FEES OF LIFE MEMBERS. 
[By the Academy, July 19, 1870, Yol. I, p. 187.] 
Resolved, That the fees from members for life be set apart as a per¬ 
manent endowment fund to be invested in Wisconsin state bonds, or 
other equally safe securities, and that the proceeds of said fund, only, 
be used for the general purposes of the Academy. 
ANNUAL DUES. 
[By the Academy, December 29, 1892, Yol. IX, p. vi .] 
Resolved, That the secretary and treasurer be instructed to strike 
from the list of active members of the Academy the names of all who 
are in arrears in the payment of annual dues, except in those cases 
where, in their judgment, it is desirable to retain such members for a 
longer time. 
ARREARS OF ANNUAL DUES. 
[By the Council, December 29, 1897. ] 
Resolved, That the treasurer be requested to send out the notices of 
annual dues as soon as possible after each annual meeting and to ex¬ 
tend the notice to the second or third time within a period of four 
months where required. 
SECRETARY’S EXPENSES. 
[By the Academy, December 27, 1902.] 
Resolved, That the Academy hereby appropriates the sum of seventy- 
live dollars per annum as an allowance for secretary’s expenses, for 
which a single voucher shall be required. 
Note.— The Printing Commissioners of the State of Wisconsin now require all 
copy to be at hand ready for the printer before the permit for printing shall 
be issued by the Secretary of State. But, under a ruling of the Commissioners, 
made in response to a presentation by the Committee of the Academy appointed 
December 29, 1897, each volume of the Transactions may be issued in two con¬ 
secutive parts; so that a publication may thus be issued each year covering 
the papers accepted after the previous annual meeting.
