78 ANNUAL REPORT SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, 1935

 arately, as has been the practice for many years.

Under the direction of the Museum editor, work was continued 

 on the index of Museum publications, which has been in progress

 Proceedings, volume 16. About 30,000 cards were added during the 

 year, making a total of 115,000, exclusive of 79,000 not entered in

 Institution Centenary.
