This will be the first annual commence- 

 ment of Post Gradiiate Co7irse. 



It is expected that a very large class

 mittee after May ist. 



Our readers will regret, that pressure 

 of other duties has rendered it necessary 

 for Mr. Fred. Hohenthal, Ph.G., to re- 

 sign his position as Editor. We are all in- 

 debted to him for the ability with which 

 he has conducted the work, andh is will- 

 ingness to help the Alumni on every 

 occasion, and we trust he will still con- 

 tinue to lend his aid in the good cause. 



In cheerful compliance with the flat- 

 tering unanimity of your Committee, 

 that he should do so, the Editor, pro. 

 tem. undertakes to relieve them in an 

 emergency and endeavor to conduct 

 this department of the Journal, so as to 

 make it worthy of the Alumni, and of our 

 College. Fully occupied with his daily 

 duties, and also holding honorary offices 

 for the advancement of pharmacy and 

 allied subjects, this means further sacrifice 

 of duties to his family, and burning the 

 midnight oil, and as "all work and no 

 play; makes a dull boy," he assumes the 

 office temporarily, to ascertain to what 

 extent such sacrifice is necessary. Al- 

 ways devoted to the interests of his 

 younger friends and fellow students, if 

 his labors as an amateur in the cause, 

 are of service to them, without danger to 

 himself, he is willing to make the experi- 

 ment, relying upon the hearty co-opera- 

 tion and assistance of those who are will- 

 ing to be associated with him in the 

 work. 



"Content if hence th' unlearn'd their wants may 



view, 

 The learn'd reflect on what before they knew." 



The new prospectus of the College for 

 1896 — '97, will be issued about June ist. 



Every person who knows him, and 

 especially those associated with our Col- 

 lege, will rejoice that Professor Chandler 

 is making rapid recovery from the surgi- 

 cal operation recently undergone.
