THE MEXICAN CAMP MEETING AT SAN
MARCOS TEXAS

The annual gathering of Mexican Presby-
terians in Texas, at San Marcos, is event of
no small significance. AS morazing missionary
enterprise its Importance cannot be exaggerated
1t is doing more in the way of intoxicating the
spirit of self support than any other factor in our
Mission.
This years meeting lasted from the 2Ist to the
goth of July. During that time fully one thousand
Mexicans attended the meetings. Four men came
one hundred miles from Hondo in light wagon;
and one of the elders of the San Antonio Church
came fifty miles on his bicycle
There were 81 camps and 22 tents on the
grounds. Each of our families provided for them
selves; and most of them entertained friends dur
ing the greater part of the meeting
Besides Our own preachers Trevino of Corpus
Christi, and Avila of Gonzales our licensed
preacher Rodriguez, myself and two Students we
had with us Rev. Abraham Fernandez from Mex
ico and by special invitation, Rev. B. c. Perez of
the Baptist church, and Rev. J. M. Vazquez of
the San Marcos Mexican Methodist church. These
two brethren made to feel very much at
home among and worked with us in the best
OF harmony. On the second Sunday afternoon
the Baptist preacher allowed to immense two
converts of his in the river.
his years camp meeting characterized
by earnesness and fervent spirituality. The spirit
of brotherly love ever shown at these meetings
was not lacking this year. and the missionary zeal
manifested at all times by Mexican Presby-
terlans was very much in evidence at this meeting
In proof of this, | will mention that $4,000 was
OF San Antonio to purchase lot and build
church Fifty dollars also contributed to
pay the travelling expenses of the visiting preach
ers The entire expenses of the meeting some
$4,000, were fully paid for.
1t is the purpose of the five churches Of tbe
Ban Marcos group to call of our Mexican
preachers as stated supply, or, if it be possible
to prevail on Presbytery to place him as an
evangelist i'll the counties of Hays Caldwell, and
Guadalupe. This will mean great step forward

The SINGING School.

While there may be parts Of the
country in which the singing school
still fiourishes, yet as national insti-
tuition 1t has gone the way Of roller
skates and blue glass.
The singing school had its inning
when rural communities formed an i'm
portant part Of the nation-in the days
before the farmers boy started for
town as soon as he learned to walk to
look for job In a bank.
In those days the young people Of the
neighborhood got together In the school
house and made melody or something
that passed as a substitute for 1t and
then afterward made love as they
logged home In the big farm wagon.
The singing school was a great in
stitution In its day, but modern inven-
lions have made 1t a back number.
Any man with few dollars and a lit
tie credit can buy a photograph and
be bis own singing school.
