NORTHWEST NEBRASKA CAMP-MEETING.
By G. E. Langdon
THE camp-meeting for Northwestern Nebraska was held at Ainsworth, Brown County, beginning July 19 and continuing one week. The tents were erected on a pleasant site in the north part of the city near Bone Creek. The surroundings were pleasing and attractive. The meeting was a very successful one, considering the busy season of the year, and was a real blessing to all who attended. Some came two hundred miles to attend this meeting. The Spirit of God seemed to rest upon the entire camp, leading many from the road of indifference and sin to the Saviour; while others who had grown cold were brought closer to their divine Lord. The interest continued good from the very beginning. On the Sabbath the meeting was especially solemn. When an opportunity was given a large number came forward for prayers. Broken testimonies were given and the love of God came into all hearts. The services on Sunday were quite well attended from town and surrounding country. The subjects discoursed upon during the meetings were doctrinal intermingled with practical religion. The subject of health and temperance received considerable attention. On Monday afternoon a Tract and Missionary meeting was held, which proved to be a very profitable meeting indeed. The State secretary was present and gave some very pointed instructions on, "What is Missionary Work?" All were privileged to ask information on all points, and to give short personal experiences in work done. Monday afternoon eight persons showed their faith in the Saviour by baptism. The good meetings held here seemed to inspire all to attend the coming State Conference at Grand Island if possible.
