# The Lutheran Pioneer_St. Louis_1923_S24 # Machine transcription, uncorrected — CHI Digital Archive (demonstration) 24 The Tutheran Pioneer. ee BOOK TABLE. Curriculum for Lutheran Kindergartens. By I’. A. Man- gelsdorf. Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. 99 pages, 69. Profusely illustrated. Price: Paper cover, 80 cts.; boards, with cloth back, $1.00. This book admirably shows how the kindergarten may be made to form a useful part of a Lutheran Christian day- school. Aside from taking up those things which one might expect in any treatise on the kindergarten, the author de- votes no less than twenty-six pages to the subject of relig- ious teaching in the kindergarten. And this part of the book is so well written that we cannot too strongly urge every teacher of primary grades in our parish-schools to procure a copy of this treatise just to read and study this chapter. Also primary-grade Sunday-school teachers will find it worth while to get the book. Of course, it goes with- out saying that this book is not only unique because of this special chapter on religious teaching, but likewise because of the positively Christian treatment of the whole subject in all its phases. Synodical Reports of Missouri Synod for 1922. Concor- dia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. No.15. Southern Illinois District. German paper: “Die Lehre von der Kirche.” 80 pages. Price, 35 cts. American Principles and Private Schools. By J. C. Baur. American Luther League, Barr and Madison Sts., Fort Wayne, Ind. A tract for the times, indeed; for just now there are powers busy night and day which aim to destroy all pri- vate and church schools. Rev. Baur, in this tract, brings undeniable proof that state monopoly in education strikes at parental rights, religious liberty, and freedom in educa- tion. This booklet is offered for free distribution to serve the cause of Christian clementary education. Send for a copy or more. Harmony of the Four Gospels. Compiled by Rev. J. A. Lauritzen. Second edition. American Lutheran Bible Society, 120 W. Cumberland Ave., Knoxville, Tenn. 20 pages, paper cover. Price, 30 cts. This attempt to harmonize the four gospels as to time and place will prove a useful help to the diligent and faith- ful Bible-reader.. No doubt, the compiler of this booklet devoted much time and care to his work. However, we make bold to suggest to the compiler that he have some- body better acquainted with the language of our country to look over the booklet before he ‘publishes the next edition. “Show-Your-Colors” Gallery.
