ation of the Chinese Government is assured, and one of the 

 chief purposes of the Expedition on our part is to aid in the 

 training of a number of the young Chinese in zoologic, archaeo- 

 logic, and geologic work who will gradually develop materials 

 for an educational natural history museum in Peking. Among 

 the many generous contributors to the Asiatic Fund are the 

 following : 



American Asiatic Association and William A. Harriman (Trustee)

In recognition of his studies in French archaeology and an- 

 thropology ("Men of the Old Stone Age"), Professor Osborn 



has been made a member of the Council of the 

 Prehistory Institut de Paleontologie Humaine of Paris, and 

 Europe "* a Vice-President of the Eugenics Institute of Great 



Britain. The preparation and plans of the Hall of 

 the Age of Man have attracted wide attention. In this work 

 our Research Associate, Professor J. Howard McGregor, and 

 our new Curator of Comparative Anatomy, Professor William 

 K. Gregory, have cooperated with Mr. Louis R. Sullivan, mak- 

 ing an effective triumvirate on the ancestral history of man. 

 The formation of the Galton Society, which meets in the 

 Osborn Library, for the discussion of problems of human 

 evolution, has brought anthropologists, anatomists and biolo- 

 gists from all parts of the country to counsel on this problem 

 of problems. Out of this has grown the institution of the 

 Galton Laboratory in the Department of Anthropology, and 

 Mr. Sullivan has been made Director of it.
