Xorth CaroUna Pharmaceutical Association. 19 the fact that it pays to attend meetings such as this. The advantages are so many and the benefits so varied and divergent that it is im-ix)ssible to tabulate them, and the time at my disix>sal is too short to elaborate them. It pays a man to help make every meeting of an association like this a success, because of the influence the meeting exerts on the community in which it is held, educating and stimulating the local profession and advertising to the laity that pharmacy is a progressive science. It pays to write a paper for an association, because one has to study and faxuiliarize one's self with the subject and thus become a better druggist. It pays a man to read a paper because it gives him legitimate opportunity to show his capacity and experience, thus increasing his reputation. It pays a man to listen to the papers by others because in no way can he in the same length of time get so much knowledge with so little labor. In addition to the educational and professional advantages alluded to, there are the equally important social and personal benefits to be derived by attending. The occasion is a holiday, a recreation, a vacation ; it breaks the monotony of life and enables a man to do better work when he returns home. It affords opiwrtunity to meet men who are doing the same kind of work in different sections of the country and results in pleasant and profitable acquaintanceship, which often leads to permanent friendship, and last, but not least, it brings together men who live in the same community, but who, owing to petty jealousies or lack of time for social intercourse, see little of each other. Either in these sessions or on the journey to or from the place of meeting, they are thrown into intimate contact which frequently leads to explanation of differences, to the appreciation of good qualities and to the establishment of the most cordial and freudly relations. The year just passed has been a distinctly encouraging one for the highesit and best in pharmacy in many ways. The Federal Pure Food and Drug Law and similar laws enacted by many of the States have proven a severe blow to such business as depended for success largely upon adulteration and misbranding, and so have tended to rid the profession of an incubus. The Legislature of North Carolina has enacted a Pure Food and Drug Act, and we are all glad to know the Board of Pharmacy and the Board of Agriculture have the right to recommend the appointee for the State Inspector, and we are also glad Secretary F. W. Hanc-ock has been agreed uix>n for the place� no wiser or better selection c-ould have been made. The difficulty that confronts the most successful operation in carrying on the work is, there are not funds sufficient at hand to cany out the plans.
