Bowman Upon the invitation from Proft and Mrs. Woods Jr., we visited last Sunday after preaching St. Barnabas NYA camp near Jenkins ville in Fairfield county and its almost a miracle to see what Prof Woods and his wife are doing for those fifty boys under their administration. They came as instructors to this "mortar to make bricks", not a camp three years ago without they have seven buildinvs erect5 ed by his -boys under Mr. Woods supervision. Three years ago. the camp had only 3 acres of land, but recently because of Mr. Wood# accomplisTiments, his hoard recent 'v bought, the old Ilughoy's track "hich is located n~a>bv and eon "vtT OHb hundreds acres of ' land, which will compare favora" :th any camp in the 1 he agriculture work is being supervised by^ Prof. H. F. Boyd, a | recent graduate of State college. We. understand they have "already^" gathered 125 bushels of sweet potatoes, 75 bushels of butter beans 35 bushel - ... ...,ivc potatoes and raises a plenty of other edible things. Scores of fat hogs to kill foj* the winter, yard full of chickens and mules fat as butter. We also met Mr. P. A. Beatty, who is principal of the high school here. Mr. Beaty tells us they have recently added the 11th grade to the system and two of his graduates last year made fresh man class at Benedict college. The power behind this school is ' the Rev. M. S. Whittington, Archdeacon, who is the manager and secretary of the school. We regrot we failed to meet the Tfe^T Whittington but- he is a man of \ God, having bought a bus for the children to ride to and from the school. We hope other camps will follow the example of Mr. and Mis. Woods. .a ST. PAUL A M. E. CHURCH Rev, S. J.
