Let Us Not Forget The time for our annual camp-meeting and conference is fast approaching. No doubt our people all through the eastern part of our state are making the neces- sary preparations, so when the time ar- rives they will be ready to start for the beautiful Rocky Mountain Lake Park, where the tents will be in readiness and we can soon he settled and enjoy the meetings. While the preparation is go- ing on we must not forget the prepara- tion of the heart to receive the truths for this time. Pray as you work; ask God to fill us all with His spirit that when we come together we may all speak the same thing and that there be no division among us. God has taken away the things that were against us—such as going to Jeru- salem three times a year,—and simply invites us to go to camp-meeting once a year, and shall we not comply with this request? Certainly we must in order to keep in touch with the movements of God's cause today. My brother, bring with you the younger members of your family and also your neighbors. No doubt they will catch the droppings of the Spirit and be converted or strengthened for the duties of the year, and our homes will be more happy. � J. S. ROUSE. Our Camp-meeting Shall the camp-meeting for this Con- ference traly he "Our Camp-mee,ing?" If so, we all should plan to be there to help make it a success, and just what God would have it to be. Another year has passed, and 0 how rapidly it has gone by! We have great reason to praise God, for while in the midst of death, peril, and calamities by land and sea, our good heavenly Father has seen fit to still spare our lives. Is it not for this purpose that we should be to the praise of His glory? Then our very ex- istence in this world should bring glory to God. Now then, should we not all come up to OUR camp-meeting that we may glorify God at this time, in this way. I have just been reading in Testimonies Vol. IX, pp. 81-88, the chapter entitled, "Camp-meetings and our publications." Let all read this chapter from the Ser- vant of the Lord. "Properly conducted, the camp-meeting is a school where pastors, elders, and deacons can learn to do more perfect work for the Master. It should be a school where the members of the churches, old and young, are given opportunity to learn the way of the Lord more perfectly, a place where believers can receive an education that will help them th help others." Let us all come up to OUR camp-meet- ing this year praying that God will make this meeting a blessing to each one of us, that we may ke a blessing at the camp•meeting, and a blessing to our churches when we shall return to our homes, and then we will be a blessing to the world. � G. W. ANGLEBARGER. Colorado Springs The fortnight beginning July 5th has been a very profitable season for the Colorado Springs church. Meetings were held every night, and apparently with an increasing interest,—certainly with an increasing attendance. Brother Meade MacGuire was in charge of the effort, and Professor E. G. Salishuty and Mrs. Mae Warfle were present a part of the time to assist. We believe the work has resulted in great good, and that an onward move- ment has been started that will mean the salvation of many souls. M. A. ALTMAN. Railroad Rates to Camp-meeting The railroads have granted us a re- duced rate of one and one-third fare on the certificate plan from points in Colo- rado to Denver for the coming camp- meeting. Certificates purchased with tickets on August 14, 15, 16, tq, and 21 will secure this rate to the purchaser. Notice these dates carefully. Only cer- tificates procured on these dates will be good. The roads which will authorize this rate are as follows: Santa Fe, Burling- ton, Rock Island, Colorado & Southern, Colorado Midland & Midland Terminal, Rio Grande, Florence & Cripple Creek, Missouri Pacific, and Union Pacific. "On one of the authorized dates of sale purchase a one-way ticket to point at which convention takes place, procur- ing from the ticket agent a certificate. In case agent at starting point is unable to sell through ticket, purchase to junc- tion point and from there repurchase to point of meeting, procuringa certificate from each agent from whom ticket is purchased." "No claim for refund of fare ac- count of misunderstanding or failure to follow instructions will be enter- tained by the railroad companies." As soon as you reach the camp ground leave your certificate at the hook tent. R. T. EMERY.

ECHOES FROM THE FIELD. Sanitation Hints Another-annual gathering of our peo- ple of Colorado is at hand. We hope every one will co-operate in making this time profitable along all lines. Let us be careful of our physical con- dition as well as spiritual, so that there may not be one sick one among us. Much depends upon ourselves in accomplish- ing this condition. Proper clothing and bedding are among the essentials. Keep the tents as free from flies as possible so that food will not be con- taminated. This is one of the greatest sources of carrying infection of typhoid fever, etc. Be regular at meals, take time to eat. It is as essential how we eat as what we eat. Mothers, see that babies are not given food promiscuously by strangers. See that the garbage cans are well covered; insist on their being kept in a sanitary condition. Leave dogs at home, as they will be prohibited from entering the grounds. If we follow out a few of these rules, we will not only be made happy our- selves but assist others in accomplishing a good work for 1912. H. A. GREEN, M. D. Camp-meeting Music This is a personal notice to ministers, workers and, singers. Please send me at once the names and addresses of singers in the various churches who expect to attend camp- meeting. We want all those who took part before in the Chorus, together with others who can sing and would like to help make this feature of the meetings a real success. Further notice will appear in the next issue. INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC We desire this year to augment our Chorus with instrumental music. I would be pleased to hear at once from those who have had experience along instrumental lines of any kind. Let me know what instrument you play so we can have this feature fully provided for. Do it now. � HENRY DE FLUITER. 1112 Kalamath St., Denver.

In 1898, she came to Colorado, and was married to Arnold A. Hagen, January 9, 1971. The direct cause of her death was pneumonia, following an operation. Sister Hagen, with her hus- band, accepted of the truths borne by the Seventh-day Adventist church about one year ago. It was my privilege to teach her in public, and also in Bible Readings at the home of Brother and Sister Campbell in Denver. I have never seen any one more ready and will- ing to accept of all the truth, and obey it, than she. She rejoiced in the pre- cious Third Angel's Message to the end, and died in the faith. We are assured that she sleeps in Jesus. She is survived by a husband, two brothers, and one sister. Funeral services were conducted by the writer in the Denver First Seventh-day Adventist church., assisted by Elder G. M. Alway. Many friends were present. G. W. ANGLEBARGER. Fox--Eugene E. Fox died at his home in Greeley, June 11, 1912, at ti:oo p. m., of epilepsy. Brother Fox was not a member of the Adventist church al- though he had been_keeping the Sabbath for forty yeart. He realized his end was near, and was perfectly resigned to go. He leaves a wife and son, both members of the Adventist church, to mourn his loss. He was horn August 2, 1850, at Knights Creek, Mass., and had been a resident of Greeley for ten years. He had a large circle of friends by wham he was held in high esteem. The funeral services were held by the writer, assisted by the Captain of the Salvation Army. G. M. A LWAY. WHY YOU SHOULD USE OUR SANITARIUM HEALTH FOODS g I. We know they are healthful, no lard, soda, baking powder or chemicals being used, which are used in most prepared foods which you now pur- chase in the open market. g 2. As now made they are as tender and tasty and even more so than most than most foods made with these harmful ingredients. 3. And with our 15 % Adventist dis- count plan on $5 orders, they are more economical than any other prepared foods of same quality on the market. ti Send for price list and prove our statements.

NOTES AND ITEMS Pasture will be provided for horses. When you reach the camp-ground see Brother C. M. French who will have charge of the pasture. We hope each church clerk will be prompt in returning the delegate's cre- dentials to us. We wish to have a com- plete roll of delegates ready for the first service of the meetings. Dr. J. D. Shively and wife, Dr. Eva Shively, are now located in College View, Nebraska, in charge of the medi- cal work at the Nebraska Sanitarium. We believe the Sanitarium is very fortu- nate in securing the services of Dr. Shively and wife. Wo recently received from a brother in Oregon $5.00 in payment of a pledge made by him for the tent fund in Colo- rado some twenty years ago. This amount was duly credited to our fund. We are glad to note the honesty of this brother in paying pledges. It is cer- tainly true that vows made to the Lord never become outiawtd.. Arrangements will be made for haul- ing trunks to and from the grounds to the depot. Either give your check to Brother Sutton when you reach Denver or else bring it to the grounds and leave it at the book tent. Do not give it to any express- man save the one who may be hauling our baggage unless you wish to pay much more for the service than is necessary. Miss Aletha Campbell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Campbell of Garden City, Kansas, was united in marriage to Mr. Hollis Weishaar of Sylvi, Kansas, on June 6. The ceremony was per- formed by Elder N. T. Sutton, president of the West Kansas Conference. Miss Campbell forritely lived at Rocky Ford and Longmont in this Conference. Mr. and Mrs. Weishaar are now at home on their farm near Sylvia. We trust the appeal for a tent for the women which was given in our last ECHOES will meet with a ready response, especially from the siste.s in the Confer- ence. Sister Zener and the Boulder sisters are having most excellent meet- ings on Sabbath afternoons, the influence of which has been very beneficial to the Boulder church. We will be glad to see this influence widened so as to help the sisters throughout the Conference.
