Oldest I.utlirran lloil; The Ministerium of Pennsylvania. ■ lating its organization from 1748, is ihe oldest Lutheran synod in Amer •a and is composed of congregations mattered throughout ir Clinngc Constitution The coming sessions bid fair to be of epoch making character for more than one reason. An entire new con stitution is to be presented for con sideration. It may be several years before Its final adoption. It is pro posed to elect a salaried president who shall give his entire time to the duties of the office, a complete departure from the former practice of the body. Specu lation is rife as to the probable per sonality of the first encumbent of this special office. Equally interesting and absorbing will be the plans of the synod's parti cipation in the great celebrations of the 400 th anniversary of the Protestant reformation, which.will occur in 1917. The present officers of the minis terium are: President, the Rev. John A. N. Haas, D. D., I.L D., president of Muhlenberg College; English secre tary, the Rev. W. L Stough, Philadel phia; German secretary, tlie Rev. H. D. E. Siebott, Phllade)phla; treasurer, the Rev. is. A. Weller, Orwlgsville. PRESBYTER I.\X Bethany—The ltev. John M.

I "The war has brought all the Euro- ] pean nations to their knees. It has I driven formal religion down Into the! ! hearts and developed a vital personal piety never before known.
