The Lutheran Pioneer.

ee

A Bargain.

A few copies of the late Pastor N. J. Bakke’s_ books,
Unsere Negermission in Wort und Bild and Our Colored
Mission, Illustrated, are still on hand. These books are
richly illustrated and bring a very readable history of our
Colored Mission from its very beginning. Since the Sy-
nodical Conference will celebrate its golden anniversary
in the near future, these books now have a peculiar in-
terest at the present time, describing, as they do, what
is the chief joint work of this great body of Lutherans.
When first published, the books sold for 50 cents each,
but if they were to be published to-day, they would cost
more. However, as long as the supply lasts, we are will-
ing to send either book postpaid to any address for only
25 cents. State whether you.want the English or German
edition, and order from Rev. Theo. F. Walther, 6406 Easton
Ave., St. Louis, Mo.

“Jesus Died for Both.”

A postal card in colors bearing this title has been
published by our Colored Mission Board. Jesus is bless-
ing a kneeling Negro child, while a white little child is
on His lap. The card is intended to awaken and nourish
the love for missions in the hearts of our people, and is
also appropriate for distribution in our day-schools and
Sunday-schools. Price, 2 for 5 cts.; 30 cts. per dozen;
$2.00 per 100. Order from Mr. Ewald Schuettner, 323
Merchants-Laclede Bldg., St. Louis, Mo.

Notice.

We again desire to call the attention of all the friends
of our Colored Missions to the three fine illustrated lec-
tures which so graphically picture our three most im-
portant fields. Congregations should not fail to take
advantage of the opportunity offered by these lectures
to become acquainted with our Mission. For particu-
lars write to Rev. Theo. F. Walther, 6406 Easton Ave.,
St. Louis, Mo.

Received the following unsigned letter from an un-
known friend: —

“Dear Rey. Lynn, —

“Accept my sacrifice that it may help to build large
ehurches into which Lilly Mae and little ‘Pet’ may enter
and continue to fold their little hands and pray to Him
who said: ‘Suffer the little children to come unto Me, and
forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.’

“Yours in the Lord,
”

The letter contained two dollars and bore a New Or-
leans post-mark. God bless both giver and gift!
