Revolution of Indian relics, and the exhibit in the Alaska
Building, the latter being the most striking exhibit in the
department. The women had more displays than men, and some of
their work was very creditable, and in some cases was as well
appreciated when placed by the side of that of men; that in one
case it might have been more beneficial in result had it been
separately exhibited, but as a whole I think women were given
due consideration. The proportion of the work performed by women
was not as large in proportion as that performed by the men, but
in the Indian section of which I was a juror I think the awards

conspicuous by their absence. At the same time the names of
several women figure in the catalogue as collaborators in the
installment of archaeological collections. Mrs. Quibbell and Miss

archaeological and historical specimens belonging to the Missouri
Historical Society, but was also instituted as the custodian of
these exhibits.

It is impossible to overrate the value of the services rendered
to the exposition by the special commissioner for history, Miss
Florence Hayward, who not only secured the special exhibit of
the Queen's jubilee presents, but also the exhibits of the
Louisiana State Historical Society, the historical exhibit of
