 1919, to the State Hospital at Bangor, Maine; (2) Cornelia Augen- 

 stein, 1919, to the Girls' Training School at Gainesville, Texas. Owing 

 to war conditions, the contract for a joint-basis worker made a year

 was discontinued in April 1919. The contract is being completed by 

 assigning (3) Miss Dorothy Aldridge, of this year's training com-se, to 

 6 months' work at Central Islip, beginning September 1, 1919. 



Custodial institutions which have introduced modern eugenical 

 field-studies by the joint-basis plan now number 53. 



VOLUNTEER COLLABORATORS. 



Superintendents of institutions who have once introduced modern 

 eugenical field-studies into their work continue to send for deposit at 

 the Eugenics Record Office copies of family-history studies made 

 independently by their own workers. This year special mention should 

 be made of contributions from Dr. David F. Weeks, superintendent 

 of the State Village for Epileptics at Skillman, New Jersey; of Dr. 

 Fred C. Nelles, superintendent of the State School at Whittier, Cali- 

 fornia; of Dr. Floyd C. Haviland, superintendent of the State Hospital 

 at Middletown, Connecticut; of Dr. F. Kuhlman, of the Minnesota 

 School for Feeble-Minded at Faribault, Minnesota; of Dr. Oscar E. 

 Thompson, of the State Institution for Feeble-Minded of Eastern 

 Pennsylvania, at Spring City, Pennsylvania; of Dr. C. A. Potter, of 

 the Gowanda State Hospital at CoUins, New York; of Dr. Chester L. 

 Carlisle, director of the Bureau of Analysis, State Board of Charities, 

 at Albany, New York; and of Dr. Charles S. Little, superintendent 

 of the Letchworth Village for Epileptics at Thiells, New York. Be- 

 sides these institutions, a number of eugenicists have, on their own 

 account, been equally generous and attentive in their collaboration. 

 During the past year eugenical records have been contributed to the 

 archives of the Eugenics Record Office by Professor Will S. Monroe, 

 Montclair, New Jersey, and many others.
