The Lutheran Pioneer. q

which reads: “Come unto Mary, all ye who are
weary and heavy laden and bowed under the weight
of your sins, and she will give you rest!”

A New Lurueran Missionary at Buenos
Arres. — Rey. IE. Ceder, a graduate of the Augus-
tana Seminary at Rock Island, Ill., has gone as
a missionary to Buenos Aires to do pioneer work
among the Scandinavian population in that large
city. There is a large Scandinavian population in
Buenos Aires, and it is hoped that Rev. Ceder will
succeed in gathering them into congregations. In
the course of time the missionary also intends to
take up work in the Spanish tongue. F.J. 1.

NODICAL CONFERENCE. 120 pages. Concordia

sive report of the committee appointed by a previous
convention of the Synodical Conference to confer with

differences which have arisen between the two bodies.

CONCORDIA PICTURE ROLLS. Concordia Publishing
House, St. Louis, Mo. Price, $1.00 per quarter;
$4.00 per year. With tripod stand, $5.00.

A quarterly publication that should find entrance into
every one of our day-schools and Sunday-schools. While
intended first of all for the primary classes of Sunday-
schools, these rolls, with their large and handsomely col-
ored pictures, deserve to hang on the walls of every Lu-
theran day-school. ‘The pictures, which measure 2326
inches, are so fnstened by their top edges to a strip of
wood that they may be conveniently hung on the wall.
The stand from which to suspend the rolls is very ser-
vicenble, and will serve to keep the rolls in good con-
dition. We earnestly hope that the publishers may re-
ecive the proper practical encouragement in this under-
taking by a general introduction of the rolls among us.

FUER DIE KLEINEN. A German monthly of four pages

These juvenile periodical publications of the Concordia
Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo., enjoy a very large cir-
culation, but they deserve to be even more generally read
than they are. The reading-matter is of a very high grade
from every view-point, which is proved by the fact that
selections from these publications often appear in other
papers. We have reason to be proud of these publications,
and should do all in our power to increase their circula-
tion. In conclusion, we wish to state that the Young Lu-
therans’ Magazine and the Kinder- und Jugendblatt are
also fine reading for the grown-ups. Try them and find
out for yourself!

SALNGERBOTE. A German-English Lyrical Quarterly.
No. 16. Success Printing Company, St. Louis, Mo.
Price, 15 cts.

Brings a rich selection of original and translated verse.
Poetry on the Reformation is well represented, as it should
be in view of the coming Quadricentennial, The editor
writes that the next four numbers, which will also be the
last, will be Jubilee numbers, and he makes an earnest
plea for an increase in the number of subscribers, and
the addition of an extra mite over and above the price
of subscription (50 cts.), so that the publishers may be
enabled to make the Saengerbote a true JUBILEE SINGER
in 1917. May his request find a ready and general re-
sponse! F. J. L.
