ANNUAL ADDRESS,
in which he congratulated the association
upon the progress made in so brief an ex-
istence and urged continuance of the
present spirit and enthusiasm. Secretary
W. S. Getty of st. Paul submitted his
report, showing total OF 154
members, with his mail pouch
crowded with applications. He believed
the new ones would increase the total to
over 200, and, with nearly 1900 pharma-
cists in the state, that number was very
small. Treasurer J. G. Henning of Still

action in requesting an appeal of the rev.
enue taxes, which he denounced as odious
and unjust. Il. +. Stark of Minneapolis

FIRST ANNUAL REPORT

the registration of the state pharmacists.
The total enrolment was S7S, OF whom 754
are Of American birth and la born in the
British empire. Among the number were
80 college graduates. There were so addi-
tional enrollments from the number of
those who passed the pharmacy board eX-
aminations The business Of pharmacy
was reported to be making rapid progress
in the right direction. The board urged
druggists to make open complaints against
other druggists violating the pharmacy law
instead of lodging information with the
board privately. He recommended two
amendments to the pharmacy law. one to
license assistant pharmacists, who may
practice only under the direction OF reg
istered pharmacist and who may not be left
in charge Of the store. The second pro-
posed amendment would require all phar-
macists. whether holding diploma ornot.
to pass the examination.
