136 THE ALUMNI JOURNAL 



continue to maintain their position in the ranks of professional men. 

 This will raise the prestige of the college and prove a lasting benefit 

 to it in the end. And lastly, each individual member of the Alumni 

 Association, by constantly striving to make his own professional career 

 an exemplary one and working zealously for the uplifting and better- 

 ment of pharmacy, is able to promote the interests of the college, for 

 this, more than any other one thing, will prove to the prospective 

 student that the New York College of Pharmacy stands in the front 

 rank among all the schools of pharmacy in the United States to-day. 



N. Y. C. P. MEN AT THE A. D. S. CONVENTION. 

 By Nelson S. Kirk, '94. 



Just about the time I thought I would fall down in "copy" the 

 A. D. S. Convention furnished enough material to fill the Alumni 

 Journal. The "Benzol Ring" was much in evidence, and I wish I 

 could tell you about all the N. Y. C. P. graduates I had the pleasure 

 of greeting. "Little" Fendler, he of pugilistic fame in '94, came in 

 from the Pacific Coast, where in his capacity of M. D. he has been 

 in the employ of Seabury & Johnson. His friends all knew him and 

 regretted that Max Auerbach was not about, that the second chapter 

 of that famous 23rd Street episode might be continued. 



Peter Ehrgott, '94, graced the Convention with his presence, and 

 seemed to enjoy every minute of it. Pete has filled out some, and 

 looks nearly as handsome as Fred Hiltz did in the studious days. 



Bruno Dauscha, '94, with his Van Dyke beard, lent dignity to the 

 occasional soirees that were held and enjoyed. 



Dave Westheimer, '95, was with us, and game through all the 

 proceedings. As a connoisseur he classes favorably with Fred Linnig. 

 If you think there is no humor in Brooklyn, peruse what I found 

 posted in the laboratory of one of "Our Boys :" 



Is your hearing as good in a toiler factory as it is in a deaf and 

 dumb asylum ? 



If not, why so? 



Can you eat anything, or does the silverware disagree with 

 you ? 



Are vou troubled with cold feet 

 Whose ?
