PREFATORY NOTE 



It is frequently necessary to rearrange the exhibits in order to provide 

 space for new material or to put into effect advanced ideas regarding 

 methods of exhibition, and as these changes are taking place all the time, 

 it unavoidably happens that now and then discrepancies will be found 

 between the actual arrangement of the specimens and that noted in the 

 Guide. In some cases further information may be obtained from the 

 Guide Leaflets which describe exhibits of special interest. See list 

 of Popular Publications.

FLOOR PLAN OF THE MUSEUM 



Showing the location of the halls and the names by which they are designated in 

 this Guide. See Key to Exhibition Halls on opposite page. 



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

 Museum building, 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 

 facade (the only facade completed) becomes the "southeast pavilion."
