The Adventists at Lake Herman -Educa-
tional Representative on the
Ground.

Ground.
1t would seem that the rains Of the
past few days would dampen the ardor
OF the Adventists at Lake Herman, but
it seems to have only the opposite effect.
But very few Of the tents leak and the
people are perfectly comfortable and
feel thankful for the fine showers Of the
past few days. New faces are seen on
the grounds each day. A stroll about
the camp shows everything kept in per-
feet order. No refuse is allowed to re-
main upon the ground. The early morn
ing meetings continue to deepen in in
terest each day.
Julius Boettcher, professor Of German
in Union college, Lincoln, Neb., is upon
the grounds as q representative Of the
colleges Of the denomination.
1t is supposed by ome that the Ad-
vsntists deny their faith in the soon
coming of CHRIST, by their educational
institutions. Their view Of the matter
is we'll stated by one Of their leading
men: III I knew" said he, shat Christ
would come in three years, I would ad-
wise a young man without education to
spend two OF the three years ia school in
o~btaininszs preparation, for he would do
more aud better work in the one re-
naming year than in three without this
preparation"
They have colleges established IN
Michigan, Nebraska, California, Wash
ington, Texas, Massachusetts, Australia,
South Africa, Ireland, and in Denmark.
In addition to this, smaller schools are
established in various places, besides
two ministers schools located in Battle
Creek, Mich, and Lincoln, Neb. In all
these schools the bible takes a prominent
place, the result Of which is that scores
Of those coming from these colleges be-
come in some way connected with the
work Of FORMULATING bible truth MS
ministers, missionaries, o. bible workers.

The congregation met under the pa

an address on the work and Importance

upon the many young people that we're

OF the work of the ministry az being con.
nected with the power of Christ. "This
