CAMP LIFE.

From Convention, your Editor went to Camp of Bible Class Girls, about 56 of us with camp stretchers in the large Hall at Palmerston North Show Grounds. Earnest, eager students, most of them anxious to fit themselves for future service. Easter Sunday a fine service at Cuba Street, followed by a beautiful Communion Service. Then service at night in Camp. And last of all, when lights were out, and Camp Mother had commanded silence, stole sweetly through the moonlit Hall the tender lullaby sang by our Maori Sister from Turakina. And to its lovely melody, we drifted into the land of dreams. What a force in the life of our land is this opening womanhood. How it rejoiced us to know so many were gathered in Bible Classes, Y.W.C.A’s. and W.C.T UY What a trust the Master has put into your hands—you are to bear and rear the citizens of the future. You are to pass on the lamp of life to coming generations, i kn'”’ r , dear girls, you will pass on the stream of life untainted by those racial poisons—alcohol and nicotine. You will permit no man who has sown wild oats, to be the father of your children,

because the wild oats sown by fathers are reaped by their children. Thank God, dear girls, for the gift of life. Be worthy of the trust reposed iu you. So work, so live that “children may arise and call you blessed."
