Third Lecture by Mr. C. S. Peirce

Mr. Charles Sander Peirce '59 will deliver the third of his series of six public lectures on "Pragmatism as a Principle and Method of Right thinking" in Sever 11 this evening at 8 o'clock. The subject for tonight is "The Application of the Category to Pragmatism." The lecture will consist almost wholly of a defence of all three categories discussed in the last lecture. These categories, or largest classes into which objects of knowledge can be systematically arranged, are sensation, perception, and though. One or more of these categories are defended by the different schools of metaphysics and Mr. Peirce defends all three. As this third lecture depends greatly upon the second lecture, all who missed the second lecture, all who missed the second lecture would do well to get the manuscript of it at 34 Felton Hall before attending the lecture tonight.
