WHEAT RIDGE CHRISTMAS SEALS.

The annual report of the superin-
tendent of our Sanitarium at Wheat
Ridge, Colo., shows that 142 patients
were cared for during the past year.
Of these 117 were members of the
Synodical Conference, 10 were from
other Lutheran synods, 10 were mem-

fessed no creed at all. By far the
greater part of our Samaritan ser-
\ & vice is done among our own people.
we But Wheat Ridge also gives op-
WHEAT RIDGE. COLORADO porcantty for mission-work. Pastor
‘eiertag reports that four women
were instructed in the one thin
. needful; three were added to the Church by baptism an
one by confirmation. Wheat Ridge’s greatest service is
done by breaking the Bread of Life to the soul; this ser-
vice is of still greater importance than attending to the
wants and needs of the body.
At, this time the Christmas Seals, which make possible
the work of Wheat Ridge, are again being offered to our
+ Lutheran Christians. Through the aid of the Walther
League and of the American Lutheran Publicity Bureau
more than six million seals will be placed on the market.
‘The money derived from the sale of these seals opens the
doors of our sanitarium to those who can pay neither for
_ their treatment nor for lodging.’ Let us all do our part,

so that our brethren and sisters may seck a-cure for their :

malady in surroundings, which promote not only their
bodily, but especially their spiritual welfare. F
The seals may be ordered from the Walther League,
