The speaker spoke on “The Drug- gist and the Public.”” IHe said that there was a time when anyone could enter into the business and do about as he pleased. Now conditions are changed, he sald, and Connecticut has the best pharmacy laws in the United States, The pharmacists themselves saw the need of stricter laws, the speaker sald, pertaining to sanitary conditions in the stores, There are foew mistakes made today compared to the large number made in the olden days, he sald, Continuing Mr. Garvan said “A drug store opérating without a licensed pharmacist or an assistant pharmacist is operating as a direct violation of the law, There are few such stores in Connecticut and everything 1s be- ing done to bring them up. If aYter a second notice they do not employ a licensed pharmacist or an assistant the store is closed.” Captain Howard of Hartford, a 75 vear old Civil war veteran, entertain- ed the members of .the club on the drums, with bugle calls, accordion solos, a buck and wing dance and a tamborine number, Rev.
