32 The American Museum of Natural History 



School for Teachers. The results have pointed out the opportunity 

 for the Museum to render further practical service to the cause of 

 education by giving a series of carefully thought-out lectures to the 

 student teachers in all the training schools, the purpose being to bring 

 to their attention through new channels the biological principles upon 

 which our whole social fabric is based, to give a greater breadth of 

 vision, and specifically to make them intimately acquainted with the 

 Museum's methods and facilities for service. 



We would make these young teachers at the beginning of their 

 work realize by personal experience the interest and value of what 

 the American Museum can give and make them know that they can 

 always get merely for the asking this background for their geography, 

 history or science classes. 



By such a plan the Museum will be contributing to the source of 

 successful education in New York City.
