ted to  members,  namely,  that  the  gross  receipts  or  income  of  the  College  was

ter, Remington  and  Beriuger.  As  a  result  a  motion  prevailed  to  refer  the  subject

view  of  the  handsome  contribution  of  over  $1,400  toward  the  electric  light 
plant  just  installed,  do  tender  an  especial  vote  of  thanks  to  the  Alumni  Associa- 
tion of  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy.
