Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Director of the Museum of Comparative Zoölogy at Harvard College to the President of Harvard College for 1944-1945 In several ways this year has been a most momentous and per plexing one for the Museum. A number of unexpected Situations. Have arisen in connection with various financial aspects of the department, 'problems, however, which have led to my great satis faction and enjoyment. For I have found that the Museum has two great and good and hitherto unknown friends. They are warmer, more kindly, and more. Sympathetic than I ever dreamed anyone might be. Mr. Conant has had to pass a large part of his time in washington In connection with his Governmental activ ities, tied up with the war effort. This has thrown the active day by day, management of the University in the efficient hands of Mr. William H. Clafiin, J r., the Treasurer, and Dean Paul H. Buck. Both of these men have proved to be more than the Shadows of great rocks in a weary land. They have indeed been the Shadows and'éthe rocks too. I owe them a'word of sincere and heartfelt thanks before proceeding with my report. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
