Professor J. L. Lowes will preside at the meeting, which will be open to members of the University and their men guests only and Professors J. S. P. Tatlock '96; H. E. Collins, and K. B. Murdock 16 will be present at a small dinner to be given beforehand in honor of Mr. Tomlinson by the Union and the English Department.

Mr. Tomlinson has come to the United States chiefly through the efforts of his publishers, who have just put out his first novel. "Galleons Reach." This book has enjoyed considerable fame and has put Tomlinson in the opinion of many in the same position that Joseph Conrad held when his novel "Chance" was published after 20 years of writing.
