This week we will begin extracting selected items from the OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRTY-SIXTH ANNUAL CONVENTION OF THE TEXAS PHARMCEUTICAL ASSOCIATION, HELD IN HOUSTON, TEXAS, JUNE 15, 16, 17, 1915. The volume was published in Dallas by the Johnston Printing & Adv. Co. (sic), probably in 1915. (Surnames are capitalized for emphasis.)
Two group photographs of some of the people attending the convention are on page 2. Unfortunately, they do not furnish names of the individuals.
Individual pictures of four officers of the Texas Pharmaceutical Association appear on page 16:

The report of A. M. FISCHER, also listed as First Vice-President, is reproduced on pages 18-19. Fischer stated that Sam HARBEN “moved that a committee of three be appointed to take charge of the President’s address and submit a report.” The motion was seconded by J. T. COULSON. The chair then named H. L. CARLETON, John WEEKS, and W. C. BURNS as the members of the committee.
