NOTED PRELATE HERE SUNDAY

ARCHBISHOP OF YORK WILL HOLD SUNDAY SERVICES IN SANDERS.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Archbishop of York, the English prelate who is in this country on a special war mission, will include the University in his itinerary. He will conduct Sunday services in Sanders Theatre on March 10, next Sunday. Cambridge is the only town in the vicinity of Boston at which the visiting dignitary will speak.

The Archbishop, who is the most Reverend Cosmo Gordon Lang, D.D., D.C.L., LL.D., D.L.H., arrived in New York City on last Friday in response to the invitation of the war commission of the Protestant Episcopal Church in this country, seconded by Ambassador Page, and he will remain for a visit of seven weeks. He is to preach in most of the large Eastern cities and will visit a few of the older universities. His principal mission in the United States is to emphasize the importance which the help of America has been to the Allied cause and to appeal to Americans to strengthen and maintain that contribution.

Spoke in New York.

Archbishop Lang, who is the first of the 89 Archbishops of York to cross the seas to America, spoke in New York on Sunday before two large congregations which filled the Cathedral of St. John the Divine to capacity, and in both cases crowds almost as large as the audiences themselves were turned away long before the service began. The Archbishop is a Fellow and Dean of Divinity of Magdalen College, Oxford, and was honorable chaplain to Queen Victoria. He was appointed to his present high position of Archbishop of York in 1908.
