“And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

Illinois Camp-meeting.

THE Illinois State camp-meeting will be held at Bloomington, McLean Co., Ill., Aug. 27 to Sept. 3, 1878, on a large inclosed lot, near the center of the city. Let there be a grand turnout at this annual convocation of the Seventh-day Adventists of Illinois.

Illinois Conference.

THE eighth annual meeting of the Illinois Conference will be held in connection with the camp-meeting, Aug. 27 to Sept. 3, 1878, for the election of officers and to transact such other business as may come before the meeting. Every church, and every body of believers not fully organized, should be represented at this meeting either by delegate, or by letter stating numbers, condition, and wants.

Conference Committee.

Illinois T. and M. Society.

THE next annual meeting of the Illinois T. and M. Society will be held on the camp-ground, Aug. 27 to Sept. 3, 1878. There are points of great interest to the society to be considered at this meeting; and it is expected that all members present will manifest due zeal in the transaction of this part of our work.

Committee.

Maine Camp-meeting.

THIS meeting will be held Sept. 4 to 9, 1878, in a pleasant grove, one mile from Waterville village, on the road leading to West Waterville. This grove is owned by Mrs. Gilman. This is the most central point in the State to accommodate all our people; therefore we expect all will make a special effort to attend. We expect half-fare will be granted us on the Maine C. R. R. and its branches the same as last year, as they have promised to do as well by us as they do by any other people.

More hereafter. J. B. Goodrich.

Maine Conference.

THE twelfth annual session of the Maine State Conference will be held at Waterville, on the camp-ground, Sept. 4 to 9, 1878. Let all our churches immediately take the proper steps to represent themselves by delegate, according to the following ratio: “Each church of twenty members or under is entitled to one delegate, and one delegate for every additional fifteen members;” and let our young churches that wish to unite with the Conference send a delegate or represent themselves by letter, making their wishes known. We wish to have the delegates reach the ground as early as Tuesday, Sept. 3.
