Between  these  covers  we  have 
striven  to  catch  the  elusive  figure  of 
Father  Time  himself,  and  to  stem  the 
tide  of  years  that  flows  swiftly  past — 
into  eternity. 

If  these  likenesses  of  old  friends 
herein  retained,  and  these  few 
glimpses  of  old  familiar  surroundings, 
make  warm  a  place  in  your  heart  for 
our  book,  then  we  have  accomplished 
our  purpose,  and  we  consider  our  task 
well  done.

HISTORY  OF  THE  COLLEGE 


The  Indianapolis  College  of  Pharniac}-  \^•as  established  in  April,  1904,  and 
on  September  sixth  of  the  same  year  enrolled  its  first  class,  numbering-  twelve 
studtmts.  The  college  was  established  for  the  purpose  of  gi\ing  a  thorough 
anrl  efficient  preparation  to  }-(iung'  men  and  women  desiring  to  enter  the  field 
of  Pharmacy.  Sjjecial  courses  were  also  given  for  those  who  planned  to  do 
additional  work  in  Chemistry. 

All  of  the  hopes  of  the  founders  have  been  happily  fulfilled.  The  college 
has  been  in  continuous  operation  for  more  than  twenty-four  years.  The  en- 
rollment the  first  }'ear  was  twehe  students  :  in  1928,  it  is  more  than  two  hun- 
dred. The  first  graduating  class  numbered  eleven.  In  1928  there  will  be  over 
fort}-  graduates.  This  number  is  not  as  large  as  usual  since  this  class  is  the 
first  to  complete  the  three-}-ear  course  now  given  at  this  school. 

The  historv  of  the  college  has  not  been  uneventful.  It  has  Ijeen  moved 
four  times,  at  intervals  of  about  five  years  each.  The  cause  on  three  of  these 
occasions  was  the  necessity  for  seeking  larger  cjuarters  in  order  to  accommo- 
date the  steadilv  increasing  classes,  and  to  provide  the  space  necessary  for 
satisfactory  work. 

The  present  home  of  the  college  leaves  very  little  to  be  desired.  The  prop- 
ert}-  extends  one-half  city  l)lock  on  ]\Iarket  street  and  the  same  distance  on 
Davidson  street.  It  is  easy  of  access,  and  only  eight  blocks  from  Monument 
Circle.  There  are  numerous  lecture  rooms  of  large  size,  two  with  a  capacity 
of  more  than  one  hundred  students  each.  A  large  central  amphitheatre  affords 
an  excellent  opportunity  for  student  assembly.  The  large  laboratories  for 
chemistr}',  botany,  bacteriology,  dispensing  pharmacy,  scientific  window  dec- 
oration, etc.,  are  fully  equipped  for  their  various  phases  of  work. 

There  is  plentv  of  room  for  diversion;  there  are  inter-class  and  inter- 
scholastic  basketball  games,  there  are  dances  and  other  social  afifairs. 

Since  its  beginning,  this  college  has  had  the  largest  enrollment,  and  the 
largest  graduating  classes  in  the  state.  We  can  be  justly  proud  of  our  Alma 
A  later.

the  distinction  of  being  the  first  to  complete  a  three-year  course.  This  has

distinct  ser\ice  to  the  commmunity  in  which  you  reside.  You  will  have  an 
intimate  contact  with  the  public  and  will  be  in  a  position  to  disseminate  re- 
liable information.  You  should  use  every  opportunity  to  co-operate  with  pub- 
lic health  agencies  and  individuals  in  allied  fields.  In  performing  such  duties 
you  will  conform  to  the  ethics  of  your  profession,  and  in  addition  will  receive 
the  material  rewards  which  accompany  success.

LABOR   OMNIA  VINCIT 


Wm.  A.  Logan 

A  class  of  forty-three  ambitious  boys 

Struggling,  mingling  sorrows  with  joys. 

We  have  no  fear,  for  we'll  trj'  to  do 

All  that  is  good  and  kind  and  true. 

With  scorn  in  our  hearts  for  those  who  shirk 

And  try  to  flee  from  life's  great  work. 

No  task  is  too  hard,  no  joy  too  great ; 

It  is  good  to  dream  and  hope  and  wait. 

No  artist  will  ever  paint  so  true 

The  deeds  this  class  of  ours  will  do. 

I  often  sit  and  ponder  and  dream 

And  think  of  life  as  a  living  stream  ; 

As  we  float  along,  these  souls  of  ours 

Ma}-  we  pluck  the  thorns  and  plant  some  flowers, 

Tearing  away  from  the  poison  vine. 

Helping  some  struggling  soul  to  climb 

Safe  to  the  goal  of  better  things — 

Turning  away  the  bitter  stings. 

There  are  too  many  to  call  by  name, 

Yet  we  know  some  will  stand  in  the  hall  of  fame. 

We  all  will  applaud  and  proudly  proclaim. 

There's  not  one  to  spare  for  deeds  of  shame 

For  this  I  will  vouch,  for  one  and  all. 

We  will  hear  the  voice  of  duty  call. 

Yes,  we  will  hear  the  voice,  and  we  trust  and  pray 

We'll  respond  to  the  call  in  a  noble  way. 

And  some,  we  are  sure  ( for  most  boys  do) 

Will  hear  the  voice  of  a  maiden  true. 

May  she  who  is  claimed  as  a  loving  wife 

Inspire  her  mate  to  a  higher  life. 

And,  fond  hopes  rewarded  as  true  toil  brings, 

We  will  bravely  work  for  the  higher  things.

CLASS    HISTORY 


On  the  fourteenth  da}-  of  September,  nineteen  twenty-five,  sixty-three  stu- 
dents enrolled  as  Freshmen  at  Indianapolis  College  of  Pharmacy.  This  being 
the  initiation  of  the  three-year  course,  such  a  large  class  bespoke  the  fact  that 
we  were  a  group  of  true  optimists.  Hoosierdom  was  well  represented  among 
us,  as  there  were  young  men  from  almost  every  city  of  importance  in  the 
state.  And,  in  addition,  many  from  other  states  were  in  evidence. 

The  first  week  we  were  in  a  daze  most  of  the  time,  what  with  strange  sur- 
roundings, strange  faces,  and  many  a  fond  thought  of  home.  We  soon  became 
acquainted  among  ourselves,  however,  and  found  that  our  professors  were 
not  the  ogres  of  our  imaginations,  but  real  human  beings  like  ourselves. 

We  started  out  with  a  will  and  a  determination  to  delve  into  the  mysteries 
of  Pharmacy,  Chemistry  and  kindred  subjects  and  reap  the  knowledge  that 
we  knew  must  lay  in  wait.  We  plunged  into  laboratory  work  the  second 
week,  and  soon  became  aware  of  the  reason  for  a  laboratory  fee,  for  many  a 
beaker,  test-tube  or  funnel  found  its  way  to  the  waste  jar  during  those  first 
hectic  days. 

Soon  we  began  to  feel  the  need  for  organization,  and  forthwith  a  meeting- 
was  called,  and  the  following  members  of  our  class  were  elected  to  serve  as 
officers  during  the  year. 

Fox  -- President 

Lively  Vice-President 

McCroskey  Treasurer 

These  men  .served  their  class  with  credit  throughout  the  school  year. 
Committees  were  appointed  in  various  capacities,  and  when  organization  was 
complete,  plans  for  social  affairs  were  laid. 

The  first  event  was  a  Hallowe'en  dance,  given  in  the  school  cafeteria.  The 
large  room  was  appropriateh'  decorated,  and  the  affair  was  more  than  suc- 
cessful. 

By  tills  time  we  were  settled  in  our  wa}'s.  and  weeks  of  study  rolled 
swiftly  past  unti.l  we  began  to  find  we  had  been  almost  a  year  at  school,  and 
that  our  days  as  Freshmen  would  soon  be  over. 

As  a  final  fling  for  the  year,  we  successfully  gave  a  farewell  dance  in 
honor  of  the  graduating  class.  We  displayed  ourselves  this  time,  and  held  the 


Page  forty-Uoo 


r  1^  t      pi  i  g  I  tt  r  a 


affair  at  the  Elk's  Club.  This  marked  the  end  of  our  first  }ear,  and  we  parted 
to  return  again  in  the  Fall  as  full-tiedged  collegians. 

Of  our  original  number,  forty-one  registered  in  the  Fall  of  nineteen 
twenty-six  as  members  of  the  Junior  class.  We  became  quite  sophisticated  in 
our  new  station  in  life,  and  made  life  miserable  for  the  Frosh,  until  Professor 
Edwards  began  taking  some  of  the  spunk  out  of  us  with  some  heavy  assign- 
ments, and  told  us  that  the  study  of  Materia  Medica  did  not  reciuire  such 
foolishness,  So  we  settled  down  to  burn  the  midnight  oil. 

The  second  week  of  October,  our  class  assembled  and  elected  officers  to 
serve  during  the  Junior  year.  The  following  men  were  chosen  : 

James  P.  Melser President 

Anthon}-  Haag Vice-President 

H.   C.  Warmouth Treasurer 

Horace    Cutshall Secretary 

These  ofificers  faithfully  fulfilled  their  duties  throughout  the  school  year. 

Our  studies  kept  us  quite  busy  all  year,  and  many  possible  extra-curricular 
activities  were  sacrificed  for  lack  of  time.  Immediately  before  the  Christmas 
holidays,  we  were  very  pleasurably  entertained  at  a  dance  given  by  the  Fresh- 
men class  at  the  Lincoln  Hotel.  In  passing,  it  may  be  mentioned  that  those 
who  attended  considered  this  affair  one  of  the  most  enjoyable  in  the  history 
of  the  school. 

Following  the  usual  custom,  our  class  marked  the  closing  of  the  year  with 
a  dance  given  at  the  Indianapolis  Chamber  of  Commerce  to  which  the  entire 
school  was  invited.  It  was  well  attended,  and  considered  to  have  been  a  very 
successful  aiTair. 

September,  nineteen  twent}'-seven  saw  us  gathered  together  again,  and 
this  time  as  Seniors,  everyone  reporting  a  happ}-  and  successful  summer. 
Several  new  students  from  other  schools  were  added  to  our  ranks.  These  were 
Joseph  Flaherty,  Truman  Shirley,  Daniel  McCaughna,  Warren  F.  Jones,  and 
Joseph  Salerno.  These  boys,  with  Gordon  Kidder,  who  entered  in  the  mid- 
term of  our  Junior  year,  are  all  from  Chicago.  They  constitute  a  really  live 
part  of  our  class,  and  we  are  more  than  glad  to  have  them  with  us.

T  'fy  t     IMiolnra 


The  class  was  called  to  order  shortly  after  the  opening  of  school,  and 
officers  were  elected  to  serve  during  the  Senior  year.  These  officers  were 
elected : 

Dan    Talbott . President 

Horace    Cutshall Vice-President 

Carl    Speelman Treasurer 

H.    C.    Warmouth Secretary 

With  these  men  at  the  helm,  a  successful  year  was  made  certain.  Plans 
were  laid  immediately  for  a  year-book,  and  at  an  early  meeting  the  editorial 
and  business  staff  was  elected  by  the  members  of  the  class,  and  comprise  the 
following  men : 

y\nthony    Haag Editor-in-chief 

Wm.   jMcCroskey Business    Manager 

Wm.  Strafford Advertising  Manager 

The  remainder  of  the  staff  was  picked  from  among  the  other  members  of 
the  class  by  the  respective  heads  of  the  departments  as  they  saw  fit. 

A  class  dance  was  given  in  Noveml^er  at  the  Indianapolis  Chamber  of 
Commerce,  and  initiated  the  social  activities  of  the  year.  It  was  an  affair  that 
will  long  be  remembered  b}-  those  who  attended. 

After  the  effects  of  many  copious  draughts  of  punch  had  worn  off,  we 
settled  back  into  the  rut  of  study  once  more,  and  made  graduation  a  goal  to 
look  forward  to. 

And  now,  as  we  leave  old  I.  C.  P.  for  the  drug-store  counter,  we  sincerely 
hope  Ihat  we  shall  have  left  a  mark  for  ourselves,  and  that  what  we  have  ac- 
complished will  serve  as  a  beacon  for  others  who  wish  to  enter  the  field  of 
Pharmacy.

CLASS    PROPHECY 


Hello,  gang !  Get  your  pipes  and  light  up.  Maybe  we  can  find  something 
interesting  in  the  smoke.  Look,  as  the  bluish  haze  curls  upward  and  settles, 
it  takes  on  the  semblance  of  ivy-clad  buildings  with  weather-stained  stone 
walls.  In  the  background  looms  an  immense  gymnasium  and  a  huge  stadium. 
It  is  the  Indianapolis  College  of  Pharmacy.  My,  what  a  change  the  years 
bring !  There  is  one  of  the  professors.  He  looks  familiar — why,  it  is  Herbert 
Bohn.  Hello,  Herbie ! 

But  now  the  scene  slowly  changes  and  we  see  the  panorama  of  what  ap- 
pears to  be  a  battlefield  before  us.  No,  it  is  just  a  part  of  Chicago,  and  over- 
head a  huge  airplane  traveling  at  more  than  five  hundred  miles  per  hour 
looms  into  view.  And  from  another  direction,  a  similar  plane  from  Detroit 
comes  darting  at  the  Chicago  plane.  Machine  guns  are  heard,  and  the  Detroit 
plane  cfashes  to  the  ground  with  its  cargo  of  Canadian  whiskey.  Almost 
miraculously  we  see  four  men  crawl  from  beneath  the  wreckage  of  the  plane 
and  survey  it  ruefull}-.  Well,  who  would  have  thought  it?  It  just  goes  to 
show  what  fate  and  a  pipe-dream  will  do,  for  who  would  e.xpect  Hiram  War- 
mouth,  Carl  Speelman,  Joseph  Salerno,  and  Arthur  Sprandel  to  be  caught  in 
a  predicament  like  this,  running  booze  from  Detroit  to  Chicago  by  airplane? 

And  now  what  became  of  the  other  plane?  Oh,  there  they  are,  flying  over 
the  wreckage  and  leering  down  at  their  defeated  opponents.  Cold-blooded 
killers--why,  there  is  Warren  Jones  piloting  the  plane,  and  at  the  guns  sit 
Joseph  Flaherty  and  Truman  Shirley !  What  a  shock !  And  who  is  that  sit- 
ting back  there  dropping  bombs?  Well,  if  it  isn't  Daniel  McCaughna.  A  fine 
business  for  our  former  upstanding,  righteous  class-mates  to  be  engaged  in ! 

Again  the  scene  shifts,  and  we  see  a  peaceful  little  country  town.  The 
place  must  be  dead — no,  there  is  a  cow  roaming  idly  up  the  main  street.  Well, 
well,  well !  Look  at  that  sign  over  the  general  store : 

William  A.  McCroskey 
Groceries,  Fine  Meats, 
Hardware  and  Drugs. 

The  "drugs"  don't  seem  to  be  emphasized  very  much.  Let's  go  in  and  look 
things  over  and  see  what  the  meaning  of  this  is. 

Well,  where  is  the  proprietor?  Here  is  a  little  card.  It  says,  "If  the  man- 
ager is  asleep,  pull  this  cord."  Let's  give  it  a  good  yank.

"(3uch,  say,  what  are  you  trying  to  do,  move  a  ton  of  bricks.-'  You  almost 
pullet!  my  toe  ofif !" 

''Hello,  Alac,  old  boy,  how  is  the  world  treating  you?" 

"Hello,  fellows.  Say,  you  had  better  get  out  of  town,  the  sheriff  is  poison 
on  tramps." 

"Who  is  the  sheriiif,  Mac?" 

"Arnold  Aleier,  of  course,  hadn't  you  heard?"  ' 

"We're  leaving  right  now,  so  don't  worry." 

''But  sa}',  Mac,  what's  the  idea  of  putting  the  word  'drugs'  in  }our  sign  in 
such  an  inconspicuous  position .''" 

"It  is  a  sad  story.  You  remember  Bill  Logan  and  Gordon  Kidder?  Well, 
they  started  a  moving  picture  show  down  the  street,  and  then  Leland  Larri- 
son  opened  a  beauty  shop.  On  top  of  that,  Fayne  Ottinger  and  Lloyd  Living- 
ston moved  their  chicken  farm  to  town,  so  I  decided  to  quit  the  drug  business 
myself  and  get  into  ant)ther  line." 

"Well,  Mac,  that  is  tough,  and  I  feel  sorry  for  you.  I  guess  I  will  be  hit- 
ting the  rods  now.     So  long." 

"Stay  off  local  Xo.  946,  the  brakeman  on  that  train  is  Melvin  Waltz,  and 
he  sure  is  hard  on  bums." 

"A  nice  cheerful  send-otT — what  have  we  here.'' " 

"From  my  own  brother  I  wouldn't  take  less — Lm  telling  you,  such  a  bar- 
gain you  couldn't  find  no  place!" 

"Mever.  I'll  give  }ou  eight  hundred  dollars  for  the  drug  store,  and  not 
even  ask  you  how  you  got  it." 

"You  are  taking  the  bread  from  my  mouth,  but  give  me  the  eight 
hundred." 

Who  is  this  beating  Meyer  Cohen  at  driving  a  bargain?  \\'hy.  it  is  Roscoe 
Fritz.  There  must  be  more  doing  in  this  town  than  you  would  think  from  the 
appearance  of  the  place.  There  goes  a  whole  crowd  of  people. 

"Pley,  Si,  where  is  the  fire?" 


Page  forty-seven 


r  tf  t      fWlgtwra 


"There  ain't  no  fire,  but  there's  a  big  carnival  at  the  fair-grounds." 
"A  carnival,  eh,  let's  go !" 


Can  you  beat  that,  Armstrong  in  the  show  business.  Listen  to  the  barker. 
"Folks,  we  have  a  thousand  dollars  to  anyone  who  can  prove  that  our  attrac- 
tions are  not  all  fakes.  All  you  have  to  do  is  purchase  jour  tickets,  walk  right 
in  and  state  your  proofs.  Then  trj-  to  get  the  one  grand." 

Say,  that  boy  has  a  line,  and  he  certainly  ought  to  have,  for  it  is  Lewis 
Duprez. 

"Don't  watch  me,  folks,  watch  the  shells  and  tell  me  which  shell  the  pea 
is  under.  You  have  a  bad  eyesight,  fellow,  that  guess  will  cost  you  a  dollar. 
Pick  the  right  shell  folks,  and  you  win.  Anyone  else  care  to  donate  to  a 
worthy  cause?" 

Look,  it  is  George  Ebert  running  the  shell  game.  He  never  did  work  after 
he  got  married. 

Let's  look  in  on  the  side-show.  The  first  exhibit,  introducing  Robert 
V^estal,  the  world's  greatest  exponent  of  mental  telepathy.  Bring  3'our  ques- 
tions on  business,  love,  and  other  troubles  to  him  and  he  will  give  }'ou  the 
answer  to  3'our  problem. 

Xext  to  him,  we  have  Lawrence  Johantzen.  the  only  man  alive  who  eats 
ground  glass  and  washes  it  down  with  liquid  phenol. 

Tlie  next  attraction  is  a  man  internationally  known  as  a  statesman  and 
author,  who  next  month  will  allow  himself  to  be  shot  to  the  moon  in  a  rocket 
of  his  own  construction.  He  hopes  to  discuss  with  the  inhabitants — well.  I'll 
swan,  it  is  Pat  Melser. 

And  the  last  exhibit  is  a  man  who  has  spent  years  of  hard  labor — I  mean 
study — at  Michigan  City  in  an  efifort  to  determine  which  weighs  the  most,  a 
pound  of  a  substance  with  a  specific  gravity  of  1.50  or  a  pound  of  a  substance 
having  a  specific  gravity  of  2.098 — Bernard  M.  Keene. 

But  let's  get  out  of  this  hick  burg  and  get  back  to  the  city  of  our  dreams, 
our  college  city.

"Taxi !  Taxi !  Any  part  of  the  city  for  fifty  cents !"'  and  we  find  that  after 
three  long  years  at  I.  C.  P.  George  Schoener  is  driving  a  Yellow  Cab  for  a 
living. 

Paper  mister?  Big  extra  right  off  the  press!" 

Well,  well,  our  old  friend,  Blake  Emerson  selling  papers.  "How  come, 
Blake?" 

"Oh,  I  wasn't  making  $10,000  a  year  in  a  drug  store,  so  when  Anthony 
Plaag  and  Bill  Straft'ord  bought  out  the  News,  I  went  to  work  for  them." 

"So  Tony  and  Bill  bought  a  newpaper?" 

"Veh,  Tony  is  editor  and  Bill  business  manager.  Joe  Kramer  is  staff  artist 
for  them." 

"Sa}-,  Blake,  where  is  Cutshall?" 

"Didn't  vou  hear?  Cutshall,  Glenn  Denton  and  Melvin  Durkee  are  in 
Egypt  trying  to  make  the  Sphinx  give  the  answer  to  its  famous  riddle.  And, 
say.  if  you  have  a  chance,  go  down  to  the  Indiana  Theatre.  Don  Price  is  play- 
ing in  a  picture  called  'Love  in  the  Twilight',  and  Eddy  Robertson  has  taken 
Charley  Davis'  place  as  director  of  the  orchestra." 

"What  ever  happened  to  Joe  Bills?" 

"Why,  Joe  made  a  pile  of  money  out  of  his  cigar.  He  invented  one.  es- 
pecially for  druggists,  that  won't  go  out." 

"How  about  Seymour  and  Miller?'' 

"Sevmour  was  going  to  get  married  and  Miller  was  to  be  his  best  man,  but 
the  bride  didn't  show  up  on  the  wedding  day,  so  Seymour  joined  the  Foreign 
Legion  to  try  to  forget,  and  Miller  went  along  to  keep  him  company.  After  a 
time,  Seymour,  still  heart-broken  over  the  way  his  romance  was  shattered, 
fell  in  love  with  a  girl  he  slipped  to  see  almost  every  night.  He  married 
her  and  went  with  her  to  visit  her  people,  but  when  he  got  there  he  found  that 
her  father  was  none  other  than  Dan  Talliott,  who  forgave  him  for  marrying 
his  daughter  without  his  consent  as  father.  Shortly  after  that  Seymour  found 
that  the  chef  at  his  father-in-law's  home  was  Bob  Teeter." 

But  now  the  smoke  grows  thinner,  and  our  pipe  dreams  have  vanished.  So 
ends  the  prophecy.  It  may  come  true  and  it  may  not,  but  who  cares  ?  Tomor- 
row brings  we  know  not  what,  so  live  and  love  today,  and  let  the  future  bring 
wdiat  it  may.

The    Passing    of    a    Student 


When  he  was  a  Freshman,  the  ilhiess  came, 
A  common  complaint  in  this  domain, 

He  took  down  with  Physiology  and  Pharmacy,  too, 
But  when  he  got  to  Chemistr}',  he  was  blue. 

Of  these  studies,  he  was  finally  cured  ; 

Of  being  a  Junior  he  was  assured ; 
But  the  poor  young  man  was  soon  forced  to  bed 

Because  anatomy  had  gone  to  his  head. 

Then  the  profs  worked  both  night  and  day 

For  fear  that  he  would  pass  away. 
He  swallowed  potions  of  every  kind. 

Liquid  mixtures,  and  tasteless  quinines. 

'Twas  soon  the  end  of  his  Senior  year, 

Everyone  knew  the  end  was  near, 
And  when  the  plants  began  to  sprout. 

With  a  sad  smile,  the  boy  passed  out 

of  I.  C.  P.

JUNIOR     CLASS 


The  Junior  class  of  the  Indianapolis  College  of  Pharmacy,  the'  Class  of 
1929,  looks  back  upon  the  Autumn  of  the  }"ear  1926  with  more  than  common 
interest.  It  marked  the  beginning  of  their  career  in  Pharmacy.  \'inet}'-seven 
_\oung  men  and  one  }-oung  ^voman  assembled  to  take  up  the  study  of  Phar- 
macy and  allied  subjects.  The  assemlily  was  one  to  be  considered  interesting. 
The  students  came  from  far  and  near,  from  the  four  corners  of  our  state  and 
from  man}-  neighboring  states. 

The  first  week  was  spent  in  the  usual  preliminaries,  such  as  completing 
registration,  first  assignments,  and  other  organization  work.  The  second 
week  was  the  beginning  of  real  school,  consisting  of  lectures  and  laboratory 
work.  Many  of  the  students  were  mere  novices  at  laborator}'  work,  and  their 
initial  experiences  can  now  be  looked  upon  with  amusement. 

The  class  being  organized  into  two  sections,  the  work  proceeded  smoothly, 
week  after  week  going  by,  with  the  note  of  accomplishment  on  every  hand. 

The  class  assembled  November  1,  1926,  for  the  purpose  of  forming  a  gov- 
erning i)c)d}'.  The  meeting  was  a  success,  and  the  following  officers  were 
elected  : 

George   Bicknell : President 

Harlow    Hancock ' Vice-President 

Pearl  E.  Murray . Secretary 

Myron    Miller Sergeant-at-Arms 

The  first  outstanding  event  following  the  election  of  class  officers  was  the 
Freshman-Junior  football  game  on  Armistice  Day.  The  game  was  warmly 
contested  and  well  played,  the  Class  of  '29  winning  the  game  by  a  score 
of  7  to  0. 

The  Christmas  season,  1926,  was  the  time  of  our  first  social  event,  an  en- 
joyable dance,  given  at  the  Lincoln  Hotel.  The  dance  was  an  outstanding 
success,  and  more  affairs  were  planned,  but  the  pressure  of  study  made  them 
impossible  during  the  balance  of  the  year.

The  days  and  weeks  rolled  by  and  we  were  kept  so  busy  that  we  ap- 
proaclied  the  end  of  the  school  year  before  we  knew  it.  A  great  deal  had  been 
accomplished  in  the  few  short  months  of  our  schooling,  so  much  that  there 
was  scarcely  any  comparison  with  the  class  of  this  period,  and  the  inex- 
perienced group  which  had  entered  school  the  fall  before. 

The  one  point  which  we  must  not  overlook  is  the  fine  class  spirit  which 
was  dexeloped.  This  enabled  the  class  to  function  as  one  body,  since  each 
student  was  mure  than  willing  to  work  for  the  benefit  of  the  whole  group. 

The  \'ear's  work  was  a  complete  success  and  each  member  left  upon  his 
vacation  with  the  intention  of  returning  again  in  the  Fall,  and  with  a  feeling 
of  gratitude  toward  the  Faculty  for  their  efforts  in  helping  us  to  lay  the 
corner-stone  of  our  great  adventure,  Pharmacy. 

The  Fall  of  1927  brought  us  together  again.  We  were  now  chesty  Juniors. 
The  love  feast  we  had  reviewing  past  experiences  and  relating  occurrences  of 
the  Summer  just  past  will  not  soon  be  forgotten. 

Eighty  cf  the  original  ninety-eight  students  returned  to  be  with  us  again. 
In  addition  to  these,  eight  more  came  from  other  schools  to  join  our  ranks, 
making  a  total  of  eighty-eight  students  in  the  Junior  class. 

The  class  was  re-organized  as  soon  as  possible  after  the  opening  of  the 
school  year.  Work  was  taken  up,  and  has  continued  without  interruption  up 
to  the  present  time. 

The  first  class  meeting  of  the  year  was  held  October  22.  1927,  at  which 
lime  oft'icial  business  A\-as  transacted  and  new  officers  elected.  The  following- 
men  were  chosen  to  fill  the  executive  chairs. 

Thomas    Todd , President 

George    Bicknell Vice-President 

Stanley  Proctor L Secretary 

Avon    Szendry Treasurer 

W.   H.   Whipple Sergeant-at-Arms 

The  next  notable  event  was  the  annual  Armistice  Day  football  game.  It 
was  played  in  the  usual  lively  fashion,  and  was  a  hard  contest  from  begin- 
ning to  end.  We  lost  the  game,  with  a  score  13  to  0.

The  year  has  slipped  around  again  almost  before  we  know  it,  work  on 
every  hand  making  the  months  seem  more  like  so  many  days. 

In  the  middle  of  March,  1928,  the  Senior  Class,  for  some  unknown  reason, 
saw  Jit  to  fly  a  pennant  from  the  college  building  flag-pole.  The  Juniors,  while 
busy,  as  before  mentioned,  looked  upon  the  raising  of  this  flag  as  a  challenge. 
And,  believing  that  all  work  and  no  play  makes  Jack  a  dull  boy,  they  entered 
a  spirited  contest  with  the  Seniors,  disputing  their  right  to  the  use  of  the  pole 
for  their  flag.  After  tearing  down  two  flags,  and  engaging  in  several  playful 
scufifles,  the  Seniors  were  discouraged  from  making  any  further  displays. 
This  incident  is  one  of  the  many  of  those  Avhich  from  time  to  time  arise, 
breaking  the  monotonous  routine. 

The  Class  of  1929  has  now  covered  more  than  half  the  course.  We  do  not 
lay  claim  to  an}^  special  achievement,  but  we  do  feel  proud  of  our  ability  to 
discern  the  true  purpose  of  our  training — to  be  of  service  to  mankind. 

To  the  faculty  we  wish  to  extend  our  kindest  regards  for  their  help  and 
guidance.  To  our  friends  and  fellow-students  we  feel  a  debt  of  gratitude  for 
the  kindness  they  have  shown,  and  for  their  hearty  co-operation,  without 
which  we  do  not  feel  that  we  could  have  established  such  a  successful  record. 

We  hope  to  continue  along  these  lines,  and  when  we  write  the  final  chapter 
to  our  history  in  the  year  1929,  may  we  say  that  the  task  is  completed  and 
well  done.

Class  Historian.

Some    Junior    Contributions 


By  Reinheimei'. 

She  was  sitting  on  the  Rock  and  Rye  playing  with  her  Gulden  Seal  while 
tlie  White  Oak  and  Peruvian  Barks  of  the  neighboring  dogs  were  l)orne  on 
the  fitful  breeze. 

rier  eyes  -were  G'Kxerine  with  emotion  as  she  nnirniured.  "I  Camphor  to 
see  him — I  Chamomile  to  see  him.  and  still  he  cometh  not." 

But,  ah  !  'Tis  he !  A  youth  leaps  over  a  Rhubarb-wire  fence  and  approaches 
her  with  Penn}-  Royal  steps. 

"Aly  Belladonna!"  cried  he,  as  he  strained  and  filtered  to  her  bosom. 

"Iodide  of  Potash  had  you  not  come  liut  now,  I  Morphine  and  fears  and 
doubts,"  she  sighed. 

"T  Castor  Oil  to  the  wind,"  he  returned,  and  then  with  a  W'inslow  .Sooth- 
ing S\rupy  voice  he  whispered  sweet  nothings  and  slowly  stroked  her  Flax-

Science    Reveals    Itself 


(From  the  junior  Research   La1:)oratories) 

At  last  we  have  solved  the  prolilem  regarding  examinations!  Our  conclu- 
sions Ere  as  follows;  Examinations  are  a  new  species  of  Streptococcus  which 
invades  the  college  occasional!}',  and  to  which  no  student  is  immune.  It  is 
rumored  by  a  member  of  our  class  that  this  micro-organism  originates  among 
the  Facultv.  This  sounds  like  a  reasonable  theory,  and  we  accept  it  as  very 
plausible. 

This  species  of  Streptococcus  feeds  on  the  gray  matter  of  the  brain,  mak- 
ing the  victim  lose  his  powers  of  thought.  We  have  named  the  disease  caused 
by  the  germ,  "Flunkitis".

Through  much  research  by  our  staff  of  laboratory  experts  we  experi- 
mented and  found  two  possible  cures,  one  of  which  seems  almost  certain,  pro- 
viding tlie  germs  are  met  in  the  right  way.  We  call  this  method  of  treatment 
the  '"pony",  and  it  must  be  administered  in  exceedingly  small  and  watchful 
closes  or  disastrous  results  may  be  expected.  The  second  treatment  is  also 
proving  quite  satisfactory.  It  is  called  "the  makeup".  However  it  is  a  little 
more  expensive  than  the  pony,  and  not  as  prompt  and  certain  in  its  action.  But 
we  find  that  both  taken  together  never  fail  to  produce  excellent  results. 

Our  laboratories  are  now  working  day  and  night  to  improve  these  rem- 
edies, and  soon  we  hope  to  give  something  really  remarkable  to  combat  this 
terrible  disease  with. 


AN     EPITAPH

Mary  Ann  Lowder,

FRESHMAN    CLASS    HISTORY 


September  13,  1927 — the  fatal  day-  Ninety-three  hilarious  aspiring  young- 
sters from  every  stage  and  walk  of  Hfe  rushed  to  enroll  as  Freshmen  and  learn 
the  art  of  pill  rolling  and  pop  squirting.  It  was  also  a  fatal  day  for  the  pro- 
fessors of  the  Pill  Rolling  Institution  who  took  upon  themselves  the  almost 
impossible  task  of  pounding  or  otherwise  injecting  knowledge  into  some  very 
nearly  impermeable  heads.  And  it  was  certainly  heart-rending  to  each  student 
to  know  that  he  was  in  again  for  three  more  long  years  of  toil  and  suiTering. 

School-work  proper  liegan  the  following  Monday  at  sun-rise.  The  ex- 
hilarating aspect  was  soon  replaced  by  one  of  dilemma.  During  the  first  lec- 
ture periods  ever}'  "Rhinie"  sat  with  mouth  agape,  staring  into  space  as  the 
professors  languidly  explained  the  theory  of  ionization  and  the  proper  (?) 
way  to  use  the  Era  Key  and  Wright's  Guide. 

Several  weeks  passed  before  anyone  really  knew  what  it  was  all  about. 
But  then  many  of  us  began  to  realize  that  we  would  never  make  the  grade 
unless  we  could  quickly  discover  some  process  of  penetrating  the  cranium 
so  that  knowledge  could  seep  in. 

Time  still  passed,  (as  it  is  in  the  habit  of  doing).  On  November  7,  1927,  an 
announcement  rang  through  the  long  hall  of  the  dormitor}^  or  class-room, 
as  it  is  commonly  known,  that  the  Armistice  Day  football  game  would  be 
staged  between  the  Freshmen  and  the  Junior-Senior  teams  at  the  huge  college 
stadium.  Colors  and  banners  floated  in  the  air  as  the  rioting  crowds  rushed 
to  the  scene  of  the  battle.  Armistice  Day  was  declared  a  holiday  from  school 
as  usual,  and  the  entire  student  body  witnessed  the  conflict.  After  what 
seemed  to  be  hours  and  hours,  the  victory  was  handed  to  the  husky  Fresh- 
man eleven  who  conquered  to  the  tune  of  13  to  0. 

After  the  struggle  was  over.  Freshman  class-spirit  rallied,  and  a  class 
meeting  was  called  for  the  purpose  of  electing  class  ofi^icials.  The  following 
men  were  elected. 

Kenneth   Parker , President 

Lloyd    CuUey Vice-President 

Elsworth  Stucky  and  Edwin  Banta Secretaries 

Ro)'  Ferguson .....Treasurer 

Charles  Ray  Rogers Class  Jester

Then  followed  the  long  winter  months,  the  campus  brightened  \\'ith  a 
white  mantle  of  snow.  .\nd,  of  course,  with  winter  came  Christmas,  and 
every  student  showed  intense  disappointment  when  he  learned  that  there  was 
to  be  a  holiday  vacation.  Then,  after  spending  Christmas  at  home,  each  re- 
turned to  answer  roll  call  and  then  the  nightmare  of  preparing  for  the  final 
exams  was  faced.  The  exams  marked  the  end  of  the  first  semester's  work,  and 
so  we  enter  into  the  second. 

With  the  second  semester,  time  seemed  to  pass  more  rapidly.  Our  work 
kept  us  so  1)US}-  that  \\e  allowed  nothing  of  importance  to  happen  that  is 
worth}"  of  being  recorded  here.  A\'e  are  about  to  reach  the  last  month  of  our 
first  year  at  school  as  this  book  goes  to  press,  and  we  look  forward  to  a  re- 
luctant parting  at  the  end  of  the  term,  but  we  hope  to  return  again  next  Sep- 
tember with  higher  ambitions  and  ideals  than  ever  for  the  future.

The  Higher  the  Lower 


B}-  K.  Parker,  '30 

Ked  Tillman  had  just  informed  the  Pullman  ticket-agent  that  he  wanted 
a  berth. 

"Upper  or  lower?"  asked  the  agent. 

"What's  the  different ?"  cjueried  Red. 

"A  difference  of  fifty  cents  in  this  case,"  replied  the  agent.  "The  lower  is 
higher  than  the  upper.  The  higher  jn-ice  is  for  the  lower.  If  you  want  the 
lower,  }-ou  will  have  to  go  higher.  We  sell  the  uppers  lower  than  the  lower. 
In  other  words,  the  higher  the  lower.  Most  people  don't  like  the  upper  even 
though  it  is  lower,  on  account  of  it  being  higher.  When  you  occupy  an  upper 
you  have  to  get  up  to  go  to  bed,  and  get  down  when  you  get  up." 

Red  decided  to  take  the  upper  because  it  was  lower.

A    TOAST 


By  Sleepy  Crowe,  Freshie. 

Yea !  Seniors ! 

Here's  a  toast  from  the  Freshman  class. 

Also  the  Juniors — 

We  wish  you  the  best. 

You  have  struggled  hard 

To  pass  the  "State" 

But  now  you're  the  graduates  of  '28. 

And  we  are  sure  the  Faculty 

Wishes  you  luck. 

We  hope  we  finish  with  just  as  much  pluck. 

But  in  two  more  years 
You  will  read  in  the  papers 
That  a  hundred  Freshies 
Are  still  cutting  their  capers. 


A    SLIGHT     ERROR 


Girl  (to  drug  clerk) — Can  you  fix  a  dose  of  castor  oil  so  that  it  won't  taste? 

Clerk — Yes  indeed.  Won't  you  have  a  glass  of  soda  while  you  wait?  (Girl 
drinks  soda.) 

Clerk — Anything  else,  miss? 
Girl — Yes,  where  is  the  oil? 

Clerk — Why,  it  was  in  the  soda  you  just  drank. 
Girl — Oh,  but  I  wanted  the  oil  for  my  mother.

PHARMACY    AND    ITS    FUTURE 


It  will  be  obvious  to  all  that  to  predict  the  future  of  Pharmacy  in  an  ac- 
curate manner  would  only  result  in  failure.  However,  some  idea  may  be 
gained  as  to  what  may  reasonably  be  expected  by  the  study  of  the  history 
of  Pharmacy  and  by  consideration  of  the  present  indications.  When  viewed 
in  this  manner,  the  future  seems  bright.  Pharmacists  are  more  alive  and  are 
taking  a  keener  interest  in  the  furthering  of  their  profession  than  ever  before. 
They  have  made  very  fine  progress  along  certain  lines  within  the  last  few 
}-ears  and  are  still  forging  onward. 

During  the  war  the  army  did  not  grant  commissions  to  pharmacists  for 
professional  work,  due.  perhaps  wholl}-  to  the  low  educational  requirement 
then  in  force  for  entrance  to  schools  of  pharmacy.  Should  there  be  another 
war  this  reason,  at  least,  will  not  stand  between  the  pharmacist  and  a  com- 
mission. 

Colleges  now  demand  graduation  from  recognized  high  schools.  The  col- 
lege year  has  been  lengthened  and  the  hours  of  instruction  have  been  in- 
creased. In  many  states,  the  three-}-ear  course  in  Pharmacy  was  efl^ected  in 
the  Fall  of  1925. 

Systems  of  teaching  have  been, changed  in  many  schools  during  the  past 
few  years.  One  of  the  most  practical  steps  in  advance  is  the  general  increase 
in  the  amount  of  laboratory  work  offered  and  required.  Certain  schools  are 
doing  actual  dispensing  work  in  connection  with  hospitals  and  dispensaries. 
Such  work  is  invaluable. 

Another  proposed  advance  in  pharmaceutical  education  is  the  require- 
ment of  a  preparatory  year  of  general  college  work  similar  to  the  pre-medical 
and  pre-dental  courses.  The  minimum  course  in  Pharmacy  would  then  be 
four  years.  The  conditions  in  pharmacy  at  the  present  time  do  not  warrant 
every  man  spending  four  years  at  college  in  order  to  become  a  registered 
pharm.acist.  The  professional  work  at  the  ordinary  drug-store  does  not  re- 
quire it,  and  furthermore  the  financial  returns  are  not  great  enough.  How- 
ever, a  few  schools  of  pharmacy  may  effect  this  change  within  a  short  period 
of  time,  but  in  the  majority  of  cases,  much  will  depend  upon  the  future.

r  ff  t      fHiglnrn 


According  to  all  present  indications,  business  conditions  in  pharmacy  are 
going  to  be  better.  The  legislation  regulating  store  ownership  which  has 
come  into  effect  only  a  short  time  ago  is  obviously  a  great  advantage  to  the 
registered  pharmacist  as  it  means  there  will  be  fewer  stores,  and  therefore, 
less  competition. 

Research  along  phamaceutical  lines  is  being  encouraged.  Price  maintain- 
ence  will  soon  become  a  fact.  There  are  powerful  organizations  of  national 
importance  now  coming  to  the  front  that  are  aljle  to  adequately  protect  the 
pharmacist  and  to  act  as  spokesman  for  him  in  time  of  need.  There  is  an 
awakened  class  interest  and  a  steadily  rising  professional  pride  that  it  is 
pleasing  to  observe.  And  finalh-.  there  is  favorable  publicity  to  counteract 
the  unfair  and  untruthful  criticism  too  often  aimed  at  the  drug-store,  and  the 
pharmacist  is  finding  that  the  pul)lic  is  interested  and  glad  to  learn  that  "the 
druggist  is  more  than  a  merchant." 


Twenty-Third  Psalm  of  a  Pharmacy  Student 


I  have  a  stud}-  in  which  I  shall  not  pass  ; 

It  maketh  me  to  expose  my  ignorance  before  the  class ; 

It  maketh  me  to  write  Rx's  on  the  board  for  my  grade's  sake. 

Yea,  though  I  study  until  midnight  I  shall  gain  no  pharmacy. 

For  doses  bother  me.  and  uses  surely  trouble  me. 

It  prepareth  puzzles  for  me  in  the  presence  of  my  classmates  ; 

Surely  zeroes  and  conditions  will  follow  me  all  the  days  of  mv  life. 

And  I  shall  dwell  in  the  class  of  pharmacy  forever.

IF    YOU    FAIL   AT    PHARMACY 
Try  This 


A  great  many  of  our  pharmacists  that  are  store  owners  express  great  dis- 
content at  the  amount  of  working  capital  allotted  to  them,  and  look  to  other 
fields  to  supply  the  necessary  cash  to  carry  on  their  chosen  vocation.  Also,  it 
might  be  added,  such  a  thing  as  the  failure  of  a  store  is  not  unknown  in  busi- 
ness antials.  Therefore,  we  offer  to  those  in  need  of  such,  a  proposition  which 
cannol  fail.  The  profit  is  the  unearned  increment,  and  the  working  basis  is 
simply  "let  nature  take  its  course."  So  here  we  present  our  prospectus  for  a 
bread-winning  goose-farm. 

Rather  than  go  into  a  detailed  discussion  of  the  merits  and  correctness  of 
the  various  figures  mentioned  herein,  we  will  merely  outline  a  statement  in 
condensed  form,  which,  however,  is  as  accurate  as  possible,  since  it  has  been 
prepared  for  us  by  the  research  departments  of  Bradstreet  and  Dunn,  Wall 
Street,  Pioneer  Goose  Raising  Farms,  Inc.,  and  Hart,  Schafifner  and  Marx. 

To  begin  with,  it  is  necessary  to  incorporate,  and  offer  for  sale  two  of  the 
shares,  holding  a  one-third  interest  yourself.  Thus  you  are  enabled  to  enjo)^ 
the  advantages  of  a  corporation.  Furthermore,  before  starting,  it  is  well  to 
consider  the  following  factors.  First,  time  is  very  important — you  must  not 
try  to  hasten  results.  Second,  an  instinctive  humane  attitude  toward  animals 
is  absoluteiv  necessary  so  that  you  can  sense  the  feelings  of  the  fowls  upon 
which  vour  success  or  failure  depends,  and  give  them  every  consideration  and 
attention.  For  instance,  you  must  remember  that  a  goose  is  very  sensitive, 
and  does  not  like  to  be  caught  in  embarrassing  and  humiliating  situations. 
Thus  you  will  have  to  learn  to  ring  a  bell  as  you  come  into  their  presence. 
But  in  spite  of  all  these  precautions,  should  it  be  that  the  geese  of  your  farm 
take  a  dislike  to  you  and  threaten  to  mutiny,  simply  act  nonchalant  and  at- 
tempt to  divert  their  minds  by  entertainment  of  some  sort  or  other.  Fall  out 
of  a  tree  or  off  a  fence  if  necessary'.  Nothing  is  more  stimulating  to  a  goose 
than  a  good  hearty  laugh  and  a  cheerful,  happy  environment. 

When  you  have  set  your  mind  on  entering  this  lucrative  and  interesting 
business,  the  first  step  is  to  find  two  congenial  men  who  you  feel  will  make 
honest  and  reliable  partners.  Then  show  them  this  outline  which  I  have  ap- 
pended, watch  their  expressions  of  amazement  and  their  smiles  of  satisfaction 
and  starl  incorporating  at  once.  Don't  hesitate,  for  time  is  money.

THE      FACULTY 


Of  course  we'll  start  with  Dean  Niks 

We  don't  know  what  to  say 
We'll  jnst  say  that  he's  excellent 

That's  about  the  only  way. 

And  then  we'll  take  Prof.  Wagener 

He's  plenty  tough  we  guess 
And  tho'  he  gave  us  Pharmacy 

We  like  him  none  the  less. 

Prof.  Edwards  is  fine,  and  yet  they  say 

His  lessons  are  so  very  long 
But  maybe  they're  allright  too; 

The  Seniors  could  be  wrong. 

McDonald  has  the  lab  this  year 

He  drives  a  Chevrolet 
He  bought  it  on  the  installment  plan 

And  makes  payments  every  Saturday. 

Prof.  Dufendach  gives  us  Chemistry 

He  takes  the  prize  bouquet 
Whether  you're  wrong  or  whether  you're   right 

He  has  very  little  to  say. 

Prof.  Borst  is  a  fine  old  scout 

His  morals  are  of  the  best. 
"Now  I  want  to  be  honest  with  you  boys", 

Uncle  Harry  at  his  best.

THE    HISTORY    OF    PHARMACY 


Few  people  realize  that  Pharmacy  is  such  an  old  science  as  it  really  is. 
Records  showing  knowledge  of  the  subject  extend  back  for  centuries  and 
centuries,  almost  as  far  as  history  itself.  The  beginnings  of  both  medicine  and 
pharmacy  are  so  very  closely  interwovn  that  it  is  difficult  to  separate  them. 
The  first  real  manuscript  pertaining  to  pharmacy  is  the  papyrus,  or  scroll, 
called  "Papyrus  Ebers",  after  the  famous  Egyptologist  by  that  name,  who 
discovered  it  and  partially  translated  it. 

The  Papyrus  Ebers  is  a  continuous  roll  of  manuscript  aljout  twelve  inches 
wide  and  over  two  hundred  fifty  feet  in  length.  It  dates  from  about  the  six- 
teenth century  before  Christ,  or,  l)efore  the  time  of  Moses.  It  contains  chap- 
ters not  only  on  remedial  agents  and  their  methods  of  compounding,  but  also 
on  ways  of  conjuring  away  diseases.  Alany  of  the  drugs  mentioned  are  in 
common  use  today. 

Poly-pharmacy,  or  the  practice  of  prescribing  a  multiplicitj-  of  ingredients 
in  one  compound,  seems  to  have  been  in  vogue  in  those  earl}-  days.  Some  of 
the  formulas  contain  as  many  as  thirt}--five  ingredients.  The  writing  of  the 
Pap3-rus  was  done  in  black  ink,  but  the  chapter  heads  on  weights  and  meas- 
ures are  in  red  ink.  Evidence  that  many  of  the  formulas  were  used  is  found 
on  the  margins  of  the  sheet,  where  a  commentator,  or  possibly  some  ancient 
apothecary,  has  written  the  A\-ord  "good". 

Scientific  pharmacy  and  medicine  really  began  with  Hippocrates.  Hip- 
pocrates was  a  keen  thinker,  accurate  observer,  and  a  clear  and  concise  writer, 
tie  said,  among  other  things,  "Life  is  short,  opportunity  fleeting,  judgment 
difficult,  treatment  eas}- :  l)ut  treatment  after  thought  is  proper  and  profit- 
able." In  the  writings  of  Hippocrates  nearly  four  hundred  drugs  were  named 
as  medicines,  and  a  large  number  of  these  are  still  used.  He  directed  and  em- 
ployed preparations  belonging  to  the  classes  of  poultices,  gargles,  pills,  oint- 
ments and  inhalations. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  Christian  Era  there  were  several  Greeks  and 
Romans  whose  names  stood  out  prominently.  Celsus,  a  Roman,  was  the  com- 
piler  of  an   encyclopedia   of   medicine.   Dioscorides,   a   Greek   phvsician.   was 


Page  eighty-five 


r  1^  t      pi  t  g  t  ti  r  a 


especially  noted  for  his  work  on  Materia  Aledica,  and  was  the  recognized 
authority  on  that  subject  for  over  1600  years.  PHng,  a  Roman,  was  the  author 
of  an  encyclopedic  work  on  natural  history,  in  which  he  included  medicine 
and  pharmacy.  Galen,  another  Greek,  was  both  a  ph}-sician  and  a  pharmacist. 
He  originated  so  many  simple,  non-chemical  preparations  of  \'egetable  drugs 
that  }-et  toda}-,  such  compounds  are  called  "galenicals"  or  "galenical  prep- 
arations." 

Pharmacies  as  separate  establishments  ^vhere  drugs  were  compounded 
and  sold  were  first  instituted  during  the  Arabian  period.  Among  the  Arabians 
who  attained  great  fame  in  medicine  were  Giber  and  Mesui  of  the  eighth  cen- 
tury A.  D.,  and  Rhazes  and  Arericinna  of  the  ninth  centui"y.  Most  famous, 
ho\\e\er,  is  Alaimomides.  who  was  the  author  of  a  manuscript  having  much 
influerice  upon  pharmaceutical  ethics. 

During  the  eleventh  century,  the  period  of  the  Crusades  began  and  had  a 
remarkably  stimulating  influence  upon  all  scientific  research  and  professional 
knowledge.  During  the  period  in  which  the  Araljs  had  dominated,  great 
schools  had  been  founded  at  Salerno,  Cordova,  Seville  and  Toledo.  These 
were  followed  by  others  at  Montpelier,  Padua  and  Leyden.  In  these  schools, 
pharmacy  was  taught  as  a  part  of  medicine.  The  first  authentic  record  of 
separation  of  pharmacy  and  medicine  is  found  in  a  decree  of  the  Emperor 
Frederick  II  of  Sicih',  who,  in  1233,  just  after  the  close  of  the  Crusades,  issued 
an  edict  regulating  the  practice  of  pharmacy  in  his  kingdom.  The  law  men- 
tions the  '  apotheca"  as  being  warehouses  where  drugs  and  medicines  were 
stored.  The  compounders  of  medicines  were  called  "confectionarii",  while  the 
mere  retailers  of  simple  medicines  were  termed  "stationarii".  and  the  shops 
"stntiones".  Ph}sicians  were  neither  permitted  to  conduct  pharmacies,  nor 
to  derive  any  ])rofit  from  the  sale  of  medicines  1\\-  an)-  clandestine  arrange- 
ment with  a  confectionarius.  The  confectionarii.  in  turn,  were  required  to 
take  an  oath  to  prepare  all  medicines  according  to  the  formulary  of  the  Saler- 
nian  School.  The  prices  which  they  were  permitted  to  charge  were  regulated 
by  law.  and  were  so  graduated  as  to  permit  greater  proportional  profit  on  sub- 
stances less  frequently  used. 

Pharmacies  were  permitted  only  in  the  principal  cities,  and  even  then 
under  enforced  restriction  as  to  management  and  responsibility.  This  un- 
doubtedly marked  the  beginning  of  laws  regarding  the  practice  of  pharmacy, 
and  these  restrictions  are  still  maintained  in  many  European  countries.

The  first  organized  body  of  pharmacists  met  in  Bruges,  Belgium  in  1297. 
It  was  in  the  nature  of  a  secret  society,  and  was  possessed  of  a  hall,  a  con- 
stitution and  an  official  seal.  This  was  during  the  period  of  the  guilds,  as  pro- 
fessional and  trade  organizations  were  called.  Other  guilds,  or  organizations 
of  apothecaries  were  formed  in  all  parts  of  Europe,  and  are  the  proto-types 
of  the  pharmaceutical  organizations  of  today. 

During  the  fifteenth,  sixteenth,  and  seventeenth  centuries  pharmacy  prob- 
ably reached  its  zenith  as  a  mysterious  art.  The  rarity  and  cost  of  the  raw 
materials,  the  many  difficult  and  tedious  processes  which  had  to  be  followed 
to  prepare  even  the  simplest  medicines  all  combined  to  make  the  apothecary 
a  person  not  onl)^  of  great  technical  skill,  liut  one  who  was  absolutely  indis- 
pensible  to  the  success  of  the  physician. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  in  some  countries,  particularly  England  and 
France,  pharmacies  and  groceries  were  conducted  as  one  trade.  This  condi- 
tion was  changed,  however,  when  apothecary  guilds  were  formed  under  royal 
sanction,  separating  the  ]iliarmacist  and  grocer  b\-  law.    -• 

Carl  Wilhelm  Schule  was  a  distinguished  pharmacist  of  the  eighteenth 
centur}'.  Schule  is  credited  with  having  made  more  important  discoveries 
covering  a  wider  range  of  subjects  than  an}-  other  investigator  before  or 
since. 

During  this  period,  works  for  the  guidance  of  apothecaries  and  physicians 
liegan  to  appear  under  the  names  of  "formularies'"  and  "idiarmacopoeias." 
These  were  issued  by  separate  groups  or  communities. 

Pharmaceutical  education  had  developed  to  a  considerable  extent  in 
Europe  before  a  school  appeared  in  America.  Finally,  the  Philadelphia  Col- 
lege of  Pharmacy  was  organized,  and  now  stands  as  the  oldest  and  best 
known  school  in  the  country.  ,\t  the  present  date,  schools  are  scattered  all 
over  the  United  States. 

The  practice  of  Pharmacy  in  so  far  as  its  external  appearance  is  concerned 
has  changed  markedly  during  the  periods  so  briefly  outlined  here,  and  even 
greater  changes  have  come  in  the  last  few  decades.  Since  the  beginning  of 
the  niiicteenth  century,  Pharmacy  has  taken  great  strides  along  scientific 
lines,  and  even  today,  each  year  brings  new  and  marvelous  discoveries  to  the 
modern  pharmacist,  who,  with  the  aid  of  the  physician,  passes  them  on  to  the 


Page  eighty-teven 


mml        g  i»  t    m  t  g  I  It  r  a         \^ 


public.  Each  successive  edition  of  the  United  States  Pharmacopoeia  and  Na- 
tional Formulary  brings  to  our  mind  more  clearly  what  is  being  accomplished 
in  modern  Pharmacy. 

There  are  now  departments  of  government  in  each  state  which  have  solely 
to  do  with  the  regulation  of  the  practice  of  Pharmacy.  These,  with  the  Fed- 
eral Pure  Food  and  Drugs  Act,  show  the  advances  made  along  these  lines, 
and  insure  the  importance  and  standing  of  Pharmacy  in  the  future.

Freshmen-Senior    Basketball,    March    29,    1928 


March  29,  1928 

The  Seniors  defeated  the  Freshman  squad  in  a  clean,  well-fought  game 
on  March  29,  1928,  by  a  score  of  63  to  25.  The  game  was  played  at  the  South 
Side  Turner's  gym. 

The  game  opened  with  Haag  getting  the  tip-of¥  and  the  Seniors  losing  the 
ball  to  Crowe,  who  scored  the  first  field  goal.  In  the  first  few  minutes  of  play 
the  ball  went  back  and  forth  between  the  opposing  teams  constantly,  the 
Freshmen  fighting  like  the  game  meant  as  much  to  them  as  passing  a  Phar- 
macy exam.  The  Seniors  scored  and  the  Rhinies  scored  again  until  the  score 
stood  4  to  2  in  favor  of  the  Frosh.  Then,  as  was  expected,  the  Rhinies  began 
to  weaken  under  the  onslaught  of  the  upperclass  men,  and  then  the  Seniors 
began  to  put  the  ball  through  the  ring  like  boys  playing  marbles. 

Sprandel  closed  his  eyes  and  scored  every  time  he  got  near  the  I^asket. 
He  led  his  team  with  eleven  field  goals  and  Haag  was  next  with  nine.  Durkee 
was  not  connecting  as  usual,  but  nevertheless,  the  half  ended  with  the  mark- 
ers at  27  to  12  in  favor  of  the  Seniors. 

The  last  half  opened  with  a  volley  of  shots  from  Sprandel,  Haag  and  Dur- 
kee that  fairl)-  took  the  Freshies'  breath.  Lamborn  and  Crowe  starred  for 
the  Freshmen,  but  it  was  more  than  they  could  take  care  of  to  put  the  Senior 
squad  behind  after  they  had  once  gained  a  lead.  The  rest  of  the  game  con- 
tinued as  had  the  first,  and  the  upperclasamen  succeeded  in  smothering  the 
Rhinies  under  the  large  score  named  above.  However,  we  sincerel}-  trust  that 
by  the  time  the  Freshmen  have  reached  the  position  of  Seniors,  they  will  be 
able  to  do  much  better.

ODE    TO    THE    COLLEGE 


Three  sore  years  ago,  our  fathers  sent  forth  upon  this  college 
fifty-t\\'o  rhinies.  conceived  at  liberty,  and  dedicated  tu  the 
proposition  that  all  rhinies  are  not  so  dumb. 

Now  we  are  engaged  in  a  great  pharmaceutical  war,  testing 
whether  a  lunch  counter  in  a  drug  store  can  long  endure.  We  are 
met  in  a  great  College  for  that  war.  We  are  met  to  dedicate  a 
portion  of  the  campus  as  a  final  resting  place  for  those  rhinies 
who  here  gave  up  success  that  the  rest  of  the  Senior  class  might 
live.   It  was  altogether  fitting  and  necessary-  that  they  do  this. 

But  in  a  larger  sense,  we  cannot  dedicate,  we  cannot  conse- 
crate, we  cannot  hallow  this  ground. 

If  the  brave  students,  dropped  out  b}-  request,  had  put  forth 
a  little  more  efifort,  they  might  still  have  the  pri\ilege  of  work- 
ing gas  problems  under  Professor  AN'agener. 

The  Faculty  will  little  note,  nor  long  remember  what  we  say 
here,  but  how  could  the}'  ever  forget  what  we  have  done  here? 

It  is  rather  for  us,  the  Seniors  no\\-  facing  the  great  worldly 
task  remaining  before  us,  that  we  take  increased  devotion  to  the 
Facult)^  and  to  the  cause  for  \\-hich  they  gave  their  last  full 
measure  of  devotion,  that  we  here  highly  resolve  that  this  col- 
lege, under  the  present  Faculty,  shall  have  in  its  future  the  best 
of  success,  and  that  this  college,  of  the  students,  by  the  students, 
and  for  the  students,  shall  not  perish  from  the  earth.

IOTA    GAMMA    PI 


The  friendshii)  and  intcrdepeiulencies  that  result  from  dail}-  association, 
especially  in  such  a  school  as  our  Alma  Mater,  often  call  for  a  much  closer 
alliance.  Such  was  the  case  when,  in  nineteen  and  twenty-six,  the  Senior  class 
of  that  year  brought  into  existence  Iota  Gamma  Pi  fraternal  order. 

Realizing"  that  nothing  can  exist  without  ideals,  the  ne\\ly  formed  fra- 
ternity dedicated  itself  to  the  advancement  of  Pharmac}-  as  one  of  the  newer 
professions,  as  well  as  to  promote  the  social  and  business  life  of  its  members. 

The  ofTicers  wdio  guided  the  order  through  the  days  of  its  infancy  were 
Faust,  Seaton,  Maxwell,  McDonald  and  Green.  To  these  men,  and  to  the 
other  brothers,  who  gave  them  substantial  backing,  we  owe  our  foundation, 
and  the  tenets  of  our  present  organization. 

During  the  following  two  years,  we  are  proud  to  say  that  the  greater  pro- 
portion of  the  brotherhood  was  from  the  class  of  '28.  Visions  of  a  permanent 
fraternal  home,  and  a  charter  with  a  national  group  surged  through  the  mind 
of  each  loyal  member,  and  we  were  spurred  into  activity  by  the  weekly  "pep" 
meetings,  but  it  seemed  that  all  our  plans  were  destined  to  hang  fire.  But  we 
still  chng  to  oiu-  dreams,  and  have  high  hopes  of  seeing  them  realized  at  some 
future  time. 

Nearing  the  end  of  our  three  years  of  association,  we  can  still,  however, 
look  back  with  pride  on  our  successes,  and  let  these  outshine  our  shortcom- 
ings in  other  directions.  We  sponsored  a  very  successful  dance  near  the  close 
of  the  twenty-seventh  school  year,  given  in  honor  of  a  group  of  pledges  who 
had  passed  through  our  preliminary  initiations  and  were  well  on  the  way 
toward  a  full  brotherhood.  During  this  same  year,  a  co-operative  plan  of  ob- 
taining rooms  made  it  possible  for  a  number  of  the  boys  to  live  in  the  same 
house.  This  established  a  firmer  bond  than  ever,  and  through  this  association, 
many  enduring  ties  of  friendship  were  formed. 

And  now  we,  the  brothers  of  the  class  of  '28  move  on,  and  leave  behind  us 
the  earnest  desire  that  our  aims  and  plans  will  be  carried  on  indefinitely  by 
those  who  will  succeed  us.

BETA     ALPHA 


The  Beta  Alpha  Club  comprises  twenty-eight  members  of  the  Senior  class. 
It  was  organized  shortly  after  the  opening  of  school  by  an  enthusiastic  group 
of  Seniors  who  felt  the  necessity  for  a  new  social  club.  At  one  of  the  class 
meetings  the  matter  was  brought  up,  and  a  motion  made  and  seconded  to 
form  a  new  organization. 

A  club  meeting  was  held  and  the  name  "Beta  Alpha  Club"  definitely  de- 
cided upon.  The  original  Beta  Alpha  Clul)  had  been  a  very  active  organiza- 
tion among  the  students  a  few  years  back,  and  this  new  club  was  to  be  a  con- 
tinuation of  the  old  one.  upholding  the  standards  and  principles  of  the  old 
group.  C)tficers  were  elected  after  a  very  heated  discussion  in  which  "Herbie" 
Bohn  almost  lost  an  ear. 

The  club  sponsored  a  movement  for  a  spirit  of  better  fellowship  and  co- 
operation among  the  student  body.  Its  aim  was  fully  accomplished  and  the 
club  made  rapid  progress  during  the  last  lap  of  the  members'  schooling.  As 
the  club  is  composed  onh'  of  Senior  members,  graduation  will  mean  the  term- 
ination of  the  work  started  in  good  faith,  and  it  is  hoped  that  next  year's  class 
will  take  up  the  torch,  and  not  allow  Beta  Alpha  to  completely  dissolve  as  an 
orgfanization. 


KAPPA    PSl    FRATERNITY 


Kappa  Psi,  the  national  pharmaceutical  fraternity,  enjoys  a  representation 
at  Indianai)olis  College  of  Pharmacy,  through  four  students  Avho  have  come 
to  us  from  other  schools  where  they  were  members  of  a  chapter.  The  fol- 
lowing men,  our  fellow  students,  wear  the  pin  of  Kappa  Psi: 


Truman   Shirley 
Joseph  Flaherty

SOCIETY 


All  work  and  no  play,  'tis  said,  makes  Jack  a  dull  boy.  Certainly,  then, 
there  is  no  excuse  for  our  having  taxed  the  patience  of  our  professors  by 
being  dull,  for  this  class  of  '28  has  had  plenty  of  play  in  its  three  years  of 
school  life. 

We,  as  verdant  Freshmen,  were  bidden  by  the  Seniors  to  a  frolic  at  the 
school,  in  celebration  of  Hallowe'en,  1925.  A  big  time  was  had  by  all,  and  es- 
pecially some  of  the  "studes",  who  are  said  to  have  been  "stewed". 

On  March  26,  1926,  an  event  of  great  importance  to  at  least  one  member 
of  our  class  took  place.  George  Ebert  had  fallen  a  victim  of  Cupid's  weapons, 
and  on  this  date,  the  marriage  of  Miss  Lavinnia  Wilhelm,  of  Indianapolis, 
to  Mr.  Ebert  took  place.  The  couple  was  married  at  the  home  of  the  bride's 
parents,  where  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Ebert  are  now  living. 

At  Easter  time,  the  Seniors  again  started  the  gay  social  whirl  by  giving 
a  dance  in  the  newly  decorated  Oriental  Room  at  the  Spink-Arms  Hotel.  Paul 
McCartha}^  and  his  orchestra  supplied  the  music,  which  was  rated  "plenty 
good."  During  the  intermission,  Jim  Haddon,  famous  Charleston  king,  stirred 
the  enthusiasm  of  the  entire  assembly  by  his  perfect  execution  of  the  most 
difficult  steps.  ■ 

The  approaching  end  of  the  school  year  brought  with  it  the  annual  fare- 
well dance,  given  in  honor  of  the  graduating  class.  We,  as  Freshmen,  were 
hosts  for  this  gala  event  which  took  place  at  the  new  Indianapolis  Elks' 
club.  It  was  one  of  those  nights  which  come  only  in  Ma)'  and  everyone  seemed 
to  catch  the  mood.  This  dance  was  one  of  the  most  successful  we  have  ever 
had.  The  Livingston-Philips  Orchestra  supplied  the  music  for  which  they  are 
famous,  and  many  a  neophyte  was  initiated  into  the  mysteries  of  the  Charles- 
ton and  the  "Low-down"  during  the  evening.  Exhibition  dance  numbers  were 
given  during  intermission  by  "Wing"  Phillips,  popular  local  entertainer,  and 
leader  of  the  orchestra.  Favors  for  the  ladies  were  shoulder-bouquets  of 
sweet-peas,  and  all  our  "dates"  seemed  more  than  pleased. 

After  the  last  saxophone's  wail  had  died  away  there  was  a  general  rush  for 
the  gas  buggies  parked  around  the  club.  All  left  for  home  in  high  spirits,  but 
misfortune,  in  the  form  of  an  inadvertantly  placed  traffic  signal,  halted  the 
flight  of  one  of  our  popular  class-mates,  Joe  Eisenhut,  wrecking  his  machine 
and  doing  other  violent  damage  to  his  person.  The  factors  leading  up  to  the 


Page  one  hundred  six 


r  1^  t      |«  I  g  f  tt  r  a 


accident  have  never  been  fully  ascertained,  but  class  wise-acres  who  attended 
the  dance  have  conveyed  much  with  a  "wink"  of  the  eye.  After  a  brief  period 
in  the  hospital,  Jo  was  back  in  our  midst  and  in  plenty  of  time  for  exams. 

On  June  5,  1926,  just  a  few  days  after  the  close  of  school,  Elizabeth  Davy, 
of  Indianapolis,  and  Robert  Vestal,  '28,  were  married  at  Christ  Church,  the 
little  Episcopal  Church  on  the  Circle.  After  a  wedding  trip  they  were  at 
home  in  the  Lynn  Apartments,  on  North  Meridian  Street. 

Social  activities  seemed  to  lag  sadly  in  the  early  part  of  our  Junior  year. 
Could  it  have  been  that  the  matrimonial  efforts  of  our  colleagues  had  a  de- 
pressing effect  on  remaining  members,  causing  them  to  cast  a  wary  eye  to  the 
future?  Certainly  they  seemed  unwilling  to  give  the  girls  a  chance,  and  it 
was  not  until  April,  1927,  that  we  got  together  and  gave  a  dance.  However, 
this  Spring  function  seemed  to  make  up  for  lost  time.  True  to  our  custom,  we 
Juniors,  who  were  hosts,  found  the  very  newest  place  in  town  to  have  our 
prom.  The  club-rooms  of  the  recently  completed  Chamber  of  Commerce 
building  were  the  scene  of  this  revel.  Music  was  furnished  by  Brown's  Ver- 
satile Orchestra,  an  organization  of  colored  harmonizers.  The  weather  failed 
to  smile  on  us,  and  staged  instead  a  special  program  of  rain,  snow,  sleet  and 
"what  have  you?"  Indoors,  however,  all  was  gayety  and  even  hilarity.  As 
the  evening  progressed,  it  seemed  that  the  punch  was  becoming  more  and 
more  pre- Volstead.  'Tis  said  that  several  fair  ones  found  it  necessarj^  to 
drive  their  swains'  automobiles  home  due  to  the  unsteady  state  of  the 
escorts,  but  all  agreed  it  was  better  than  walking. 

May  19,  1927,  found  us  all  elated  at  the  acquisition  of  a  ''nephew",  son  of 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  George  Ebert.  Much  back-slapping  and  handshaking  took  place 
around  school,  and  it  was  some  little  time  before  George  was  able  to  resume 
anything  resembling  his  usual  placid  routine  of  study. 

During  our  summer  vacation  period,  between  the  junior  and  senior  years, 
and  on  the  date  of  August  5,  1927,  another  member  of  our  class  succumbed, 
for  on  that  date  Miss  LaVonne  Beeson,  of  Columbia  City,  and  ]\lr.  Horace 
Cutshall  of  Huntington,  stole  a  march  on  ever>-one,  and  were  married  at 
Joliet,  Illinois.  Thus  fell  the  third  victim  to  the  great  god.  Hymen. 

The  Fall  of  1927  was  for  the  most  part  uneventful  until  the  latter  part  of 
November.  At  this  time,  those  of  us  who  are  paying  for  our  education  by 
clerking  in  local  drug-stores  were  the  guests  of  Eli  Lill)^  and  Company.  We 
met  for  luncheon  at  the  Indianapolis  Athletic  Club,  where  we  were  greeted 
by  Mr.  J.  K.  Lilly,  president  of  the  company,  and  Mr.  Nicholas  Noyes,  treas- 
urer, both  of  whom  made  informal  talks.  The  lunch  hour  passed  very  pleas- 

Page  one  hundred  seven 


r  1^  t      pi  t  0  I  It  r  a 


antly,  and  after  coffee  and  cigars  had  been  served,  we  were  taken  to  the  Lilly 
plant  for  a  tour  of  inspection.  A  very  satisfactory  and  educational  afternoon 
was  spent.  We  left  the  laboratories  with  an  even  greater  regard  for  our 
friends  whci  so  kindly  made  this  trip  possible. 

On  the  last  school  day  preceding  the  Christmas  holidays,  our  classes  gave 
a  dance  for  the  underclassmen.  The  Chamber  of  Commerce  had  so  impressed 
us  when  last  there  that  it  was  chosen  as  the  scene  for  the  Yuletide  affair. 
Music  was  supplied  by  Guy  Montani  and  his  "Wee  Band."  The  impending 
holidays  made  the  occasion  even  more  gay,  and  one  to  be  long  remembered. 

And  now,  as  time  seems  to  speed  toward  the  date  when  the  class  of  '28 
joins  the  ranks  of  the  Alumni,  we  look  forward  to  graduation.  In  the  interval 
between,  we  shall  expect  the  underclassmen  to  follow  tradition  by  honoring 
us  with  a  farewell  dance.  With  that  affair,  the  book  of  Society  must  close, 
and  this  dance,  too,  will  sweep  past  into  history. 

So  venerable  and  sedate  have  we  become  by  now  that  we  read  the  ''Diary 
of  Samuel  Pepys"  in  our  lighter  moments.  Paraphrasing  that  estimable 
gentleman,  this  scribe  might  now  say,  "Home  in  great  haste,  for  the  most 
high  editor-in-chief  hath  this  day  decreed  that  this  copy  must  lay  upon  his 
desk  by  early  morn,  else  we  shall  be  hanged,  or  condemned  to  a  life-sentence 
at  flag-pole  sitting.  Therefore,  we  quit  our  desk  at  an  unseemly  hour,  and 
so  to  bed."

Ebert — Not  a  word,  Professor,  so  am  L

Speaking  of  beards,  it  has  been  heard  that  the  photographer  sent  War-

OPPORTUNITY! 


Pharmacy  is  interesting  work.  A  thorough  training.  An 
uncrowded  profession.  We  cannot  supply  the  demand  for  our 
graduates. 

A  broad  geographic  field ;  you  can  locate  in  the  East  or 
West,  North  or  South,  in  the  largest  cities  or  small  towns ; 
Pharmacists  are  always  in  demand.  The  modern  pharmacist 
is  more  than  a  merchant.  He  is  a  high  school  graduate;  he 
attends  college.  He  holds  a  high  position  in  his  community. 
Graduate  pharmacists  average  from  81,500  to  83,000  per  year 
as  clerks.  When  they  become  proprietors,  the  possibilities  for 
success  are  unlimited.  And  their  lives  are  independent.  An 
engineer  or  teacher  works  for  an  employer,  always  facing  the 
possibility  of  losing  his  place.  A  Physician,  Dentist,  or  Vet- 
erinarian takes  a  much  longer  and  more  expensive  college 
course  than  a  Pharmacist.  He  must  work  for  years  to  build 
up  a  practice,  and  then  he  cannot  sell  it  or  even  take  a  long 
vacation  leaving  his  business  to  run  successfully  while  he  is 
away.  A  Pharmacist  can  sell  his  business  and  locate  in  a  new 
town  or  state  and  may  establish  himself  in  a  few  weeks. 

Chemistry  is  the  major  part  of  the  Pharmacy  course.  The 
work  is  fascinating,  with  wonderful  opportunities  for  origin- 
ality and  development  of  ideas  which  may  lead  to  the  highest 
professional  and  financial  success. 


Send  NOW  for  our  catalog  and  information  regarding 
this  interesting  profession.
