AMENDED BY-LAWS. 



(June 12, 1916.) 



ARTICLE I. 



MEMBERS. 



Section i. Members shall be of five classes, Annual Members, Corporate 

 Members, Life Members, Patrons, and Honorary Members. 



Sec. 2. Annual members shall consist of such persons as are selected from time 

 to time by the Board of Trustees at any of its meetings, and who shall pay an annual 

 fee of ten dollars ($10.00), payable within thirty days after notice of election, and 

 within thirty days after each recurring annual date. The failure of any person to 

 make such initiatory payment and such annual payments within said time shall, at 

 the option of the Board of Trustees, be sufficient grounds for the forfeiture of an 

 annual membership. 



This said annual membership shall entitle the member to: 

 First. — Free admittance for the member and family, to the Museum on any day. 

 Second. — Ten tickets every year, admitting the bearer to the Museum on pay 

 days. 



Third. — A copy of all publications of the Museum when requested. 

 Fourth. — Invitations to all special exhibits, receptions, lectures, or other func- 

 tions which may be given at the Museum. 



Sec. 3. The Corporate Members shall consist of the persons named in the 

 articles of incorporation, and of such other persons as shall be chosen from time to 

 time by the Board of Trustees at any of its meetings, upon the recommendation of the 

 Executive Committee; provided, that such persons named in the articles of incorpora- 

 tion shall, within ninety days from the adoption of these By-Laws, and persons 

 hereafter chosen as Corporate Members shall, within ninety days of their election, 

 pay into the treasury the sum of twenty dollars ($20.00) or more. The failure of 

 any person to make such payment within said time shall, at the option of the Board 

 of Trustees, be ground for forfeiture of his corporate membership. Corporate 

 Members becoming Life Members, Patrons or Honorary Members shall be exempt 

 from dues. Annual meetings of said Corporate Members shall be held at the same 

 place and on the same day that the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees is held. 

 Sec. 4. Any person paying into the treasury the sum of five hundred dollars 

 ($500.00), at any one time, shall, upon the unanimous vote of the Board, become 

 a Life Member. Life Members shall be exempt from all dues. 



Sec. 5. Patrons shall be chosen by the Board upon recommendation of the 

 Executive Committee from among persons who have rendered eminent service to the 

 Museum. They shall be exempt from all dues, and, by virtue of their election as 

 Patrons, shall also be Corporate Members.
