Oct 17 Saturday London Spent the morning in seeing the splendid Zoological Garden of London. The collec- tion is a large one and all the buildings and grounds are quite kept and clean. The buildings are not elaborate in their archi- tecture nor in the building matter but as a rule the animals have plenty of room. It's only the small animals and the parrots that are confined to small rooms. The apes have an abundance of room in the district of cages and are separated from the public by a front of glass. Their only connection with man is with the Keeper. The wonderful human charac- teristics of the Chimpanzee interests me greatly. Had lunch in the garden and then to the Natural History Museum to get any check which had arrived that day
