  The 
  

   year 
  covered 
  by 
  the 
  present 
  volume 
  is 
  made 
  notable 
  in 
  the 
  his- 
  

   tory 
  of 
  the 
  Institution 
  since 
  in 
  it 
  came 
  the 
  death 
  of 
  the 
  founder, 
  

   the 
  able 
  business 
  man 
  and 
  broad-minded 
  philanthropist, 
  Andrew 
  

   Carnegie. 
  This 
  took 
  place 
  at 
  his 
  home 
  in 
  Lenox, 
  Mass., 
  in 
  

   August, 
  1919, 
  when 
  Mr. 
  Carnegie 
  had 
  nearly 
  concluded 
  his 
  

   eighty-fourth 
  year 
  It 
  is 
  fitting 
  that 
  the 
  personality 
  of 
  Mr. 
  Car- 
  

   negie 
  and 
  his 
  work, 
  not 
  only 
  in 
  connection 
  with 
  the 
  Institution 
  

   but 
  also 
  his 
  many 
  other 
  useful 
  activities 
  for 
  industry 
  and 
  the 
  

   country 
  at 
  large, 
  should 
  be 
  dwelt 
  upon 
  at 
  length 
  in 
  this 
  place. 
  

   The 
  year 
  of 
  1919 
  was 
  also 
  marked 
  by 
  the 
  death 
  of 
  two 
  of 
  the 
  

   most 
  eminent 
  Trustees 
  of 
  the 
  Institution, 
  Andrew 
  D. 
  White 
  and 
  

   Theodore 
  Roosevelt. 
  

  

  The 
  influence 
  of 
  the 
  world 
  war 
  had 
  its 
  effect 
  upon 
  the 
  Car- 
  

   negie 
  Institution 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  upon 
  the 
  many 
  Bureaus 
  immediately 
  

   connected 
  with 
  the 
  Government. 
  This 
  was 
  true 
  of 
  the 
  work 
  of 
  

   the 
  Geophysical 
  Laboratory 
  in 
  developing 
  the 
  optical 
  glass 
  indus- 
  

   try 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  manufacture 
  of 
  precision 
  micrometers 
  for 
  the 
  Bureau 
  

   of 
  Standards 
  and 
  of 
  optical 
  instruments 
  by 
  the 
  staff 
  of 
  the 
  

   Mount 
  Wilson 
  Observatory 
  ; 
  in 
  the 
  construction 
  of 
  special 
  devices 
  

   for 
  the 
  Xavy 
  by 
  the 
  Department 
  of 
  Terrestrial 
  Magnetism 
  ; 
  in 
  

   the 
  investigation 
  of 
  the 
  effects 
  of 
  undernutrition 
  in 
  the 
  Nutri- 
  

   tion 
  Laboratory. 
  These 
  are 
  some 
  of 
  the 
  contributions 
  made 
  by 
  

   the 
  Institution 
  in 
  response 
  to 
  the 
  Nation's 
  call. 
  

  

  Notwithstanding 
  these 
  demands 
  upon 
  its 
  energies 
  the 
  depart- 
  

   ments 
  named 
  have 
  also 
  gone 
  on, 
  so 
  far 
  as 
  possible, 
  with 
  their 
  

   regular 
  work, 
  while 
  other 
  departments 
  have 
  been 
  able 
  to 
  keep 
  

   their 
  activities 
  up 
  to 
  the 
  maximum. 
  Of 
  the 
  latter 
  may 
  be 
  men- 
  

   tioned 
  in 
  particular 
  the 
  following 
  with 
  the 
  names 
  of 
  their 
  

   directors 
  : 
  of 
  Botanical 
  Research 
  (D. 
  T. 
  MacDougal) 
  ; 
  of
