would be a poor, sordid fulfillment to look forward to. We want victory so that 

 liberty will be secure everywhere ; so that all nations will know their rights 

 and that there will be such a compact between the principal nations of the earth 

 that the rights of all nations will be respected ; that people everywhere will be 

 permitted to work out their own destinies, according to their own traditions and 

 national impulses. We want this victory so that we may re-establish justice, the 

 justice that promotes civilization, that makes us free, gives us fairer, broader 

 opportunities before the law and among our fellows. That is why we want 

 victory. That is why victory must come. I am certain that ultimately there 

 can be only one conclusion to this struggle and that those principles which we 

 have always regarded as the right and pure ones must prevail throughout the 

 earth. To this great object, to this one purpose each and every one of us 

 in his way, be it great or small, must eternally dedicate himself. 



The Alumni Association prizes were awarded by President Monroe H. Weil 

 to the following: Miss Selma Temliak, Gold Medal and Philip Tishber, Silver 

 Medal. The winner of the Bronze Medal, Mr. Nathan Miller, was not present to 

 receive the same. Mr. Miller received his call to report at Fort Oglethorpe on 

 the morning of Commencement Day. 



After reading the roll of honor students (see page 78), Prof. John T. Ken- 

 nedy awarded the J. Leon Lascoff prizes. 



Prof. Curt P. Wimmer then awarded the Trustees' Special Prizes of $100.00 

 each to the following successful candidates : Pharmacy, Mr. George Andrew 

 Schumann ; Materia Medica, Miss Pauline A. Reiter ; Chemistry, Mr. Jacob 

 Sugarman, Mr. Edward Yanket and Mr. Henry Rosenberg occupying the firi^t 

 and second places on the first year class Roll of Honor, received the Trustees' 

 Second Year Scholarships. 



Prof. Jeannot Hostmann spoke as follows : Insofar that this is the first 

 awarding of the Edward R. Squibb and Joseph Weinstein prizes I will burden 

 you with a few explanatory remarks concerning them. 



Fifty years ago Dr. Edward R. Squibb was Professor of Pharmacy in our 

 institution. At the same time and for many years after he was engaged in the 

 manufacture of high grade pharmaceutical chemicals. Dr. Squibb was a pioneer 

 in his line. The output of his factory was standardized many years before 

 purity rubrics were introduced into the Pharmacopoeia. 



During the past scholastic year Mr. Theodore Weicker a graduate of our 

 college and a member of the Board of Trustees informed the latter that the 

 firm of Edward R. Squibb & Sons of which he is a member wished to offer 

 annually a prize of $100.00 to that student most proficient in practical analytical 

 chemistry. This prize, it now becomes my pleasant duty to award to Miss 

 Selma Temliak. 



Joseph Weinstein received the degree of Doctor of Pharmacy in Columbia 

 University in 1906. Devoting his time to the practice of clinical chemistry, he 

 was ever actively interested in everything that was of benefit to retail pharmacy 

 or his alma mater.
