Parkersburg Camp Styled Like Old Time Gatherings

ONE of the smaller camp meet- ings, the Mountain View Confer- ence encampment keeps much of the informal intimacy of the old-time gatherings. The session was held at the conference's campground in Parkersburg, West Virginia, under the direction of Richard D. Fearing, president, and his staff of workers. The camp meeting theme was "I want to be ready." Sermon series were presented by Donald Hunter, associate secretary of the General Conference, and Herbert Douglass, associate editor of the "Review." Elder and Mrs. Jack Darnall conducted a workshop on wilderness living and survival. Other guest speakers included: N. C. Wilson and W. J. Hackett, General Conference vice-presi- dents; W. R. L. Scragg, General Conference Communication De- partment secretary; W. B. Quig- ley, president, and A. R. Appel, C. R. Beeler, and P. F. Pedersen, departmental secretaries of the Columbia Union; and T. J. S. Fredarichs, an evangelist from Central India.
