The meeting, lecture and exhibition hallsare shown in Fig. 2 as extending up through thesecond floor, but the laboratories and other partsof the building would be divided into severalstories of ordinary height. The laboratories mayof course be devoted to any desired field of re-search, and the designations are merely intended *to suggest that one of these be in the physical andthe other in the biological sciences.]139. 140
