Pharmakon Gesina A. F. De Hole, B.S., M.A. Instructor in Bacteriology and Serology The time-honored reputation of Southern cordiality is demonstrated to us by Miss De Holl. Master of her work, responsive to study and daily experience as the supervisor cf the bacteriological unit of the Bender Laboratory, she repre- sents an authority and is teemed as such by her pupils. Her background of general laboratory knowledge brings forth those evcr-rcady and satisfying answers; her characteristic sense of humor brings forth that evcr-weicome and refreshing sm;le. Sumner B. Cotzin. B.S.. Ph.D. Professor of Chemistry Organic Chemistry- is a fool-proof test of the possesion, or otherwise, of patience, mainly on the part of the professor. Dr. Cotzin survives the test admirably. With a knowledge of the subject which he presents, comes one also of the difficulties encountered by his students and his tireless repetition brings to him a grateful response. Katherine E. Glavin, Registrar All things gravitate to and from the main office and thus our associations with Miss Glavin are many and frequent. We find her always ready to be of service and cheerfully so. Her efficiency docs not permit of careess leniency but of patient inducement to compliance; her pleasing manner and sympa- thetic attitude are more than appreciated by those of us with whom she comes in contact.

Alembic Harold W. Blodgett, A.B., A.M., Ph.D. Instructor in English Ever patient in his endeavors at evoking proper diction and grammatical accuracy, Dr. Blodgett presents a study of serenity and sincerity to his students. They appreciate his tolerance and efforts to make them glib in both oral and written English, and we arc certain these efforts have not been fruitless. Chester J. Terrill, Pd.B., B.A., M.A. Instructor in Accounting Professor Terrill’s training of the students in accuracy, in conjunction with the business subjects of pharmacy, will not be confined to figures, but transferred to the scrupulous pre- cision required of one in the art of prescription compounding. He is thus to be lauded for the formation of this all-important characteristic in our future pharmacists. John J. Glemmer, B.S., M.D. Director of Bender Laboratory and Professor of Pathology The Bender Laboratory, offering Medical Technology stu- dies and affiliated bacteriological work, is ably guided by Dr. Clcmmcr, its director. His desire to engage the interest of the students in acquisition of knowledge rather than credits, reveal a sincere interest in propagating to society such a benevolent work. He imparts this spirit to his co-workers, who thus uni- fied, present a correlated series of instructions. Fourteen

Jesse F. Stinard, A.B., A.M. Instructor in German Since pharmacal studies are almost exclusively scientific, they embrace even a scientific language, of which Professor Stinard is the capable master. His kindly manner and con- sistent class procedures render more facile that which would otherwise prove so difficult an undertaking for those whom he instructs. Dr. William J. Martin, Jr., Ph.G., M.D. Instructor in Zoology Uncle Sam has requested the services of this competent local physician who is also a representative member of our faculty. The nature of his leave of absence will but raise our admiration of him and will make more jubilant the reassuming of his for- mer duties. Dr. Martin's conscientious endeavors in behalf of our education result in systematic teaching and comprehensive learning. Arthur G. Kemnitzf.r, B.S. Instructor in Biochemistry and Sterilization Exactitude in detail represents efficiency in scientific study. The careful supervision of our work by Mr. Kemnitzer de- manded and encouraged such procedures, for which training we are duly grateful to him. Ilis precision and accuracy in calculations while lecturing or demonstrating, inspired in us a confidence in his ability. Self-confidence on our parts auto- matically resulted, and through this we felt the satisfaction of accomplishment. Alexander A. Kosinski, B.A., M.D. As instructor in one. of the most practical “Bender1’ courses, Dr. Kosinski is afforded an opportunity for giving a compre- hensive insight to the work to be embraced by the medical technologists. His lucid presentations of subject matter and his requesting rather than commanding attitude, win for him the cooperation of the students. John J. Marra, B.S., M.S., M.D. Instructor in Hematology Dr. Marra is the type of person one delights in meeting often. Ilis quiet, friendly bearing manifests outwardly an innote kindliness. These admirable traits make our sessions with him a pleasure and render us more receptive to his instructions. With him, continuous practical experiencing of what is taught constitutes no small asset to such a profession. Sixteen
