Work Planned for Wisconsin
By William Covert
THE Wisconsin Conference Committee met in Milwaukee, April 19, and planned for work as follows:— A tent-meeting is to be held at Rice Lake, under the supervision of Elder J. B. Locken, to begin as early as the season will allow. A tent-meeting is to be held at Oshkosh, under the supervision of Elder J. S. Shrock and some German Bible workers. This meeting is to begin as soon as the weather is warm enough for services of this character. Elder N. P. Neilsen will assist in the services that are to be held in the English language in connection with this series of meetings. It is further planned that a tent-meeting be held in Ashland. Brother C. D. AcMoody is to labor in this series of meetings, and probably Elder W. S. Shreve will be there at least a part of the time. Plans are laid for a tent-meeting to be held at Ladysmith, after the course of lectures has been completed in Rice Lake. Arrangements were made for a tent-meeting to be conducted in the south part of the city of LaCrosse, to begin after the close of the Wausau camp-meeting. Elders F. F. Petersen and H. R. Johnson will probably have charge of the LaCrosse meeting. The population of this city and vicinity is composed of several nationalities, but the speaking will be in the English and Scandinavian languages. Elder C. W. Olds has just moved to the city of Waukesha, and arrangements are made for him to devote most of his time this season to the circulation of literature, and house-to-house work with the people of that city. The conference is to furnish such reading-matter as he wishes to use in his work. Arrangements were made to send him as many as two thousand copies of the “Open Letter,” and as many copies of the Family Bible Teacher as he can handle. It was also recommended that he secure a club of The Signs of the Times and the Watchman. We will report other features of our work in this conference as the season advances.
