Dean Greenough will give the first of the newly instituted lectures for English A at 2 o'clock this afternoon in the New Lecture Hall. The subject upon which he will speak is "Education and Harvard College". In connection with this lecture the members of the course will be required to read Emerson's essay on the American scholar and finally to write a theme dealing with the subject treated in both the lecture and the reading.
