Dorothy entertained the Y. S. C. S. this mornin by reading to the students on e of the Rabbit Lantern stories.   In the afternoon I went up to School, got our stereopticon, brought it back and set it up in Ferguson's big room, attended part of a Council meeting, an then hurried over to Ferguson's to run the slides for Perceval Landon's lecture on Nepal.  He had specially requested that I assist him, and I was very glad to do it both for thim and for the Institute of Fine Arts.

When it was over I came home, and Dorothy and Louise and I took the dogs and went for a walk on the wall.  The moon came up behind the Hatamen while we were walking, and it was a glorious sight. Lou came back and had supper with us.

"Arthur, what will you offer?" Hummel agreed to offer a lecture course on a Critical Approach to Chinese History, and a seminar on Chinese Sources for Historay. "Lucius, what will you offer?" "Two seminars- one on the Survey of Chinese Thinking, and the other on Mo Tzu."  "Ben, what will you offer?" The use of the library."  But I did not get by with that alone, so agreed to give ten lectures on Chinese painting. There will be course in Wen Li, and other subjects,
