The Human Race is divided into two classes: those who go ahead and do something, and those who sit and enquire: "Why wasn't it done the other way?" -[OLIVER WEendall HolmES. OKLAHOMA DEPARTMENT. First Annual Meeting of the Oklahoma State Pharmaceutical Association.. Platt National Park, Sulphur, Okla., May 20-22. One of the interesting features of the meeting of the association this year, which should be mentioned at the outset, relates to the place of meeting. Sulphur is a resort. A resort in this new country sounds rather ambitious. Nevertheless, Oklahoma can honestly boast of a real resort, and resorters to support it. If one were to compare Sulphur Springs, Okla., with Excelsior Springs, Mo., it would not be an exaggeration. Indeed "Sulphur" can score some points in its favor over "Excelsior". Not the least among these points is the steady mid-ocean like breeze in the hot season which keeps the foliage in constant commotion, electric fans being at a discount. The legend which goes with the retreat is: "The Ancient Outing Place of the Red Man Beautified under United States Government supervision and dedicated forever to the Pleasure of the People." At the "Artesion" (headquarters), on the broad piazza, and in the lobby, badges are in evidence, showing an encouraging numerical strength for Oklahoma Pharmacy. Over 200 delegates were in attendance. The first annual meeting was called to order by President McGinnis on Wednesday, May 20, at 10 a. m., at Banquet Hall. Judge John Casteel, representing the Commercial Club and citizens of Sulphur, and Col. A. R. Green, representing the United States, welcomed the delegates. H. D. Kniseley, Checotah, and F. B. Lillie responded. After the preliminary details of opening, consisting of reports of committees, etc., Mr. Knisely reviewed the organization and work of the Indian Territory Association, and Mr. Lillie reviewed that of the Oklahoma Association; this was followed by the formal inauguration of the new state association, into which the two former associations are now merged. The members of these former organizations being the charter members of the new state association constituted an available membership of about 300. On Wednesday morning, after the preliminaries were disposed of, papers were presented. Mr. J. T. Drummond, of Dowe, discussed "The Employer and Employee" in a candid way, incidentally touching the self-sufficiency idea which either or both parties may foster or curb. Too much of it brings bad results. "The Arabs have a proverb," he said, "The moment a man is satisfied with himself, every one else is dissatisfied with him"-justly so perhaps. J. C. Holland read a paper on "The Importance of a Knowledge of Chemistry", giving numerous examples of where it was needed in the testing of official chemicals. L. Matthews, Jr., of Pauls Valley, read a paper on "The Encouragement of Closer Relation Between Pharmacist and Physician", taking up several divergent ideas clustering around his subject and threw into them all the optimistic ideas characteristic of Oklahoma spirit. His paper was highly applauded. Mr. L. Matthews, Sr., gave a rousing talk on association support and need of it now at the initiative stage of legislation. He was enthusiastically and unanimously supported. As chairman of the Committee on Adulterations the same member called upon Prof. L. E. Sayre, of Kansas, to address the association relating to his personal experiences with the subject of growing importance. Professor Sayre gave a brief account of analyses of various articles of widely different physical characters, including spices, oils, drug powders, fluid extracts, etc., and closed by stating that the quality of materials now being supplied-even to the spices-were improving, showing a wholesome attitude of business toward the drug law. In the afternoon session several papers were read. Miss Dollie Singleterry, of Caney, read a paper on "Window Display." Mr. John Humphrey on "The Druggist and the Doctor", making the point that the two professions they represent were interdependent. Mr. W. H. Samuels, of Hominy, presented a paper on "The Small Town Druggist". He, with others of his class, suffer from the Itinerant Vender. The injustice to the public and to pharmacy in permitting the drug wagon to encroach upon legitimate pharmacy was not only to be regretted but should be strenuously combatted. Mr. Samuels had some practical suggestions to meet this growing evil. The Traveling Men's Association, now proving a wholesome spicy auxillary, had a session in adjourning room, Mr. Victor Rankins in the chair. This organization, after disposing of routine business, listened to short addresses for the good of the order, and showed itself a loyal friend to the association work. Professor Sayre was asked to address the members, which he did by calling attention to the important position of the traveling salesman as a help in the fair and proper execution of the drug law, and as an aid in removing friction, which in some cases was almost unavoidable between inspectors and dealers. Harmonious action was the thing to seek and strive after. At the Friday morning session a motion was made to alter the constitution so that traveling salesmen might become active members, on the basis of paying annual dues, etc. It was not shown, however, that the traveling men desired this recognition. Besides this the conservative element maintained the position that practicing pharmacists should hold to the policy of deciding for themselves the important questions, which may make or break them, which will help or harm their cause. The motion was lost to the entire satisfaction of the traveling men. Following this pleasant and spirited debate the attention of the delegates was called to a more serious question, relating to the matter of dealing with the alcohol question, which it must be admitted requires discretion and tact. It is well known that under the new prohibition law authorized state dispensories alone shall supply alcohol for pharmaceutical purposes, and the pharmacist is required to give a $1 000 bond if he so buys and uses the alcohol. The situation is one that is apt to create opposition, which opposition might be misunderstood as meaning an antagonism to the principles of prohibition and, therefore, the whole problem is a very delicate one with which to deal. The election of officers resulted as follows: H. D. KNISELEY. President-H, D). Kniseley, Checotah, by unanimous and enthusiastic acclamation. Vice-President-M. M. Hays' Quinton. Second Vice-President - Claud Powell, Stillwater. Third Vice-President - A. D. Hughes, Miami. Secretary-W.H. McCu, Luther. The ten persons chosen by ballot, from which shall be chosen those to serve upon the Pharmacy Examining Board, were as follows: Fred Reed, Norman; F. C. Savage, Hartshorn; H. D. Kniseley, Checotah; J. C. Burton, Strand; F. B. Lilly, Guthrie; H. C. Washburn, Norman; I. Matthews, Miami; H. C. Cobb, Muskogee; E. K. McGinnis, Sulphur; John Humphrey, Bristow. Mr. F. B. Lilly, who is well known as one of the level-headed conservatives, made a motion to the effect: That as loyal citizens of our state we will support and obey all laws in force until repealed. This motion seemed to be quite necessary and that it be published pretty generally, because of the fact that a clause had been inserted in the Oklahoma Daily making a false statement that the druggists had in convention opposed the provisions of the law, and that the druggists were inclined to favor the buying of alcohol as usual in the open market. Another one of the live subjects, which the Oklahoma druggists recognize as demanding immediate attention, is that which has been referred to by the members in their papers: The Itinerant Vender. formal statement of this might be put in the following words, which are contributed by Hon. C. A. Frazer: A "We believe that the injury to public health from the excessive use of these preparations (drug wagon medicines) if but known, would prove to be greater than the harm resulting from the sale of intoxicants, and the time is not far distant when proper legislation will control their distribution. "The physician and the druggist are the conservers of public health, and they are particularly interested in legislation of this character, not from a pecuniary standpoint, but are as desirous of legislation for the public good as is any other class of our citizens. It is therefore believed by both the druggist and the physician that the indiscriminate ale by peddlers, who have no knowledge of the use of medicine should be prohibited by law in the interests of public health and safety." The place of next meeting was chosen as Muskogee. The entertainment committee did royal service in making it interesting and pleasant for the delegates and their friends. An evening was spent at the opera house, where an entertainment was given in the magic art, where the miraculous performances, up to date, were performed before the eyes of the audience and the high lights of the stage. The ladies were given rides to the hills, springs and the falls, and the field sports enlivened the unbending youths of all ages. MATRIMONIAL. Hayes-Dunning.-James F. Hayes and Miss Dunning, of Denver, Colo., were married, May 5. Mr. Hayes was at one time a representative of the pharmaceutical manufacturing department of the Meyer Brothers Drug Co., and is now interested in the Astor Pharmacy Co., of Denver. Mrs. Hayes is prominent in social circles of Denver. Bradley-Remington.-On May 6, Thomas Bradley, of Philadelphia, and Miss Anna Collins Remington, of the same city, were married. The bride is the daughter of Professor and Mrs. Joseph P. Remington, and has attended several pharmaceutical conventions. Many friends were present from New York and other cities. After a wedding tour, the couple will be at home at 324 South Forty-second St. Paris-Bascom.-J. Ernest Paris has charge of the store belonging to Dr. W. J. J. Paris, at Cave-in-Rock, Ill. Mr. Paris, who graduated at the St. Louis College of Pharmacy, last April, was quietly married, December 22, to Miss Sarah Margarette Bascom, of Cave-in-Rock, Ill. His classmates regret having missed the opportunity of extending their congratulations while Mr. Paris was in school, but the expressions are none the less hearty at this time. Hudgins-Bundy.-It was during holiday week of last year that Mr. E. M. Hudgins, of Johnston City, Ill., bid his classmates good-bye at the St. Louis College of Pharmacy and quietly went to Florence, Colo., where he was married to Miss Jessie M. Bundy, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Bundy. Mr. Bundy formerly owned the bank at Benton, Ill. The accomplished young lady is an ideal wife for a pharmacist. Mr. Hudgins returned to college, graduated with the class of 1908 and now Mr. and Mrs. Hudgins are located at Florence, Colo. His many friends are pleased to learn not only of his marriage but also that he is gradually regaining his former good health. A severe attack of typhoid fever interfered with his work at the college of pharmacy. Hunold-Cockrane.-The marriage of Miss Margaret Helen Cockrane, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Cockrane to Frank A. Hunold, Ph. G., occurred on May 16, the event taking place at the Episcopal rectory, Port Washington, N. Y., the Rev. Wm. E. Nies officiating. Mr. and Mrs. Hunold will make their future home at Port Washington, where the groom conducts a drug store. Mr. Hunold is a graduate of the New York College of Pharmacy, a member of Morton Lodge No. 63 A. F. and A. M., and is very well known and popular. For several years he was manager of the Lusk Pharmacy, Hempstead, N. Y. The bride was also a clerk in Lusk's Pharmacy and it was here where the meeting took place. The bride is a sweet and beautiful young lady and very popular and we think she will also soon become a pharmaceutical graduate. PHARMACEUTICAL ASSOCIATIONS. The New Hampshire Ph. A. will meet at Newport, N. H., June 23-25, inclusive. The Secretary is H. E. Rice, of Nashua, N. H. The Washington State Ph. A. meets at Moclips, July 14-17 inclusive. The organization is in a prosperous condition and the indications are good for a largely attended meeting. An Appeal From The Ohio Committee on Papers and Queries. The opportune time for the true phar macist to assert himself and come to his own has asrived. This condition has been brought about by the propaganda in the interest of the U. S. P. VIII., and N. F. III. Galenicals. This committee is extremely desirous of receiving reports from every member of the Ohio State Pharmaceutical Association, giving his experience, beneficial or otherwise, in the preparation of the aboved-named authoritative medicaments. The original formulas were worked out by expert pharmacists and chemists, who had every facility for experiment and operation; and, while the general results are deserving of the highest praise, yet the usual working of these formulas in the restricted environment of the average drug store has not always brought the best results; it is, therefore, extremely important that your experience should be put on record as a means of helping to correct these defects and make our authorities fit the pharmacists and their facilities, in order that uniform and efficient work can be accomplished. The following defects are said to exist in the preparations named below; and, while we want a report on everything you have noted, we strongly request your opinion on the following: Liquor Antisepticus Alkalinus, N. F. The Cudbear of commerce has a variable tinctorial power. Some method of obtaining a uniform color is desired. Magnesii Carbonas, U. S. P. It is said that the article labeled "for technical use" is still used almost exclusively for pharmaceutical use. It is good enough for this purpose? The U. S. P. article is quoted at seven or eight times the price of the above. Liquor Cresolis Compositus, U. S. P. Faults claimed: Does not produce a clear mixture with water; varies too much in color and may be too alkaline. Elixir Ferri Quininae, et Strychninae Phosphatum, U. S. P. Claimed it changes color on keeping and difficulty of preparation without the formation of precipitate. Liquor Ferri Peptonati cum Mangano, N. F. Principal difficulty is said to be the inability to secure a good iron albuminate and a solution magnesium citrate. Elixir Gentianae Glycerinata, N. F. Contains too much saccharin and too little acetic ether. Liquor Sodii Phosphatis Compositus, U. S. P. The main trouble is the inability to get the ingredients all into solution and to prevent a subsequent precipitation. Syrupus Hydrochlorphosphatum, N. F. The formula is considered worthless, but is said to be capable of change. Many other suggestions and hints are to be found in the current pharmaceutical press, and we earnestly hope you will favor us with the results of some of your own experience.-[JOSEPH FEIL, Chairman, 1963 East Seventy-First Street, Cleveland, Ohio; W. R. OGIER, Columbus, Ohio; C. T. P. FENNEL, Cincinnati, Ohio, Committe on Papers and Queries. The Proprietary Association of America is made up of manufacturers of so-called. patent medicines, with a sprinkling of those engaged in the manufacture of so-called proprietary medicines. A number of the latter withdrew their membership a year or more ago when the medical profession attempted to distinguish between patent and proprietary medicines. The ripple caused at that time has evidently subsided, for the twenty-sixth annual meeting, held at the Hotel Astor, New York City, May 13-14, was a record breaker as to attendance and work accomplished. A prosperity cry filled the atmosphere and it was decided to unite forces in the work of regaining the public ear and confidence in patent medicines. Marked attention was paid to the pharmaceutical press, so much so that editors, modest as a class, were confused when called upon to speak and share the attention crowded upon them. Caswell A. Mayor editor of the American Druggist was the first to regain self control and made a very creditable talk. D. O. Haynes followed with a few words for the Pharmaceutical Era, while Charles B. Drake represented the Practical Druggist. Henry R. Strong, of the National Druggist, analyzed the attitude of drug journals towards the proprietary medicine men. Hugh Craig, of the Druggists Circular, completed the list of editors who were obliged to drop their pens to use their tongues on this interesting occasion. The new officers for the ensuing year are as follows: President, Frank J. Cheney, Toledo, O.; First Vice-President, John W. Kennedy, Chicago; Second Vice-President, A. H. Beardsley, Elkhart, Ind.; Secretary-Treasurer, Orient C. Pinckney. During the meeting, news reached the convention hall of the jury verdict in favor of Miss Frances Wynne against the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. for $6000.00 damages on account of alleged unauthorized publication of a testimonial and photograph. The case has been appealed but the news caused much discussion which finally led to an executive session without even editors as spectators. It is likely that this case will result in new plans for securing and using testimonials. RECENT GRADUATES. Baylor University College of Pharmacy (Dallas, Tex.)-J. W. Ball, A. J.

Keep Your Eyes Open to wait on customers and give them their checks promptly without having to be asked for them. Be Polite under all circumstances. Wait for your customer's order, but not in a manner that indicates impatience. Don't Run your glasses over, it presents a negligent appearance and gives a bad impression. Don't Put Your Fingers on the rim or in the glass except when cleaning it and do not allow your soda glasses to be used for medicines-keep special glasses for that. Cleanliness is of the utmost importance and neatness in your work saves you half the work. Always keep the counter wiped dry.-[ The Soda Fountain.
