Gettysburg. Pa.
Four of the best known missionaries
of the Evangelical Lutheran church
spoke from the pulpits Of other
churches. Miss Jessie S. Thomas, of
Guntur, India, addressed large con-
gregation at the Trinity Lutheran
hurch. Miss Johanna Wunderlich,
formerly missionary in Rentichinta,
la. India. now one of the Soclety's held
secretaries, spoke AT the Warwood
Lutheran church: Mrs: NJ. E: THOMAS
Of Narasaravupet. India. at the Edge

sic Brewer, a former missionary, and
now,a field secretary stationed at wal
Transport. Pa. al 81. Marks Lutner-
an church. ut Elm Grove.
Bible school students at the tlrsI
Lutheran church enjoyed special
treat yesterday morning in the ad-
dresses of Sister Laura Gilleland, or
Liberia, Africa, and Mrs. Albrecht, OF
India. Sister Gilleland's address was
all the more interesting because OF the
fact that the little country in which
her life has been devoted to missions
has but within the past few days
taken the side Of the United States IN
the war.
Dr.. Singmaster's Address.
DR.. J. Z. Singmaster, in his address
before the Reformation mass meeting
last evening on Our Reformation
Heritage added touch OF new m
terest TO the oft told story OF the
greatest event OF the Sixteenth CEN

said, might think that we are en-
gagged in trifling work, at this time
when the drums are rafting and the
bugles are calling men to war, that
we should pause 10 coIo ider some.
thing that transptred four hundred
years ago. Yet it could be only the
non-thinking man who would say so,
for the things that are transporting to-

be settled permanently in the appli-

The Reformation. history proves 10

that no sect can claim to be sole heirs
to It's blessings. We allow our breth-

but the Lutheran church. we feel,

duty in the Reformation. The Lu-

Blessings of Open Bible. -,
THE first blessing that l would
mention" said DR.. Singmaster, sis the
open Bible. The open Bible is so
common to US that We can scarcely
realize what the world would be with.

without Bible in Luther's day. Bibles
were so scarce that they were
