T. AND M. INSTITUTE IN KANSAS.

By Smith Sharp

A T. and M. Institute will be held at Ozawkee, Jefferson Co., Kan., March 19 to April 5, 1880, under the supervision of Eld. B. L. Whitney, of New York. Eld. Geo. I. Butler also promises to attend at least a part of the time, and take charge of the religious interests of the meeting. We are exceedingly anxious to see a large number of T. and M. workers at this meeting. It is expected that each minister and licentiate in the Conference will be present, and devote his entire time to obtaining the instruction that will be available at this Institute. If there are societies from which the T. and M. officers cannot attend, let some other brother or sister be selected and sent, so that all parts of the State may be benefited.

Let each church take this matter in hand, and provide means so that some one can attend and receive the much-needed instruction. The advantages will be all that can be desired. Eld. Whitney is eminently qualified to give instruction in this part of the work, and the help of Eld. Butler will be appreciated.

Ozawkee is a little off the railroad, but it is the best place we can select. No charge will be made for board; but as the church there is not large, and but few of the members live in the village, it will be expected that as far as possible all will bring bedding, and come prepared to take care of themselves. We expect to meet here a number of the brothers and sisters from Missouri. I feel confident that a reduction of fare can be obtained over the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe R. R., if enough expect to come by rail to make it an object. Let each one that expects to come over that road notify me by card to Ottawa, Kan., immediately. This road passes within five miles of Ozawkee. Trains leave Atchison about 11 A. M.; Kansas City, about 10:30 A. M.; and Topeka, about 2 P. M. Further particulars will be given soon. Smith Sharp.
