§ 258. Closing of museum; admission fee during certain hours. The

trustees of any institution supported under this chapter by public

money, in whole or in part, may, so far as consistent with free use by

the public at reasonable or specified hours, close any of its museum

collections at certain other hours, for study, to meet the demands of

special students or for exhibition purposes, and may charge an admission

fee at such hours, provided that all receipts from such fees shall be

paid into the treasury and be used for the maintenance or enlargement of

the institution.
