country He was kind enough to make
US duplicate collection for this museum.
which we prize very highly. l also want
| to express my appreciation for the loan
Of a most valuable library on conchology
which we find useful In the ella ssifcation
of the shell collection. Mr.. Aldrich has
one of the best libraries on this subject
In the world.
I'VE are making a desperate effort to
get all the collections arranged and the
museum in shape for the formal opening
of the building on May 80, but it Is
stupendous undertaking that cannot be
appreciated by the average layman.
There are thousands of specimens of all
descriptions to be assorted, labeled and
arranged in their proper place. Hereto-
fore we have been in cramped quarters
and the collection has never been ar
ranged as it should be on account of
the lack of space and facilities.
Scope of Collection
1.-THE people of Alabama would be as
tonished at the extent and scope of this
collection. DIR. Eugene Smith has worked
hard and faithfully for many years to
assemble the collection and l want to
say that the result Is most gratifying.
The state should be proud of this work
For some time Curator Herbert H.
Smith was curator of the great Carnegie
Museum at Pittsburg, One of the most
important in the country. He has de-
voted his entire life to scientific re-
search and study and his work in the
Alabama museum is invaluable.
In the right wing of Smith hall, the
geological building, is a most valuable
and select scientific library, which was
donated to the institution by DR.. Eugene
A. Smith.
The building is one of the handsomest
and most imposing on the campus The
grounds about the building are being
graded and beautihed, Flowers and
shrubbery will be planted. The build
ing Is finished in Alabama marble
Herbert H. Smith is not related In any
