DEMAND FOR GOOD PHARMACISTS.
On another page mention is made of the difficulty one man has been
having in securing good men for pharmaceutical positions, and this is
only one instance of many that have occurred during the past year.
Employers who are willing to pay first-class salaries to good men
have been unable to get them, the supply being not nearly up to the
demand. For a number of years all of the best men of the graduating
class have been engaged long before they had completed their course in
college, the medium grade men have been easily placed, and even the
poorest students have had little difficulty in getting fair positions
and holding them. The only men who have had any great difficulty in
securing satisfactory berths have been those who have been too lazy
to work, or who have had other traits of general character that no
employer would wish in any of his employes. Never in the history
of the College has there been a better demand for first-class men,
and it is doubtful if there ever has been a time when there were so
few good men available. Despite the pessimism that exists in the
minds of some people as to lack of opportunity for a young man to
advance in pharmacy, it is a fact that there are still many excellent
opportunities for those who are ambitious enough to fit themselves for
good positions. There is no room in any business for the shiftless and
lazy.--_Bulletin of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy._
