62 Proceedings of the twenty-third convention

from the Gospels, as well as one each from the Epistles and from the Old
Testament.

3. The preparation of these new series and their adoption shall take place
in the following way: We appoint a competent person
who, to the best of his judgment, draws up the four series of pericopes. The draft
shall be published in the summer of 1911 in the "Homiletisches Magazin" (St. Louis),
in the "Theologische Quartalschrift" (Milwaukee) and in the "Schulblatt" (St. Louis), and with it at the same time the invitation
that every pastor and every conference send any wishes or
proposals for alteration or improvement of the draft at the latest at the
beginning of March 1912 to the person who prepared the draft.
Then a committee, likewise appointed here, will review, in connection with the author of the series, all submissions received
that concern the new series of pericopes, will edit the draft according to
findings and will bring the result as a printed draft in the summer of
1912 before the convention of the Synodical Conference.
