Rev. Joseph H. Odell
Will Speak in Wolf Hall
Tomorrow

On Thursday morning at $50 a..
m. Rev. Joseph H. Odell who has
lately returned from visit to
France, will address the S. A. T. c..
Of Delaware College in Wolf Hall.
Interested townspeople are cor
dially invited to hear Mr.. Odell
who has been secured to address a
meeting in Wilmington and
through interested friends has
been induced to come to Newark.
Mr.. Odell is pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church of Troy, N.
" whose vigorous appeal to his
brethren in Peter Sat by the Fire
Warming HIMSELF" aroused varied
emotions. He has written for the
current number of Atlantic
Monthly an unusual article en-
titled Spiritual Realities and
High Explosives" wherein he
gives a searching analysis of the
effect of war experiences on sec
tarianism. what concerns men
over there" he says, "is not the
differentiations but the few vital
elements which all men hold in
common"
To illustrate his point he des-
cribes in detail the work and spirit
of the Y. M. G. A. as the agency
through which this new mood
works most fully. He tells, too, of
the morale conserving service
rendered by the Knights of Colum-
bus, the Y. w. c. A., the Salvation
Army and other organizations
which, he states, are knitted to-
gether "as an organism if not as
an organization"
