NEWS OF PULPIT AND PEW IN HARRISBURG
TO PUT LUTHERAN
CHURCH IN LEAD
Leading Synod of Denomina
tion to Hold Important
Adjourned Session
When the Ministerlum of Pennsyl
vania and adjacent States, the oldest
district synod of the Lutheran church
in this country, closed its one hundred
and sixty-ninth annual convention in
Reading about the middle of June last
year, it adjourned to meet in special
session at the call of the president to
consider several items of far-reaching
importance. The Rev. H. A. Weller,
D. I>„ formerly pastor at Orwigsburg.
'Pa., the tirst salaried president of the
synod, who took charge of its affairs
■on September first, has called this ad
ijourned session to meet in St. Mark's
Church, Thirteenth and Spring Garden
streets, Philadelphia, beginning Tues
day, January thirtieth.
Dr. Weller, who was formerly a law
yer and who served the mlnisterium
'for thirteen years as its treasurer, di
rects the affairs or the body from an
office in the Penn Square building,
Philadelphia. He accepted the office of
president, to which he devotes his en
tire time, under the profound conviction
that the time had come when the
"Mother Synod" had the opportunity
and responsibility of assuming a larger
leadership in present-day church activi
ties of the denomination than she has
held thus far. He regards the com
ing session of his body as destined to
be epoch-making in the history of the
church in this country; and he has been
preparing the members of the body
for the convention by stirring speeches
in various centers ever since he assum
ed office. He takes the position that
the Lutheran church must of necessity
take an advanced position in religious
circles in this year of the four hun
dredth anniversary of the Protestant re
formation; and he hopes to see the
synod over which he has been chosen
to preside take the lead in occupying
that advanced ground.

One in discussing it need never pre
pare for a dull time. Dr. Clayton Al

yet seen one so old, or infirm, but
that tlieir attention could be arrested
by the recital of some interesting love
story. To-morrow evening at 7.30

Methodist Episcopal Church, Thir
teenth and Vernon streets, a story of
that sort will be told by the minister.
The special theme of this sermon-lec
ture is to be: "A PLOT FOB A WIFE"

KER." You will want to hear it. The
best seat in the house is yours if you
reach it first. Don't you miss it.—adv.

OPEN CAMPAIGN FOR
SIOO,OOO TO
CITY RESCUE MISSION
John Fulton, superintendent of the i
City Rescue Mission, 107 South Second
street, last night lired the opening gun
in a big campaign to raise SIOO,OOO
for a new building and a maintenance
fund.
Mr. •Fulton addressed tho Alrleks
Association in St. Andrew's Protestant
Episcopal Church, Nineteenth and
Market streets, explaining the needs
of the mission, the work it is trying
to do and tho necessity of the church
people of the city getting behind the
movement.
"Skidding" was the subject of Mr.
Fulton's adress and he showed how
men skid from uprightness into sin.
He then pointed out that the church
people to do their full duty by their
fellows should provide places where
the down-and-outer can get right with
his God and begin life anew. The City
Rescue Mission, ho showed, is lifting
men out of the gutter and putting
them on their feet. The mission is
cramped in its present quarters to
