A LOOK IN At THE BIG
CAMP MEETING IN ACTION

While in Jamestown last Thursday
forenoon The Times man took a run
out to the great tented city where the
Methodists have their camp meetings.
The grounds are beautifully located in
a horseshoe bend of the Jim river, to
the north of the city, and are connected
with uptown by cement sidewalk
that runs right to the grounds. There
is any amount of timber for shade. and
the water here is free from rubbish
and an excellent place for boating and
fishing.
]. w. Payton was the first to greet
the stray editor on the grounds and
was kind enougk.to volunteer as pilot.
The place is laid out with streets and
walks, and plans are all made for its
future development. The grounds
comprise 81 acres, and the property be-
longing there, according to the figures
of w. H. Tullis. superintendent of the
grounds, is valued at sl4,0O0 At that
time there were attending the meet
ings about 1000 people, who were
mostly living in 23O tents. The super
lntendent estimated that the rental
from tents on the grounds would
amount to 81, 600 for the two weeks.
No one could pass about these grounds
and notice the enthusiasm and earnest
ness of the people with whom you
talked and heard, without being i'm
pressed with the great spiritual uplift.
AS you moved about in early morning
some were having morning devotion,
some were praying in their tents so
they could be hear;: for blocks, and
everywhere was readiness for the first
meeting that was to convene in the big
tent at nine O'Clock. Supt. Darford
was leading the meeting and Rev.
F. w. Gress, of Beach, at one time of
Glendale, was in charge of the singing.
1t was inspiring to look in for a few
moments and catch the enthusiasm of
that meeting.
Such great preachers as Rev. H. c.
Morrison, DR.. Carradine, Bishop Luc-
cock and Rev. Harvey Calkins were
preaching daily. and were meeting with
glorious response to their appeals
The meetings were to end Monday Of
this week. ...-.
There were about nineteen Oakes
people and vicinity on the grounds and
we met most of them during our short
stay. They were all happy and de-
scribed the work there as ''simply
glorious.

der in North Dakota Is be in flourish
ing condition. There are over 5000
members in good standing, and the
general fund showed surplus in the
treasury Of over $23, 1000. An important
action of the grand lodge was the step
taken to build, in connection with the
state tuberculosis sanitarium at Dun
seth, an institution for the care of
those afflicted with the white plague.
The carrying on of the work was left
with the new grand master, Walter N.
Williamson of Lisbon, and the grand
