college in view rather than the welfare of any group or organization in which he is interested. If we are to have fraternities, let them serve the purpose for which ffiey were originally created. Let us hope that the fraternities will not henceforth concern themselves with matters that affect the college as a whole. Let there be fraternity in the real sense of the word among all students. Ethel Naumoff ’17. pjarmariat nnb flrcggre twag One of the most important questions for discussion and action before the American public to-day is that of preparedness. Colleges, preparatory schools and in fact nearly all institutions of learning throughout the country have joined hands and at the present time are in the midst of efficient preparation. These preparations consist mainly of a military training for the purpose of giving the attending students a knowledge of modern warfare. In the Pharmacy colleges, however, there is a seemingly different atti- tude. From outside appearances one would imagine that the main object of the institution was to produce men capable only of slaving in some pharmacy for a period of twelve or more hours daily. This, however, is not so. Should the United States of America be called upon to defend the rights so gloriously attained by our forefathers, it is a certainty that that flame of patriotism present in the heart of every true American would burst forth in the hearts of the pharmacists and they would enlist in one or the other branch of the service. True, they would not shoulder a musket, but they would he prepared to labor heroically under the most trying conditions, carrying out the instruc- tions of the surgeon to the minutest detail. It is to this end that the Pharm- acy colleges of the country are striving, trying to make each man an efficient unit in the nation-wide movement of preparedness. R. F.. C. T8. 28
