Al gathering 1t has been enjoyed by the pa
many who have taken the time and the Is
trouble to tent on the ground, and have hi
given the camp their attention. During
the latter part of last week there were fo
breezy DAYS and the young people en- al
ioyed themselves in sailing across the ell

boat sailing, and during camp meeting
time the passage to the wood can be {
made with pleasure; tree from dust, and |
any other concomitant that may arise
by a land passage. However, there has q
been but little dust at this camp. 1t has
rained showers on half of the days, aud
cool weather and eastern breezes have
niitigated the heat and made pleasant
time. The last of anything is often the
best. and so it was with the camp at La
vinia S for 1909. Sunday was big day.
There was no other meeting near to an

came, and if there we're any on Lavinia's
ground who experienced the pangs that
have experienced in parting with
friends on Spring Branch Camp Ground,
in Kent county, they know what it is.
1t is all over now, and so it will be with
you in time my friends. The bright
light of the morning sun will dispel the
gloom of the dark est night.
