Co-op Store Here
an interview yesterday afternoon
R. B. Cowin, iinstructor in the
>mics department, a few of the
:ies of a co-operative store, as
advocated in a recent editorial of
Daily, were fully discussed from
arious standpoints.
:ording to Mr. Cowin the first co-
.tive store for students were or-
ed in 1887, under the advisement
. Prettyman. The store was a
e owing to the lack of sufficient
al and a capable manager.'
1906 another venture was made
this line, which lived only two
. Here again the lack of capital
nish an up-to-date store was evi-
and the competition from other
i with larger supplies made the
pt a failure.
en asked for his main objections
o-operative store, Mr. Cowin stat-
at such a store was not desirable
se there is no particular need,
the prices on books at catalogue
s are lower or as low as can be
ied anywhere. In addition to
se stated that such an organiza-
would be unable to keep back
ers to any extent; it would ne-
ate a keen business manager,
lerable capital, and the salaries
se employed to operate the store
amount to a large sum.
ure," conceived the plans for the pro-
duction, they recognized that speed
was wanted, so they directed the writ-
ers to pay no attention to traffic ordi-
nances. As a result, when the show
was ready to be put on, the managers
discovered that the excellent company
had carried out the instructions to the
letter, and that the singing, dancing,
comedy, and scenic effects surpassed
any previous production of its kind.
The cast includes Rosie Quinn, Conroy
and Le Maire, the comedians, and the
success, "The Elopers" is the head-
liner. The musical numbers are up
to date and the cast is headed by Miss
Jessie Maker and Teddy and Nellie
McNamara. The act is staged in an
elaborate manner and many changes of
costume are made.

With its galaxy of stars, Irving Ber-

"Watch Your Step," will be presented
at the Whitney theater, Tuesday, Dec.

syncopated life and its music cannotPE
be compared with that of any similar p

he wrote the words and music for the
