Excerpt from Bulletin of the Pennsylvania Museum, Vol. 15: October, 1917 It is with the most Sincere pleasure that the Museum Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Pennsylvania Museum is able to announce the arrival of the new Director, Mr. Langdon Warner, who entered upon his functions on October first. Mr. Warner was highly recommended for the position by the former president of Harvard University, Charles W. Eliot, and by Dean Briggs of the same university. He recently has been connected with the Cleveland Museum, the Smith sohian Institution and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, for which institutions he conducted scientific researches in Asia, and was also appointed Director Of the proposed School Of Archaeology in Peking. While he has specialized in Oriental Art, he is a man of broad artistic sympathies, whose energy and personality cannot fail to make a strong impression upon the work of the Pennsylvania Museum with distinct benefit to the community. An opportunity will be given the friends of the Museum to meet Mr. And Mrs. Langdon Warner at a reception to be given in their honor at Memorial Hall on Wednesday, November 2lst, from 4 to 6.
