 penditures of the current funds of Chicago Natural History Museum for the years 

 1957 and 1956, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles con- 

 sistently applied during the years. Our examination of the statement was made 

 in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included 

 such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we 

 considered necessary in the circumstances.
