pcka August 2 to IL.

A meeting of the program commit
tee of the Kansas conference branch
convention of the Evangelical churcn
was held Tu asday afternoon IN the
PeIIetier's tea room, and tentative
plans were formed for the state con-
ventiOn of the conference, Which Will

portant changes in connection with
the next meeting. The camp meeting
idea is to be emphasized and general
meetings. in charge of special evan
gelists and singers, will be held each
night at the park. The meetings of
the various organizations represented
at the conference will also be changed
somewhat from last years plan, and
the separate organizations will have
meetings at Separate hours, so that
persons wishing to attend more than
one organization meeting will be able
to do so without missing any of the
meetings. The outside talent for the
convention was discussed at Tuesdays
meeting of the program committee
and was virtually decided upon. but
no announcement has yet been made.
Committee members present Tues
day were: Presiding elders. the Rev.
