THE LUTHERAN PIONEER.

by 187 students. Through the assistance of the
Society thirty-eight Sunday-school teachers were
secured. Preaching dates were also filled by a num-
ber of the members. The Society contributed $105
to the Negro Mission chapel of St. Louis and $40
to the American Lutheran Publicity Bureau’s work.
Then, too, the Society contributed $10 for the pur-
chase of Bibles at the City Infirmary and $10 to
help cover the expenses during soul-saving week at
the Niedringhaus Mission. The Provident Com-
mittee of the Society collected, and sent to Miss
Rosa Young in Alabama, 150 pounds of clothing
and gave the St. Louis City Mission 125 pounds of
worn clothes. About 1,500 tracts were distributed
in the course of the year. These interesting items
we take from the Macedonian, the official organ of
the Society.

BOOK TABLE.

The Statistical Year-Book of the Ev. Luth. Synod of
Missouri, Ohio, and Other States for the Year 1024.
Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo. Price,
$1.00. .

The information given in this book about every mis-
sion of the Missouri Synod, every congregation, every in-
stitution and enterprise under the control and super-
vision of the General Body, some District, or organizations
and associations, could easily be expanded into volumes.
It would be most desirable to have a copy of this Year-
Book in every congregation connected with the Missouri
Synod, so that every member might have an opportunity
to have an insight into the business of the organization
in which he holds membership. It is an immense amount
of labor that Statistician Eckhardt must have put into
this volume, much more than most of us can realize.

To commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of Dr. F. Pie-
per, reference to which was made in the June number of
the Proneer, the colleagues of the Doctor have dedicated
this special number to their teacher and colaborer. The
number contains nine complete articles of more than usual
interest and value, two of which are English. F.J.L.
