40 The Lutheran Pioneer.

Warum haben wir Gemeindescliulen? Beantwortet
aus dem Munde derer, die keine haben. By Th. Gracb-
ner. Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo.
Price, 5 cts.; per dozen, 40 ets.; per 100, $2.75; per
1,000, $25.00.

This isa German edition of the admirable English tract
recently published: “Endorsements of the Principles Un-
derlying the Religious Week-day School by American Edu-
eators, Editors, and Statesmen.” ‘This edition deserves
widest circulation among those who prefer to do their
reading in German.

“Y” Religion and Boy Scout Morality. An Investi-
gation by Th. Gracbner. Concordia Publishing House,
St. Louis, Mo. Price, 5 cts.; per dozen, 40 cts.; per
100, $3.00.

He that reads this pamphlet with care will be con-
vinced that the religion of the Y. M. C. A. is subversive of
Christian faith, and that the morality of the Boy Scout
organization has a Pharisaic character. It also gives the
conviction that the latter organization has a tendency
towards preparing the boys for a later membership in the
lodge. May this timely pamphlet serve its purpose and
effectually warn our people against these two popular or-
ganizations.

Meine Schuljahre. By Dr. H. A. W. Krauss. Concordia
Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. Cloth; 112 pages.
Price, $1.00, postpaid.

A sketch covering the genial author’s school and col-
lege days. It is a truly delightful book in every way, and
instructive in an unexpected measure. Incidentally the
veteran educator enters upon brief discussions of educa-
tional principles and problems, and ‘these short elucida-
tions make the book a valuable accession to every pastor’s
or teacher’s professional library. We are not personally
acquainted with the venerable Doctor, but after reading
this most readable book, we are longing for an opportunity
to make his personal acquaintance. We assure our pas-
tors and teachers: that they will miss something if they
do not read this book. é

Twenty-two Short Preludes. By Mr. Reuter. Order
from Prof. Fr. Reuter, 126 Washington St., New
Ulm, Minn., or from Concordia Publishing House,
St. Louis, Mo. Price, $1.20 net.

It gives us pleasure to call the attention of our readers
to this fine collection of organ preludes. These composi-

tions in every case clearly suggest the hymns they intro-_

duce, They fully preserve their character of sacred music,
and will do their share towards contributing to the dig-
nity and impressiveness of the service in which they are
used. We hope that the reception given this publication
will encourage the composer to enrich our English musical
church literature with still more contributions.

Four Songs for Mixed Choir. By Wm. Heine and Wm:
; Uffelmann, _ Published by Wm. Heine and Wm. Uffel-
mann, North Judson, Ind. Price, $2.00 per dozen;

and choir-leaders. Order from Concordia Publishing

: House, St. Louis, Mo. ‘ ;
This publication contains two musical compositions,
and-each tune is provided with two texts. ‘The first has:
‘an English ttxt suitable for the dedication of a church
~ or some other occasion, and a German Easter-text. The.
' other tune is furnished with an English text appropriate
for Confirmation, and a German text that may be used
on ‘New Year’s Day or at Confirmation. The music is
_ simple and attractive, and we gladly commend these com-
_ potions to those having charge of mixed choirs not able
_ to render compositions ‘of considerable difficulty. ~
