LUTHERAN SYNOD
TO PAY PRESIDENT
People of Little Mountain thanked
for Hospitality in Entertain

The State.
Little Mountain, Nov. 7.-Waat
nromises to be one of the best ses-
sions of the South Carolina. Luth-
eran synod ever held came to a close
Thursday night at Little Mountain
Several departures of unusual I'M
nortance marked the business OF the
session.
One venture away from the time
honored custom was the election OF
a salaried president. The retiring
president, the Rev. H. j. Black OF
Charleston, was unanimously chosen
to this important position.
Mr.. Black has proved himself a
good officer and has managed the
affairs of the Office in an efficient
manner.
The work of the Office requires
that the president give his whole time
to the work and therefore denies to
him the work of any local pastorate.
The recent development OF the
work of the Lutheran church in this
state put too great a burden on
pastor who must also have the over
sight of his own parish.
Other officers Of synod elected
were: DR.. H. A. Mccullough, vice
president, the Rev. C. j. Shealy,
secretary; W. A. Counts, treasurer,
A. H. Kohn of Columbia was elect
ed treasurer of the 100000 educa-
ton fund.
The campaign for benevolence in
all the churches was enthusiastically
indorsed. Doubling all past benev-
olences is the plan Of the campaign.
W. A. Hentske of Columbia is man.
ager of the campaign in the synod.
He is enthusiastic over the outlook
Notwithstanding the funds so recently
raised by the churches. He says the
people are ready to 60 forward in
this larger work and realize the ne
cessity of aggressive work of the
Christian religion in the unsettled
condition of the world.
A vote of thanks was given the
people of Little Mountain for their
hospitality in entertaining synod.
Under the leadership of their pastor,
the Rev. j. J. Long, the Lutherans
here have beautiful and substantial
brick church and are doing effective
