Before entering the Museum one notices the “‘Bench Mark” estab- 
lished by the U. 8S. Geological Survey in 1911 on which is 
inscribed the latitude and longitude, 40° 46’ 47.17” N.., 
73° 58’ 41” W., and height above sea level, 86 feet. 
On the right is a “‘pothole”’ from Russell, St. Lawrence Co., N. Y., 
Glacial formed by an eddy in the waters of a stream beneath the 
Pothole melting ice of the glacier that covered Northern New York. 
The stream carried pebbles that, whirled around by the eddy, cut and 
ground this hole, which is two feet across and four feet deep. 
On the left is a large slab of fossiliferous limestone from Kelleys 
Glacial Island in Lake Erie near Sandusky, whose surface has been 
Grooves smoothed, grooved and scratched by the stones and sand 
in the bottom of the vast moving ice sheet or glacier that covered the 
northeastern part of North America during the Glacial Epoch. 
The Information Bureau and the Visitors’ Room are on either side of 
the south entrance. Wheel chairs for children or adults are available 
without charge. Postcards, photographs, guide leaflets, and Museum 
Visitors’ publications of various sorts are for sale, and visitors may 
Room arrange to meet friends here. On the right and left of the 
entrance are small Assembly Halls in which lectures to classes from the 
public schools of the City are given and where the New York Academy of 
Sciences and other scientific societies hold their meetings.
