3.  WHAT PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE IN CARING FOR THE COLLECTIONS UNDER YOUR CUSTODY, i.e., IN THEIR PRESERVATION AND INSTALLATION.

The ^[[reserve]] collections are preserved but in a very unsatisfactory condition as far as appearance goes.  They are safe from loss but not in ^[[good]] condition for ready reference.  There is urgent need of storage facilities which can be furnished by use of stacks for holding unit drawers.
The exhibition series is in good condition yet there is still work to be completed in labelling.
