Questions on Christian Topics. By Carl Manthey-Zorn.
Third Edition. Northwestern Publishing House, Mil-
waukee, Wis. 335 pages. Price, 60 cts. Order from
Concordia Publishing House, St. Louis, Mo.

It does not surprise us that this translation of Dr. Zorn’s
Christenfragen is seeing its third edition. The chapters
treat live questions of the day in a live way, and Pastor
Rimbach has rendered a fluent translation of the original.
But should this edition not have brought the history of
the Lutheran Church in America up to date? We feel
that cognizance should have been taken of the merger of
the General Synod, the General Council, and the United
Synod in the South as well as the more recent merger of
Ohio, Iowa, and Buffalo. The reviewer should also have
been pleased to see reference made to the Norwegian and
Swedish Lutheran organizations. But these strictures
are of very minor importance. We can only say, If you
haven’t this book on your shelf, you are without a very
handy book of reference.

How Peter Became Pope.

ordinary student might find very difficult to locate.
