Prefatory Note 



It is the |)urj)()S(' of this Ciidk to call attention to the nioi'c inij)ort- 

 ant exhibits that t lie \isitoi- will sec as he j)asses throu<2;h the halls. 

 More detailed information rej2;ar(lin<i; the sjx'ciniens may he obtained 

 from the labels or from the (iiddc Lcajlcts. 



It is frequently neeessan' to rearrange the exhi])its in order to pro- 

 vide space for new material or to put into effect advanced ideas regard- 

 ing methods of exliibition, and as these changes are taking place all the 

 time, it unavoidably ha])pens that now and then discrepancies will be 

 found between the actual arrangement of the exhibits and that noted in 

 the Guide. Dr. Goode has said that a finished museum is a dead mu- 

 seum, and it is hoped that the visitor will look upon these necessary 

 changes as indications of life and progress.

The halls are named according to the position they will have in the completed Museum build- 

 ing, which will consist of four long facades, facing east, west north and south respectively, each 

 connected with the center of the quadrangle formed, by a wing extending between open courts. 

 Thus the hall at the eastern end of the south fapade (the only facade completed) becomes the 

 "southeast pavilion."
