SERMON TO ODD-FELLOWs.
DR.. NandcrsIice breaches TO the
Member of This Order.


a very large congregation assembled
| at demonstration church Sunday to hear
Rev. DR.. Vanderslice. who had been re-
! quested by Unity Lodge. Independent
Order OF Odd-Feiows. to preach a spe-
cial sermon on Odd-Fellowship in COM
memoration of the seventy-sixth anniver-
sary OF the order.
Dr. Vancerslice took as his text Ga

burdens. and so fulfil the law Of Christ.

in the beginning, he said, but If good
and true viii grow with increasing might

while the r!ghtful heir sleep In the ground,
but the ghost of the murdered victim
Will visit the festive hall and disturb the
feast and haunt the living
There must be some assicnable reason
for the existence and growth of odd
Fellowship. which was organized in the
city of Baltimore, April &c, 1919, by a
few humble mechanics. and founded on
the cardinal principles of Friendship,
Love, and Truth"
Its existence grows out of the mutual
dependence Of men on each other, and
the more enlightened and cultured they
are the more dependent they will be-
In union. he continued, there is power
not only TO tighten burdens, but to ac-
complish results. one hundred men one al
a time might not be able to lift l.W
pounds. but all at once could readily bear
1t away.
In America there are about ten thou
sand lodges that have paid to the sick
about 81 10000: to widows. 100000, and
for fureral expresses of about 500 mem
bers. 10000: aggrogating about sG0,oo0.0J0
in sixty years.
In Virginia there are about 1000 mem
bers, that contributed $4,000 10 the order
during this time: $1,000 was paid out for
relief
Odd-Fellowship Is one of the bulwarks
OF American institutions. Let it be threat
ered from whatever direction il may,
an army Of 10000 men, or more. will
spring to It's defence.
The sermon was listened to with deep
attention by the large audience present.
and ut its close the Doctor was congratu-
lated highly for the excellent discourse.
