erty of science, liberty in arts and pro-
gress in civilization. The present re-
ligious, moral and political elevation
Of the world is tho oirect result of
what the Lutheran Reformation has
done for the world.
Education.
From the beginning the Lutheran
church has been active in the work of
education. The fundamental principles
of the Reformation naturally led to this.
Since the Lutheran church teaches that
man is justified by personal faith and
the scriptures are the only rule of faith
and life, it follows that men must be
educated SO that they may use and ap-
ply the scriptures.
Luther understood the necessity of
education and declared that no class
should be left in ignorance. The Refor-
nation did much for the education of
the people. Luther has rightly been call
er the father Of the public school.
The Lutheran church has ever favored
higher learning. 1t encourages inves.
tigation, welcomes discoveries and fa-
vors progress in culture. When the Lu.
theran church fails to foster schools
of every grade it is untrue to its prin-
Aciples and history. "That all may come
to the knowledge of the TRUTH has
been its motto and Wherever it exists
a strong influence for education flour
ishes.
The Lutheran church includes in its
membership no less than 76,246,396 of
the 1852, 2,346, 1896 Protestants in the world
In the United States and Canada alone
there are a total of 2,445,27 adult con-
firmed Lutherans, with about 10000, 900
Lutheran population. The Lutheran
church is the third largest of the Pro-
testant denominations in America, it
promises to become what ex-President
Roosevelt predicted she would become,
namely "one of the three or four great
est evangelical forces in America.''

/ Lutherans all over the United States
these days are celebrating the quadri-
centennial of the Reformation by Mar
tin Luther. To Luther and the church
which he established are men Of modern
times indebted for the opportunity of
worshipping God according to the die
tates of conscience and the clear en-
unciations of scripture. When Luther
stood before the Diet at Worms the lib
critics of the world living in the balance.
When he was tried liberty was tried.
When he won, liberty was victorious.
When, before God and all the dignitar-
les of Europe, he declared that unless
convinced by scripture or other valid
reason he would not recant, then mod
ern freedom was born. Luther's victory
over Papacy was the first dawn Of
modern freedom. 1t would be foolish to
deny this and claim that history errs.
Among the fruits Of Luther's work
which we enjoy today we mention: uni
versal emancipation Of thought, freedom
conscience, liberty of speech, liberty
of press, liberty of education, liberty
of government, liberty of worship, lib
