General Meetings.

By Editor

WE early give notice of our general meetings because of their very great importance, and to give our people an opportunity to make full preparation to attend them.

HEALDSBURG, Thursday, April 16. To hold one week.

OAKLAND, Friday, April 24. Holding one week.

Annual meeting of the College, Friday, May 1.

The annual meeting of the Publishing Association will be held in connection with the general meeting in Oakland. It is urged and expected that the churches throughout the State will be well represented in this meeting, as the condition and interests of the office will be fully considered, and also arrangements for labor for the coming season will then be made. “The field is the world,” and all who love the truth have an interest in these matters.

The reason for holding the general meeting in Healdsburg before the annual College meeting is this: The College term closes April 24. Elder Haskell will be here, and he wishes (and in this wish we all join) to attend a meeting there before the scholars leave. This is an important point. The experience of Elder Haskell with our schools in the East makes it very desirable that he shall be present at and before the close of the school year.

Preparations for the business meetings of the College can be made while the brethren are together in the general meeting. The subject of our Health Retreat will also be considered at the same time. Do not fail to come!
