 This meeting is held on the dtlightful grounds os the Plainville Camp Meet ing association, located two miles from Plainville and one mile from Forest vile, Conn. It is the eliminating event of four weeks series of meetings, be- ing preceded by the Connecticut Chau- tauqua assembly and Grand Army day. Its programme Is adapted to the needs of the Christianity of to-day. Interest in its work has enlisted a new genera tion of Christians and has extended to half dozen denominations. A well come is extended to all who are desir- ous of deeper Christian life and a better equipment for personal work in the service of Christ. The meetings will each be helpful, but those who can stay through the entire series will be especially benefited
 The grounds are ir excellent order, the appointments are neat and attrac- tive, the water is pure and the accom- modations are comfortable.
 The ministers retreat, for ministers only, will be held every morning, Sun days excepted, at half-past eight o'clock. Among the leaders will be Messrs. Scofield, Henderson. Hannah, Adams, Richard, Goodenough and Me- Cormiek.
 Instead of the ten o'clock sermon, as heretofore, a series of expository ad- dresses on The Deepening of the spir- l itual Life based on the epistle to the Romans, will be given by Rev. T. S. Henderson, of New York city, and Rev. F. Watson Hannah, of Brooklyn, N. Y, each speaking somewhat briefly on dif- ferent phases of the same topic. Those who heard MT. Henderson last year will need no invitation to attend: while the most competent of critics has pro- nounced MT. Hannah to be one of the most remarkable expository preachers of the day.
 THE PERSONAL WORKERS
 TRAINING GLASS. This class will be conducted by Rev. T. S. Henderson, corresponding secre- tary of the evangelistic commission, and will meet daily at 1:s0 p. m. for an hour, A similar opportunity never has been offered at Plainville before. Miss Susie M. Blackman, deaconess, | of Brooklyn, N. M, will have charge of the children's hour. Miss Blacklnarl has had fine success in this field of work, and her meetings will attract not only children. but Junior League work CTS, who would study methods, as well. The young peoples meeting will ge in charge of Rev. Arthur !. Smith, of New Haven. He will have the help also of able assistants, and this meeting, so long a power, will continue to be cen ter of devotional and evangelistic inspi- lration.

The preaching services will be contin- ued, according to the programme, af- ternoon and evenings, except that Sa- turday afternoons will be left open for rest and recreation.
