# The Lutheran Pioneer_St. Louis_1922_S105 # Machine transcription, uncorrected — CHI Digital Archive (demonstration) 104 The Lutheran Pioneer. Great Leaders and Great Events. Edited by Pastor L. Buchheimer. Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. Illustrated. Bound in fine silk cloth. 347 pages. Price, $1.75. This book contains thirty historical essays from the field of church history by twenty-two different Lutheran writers. These essays cover a period of time extending from apostolic days to Paul Gerhardt, the preacher-poet. They were written for the common run of people, and for this reason are rather more popular than exhaustive and critical in content and style. But though not of a learned character, these essays will be found to be carefully writ- ten throughout, and will prove good reading to those that are interested in the history of God’s kingdom on earth.

The Negro Year-Book Co., Tuskegee Institute, Ala. 469 pages. Price, pa- per cover, 50 cts.; board, $1.00. This publication, an annual encyclopedia of the Negro, is a standard work of reference in its sphere. Mr. Monroe N. Work, the editor and compiler of this Year-Book, has certainly put in many an hour of hard work in getting out this reliable treasury of facts. We see a number of decided improvements in this latest issue of his annual. Old material has been revised and rewritten. The first 109 pages are devoted to a most comprehensive and com- plete review of events affecting the Negro, 1919—1921. To the student the bibliography on the Negro will prove very valuable. ~ We are pleased to acknowledge the receipt of the fol- lowing publications from Pastor W. M.

Order-from Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo, This new roll brings “O Little Town of Bethlehem” and “Little Children, Can You Tell?” It was issued by special request, and will please as much, we are sure, as hhave the choral medleys published previously by this firm. What a blessing it would be if rolls of this char- acter were played more! , FJ. L. A Correction. The biennial report of Treasurer Schuettner which ap- peared in the October number of the LUTHERAN PIONEER states that he reccived $1.00 from the Norwegian Synod. This is correct. However, it is also correct that Rev. A.J. son, Treasurer of the Norwegian Synod, during this Torger: period remitted $1,273.03 to Mr. E. Seuel, Treasurer of the Missouri Synod. The latter forwards all contributions for our Colored Missions to Mr. Schuettner without specifying the source whence they come. We are very glad to make this statement and give due credit to our friends in the Norwegian Synod of the American Lutheran Church. God bless them for their active missionary interest! CHRISTOPHER F.
