Considerable preparatory and experimental work for the proposed exhibit of reptile groups at the World's Columbian Fair was accomplished during the month. Letters soliciting aid in acquiring fresh material for casts were sent out, but on account of the lateness of the season, it is not expected that much will be received until spring.
