# LCMS Convention Proceedings_St. Louis Missouri_1911_S193 # AI translation — CHI Digital Archive (demonstration) 13th Delegate Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States, 1911. 193 wood from the old Perry County Seminary, bearing likenesses of Luther and Walther, presented to the assembly; 2. to the congregations in St. Louis, whose hospitable families lodged an exceedingly large number of Synod members for ten days and longer — may God repay them most abundantly; 3. to the congregations of the three cities Milwaukee, Fort Wayne, and Chicago, who gladdened the Synod with invitations for the year 1914. The Next Delegate Synod. The 14th Delegate Synod, the 28th General Synod, will, God willing, be held in Chicago, Ill., at the usual time, beginning Wednesday before Cantate Sunday. Resolutions and Requests of the Synod for the Next Assembly. Resolved, that the committees be instructed to announce the time and place of their meetings, before and during the session days, in such a way that interested persons are given the opportunity to attend the sessions of the committee concerned. Recommended, that a large board be provided at the assembly hall on which announcements can be posted (similar to those in legislative halls). Recommended, that the Presidium create an information bureau ahead of the Synod, and that a typewriter be made available to it for the duration of the session. It is also advised that a post office be set up. (For at this convention of the Synod, too, much valuable time was lost through the reading aloud of postal addresses, announcements, and the like.)
