CAMP-MEETING IN IOWA

Appointments.

“And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” Matt. 10:7.

CAMP-MEETING IN IOWA.

The annual Iowa camp-meeting for 1880 will be held in the city of Des Moines, the capital of the State, June 3–8. At this meeting the business connected with the Conference, tract society, Sabbath-school, and temperance organizations will be transacted. We expect this camp-meeting to be the largest ever held in the State. We have made special application to have Bro. and Sister White present, and we trust we shall not be disappointed. We hope other able speakers will be present also.
Des Moines is the most central point for the mass of our people. Railroads center there from all directions. It is the capital of the State, and many will wish to attend for that reason. We want our people to commence immediately to plan for a grand rally to this meeting. We shall not have camp-meetings, as last year, in several sections of the State. We think the time will suit the people generally better than any other which could be selected.
Let all plan to come, and seek the Lord at this meeting. As a Conference, we need a great awakening. GEO. I. BUTLER, Pres. Iowa Conference.
I will be at Elm Creek, Morris Co., Kan., May 15. Will Bro. J. H. Cook and G. H. Rogers meet me there at this time? JOSEPH LAMONT.
No Providence preventing, I will meet with the church at Mt. Morris, Mich., Sabbath and first-day, May 1, 2; Holly, Sabbath and first-day, May 8, 9. We earnestly request a full attendance of our people of these churches at these meetings. E. R. JONES.
Berlin, Wis., April 30 to May 5; Poysippi, Wis., May 7 to 10; Fremont, Wis., May 14 to 20; New London, Wis., May 21 to 25. Meetings will commence Sabbath eve. There will be opportunity for baptism at the above meetings. C. W. OLDS.
The third annual meeting of the Kansas Sabbath-school Association will be held in connection with the camp-meeting at Wakarusa, May 20–25, 1880. “Each Sabbath-school of fifteen members is entitled to one delegate, and one additional delegate for each additional fifteen members.” W. E. DAWSON, SMITH SHARP, OSCAR HILL, Exec. Com.
Ithaca, Mich., May 8, 9; Alma, Mich., May 11, at 7 P. M., as Bro. Chase arranges; Greenbush, Mich., May 15, 16, at 10 A. M.; Ovid, Mich., May 18–20, at 7:30 P. M. A. O. BURRELL.
Hoag S. H., Isabella Co., Mich., May 22, 23, at 10 A. M.; Chippewa, Isabella Co., Mich., May 25, at 7:30 P. M.; Gulic S. H., Isabella Co., Mich., May 27, at 7:30 P. M.; Seville, Isabella Co., Mich., May 31, at 7:30 P. M. A. O. BURRELL. L. A. KELLOGG.
The sixth annual session of the Kansas T. and M. Society will be held in connection with the camp-meeting at Wakarusa, Shawnee Co., May 20–25, 1880. SMITH SHARP, Pres.
The second annual session of the Kansas H. and T. Society will be held in connection with the camp-meeting at Wakarusa, Shawnee Co., May 20–25. SMITH SHARP, Pres.
The sixth annual session of the Kansas Conference of S. D. Adventists will be held in connection with the camp-meeting at Wakarusa, Shawnee Co., May 20–25, 1880. Let each church be fully represented by delegates. KANSAS CONFERENCE COMMITTEE.
Partello, Mich., May 15, 16. We desire the brethren from Olivet and Brookfield to attend this meeting. Those coming some distance should bring refreshments for themselves and teams, as we wish to hold meeting all day. M. B. MILLER. J. F. CARMAN.

SPECIAL APPOINTMENT.

By James White

DEDICATION.

By invitation of Eld. S. H. Lane, of Indiana, we appoint to be present at the dedication of the house of worship at Wolf Lake, Ind., May 16. The services will commence at 10:30 A. M. We will speak in the house of worship at Ligonier, the evening of the 14th. —JAMES WHITE.

WHAT EDITORS LIKE.

By Editor

AMONG other things, they like the spirit that is sometimes manifested by correspondents, of which we herewith present two specimens:—
One correspondent writes: “I have been feeling ‘quite a burden,’ of late, for your ‘waste basket,’ and thinking it might be the duty of almost every minister to contribute something for its sustenance, I inclose an article.” And he adds that if we see fit to make any other disposition of the article, and thus “rob the poor waste basket of its prize,” it will please him to have it trimmed and pruned, to any extent that may seem desirable.
Another writes: “You cannot do me a greater favor than to put any objectionable article of mine into the waste basket. I will then pick flint and try again.”
Between editors and such correspondents, peace and good-will are very likely to continue.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

J. MENDENHALL: See exposition of 2 Cor. 3, in the work on The Two Laws, pp. 42–49. See, also, concerning the relation Israel sustained to the law, both before and after leaving Egypt, the History of the Sabbath.
H. C. CADY: In Eld. Andrews’ History of the Sabbath, p. 229, you will find this testimony from Neander: “The festival of Sunday, like all other festivals, was always only a human ordinance, and it was far from the intentions of the apostles to establish a divine command in this respect; far from them, and from the early apostolic church, to transfer the laws of the Sabbath to Sunday. Perhaps at the end of the second century a false application of this kind had begun to take place; for men appear by that time to have considered laboring on Sunday a sin.”
This is from Neander’s Church History, translated by H. J. Rose, p. 186. In Torrey’s Neander, this sentence is omitted; but there is nothing to contradict this explicit statement found in Rose’s translation.

TO THOSE ATTENDING THE KANSAS CONFERENCE.

By Smith Sharp

THOSE coming by rail to the Kansas camp-meeting, from the south-west, will come all the way over the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe road. Those from the south-east will come to Emporia over the Missouri, Kansas, and Texas road, and from Emporia over the A., T., and S. F. road. Those from the north-west will come to Topeka over the Kansas Pacific, and from Topeka, over the A., T., and S. F. road. Those from Atchison or Kansas City will come all the way over the A., T., and S. F. The depot is but a few rods from the camp, and reduction will be given to those returning over the Santa Fe road. SMITH SHARP.

KANSAS CAMP-MEETING SABBATH-SCHOOL.

By W. E. Dawson

A SESSION of the Sabbath-school, of which all in attendance at the Wakarusa camp-meeting will be considered members, will be held Sabbath, May 22.
The first division will recite Lesson 47 of Lessons for Little Ones, No. 1. The second, third, and fourth divisions will recite the lessons for May 15. The lessons for this date are selected because of the uncertainty of receiving the papers in time to use the regular lessons.
General exercises will consist of review questions and recitation of the names of the books of the Bible in their order.
W. E. DAWSON, Pres. Kan. S. S. Asso.

FREEMAN AND TOBACCO.

By Wm. Covert

BY ELD. WM. COVERT.
Satan’s tactics ever have been to cause some of his agents to commit some terrible crime, and then throw the blame on some innocent party. Several hundred years ago he introduced from heathendom into the so-called civilized nations of earth the unnatural and foolish habit of tobacco-using, and a little more than a year ago the “habit” caused Charles Freeman to murder his innocent little daughter in the name of the Christian religion. It was then published that the Adventists were guilty of this great crime; but the following extract will place the blame where it belongs:—
“The court has fully decided that the man Freeman who killed his child at Pocasset, Mass., about a year ago, was and is insane.
“But it is further said that the insanity is not the result of religious ecstasy, but of the excessive use of tobacco, which had resulted in the derangement of his entire nervous system.”—Herald and Presbyter, Feb. 18. How very offensive is such a habit in the sight of God.
