Place of Meeting. 
It was stated by the Secretary that no reply could be ex- 
pected to the application made to the Pharmacy Board, for the 
use of their rooms for the accommodation of the School of 
Pharmacy classes, until the next meeting of that body, on 
April 21, and it was agreed to leave the matter in the Sec- 
retary's hands. 
Apparatus. 
The Secretary stated that he had received a letter from Mr. 
Denham, the lecturer on Pharmacy, asking that certain appa- 
ratus (as per list appended) should be supplied for the use of 
his class, and, after some conversation on the subject, Mr. 
Field moved, and Mr. Ayscough seconded, “that the Society 
provide the apparatus required at a cost not exceeding ten 
pounds (£10), the apparatus to remain the property of the 
Society.” 
Reports. 
A letter from the Editor of The Chemist and Druggist of 
Australasia was read, offering to make regular announcements 
of the Society’s arrangements and meetings, and discussion 
took place on the subject of the reports of the meetings lately 
published in that journal. Mr. Costin complained that his 
name had been inviduously mentioned in connection with the 
affairs of the West End Pharmacy, and produced a document 
in refutation of the remarks complained of. 
The Secretary stated that the reports complained of were 
not furnished by him, and were not in any way official, when 
it was agreed that it would be advisable for the Secretary to 
furnish reports of the meetings for publication.

firmed, and a discussion of a conversational character took 
place. Mr. Clapperton suggesting that the Editor of The 
Chemist and Druggist of Australasia be asked to publish an 
official report of the Society’s meetings only, but the general 
opinion of the meeting, as expressed by Mr. Clarke, Mary- 
borough, was, that the Editor would not be thus constrained, 
but would publish anything sent to him if suitable for his 
pages. 
Class Rooms. 
The assistant Secretary announced that the Board of Phar- 
macy had granted the use of their rooms for the accommo- 
dation of the classes in connection with the School of Phar- 
macy. 
Mr. Ayscough asked the question “Whether persons outside 
the pale of the profession would be allowed to attend the 
classes of the School of Pharmacy,” which was resolved in the 
affirmative with the addition that they would gladly be re- 
ceived on payment of the fees.
