EIGHT GIRL DRUGGISTS.
Are Studying at Pharmacy School of
State University.

The annual catalogue of the school
of pharmacy of the state university
was issued today from the state print
cry. 1t is a pamphlet of 80 pages. and
contains the usual information in re-
gard to courses of study and the va
rious degrees granted.
Out of total enrolment of 102, there
are eight girls attending the school.
Only one student is enrolled in the
freshman class. This seems to indi-
cate that the short two year course in
pharmacy is what most of the students
want, as students in the two year
course are enrolled as juniors and
seniors, while students in the four year
course have to start in as freshmen.
