Text Appearing Before Image:
f man is exem-plified in this building, andthe chief of the department,Willard A. Smith, is fond ofsaying that his building con-tains everything, from a toytin wagon to a mogul loco-motive, and from a two-lograft to the model of an Atlan-tic liner. The developmentof modern transportation hasbeen so recent and so rapidthat its sio-nificance has beenhardly understood. Alreadyits early history Is in many in-stances fading away or utterlylost. From the beginning Itwas the intention of thisdepartment that it shouldfully and fairly present theorigin, growth and develop-ment of the various methodsof transportation used in allages and in all parts ofthe world. The classificationmay seem to include some things which It is difficult to show Inan Exhibition of this kind, but the object kept In view has beento make so complete the demonstration of the method and meansemployed in every branch of the business of transportation that theearnest student of science may he^-e find everything at his hand
