 was born in New York in 1871. When 

 quite young he was placed in the hands 

 of private tutors, and eventually entered 

 upon the study of medicine, but 

 pharmacy being more attractive, in 

 1887 he entered the pharmacy of T. E. 

 Fraser. His services were so well ap- 

 preciated that in 1893 he was appointed 

 to the management of Mr. Fraser's 

 pharmacy, 29th street and 8th avenue, 

 New York. In 1893 Mr. Gies entered 

 the C. P. C. N. Y., where he became a

 ating in 1895. He was elected Presi- 

 dent of the first Post- Graduate Class and 

 took his degree as Doctor of Pharmacy 

 in '96. 



Popular with professors and stu- 

 dents, he is also an active worker 

 in the Alumni Association, his musical 

 ability and genial disposition having 



done much to promote the growing in- 

 terest the members of that Association 

 are evidencing. His fine presence and 

 courteous manner, combined with his 

 abilities as a pharmacist, are sure to 

 bring success to him in the handsome 

 pharmacy which he occupies at 28th street 

 and 3d avenue.
