Alex +. Peterson, Missoula, chair

association. told the meeting that HI
believed the resolution will be bette
received by the state board of educa
ton If the association recommends TIT
four year course. Besides giving stu
dents four years. training which they
need, it will mean that druggists vii
have more efficient graduates to enter
their employ, Mr.. Peterson said.
Mr.. Peterson. Miss Lynn Walter OF
Sheridan. J. w. Seiden of L.ewistowr
and J. F. Murray of Malta are mem.
bers of the committee to prepa the
resolutions concerning the school OF
pharmacy which will be presented to

for the auditing committee, said that

and Treasurer j. n. Talbott's books
had been made and they we're found
to be correct.
Special Convention Expense
J. W. Seiden of Lewistown. chair
man of the committee on the presi-
dent S address, reported as follows:
In the matter of increasing the
dues of the association, we find that
under the present pharmacy law. the
c OF the association are fixed at
81 annually and that any decision Of
your committee can only be a recon-
mendatlon to the legislative committee.
We feel that the dues are too small
to cover the expenses of the owen
tons at the present schedule of dues.
therefore. in order to get the treasury
up to a condition where the association
may pay all convention expenses. we
respectfully suggest:
That a registry office be establish
ed where attending members may regis
ter and procure badges. souvenirs and
coupon books covering all features and
entertainment furnished by convention
program at the then figure. This is in
tended to cover the entertainment only.
Inc figure for entertainment. badges.
etc, Will conform to the mount and
extent OF the entertainment then OBJ
tanning and any balance to be diverted
to the treasury of the associa, lion and
any deficiency to be made up out of
the regular association treasury.
This is done to raise funds so that
the association as an organization NAV
pay the expenses instead of imposing
the convention expenses on the CON
vention cities.
indorse National Association
We wish to commend our president
and the city Of Great Falls for the
interest manifested in our profession
and the excellent program furnished
and to thank Great Falls druggists for
their loyalty and support.
We ac1uiesce in the views of Presi-
dent Woehner for his stand in the
American Pharmaceutical association
and trust that all Montana pharmacists
become members of this organization.
which has stood for the interests of
the profession of pharmacy for GO
years.
In supporting the recommendation
that delegates to state conventions be
for convention entertainment,
w. X. Montgomery of Butte said it
was not right that those who did not
come should be charged for convention
expenses. Mr.. Fuller of Anaconda
raised the objection that charging for
entertainment will keep
away. President Woehnersrec- |
that the dues be raised to
a year and that so be related to
al who attend the convention. Charles
Quist of Wisdom suggested that con |
expenses be prorated among
membership of the state and col
each year. Secretary Riedel
said that such a plan as Mr.. Quist's
would not be successful as the total
amount would not be collected. He
said that since the association had been
Collecting 81 from zach pharmacist
the state law. more money was
objected each year than was collected
before the present law was enacted
when the dues were 81 a year.
