Order from Concor- dia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. Price, 30 cts. This book was written by a man that knows and ap- preciates the priceless value of our Small Catechism. In a masterful manner he brings out the rich contents of Luther’s gem. A careful reading of this brochure will lead to a deeper veneration and a more conscientious study of Luther’s “Little Bible.” Die Hausapotheke. Ein kurzes Wort zum Katechismus- jubilaeum. Von M.

Meyer, 812 Lafayette Ave., St. Louis, Mo. In a certain sense “Old Trinity” of St. Louis may be termed the “mother church” of our Synod. For this rea- son this beautiful souvenir, prepared for the ninetieth anniversary of Trinity’s existence, is of more than local value and interest. 12 in an envelope, 1,000 Statistical Year-Book of the Missouri Synod for 1928.

Published by the Walther League, 6438 Eggleston Ave., Chicago, Ill. The Walther League puts forth most laudable efforts in behalf of the Lutheran traveler. In this book is given a complete list of all the hospice workers, and the traveler is given helpful suggestions. A copy of this directory should be in the vestibule of every church, and the pastor should make frequent reference to it. The Walther Léague also publishes Removal Notice Card Booklets at 10 cts. r booklet. In this manner the Walther League wishes iS do its share in conserving our members for the Church when they leave home. Thousands of young people, in par- ticular, are lost to their Church when they remove from fee into a strange city. Let us do all we can to reduce loss. ‘Diminuti .

In ten-carat gold the cross sells for 50 cts. each or for $4.80 per dozen.
