tained  by  the  local  pharmacists  headed  by  Professor  John  Uri  Lloyd. 
In  regard  to  the  meeting  Dr.  Lowe  said  that  one  very  practical 
suggestion  of  President  Day  was  that  the  secretaries  of  the  different 
State  Pharmaceutical  Associations  be  invited  to  meet  at  the  annual 
convention  of  the  A. Ph. A.  to  discuss  practical  plans  for  increasing 
the  efficiency  of  the  state  associations.  He  also  commented  on  the 
work  which  was  done  at  the  meeting  but  as  an  extended  account  has 
already  appeared  in  this  Journal  for  September,  the  report  is  not 
given  in  further  detail.  Among  the  officers  of  the  association  for  the 
ensuing  year  are  several  members  of  the  college  including  George  M. 
Beringer,  President;  Franklin  M.  Apple,  First  Vice-President;  and 
E.  Fullerton  Cook,  Chairman  of  the  section  on  Pharmacopoeias  and 
Formularies. 
Professor  Kraemer  read  a  somewhat  extended  report  on  the 
problems  connected  with  pharmaceutical  education  which  were  pre- 
sented at  the  Nashville  meeting.  The  purpose  of  this  report,  as  was 
stated,  was  to  crystallize  out  in  some  concrete  form  not  only  the 
nature  of  the  work  which  was  done  but  to  indicate  what  was  thought 
should  be  the  proper  attitude  of  the  college  in  regard  to  the  various 
questions  which  require  more  or  less  immediate  attention. 
In  regard  to  the  alumni  dinner  at  the  Hotel .  Maxwell  Professor 
Kraemer  said  that  this  was  among  the  most  pleasing  events  of  the 
meeting.  It  was  an  occasion  which  served  not  only  to  unite  our  mem- 
bers but  to  show  the  members  from  the  various  sections  of  the  coun- 
try that  each  one  had  a  duty  to  perform  if  the  college  was  to  maintain 
its  prestige  and  reputation.  Our  Dean,  Professor  Remington  ('66), 
presided  and  brief  speeches  were  made  by  nearly  all  of  those  in 
attendance.  Among  those  present  may  be  mentioned  Dr.  John  F. 
Hancock,  Professor  J.  U.  Lloyd,  Professor  C.  Lewis  Diehl,  Professor
