its auditorium freely, encouraging
the holding of meetings therein, the

concerts. So popular have been the
free Sunday afternoon concerts given
during the past winter under the au-
spices of the museum, that the audi

altogether inadequate.

Charles Moore is now director. has

finest collections of Chinese rugs in
this country if not in the world. This
