Belief in God Necessary for Success, Dodge Average Student Doesn’t Believe in Personal Diety, He Thinks Courage o f Convictions Urged by “Y” Worker Why (lo young people and older people go wrong? What does the average university student think of God? Does he think of a God or my God? These were some of the ques tions advanced by Harry E. Dodge, secretary of the Fall River (Mass.) Y. M. C. A., in a lecture at the Y hut last night. “Young people and older people go wrong because religion has no large place in their lives. One must give religion a place in life,” Dodge declared. “When one speaks of a personal God, he is talking language that the average college student doesn’t know.” When Mr. Dodge heard this statement made by one of his friends he disbelieved it. At the time he had a son who was attentding the University of Illinois, and he asked him about it. After talking with many of his friends on the way to and from the campus, his son de cided that the statement was true, Dodge said. “What do you think of God? Do you think of a God or my God?” the speaker asked, pointing his fin jger at the audience. “Christ IfT worth more to me than he ever was in my life. Cultivate the presence of God. It’s a matter of faith. But give God a chance and if I come back 25 years from now and see you in the audienne you will be among the successful men and wom en in the community,” he said, tell ing of the success which many fam ous business and professional men had met, through God A high type of morals, certain convictions for which one stands, and a conviction of a personal God, were three things which Mr. Dodge held necessary for a successful life. Success doesn’t mean dollars. Forty millionaiires who were questioned about money and happiness, declar ed that a man who couldn’t be hap py without money could not be hap py with money. We all want to be successful, but money will not make us happy, Dodge declared. “You university students, cspec ially, need a high type of morals And the University and the town need leadership. Every place needs more leaders,” he said. “Be honest with yourself,” the speaker urged. “One must studj after he gets out of college. You have to compete with men in Yale anel Harvard and . universities all over the country, therefore be lion est in your studies and give yoursell a square deal.” “Have certain convictions anc stand for them. You will suffer foi your convictions, but you will win in the end. It is hard to do when the crowds go the other way. The hardest thing to do is to tell the truth. A lie is never justifiable,” hi declared. “Give yourself a chance to dc something for someone else,” Dodg< urged, in concluding, “(live God s chance and you will come through.’ The speaker was introduced b\ .Tack Hempstead, varsity debater who also announced a lecture bj Lincoln T.

Dodge Sees No Let Down in Spiritual Life of Modern Young Man The great majority of college stu-1 dents of today ring just as spirit- . ually true as did those of yester day, emphasized Robert E. Dodge, recently retired Y. M. C. A. secre tary, of Fall River, Massachusetts. This idea that youth is rising to throw off fundamental standards being wrong, he thinks. “If anything makes me see red,”, he continued, “it’s this loose news paper talk and conversation by 40 vear old men in Pullman cars, hotels and clubs that college youths, in general, are going to the devil. It’s a damnable lie. Of course there are some fool college students. Why shouldn’t there be when they have fool fathers! Of course there are some college students who drink. Why shouldn’t they when their fathers and other men of their father’s ages drink?” The big business on Main street in industry and professional life is paying more hard cold cash to day for character than ever before, Mr. Dodge pointed out, an example being the Metropolitan theater of New York which, in hiring ushers, stresses physique, education, person ality and especially character. Young men and women, he continued, are bonded by surety houses on char acter. “One of - the greatest forces for good today is amateur athletics in college,” he commented. “If the ethics of amateur sports in college could dominate the business of to day, the whole plane of business would take a great rise.” Mr. Dodge, after 36 years as Y. M. C. A. secretary at Fall River, Mass., retired October 2, 1926. On this trip he plans to travel 9500 miles and to deliver 200 addresses in eleven weeks. During the World War he travelled 20,000 miles, visit ed 50 army camps and naval bases and spoke 185 times.
