Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Director of the Museum of Comparative Zoölogy at Harvard College to the President and Fellows of Harvard College for 1930-1931 The past year has seen such constant improvement in the exhibition rooms as it has been possible to make without curtailing unduly the time which the staff normally devotes to research. Plate glass has been installed in most of the rooms where the cases contained old glass of very poor quality and many of the cases have been enlarged and rearranged. The Australian and South American Rooms are now mostly furnished with plate glass and many of the specimens have been cleaned and freshened. The Hummingbird case in the South American Hall, through the kindness of James C. Greenway, Jr. And Harold J. Coolidge, Jr., has been rebuilt, electrically lighted to bring out the iridescent colors of the birds, and forms a particularly attractive exhibit. Through the generosity of Mr. George R. Agassiz, the Fish Room has been entirely reglazed with plate glass, and is now in process of being rearranged. It has been possible to replace some of the poorer specimens with new mounts and many of the others have been remounted and freshened. The completed room will be far more instructive, as' well as better looking than ever before. The labeling of the exhibitions has progressed more rapidly this year, since, in cooperation with the botanical section of the Uni versity Museum, we now print our own labels here in the building. The Botanical printing shop was previously used but a small part of the time, but now, with a full time printer employed, it does regular job work for both sections of the Museum. This arrangement Should have been made long ago and in the future it will be desirable to have a printing office to serve the whole University Museum.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Director of the Museum of Comparative Zoölogy at Harvard College, to the President and Fellows of Harvard College for 1914-1915 This year the permanent staff of the Department remained the same as in 1913 - 1914. The assistants appointed for the year were: Dr. W. P. Haynes and Messrs. Francis Chamberlain, F. L. Cole, Sidney Powers, H. M. Sampson, E. W. Shuler, Edward Wiggles worth, and H. N. Witt. The Department was fortunate enough to secure the services of Dr. Ralph Arnold, who in April gave a course of ten lectures on the Geology of petroleum. He came at the joint invitation of this Department and the Department of Geology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, half of the course being given at each' institution. The lectures were most stimulating and the geologists of Boston owe much to Dr. Arnold for his generosity in interrupting his busy professional life to give his masterly summary Of a subject so important in eco nomics and technology. The success of this informal course illustrates the need of a permanent professorship in the geology of the non-metals. The number of Students reached by the Department shows another gratifying increase. A comparative table gives its amount; it refers, however, only to courses taken during the winter sessions. For the past year the numbers of students completing courses are shown in the following table. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Director of the Museum of Comparative Zoölogy at Harvard College to the President of Harvard College for 1933-1934 Since the foundation of the Museum Palaeontology here has usually meant Invertebrate Palaeontology. This was natural, because invertebrate material could be collected more economi cally and stored more compactly than vertebrate material and, moreover, Louis and Alexander Agassiz were both deeply in terested in the invertebrate field and bought several great collec tions in Europe which at once established this Museum as a natural center for investigators of many invertebrate groups. Of the vertebrates the fishes were the only favored class. Here again the same reasons produced the same results and the Museum has long been noted for its resources and investigations and in recent years, especially, concerning the early and very primitive fishes. Some years ago it became obvious that our collections were badly out of balance and the needs of students interested in stratigraphic geology, as well as comparative anatomy, made it clear that we must have a better representation of the other groups and, although inadequately equipped to do so, I have been myself fussing with Palaeontology for some years. The result, however, has been eminently satisfactory inasmuch as we now have material sufficient to warrant our inviting a Vertebrate Palaeontologist interested in the higher groups to come here and work. Alfred Sherwood Romer has joined the Staff of the Museum as well as that of the Division of Biology. He offers no course this year but will spend his time organizing the collections so that they may be profitably used in connection with his teaching next year and he has some most promising investigations already under way.
