Western Pennsylvania Camp Meeting

By F. H. Robbins

We earnestly desire that our people in Western Pennsylvania should put forth every effort to attend our next camp meeting, which will be held in the Homestead Park, near Homestead, June 11-21. Homestead is a suburb of Pittsburgh, and can be easily reached by the electric cars from Pittsburgh. Those coming on either the Pennsylvania or the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie trains can get off at Homestead. Within two squares of either station is the Homestead and Mifflin electric cars, which run direct to the camp ground.

Boarding

Meals will be served at the dining pavilion on the cafeteria plan; also cooked food, such as beans, potatoes, and soup, will be sold at cost to those who wish to take their meals in their tents. It will be necessary for those boarding in their tents to bring dishes, as they will not be furnished to those buying food in bulk. There will be a grocery stand for the convenience of the campers.

What to Bring

Those tenting should bring plenty of bedding, and all should have warm wraps, umbrellas, overshoes, "Christ in Song," hymn books, and Bibles. As the meeting will be early in the season, the evenings may be cold; so come prepared for whatever weather we may have.

Tents and Rooms

Tents will rent without floor at $2.50 and $3, and rooms will be furnished as reasonably as possible. Please order tents or rooms as early as convenient, so that you will not be disappointed when you come. We advise all who can live in tents to do so, as only a few rooms can be had near the camp ground.
Bring all baggage checks to the camp ground, leave them at the book stand, and your baggage will be looked after. I trust that we shall hear soon from those planning to attend, stating whether they will want rooms or tents. We expect to have a spiritual feast, and hope that all who can possibly do so will be with us at that time.
