Ontario Camp-Meeting

By Wm. GUTHRIE

The Ontario Conference was held September 8-18. We found an earnest desire to see the message rapidly carried to the uttermost parts of the earth. This meeting was smaller than usual, on account of the lateness of the time; but small as it was, the people all testified that they had not attended such a good meeting in years. A spirit of unity pervaded the camp, and the Lord was present to give victory over sin.
From first to last the message given seemed to be just what was needed for the good of all present. Hearts were touched, and sins confessed and put away. From every quarter came the note of courage. The meeting was a success from the beginning.
We greatly appreciated the good help that was furnished us from the General Conference. The messages of these brethren were timely, and brought courage to the hearts of all.
The question of the $300,000 Fund was taken up the last Sunday of the meeting, and almost the entire quota was pledged to be paid in before the close of the year. There were but one hundred persons present, and the amount raised equaled $18.10 for each one,—$1,810 in all. This conference will raise more than the amount asked of them, when the field has all been canvassed. The officers of the conference were re-elected, and all returned to their homes full of courage and faith. Reports show encouraging results from the work done during the present year, and we look for greater things in the year to come.
Wm. GUTHRIE.
