both spiritually and in material way.
gramme and general plans for a contin-
uance OF the life of the organization in
the Twin Cities were completed.
In the absence of the president, Rev.
G. H. Trabert, William Lundgren pre-
sided at the opening session in the morn.
ing. Rev. A. ]. D. Haupt. of the Memorial
church, made the address Of welcome
followed by a response by Rev. A. Ram
sey, Of st. Johns English Lutheran
church, of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Haupt spoke encouragingly Of the
growth and progress of the league He
thought the greatest barrier that had to
be overcome was the wide diversity in
the nationality Of It's members. Mr. Ram
sey said some opposition had come from
the pastors Of the Twin Cities, but the
impression that had gained circulation
that the league was not a strong ally of
the church was false conception.
M. S. Kindseth, Of Minneapolis, thought
there should be no jealousy as to speech,
and he predicted rapid outgrowing of
any such prejudice.
Rev. Mr.. Haupt sounded the kew note of
the discussion when he said the chief
hindrance to the society was the obiec-
ton of many of the Lutheran pastors to
the English sentiment among the youne
people of the church.
A discussion Of the problem followed
and there was general sentiment in
favor of Angliczation in the Lutheran
church. and 1t was thought by many to be
a departure of the near future.
Two papers were read during the after
noon. A paper written by Miss H. Pfef-
fer upon the Luther League" was read
by Pastor Lease The work Of the COM
mittees was discussed in paper by Pres
ident Trabert.
A short vesper service was held before
the address of the evening, which was de-
lvered by Rev. Alfred Ramsey, of Min
neapolis, on 1.-THE Measure Of RESPONSE
