DR. CHARLES W. GILKEY TO BE MOORE LECTURER

The Reverend Charles W. Gilkey, D.D., pastor of the Hyde Park Baptist Church in Chicago, has accepted an invitation to deliver in Hanover during the week of May 3 this year's series of lectures of The. Dartmouth Alumni Lectureships on the Guernsey Center Moore Foundation. Dr. Gilkey will give four lectures, beginning, May 3, on "The Orient," speaking particularly of India. The subjects of the lectures will be "India from an American Point of View," "America from an Indian Point of View," "Mahatma Gandhi" and "Students East and West."

Dr. Gilkey, who is well known as a leading minister and a most interesting speaker, has had intimate acquaintanceship with India and Indian affairs, and last year spent six months in that country as the Barrows Lecturer on Christianity, speaking to large gatherings in Calcutta, Bombay, Madras, Lahore and Rangoon. During this period he met with the Indian leaders and with groups of Indian students daily, gaining an insight to the life and thought of the country which enables him to interpret India as few other Americans can.

Since his graduation from Harvard in 1903, Dr. Gilkey has taken a prominent place among ministers interested in college and university affairs and in student life, and has served as a university preacher at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Cornell, Chicago, Toronto, Wellesley and other institutions. He is a Trus- tee of the University of Chicago and of the Grenfell Association of Chicago.

Dr. Gilkey received his A.M. Degree from Harvard in 1904 and his B.D. from Union Theological Seminary in 1908. His honorary degrees include the D.D., bestowed upon him by Williams in 1925. Following the completion of his Theological School work and his ordination into the Baptist ministry in 1910, Dr. Gilkey studied at the Universities of Berlin and Marburg, at the United Free Church College, Glasgow, at New College, Edinburg, and at Oxford. He became pastor of the Hyde Park Baptist Church, of Chicago, in 1910.
