On  motion,  a  ballot  was  ordered,  Messrs.  Frohrein  and 
Green  acting  as  tellers,  who  reported  the  unanimous  election 
of  the  candidates. 
The  amendment  to  the  Constitution,  notice  of  which  was 
given  at  the  first  session,  and  which  contemplates  the  estab- 
lishment of  the  finances  of  the  Association  on  a  sound  basis, 
was  called  up,  pending  the  consideration  of  which  Prof.  Maisch 
offered  the  following,  seconded  by  Prof.  Parrish : 
Resolved,  That  the  subject  of  the  financial  affairs  of  this 
Association  be  referred  to  a  committee  consisting  of  the  Treasu- 
rer, the  ex- Treasurers  present  at  this  meeting,  the  Chairmen  of 
the  Business  Committee  and  of  the  Executive  Committee,  to 
report  at  a  futare  session. 
The  vote  being  taken,  a  division  was  called  for,  when  18 
votes  were  cast  in  the  affirmative,  and  14  in  the  negative,  and 
the  resolution  carried. 
The  following  amendment  to  the  Constitution,  notice  of 
which  was  given  at  the  second  meeting,  was  brought  forward  : 
Whereas,  The  Constitution  now  contains  no  provision  for  the  member- 
ship of  those  teachers  of  pharmacy  and  chemistry  who,  as  lecturers  in 
the  various  colleges  of  pharmacy,  or  as  teachers  in  any  other  way,  have  a 
close  interest  in  the  objects  and  designs  of  the  Association,  therefore, 
Resolved,  That  Article  II.  Section  1  be  amended  by  adding  after  the 
word  "another"  the  words  "  and  those  teachers  of  pharmacy,  chemistry 
and  botany  who  may  be  specially  interested  in  pharmacy  and  materia 
medica."    The  section  will  then  read  as  follows  : 
Section  1.  Every  pharmaceutist  and  druggist  of  good  moral  and  pro- 
fessional standing,  whether  in  business  on  his  own  account,  retired  from 
business,  or  employed  by  another,  and  those  teachers  of  pharmacy,  chem- 
istry, and  botany,  who  may  be  specially  interested  in  pharmacy  and  ma- 
teria medica,  who,  after  duly  considering  the  objects  of  the  Association 
and  the  obligations  of  the  Constitution,  are  willing  to  subscribe  to  them, 
are  eligible  to  membership. 
On  motion,  the  resolution  was  adopted  without  dissent. 
Prof.  Parrish  read  the  report  of  the  Committee  on  Queries, 
the  consideration  of  which  was  postponed  for  the  present. 
The  Auditing  Committee  reported  that  they  had  examined 
the  Treasurer's  accounts,  and  found  them  correct.  The  report 
was  adopted  and  the  Committee  discharged. 
The  reading  of  special  reports  being  called  up,  the  subjects
