LUTHERAN PUBLISHING HOUSE
United Synod Decides to Build in
Columbia-The Site Has Been
Secured.
The State.

The State.
Charlotte, N, c., July 14.-The pub
lication committee of the United SYN
\ cd of the Southeran Lutheran church,
lin session at Dallas, N. c., this af-
kternoon made report recommending
sthe establishment of Lutheran pub
Blishing house at Columbia, S. c..
Through its chairman, Rev. w. L..
Seabrook, the committee reported
that private parties in Columbia had
offered the church site in the cen
tire of the business section of the city
for $4,000 and that several liberal
donations of cash to publishing
house project had been offered by
Columbia citizens. The report stated
that by means of these contributions
and first and second mortgages on the
property, ample funds could be Sc
cured wherewith to erect building
and equip it for IL publishing house.
The property is stated to be VI good
investment and at any time ii could
be sold for many times its cost.
After lengthy debate, the synod
adopted the report of the committee
and resolution of DR.. Seabrook that
the property be purchased and the
publication house established.
The synod adjourned tonight to
meet again in October, 1908, in Sa-
vannah.

urday Mr. Greever said that the prop
erty could be sold at an advance of
the price asked, $4,000, at any time,
and that a first mortgage could
easily be secured amounting to $780,
600 and that second mortagage Of
$4,000 could be arranged, thus en-
abling the committee to arrange for
the purchase of the property, the
erection of building and the provis-
ion of equipment and that this could
all be accomplished for $4,000, lcav-
ing only $4,000 to be secured in addi-
tion to the amount secured from the
mortgage. The Lutheran dcnomina-
tion in Columbia has contributed
about fl 900 towards the work.

The site of the publishing house is
in principal business locality and
the purchase price is $4,000. All of
the deeds and transfers have not yet
been made complete, and it is not yet
thought advisable to make the deti-
mite location known. When the legal
formalities arc finished, the synod
will at once-in fact has instructed
its committee to proceed with the
work. An architect will be immedi-
ately employed to draw plans for the
renovation of the present structure
and the addit; n thereto. The build
ing will be TIN . stories in height and
of large and Substantial size, occupy
ing approximately so feet frontage.
From this publishing house will be
issued the various Lutheran periodi-
Gals and in time we'll nigh all Of the
literature for Sunday school and 9TH
er work in this State and adjoin-
ing Southern territory. 90
The committee appointed by the
synod consists of Rev. w. L. Sea-
brook, chairman; Rev. John w Hor-
rine, Of Charleston, Dr. j. A. B. Scher-
er and DR.. George B. Cromer, both
Of Newberry, and Hon. D. Frank
Efird Of Lexington. This committee
will hold meeting about September
1, to formulate further plans and to
elect permanent editor for the Luth-
eran Church Visitor.
The new publishing house will mean
much to Columbia, in that many skill
ed workmen will be brought here in
addition to those already in this
line Of work in this city. Not all Of
the building will be occupied just af-
tor the establishment Of the enter
prise, by this business itself, and in
the vacant space thus afforded there
will probably be two stores on the
first floor, some new business will be
established. Some Of these are al
ready on foot.
Among those who have been parti-
cularly active in getting plans formu-
lated for presentation Of this offer
to the synod at its meeting at Dallas
was Rev. w. II. Greever Of this city.
Mr.. Greever, a ptriotic Columbian,
thinks that there is no place like this
city for the establishment Of such a
business. He has been actively con-
nected with the Lutheran publications
for some years.
The cost Of the building and prop
erty will be about $4,000. In max
ing the offer to the synod on Satur'
