the period of Hippocrates. According to Mr. Jacob it wasn't until Hippocrates, Father of Medcine came along (460-377 BC» that any data was gathered or records kept. In the interim up to the present century not too much had been done in medicine. Now in the 20th Century many breakthroughs have come about • Salk vaccine for Polio - Preventatives for diptheria, measles, to name but a few. The discovery of the sulfonamides about 1928 and penicillin in 1941. Properly ha ndi«i all of these m«“dicines save thousan s and thousands of lives. Millions of dollars are being spent by the drug companies throughout the world. Research is the biggest part of their business. The physician, the pharamcist and the drug companies work hand in hand to safeguard the health of the people. Following the talk given by Mahlon Jacob. Glenn Jacob, a new member of the pharmacist group in the local drug store, gave an interesting account of what is now required of a pharmacist. The course for a pharmacist is five years; two of these years are spent in general tiaining, the remaining three in the professional school. After the completion of the required course the graduate must have 1040 hours under th«* supervision of a registere I pharmacist. He must then pass the State Board Examination. In order to take the State Board he order to take the State Board he must show that he has graduated from an accredited school, be 21 years of age. and have a letter of recommendations as to his moral character.

consist of five examinations. The graduate must have an overall average of 75 or repeat the test. At the conclusion of Mr. Glenn Jacob's talk a film on the Marketing of Drugs was shown. It was in watching this film that one could appreciate what it means when you swallow one little pill. The compounding ot the drug must prove itself before it is offered to the public to insure its effectiveness and safety. The pharmacist must check to be certain that prescribed drugs can safely be used simultaneously. We came away from the meeting a better informed group; recognizing the need of the physician to diagnose and prescribe. and the ability of the pharmacist to fulfill the piescript ion from the medicine supplie 1 by the drug companies. We concluded that it was a stupendous undertaking and that we owe much to our physicians, pharmacists and drug companies. The foregoing was the principal subject at the October 6th meeting of the Walkerton Community Woman s Club. Each lady was delighted when at the dose of the program she received a jar of hand cream and a bottle of perfume from our speakers.
