SOCIETY MEETINGS. 
KEYSTONE VETERINARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION. 
The meeting of this Association was called to order at 
heir new quarters on the northwest corner of Broad and 
Filbert Streets, by President J. R. Hart, at 8:00 P. M., Tues¬ 
day evening, November 12th, with the following attendance: 
T. B. Rayner, W. S. Kooker, B. Rayner, J. R. Hart, C. Lintz, 
F. Bridge, J. T. McAnulby, W. H. Hoskins, and W. L. Rhoads. 
Dr. Hoskins, as Chairman of the Legislative Committee, 
reported that the State Board of Veterinary Medical Exam- 
ners would meet at Harrisburg on the 13th for the purpose 
Df organizing, the Governor having made the following ap¬ 
pointments: Dr. W. H. Hoskins and C. J. J. Harger, both 
of Philadelphia, for three years; Drs. J. C. McNeil, of Pitts¬ 
burg, and H. Walters, of Wilkesbarre, for two years, and 
Dr. J. W. Sallade, of Pottsville, for one year. 
The question of the Board accepting the diploma of any 
school as sufficient without an examination by the Board was 
broached, and very vigorously protested against, as the Board 
would be thus shirking their duty and evading the law. It 
was moved and unanimously adopted as the sense of this As¬ 
sociation, that all who wish to locate within Pennsylvania 
to practice veterinary medicine must pass the examination of 
the Board.
