P.B.H. LISTS SEVENTY SPEAKERS ON RELIGION

Course, Similar to That of Last Year Held in Peabody Hall, to Have Many New Lecturers

A lecture course on religious subjects, similar to that which was given last year, has been announced by the Phillips Brooks House for this year. An attempt has again been made to secure the most prominent speakers possible, and to arrange the lectures in such a way that the subject of religion may be treated from as many different angles as possible.

The lectures will again be given under the direction of the Graduate Schools Society of the Phillips Brooks House. They will be held on Sunday afternoons at 4 o'clock in Peabody Hall and will be open only to members of the University.

Great Success Last Year

The unprecedented success of these meetings last year, which drew an average attendance of over 300, explains the renewal of the series. Of the score of lecturers included in the series last year, Professors Kirsopp Lake, F. G. Peabody, G. F. Moore, J. H. Woods, and Dean Sperry are the only men who will be presented again this year.

The list of lectures follows:
