Assyrian Readings.

Professor Lyon gave the last of the series of five Assyrian Readings in the Fogg Museum yesterday afternoon on Assyrian Prayers. After the reading proper, he made an appeal for the erection of a building for the Department of Semetic Languages and History. Plans for the proposed building drawn by R. C. Sturgis, Boston, were shown upon the screen. The Department has been promised $25,000 provided it can obtain $25,000 more. Professor Lyon said that at least $100,000 would be necessary to provide such a building.
