acting as editor until January, 1899, when 

 excessive duties compelled him to resign 

 in favor of Chas. W. Bjorkwall, who 

 guided the Journal until January, 1900. 

 From this time until April, 1901, the 

 management devolved upon Harry B. 

 Ferguson. He was then relieved by Dr. 

 Jelliffe, who again took up the manage- 

 ment until April, 1903, when the present 

 editor^ was placed in charge." Alumni

"In 1852 the New York College of 

 Pharmacy Association authorized the 

 publication of The N. Y. Journal of 

 Pharmacy as its official organ. This 

 was issued monthly for two^ years, but 

 failing of support it was discontinued. 



"In 1894 the Alumni Association of 

 the College began the publication of The 

 Almnni Journal. In 1897 the name was 

 changed to The Journal of Pharma- 

 cology, and it was published under this 

 latter name until May 8, 1904, when pub- 

 lication was suspended until the follow- 

 ing December,* when it again appeared 

 under its original name. The Alumni 

 Journal. But three subsequent numbers 

 were issued in January, February and 

 July, 1905,5 when the attempt to issue 

 it was abandoned by the editor." Alum- 

 ni Journal, v. 13, 1906, pp. 153-4. 



From this time (1906) the history 

 should continue as follows : 



1906 to 191 1 (vols. 13-18) the official 

 organ of the C. of P. alumni was edited 

 under the title of The Alumni Journal 

 by "Chas. A. Lotz and various associate 

 editors. In 1912 (vol. 19) Dr. Curt P. 



Wimmer became editor-in-chief with 

 Mr. Lotz as business manager. In 19 14 

 (vol. 21) Dr. Wimmer assumed the 

 editorship alone (Mr. Lotz, on account 

 of other interests, being obliged to drop 

 out). The name was changed to The 

 New York Journal of Pharmacy, and a 

 new series of volume numbers was insti- 

 tuted. From lack of support on the part 

 of the alumni, which is revealed to one 

 reading through the files of their official 

 organ as a chronic state of affairs, Dr. 

 Wimmer felt obliged to give it up with 

 the eleventh number of his second vol- 

 umes, so that the December number was 

 never published. Jeannot Hostmann 

 was appointed editor for 1916. The 

 name was then changed to C. U. C. P. 

 Alumni Journal, and the volume num- 

 bering of the first series was resumed.
