Northern Illinois Conference

By G. E. Langdon; H. E. Moon

Our date for camp-meeting came in the midst of the tent season, so it was thought best to drop the camp-meeting, and have a general meeting in connection with the conference, November 1-10, in the South Side church, Chicago, 58 East Forty-sixth St., between Indiana and State Street car lines.

A committee has been appointed to secure rooms as near the church as possible for those who send in their names. If some have friends with whom they can arrange for rooms beforehand, it will make less work for the committee.

A lunch-counter will be conducted in the basement of the church, where all may obtain warm hygienic food at a moderate price.

The General Conference has promised efficient and abundant help. Elder Allen Moon and others from the Lake Union will be in attendance. Elder K. C. Russell, city evangelist, will be with us. We are planning for a large attendance, and praying for great spiritual blessings. Begin now to lay plans to come, and help others plan. These meetings cost something, but their value can not be estimated.

Friday, November 1, at 2 P. M., will be the opening meeting. Officers for the conference, for the Northern Illinois Conference Association (legal corporation), the Fox River Academy board of managers, and the Tri-City Sanitarium board of managers will be elected during this session. One conference session will be held each day, and the other meetings will be devoted to preaching, to Bible studies, and to educational, Sabbath-school, young people's, and colportage work, and to other spiritual interests.

An educational and Missionary Volunteer rally will be held Sunday, November 10, to which all are invited to remain.

Let the churches be prompt in electing delegates to the conference and in sending in the names to the secretary—one delegate for each church organization, and one additional delegate for each fifteen members. Remember to elect a few alternates. Let your hearts be uplifted in prayer for the success of this important gathering.

G. E. LANGDON, President; H. E. MOON, Secretary.
