# The Lutheran Pioneer_St. Louis_1931_S193 # Machine transcription, uncorrected — CHI Digital Archive (demonstration) 192 THE LUTHERAN PIONEER Evangelisch-Lutherischer Hausfreund-Kalender fuer 1982. Editor: Martin Willkomm. Johannes Herr- mann, Zwickau, Saxony. 96 pages. Price, 20 cts. Order from Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. This is the annual of our brethren in Germany. It con- tains over fifty pages of excellent reading-matter. Among the articles we would call special attention to is a very heart-searching meditation on the question, “Whither are we going?” and a very interesting missionary article, “Woman in India.” A number of pages are crowded with valuable and interesting information concerning the Saxon Free Church. Joy to the World. A Christmas Program. Compiled by Herman Voigt, 1119 N. 15th Ave., Melrose Park, Ill. Price: Single copies, 7 cts.; dozen, 72 cts.; hun- dred, $5.00. May also be ordered through Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. — Program and Hymns for Congregation, to be used in connection with the Children’s Christmas Program Joy to the World, by Herman Voigt. Price: 100 copies, $1.00; 500 or more, 75 cts. a hundred. — German Supple- ment to Joy to the World, a Christmas Program by Herman Voigt. Price: Single copies, 2 cts.; dozen, 24 cts.; hundred, $1.50. A well-arranged program in the form of questions and answers, which many among us still. prefer to the recita- tion form. The program brings several new songs, one by the late Prof. J. L. Backhaus and another by the late ‘Prof. Fritz Reuter. It was a happy thought to bring the hymns to be sung by the congregation on a separate sheet. We are inclined to think that the German supplement will help to bring additional orders for the program. The Seminary Edition of Choruses and Quartets, Classical and Modern, for Male Voices. Edited by Walter Wismar. No. 11. Wachet auf! Wake, Awake! Price, 30 cts. No.12. Erschallet, ihr Lie- der! Sing Praises, Ye Faithful. Price, 20 cts. Con- cordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. Concordia Collection of Sacred Choruses and An- thems for More Ambitious Choral Organiza- tions. No. 19. The Passion of Jesus. Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. Price, 15 cts. . The first two compositions are by Bach, arranged by A. Beck; the last-named composition is a motet for mixed voices by Albert V. Maurer. The first two are for male voices and are quite difficult; the motet also will require a good choir to render it acceptably. F.J.L. Catalog of Concordia Publishing House, 1931-19382. Concordia Christmas Catalog. Concordia Pub- lishing House, St. Louis, Mo. The annual catalog of Concordia Publishing House is a volume of 1,150 pages. Few publishing concerns put out s0 complete a catalog as does Concordia; we are sure that no religious publisher issues its equal. The book is a mar- vel of completeness and comprehensiveness. — The Christ- mas Catalog records a great variety of holiday goods on its forty-eight pages, material selected particularly for the Christian home. You may have it for the asking. Contributions Received by the Treasurer. October 1—31, 1931.
