self-sacrificing,  modest  name  appears  on  our  records.  In  a  neat 
memorial  to  him  we  will  honor  ourselves  and  credit  our  calling. 
Let  it  be  neatly,  artistically  and  well  done.

Dear  Sir  : — Yours  of  December  18th  was  duly  received.  On  the 
subject  of  a  memorial  to  Prof.  Wm.  Procter,  Jr.,  I  am  afraid  I  have 
nothing  new  to  add  to  your  able  editorial  in  the  November  number 
of  the  American  Journal  of  Pharmacy.  You  bring  out  very  clearly 
the  comparative  value  of  the  different  forms  which  such  a  memorial 
might  take. 
My  individual  opinion  would  be  in  favor  of  No.  2,  a  scholarship 
or  a  fellowship.  I  should  like  to  see  the  American  Pharmaceutical 
Association  take  hold  of  the  matter.  The  honor  would  be  reflected 
upon  itself.  While  his  working  field  was  Philadelphia,  his  memory 
is  a  priceless  one  to  American  pharmacy. 
It  is  not  too  early  to  canvass  the  matter,  for  we  should  be  ready 
at  the  next  annual  meeting  to  give  it  specific  form. 
J.  M.  Good. 
Dear  Sir:— -As  a  memorial  to  the  life  and  work  of  Professor  Proc- 
ter it  seems  to  me  that  the  endowment  of  a  Fellowship  for  graduate 
work  in  pharmacy  would  be  of  the  greatest  benefit  to  the  interests 
for  which  he  labored  and  of  largest  advantage  to  the  pharmacists  of 
the  United  States.  If  such  a  memorial  should  be  placed  in  charge 
of  the  American  Pharmaceutical  Association  it  would  be  in  all 
respects  a  national  benefaction.

Dear  Sir: — I  am  in  receipt  of  your  favor  of  the  1 5th  inst.,  referring 
to  a  memorial  to  Professor  Procter. 
I  would  suggest  a  scholarship  as  a  suitable  form  of  memorial. 
When  the  matter  is  in  more  definite  shape,  we  shall  be  pleased  to 
have  you  call  upon  us  for  a  contribution. 
S.  W.  Fairchild. 
Dear  Sir: — I  do  not  know  what  has  been  talked  about  in  refer- 
ence to  the  memorial  to  Professor  Procter,  but  in  view  of  the  proba- 
bility that  a  scholarship  or  any  other  form  which  would  be  centered 
in  or  connected  with  the  Philadelphia  College  of  Pharmacy  would 
tend  to  sectionalize  and  narrow  the  scope  of  the  movement,  I  think 
a  bronze  monument  erected  in  a  park  or  square  in  Philadelphia 
might  be  the  most  practical.
