Thursday, November the 30th will
be a great day at the Camp Ground,
at which time the Hopewell, Mt. Zion,
Woodson Ridge, Central and Oxford
communities will come together to
join in thankful praise to God, the
giver of all gifts for His manifold
and unstinted blessings during the

"BetheP' and spirited refreshment at
this hallowed place and fain would
return on this blessed day to add ac-

occasion.
A sermon in keeping with the day
will be delivered at II o'clock by Rev.
L. M. Lipscomb of Oxford, who is not
only at home on the old Camp Ground
but is among host of warm and adj
miring friends who will receive his

A basket dinner will be spread at
Noon by the ladies of the different
communities and the afternoon will
be spent in planting out trees in
vacant places on the grounds. Let
each man who can conveniently do
so, bring proper tools for doing this
work.
If the day proves too raw for an out
door service-the people will assemble
at Central Church near by which will
comfortably accommodate large
crowd. So everybody join in, max
ing this happy and profitable oc-

Bring the children and let them have
