France, Canada. Hawaii Germany, and the United State participated in the World Council of Churches' work camp which was held on the grounds of the Fel lowship of Southern Churchmen in Buckeye Cove, near Swannanoa during July and the early part of August. The work camp was held partis in preparation for the Evanston meeting of the World Council "f Churches w hich has just concluded its sessions with the largest gath ering of Protestants in history and in part to assist the Fellow ship of Southern Churchmen furth er its building program. The American students came from colleges in Virginia, North Carolina. Tennessee. Alabama. Texas, Illinois, Ohio. Kentucky. Connecticut, and West Virginia Howard Kester of Black Mountain. John Riehel of the University of North Carolina, and Charlie Brown of the University of Chicago wen the directors of the work camp. The program was supported in large . measure by funds provided by the Congregational-Chnstian Service < ommittee of the Corgn gational Christian churches f America. The Fellowship Center consist ing of approximately 400 acres was founded in 1940 when the site was purchased from Tom B’-own through R. S. Eckles, Sr„ realtor At that time the executive com mittee of the Fellowship of South ern Churchmen, Dr. H. A. Kester. chairman, saw the need for pro viding a conference ground where small church related groups could meet to discuss problems of com mon concern. At the same time they made provisions for interest ed families to secure permanent home sites. As soon as the build ings are completed, the Fellow ship hopes to establish a training school for rural ministers called by them "the seminary in the corn ! ield”. Training will not only include -abject matter, but actual exper ience in farm work and crafts. rious people in the surrounui: ’.unities have contributed n i ia!s and increasing nquos'- A r - use by church groups arc being ! . .de to Dr. Kester.

Work camps, similiar to the o;*e in Buckeye Cove, were held in many parts of Europe, Asia, Central, South and North America and through them great numbers of young people had an opportunity to show their world wide interest and concern for other people The Fellowship of Southern Churchmen was selected to pro vide the work camp because of its long-standing efforts to secure sound Christian relationships be tween all denominational, inter eultural and interracial groups in the country. The purpose of the Fellowship Center in Buckeye Cove is to provide a meeting place for church and lay groups concerned to make their witness on the many fronts where Protestantism and democracy are now being challeng ed at home and abroad Members of the Fellowship from several states gave their time in June in preparing t h e buildings and grounds for the ecumenical camp ers. The campers completed two log houses with a floor space of about 2000 square feet and made improvements on various small buildings. The log houses will be used for group conferences and dining room and kitchen. If nec essary funds can be secured with which to provide additional living quarters, the Fellowship hopes to open the Center to conference groups next fall. The World Coun cil of Churches work camp offi cers hope to have another work camp at the center during the summer of 1955. for QUICK RELIEF of HEADACHE NEURALGIA Ease Pains of Headache Neuralgia - Neuritis with Quick Acting STAN BACK Test STANBACK against any preparation you've ever used » . .
