TEXAS HEALTH AND TEMPERANCE ASSOCIATION.

By A. W. Jensen; Frank Green

At the camp-meeting held near Dallas, Texas, Nov. 5-11, the subject of health reform was introduced by Eld. Geo. I. Butler. After appropriate remarks and a discourse on temperance, the pledge papers were circulated through the congregation, and ninety-three signed the pledges, all but three of whom took the teetotal pledge. Seventy-three paid the initiation fee.
It was then voted that we organize a Health and Temperance Association, whereupon Eld. Butler was called to the chair, and Eld. R. M. Kilgore was chosen secretary pro tem. The Constitution and By-laws were read and adopted. The Chair, on being authorized to do so, appointed, as the Committee on Nominations, R. A. Miller, A. W. Jensen, and W. J. Simonton. The committee reported: For President, A. W. Jensen; Secretary, Frank Green.
On motion, the Association adjourned sine die.
A. W. JENSEN, Pres.
FRANK GREEN, Sec.
