Two Local Churches
Participate in
Synod Centennial

Congregations of St. Johns
and the Redeemer Lutheran
churches will join with some
million and a half other men,
bers of the Missouri Synod
Lutheran churches this Sunday
to commemorate the Tooth an
niversary of the founding of
the church.
A mass celebration of the
centennial will be held in Chi
cago during July in connection
with the triennial convention
of the Synod.
In April, ls47, % Lutheran
pastors met in Chicago, at
that time a town of 10000, to
organize the Evangelical Luth-
eran Synod of Missouri, Ohio
and other states. The meeting
adopted a vigorous program
and steps were taken to &C
quire two institutions for the
training of pastors, one in Fort
Wayne, Ind, and one in Perry
county, Mo.
Immigrant missions were es-
tablished in New York, Balti-
more and New Orleans to d.
rect the flood of newcomers to
the United States to places
where they would be within
reach of the church. Not
enough pastors were available
for the advancing frontier, so
circuit riding pastors served
dozens of settlements.
The growth of this conServa-
tive church body is revealed by
the following statistics: Organ
lied with 16 congregations
numbering a total of less than
1000 as charter members, the
Synod now has 1854, 900 ad-
herents and is the largest in
dividual Synod of the Lutheran
faith. Its present numerical
strength is concentrated in the
central and midwestern states,
but it has churches and miss
ion stations in every state of
the union, as well as in Can
ada, Alaska, Mexico, Cuba, the
Hawaiian Islands, England,
Panama and South America.
The Missouri Synod is divid-
ed into 80 districts, each free
to elect its own officers and to
control its own internal af-
fairs. The three Canadian dis
tricts have a membership of
$4,000, while the two South
American districts have $4,000
members enrolled. Foreign
mission work is carried on in
India, China, Africa and the
Philippine Islands. Some 1000
active pastors and missionaries
are on the Synod's roster, while
1000 ministerial students are
enrolled in it's college.
More than 1000 congrega-
lions maintain their own full
time schools. These are attend
Ell by 10000 pupils who are
taught by $500 teachers. Eight
Lutheran high schools have a
total enrolment of 2,400. The
Sunday school enrolment is
$4,000, while 10000 pupils at
tend Saturday schools and
other part-time agencies.

Daily Rates Increased
50 Gents and 81 by
Arlington Hospital

Arlington Hospital last night an
nounced increases of so cents to a
dollar in daily rates for ward and
semi private beds, in a move to
check mounting operating losses.
Beds in children's wards were
raised from IS to &c. Those in four
bed wards for adult patients went
from Sc to ST, while semiprivate
accommodations, two beds in a
room, were increased from $7.5O
to So.
Private room rates were left un-
changed, at SO and $40 day.
The increase in Arlington's
charges for semiprivate beds was
the second in three months. A So
cent raise in this type of accom-
modation was announced in July
after hospital officials reported
semiprivate beds cost more at other
hospitals.
Our increased rates have been
necessitated by sharply increased
COSTS" explained Karl H. York, hos
pital administrator, when the an
nouncement was made.
Average Patient Costs S15.49.
He said services extended to each
patient at the hospital now cost
an average of $3.50 a day. The
former room rates, plus extrs
charges for operating room, drugs
and other hospital items, did not
bring the average patients payment
to this figure, he asserted.
Mr.. York listed the hospitals
total operating costs through Au-
gust of this year at 1851 $50, which
put it $48,443 In the red:

of the year. The daily loss or

Arlington Hospital receives only
IS a day for INDECENT cases from
the Health Security Administration
which dispenses Community Chest
Federation funds. Arlington County
makes up the difference between S.
and actual cost for tax-eligiblt
county residents, about 20 per CEN

tions. The September, 1916. drive
raised $4,000, but another cam
paign last May netted only $4,000
While regretting the necessity tt
raise room rates, Mr. York pointed
out that the average patients hospi
tai expenses are limited today by
the fact that most people don't stay
as long in their hospital beds as they
once did.
Usual Stay Is Six Days.
At Arlington, he said, the average
stay is only six and half days, du'
