Dante Exhibition to Open Sunday

Mr. George A. Plimpton, senior partner of Ginn and Company, the New York publishing firm, will open an exhibition of early textbooks and manuscripts contemporary with Dante in the Treasure Room of the Widener Library at four o'clock on Sunday afternoon, when he will give a short talk on "The Education of Dante". The lecture will be open to the public.

The works on exhibition are the result of Mr. Plimpton's many years of collecting in this field. Books from which Dante probably gained his early education are included. The entire collection may be seen throughout next week.
