DRAKE & DRAKE Registered Optometrist Over IiOtspelrh's Variety Store IC Mit of Lutheran State Convention I Meld at IMkhler, N-lr. Lutli- ernn Faith Outlined Hcv. Titus Lung, pastor of Imman- uel'B Lutheran church of Alliance, jhHH returned from the stnte conven tion at. DfHhler und gives the follow ing report, compiled by the publicity i committee: j At the Lutheran state convention of Missouri Synod nt Deshler, Ncbr.. I August 18 to 24. the Rev. C. H. Beck er of Seward, for fifteen years pres ident of the district and 'head of the home mission boHrd, declined nomin ation for reflection. His rapidly ! growing church nt Seward Joined In 'his request for release, which the j synod had to concede wus well merit led. In this connection the president gives out the following summary of I the history, aims and trend of the church. This statement Is u synop sis of addresses held at the mission festival Sunday In Deshler nt the Thayer county fair grounds. ! "The Lutheran church Is the moth er church of Protestantism. Origin ally 'the terms 'Lutheran and Pro testant' were synonymous. Those men who nt the Diet of Spires made the famous protest a gainst religious 'inequality and civil disabilities on account of religion were co-workers iand followers of Luther.' And it was nfter that protest that they were called Lutherans by their opponents. "Protestantism as an organized ec clesiastical movement dates its orig in from publication of the Augsburg Confession, June 25. 1630. And this Augsburg Confession, which Was wholly Lutheran, laid the doctrinal foundation of all the later Protestant churches. "Dr. Philip Schaff. a great scholar and historian, tho not a Lutheran, wrote: 'Martin Luther made the. Lutheran church the mother church of the Reformation, the mother of Protestantism, the leader of nations, the pioneer of foreign missions, and the most conservation and the most substantial denomination in the world.' Broad as the Bible "The Lutheran Vhurch Is some times by its critics called narrow. But the Lutherans claim it is only as narrow as the Bible and on the oth er hand, just as broad as the Bible, as liberal as the spirit of the living God. They put down aB their first principle neither to 'add unto' nor 'tuke away from' (Rev. 12:18, 19) the teachings of the Bible. They make no apology for conservatism, and claim that the truth once re vealed by God in His book cannot be subject to the varying opinions of various ages but is always the same, eternal. The loyalty of the average Lutheran to his church is very mark ed, as he is persuaded that no church in faith, worship and order is in such accord with the church framed by Christ and His apostles as the Lutheran church. The catechism compiled by Luther in 1G29 is to this day used without change as the basis for religious instruction. The strang er among the Lutherans may find customs and ceremonies which be never heard of before. But when be gets to know that the Lutherans have a fine sense of proportion, dis tinguishing carefully between hum an customs and commands of God he begins to respect them for not light ly throwing away what has been found useful In the experience of many centuries while at the same time granting full liberty in these matters to other Lutherans. "The first Protestant missionaries sent into foreign fields in India, in the East and Iceland and Greenland in th West, were Lutherans. Before even John Eliot, sometimes called the 'Apostle to the Indians' set foot on Amerifan soil and before the cum in, of William Penn, the Lntheran Swedes in Delaware were preaching the Gospel to the Indians. And the first- book printed for the red men was the Lutheran Catechism trans lated by a Lutheran pastor Into their language long before the Eliot In dian Bible. . "The many charitable inatliutiors of thi Lutheran church over nil the country, orphanages, home-ttndlut societies, old folks' homes, hocpirals and asylums for the deaf mutes and feeble minded, give evidence of the prevalence of the same spirit which Impelled the Lutheran pastor Aug ust Herman Francke to found the first and greatest orphan asylum in Halle, Germany, for 2000 children. "The Lutheran church is an edu cational church. tains a complete and harmonious the Lutheran church Is the largest Protestant body in the world, whilst In the United States it ranks third. In the pamphlet prepared for the re ligious celebration of New York's tercentenary the statement is found that the outstanding fact In the growth of the churches of New York City Is the tremendous growth of the Lutheran church. This growth Is even more marked In some western centers. Dr. Carroll the United states statistician for a recent cen sus asserts that In twenty years the Lutheran growth was 115 percent, the second largest growth was that of the Roman Catholic with 99 per cent. I'retuh the Old Gospel "Conservative Lutherans are not friendly to fads and fancies, specula tions and shifting opinions. They preach sin and grace, repentance and salvation thru Jesus Christ, the old unadulterated Gospel. "When challenged as to their Lu theran adherence they are likely to answer in the words of that hero of the Reformation period, the Mar grave of Bradenburg: 'I was not bap tized in the name of Luther he is not my Favious; I do not rest my faith in him; and therefore, In this sense I am no Lutheran. But If I be asked whether with my heart and lips I profess the doctrines which God restored to light by the instru mentality of His blessed servant Lu ther, I neither hesitate nor am ashamed to call myself a Lutheran. In this sense I am And, as long as 1 live, will remain a Lutheran." Exchai ge Gossip Ed Jeffers of Alliance was here Wednesday and Thursday doing some plumbing work on the Nlcker uon building.

In perfect health we hardly realize that we have a network of nerves, but when health ia ebbing, when strength is declin ing, the same nervous system gives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful sleep, irritability and unless corrected, leads straight to a breakdown.
