Germanic Museum Opening.

The mounting of the objects bought thus far for the Germanic Museum has now practically been completed, and the Museum will be open on Thursdays after the Christmas recess: the hours during which it will be open have not as yet been determined, but will be announced later in the University Calendar.

Professor Kuno Francke, Curator of the Museum, has recently been notified of two valuable additions to the present collection which are now on their way to Cambridge. The first of these, from the Swiss National Museum at Zurich, is the figure of a Swiss Warrior of the sixteenth century from a fountain at Schaffhausen, and is the first installment of the gift of the Swiss government; the second is a plaster cast of the Tomb of Henry the Lion and his wife at Braunschweig, probably the finest sepulchral monument of the twelfth century, and is the gift of Mr. Arthur P. Schmidt, of Boston.
