The president then delivered his an- 

 nual address which was as follows : 

 To the Alumni Association of'thc College 

 of Pha> macy of the City of New Yo> k: 



Eadies and Gentlemen -The constitu- 

 tion rightly imposes on its president the 



task of preparing an annual message and 

 submitting it at this meeting. To-day 

 I wish briefly to review the work done 

 during the past year, and to make a few 

 recommendations for the future. There 

 were held last year four Executive Board 

 meetings, at which all the business 

 of the Association was transacted, and 

 five regular meetings at which 22 new 

 members were elected, and five lectures 

 w T ere given. It is needless to mention 

 that the course of lectures was a com- 

 plete success. 



A summer outing was also held in 

 June, at Peteler's, at New Dorp, Staten 

 Island, which was quite a success, and, 

 although well attended in comparison 

 with the attendance of lormer years, I 

 would suggest that more of our mem- 

 bers make use of this occasion to become 

 better acquainted with one another. 



The Alumni Journal has, thanks to 

 its efficient management and able edit- 

 ing, been a potent factor for the welfare 

 of our Association, and the advancement 

 of the interests of the college. Each 

 number contained original papers from 

 prominent scientists, and its students' 

 columns have been read with great pleas- 

 ure and satisfaction by its subscribers. 



It has been a success from the start, 

 and deserves the support of every student 

 and alumnus of the college. I wish 

 especially to mention the importance of 

 The Alumni Journal as the means 

 of making people acquainted with 

 our college, and in keeping up the inter, 

 est of those who have graduated from 

 here, which in most cases dies out in a 

 few years without some continual stimu- 

 lus as The Journal has proven to be. 

 Every student who is a subscriber, be- 

 comes a centre ot information on matters 

 pertaining to the college, which can only 

 react to the benefit of his Alma Mater. 



A course of lectures to the senior class, 

 on "First Aids to the Injured" should be
