E. Crosby, has far surpassed its previous records. From the twenty subjects which were offered during the year, an unusually large number of talks were chosen by the teachers, and good weather permitted regular attendance. Dur- ing the year, 117 talks were given to 17 different classes, with a total attendance of 1,656. This growth is due in part to the organization of new classes in the public schools and the enlarged enrolment of the existing classes. In addition to this work with the public schools, two nature- study classes from the New York Institute for the Blind have been conducted through the Museum halls to study some of the mounted animals. Both in the public schools and in the New York Institute for the Blind, the children have the opportunity of examining nature study specimens loaned by the Museum. Eleven of the regular sight conservation classes are now provided with large relief globes made by the Museum especially for their use. Thirteen more of these globes are at present being com- pleted to fill requests of other teachers. The extensive work with the blind is made possible through the Jonathan Thorne Memorial Fund, which provides for run- ning expenses, new equipment, and even the transportation of the classes to and from the Museum talks. In order to codp- erate as fully as possible with other agencies, the Museum has recently become a member of the New York State Federation of Workers for the Blind. Mr. Sherwood has been made a member of the Board of Directors as a representative of the Museum. Work with the Blind 62 Report of the President Another phase of the extension work carried on by the Department is the lending of natural history and geographical material for exhibition in the Branch Libraries Loans to of the City. To our list of eighteen regular ex- aia hibits, two new ones have now been added, one on “Bird Engineers,” showing some of the types of nests with the birds which made them, and one on “Moths of the Limberlost,’ comprising the life history cases of the moths mentioned in the book of that name. Besides these, to meet special requests, temporary exhibits have been made up and sent out, on Basketry, Pottery, Birds, Moths and Butter- flies, and Indians. On April 6, at the Bruce Memorial Library, West 125th Street, a talk was given by Miss Crosby on the Museum’s work with the blind. A special collection of mate- rial used in teaching the blind classes was loaned to illustrate the talk and afterwards placed on exhibition in the Library. During 1920, 136,432 persons were reached by these collec- tions, an increase of 31,865 over last year. In connection with these library collections, there has devel- oped a new line of work which holds promise of future growth. During the last year, the time allowed in the schools for the study of geography has been virtually halved. In the effort to impart something besides names and figures in the short time allowed, the teacher in charge of geography classes in Public School 62, Manhattan, appealed to the Museum for the use of its library collections on geographical subjects. These exhibits, together with maps, photographs and slides, give the pupils a conception of different countries and different modes of life which could not be obtained through text-books alone. The extension service to the libraries is under the immediate direction of Miss Ruth E. Crosby. As the exhibition collections are extended, there is an increasing demand for guidance through the halls. This applies to the general visitors, but especially to Exhibition classes of school children. Consequently a con- Hell siderable amount of the time of Department staff members is given to this practical instruction. The bird habitat groups, the Age-of-Man Hall, the Darwin Instruction : F a7 ' ‘ ; i 4 7 4-4 " | | i ‘ | 7 | hanes t } | ; . ‘ 1 } : | 3 | i : rea £ | | | | | ‘ = Zt 3 ‘YIOM SIU] Ul onBeo7qT oy} YIIAA Se}etodooy) wnasnyp, oy L NVLIVHNYV JJ ‘TO ‘ON TOOHOS JITHNd NI qNoOvayT FAaXOLVN TOOHOS FHL AO WOOY AXOLVN AHA NOILVOONGHA OITd#Nd AO LNYWLAVdIAd Photographic Services 63 Hall, the mammal groups and the Indian collections are espe- cially popular. These special groups visiting the Darwin Hall during the year numbered 579, comprising 17,622 pupils from 253 institutions. Exhibition hall instruction is also carried on through the comprehensive labels of the exhibits which Director Lucas is developing. The importance of this silent instruction is often overlooked. For instance, during Regents’ Weeks thousands of high school pupils carry on laboratory and field work in the halls, using the labels as a text-book. The total attendance of visiting classes numbered 33,152. The photographic work stands as the indirect educational activity of the Department. Through this illustrative mate- rial, which is prepared for Natural History and pee ieeraphic other Museum publications, or which is supplied to the Publicity Committee, writers, publishers and lecturers, the Museum is extending its usefulness. The amount of this work is considerable. During 1920, the photo- graphic division produced 2,013 negatives, 16,385 prints, 796 enlargements and transparencies, and 4,494 lantern slides. The reference file has been augmented by 7,626 negatives, including 3,874 presented by Mr. Julian A. Dimock and 2,000 received from Dr. Frank M. Chapman. Our reference file now con- tains 68,265 negatives and 79,360 catalogued prints. Early in the year Miss Ruth E. Crosby was promoted from Assistant to Assistant Curator. In November, eee? Miss Helen M. Vreeland, who for nine years had rendered faithful service as Secretary of the De- partment, resigned, taking with her in her new career the best wishes of her co-workers. Miss Anne E. Bacon was ap- pointed to this position on November 15, 1920. Although the regular extension work fully occupies the time of the Department Staff, there have been several instances in which the advice and counsel of staff members Outside have been sought by outside organizations. The Activities c 4 of Staff urator was elected one of the Directors of the School Nature League with which the Museum has been actively cooperating. The Curator and Associate 64 Report of the President Curator prepared the Nature Study Section of the handbook of the Girl Scouts, which was published early in the year. This section, which comprises more than eighty pages of the manual, is illustrated largely from photographs of groups and other exhibits in the American Museum. Dr. Fisher has been an active member of the committee working to formulate a program of motion pictures on biologi- cal subjects to be used by the High Schools of New York City. This committee was appointed by Dr. Ernest L. Crandall, Director of Lectures and Visual Instruction for the Board of Education of this city. During July and August, Dr. Fisher conducted nature study in Camp Wigwam, a large boys’ camp located near Harrison, Maine. He also conducted field work in the study of birds at the Annual Camp Directors’ Conference in cooperation with the Woodcraft League, in May. : Besides lecturing before many private schools, clubs and other educational organizations, Dr. Fisher spoke before The New York Association of Biology Teachers, The New England Con- ference of the American Association of Museums, The Women’s Auxiliary of the Staten Island Institute of Arts and Sciences, and the New Jersey State Council of Education, on the subject of Visual Education as provided by the American Museum of Natural History, with special reference to the use of motion pictures in teaching biology. Miss Crosby represented the Museum at the Annual Meeting of the New York State Federation of Workers for the Blind. During the year a number of gifts have been received, formal acknowledgment for which is given in the complete accession list. We desire, however, to express our indebt- edness to the following individuals and organiza- tions that have extended courtesies which have been of material assistance in carrying on the work of the Department: New York State Conservation Commission, for the loan of motion picture films on forest-fire protection and methods of reforestation; J. H. Foster, State Forester of New Hampshire, for the use of material for lantern slides on the White Pine blister-rust; New York Historical Society, for Acknowledg- ments Acknowledgments 65 permission to photograph historical material for lantern slides ; Old Colony Trust Company, Boston, and Continental Life Insurance Company, New York, for the loan of pictures for historical lantern slides. Special mention should be made of the gift by Mr. Julian A. Dimock of nearly 4,000 superb negatives of outdoor subjects; of the gift of a reel of motion picture film entitled “The Why of a Volcano,” by the Educa- tional Films Corporation of America; and the gift of one reel and two half reels.of educational motion picture films from the Bray Studios. 66 Report of the President GEOLOGY, GEOGRAPHY AND PAST LIFE OF itis EARTH * Epmunp Otis Hovey, Curator The rearrangement of the historical and biological series of fossils had advanced so far that in March the exhibition hall was reopened to the public. Four additional up- Panton right cases were prepared to the point of con- structing the wire frame for the background for the reception of topogeologic models. The hypothetical land and sea areas have been painted on the eight paleogeographic models of North America. The core of the White Mountains, New Hampshire, model was finished early in the year and that of the Porto Rico region was prepared. These, together with those of the Topogeologi- Mt. Holyoke Range, Massachusetts, region, Wat- eee kins Glen region, and Standing Stone, Tennessee, region, which were completed earlier, were put into the hands of Morgan Brothers for modeling, and all five are promised for installation early in 1921. The core of a similar relief model of the Yosemite Valley will be ready for _ modeling early in 1921. The arranging and labeling of exhibition specimens has been advanced, particularly in the sponge, coral, graptolite, cephalo- pod, trilobite, echinoderm and stratigraphic ex- Labeling and hibits. Catalogue cards for the pelecypod exhibit cotelogue have been completed, also for the Schrammen Work p 2 exhibit of fossil sponges in the type series, and progress has been made in carding the Whitfield catalogue of invertebrate fossils. The Curator revised and brought up to date, with the help of * Under the Department of Geology and Invertebrate Paleontology (see also pages 210 to 212). Geological Research 67 Mr. Adam Britickner and the volunteer assistance of Mrs. E. O. Hovey, the card catalogue of the collection of meteorites, and he has begun the task of putting the numbers on the specimens. This work has emphasized the facts that our collection is second only, in this country, to that of the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, in regard to the number of falls and finds represented, and that it surpasses all others in some important respects of scientific value and interest. A paper by Doctor Carlotta J. Maury, entitled “Tertiary Mollusca from Porto Rico and their Zonal Relations,” based on our collections, the study for which was com- Publication pleted in 1919, was published in May, 1920, by the New York Academy of Sciences. One by Doctor Marjorie O’Connell, entitled “Jurassic Ammonite Fauna of Cuba,’ likewise based on our collections, has appeared this year in the Bulletin of the Museum. A paper by Associate Curator Reeds on “Mounting Geological Speci- mens with Sulphur,” was read at the annual meeting of the American Association of Museums in May and published in Museum Work in November. Dr. Reeds read a paper on “Some Red Limestones from Oklahoma” at a meeting of the - New York Academy of Sciences. He has also completed his Bathymetrical Chart of the Caribbean region, which is ready for publication as soon as his accompanying text has been written. The Curator has published some short articles in Natural History. The Curator did field work connected with the preparation of the topogeologic relief models of the Mt. Washington and Mt. Holyoke areas, the Yosemite Valley area, the Standing Stone, Tennessee, area, and the Wat- kins Glen area. In the Mt. Washington, Mt. Holyoke and Watkins Glen areas, he was accompanied by Mr. Lester Morgan, the modeler. Mr. Morgan also visited the Standing Stone area by himself. The Curator visited the Copper Queen Mine region at Bisbee, Arizona, and made an extended visit to the Hawaiian Islands, where he collected rock specimens and secured a valuable series of photographic negatives on the islands of Kauai, Oahu, Maui and Hawaii. Field Work 68 Report of the President Associate Curator Reeds, accompanied by Mr. P. B. Hill, did field work on the Helderberg escarpment near Utica, Cobleskill and Schoharie, New York; Palmerton, Schuylkill Haven and Pine Grove, Pa., and on the outliers near Cornwall and Hudson, New York, which resulted in valuable additions to our series of fossils and photographs from those localities. Assistant Edward J. Foyles spent nine days in field work on the Standing Stone, Tennessee, relief model area and three weeks in studies and collecting in eastern Kentucky. Dr. Hovey attended the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America in Chicago, in December. He was one of the delegates representing the Museum at the Scientific Annual Meeting in May of the American Asso- Paes bay ciation of Museums in Washington, D. C., and he was one of the Museum’s representatives at the First Pan-Pacific Scientific Conference, held in Honolulu in August. The seismograph installed here as a deposit by the New York Academy of Sciences has continued under the care of Dr. ) Reeds, and he has seen to its operation with the Seismograph 1,215 of Mr. Prentice B. Hill. Some good records have been obtained. Much of Dr. Reeds’s time has been occupied in arranging and supervising the work of the assistants engaged on the palzontological collections. He has also selected and prepared certain material for the explanatory and evolution series and attended to other routine work. The death of Mr. Adam Brickner on the twelfth of Decem- ber removed an assistant who had served faithfully for many years, first under Professor Whitfield and then under the present Curator. We wish to record here our tribute to him for his constant effort to do his duty to the limit. He learned much about the collections and worked loyally and persistently even when suffering from physical weakness. Staff Geological Accessions 69 Among gifts received, mention may be made of a large lava stalactite from a grotto formed in the 1919 eruption of Kilauea, collected in March, 1920, by Dr. T. A. Jaggar, Jr., and presented by the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, together with other interesting specimens from the volcano. | Noteworthy additions to our meteorite collection are: An 841-gram (1 pound 13.6 ounce) fragment, the largest in exist- ence, of the Colby, Wisconsin, stone; a 96-gram (3.4 ounce) slice of the rare Chinautla, Guatemala, iron, and an 856-gram (1 pound 14.2 ounce) outside slice of the San Cristobal, Chile, iron. Among other purchases we may cite, as being of par- ticular interest, a lava stalagmite from the 1919 Alika flow from Mauna Loa, Hawaii, and a large collection of Upper Silurian fossils from the Island of Gotland collected by Dr. A. Schrammen. Through Museum expeditions our collections have been en- riched by specimens of sundry lava flows in the Hawaiian Islands, collected by E. O. Hovey; invertebrate fossils from Helderbergian outcrops at localities in New York and Pennsyl- vania, collected by C. A. Reeds; rocks and invertebrate fossils from the vicinity of Monticello, Ky., collected by E. J. Foyles. Accessions 70 Report of the President MINERALS AND GEMS #* Hersert P. Wuittocx, Curator To answer the question “What is a Mineral?” one side of a large A-case in the Morgan Hall of Minerals has been utilized for the display of a series of twelve group labels. ial Taken in order, these illustrate, by diagrams and annotated specimens, the extent of the portion of the earth’s crust from which we derive our knowledge of its constituents; the proportion of the elements distributed throughout this zone of rocks in the form of minerals; the minerals exhibited in a piece of common granite; the elements which combine to form these, and their relations as constitut- ing mineral groups; how a mineral specimen differs from a rock; what constitutes a mineral vein and how it is formed, and what part water plays in the formation of minerals. A similar series, in course of preparation, has for its purpose the demonstration of the grouping of particles of matter to form crystals. Both of these exhibits are treated in a popular way, calculated to appeal to the average visitor. During the year, the Department has contributed two illus- trated lectures to the course prepared under the auspices of the Yonkers Board of Education. These were Saabs delivered by the Curator, the subjects being “The Water in the Atmosphere’ and “Terrestrial Water and Its Work in Forming and Transforming Earth Matter.” The Department has recently been able to add to its nega- tives available for lantern slides a series showing the methods of polishing diamonds. * Under the Department of Mineralogy (see also pages 212 to 214). Minerals and Gems 71 The research laboratory is now equipped with a Gold- schmidt Two-circle Goniometer for measuring crystal angles, and the initial work with this instrument has neck and already demonstrated that there is a considerable ublication : if amount of material in the Bement Collection which, subjected to crystallographic study, will yield new forms. Work on the list of new crystal forms of minerals has been completed. In addition, the Curator has published during the year “A Model for Demonstrating Crystal Structure,” Ameri- can Journal of Science, XLIX, pages 259-264, and “The Per- centage of Accuracy in Cutting Semi-Precious Stones,” The Jewelers’ Circular, February 4, 1920. The year has been a notable one with regard to the number and value of the specimens which have been added to the col- lections through gifts. From a point of view of scientific interest, by far the most important of these gifts consists of a suite of 68 mounts, received through Dr. George F. Kunz from Professor Alfred Lacroix, of the Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris. These are practically all type specimens of the material described by Professor Lacroix in his monumental work on the Mineralogy of France and Her Colonies, and they include 18 species and varieties hitherto unrepresented in our collections. The Department has also acquired, through the gifts of Mr. Harry F. Guggenheim and Mr. H. C. Bellinger, excellent series of Chilean and Bolivian minerals, including tin and tungsten ore minerals from Cara- coles, Bolivia, and Rancagua, Chile; also a beautiful and highly interesting series of 25 specimens of the sulphate min- erals of Chuquicamata, Chile. Many of these latter are beau- tifully crystallized. Dr. Henry Buttgenbach, of Brussels, has presented a specimen of the new lead-manganese oxide Cesaro- lite from Tunis, which was discovered by him and named after Professor G. Cesaro, of Liége, Belgium. Mr. C. J. Osman has donated a finely crystallized specimen of the rare mineral Inoyite from Hillsborough, New Brunswick, a new locality for this species, which was hitherto unrepresented in the col- lections. The New York Mineralogical Club has presented a Accessions 72 Report of the President large and handsome crystal of Hornblende from Hardyston- ville, N. J. Among the notable additions to the Gem Collection should be mentioned a ball, ten centimeters in diameter, carved from a flawless rock crystal, and mounted on a bronze elephant of Hindoo workmanship, the gift of Messrs. Sydney and Victor D. Bevin. Through the gift of Mr. M. L. Morgenthau, this collection has also acquired a magnificent light blue Japanese Topaz, cut egg-shaped and covered with facets, weighing 1,463 carats. This is the largest cut topaz in our collection. A fine specimen of fire opal replacing wood, from Humboldt County, Nevada, was given by Mrs. W. H. Bliss; and a large and handsome example of Mediterranean coral surmounted by a figure carved from calcareous lava was presented by Com- mendatore Bartolomeo Mazza, through Dr. George F. Kunz. Field Work for Invertebrates 73 EXISTING INVERTEBRATES * Henry Epwarp Crampton, Curator In the latter part of May, Curator Crampton left for a trip of several months through the South Seas and the Far East. Letters and reports recently received indicate and that by November he had successfully completed the first stages of his journey. Two months were spent in Guam and Saipan, of the Mariana Island Group, where Professor Crampton made general collections of inverte- brates and continued his studies on the land mollusks of the genus Partula, which he has pursued in the Society Islands for several years past. He next stopped at Manila, and after two weeks in Luzon, proceeded to Hongkong and Canton, China. Here he delivered a series of lectures at the Canton Christian College. Early in October he arrived at Bangkok, Siam, whence he journeyed five hundred miles northward to Chieng-mai, the principal city of northern Siam. Here he was entertained by the Viceroy of that region, Prince Bovaradej, and had excellent opportunities to study the highly developed Lao people. Several days were spent in collecting in the elevated forests of the neighboring mountains, and early in November he was about to start for the Malay Peninsula and Java. Thence he planned to return home by way of Australia and the Samoan Islands, reaching New York about the middle of February. Professor Crampton writes: “The contacts that have been established with many men, and several institutions, out here, will prove valuable for the enrichment of our departmental series. The authorities have been most helpful in all places. Various lots of material have been shipped back from time tq time, including the Mariana Islands collections, which were the most complete.” One shipment of these collections has been received. * Under the Department of Invertebrate Zodlogy (see also pages 215 to 218). 74 : Report of the President During the summer, Dr. Lutz continued his important ento- mological survey of the region west of the one hundredth meridian, chiefly in the Red Desert and Jackson Hole regions of Wyoming. Collections were also made in Colorado, Idaho, Utah and Indiana, practically completing the survey as planned for Colorado and its immediate borders. The many specimens resulting from the trip have been mounted and for the most part identified, while reports on the insects of the Southern Rockies are in course of preparation. Mr. Watson’s field work in Jamaica, mentioned in last year’s report, was com- pleted as planned, and the liberality of Mr. B. Preston Clark will make it possible to continue this phase of the West Indian work in Haiti, possibly during the winter of 1921-1922. Mr. Miner’s field work during the year has been confined to local collecting, especially in Southern New Jersey, where, with the cooperation of Mr. Frank J. Myers, studies are being made of rotifers for the proposed Rotifer Group. The new Bryozoa Group, which was practically completed during 1919, was installed early in the year and placed on exhibition the latter part of February. This ex- otal hibit, prepared by Messrs. Herman O. Mueller, Show Shimotori and Chris E. Olsen, under Mr. Miner’s direction, represents two square inches of sea bottom, magnified twenty-five diameters, or more than 15,000 times. It depicts the rich abundance and diversity of the minute animals and plants of the sea bottom. An exhibit was also installed illustrating the distribution and variation of the land mollusk Partula, as exemplified in the Pacific island, Tahiti, of the Society Group. The mollusks of this genus are abundant in the numerous valleys of the Island, where, through isolation, varieties peculiar to certain areas have been evolved. The exhibit consists of a large relief map of Tahiti, with mollusk specimens representing the range of variation, displayed in their appropriate valleys. Two stages in the subsidence of volcanic islands and the evolution of the coral atoll, according to Darwin, are also illustrated by this relief map, in connection with a second, modeled to show the islands of Raiatea and Tahaa, also of the Society Group. The (AMMINOVI, ATHDIF{T WOLLOT-VAG 40 SHHONT OM], SMOHS HOIH AA ‘dNOuy) VOZOANG AO TIVLEG AVOTOOZ ALVAUFALUAANI AO LNAWLYVdaG Educational Use of Darwin Hall 75 exhibit is based on the researches of Professor Crampton in the South Pacific Islands, and was installed under his direction. Considerable progress has been made on the new Sound Bot- tom Group, which will show the crustacea of Vineyard Sound, at Gay Head, Massachusetts. Work on the proposed Rotifer Group, which will represent, highly magnified, the interesting “wheel-animalcules” of fresh water, has progressed satisfac- torily. This work is being carried out by Mr. Miner, with the cooperation of Mr. Frank J. Myers, who has placed his detailed and expert studies on rotifers at the service of the Museum, and has freely and materially assisted in many other ways toward the success of the group. Two beautiful models of highly magnified radiolarians have been executed in glass by Mr. Herman Mueller and added to the protozoan series. Sev- eral other individual items are in progress. The remodeling of the museum cases has gone forward, ten being completed, and it is planned to include the rest of this work in a compre- hensive scheme embracing the entire east end of the Hall. During the year 1920, there has been a striking increase in the use of the Darwin Hall by schools and higher educational institutions of New York and its vicinity. A Educational otal of 17,622 pupils studied the exhibits in this Work in the hall, under the direction of their teachers, in 519 classes from 253 institutions. Of these, 182 are public institutions, 51 private, 14 parochial, and 6 are colleges; 151 are located in New York, and 102 are out of town. Many of the New York schools have included the study of the Darwin Hall exhibits in their regular curriculum. Very satisfactory progress has been made on the study col- lections of invertebrates. Dr. Van Name has devoted several months to the identification and rearrangement st of the Echinoderm collections, which have = elma greatly increased during recent years. This im- portant work has been done with great care and faithfulness. The Echinoidea have been completed, and good progress has been made with the Asteroidea. Mr. Frank J. Myers has liberally contributed his expert work to the rotifer 76 Report of the President collections, which now number about four hundred species of excellently mounted material. Through his generosity in adding to the collection, he is rapidly making it one of the most impor- tant in the country. Mr. Myers has also presented to the Department a complete Stephenson binocular microscope outfit, especially adapted for this work, and a slide cabinet for rotifers, of the most recent make. Mr. Arthur P. Jacot continued his work on the catalogue of the mollusk collections until he left for China in August. Dur- ing the two years that Mr. Jacot was with us, he catalogued more than 20,000 sets of shells, entailing the writing of 20,000 special catalogue cards, the examination and handling of the shells concerned, and the rearrangement of the collection both in the exhibition cases and in the study collection drawers. In addition to this work, a separate record was made for each item in our refer- ence catalogue, which indexes the entire series, and has in- volved the writing of 8,000 cards over and above those in the main series. As the result of his work we may now consider the Marine Gastropod collection completely catalogued. This achievement is especially noteworthy as the part known as the Steward Collection, which has never before been exhibited, proved much larger than was expected and took the greater part of Mr. Jacot’s time during the elapsed portion of the present year. The collection has been consulted by a number of scientists during the past year, and our attention has been called repeat- edly to the value of certain parts of our series. The Lamellibranchs and the Land Shells remain to be done, and a revision of the synonymy on cross reference cards is necessary. The Mollusk Collections The study collection of insects has been greatly improved during the past year by the completion of the task of assem- bling the type specimens in special fire-proof and ee pest-proof cases. The work of arranging the Identification Collection is progressing satisfac- torily. The Identification Collection is limited to a few speci- Publications on Invertebrates a7 mens of each species, so that a student wishing to identify an unknown insect may glance quickly over many already named species. It also becomes, by means of cross-reference labels, an index to the collections as a whole. During the past sum- mer, Messrs. Watson, Coleman and Operti collected material, accessories and sketches for a number of habitat groups of local butterflies. There are special difficulties in the way of successful insect habitat groups, but we believe that these dif- ficulties can be overcome, and if so the groups will be both interesting and instructive. Professor Crampton has continued his researches for the distribution and variation of Partula. Mr. Miner has made progress with his “Synonymy of American Myri- aon apods,” assisted by Miss Anita Ohrtmann. Dr. Van Name has continued his investigations on the “Ascidians of the West Indian Region,” the results of which are now in press. The following papers, published in the Bulletin during 1920, indicate the scope of scientific re- search in the Department. “Parasitic Copepods from the Congo Basin,’ by Charles Branch Wilson; “Isopods Collected by the American Museum Congo Expedition,’ by Willard G.

Accessions Department Staff 79 Much to the regret of the department, Mr. Arthur Jacot has severed his connection with the Museum to accept a post at the Shantung University in China. Mr. Show = Sees Shimotori is on an extended leave of absence in in Staff i Japan; Mr. Arnold Olsen has been acting as assistant modeler; and though not on the regular staff, Mr. Herbert F. Schwarz, has, throughout the year, given very freely of his time to the Section of Insects, as a volunteer assistant in the preparation of a paper on bees, with especial reference to those in the Colorado region. 80 Report of the President RECENT AND EXTINCT FISHES * BasHForD Dean, Honorary Curator Joun T. NicHots, Associate Curator of Recent Fishes, in Charge In July and August, Mr. J. C. Bell of the Department of Preparation spent several weeks at Morehead City, North Caro- lina, close to Cape Lookout, obtaining plaster Care and molds of sharks and rays for exhibition. The Leccerment Ocean Leather Company courteously furnished Collections him with facilities and material for this work. Dr. Russell J. Coles, who was fishing at Cape Lookout, also contributed material, and the opportunity was an exceptional one for securing these great fishes for the Museum. Dr. Coles, a Member of the Museum, was largely instrumental in arranging for Mr. Bell’s trip, which proved very successful. It will now be possible to place on exhibition a large Tiger Shark, finer than anything of the sort now in the Museum. Besides exhibition material, skeletons, a series of shark jaws for purposes of study, and interesting observations, notably on stomach contents, were obtained. This is the most important accession of exhibition material during the year. Limited space has left little room for placing more fishes on view ; several desirable specimens are now held in reserve until there be opportunity to show them to advantage, and attention has been given mainly to the study collections. An important collection of marine fishes, obtained in Peru by Dr. R. C. Murphy, has been received; Dr. Barton W. Ever- mann of the San Francisco Museum secured some material for this Museum in the Honolulu market; Mr. Harry R. Caldwell is collecting fresh-water fishes in China. The fresh waters of China contain a large variety of interesting fishes, but collections of them are so small and scattered that their sys- tematic study is extremely difficult. It is hoped that a suffi- * Under the Department of Ichthyology (see also pages 218 to 219). Research on Fishes 81 ciently large and comprehensive collection will be obtained incident to general zodlogical work in Asia which Mr. Andrews has in view, to make possible a more satisfactory treatment of the subject; Mr. Clifford Pope, who will accompany the pro- posed Asiatic Expedition, will pay especial attention to fresh- water fishes. A new ventilating apparatus has been installed in the base- ment store-room for study collections, which has greatly im- proved working conditions there. The laboratory assistant (Mr. Fred Kessler), in addition to routine work necessary for care of the increasing material, and preparation of study skeletons, has been occupied in cleaning shark jaws brought back by Mr. Bell, and in working up fossil material from Cuba collected by Mr. Barnum Brown which Dr. Gregory has agreed to examine. , «- Work on the “Bibliography of Fishes,’ which has so long occupied an extensive part of the interest of this department, has been continued throughout the year under the item general supervision of Dr. Bashford Dean. The Addendum, consisting of titles not included in the previous volumes by reason of the great amplification and extension of the scope of this work, and including about forty- five hundred additional titles, is now in press. The section relating to Pre-Linnzan works, compiled and edited by Dr. E. W. Gudger, including all the literature con- cerning fishes from the earliest times to the publication of the “Systema Natura” of Linnzus in 1758, is likewise in press. This will be of especial interest to students of the origin and development of our modern conceptions of the science of ich- thyology. About twenty-three hundred titles are included, with an accurate compilation of their various editions. The final preparation of the Subject Catalogue, in prepara- tion by Mr. Arthur W. Henn, is necessarily dependent on the completion of the above parts. A number of forms have been - set up in order to determine the typographical composition of this part, and to solve the necessary mechanical details. Sec- tions relating to paleontology and fauna, comprising a strati- graphical and geographical arrangement of the fauna of the 82 Report of the President world, and occupying the largest single portions of this sec- tion, are ready for the press. Progress has been made in revisional work on the sub- family of marine fishes known as Crevallies, including publi- cation of the following papers by J. T. Nichols: “Hynnis and Alectis in the American Museum of Natural History,” and “A Key to the Species of Trachurus’ (in the Museum Bulle- tin) ; “On the Genus Citula,’ “Caranx bartholomaei and ruber, compared,’ “Caranx crysos, etc.,’ “On the range and geo- graphic variation of Caranx Mppos’ and “The Phylogeny of Carangin Fishes’ (in Copeia); “Caranx guara,’ figured, in Forest and Stream. Two papers have been published de- scribing new species and a new genus in the collection of Catfishes loaned by the Museu Paulista, Sao Paulo, Brazil. These papers are in English and in Portuguese. Collections from Bermuda and Turk’s Islands, received in 1919 from Mr. L. L. Mowbray, have been studied. The former has been pub- lished on, and a paper on the latter in the Museum Bulletin is now in press. A faunal analysis of Dr. Murphy’s Peruvian material is under way. Mr. Van Campen Heilner of Spring Lake, New Jersey, an ardent rod and reel fisherman, spent a month at the Museum compiling a list of record size fishes which was published (Field and Stream) in 1920. This is merely a beginning in the accumulation of data of much interest to sportsmen, and it is hoped to continue the work in the future. As usual, some attention has been given to the study of the local Ichthyfauna. The Department from time to time has been in touch with various persons interested in it, more par- ticularly with Mr. Roy Latham of Orient, Long Island, who each year submits a summary of his observations for re- vision before publishing them, and presents his rarer speci- mens to the Museum. The Associate Curator made a trip on the Aquarium’s collecting boat in July and has recently visited the Aquarium to study the living fishes there and cor- relate such observations with those on Museum material. Popular articles on local fishes have been published as follows: “An Afternoon on the Sea Horse,” “True or Long-finned Alba- core,’ and “Finding Fishes on the Beach” (Forest and Publications on Fishes 83 Stream). Among other publications by members of the depart- ment staff are “The Puffer Fishes and Some Interesting Uses of Their Skins” (Bull. N. Y. Zool. Soc.), and “A Third Cap- ture on the Florida Coast of the Whale Shark, Rhineodon typus”’ (Science), by E. W. Gudger. 84 Report of the President EXISTING REPTILES AND AMPHIBIANS * G. K. Nosie, Assistant Curator, in Charge The study collections have grown rapidly during the year, and, while the increase has fallen a little short of the excellent record made during the preceding year, 3,571 specimens were received and catalogued. In addition, a collection of nearly a thousand speci- mens has arrived too late to be accessioned and included in the total number. Only a very small part of this material has come to the Museum through purchase, 1,309 specimens having been received as gifts. These specimens came from China, Australia, Spanish Guinea, Cuba, Jamaica, Brazil, and various parts of the United States, special effort being made to secure neotropical material. In some cases a small amount of money was advanced to meet the expenses of the collectors. Effort has been made to bring the Department into closer relations with other institutions through exchange of material, and thus 1,943 specimens have been received. Several Museums in South America, the Institute of Comparative Anatomy at Genoa, the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Cambridge, the University of Colorado, and Princeton Univer- sity have been the most generous contributors. More than a thousand specimens have been loaned the Department for study and identification, many of which it is hoped will be retained permanently. These specimens have been sent through the courtesy of several institutions, chiefly the United States National Museum, the Museum of Comparative Zoology and the Brooklyn Museum. Return courtesies in the form of loans have been extended to the two former institutions and loans have been made to the Carnegie Institution of Washing- ton and Oberlin College. No extensive field work was undertaken during the year, Growth of Collections * Under the Department of Herpetology (see also pages 219 to 221). Osteological Collections 85 save that of Mr. Paul Ruthling in Mexico, which was con- tinued until October. Mr. Elwood Johnson spent rele several months on the Atrato River drainage in Colombia and devoted all of his time to collecting reptiles and amphibians. Local field work was continued throughout the summer by various members of the Depart- ment. A permanent file for local field observations has been established, which will serve as a depository for field notes made not only by the members of the Department but also by other observers. A study of the bony and cartilaginous structures of reptiles and amphibians presents many difficulties, especially because of the small size and fragile nature of the mate- Osteological ia], Rapid strides have been made during the Collections é 2 : : : year in perfecting a technique by which speci- mens of any size may be depigmented, decolorized, and cleared by a single process. Differential stains have been used with success to bring out more clearly the bony structures. This clearing method as now perfected is so much simpler, quicker and more exact than the various skeletonizing methods that there can be no doubt as to its future usefulness. During the year, one member of the Department has cleared without serious interruption to his other work forty-four salamanders, three frogs, and fifty-seven lizards. The total expense of clearing these hundred and four specimens did not exceed ten dollars, which is about half the price demanded by most tech- nicians for skeletonizing a single specimen: The great advan- tage of the clearing over the dissection method is the absolute freedom from loss, breakage, and disarticulation of parts. Four skeletons were prepared by the ordinary methods. These will probably be used for exhibition. A new tray system for the storage of study material was inaugurated towards the close of last year, and the entire amphibian collection is now installed in trays, Sat oe which facilitate rapid handling. The entire rep- tile collection has been checked over during the year and all the identified material on the storage shelves labeled. 86 Report of the President The card catalogue of species has been completed for the lizards and snakes, but the collection of amphibians, number- ing 13,400 specimens, still remains to be thus recorded, though duly entered in the current catalogue. There still remain to be transferred to the new books the data for the 18,108 cata- logued reptiles in the Museum. The Bull Frog Group has been repaired, and several of the other groups renovated. A gigantic specimen of the Alligator Snapper has been prepared and very soon will be installed in one of the floor cases. The entire synoptic series has been rearranged and temporary labels writ- ten for all the specimens. A number of casts were made for use in exchanges with other institutions. Exhibition The work of Mr. C. L. Camp on the “Myology and Oste- ology of the Lacertilia” was continued throughout the year and nearly brought to completion. It will be illus- Recren ore trated by forty-eight plates of Mr. Camp’s more important dissections. The work of Mr. K. P. Schmidt was unfortunately brought to an early conclusion in July, when he left the Museum on an extended leave of absence. The first report on the results of his work in Porto Rico appeared in September (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, XXVIII, pp. 167-200, figs. 1-9). This paper is but an abstract of a more extensive account which Mr. Schmidt has in hand. Three brief papers by Mr. Schmidt (Proceedings of the Linnaean Society of New York, XXXVIII, pp. 1-8) on West Indian herpetology have appeared, giving descriptions of several important new species. Two other short papers were published in Copeia (No. 82, pp. 41-42; No. 86, pp. 84-85). These latter papers deal with the distribution of Bufo fowlert and the common name of Amphiuma, respec- tively. Another paper by Mr. Schmidt, entitled ‘Notes on the Herpetology of Santo Domingo,” is in press and will be pub- lished soon in the Bulletin. The Assistant Curator published during the year a paper on some new species of frogs from Colombia (Bulletin, XLII, Pp. 441-446), including one very interesting new genus. Two Publications on Reptiles and Amphibians 87 short papers by him have appeared in Copeia (No. 79, pp. 16-18; No. 88, pp. 98-100). The first of these papers is a note on Babina, the dagger-frog, and the second is on the breeding of the Milk Snake. A fourth paper, on “The Anterior Cranial Elements of Gdipus and Certain Other Salamanders,” is in press and will appear very soon in the Bulletin. Another paper, on “Some New Lizards from Northwestern Peru,” has been submitted to the Editor of the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences for publication. A report on the am- phibians and reptiles from southern Peru, published jointly with Dr. Thomas Barbour, appeared towards the close of the year. A paper to be published jointly with Dr. Gregory has been completed. It deals with the homologies of the alisphe- noid bone throughout the vertebrate series. Finally, a rather extensive paper on the osteology and phylogeny of four genera of lizards—one new to science—is nearly complete and will probably be published in the Bulletin. The two papers on Congo herpetology, of approximately 400 typewritten pages each, mentioned in last year’s report as ready for publication, were placed in the hands of the com- mittee in charge of the Congo reports. 88 Report of the President BIRDS * Frank M. CHAPMAN, Curator The year 1920 has been marked by great progress and even greater promise in the work of the Department of Birds. Both in the field and in the study, the members of.our staff have labored with enthusiasm and efficiency, and, thanks to the codp- eration of patrons of the Museum, we have been able to inau- gurate plans for exploration and research of far-reaching importance. On September 13, Mr. Rollo H. Beck, accompanied by Mr. EK. H. Quayle, as assistant, sailed from San Francisco for Tahiti to begin a five years’ exploration of the Whitney islands of Polynesia. eee This is the most important expedition which the Department has ever sent into the field. Up to the present time no intensive collecting of birds has been done in the smaller islands of the Pacific, and Mr. Beck’s well- known qualifications as a collector of insular and marine forms especially fit him for this difficult task. Thanks to the cordial cooperation of the French Government, Mr. Beck has been accorded the privilege of pursuing his investigations, and per- mission to collect specimens; and we anticipate the receipt of early shipments from him. This expedition was made possible through the generosity of Mr. Harry Payne Whitney. The Museum’s biological survey of the Andes has been con- tinued by Mr. Harold E. Anthony, representing the Depart- ment of Mammals, and Mr. George K. Cherrie, representing the Department of Birds. Messrs. Anthony and Cherrie left New York City the latter part of June for southern Ecuador. They have made their base at Portovelo, in the Province of Loja, at the Expedition to Ecuador * Under the Department of Ornithology (see also pages 221 to 223). Additions to the Bird Collections 89 headquarters of the South American Development Company, where their work has been materially advanced by the coopera- tion of this company. From Portovelo they have explored the country to the west, north, south, and east, and have not only secured large collections, but much valuable information con- cerning the character of the country and the southward limits of the Humid Zone in southwestern Ecuador. In October, Mr. Anthony reported that 1,200 birds and 600 mammals had already been secured, and if they meet with equal success during the remaining four months of their stay, they will have obtained one of the largest collections ever made in Tropical America in the same length of time. Mr. Harry Watkins has continued to represent the Museum in Peru. His collections have been made on the eastern slope of the Andes, in the Perené region, and in west- ern Peru from Lima to the Chilean boundary. Our collections from western Peru are now essentially complete and will permit us to define the life-zones of that region. Peruvian Expedition While studying the aquatic bird-life of the tableland in Peru and Bolivia, Lord William Percy, field representative of the William Museum, made for us a representative collection Percy at Guaqui in Bolivia, a place from which here- Expedition = tofore we had received no specimens. In addition to the specimens received from our field expedi- tions, our collections have been greatly enriched through dona- tions and exchanges from various sources. Of Additions these by far the most important is a gift from te: Mr. Frederick F. Brewster of 3,378 specimens collected by Mr. Rollo H. Beck in South America and the West Indies, the greater part of which represent species new to our collection. This is the most valuable dona- tion the Department of Birds has ever received. The completion of our Bulletin on the Distribution of Bird- Life in Colombia enables us to offer for exchange the duplicate material contained in that collection, and in return for this go Report of the President material we have received most desirable accessions from other museums, as noted in detail below. Special mention should be made of a collection of 322 authentically identified Australian birds, received in exchange from Mr. Edwin E. Ashby, “Wittunga,” Blackwood, South Australia. All specimens received during the year have been entered in our catalogues and given their proper serial number in the collection of birds, which now approaches 200,000 specimens. The cataloguing of nests and eggs has also been completed. Cataloguing The most important work of the department, and that to which all the members of the staff have devoted by far the greater part of their time during the year, is Rearrange- the complete rearrangement of our collection, and ment of : p Cs i Collections the incorporation in it of the thousands of speci- mens received in recent years, which, pending their study, have been maintained as separate collections. This work has necessitated the reidentification of great numbers of species and has included the separation of our collection into the first and second series. The former will contain a pair of every species represented in the collection, and all the types; the latter will contain the series illustrating variations in plu- mage due to age, sex, season, and locality. The first series will be used for ready reference; the second for detailed study. It is hoped that this task will be completed during the spring of 1921, when the working value of our collection will have been greatly augmented. The demands made upon our time by the rearrangement of our collections has left comparatively little opportunity for research work; nevertheless, the Curator has completed his Report on the Bird-Life of The Urubamba Valley, which, when printed, will form a paper of approximately 150 pages, and has also described a number of new species of birds. Mr. Miller has utilized specimens received in the flesh from Research Publications on Birds QI the New York Zodlogical Society and elsewhere, to continue his study of the pterylosis of the bird’s wing, and has also worked upon the classification of the Woodpeckers and their allies. Mr. Chapin has begun his monographic treatment of the birds of Central Africa; and, in cooperation with Mr. Miller, Mr. Griscom has made considerable progress in his studies of the birds of Nicaragua. Mrs. Reichenberger, having completed her preliminary iden- tification of our Ecuador collections, is now engaged on a revi- sion of the identifications of the Roosevelt collection. Ten papers by members of our scientific staff (based on the study of Museum material) have been published outside of the Museum. It is to be regretted that the congestion in our printing office prohibited their publication by the Museum. Six papers were presented by members of the scientific staff before the Annual Congress of the American Ornithologists’ Union, held at the United States National Museum in Wash- ington, November 8-11, 1920. The cordial cooperation which exists between this depart- ment and our colleagues in various parts of the world, makes our respective collections accessible to us all. As occasion arose during the year we borrowed specimens from our fellow-workers, and it has been our privi- lege to comply with requests for the loan of material from museums and private individuals both in this country and in Europe. In addition to the material which we have sent to our col- leagues, we have filled the wants of numerous artists who come to the Museum to secure models for their work. Loans Year by year, as the contact of this department with the public becomes closer, the demands upon us for information and assistance have greatly increased. These are made by correspondents and visitors, and include not only requests for information in regard to almost every phase of bird-study, but for technical advice con- cerning the enforcement of game laws and the laws governing the importation of foreign species. Office Routine Q2 Report of the President Our card catalogue of reference to the description of new species, and to the literature of ornithology, has been kept up to date by Mrs. Fraser, and it forms an indispensable part of our department equipment. A number of species received in the flesh from the New York Zoological Society, which were not represented in our exhibition collections, have been mounted for dis- play. Lack of space has made it inadvisable to prepare new collections for our exhibition halls. Exhibition Explorations for Mammals 93 MAMMALS * J. A. ALLEN, Curator The additions number 1,720 specimens, of which 1,344 were obtained by Museum expeditions, 106 by purchase, 4 by ex- change, and 204 by gift. The specimens acquired through expeditions include 1,216 from Northern China and Mongolia, collected by Associate Curator Andrews, leader of the Museum’s Second Asiatic Expedition, in 1918 and 1919. They reached the Museum in March, 1920, in perfect condition. This is by far the largest and most valuable collec- tion of mammals the Museum has ever received from Asia, and includes not only a large representation of the smaller species of the region traversed, but also a fine series of the large game animals, including group material for exhibition of several species nearing extinction, as the argali sheep and the wapiti, and also roebuck, goral, and antelope. The Museum has also received its first collection of mammals from Jamaica, numbering about 600, collected by Associate Curator Anthony. A further important accession has been received from British Guiana, through cooperation with the New York Zoological Society under the supervision of Mr. C. William Beebe, direc- tor of the Society’s British Guiana Tropical Research Station. Many valuable specimens have been received in the flesh from the New York Zoological Society, and the Department of Parks. Accessions Mr. Roy Chapman Andrews, Associate Curator of Mam- mals of the Eastern Hemisphere, returned early in the year from his eminently successful researches in China and Mongolia in 1918 and 1919, and has since been occupied mainly in organizing the Museum’s Third Asiatic Zodlogical Expedition, which is ex- pected to take the field early in 1921 and extend over a period of five years. Its activities will embrace a wide field of re- Field Work * Under the Department of Mammalogy (see also pages 223 to 224). 94 Report of the President search, including geological, archzological and anthropological as well as zoological explorations, and will be organized with expert investigators in each of these fields. Its financial sup- port seems already guaranteed through the cooperation of the American Asiatic Association and its magazine Asia, and other liberal friends of the Museum. In November, 1919, Mr. H. E. Anthony, Associate Curator of Mammals of the Western Hemisphere, went to Jamaica for four months to investigate the cave fauna of this island. He was accompanied by Mr. Charles Falkenbach, of the Depart- ment of Palzontology, as an assistant, and the expedition was financed jointly by the two Departments thus represented. The main purpose was the exploration of the caves of the island for vertebrate fossils, for comparison with similar mate- rial already secured from the caves of Porto Rico and Cuba. Some seventy caves were explored, and a large amount of fossil material was obtained, most of it in the form of limestone breccia. The most conspicuous element of this material con- sists of the remains of a large hystricomorph rodent, and a smaller rodent allied to the species of Geocapromys still living on the island. In addition to fossil material, some 600 bats were collected, and nine specimens of the nearly extinct Geoca- promys, thus greatly increasing our collection of the existing West Indian mammal fauna. In June, Mr. Anthony, in company with Mr. George K. Cherrie, of the Department of Ornithology, left New York on an expedition to Ecuador and adjoining parts of South America, to collect mammals and birds. Frequent letters from Mr. Anthony indicate that their work has been highly successful, but no material has yet been transmitted to the Museum. As both are experts of long experience in tropical field work, the ultimate results must prove of great scientific value to the Museum. The work will be continued through the early months of 1921. Mr. Anthony will thus acquire first- hand knowledge of the varied ecological conditions of the country that will be of immense value to him in working out the interrelationships of the mammal forms of different areas. OTAAOLNOd AUVAN' OGNId OY AHL NO NOIWIGAdXyY NVINOdVNOY AHL 4O dWV~) AVOTOHLINYO GNV ADOIVNWNVN AO SINANLYVdAG Study Collections of Mammals 95 Great advance has been made during the year in the rear- rangement of the research collection of mammals, which was resumed by Associate Curator Anthony on his ay : return to the Museum from his expedition to ollection : : : Jamaica, and has since been carried on under the direction of Assistant Curator Lang, with the aid of Messrs. George G. Goodwin and T. D. Carter, who joined the Department staff early in the year. The former insecure and inconvenient storage cases in Room 15 were replaced during the summer by thirty-five new metal cases of the standard pattern, to which the Rodents, Bats, and other small mammal skins have been transferred and arranged with their skulls, and the trays and cases duly labeled. The current accessions have been catalogued and installed in their proper storage relations. The whole collec- tion has been examined for insect pests and due precautions taken to guard against their intrusion. The rearrangement and labeling of the cases in the osteological room have also been nearly completed, so that the research collection as a whole is in better condition than ever before, as regards both accessibil- ity and safety. The African mammals are still kept separate from the general collection, for convenience of access while under investigation, and are under the special superintendence of Assistant Curator Lang. Mr. Anthony, on returning from Jamaica, prepared a pre- liminary report on the fossil mammal remains secured by him in that island, describing four new genera and five new species of hystricomorph rodents, all very distinct from any previously known West Indian forms. A detailed report will be published later when the material has been fully worked out for study. Several skeletons of African mammals of unusual rarity and interest have been mounted and placed on exhibition. These oa include exceptionally fine skeletons of Okapi and ee White Rhinoceros, the Aardvark and Giant Pan- ollection ; , ; golin, and also of a small Flying-squirrel and the “Hero Shrew,” unique among mammals for its enormously thickened vertebral column. The mounting was skilfully done 96 Report of the President by Mr. F. Schneider, under the supervision of Mr. Lang, from his field studies and photographs of the animals living or in the flesh while leader of the American Museum Congo Expe- dition. A large male Sea Elephant has been mounted, thus com- pleting the group of three adults and three young planned for the Hall of Ocean Life. The group, provisionally installed on the second floor, makes a very impressive appearance. A fine group of Howling Monkeys has been added to the series of Primates, small groups of Wildcats and Coyotes added to the North American Mammals, and a number of representative mammals have been mounted for various systematic exhibits, among them a Giant Armadillo and a Tasmanian Wolf. The Curator has devoted his time almost exclusively to the investigation of the Primates secured by the Congo Expedition of the American Museum, which comprise more Reccarec and than 600 specimens of this order. The report on them is now nearing completion and will be richly illustrated with line drawings and photographs, in coop- eration with Mr. Lang. A card index of the literature of African mammals, com- prising some 20,000 cards, has been prepared under Mr. Lang’s direction, and an additional set of over 5,000 locality cards, giving the latitude and longitude of points where collections have been made by explorers and collectors, which will be of great use in determining type localities and distribution of forms, information of great utility in other fields as well as in mammalogy. The assistance of Miss R. D. Evans has rendered possible much of this exacting work on African bibli- ography and zodgeography. While much of Mr. Lang’s time has been devoted to the preparation of the reports on mam- mals, he has also contributed field notes to the various collabo- rators in other fields for incorporation in their respective monographs. The appointment of Dr. J. Bequaert, as Research Assistant in Congo Zoology, has proved of great assistance in the preparation of the Congo reports, owing to his long field experience in Africa as an explorer and collector. The Okapi Monograph, by Dr. H. von W. Schulte, with many anatomical Publications on Mammals 97 drawings by Mrs. H. Ziska, is about half completed. Mrs. Ziska has also made excellent progress with the line illustra- tions for the Report on the African Sciuride and Anomalu- ride. The technical publications of the year, contrary to expecta- tions at the close of last year, have been few and brief, the publication of a volume on the mammals of the Congo expedi- tion having been unexpectedly delayed. Several popular papers on the field work of the Museum have been published by Asso- ciate Curators Andrews and Anthony and Assistant Curator Lang, mostly in the Museum’s journal Natural History, and several technical notes and papers by the Curator and Mr. Anthony have been issued during the year. 98 Report of the President EXTINCT VERTEBRATES * Henry FairFieEL>D Oszorn, Honorary Curator W. D. MatrHew, Curator Through reductions in staff due to resignations and other causes, the total working force of the department was cut down during the past year from twenty-one to Changes fifteen—a loss of over one-fourth. Mr. Adam in Staff : Hermann, head preparator, was retired after a service of nearly thirty years, and the preparation staff was further reduced by three other members resigned or dropped. Associate Curator Barnum Brown was absent during practi- cally the entire year, and not technically on the Museum roll. Mr. A. E. Anderson was unable on account of illness to give more than a few days to the photographic work during the year. These reductions are necessarily reflected in a smaller total of work accomplished, in spite of improvement in indi- vidual output. Work was continued during the season at the great Agate Fossil Quarry. An extensive new cut was made at the north- eastern end of the quarry, and carefully pro- So spected. A large amount of skeleton material of the dwarf rhinoceros Diceratherium and a number of skeletons of the great Clawed Ungulate Moropus were secured, but none of the hoped-for remains of the Giant Pig Dinohyus. The best specimen is a Moropus skeleton materially larger than any hitherto found. Altogether there were brought back to the Museum thirteen boxes of a total weight of 4,510 pounds. * Under the Department of Vertebrate Paleontology (see also page 224). Exhibition of Extinct Vertebrates 99 Work was continued upon the carnivorous dinosaur collec- tions from Alberta, especially upon the skeleton of the gigantic Gorgosaurus mounted in a running pose, and Preparation now nearly ready for exhibition. This skeleton Exhibition 18 2 Panel mount, but set up in sections instead of a single piece. It will be temporarily installed in the fossil mammal hall, as space is not now available with the Cretaceous Dinosaur exhibits where it naturally belongs. Three fine skulls of carnivorous dinosaurs from Alberta were completed and placed on exhibition, and considerable progress was made in the preparation of the slender-limbed Ostrich Dinosaurs and their allies, a rare and little known group of which a number of partial skeletons remain to be prepared, in addition to the complete skeleton on exhibition. Two partial skeletons of a primitive type of Duck-billed Dinosaur were finished up and placed on exhibition. A model of the great Amphibious Dinosaur Camarasaurus, completed by Erwin Christman in accord with the latest researches by Professor Osborn, Dr. Gregory and Dr. Mook on the pose and habits of these animals, was cast and placed on exhibition at the entrance to the Dinosaur hall. This model, representing a very detailed study, is believed to be the most authoritative reconstruction yet made of an amphibious dino- saur. About a third of the time of the laboratory staff was devoted to the exhibits and study collections of fossil Proboscidea. The skull of the great Long-jawed Mastodon was partly recon- structed in conformity with later comparative studies; and the palate and jaws of another species, T. campester, were very carefully and critically reconstructed and restored. A very fine and complete skull and jaws from the Lower Pliocene of Texas was placed on exhibition, and a number of changes made in the panel exhibits of fossil proboscideans. Some prog- ress was made towards the completion of the Primitive Mas- todon Skeleton (Trilophodon productus). Preparation of the large block of Diceratherium (dwarf rhinoceros) from the Agate fossil quarry has been nearly com- pleted. This block contains twenty-one skulls, and a propor- tionate number of skeleton bones (reckoning 180 bones to each 100 Report of the President skeleton, there should be 3,780 in this block), and the prepa- ration of such a multitude of fossil bones has been a slow process; but it is now well towards completion. Approximately seven months’ time of one man was expended upon preparation of an interesting collection of fossil mam- mals secured by Mr. Childs Frick from the Pliocene of Cali- fornia. This collection, somewhat unpromising at first appear- ance, is shown by careful preparation work to be of very considerable scientific importance. It represents a stage, the later Pliocene, almost unrepresented in the American Museum collections. The reconstruction of the skeleton of the gigantic Eocene bird Diatryma has been continued, a series of duplicates being cast which can be used for sale or exchange. It will shortly be ready to place on exhibition as an articulated “open-mount” skeleton. . The mural paintings in this hall present the animal life and environment in which our prehistoric ancestors lived. To the six murals previously completed, two were added AgeofMan during 1920, representing the appearance and Sneak life of the primitive Neanderthal man and of his much higher and artistic successor, the Cro- Magnon type of the Old Stone Age. The growing importance of the American Museum as a centre of international research in palzontology, is again illus- trated by the visit of Professor H. Matsumoto Research and of the University of Tokio, Japan, a distinguished ublication ) ; authority upon fossil vertebrates. Dr. Matsu- moto has spent several months upon the study of our collec- tions, especially upon the fossil mammals of the Fayim, Egypt. He has prepared an important paper upon the primi- tive Proboscidean Moeritherium and has other valuable con- tributions under way. Dr. W. K. Gregory has published: two important papers, a memoir describing the osteology of the Eocene Lemuroid Notharctus and discussing its affinities and bearing upon the problems of the evolution of the Primates; and a comparative eee Eee ge “ WYSUy “Y Sepieyo Aq ur FO ssy oy} Jo [eH ay} 10} usoqsgQ PPPYNe] AIuUsF 1OyBIND AsesoUoP JO uordo1I1C7 9y} Japuy) poqyureg SLISILUY NONDVI-0UD ADOTOLNOUVIVd ALVAIALNYA AO INAWLYVdad 0261 “wnasnpy ays tq payybiskdoy Codperation With Foreign Museums IOI study of the characters of the lachrymal bone of the face in vertebrates, especially in mammals, and its bearing upon vari- ous difficult problems in the evolution of the face from the primitive fishes of Palzozoic times to modern man. Dr. Mook has published a series of articles in the Bulletin, presenting the results of his researches upon the osteology of living and extinct Crocodilia. Professor Osborn continued actively his researches upon the Sauropod Dinosaurs, and especially upon the American Pro- boscidea. Dr. Marjorie O’Connell, as special research assistant, gave approximately three months’ time to studies upon the new and valuable collections of invertebrates secured by Mr. Barnum Brown in the Jurassic limestones of Cuba. Her report upon the collection will be completed in 1921. During the autumn Dr. Matthew visited the principal scien- tific museums of Europe, with a view to renewing old relations of interchange and cooperation which had been Exchange and largely broken off by the war, and of developing een such new relations as might be advantageous. He i oreign — : : Museums visited thirty-three museums in Sweden, Ger- many, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Bel- gium and England, and made arrangements for exchange of publications, specimens, and casts, finding everywhere a most cordial reception, very friendly attitude towards the American Museum and high appreciation of its work.

Of Mr. Erwin Christman’s time approximately one-third was given to illustrations for monographs on Sauropoda and Tita- notheriide by Professor Osborn, one-third to illustrating re- searches by Dr. Gregory and Dr. Mook, one-sixth to illustra- tions for various popular articles, and one-sixth to work in the exhibition hall and miscellaneous departmental routine. New Collections 103 EXISTING AND EXTINCT RACES OF MEN * CLARK WISSLER, Curator The Department of Anthropology has been occupied with the development of the larger plans presented in our last re- 2a port. Of these, the most important were the Exhibition exhibits for the Stone Ages of the Old World and those presenting the essential facts in the racial differen- tiation of men. Work upon these, with minor revisions and improvements in all parts of our exhibition series, it is unnec- essary to report in detail, but it may be noted that the Jesup North Pacific Hall is now complete, except for a few totem poles and the end panels of the murals. Models of three typical Mayan temples have been made, showing both exterior and interior constructions, and one of the famous serpent columns from the Temple of the Tigers has been reproduced in full and will be painted like the original. These will greatly improve the instructive aspects of the Mexican Hall. Our collections have been augmented through the generosity of many donors, a list of whom will be found under a separate head. A large collection of Palzolithic stone Boe. implements from Egypt was presented by Mr. August Heckscher. Mr. J. P. Morgan pre- sented an unusually fine collection of Tibetan costumes and sacred objects brought to this country by the Rev. H. B. Marx. By a bequest from the late Herbert M. Lloyd, we received a large archeological collection from Iroquois sites in New York State. Finally, we may note an exceedingly interesting series of Palzolithic implements from North Africa selected by the distinguished French archeologist, Henri Breuil, and purchased from the Jesup Fund. The internal work of the Museum has been largely inter- rupted by the absence of members of the staff. Since Septem- * Under the Department of Anthropology (see also pages 225 to 227). 104 Report of the President ber, the Curator has spent a large part of his time in Washing- ton, D. C., serving the National Research Council. Assistant Curator Spinden gave the latter half of the year to special service in Cuba for the Department of State, while other members of the staff have been away on extensive field trips. The chief responsibility for the work of the Department has therefore fallen to Dr. Goddard, Curator of Ethnology. Further, the resignations of Dr. Leslie Spier and Mr. B. T. B. Hyde, the only assistants upon our staff, render it increasingly difficult to keep our exhibits in order and to care for incoming collections. It is therefore apparent that the greatest present need of the Department, as a whole, is provision for the train- ing of new assistants. During the year, the work of the Archer M. Huntington Survey was confined to three enterprises; the continuation of excavations at Aztec, the discovery and prelimi- The Archer M. nary exploration of a new site on the Navajo Huntington R ; aa ie . Survey eservation, and the further application of the tree-ring method to the dating of ruins. Several important developments are to be reported in the work on the ruin at the town of Aztec. Early in the year, the original owner of the ruin, Mr. H. D. Abrams, gave a deed by which full title to the property passed to the Museum. In due time, this property with the ruin, as uncovered and partially restored by us, will be presented to the United States to become a National Monument and to be administered as a National Park. Thus we shall have provided for the future care and preservation of this remarkable ruin and realized the hopes of its former owner and our generous donor. Returning to the excavations in the ruin, we are happy to report that the rooms opened this year were rich in material, particularly in burials, one room containing seventeen in all. But by far the most distinctive discovery yet made was the uncovering of a deco- rated room. The room was deeply buried in a mass of débris and its presence was entirely unsuspected, but what in one case seemed to be a rounded heap of earth and stones, such as mark the sites of completely collapsed walls and ceilings, proved to be a buried room in perfect condition. The ceiling ‘JUSUINUOT [euOTIeN BSE PUSIUUTSAOL) S97VIS PUL] 94} 0} pojussord oq 0} pue uOJSsUUNET "P JoYyIy “JY JO Aplso1guas oy} ySnosyy posvyoing NINY OF1ZV AJOTOCOUHINV AO LNAWLUVdada Z (ie Polynesian Research 105 was unbroken and the walls were plastered white with a wain- scoting of dull red. It is by far the most beautiful room so far opened. That it was used as a sanctuary is evident from the presence of an altar. Another curious feature is that the entrance to the room had been closed, or sealed, before the ruin became uninhabited. Steps have been taken to protect this room, and later a reproduction of it will be erected in the Museum. During the summer a number of new sites were located on the Navajo Reservation and preliminary explorations begun under a special permit. The sites of some twenty small build- ings were located and several adjoining cemeteries. Excava- tions to date have revealed a great wealth of pottery and other objects. So far as the data go, this site appears to belong to a culture antecedent to that of the great community dwell- ings like the one at Aztec, and thus represents a stage in the development of Pueblo culture. The tree-ring investigations of Professor A. E. Douglass, mentioned in earlier reports, while still in the preliminary stage, have proven so promising as a means of estimating the relative ages of ruins, that a special extension of this research is contemplated. Early in the year an arrangement was entered into with the Bishop Museum in Honolulu for a joint investigation of racial problems in Hawaii. Assistant Curator Sullivan went to Honolulu last April, where he was joined by the Curator in July and August. Attention was first given to the Hawaiian problem. To date, all parts of the Islands have been visited and studies made of the most available types. Measurements, photographs, and plaster casts have been collected for exhibition use and the data organized to present and adequately describe the somatic types encoun- tered. The question of race mixture was also considered, particularly as shown among children in the public schools. While in Honolulu the Curator and Mr. Sullivan participated in the Pan-Pacific Scientific Congress as representatives of the Museum. At this conference plans for future exploration were proposed in which this Department hopes to participate. The Polynesian Research 106 Report of the President Curator was appointed Consulting Ethnologist in the Bishop Museum, Honolulu, to assist in the organization and conduct of future Polynesian exploration. A special expedition to Southern Utah was made possible by gift from Mrs. L. P. Cartier. Assistant Curator Nelson, accompanied by Mr. B. T. B. Hyde, conducted The Mr. and Mrs. Cartier through the Grand Gulch Pecan Canyon, where the first discoveries of Cliff- Dweller culture were made by the Wetherill brothers, thirty or more years ago, and from which the first collections were taken, one of which Mr. Hyde presented to the Museum in 1895. The Canyon was carefully surveyed and many interesting sites located. In some cases, it was pos- sible to identify the particular cliff-houses from which the Museum’s collection was taken. Following the Grand Gulch trip, Assistant Curator Nelson visited the Mimbres region of southern New Mexico to examine the ruins from which came the recently acquired Mimbres collection purchased from a local collector. By the results of this journey, definite data are now available as to the sources and setting of this col- lection. Research in the Museum, in the main, has been directed to the completion of past exploration projects. In view of the contemplated changes in the staff, Curators area Lowie and Spinden have given most of their time to the completion of reports in form for immediate publication. Associate Curator Lowie has under way a final paper on his long and intensive field-work among the Indians of the Plains and the Great Basin. Assistant Curator Spinden is similarly engaged with his data from Cen- tral and South America. Dr. Goddard, Curator of Ethnology, is completing some important linguistic studies. With the close of the year, the special arrangement for the services of Mr. B. T. B. Hyde terminates. Mr. Hyde gave his time to the uncompleted work of the Hyde Expeditions of earlier years. Largely through his efforts, the results of excavations in the Chaco Canyon have been advanced to Museum Studies 107 publication and the records of other early and obscure collec- tions completed. There remain unfinished a report of the first discoveries of cliff-houses in Southern Utah and the descriptive catalogue of these early collections. It is regret- table that these also could not have been completed. Finally, note may be made of two outside contributions. Professor A. L. Kroeber visited the Museum during April and May to make a special study of our basketry collections from Cali- fornia and during his stay prepared a publication on the sub- ject and a visitor’s guide. Professor Leland L. Locke com- pleted an exhaustive study of the quipu, based chiefly upon our collections, and submitted a monograph, ready for publi- cation. 108 Report of the President PUBLIC HEALTE: CuarLes-Epwarp Amory WINsLow, Curator The routine exhibition work of the Department has been concentrated chiefly on the completion of the exhibit on the hygiene of the diet installed in the Forestry Exhibits of | Hall. The aspect of the subject dealing with the Dietary : A : Hyvise problems of personal hygiene is practically com- plete, the most important new material installed dealing with the need of the human body for mineral salts, calcium, iron and phosphorus and with the practical ways in which these needs may be economically supplied. The next, and final, section of the Food Exhibit will deal with the prob- lems of food consumption and distribution, with the broad geographical facts in regard to food production and with the food habits of various races and peoples. A novel and important contribution has been made along the line of health education by Museum methods in the completion of the School Exhibit on Dietary Hygiene prepared in codpera- tion with the Department of Public Education of the Museum at the request of the Board of Education of the City of New York. A set of twenty of these exhibits has been prepared, each including fifteen food models, a set of food composition blocks and eight charts, constituting a unique and invaluable means for the teaching of dietary hygiene to school children. The exhibit in large measure is based on the original investi- gations of Miss Mary Greig, who has been in charge of the preparation of our food exhibits for three years and whose faithful and efficient service is worthy of special recognition. The syllabus prepared by Miss Greig to accompany the school exhibit is an important contribution to the science of dietary hygiene. * Under the Department of Public Health (see also page 228). 06!

The total number of strains under cultivation is now 566. During the year ending December 1, 1920, 3,852 cultures were sent out to different laboratories of health departments and univer- sities, making a total of 30,044 cultures distributed since the opening of the laboratory in IQII. Two extensive monographs dealing with the classification of bacteria have been published by the staff during the year, and Miss Ada W. Bancroft, who is at present in charge of the collection, is engaged in a complete re-testing and re-classifica- tion of the strains in our collection, which promises to form an important contribution to our knowledge of the systematic relationships of this group. Curator Winslow has been invited by the League of Red Cross Societies to go to Geneva to organize the public health work of the League in Europe and has been Foreign granted leave of absence from February 1 to Oc- aa tober 1, 1921, to undertake this task. The League Winslow at present represents some thirty national red cross societies, and the possibilities of service through the effective codrdination of the health activities of these agencies is an almost unlimited one. It is gratifying to feel that the influence of Museum methods in health education will be extended so widely; and Dr. W. H. Park, Director of Laboratories of the City Department of Health, has consented to give his advice and counsel to the staff Curator Winslow leaves behind so that our work at home may not suffer. The exhibit plans of the Department of Public Health have moved forward steadily, though slowly, during the past few years, owing to the limited funds at the disposal aad of the Department. It seems desirable to call opecich attention to the broad plans which the Depart- ment has throughout kept in mind for what should ultimately form a complete Exhibit of the Natural IIO Report of the President History of Man. Such an exhibit would represent the natural and logical development of two obvious tendencies. On the one hand, the leaders in the public health campaign are realiz- ing more and more fully that the success of their cause depends upon the education of the public and that effective education demands the use of the best exhibition methods. On the other hand, Museum authorities are feeling year by year a keener responsibility for broadening and humanizing their activities and making the Museum of the greatest possible service in the upbuilding of the daily life of the people. These two tendencies could not unite more fruitfully than in the preparation for the American Museum of an exhibit which would deal with man as an animal, with his life history and environment, the dangers which beset him and the methods by which they can be warded off. It should emphasize par- ticularly his place in the general scheme of natural history, his relation to sunshine and rain and other meteorological factors, to the parasites which cause disease and to the animals and plants which serve him for food and clothing. It should aim to give a survey of the cycle of human life, its dangers and safeguards, sufficiently comprehensive to satisfy the curiosity of the ordinary man and to teach him what he needs to know in order to keep sound and well. Such an exhibit could be made the center of inspiration for the graphic teaching of public health, not only in New York but for the nation; and it would constitute the most vital link in the whole chain of Museum activities with the curriculum of the school child and with the life of the average citizen. The Exhibit of the Natural History of Man should include the following main sections: 1. A simple demonstration of the known laws of heredity as they govern the initial life capital with which the individual begins his career. (To be prepared in cooperation with the Department of Invertebrate Zoology. ) 2. Demonstrations by models of the workings of the human body to emphasize the physical and chemical laws which govern it and the necessity for observing Natural History of Man II the principles of personal hygiene. (To be prepared in cooperation with the Department of Physiology.) 3. Exhibit illustrating the food needs of the body and the practical ways in which they may be met within rea- sonable economic limitations. 4. Exhibit illustrating the effects of the atmosphere upon health, including the influences of climate and sea- son, the hygiene of clothing and the modern art of ventilation. 5. Exhibit demonstrating the importance of exercise and rest as factors in personal hygiene, with models illustrating the newer types of physical exercise. 6. Exhibit illustrating the natural history of the bac- teria and other parasites which threaten the health and life of human beings. 7. Exhibit dealing with water supply and disease and with the purification of water supplies as practised in modern cities. 8. Exhibit dealing with the disposal of municipal wastes and with the general art of environmental sani- tation. g. Exhibit dealing with milk, meat and other food supplies, as factors in the transmission of disease, and with the practical methods by which foods can be pro- tected against such dangers. 10. Exhibit illustrating the part played by insects and vermin in the transmission of malaria, yellow fever, plague and other pestilences. 11. Exhibit dealing with the transmission and control of the contact-borne diseases, such as influenza, pneu- monia, smallpox, scarlet fever and the like, and with the triumphs achieved by the use of sera and vaccines. 12. Exhibit dealing with the problem of the control of tuberculosis. 112 Report of the President 13. Exhibit illustrating the modern infant welfare campaign and the present day developments in school hygiene and sanitation. 14. Exhibit dealing with mental hygiene, its program and accomplishment. 15. Exhibit dealing with the degenerative diseases of adult life, such as cancer and heart disease, and the methods which can be used for their control. 16. Exhibit illustrating the machinery of modern public health administration in the American state and city. 17. Exhibit dealing with Vital Statistics, indicating graphically the results so far accomplished in the reduc- tion of the death rate and the most promising activities for the control of preventable disease and death in the future. After ten years of work on the small scale which has been possible in the past, only Sections 3, 7, 8 and g as outlined above have been practically completed and Section 6 has been begun. It is earnestly hoped that friends of the Museum and of the cause of public health may realize what such a complete exhibit of the Natural History of Man would mean to the Museum and to the City of New York and that the funds may be found for carrying this conception forward to completion. Rare Books in Library 113 THE LIBRARY * RatpH W. Tower, Curator An analysis of the work of the Department for the year just closed shows that a report of material progress can be made. It has long been our aim to be able to compare our methods and practices with those of other libraries of similar character, and to this end Miss Remmey spent a week at the John Crerar Library of Chicago, whose officers extended every courtesy possible, for which we express our highest appreciation. This visit was most beneficial in that new ideas were obtained, and most satisfactory in that many of the problems of the two institutions have been solved in the same way. The Library has added some 2,830 volumes, which include besides the new current works many of the old classics which have been obtained from the various book centres of the world. The desiderata in these old editions which patrons have re- quested now number more than a thousand, which reflects the use and value of these collections to the community. The special works purchased from the Anson W. Hard en- dowment were t Jan, Georges & Sordelli, Ferdinand Jconographie Générale des Ophidiens. Milan 1860-1881 Monkhouse, Cosmo A History and Description of Chinese Porcelain. London 1901 While writing this report, Mr. Ogden Mills, who many times in the past has enriched our Library, has authorized the pur- chase of some rare ornithological works needed in our collec- tion.

Paris 8vo. 1865-1888 An inventory shows that the shelves now contain more than 100,000 volumes, many of which are monographs of extreme interest and rarity. In order to secure more prompt and successful binding of the scientific publications of the Museum, suitable machinery has been placed in the bindery for doing edition work which has been in partial operation since last July. This branch of the work has correspondingly diminished the binding output for the Library, a condition that will be remedied, it is hoped, by later readjustments. Mr. Francis Curnan, blinded by poison gas when a member of the United States Army in France, has been employed, and has been unusually successful both in operating certain of the machines and at various kinds of bench-work—a commendable example to others who have returned with no disabilities. Publications 115 The publications of The American Museum of Natural History for the year have been the Annual Report, the Bulle- tin, the Anthropological Papers, Natural History —Journal of The American Museum of Natural History, the Guide Leaflet and the Handbook. The Bulletin is devoted to the publication of the results of field and laboratory work. It consists of about twenty articles issued at irregular intervals throughout the year. During 1920, Volume XLII was published, which contains seventeen ar- ticles: one on mammalogy, two on ichthyology, ten on inverte- brate zoology, one on herpetology, two on comparative anatomy, and one on invertebrate paleontology. Volume XLIII, which consists of seven articles on the invertebrate zoology of the Belgian Congo, was also published. The total pages for the year are 1,110, with 386 text figures and 53 plates. The Anthropological Papers are the organ of the Museum’s Department of Anthropology and are now in their twenty-sixth volume. The eight parts which appeared during 1920 include articles on the San Carlos Apache, Crow, Sarsi, Cree, Ojibway, Canadian Dakota, Sisseton Dakota, Shoshoni, Ute, Hidatsa and White Mountain Apache tribes. With the publication of their Title-page and Indices, Volumes XII, XIV and XVII have been completed. The total number of pages is 918, with 45 text figures and I map. Natural History, which has just completed its twentieth volume, has been made a bi-monthly publication. A new edition of Handbook No. 1, “North American Indians of the Plains,’ has been issued, also of Handbook No. 4, “Animals of the Past.” There have also been new edi- tions of the General Guide and of Guide Leaflets Nos. 38 and 39. The following reprint appeared: “Deep Sea Fishes,” by Dr. Louis Hussakof. “A First Chapter in Natural History,’ by Dr. F. A. Lucas, was reissued as Guide Leaflet No. 51. “An Hour in the Museum,” which takes the place of the former Key, gives, as the title implies, a schedule which enables the hurried visitor to see all the most interesting and important exhibits in an hour’s tour. Publications 116 Report of the President GENERAL SUMMARY. In closing the Fifty-second Annual Report and summing up the work of the year 1920, it seems that in many ways this has been the greatest year in the entire history of the Museum. The recognition by the city, of the Museum as an essential part of its great public educational system, by granting a maintenance fund one hundred fifty-three thousand dollars greater than it granted two years ago, is equivalent to adding three million dollars to our Endowment Fund, because there is no probability that the Museum will receive a lesser amount in future years. This action of the present city administra- tion came after the most thorough examination both of the work which the Museum is actually doing and of its methods of business administration. We have invited the closest scrutiny of not only our minutes and letter files but of all our records and accounts. At a critical moment we decided to introduce the city schedule for our entire list of officers and employees. This means that every name is subject to the scrutiny of the duly authorized officers of the Board of Esti- mate and the Finance Department. Our summaries of divi- sions of expenditures, of costs, of increasing scale in wages and salaries can therefore be compared with every other depart- ment in the city. On the other hand, during the past year the Board of Esti- mate and Apportionment, the Board of Aldermen, the Finance Department of the city, as well as the Department of Parks, have shown the utmost promptitude in meeting our payrolls and in paying our bills. There has been no disposition on the part of any city officials to take advantage of the open method of administration ; there have been, on the contrary, the utmost courtesy and good will. On behalf of the Trustees of this institution the President desires to extend the sincere acknowledgments of the Board of all these courtesies and of this prompt cooperation for the welfare of the Museum. This welfare means increased civility and hospitality to the rapidly increasing number of visitors from all parts of the United States, as well as to the increasing numbers of school teachers and children who are coming to atest ee ee Se General Summary 117 the Museum or are reached through the Museum extension system. Employees who are adequately reimbursed for their work give cheerful and attentive service. They join in the esprit de corps which is now manifest throughout the entire institution, namely, that all are working together to subserve public welfare. It is very rare indeed that we receive any criticism from visitors, perhaps not once a year. On the other hand, we receive many testimonials of the pleasure visitors have experienced in the courtesies shown to them. This hospitable atmosphere extends throughout the entire in- stitution, to young and old, to all classes and conditions. Now that the remuneration of our scientific and adminis- trative staffs and of our employees has been placed on an ade- quate basis, we must turn with renewed energy to providing: adequate space for the exhibition of our long accumulated col- lections and for the truly educational arrangement of all our exhibition halls. This great work will be accomplished, we trust, through united effort and good will on the part of the Board of Trustees and of the City and State governments dur- ing the coming fifty-third year of the life of the Museum. Respectfully submitted, HENRY FarrFIELD OsBorNn, President. 118 Report of the Treasurer FINANCES, MAINTENANCE, ENDOWMENT It is a self-evident fact that progress in research, exploration and the educational activities of the Museum is primarily de- pendent upon the finances. The care of the finances, there- fore, is one of the most important responsibilities that face the Trustees, especially with respect to the investment funds of the Museum. In these days of rapidly changing values of securi- ties of all kinds, eternal vigilance is necessary to conserve our resources. Realizing the importance of this matter, upon the recommendation of the Treasurer, the Trustees early in the year invited Messrs. Arthur M. Anderson, Francis D. Bartow and Charles E. Mitchell to serve as an Advisory Committee on Investments. All three accepted the invitation, and throughout the year they have been gratuitously rendering extremely valu- able service. The Museum is fortunate to thus have at its disposal such expert advice. Under the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Investments, the Finance Com- mittee has disposed of several of the less desirable securities, which had been acquired by gift or purchase years ago, and has converted the proceeds into holdings of greater security. At the same time, new investments have received most careful consideration. While the financial accounting of the Museum is becoming more complex every year, with the increase in the amount of the budget and the diversification of the Museum’s activities, the general methods of accounting have proven satisfactory and no material change has been necessary. The work of the Treasurer’s department, under the direction of the Bursar, Mr. Frederick H. Smyth, has been very efficient. The receipts and disbursements of all accounts of the Mu- seum are followed under a budget system. In February of each year the Trustees approve a budget, itemized for each character of expense, and at each meeting thereafter there is submitted a statement showing in detail the net receipts and 5 5 rt q : Maintenance of Museum 119 disbursements to the end of the preceding month and the esti- mated receipts and disbursements to the end of the year, in- cluding all orders placed, salaries due to December 31 and the amount of departmental allowances and reserves available. The strict adherence to a budget system is one of the reasons for the satisfactory financial status of the Museum accounts. The total disbursements for 1920 were $844,033.85, compared with $647,382.95 for 1919. In order to keep the various classes of funds distinguishable from one another, they are kept 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 125 to 143. The Endowment and Investment Account is solely for the transactions relating to the moneys received and disbursed for investment. The principal additions to the Endowment capital of the Endowment during 1920 were the and Invest- . ment Account “rst payment, amounting to $1,000,000, on ac- count of the Margaret Olivia Sage Bequest (the details of the disposition of which are clearly shown in the footnote on page 126); the bequest of Augustus D. Juilliard of $100,000; of Helen C. Juilliard of $50,000, and of Fanny Bridgham of $15,000, which with subscriptions and member- ship fees show a total of $1,173,700. During the year, on advice of the Advisory Committee on Investments, the Finance Committee sold certain stocks of the Morris K. Jesup Fund, 120 Report of the Treasurer General Endowment and the Sage Fund, and purchased bonds. The total par value of securities in the Permanent Endowment on December 31, 1920, was $9,601,750; the book value (orig- inal cash or securities by bequest or gift) was $8,565,667.73, and the uninvested cash, $2,202.57. For the first time since the Museum received appropriations from the City of New York, there was included in the City Budget, for 1920, a schedule of numbers, posi- oy tions and salaries of all employees paid in whole ene or in part by the City, and during the year pay- ments were made on this basis. A schedule was also adopted by the City for supplies and expenses. The original budget appropriation was $253,906 for salaries, and $41,234 for supplies and expenses, a total of $295,140. In August, the City granted a general increase of wages to all City employees, including employees of the Museum. To make this new schedule effective, the City provided an additional appropriation for the Museum of $17,515.37, making the grand total of the maintenance appropriation for the year $312,655.37. By reason of changes in force, there was a loss of $1,672.24 which reverted to the City. The net sum expended by the City for maintenance, therefore, was $310,983.13. The General Account is for the receipt of unrestricted funds, which the Trustees may apply for general purposes. Any deficit arising from insufficient funds in this or Trustees’ the City Maintenance Account must be met yysesien through the General Account. While the capital of the Sage Fund is kept intact as a special be- quest, its income is included in this account. The sources of receipts are varied, as is shown by the principal items for 1920.

Following the terms of the wills of Mr. and Mrs. Jesup that the fund created by them be used for scientific adminis- tration, i.e., for exploration, the enrichment of Morris K. the collections, researches and the publication of _alalelgte the results of these investigations, it will be noted that every scientific department benefited by this fund. The income from investments amounted to $271,850.97, increased by sale of publications and exchanges to $274,606.34. The Special Funds Account comprises those special gifts through which a person or group wishes to show special in- terest in one branch of scientific work, and when Special a sum is donated for a specific use, the Museum Funds ‘ p De oe expends it through this account. In 1920 the total received was $55,205.93. The minor accounts (pages 140-143) are the Crocker Land Expedition Fund Account; the Corporate Stock Account, for the purpose of recording transactions relating to ae construction of cases, etc.; the Incidental Ac- ccounts : au SAS count, for all moneys received from individuals and societies, wherever the Museum acts as agent; the Museum Building Fund Account, the nucleus of a fund for building purposes.

P. DAVISON, Treasurer BE & QO. E. | New York, December 31, 1920 ‘ 144 Report of the Secretary MEMBERSHIP Our membership roll has continued to grow, and the number of new names added in 1920 was 661. This, we think, is a good showing when one considers the number of calls on our members for contributions to various good causes. The total membership of 5,556 names means that the Museum has many friends who are interested in its work and who believe that it is adding to the forces of education in our city and country. Members receive current copies of our Journal Natural His- tory, a magazine devoted to science stated in non-technical language and of wide interest as giving results in many fields of modern research. It is printed in attractive form and is profusely illustrated. Members will find the Members’ Room on the third floor, near the elevator, a very convenient and attractive place in which to rest during their visits to the Museum. An attend- ant is on duty, and if Members desire to have some one show them exhibits in the Museum, it is only necessary to make their wishes known to this attendant. The lecture privileges enjoyed by Members are extensive, and during the year 1920 we were enabled to give Members an opportunity to attend a great number of special lectures, in addition to those in the regular course. The American Museum of Natural History, in conjunction with certain other museums, is reciprocating with the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences in the exchange of membership privileges. When a Member of the American Museum visits the Museum of the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences and presents his membership card at the office, the privileges ac- corded its Members will be accorded the Member of the American Museum. This plan, with which we are heartily in accord, was sug- gested by the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences, with the hope that such a step would promote the friendly relations ees WOOY SutINAJ AH] TT s Z Sr POE al OI ee Cae ae = = — 0 t = & 7 = as = ee ee = = oe Oe Se | eS ee Lectures to Members 145 already existing between these museums, encourage and stimu- late the interest of Members, and serve to increase scientific knowledge. Among the special lectures and meetings to which Members were invited, mention may be made of the following: The Spring Course of Lectures to Members included: “With the Big Game Animals of the Yellowstone,” by Norman Mc- Clintock; “Tahiti and the Islands of the South oni =~. Seas, by Henry E. Crampton ; “The Story of Our Furs,” by Frederic A. Lucas; and “Big Game Hunting in Mongolia,” by Roy C. Andrews.

Clyde Fisher ; “Hawaii and Its Volcanoes,’ by Edmund Otis Hovey; “The Bird Islands of Peru,” by Robert Cushman Murphy; and “Chile and the Fuegian Archipelago,” by Charles W. Furlong. The Spring Course for the Children of Members included: “Song Birds as Good Citizens,” by William L. Finley. The lecture which was to have been given by Mr. Lecturesto Ernest Thompson Seton on “Woodland Tales and Miudren of =~ Tndian Stories” was not given owing to the ill- embers ness of Mr. Seton. In its place, some new stories about Buster Bear, Reddy Fox, Johnny Chuck and Peter Rabbit were given by Mr. Thornton W. Burgess. The other lectures were: “The Great Bird Colonies of Peru,’ by Robert Cushman Murphy, and “Our Animal Allies of the Great War,” by Ernest Harold Baynes. The Autumn Course to the Children of Members included: “Some of My Mascots,” by Ernest Harold Baynes; “Folk-Lore of Our New England Indians,” by Mabel F. Knight; “Our Feathered Neighbors,” by Frank M. Chapman; and “Making Friends with the Wild,” by Clinton G. Abbott. The twenty-fifth anniversary of the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society was celebrated at the Museum on January 13, at which time several addresses were made. 146 Report of the Secretary The Aéronautical Society of America, in conjunction with The American Museum of Natural History, held a special meeting devoted to the subject of Aérial Photog- raphy in Peace and War, in the auditorium of the Museum on March 25, at which several ad- dresses were made, illustrated by motion pictures, lantern slides and instruments. In Conservation Week, the following lectures were given in our auditorium: April 8, “Own Your Home,” by the Honor- able Charles O’Connell Hennessey; April 9, “Gardening for Profit,” by Mr. Van Evrie Kilpatrick; and April 10, “The School Lunch,” by Dr. Gustave Straubenmuller.

King gave a lecture on “Scientific Discovery and the Wireless Telephone.” On May 27, under the auspices of the Music League of the People’s Institute, a concert was given by the Children’s Fes- tival Chorus under the direction of Dr. Tali Esen Morgan. On May 28, a lecture was given by Mr. Robert C. Murphy, illustrated by films and slides, under the Explorers’ Club, in cooperation with the Museum, on Peru. On October 6, exercises commemorating the hundredth an- niversary of the birth of Andrew Haswell Green were held in the auditorium, under the auspices of the Andrew H. Green Memorial Committee, appointed by His Honor Mayor John F. Hylan, pursuant to a Resolution of the Board of Aldermen. Several addresses were made. Music was furnished (through the courtesy of Mr. E. F. Albee, of B. F. Keith’s Theatre) by the B. F. Keith’s Boys’ Band and by Miss Grace Nelson.

D. 248 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 Eighth Annual Report of the activities of the Pension Board and of its financial oper- ations for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1920. FeLtix M. Warpure, Chairman. February I, 1921 249 250 Pension Fund Report After eight years of successful operation, it is the concensus of opinion that the basic principles of our pension system were soundly formulated, and that the success of the plan has been due in great measure to the foresight which created a pension committee composed jointly of employer and employee rep- resentatives. In one of his essays, Thomas Carlyle says: “The man who must work and the man who must find work for that man to do should be bound by ties that are stronger than mere wages.”’ | This conviction lies at the root of our pension system, and its expression was prophetic of the whole present trend of relations between employer and employee. The Pension Fund operations of these eight years are espe- cially gratifying in view of the restrictions we have been under owing to lack of endowment, and the fact that full credit for their years of service previous to the formation of the Fund is allowed our employees, without the exaction of contribu- tions or the allocation of funds to cover such years. All claims have been paid, however, and an unusually satisfactory invest- ment fund has been accumulated. And, to gauge the value of our system from another standpoint, the Museum Administra- tion assure us that the pension plan serves to attract the best class of workers, to retain skilled employees, to increase the general good will and to promote efficiency and initiative. There are of course certain features of the present system which it is felt could be improved with benefit to the employee body and the Corporation mutually. This applies particularly to the rules governing pension grants, service requirements and general administration of the funds. It has been sug- gested, for instance, that the present minimum pension pay- ments should be increased ; that workers should have the option of retiring after a continuous service of twenty-five years; that in order to establish the status of part-time employees a rule should be fixed defining what portion of a year of service an employee must give to the Museum in order to be eligible to membership in the Fund; and that more exact provisions should be made for the direction by the Pension Board of matters of Pension Fund administration. Pension Fund Report 2ct Our pension system is now constituted on an old-age basis exclusively. The idea is gaining strength that long service is also entitled to its reward, and that after twenty-five years of faithful work, the employee should be given the opportunity to retire on pension, (and, if he finds it necessary so to sup- plement his income, to engage in such other less exacting work as he feels able to undertake), in order that the remaining years of his life may yield a personal profit and satisfaction which are not to be enjoyed during the working life of the average wage-earner, but which are a part of everyone’s birth- right and for which any just and successful economic scheme must make provision. So far as the Museum is concerned, experience indicates that on the present basis few of our em- ployees avail themselves of their right to retire unless driven to do so by physical necessity. The probability is that the number of employees who would retire on a service basis would be small. This is of course due to the fact that Museum personnel is composed largely of workers whose work is their first inter- est in life and therefore their most vital and enjoyable form of self-expression. It is probably among the clerical and mechan- ical workers that most retirements on a service basis would be sought. The additional liability against the Fund would be slight, and the granting of the privilege could not act other- wise than to improve the general morale of the workers. Such additional financial obligation as a service pension provision would involve, moreover, might be compensated for by the tak- ing out of group insurance (briefly discussed below), to take the place of Pension Fund death gratuities. The problem of the status of part-time employees is a diffi- cult one. So far as has been ascertained at this time, the opinion prevails that nine months per year of continuous serv- ice should be required of every employee who is to be classed as “permanent,” and that in no event should any employee be permitted to become a subscriber whose name and yearly salary rate is not included in the annual budget. A committee is at the present time engaged in the considera- tion of these and other proposed revisions of the Rules and Regulations, and in its investigations is giving attention to all 252 Pension Fund Report available material bearing on the subject of pension fund reg- ulations and administration. | In this connection the subject of group insurance will be considered, for, if this form of insurance should be found adapted to our needs and be approved by the Trustees of the Corporation, it would go far in helping to solve the problem of reducing age and service requirements for retirement. Group insurance, as the name suggests, means an insurance issued under a single contract (renewable yearly) covering all the persons of a group working under the same employer. It can be undertaken if at least 75% to 80% of the permanent employees accept the plan. The policy is issued without medical examination. It insures the individual employee in the event of death in the amount of his annual salary, up to $5,000, and is obtainable at a rate of between 34% and 1% of his annual salary. In the hypothetical case where the per- sonnel of the employee body remains the same from year to year, the rate, naturally, increases; but with a “turnover” of at least 15% (such as may be reasonably counted on in our institution), the rate would remain almost constant. Frequently the policies are effected and paid for by the employer, sometimes by the employee; or the premium rate may be divided jointly. It is also permissible to base the insurance on length of service, the policy calling for a lesser amount during the early years of employment and gradually increasing until the maximum, $5,000, is reached. But it is thought that the salary basis, described above, is the better. When the contract is effected, the employer receives the general policy and each employee an individual certificate. New permanent employees taken on during the year are automati- cally insured from the first day of permanent employment. Those leaving the service have the option for thirty days of continuing their insurance, in the amount of their salary on leaving, without medical examination, under any of the various options offered by the insurance company, i.e., ordinary life, twenty payment life, or endowment. This insurance is car- ried, of course, under the regular company rates. There are several decided advantages in group insurance as compared with the death insurance features of our pension Pension Fund Report 253 system, namely: under the group insurance plan, the employee is insured immediately from the time his status is defined as permanent, while under our present plan, the insurance feature does not become active until the employee has been a member of the Pension Fund for an entire year; group insurance offers a gratuity from 40% to 75% greater than that provided for under our present plan; the group plan provides insurance at a much lower rate than it is possible for the Pension Fund, with its additional responsibilities and limited resources, to offer ; participants in the group insurance plan have the priv- ilege of continuing their policy, without medical examination, after leaving the employ of the Museum. Weare glad to report that at the close of 1920 we have 249 contributors. There have been forty new members admitted into the Fund during the past year, eighteen have resigned and two have been dismissed. We have lost by death four sub- scribers, of whom further mention is made later in this report. There has been one retirement. In the recent death of Horace F. Hutchinson, banker and financier, a fine and generous man was lost, and, so far as the Museum was concerned, a valued member and very good friend, who for eight years past has given to Museum em- ployees in need the frequent and free use of his endowed beds in the Presbyterian Hospital. To Mr. Lewis L. Delafield, Colonel S. Herbert Wolfe, Dr. John A. Fordyce and Dr. George M. Mackenzie, we are under deep obligation, and we take this opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to them. Bereased Subscribers We deeply regret to have to report the deaths of the fol- lowing members during the year 1920: ADAM BRICKNER Adam Brickner was born in New York City on June 17, 1875. He came to the Museum in 1897 and was first attached to the Department of Vertebrate Palaeontology, but soon after was transferred to the Department of Geology as an assistant under the late Professor Whitfield. In this capacity he served with great efficiency and faithfulness, despite a distressing physical condition which existed for the last ten years of his life, until his death on December 12, 1920. Be- cause of his knowledge of the specimens in the department, his services were always in demand, and it will be very difficult to fill his place. Of most kindly disposition, and steadfast in his friendships, he was always welcome in groups of his fellow employees. Joun T. Davis John T. Davis was born on September 9, 1844, in Flagtown, New Jersey. After being employed for many years as a ship- joiner, he began general carpentry work for contractors who were engaged in Museum building and case construction. In 1901, he entered the service of the Museum and became a member of the Construction Department, in which capacity he 255 250 Pension Fund Report served until 1917, when he was forced to retire because of declining health. He died on August 15, 1920. He was the fortunate possessor of an exceedingly happy disposition and courteous manner, and of the faculty of retaining the friend- ship of those with whom he came in daily contact. RicHARD P. ScHUTZ Richard P. Schutz was born in Honesdale, Pennsylvania, on June 1, 1857. In Igi10, he became an attendant in the Museum, in which position he served during his remaining years. His services were always satisfactory to the Adminis- tration, and his uniform kindliness toward all with whom he associated will long be remembered. His sudden death on August 27, 1920, came as a distinct shock to all the employees of the Museum who had known him. BENJAMIN L. SMITH Benjamin L. Smith was born in New York City on Decem- ber 29, 1877. In 1902, he became a member of the Construc- tion Department, where he served as a painter until March I5, 1919, when, because of ill health, he was obliged to go on leave of absence. His condition became such that it was neces- sary for him to live in the mountains of Pennsylvania. There he died on October 2, 1920. He was an excellent worker at his trade and of cheerful disposition. His death was a matter of general regret among his associates.
