Abstract
IN 1899 Mrs. Morris K. Jesup generously provided the means for a study of the Arapaho Indians, and Dr. Alfred L. Kroeber was entrusted with the work; his general description of the Arapaho and of their decorative art and symbolism recently published in the Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History (vol. xviii. pp. 1-150, 1902) proves how well he acquitted himself of his task. Dr. Kroeber now has charge of the anthropological department of the University of California, and we may expect much good work from him in the future in this new field.
