Since leaving Queen's College, Oxford, in 1907 Dean Sperry has kept in close touch with his university and is anticipating pleasant spring in the enviorons of Oxford. After he has completed the Psex Hall lecture he plans to spend the summer traveling through England and on the continent accompanied by his family.

No decision has yet been reached as to who will occupy Dean Sperry's place in the Theological school during the second half year.

Last night Dean Sperry spoke to 300 graduate students at the meeting of the Graduate School Society of Phillips Brooks House. He first touched upon the fact that one of the great transitions of a man's life is when he ceases to become an undergraduate and takes up graduate work at another university. He stated that the most important decisions of a man's life were made in these transition periods and that his success depended upon emerging safely from these dangerous ages.

The religious life of the University was Dean Sperry's next topic. Although to the average newly arrived student there seems to be little or no attention given to religion, the dean stated that the interest was quite intense. It was not only his own experience but that of visiting preachers as well that the students in Appleton Chapel were the most attentive and the most pleasing to address of those in any college on the Atlantic coast.

Other speakers at the gathering were Dean C. H. Moore '89, of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and Dean Roscoe Pound of the Law School. The Harvard Glee Club furnished entertainment between each of the addresses, and refreshments were served at the close of the evening.
