Abstract
I HAVE read with very great interest both the letters and articles which have lately appeared in NATURE on the subject of local museums. The suggestions offered by your various correspondents are in every way admirable, and my only excuse for adding my own name to the number is because I think that although a great deal has been said on the matter next to nothing has actually been done. If local museums are to be established amongst us as a means of promoting advancement in education the sooner the matter is taken in hand by those most competent to deal with it the better.
