Proceedings of the Wisconsin Natural History Society.

Thursday, March 29, 1900. 
Twenty-eight persons attended this meeting which was held 
as usual in the museum lecture room. President Peckham 
occupied the chair. 
Messrs. A. F. Laue and Chas. Knopf were made ordinary 
members of the society and Mr. H. P. Hamilton of Two Rivers, 
Wis., a corresponding member. 
The resignation of Mr. Armin Neitzke from membership was 
accepted. 
A motion made by Chas. E. Monroe that the quarterly bul- 
letin be henceforth mailed to all members was carried. 
The attention of the society was called to the fact that all 
members who contemplated reading papers at any of the meet- 
ings should notify the secretary, and dates would be assigned 
them in the order in w^hich the notifications were received. 
Mr. C. E. Monroe then read an interesting paper of a popular 
character — entitled ''Geological Rambles." The leading points of 
interest to the geologist in Milwaukee and Ozaukee counties were 
touched upon, and the principal fossils noted, and their geological 
significance detailed. Certain quarries and exposures in the 
vicinity of Port Washington were considered at some length, also 
the bluff moraines bordering on the lake between Mequon and 
Cudahy. Evidence was also given in support of the theory that 
the basins now occupied by Lake Michigan and the other Great 
Lakes were once occupied by the ocean.
