died in 1916. The influence of this hero
and the German reformation spread
through Germany and into other countries
where it found such leaders as Calvin
Zwingli. John Knox, and the Wesleys. Its
effect upon the world is seen in its infiu-
ences upon the Church. The contrast be-
tween the Protestant Church of today and
the Catholic Church of the sixteenth CEN
fury is very marked. This change is due
largely to the reformation as inaugurated
in Germany with Martin Luther as its
leader. We find instead of resting his be-
lief upon tradition. DEGREES of councils and
popes, the Christian of today is exhorted
to base his confidence in the word Of God
only. The Bible has taken the place of
tradition and purely human commands.
Repentance and faith are the bases Of sal
walton. through Jesus Christ instead of in
dulgences."
The speaker here read extracts Of John
Tetzel's sermons as recorded in D'Au-
bigne's history Of the Reformation.
The German Reformation not only
brought the world. through the Protestant
churches, to the open Bible and the truth.
but indirectly its influence has made the
Roman Catholic Church of today far SUI
perior to what it was in the sixteenth CEN
fury. 1t has sanctified the home, pro-
y,
to the world, through the freedom OF wor-
Shipping God according to the dictates OF
the conscience, civic liberty.
While all Protestants should rejoice
In the commemoration OF the German
Reformation, Lutherans should pre-emin-
antly do so. Our church bears the name of
the immortal hero, and is the largest
among the Protestant denominations. OF
the 150.O00,000 Protestants of all creeds in
the world, over 50.000.0 900, OF more than
one-third, are Lutherans. In the last dec
ade our denomination, according to some
statisticans. has risen from the fourth to
the third Protestant denomination In the
country. A glorious future is before us.
Let US love our church, the church with
such glorious history.
Ny church. my church, my dear old church,
Ny fathers and my own;
On prophets and apostles built,
With truth the cornerstone; No.
All else beside by storm or tide
May yet be ovcrthrown;
But not my church. my dear old church,
My fathers and my own.
On Friday evening OF this week St.

Of the RefOrmer.


At St. Paul's English Lutheran Church,
corner OF H and Eleventh Streets, north

at yesterday mornings services. chose as
his theme 1.-The German Reformation and

in the course OF his sermon:
In the passing of the centuries many
momen;ous events have occurred. Since
the beginning of the Christian era the
world has witnessed many important

browning OF Charemagne, 500; the Magma
Charta for England. 1915; discovery of
America, 1892; printing with movable type,
143S; landing of Pilgrims. 1920, Declara-
tion of Independence, 1776: Fulton and the
steamboat. 1907: telegraph, 1874. and the
emancipation OF 100000 slaves in 1863,
were important events, but the most i'm
portant event since the early establishment
of Christianity is the German reformation
of the sixteenth century.
THE central figure Of this reformation
was Martin Luther. Born at Eislebru No
vember 10. 1853; educated in the schools
at Magdeburg, Eisecach. and Erfurth: or
dained priest. 1907; visited Rome, 1910;
nailed his ninety five theses on the church
door in Wittenberg October 81, 1917: ex-
communicated from the Roman Catholic
Church. 1920: attended Diet at Worms,
1921: married Catherine Won Bora. 1925:

of the concerts was the rendition of scenes
from Faust in the afternoon and Trio

Of the Innes organization participated in
these selections. and with the admirable
background of the brasses and reeds the
effect was very enjoyable visit to the
opera.
The Innes band is particularly strong in
