nstruments. This model, unlike
others that were on exhibition at the World's Fair, was in working
order, and all the recording instruments were continually kept in motion
by the head mechanic of the Manila central observatory.

The work in the meteorological station consisted principally in taking
two daily observations of Green's mercurial barometer, of the maximum
and minimum temperature of the psychrometer, of the direction of the
winds and of the clouds and also the amount of rainfall.

The educational exhibit was installed in a large, well-lighted building
which was a diminished model of the Manila Cathedral. Central walls and
alcoves, covered with green burlap, were erected to give wall space, and
220 square meters of space were thus provided. In preparing the exhibit,
the first step was to enlist the cooperation of the American and
Filipino teachers in the Government schools, about 2,000 in number, and
as many as possible of the teachers of private schools. To this end,
circulars were sent to every American teacher, and visits were made to
the school divisions near Manila. Supplies of school materials, uniform
paper for written work, etc., were sent by the bureau of education,
which gave every assistance possible to schools that requested such
material. Letters were written to a number of educators in America
requesting personal expressions as to what they would find most
interesting in a Philippine educational exhibit. In response many
helpful suggestions were received.

The educational exhibit known as "Department A," of the Philippine
exposition board, contained collections sent by 438 exhibitors and
consisted of 8,542 exhibits.

Labels of various sizes were freely used to give visitors information
regarding collections and conditions of school work in the Philippines,
particularly where these conditions differed from those of the United
States.

Written work was displayed in flat-top wall cases arranged according to
school divisions, some of the typical work being shown open under glass.
These cases were arranged so that they might have been opened without
disturbing the displayed work to give access to other written work of
the division.

The industrial exhibits and photographs filled 30 glazed show cases and
the wall space around these cases and were arranged by school divisions.
These show cases varied in size from one-half to 7 cubic meters. The
list of awards contained eight grand prizes, as follo
