more accurate more easily interpreted, and to have the boxes and packages in such shape as to make as easy as possible, the working out and assembling of the bones in the Museum. As the loss of these records would be irreparable, and as duplicate records and charts must now be sent to the office of the Secretary of the Interior and to the Secretary of the Smithsonian, and as these records are already becoming quite voluminous, provision is being made at the quarry for their safe and convenient preservation.

As Mr. C. W. Gilmore of Washington, D.C., has been studying and describing the collection of Uinta Turtles belonging to the Museum, at the request of Dr. Holland those collected last fall near White River have been forwarded to the Museum. The remainder of the Uinta fossils -- probably 7,000 or 8,000 pounds -- have not yet been shipped.
