OHIO SABBATH-SCHOOL CONVENTION.

A SABBATH-SCHOOL convention will be held in connection with the camp-meeting. Matters pertaining to the Sabbath-school work will be thoroughly considered by the best workers among our people. We invite and earnestly desire the presence of Brn. G. H. Bell, W. C. White, and other Sabbath-school workers in Michigan and other States. Broader plans will be made for the advancement of this branch of the cause in Ohio. We want every superintendent, secretary, teacher, and, if possible, every Sabbath-school scholar in the State to be present. Sabbath-school workers cannot afford to lose the privileges of this convention.
To the superintendents and secretaries we especially appeal: You should come by all means, and bring your secretary's and teachers'-records. During the convention your books will be examined, and you will be called upon to read the report of the last school you held before the camp-meeting, so that all may see how each school is prospering, how they report, etc. Should it be impossible for any one of you to attend, you must not fail to send your books by some member of your school who will act as secretary for you. We hope not one will fail to come. Each superintendent will represent his school, and will be called upon to speak in behalf of the interest of his school. There will be speaking, compositions, synopses of thrilling subjects by Sabbath-school scholars, music, etc. A programme of the exercises will be sent to each school in the State as soon as possible. There will be two or three sessions of the convention, held at such times during the meeting as will be most convenient.
On Sabbath morning there will be a Sabbath-school in the large tent, the lessons for which will be announced in due time.
Our camp-meeting will be the best ever held in the State. Not one of our Sabbath-keepers can afford to miss it. D. W. REAVIS.
