Concluding the series of eight Charles Eliot Norton Lectures on poetry which he has been giving at intervals throughout the fall and winter, Heathcote William Garrod, at one time Professor of Poetry at Oxford, will speak tonight on "Matthew Arnold as Critic." The talk will take place in the Fogg Large Lecture Room at 8 o'clock.

Professor Garrod is at present a Fellow of Merton College, Oxford, having been a member of Balliol as a student, and of Corpus Christi as a tutor. A Fellow of the Royal Society, he has also been Commander, since 1918, of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. In 1912 he edited the Oxford. Book of Latin Verse, and has written books of criticism on Keats, Collins and Wordsworth. He was at one time editor of the Journal of Philology.

The Charles Eliot Norton Chair, established by C. C. Stillman '98, was first held in 1926-27 by Professor Gilbert Murray, Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford. He was succeeded in the following year by Professor E. R. D. Maclagan, Director and Secretary of the Victoria and Albert Museum of London. Last year the chair remained vacant.

The complete list of the Norton Lectures of this year follows: one on "Poetry and the Teaching Art," two on "Matthew Arnold," one on "Emerson," one on "Arthur Hugh Clough," one on "Methods of Criticism in Poetry," one on Robert Bridges "The Testament of Beauty," and the last on "Matthew Arnold as Critic."
