trolley  and  boat  rides  and  a  vaudeville  show.  One  of  the  notable 
events  was  the  formation  of  a  Ladies'  Auxiliary. 
The  effort  to  increase  the  membership  from  New  Jersey  in  the 
American  Pharmaceutical  Association  was  heartily  endorsed. 
Among  those  elected  to  honorary  membership  was  Professor 
C.  B.  Lowe. 
After  considerable  discussion  the  association  endorsed  the  propo- 
sition to  have  incorporated  in  the  State  Pharmacy  Law  a  prerequisite 
clause,  and  the  Committee  on  Legislation  were  directed  to  prepare 
a  draft  of  such  a  bill  to  be  submitted  to  the  next  session  of  the 
Legislature.  Such  an  enactment  will  place  Xew  Jersey  in  harmony 
with  New  York  and  Pennsylvania  in  pharmaceutical  requirements. 
Delegates  to  the  Pennsylvania  Pharmaceutical  Association  re- 
ported a?  follows  through  the  Chairman,  Professor  C.  B.  Lowe: 
"  The  thirty-second  annual  meeting  of  the  Pennsylvania  Phar- 
maceutical Association  was  held  at  Bedford  Springs,  June  24-27. 
An  important  report  which  provoked  considerable  discussion  was 
that  of  the  Committee  on  Legislation,  John  C.  Wallace,  Chairman. 
The  passage  of  the  Pure  Drug  Bill  for  Pennsylvania  differs  from 
the  national  Pure  Food  and  Drugs  Law  in  that  it  does  not  allow 
any  variation  from  U.S.P.  standards,  in  the  case  of  six  drugs  and 
preparations  containing  them,  as  specified  in  the  law  (see  American 
Journal  of  Pharmacy,  January,  1909).  While  the  law  was  not 
entirely  satisfactory  to  all  of  the  pharmacists  of  the  State,  many  of 
whom  did  not  think  it  wise  to  allow  any  variation  at  all,  it  was 
thought  to  be  the  best  which  could  be  enacted  at  the  present  time. 
The  new  cocaine  law  was  also  referred  to  ;  this  in  addition  to  the 
restrictions  contained  in  the  old  law  compels  both  manufacturers 
and  wholesalers  to  keep  a  record  of  all  sales  of  cocaine  or  prepara- 
tions containing  it.  The  number  of  papers  presented  was  forty-five. 
The  next  meeting  is  to  be  held  at  Buena  Vista  Springs."
