Nebraska Camp-Meeting.

By A. J. Cudney

It is now decided to hold our spring camp-meeting at Norfolk, Madison Co. Our object in selecting this place is that it is a railroad center. It is especially easy of access to our people in the northern, northeastern, and northwestern parts of this State. Never before have our brethren been favored with a camp-meeting in this part of the State, but have been compelled to go long distances to attend these gatherings. We expect that many will come with their teams, as this will be the cheaper way when there are several coming together; but for the benefit of those wishing to come by rail, we have secured very low rates over all the roads leading to this place. We would be glad to welcome all the Nebraska readers of the SIGNS at this meeting. There are many, no doubt, who have been reading our papers that would like to become better acquainted with the doctrines of Seventh-day Adventists and also to become acquainted with the people.

This will be a very favorable opportunity, as a brief synopsis of the Adventist faith will be given, and an effort made to have all feel at home and their stay both pleasant and profitable.

There will be family tents to rent at very low rates; and to those not able to pay they will be furnished free. All should bring a good supply of bedding and provisions from home. There will be a well furnished book-stand on the ground where will be found a large stock of all the books published by our people; also Bibles in all styles of binding, and different languages.

We trust none of our people in the northern part of the State, and those within a reasonable distance on the south, will think of staying away, or leaving their children at home.

Come, brethren, bring your children, seek God yourselves, and pray for their conversion and for the general interest of the meeting.

Come at the commencement of the meeting and stay till the close. A. J. CUDNEY.
