Sir William Osler LL.D. will give an illustrated lecture on the "Oxford University Press" in the New Lecture Hall this evening at 8.15 o'clock. Sir William Osler is a graduate of Trinity College, Toronto, and has received many degrees from American and English institutions including that of LL.D. from Harvard in 1904 when he was Ingersoll lecturer speaking on "Science and Immortality."
