PROFESSOR H. H. RUSBY, ELECTED PRESIDENT OF 

 AMERICAN PHARMACEUTICAL ASSOCIATION. 



The first election of A. Ph. A. to 

 be held by mail vote, has resulted 

 in the election of Professor H. H. 

 Rusby as president by a plurality 

 of eleven. Many of the letters 

 received by General Secretary Ca- 

 spar!, stated that they were favor- 

 able to the election of officers by 

 mail, this method being free from 

 the wire pulling and back stairs 

 politcs of the old method of electing 

 officers. 



Professor Caspari thinks that the 

 method will be retained, and that 

 the next election will bring out a 

 much larger vote. 



PROF. I-I. H. RUSBY.
