Professor W. F. Osgood to Read Paper at Opening Meeting

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Harvard Mathematical Club will hold its first meeting of the present year in the Common Room of Conant Hall at 8 o'clock tonight.

The speaker for the evening will be Professor William Fogg Osgood '86, who will present a paper entitled "Wierstrass" Second Theorem on implicit functions".

Professor Osgood is author of several textbooks and a number of monographs on mathematical subjects, and has taught the advanced branches of the subject at the University since 1890, being made a full professor in 1903.

The Mathematical Club meets fortnightly throughout the year; and at these meetings papers on subjects of general interest are presented and discussed. Any student who has taken or is taking a course in Mathematics not regularly open to Freshmen is eligible to membership in the club. A special effort is made to have a good proportion of the papers of such a nature that they will be of interest to students taking courses of intermediate grade.

Refreshments will be served after the meeting and all members of the University interested in mathematical subjects of this nature are cordially invited to attend.
