WILL HOLD MISSION FESTIVAL
At the Zion Lutheran Church Sunday,
October 2S-Missouri Synod Liturgy

At the Zion Lutheran Church Sunday,
October 2S-Missouri Synod Liturgy
Adopted for the Services.
At the Zion German Lutheran church,
corner of Davenport avenue and Ward
street, there were services held yester-
day morning at 1880 o'clock and in the
evening at 1880 o'clock At the morn
ing service the Lords Supper was
served. Rev. Frederick Ottmann, the
pastor Of the church, preached two very
forcible sermons. The church was well
filed at both services. The pastor an
nounced that those who intended to en-
ter the confirmation class should meet
at the parsonage this afternoon at b
O'clock. This will enable those who 90
not attend the parochial school con-
nected with the church to be present.
At 3:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon
the regular meeting Of the members OF
the church was held In the church.
President Conrad Hofacker presided.
1t was voted to hold mission festival
at the church on Sunday morning, Oc-
tober % mission festival Is usually
held with the Bridgeport and Danbury
Lutheran churches at some convenient
place for all, but this year, on account
of the changes in the pastorates or
the Bridgeport, Danbury and New Ha-
ven churches, none was held A COM
mittee had previously been appointed
to look into the matter. The commit
tee reported In favor Of the Zion Luth-
eran church holding one this year IN
the church and the members adopted
the recommendation. 1t was voted
that the India mission should be given
a share Of the proceeds of the festival
Rev. Mr.. Ottmann spoke In favor OF
changing the present mode OF service
to that Of the Missouri Synod liturgy.
The consensus of opinion among the
members seemed to be that as the Zion
church is a member OF the Missouri
Synod 1t was no more than right TO
used the Synod's liturgy 1t was ur1ari-
jmously adopted as the service hereaf-
ter. It is very beautiful service.

SOME AUTHORS MISTAKES.
Writers arc Seldom Grateful When
tho Editor Corrccts Their Copy.


Most authors are furious at the bare
suggestion of editing their manuscripts
said a man VINO used to be a reader in a
big publishing house, but you would be
surprised at the ludcrous 5lunders made
by the best of them. When j writer IS
accessible. the usual plan is to mark the
bad breaks on the proof slips and send
them TO him with a discreet note re-
questing Z correction, but when a house
is getting out Il book in a hurry, or when
the author is abroad, this is often impos-
s!iJle. and then the situation becomes
very ticl.lish.
L remember, for instance, I was once
reading the proofs of Il novel by one of
our best known and crankiest women
writer's. she was away on a visit to
Mexico, and hadIcft strict orders to fol-
low COPY to the .etter. In one OF her ear
ly chapters the hero Was Shaving himself
after a long punting trip, and was ex-
actly half through when Interrupted by
the sudden arrival of the villain \ stormy
scene followed. and eventually all hands
adjourned 10 a fashionable ball The au-
tnoreSs evidently forgot that her man was
still half shaved, and took the liberty
OF finishing the job. When she saw the
book she vas very angry because | had
Interpreted eight or nine words and [
awore l would never again play the bar
per 10 save anybody's reputation.
Another writer, for whom we got out
n story, made one of his characters
empty his revolver at a rctreating burg
lar, and a moment later sent two bullets
crashing through a window TO show a
rival how quick he was on the trigger I
called his attention to the ineXhauStible
pistol, and he never spoke to me after
ward. In an earlier novel by the same
man you will find reference to the hero's
dark, smooth shaven face and on the
very next page he is twirling his nous
tache.' | noticed it in proof, but remem-
bered my experience with the woman and
let il so.
1t is a common thing for writer's to
locate Well-known streets, park, art gal
ieries and monuments in the wrong cities.
and they make the sun rise and set at all
the points of the compass. We had to de-
lay L book for Il whole season once be-
cause the author located the Windward
Islands off the coast of South Carolina,
ana then Went away to Japan before any
body discovered the mistake. To make
the correction involved changing the
whole action of the story, which, of
course, nobody dared to do New Orleans
