During the year Dr. H. McE. Knower, who had acted for 

 many years as librarian offered his resignation. During his term 

 of office the library has undergone its greatest development, and 

 owing to his efforts it has been well arranged and catalogued. 

 The Board of Trustees in accepting Dr. Knower's resignation 

 instructed the Secretary to express to him the appreciation which 

 all felt of the value of his services to the Laboratory. The 

 office of librarian was filled by the appointment of Dr. R. P. 

 Bigelow, librarian of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 

 Mrs. T. H. Montgomery, Jr. was appointed resident assistant 

 librarian in immediate charge of the library. At the meeting 

 of the Corporation August 12, 1919, Professor W. M. Wheeler, 

 of the Bussey Institution, Harvard University, was elected" a 

 member of the Board of Trustees of the class of 1923 to succeed
