APPLICATIONS FOR REGISTRATION. 
The application of Messrs. A. H. Gillman and J. Fitzpatrick were deferred 
for further information.

the Society of Apothecaries, London, was refused, as the certificate is not recog- 
nised by regulation, and until these were altered the Board had no power to 
accept it. 
RECIPROCITY WITH THE PHARMACEUTICAL SOCIETY OE NEW

A letter was read from the secretary of the Pharmaceutical Society of New

Zealand to the Pharmacy Society of New South Wales in November, 1884, had 
met with no answer.

can be made.
