Through the influence of Dr. Laughlin the students will be favored next Friday evening with a lecture by Walter H. Page of the New York World. The lecture will be "A Statement of Southern Problems," and will embrace the following topics: The industrial situation and outlook, the changes in agricultural methods made by free labor, the progress of manufactures since the war, the resources of the South. It will also touch upon the peculiar social results of the overthrow of the old society, especially as it has changed the position of women, and, as a corollary to this, the educational work and needs. The subject of the lecture is an interesting one, as the question of labor in the South is a live topic of the day with which every one should be acquainted. Moreover, Mr. Page being a Southern gentleman and an ex-fellow of Johns Hopkins University, has experience and ability which will add much to the weight of his opinion.
