Pennsylvania Camp-Meeting

THIS is the last time I can speak to you through the REVIEW before you will have decided whether or not you will attend this meeting. Eternal interests of far greater importance than all earthly things are involved in the decisions that some will make as to whether trifling things shall keep them and their children away from this God-appointed means of spiritual growth and power. The angels of God have been on the ground as an advance guard. God has greatly helped us, when outward appearances were much against us.
We have a nice location for the meeting, across the river from Wilkesbarre, in Kingston, on Pierce Street, easy of access to the street cars, and with pleasant surroundings. Elder S. S. Shrock's article in another column gives full directions for reaching the grounds. The reduced rates for round-trip tickets on the card order plan are made to Wilkesbarre, hence nearly all will come to some one of the depots in Wilkesbarre. One or two street-car fares will take them to the camp-ground in Kingston. We have arranged with H. Hackenberry's express delivery to carry from the depots in Wilkesbarre to the camp-ground all baggage which can not be carried by hand on the streetcars, and to return the same to depots at the close of the camp-meeting, for twenty-five cents for each piece. All checks for such baggage should be brought to the camp-ground, and our agent there will see to its delivery, and collect for the same. Considerable will be saved if all give strict attention to this instruction.

EXCELLENT HELP

Elders A. G. Daniells, S. N. Haskell, I. H. Evans, H. W. Cottrell, and M. Mattson are expected. Dr. Bradford and his wife, of the Philadelphia Sanitarium, will have charge of the dining tent, and otherwise labor for the good of the campers.

ESPECIAL EFFORTS

will be made to help the young people and the children by experienced persons who will have charge of their meetings. “Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not.” Let all come, and let invitations be extended to friends and neighbors. “The Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come.” Our invitation may be the last call to some poor, struggling soul. Let all pray for the success of the meeting in the salvation of many souls.
Send immediately for card orders for reduced railroad rates to V. H. Cook, Box 614, Williamsport, Pa., and state what road you wish to go on to the meeting.
