The distribution of the publications to foreign countries continues 

 to be accomplished through the courtesy of the Bureau of Inter- 

 national Exchanges of the Smithsonian Institution. 



The eighth edition of the Guide was issued during the year, and 

 several improvements will be noted in its general make-up. The 

 descriptions of the collections, in several instances, have been cur- 

 tailed, thus making the book more convenient for ready reference- 

 This issue is illustrated which it is expected will add to its value 

 and interest.
