Corps  of  the  U.  S.  Navy.  Also  that  the  Association  approve  of  the 
efforts  to  secure  improved  pharmaceutical  service  and  recognition 
for  pharmacy  in  the  Public  Health  Service.  These  several  recom- 
mendations of  the  committee  and  of  the  president  harmonized  and 
were  adopted  by  the  Association. 
Another  recommendation  adopted  in  a  somewhat  modified  form 
provides  that  the  mail  ballots  in  the  future  contain  opposite  to  each 
candidate's  name  his  address  and  vocation. 
Other  recommendations  adopted  provide  for  the  election  of  an 
executive  committee  of  the  council  and  as  one  of  the  first  duties  of 
said  committee  the  searching  of  the  presidential  addresses  for  the 
past  ten  years  for  pertinent  suggestions  that  have  been  overlooked 
and  which  are  of  present  value  and  importance. 
The  weather  throughout  the  week  was  enjoyable,  being  free  from 
excessive  temperature,  humidity  or  severe  storms  and  this  un- 
doubtedly added  greatly  to  the  enjoyment  of  the  visitors  and  the 
spirit  that  marked  every  occasion.  The  entertainments  were  varied, 
including  vaudeville  entertainment,  auto  ride  to  the  Botanical  Gar- 
dens and  Museum  in  the  Bronx  and  to  other  points  of  interest,  the 
Alumni  Luncheon,  a  composite  function  participated  in  by  the 
alumni  of  all  the  schools  represented  with  friends  and  relatives  in 
attendance,  a  boat  ride  up  the  Hudson  and  then  to  Coney  Island  with 
a  coupon  ticket  to  many  of  the  amusements  and  this  topped  by  a 
shore  dinner  at  the  Balconnades  in  Luna  Park. 
The  local  committee  spared  neither  effort  nor  expense  in  their 
endeavor  to  make  this  the  greatest  and  most  enjoyable  meeting  of 
the  A.  Ph.  A.  and  their  excellent  arrangements  for  both  meetings  and 
pleasures  added  materially  in  assuring  both  comfort  and  benefit  for 
all  who  were  fortunate  enough  to  attend.  The  sixty-seventh  meet- 
ing of  the  American  Pharmaceutical  Association  was  certainly  a 
memorable  event  in  the  history  of  American  pharmacy  and  must 
have  a  telling  effect  in  its  future  advancement. 
It  was  determined  to  hold  the  next  meeting  in  Washington  dur- 
ing the  first  week  in  May  and  just  prior  to  the  United  States  Phar- 
macopceial  Convention.
