I Miley M. Pope, Director of Social

;starts out by saying: “In 1915,
S when Alaska enacted a law for

I ward old age assistance was ini

i with legislation for old age as

1931 Legislatures for consideration.
Many of the earlier projects show
ed an experimental attitude, but
all agree in certain basic points.
Need is the first requirement in
every State, as the applicant must
be unable to maintain himself,

Why be handicapped with unsightly

T-i£ Pharmacist who waits on you at the neigh'
borhood drugstore belongs to a profession which
has done much through scientific investigation to ah
leviate human ills.
Dr. Long* of Georgia, among the first to relieve the
horrors of surgery with ether, was a pharmacist as
well as a physician. Liebig the great German chemist
was a pharmacist's apprentice. In a pharmacy was bom
the great Paris Academy of Science. And there are
the achievements of Baume, Scheele, Davy, Maisch
and many others.
Striving to maintain their heritage from these dis
tinguished men, thousands of neighborhood druggists
are unstintingly giving time, skill, and sympathetic
cooperation to the community, while keeping abreast
of modern scientific progress.
However, few pharmacies can be maintained on
professional work alone. Keep one in your neighbor
hood by giving it a fair share of your purchases of such
every-day household needs as you find displayed there.
