only  returning  Philadelphia  soldier  was  W.  Seimon,  a  graduate  of 
the  class  of  191 1,  who  volunteered  early  in  the  war  and  had  seen 
active  service  abroad  for  over  a  year. 
The  college  is  preparing  to  do  its  share  in  helping  discharged 
soldiers  and  sailors  to  locate  themselves  in  the  drug  business  or 
in  some  other  civilian  line  of  activity.  A  committee  of  the  college 
under  the  chairmanship  of  Prof.  Freeman  P.  Stroup  is  actively 
engaged  in  this  service. 
It  has  been  proposed  that  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy 
shall  present  to  each  student  and  alumnus  who  has  served  in  the 
army  or  navy  in  the  World  War  a  suitably  designed  bronze  medal 
as  an  evidence  of  appreciation  for  his  services  in  behalf  of  the 
nation  and  as  a  token  of  honor  and  distinction.
