course  to  educate  students,  graduates  in  pharmacy,  and  others,  in 
such  studies  as  would  qualify  them  for  service  and  work  as  chemists 
under  the  Pure  Food  and  Drugs  Act.  To  carry  out  this  work, 
increased  facilities  must  be  provided — additional  chemical  and  mi- 
croscopical laboratories  thoroughly  equipped  will  be  necessary,  and 
increased  teaching  force  must  be  provided.  Two  special  courses  are 
recommended  :  one  to  equip  students  for  positions  as  chemists  in 
manufacturing  establishments,  the  second  to  equip  students  for 
government  positions  as  food  and  drug  examiners. 
The  suggestions  of  the  Committee  were  favorably  received  and 
generally  discussed.  Further  action  was  postponed  in  order  that 
a  special  meeting  of  the  Board  might  be  called  to  which  the  Faculty 
were  to  be  invited  to  be  present. 
The  Committee  on  Membership  reported  favorably  on  the  appli- 
cation of  Lucius  L.  Walton,  of  Williamsport,  Pa.,  who  was  unani- 
mously elected. 
February  20,  igo7,  Special  Meeting. — The  meeting  was  called  to

tion. Mr.  Beringer  for  the  Committee  read  a  lengthy  report,  giving 
full  details  of  the  proposed  special  courses  to  be  established.  The 
report  was  very  fully  discussed,  many  of  the  members  participating, 
after  which  the  following  resolution  was  adopted :  "  That  the  Com- 
mittee on  Property  be  authorized  to  have  plans  prepared  for  the 
erection  of  a  Laboratory  upon  the  site  of  the  Aimwell  School  prop,
