to his energy and ability as an explorer.
Perhaps no other private investigator
has rendered more service to the
National Museum through his explora-
tons than DR.. Abbott.
The department OF anthropology OF the
National Museum works in conjunction
with the bureau of American ethnology.
For several years William II. Holmes,
the head curator Of the department. was
engaged in the study Of the stone imple-
mentS in the collections Of the National
Museum the results of which study con-
stitute contribution to the publication
of the bureau of ethnology. Through
these studies much light is beng thrown
upon the relationship which existed be-
tween the various tribes of Indians of
America prior TO the coming Of Columbus
With all of its wonderful diversity OF
exhibits. the department Of anthropology
is to the average individual the most
interesting in the museum. The collec-
tions typical of the history of the United
States. from its earliest beginnings. in
GLIDING personal relics of every great
name in American history and ranging
from the camp kit of George Washington
to the trophies Of the Roosevelt expedi-
ton into Africa. are fascinating in their
variety and valuable in the lessons they
teach.
