worked over and displayed An ap
propriation was recently granted
for this purppse. In addition to
the restoration of the boges, de
tailed drawings are being made of
the collection.
Perhaps the most
piece of work now being done is
the restoration aqd assembling of
the skull of a prehistoric tlephant
which was racently four .: by farm-
svs near Pitts Bridge kfhieh is

The work is being done largely
by C. J. Hesse, assistant curator,
and R. L. Peterson. The Illustra
tions are being made by Hal Mose
