AmA.Sust,wo5ym'}    Pennsylvania  Pharmaceutical  Association.  397 
Association  formed  the  closing  portion  of  the  president's  address, 
which,  upon  motion  of  Mr.  Lemberger,  was  accepted  and  referred 
to  a  committee  consisting  of  Messrs.  Lackey,  Thomas,  Heck,  Wal- 
lace and  Frailey. 
Professor  Remington  then  addressed  the  meeting  upon  the  sub- 
ject of  the  new  Pharmacopoeia,  a  copy  of  which  he  exhibited  as 
being  an  advance  copy  of  the  first  edition  which  would  be  out  in 
several  weeks.  He  described  many  of  the  difficulties  which  the 
Revision  Committee  have  labored  under,  which  have  contributed  to 
delay  the  completion  of  the  work,  and  described  some  of  the  points 
of  difference  between  the  old  and  the  new  editions  and  referred  to 
the  various  styles  of  binding  in  which  it  would  be  issued. 
On  Wednesday  morning  the  Association  convened  at  10  o'clock 
and  the  reading  of  the  minutes  of  the  previous  meeting  was  followed 
by  the  sending  of  congratulatory  messages  to  the  other  State  Asso- 
ciations which  were  in  session  at  the  same  time.  The  Committee 
on  Time  and  Place  of  Next  Meeting  then  reported  in  favor  of  Glen 
Summit,  near  Wilkesbarre,  June  26,  27,  28,  1906,  which  report  was 
received  and  unanimously  adopted.  The  reports  of  delegates  to 
other  associations  were  then  heard,  after  which  the  chairman  of  the 
Committee  on  Papers  and  Queries  took  charge  and  the  reading  of 
papers  was  begun. 
The  first  paper  read  was  "  The  Awakening  of  the  Pharmacist," 
by  B.  E.  Pritchard,  and  was  followed  by  three  papers  in  answer  to 
Query  No.  17,  "  Is  the  N.A.R.D.  a  Scheme  to  Get  Something  for 
Nothing?"  by  W.  O.  Frailey,  J.  Leyden  White  and  T.  H.  Potts. 
These  papers  elicited  a  discussion  which  lasted  during  the  remainder 
of  this  session,  in  which  many  of  the  statements  were  warmly  de- 
bated. The  discussion  was  participated  in  by  Messrs.  Redsecker, 
Emanuel,  Lowe,  Apple,  Rehfuss,  Millener,  W.  F.  Horn,  Pritchard, 
Mclntyre,  Walton  and  Wray. 
The  second  session  on  Wednesday  was  opened  at  3  p.m.  and  after 
hearing  a  long  report  from  Mr.  M.  N.  Kline,  the  delegate  to  the 
N.W.D.A.  and  the  Proprietors'  Association,  the  reading  of  papers 
was  again  resumed.  The  first  paper  read  at  this  session  was  entitled 
"  Rules  for  Prescription  Filling,"  by  E.  F.  Cook,  and  was  read  by 
Dr.  C.  B.  Lowe,  in  the  absence  of  the  author.  This  paper  was  dis- 
cussed by  Mr.  H.  C.  Blair,  who  described  the  method  of  filling  and 
checking  prescriptions  which  has  been  in  use  in  his  store  for  so 
many  years.
