CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION TO HEAR FAMOUS "TOC H" MAN

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Reverend P. B. Clayton, famous British war chaplain and founder of the "Toc H" movement, will be the principal speaker at a dinner of the Harvard Christian Association, to be held in Phillips Brooks House on March 11.

"Toc H", derives from the signalman's method of transmitting "T" over the telephone, and is an abbreviation for Talbot House. Gilbert Talbot was a brilliant young Englishman, and at his death in the war a community house was founded to carry out the principles for which Talbot died. Chaplain Clayton was in charge of this movement, and after the war transferred it to England where he has worked ever since trying to establish the "Toc H" principle of practical Christianity. Having founded seventy "Toc H" centers in England, he is now making a trip around the world to explain the principles of the movement and to create interest in it.
