 honest and ennobling. We hope that this public recognition of 

 their merit will always be to them an incentive to further efforts and 

 that they will attack and solve the nmnerous problems of life with 

 as much energy and persistence as they have manifested in the 

 pursuit of their studies. To that end, they have our hearty well 

 wishes. (Applause.)

AWARDING THE ALUMNI PRIZES. 



President of the Alumni Association — H. A. Herold, Ph. G. 



Dr. Chandler: The Alumni Prizes will now be awarded by the 

 President of the Alumni Association, Mr. H. A. Herold. 



Mr. Herold: Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: 



About fifteen years ago I sat here among the students. In those 

 days, as the names of the graduates were called, each was handed 

 a dummy diploma; a sheet of foolscap rolled U]) and tied with baby 

 blue ribbon. Since the passage of the pure food and drug law% how- 

 ever, the dummy diplomas have been discontinued. 



I have the very agreeable task this evening of awarding the 

 Alumni Prizes. The Alumni Association of the College of Phar- 

 macy was formed to promote good fellowship among the graduates 

 and to advance the science and art of pharmacy. 



As a stimulant to effort and in recognition of success, we annual- 

 ly award prizes to the three men having the highest percentage on 

 the Roll of Honor. 



I have the honor of awarding the first prize, a gold medal to Mr. 

 Siegfried Tow, who heads the roll with a percentage of 93.04 and 

 the second prize a silver medal to his brother, Mr. Nicholas Tow. 



Mr. Siegfried Tow and his brother Nicholas Tow were the win- 

 ners of the ist and 2nd prizes in their Junior year. 



The third prize, a bronze medal, is awarded to Mr. Leon J. 

 Lindsley. 



Take them, gentlemen, with the best wishes of the Association. 

 They are a token of the greater successes, I am confident, you 

 will win in the future. 



Success, gentlemen, is a coquette. But the coquette never lived 

 who was not won by some man. To win her requires brains and 

 brawn, energy and ambition. 



Put your brains and energy in your profession and do not forget 

 to label the product. 



Success must be won by traveling certain 1)eaten paths. The 

 paths of honor and courage, qualities that in the words of the 

 great French Cardinal "eagle-plume men's souls," are essential.
