The first of the lectures in the annual course in Religion offered by the Phillips Brooks House will be given on Sunday afternoon, when W. B. Munro '99, Jonathan Trumbull Professor of American History and Government, will talk on "Religion and State" in Peabody. Hall at 4 o'clock. Opportunity will be offered for written questions.
These Sunday afternoon gatherings were started three years ago under the auspices of the Graduate Schools Society and have proved very popular. Eminent men, including the late President Eliot and Professor Emeritus George Herbert Palmer '64, have spoken in former meetings, and their talks have recently been published by Charles Scribner's Sons under that title of "Religion and Modern Life."
The symposiums included in this volume, which were held from 1924 to 1926, included talks by President Eliot, Professor George Herbert Palmer, Bishop O. L. Slattery '91, Professor R. C. Cabot '89, Professor T. N. Carver, Dean Roscoe Pound Hon, '20; and Professor W. E. Hocking '01.
Some of these lectures were practical, others speculative; some were informative, and others provocative of discussion as shown by the number of questions and answers which were appended to them.
