THE NEW YORK JOURNAL OF PHARMACY 



paratively speaking it does not now exist. 

 The vicious mercenary institutions of 

 which I have previously spoken must of 

 necessity cut their own throats and bring 

 about their own deserved destruction. 



As the final result of the recent 

 awakening of the stimulus enhancing a 

 niore liberal general education to the 



populace at large in association with the 

 remarkable advances made within the 

 last few years along the lines of medical 

 education and research, dogma can no 

 longer survive ; its place must be taken 

 by something more stable— exact clinical 

 and experimental work, in other words 

 Modern Scientific Medicine. 



Congratulations are in order for J. R. 

 I'otkin, '13. He has taken a fair New 

 [ersey maid as his life-long partner and 

 now resides in Philadelphia, where he 

 represents the P. S. Aseptic Company. 



E. S- Bellis, '13, is "doing time" at 

 M. N. Wordman's Pharmacy in the 

 Bronx. 



V. de Lalla, '04, and wife have just 

 left on a pleasure trip abroad. His 

 store on 674 Bleecker Street, Utica, 

 N. Y., is being managed for him by his 

 brother, M. de Lalla, of the Class 1914. 



Clias. M. Driesen, '11, sold his store 

 at 3517 Broadway to M. Markowitz, '14, 

 and purchased the Peek Drug and Spe- 

 cialty Company. We extend our best 

 wishes for prosperity to Mr. Markowitz 

 in his new enterprise. Mr. Driesen will 

 no doubt make as much of a success in 

 the wholesale business as he has in the 

 retail line. He's a hustler. 



Miss Lillian Leiterman, '11, attended 

 the N. Y. S. Pharmaceutical Association 

 meeting at Saratoga as a delegate from 



the American Women's Pharmaceutical 

 Association. One can easily perceive 

 that women are pushing their way to the 

 front ranks even in the profession of 

 pharmacy. At the N. Y. S. P. A. Con- 

 vention at Saratoga, Prof. Mansfield ex- 

 hibited 165 organic drugs which will be 

 contained in the next Pharmacopoeia. 

 Prizes were awarded to those showing 

 themselves most proficient in identifying 

 them, and Mrs. St. Claire Ransford- 

 Gay, '98, Miss Charlotte G. Ransford 

 and Miss Lillian Leiterman, '11, received 

 first, second and third prizes respectively. 



Mr. A. C. Burnett, '15, has a real 

 summer job on the "Robert Fulton" of 

 the Hudson River Day Line. He has 

 charge of the Lunch Room, Cigar and 

 Candy Service on board that vessel. The 

 "Robert Fulton" was anchored at the 

 finish when the Columbia varsity crew 

 won the boat race at Poughkeepsie on 

 June 27. There was some celebration 

 Mr. Roon was in that crowd. 



N. Bernstein, '15, is resting easily on 

 his new job with S. Elkin, N. Y. C.
