Il consider TIE state exceptionally farta-
nate" said Secretary Philips yesterday,
IN having been thus accorded such an
honor and such an opportunity Georgia
was selected from among the Southern
states as having made the most marked
recent progress. and Washington was
given similar distinction among the
western states. This means that. while
the museum aims ultimately al Obtaining

Georgia from the South and Washington

their neishoors in placing their exhibits.

tude OF the proposed museum. Two hun

been secured in Philadelphia as temporary
resting places for the collections as they
come in The ground thus far secured in

added to.
The exhibits are TO be collected and ar

aim being to make the entire affair genu-
Inc educational museum. One stipulation
concerning all the exhibits is that they are

Using. Along with each separate collec-
ton. as CT fish. for instance. the most ac-
curate and complete data are TO be COM
piled and presented. All this Will undeubt-
edly render the museum a valuable source

exhibit a dignity and weight which IL could
hardly have under other circumstances.
