I ask, wouldn't it give you the twitches! : Well, that's me last night at the first annual banquet of the District of Columbla Retail Druggists’ Asso- ciation, staged in the grani ball- room of the Raleigh iotel, where about 300 of the membership sang, played and made noise!

Only the day before I'd been on the job out to Rock Creek cemetary, where the Sons of the American Revolution had re-marked the newly discovered graves of four revolutionary soldiers, and, as from youth, I'd always shown druggists the same reverence and respect I aid preachers and family doctors, he caught me in the proper mood and I accepted instanta! We live to learn! Jambouree of Happiness.

He told briefly how the big spread was the first ever at- tempted by the District of Columbia Retail Drugglists’ Association, but that, jedged from the splendid turn- out,’it wouldn't be the last, and then he set down! Cries for “Pearson” then echoed through the room, but the genial vice chairman of the arrangements com- mittee was so busy seein’ that all present were supplied with new-fan- gled noise-makers that it was not for five minutes he was recognized in his tissue-paper head-piece! Rushin’ to the rostrum, he dell ered a “wonderful” talk on the pu poses and growth of the organiz tion, and ended by payin' a fittin' tribute to the entire drug manafac- turies of the United States, all of whom had co-operated 100 per cent in makin’ the local affalr a success!
