the Rexali Drug Companr, a concern' >|
kouwn all over the entire world.
Mr. Worthy speaks in glowing terms
of hie outing, and tells some facU.
that no doubt wlU "be" of interest to
the readers of this paper. In talking
to a representative of the Daily
News Mr. Worthy said "that there aB
were delegates p^sent from every
state in the Union, aiso Canada, Eng ~jjB

From North Carolina there '"were

Air?Worthy, u m morn largely pep? -jS

Special trains had to be provided to
carry the delegates and for four
day3 the Hub city was simply alive
with representatives of the? Rexalf
people from' all over the world. It JjB
was one of the greatest gatherings
of druggists ever In the history of
Boston.
The convention was held in the
Mechanics building with a seating
capacity of 10,000 and the welcoming
Address was delivered by Mayor
Fitzgerald. whoso, address, says Mr.
Worthy, was unique and catcby. The ,
spoaker. .prefaced his. fine.lalk with - ----??9
a vocal solo "Sweet Adeline" through
a megaphone?this stur.: simply took
the delegates by storm.
The object ot the convention was
to inform the druggists, who are

from the city ten days, four of
which ho spent in Boston attending:
this great gathering of representative
druggists. The convention meet
once a year and next year the delegates
will be entertained In Montre- *19
al. Canada.
Kot only were the business se6ion?
of the convention delightful and instructive.
sars Mr. Worthy, but the
social features as arranged were
just simply gorgeous. Not only did.
tho Roaall Company xio -tbeiuselfgr ??
proud as entertainers but the City
of Boston left no stone unturned for
this pSrt of the program. The first
day the delegates were served wish
an elaborate luncheon and at night
a grand operatic concert at the Symphony
Hall when four of the best
vocalists In the United States took
part. The ladies attending the con.

night the ladies were given a
theater party and the men -a mammoth
smoker in the echanies bulldThe
feature of the third day was m I
visit to Nantasket Beach which had
been' leased for the special occasion.
Here the delegates were treated to |
inch attractions as eatables, served
in the Palm garden, surf bathing,
cabaret show, dancing, fire works
and other novel entertainments. The . -jl
closing feature of the great gather- j|
ing was the annual banquet at the
Mechanics building. * i ^ '>f9
While in New York Mr. Worthy Jl
lad the pleasure of visiting the Liggett
Drug store at the corner of
Broadway and Thirty-fourth street, '
reputed to be the llnest store of th? i
kind in the United States. This con:ern
does an enormous business. Mr. jS
