Prof, and Mrs. Taylor spent the greater
part of the summer in Colorado. Prof. Taylor
did not rest much, even while taking his out
ing, but pursued his study and investigation
in Political and Economic Science. His work
was mostly confined to reading. His only
contribution to the press was a criticism of
the "Outlines of Economic Theory" by Her
bert Joseph Davenport. This criticism ap
pears in the Journal of Political Economy for
September. While the criticism includes gen
eral comment on the book of Prof. Davenport,
il especially discusses "Value," "Effectual
Demand," "Utility" and "Exchange Value."
It is just such contributions as these that
bring our University into prominence. While
this is only a minor contribution of Prof.
Taylor's, yet it makes students in the Politi
cal Science department realize more fully that
Prof. Taylor is a credit to the University.
Prof. Taylor did not resume his department
work until last Friday. Scarcely had he re
turned from Colorado before he was called to
New York by the death of his sister. His
father, having died last winter. Prof. Taylor
was compelled to remain some time with his
mother and attend to business connected with
his father's estate. Prof. Taylor's mother
will make her home with Prof, and Mrs.
Taylor.
