TAYLOR TO SPEAK THIS WEEK ON PHILOSOPHY

Henry Osborne Taylor '78, prominent writer on culture and philosophy in history, and author of "The Mediaeval Mind," will lecture tomorrow and Thursday in Emerson D at 4 o'clock on the subject "Fact: the Romance of the Mind."

Dr. Taylor went into the profession of law, after his graduation from Harvard and Columbia Universities, which he followed for considerable time. After about 25 years before the bar he became interested in the study of philosophy and science in history and has since produced voluminous works on thought and culture in different ages.

From the solitude of his estate in Connecticut Dr. Taylor has written expositions of the development of thought belief, and culture. Since he confines himself so exclusively to writing Dr. Taylor does not hold any professorship in any university and lectures but rarely. He was the Lowell lecturer at Harvard in 1917 and the West lecturer in Leland Stanford University in 1920. He has spoken occasionally before the National Institute of Arts and Letters of which he is a member. Tomorrow he will discuss "Primitive Strain and Religion" and on Thursday will speak on "Fact in Art and Science."
