THE NEW YORK JOURNAL OF PHARMACY 



is alike the last word of ethical phil- 

 osophy and the" supreme appeal of 

 Christian morals. The enrichment and 

 the development of the individual, in 

 order, not that he may acquire, but 

 that he may give ; in order, not that 

 he may antagonize, but that he may 

 conciliate ; in order, not that he may 

 overcome and trample under foot, but 

 that he may help and serve — this, as 

 distinguished from the philosophy of 



disorder on the one hand and the phil- 

 osophy of stagnation on the other, I 

 call the constructive philosophy of the 

 institutional life. It is built upon 

 human individuality as a cornerstone 

 and a foundation. The higher and 

 loftier the structure rises, the more 

 plainly it points upward, the heavier 

 is the burden that the foundation bears 

 " and the greater is its service to God 

 and to man. 



The work of preparing the prospec- 

 tus of the college for the Session 1914- 

 15 is now practically completed. A 

 number of changes have been made. 

 The booklet will be ready for distribu- 

 tion about July ist, 1914. 



Graduates are again requested to call 

 for their diplomas, or, upon written 

 notice, the sheepskins will be mailed. 

 The trustees have again reduced the 

 mortgage on our College building. 

 $5000 more have been ordered paid ofif. 



At this writing we have a registra- 

 tion of about 100 students, which is 50 

 more than last year at this time. This 

 points to extraordiiiarily large classes. 

 Our course for the degree of Doctor 

 of Pharmacy (the third year course) 

 will be given for the last time this 

 coming session. Holders of the degree 

 of Ph. C. or of an equivalent degree are 

 eligible. After the coming session, it 

 will take six years to get the Phar. D. 



Extensive alterations are jjeing made 

 in the Dispensing Laboratory. The 

 botanical specimens now kept there 

 will be removed and new desks ac- 

 commodating 120 students will be 

 placed. Electric light will be installed. 

 The lecture platform will be on the 

 west wall of the room. 



Electric lights will also be installed 

 in the office, the main hall and base- 

 ment. 



In the Microscopical Laboratory, 

 1 1000 slides of cross sections, longi- 

 tudinal sections and of powdered drugs 

 are l^eing prepared. These will consti- 

 tute a complete slide librar}^ as they 

 contain samples of all of the U. S. P. 

 and N. F. crude drugs. 15 new 

 microscopes lave been added to the 

 equipment. All of the botanical and 

 physiological charts have been dupli- 

 cated so that one of each may be dis- 

 played on each side of the lecture 

 room.
