Rates to the Kansas Camp-Meeting
By C. McREYNOLDS
A RATE of one fare for the round trip, plus fifty cents, on all roads in Kansas, from all points within the State, and from Kansas City and St. Joseph, Mo., to Newton, Kan., is granted on account of the camp-meeting to be held at Newton, August 27 to September 7. Tickets on sale from August 26 to 30, inclusive, good to return until and including September 8. Please do not mistake the following: you can buy a ticket any time between midnight of August 25 and midnight of August 30, at the rate stated above. Again, notice this especially: if the distance is less than fifty miles, call for your ticket at one and one-third fare; if it is fifty miles or more, it will be one fare, plus fifty cents. As soon as you get this notice, go to the station from which you expect to start, and show the agent the notice, and ask him to arrange for your tickets. If you will do this, you will have no trouble. Do not pay full fare one way and take receipt, with the hope of getting a part of the money refunded; this makes trouble and delay, and the money is seldom received. The preceding is my understanding of the following letter, just received from the general passenger agent, W. J. Black:— “DEAR SIR: We take pleasure in advising that we have arranged for rate of one fare, plus fifty cents, except where open rate of fare and one third is less, from all points in Kansas, and from Kansas City and St. Joseph, Mo., to Newton and return, for the annual camp-meeting of the Seventh-day Adventists to be held at Newton, Kan., August 27 to September 7. Excursion tickets to be sold August 26-30, inclusive, limited for return until Sept. 8, 1903. “W. J. BLACK, G. P. & T. A.”
