Camp Walton, March 29.-Saturday
night of the 22nd was one of those
perfect nights that is so common to
Florida, the moon a perfect ball Of

ed them. A launch load came from
Camp Pinchot and Carriers, Harris and
Mary Esther were well represented,
also Five-Mile and Of course, Camp
Walton people were there in force.
The night was too beautiful to stay
in the inn so the large gallery, the
pavilion and the lawn were occupied
all the evening.

clans did not arrive until late and then
without their instruments, but there
was good music for Mrs. Buck, Miss

Lynch presided at the piano, by turns
and were accompanied by Chas. and

SOUTHPORT.

Southport. March 29.-Easter Sun
day was a happy day for the Baptist
people Of Southport and their friends,
as it was the occasion Of the first
service in Their new house of worship.
A large attendance. sermon by our
pastor, good singing, a beautiful free
will offering, and the addition of four
teen new members, and the promise
of more to follow soon.
The building is one of the neatest
and prettiest of any village church in
all West Florida, and the rapidity with
which it has been secured makes us
the more appreciated. For years we
have been intending to build, but for
lack of confidence in our ability we
have deferred it from time to time.
Our present pastor, w. j. Sullivan,
came to us on the second Sunday in
January, and proposed that we begin
work at once, insisting that we would
only become weaker by waiting With
the backing of some of the members
and especially the ladies, a contract
was let for q building to be begun
at once. Not a day was lost by the
contractor, except one on account of
rain. AS a result we have a house
complete in every detail, nice steeple
and bell, painted on outside; nice,
tenn; everything except inside paint
ing. A friend has volunteered to donate
a nice heater, and a lady, not living in
Southport, has volunteered to carpet
the floor.
We are happy and appreciative. Some
outside aid has been received, but the
most of it has been done and given
by the generous people of Southport.
The Sole Davis Land Company has
given the lot and the Southport LJln-
Der Company made a material reduc
ton in price Of material. Credit is
due not only the pastor, the building
committee, and the Ladies Aid So
ciety, but also to the generous and
loyal hearted people of Southport.
Many (among whom are our largest
contributors are not members of any
church.
The building, including the reduc-
ton of material will cost about s J.,
and is easily worth 81, 900. ~
We have in hand or will have by the
first of April, sufficient funds to pay
all Indebtedness We have set apart
the 4th Sunday in April as the date
of dedication. DIR. Montague, president
of Columbia College, Lake City, will
preach the sermon Let all our friends
that can do so, come. Entertainment
will be provided.
