Is Subject of Talk
by Professor Nelson
English Scenes Are Considerer Most Beautiful in World by Writers
"The Lake Country has a personally "precariously its own" J. H.

"It has been considered by some as the most beautiful country, sexually, of my in the world, not excepting it."
"Until a hundred years ago," Professor Nelson continued, "the English Lake Country has had little or no history. There one is not able to see enriched monuments to great men, nor has that country produced, but it has done. It has a fictional family, as well known it is rich, however." Professor Nelson went on, "in folk lore and customs. There too are the ballads which are recited rather than sang, and which deal with local traditions. A few have been written down by Seizo Worinworth and other writers in the twenty-first century of Watermore" here is the subject of many dramatic nicer.
"The Lake Country has great natural beauty," Professor Nelson explained, "with its 16 lakes, many glens and waterfalls.

It is, in fact, a retreat for modern writers as well as an established route for tourists. Under the influence of M. J.

Altogether, Professor Larremore said, it was an interesting and successful trip.

Co-Op Book Store Improper Activity, Says W. W. Davis
People of State Would Be Unfriendly to Scheme,
Is Professor's Belief
"Any such scheme as the proposed co-operative book store, which involves selling merchandise on the campus, will involve the University in mercantile activities, which people throughout the state will consider engaging in." University," according to W. D. Davis of history at the University.
"A similar plan has failed at the University of Nebraska and the University of Missouri, and will probably result in poor service and bankruptcy if installed here. It took the University of South Dakota 12 years to perfect their system, and during that time they did not pay interest on their stock. In some states this is a criminal offense," Professor Davis said.
"Would Displease Alumni"
Professor Davis also said that he knew many alumni and others in the state who are friendly to the University who work there. "The university is very community oriented," "They feel that students are here for other things than to engage in a business venture, and that they already have activities outside of classroom work.
"The whole scheme is visionary and improbable," Professor Davis said, "besides being entirely unnecessary. When an enterprise is现代化 now, and there is no legitimate reason why amateurs should attempt a venture that is carried on already in a business manner by those who are professional business."
Student Body Unstable
"The student body is a passing one with an average time spent at the University which is less than four years. A changing group cannot be expected to support a stable interest such as the co-operative book store would have to be to attain any measure of success.
"A policy of electing the student managers of the book store could mean nothing but disaster," he said. "The election would immediately be a popular issue or a political issue, as all other student executives must be on board and unsuited to a large business undertaking would be in charge.
"There is no need for this additional activity," Professor Davis said, "If students would go to school, and members of the faculty would attend to their own business, everyone would be more satisfied."
