To their great joy the three Langham children have been taken by their grand-parents to stay for the summer holidays in a farmhouse up in the mountains in North Wales. They have each been given a proper alpenstock and a rucksack, and have had rheir very first lessons in mountaineering. Cousin Beta still remains a bit of a problem, but they have made the acquaintance of the delightful Professor Sheldon, who seems to have taken rather a fancy to them.

Talk by Daniel George
The speaker examines, in a light-hearted way, the many Daniel Georges he sees in himself; the highbrow, the lowbrow, the kind and the caddish, the generous and the mean. He finds so many selves, in fact, that he is inclined to exclaim with the old woman in the nursery rhyme 'Lawk a mercy on me, this be none of I.'
