Educational Work 
Twenty-two new mounted specimens were added by Mr. Patch and his 
assistants to the school loan collection and 657 specimens were lent to 
schools in Ottawa for use in nature study and art classes. This service to 
the schools of Ottawa has been in operation for a good many years and is 
steadily increasing in volume. 
Reference is made again here to the recent publication of “ Birds of 
Canada,” by Mr. Taverner. Some indication of the popularity of this book 
is afforded by the fact that 53,000 copies of its predecessors, u Birds of 
Eastern Canada ” and “ Birds of Western Canada/’ have been sold and 
otherwise distributed.

Exhibition Work 
C. L. Patch and his assistants prepared a biological, and also an anthro- 
pological, display for the Central Canada Exhibition at Ottawa in August. 
He is constructing a miniature Haida Indian village, on a scale of 1 inch 
to 1 foot, for one of the two Indian and Eskimo halls. This exhibit, which 
is the first of several miniature habitat groups that are planned, will con- 
sist of houses, totem poles, boats, and other typical features of a village as 
seen from the water, with a forest background and with human figures 
engaged in the ordinary activities of such a community. 
Mr. Patch and staff, D. Blakeley and J. E. Perron, also continued to 
mount mammals and birds that will eventually be incorporated into habitat 
groups when space in the Museum becomes available for this purpose. With 
the same purpose in view Mr. Johnson has been preparing quantities of col- 
oured wax leaves, flowers, and other accessories. He also did a large share 
in preparing a miniature dinosaur habitat group for the hall of vertebrate
