ALS president of the synod, and to his successors. A resolution accepting the cross ex- plained that although the synod did not adopt any episcopal symbol to be worn by the president office, the gift | would be cherished as a symbol of unity | between two independent Lutheran Churches. The resolution was passed after Dr. ! Brandelle had asked a decision in the matter and had contended that the president of the Augustana Synod a ready posses the rank and prerogatives of a bishop. His acceptance of the cross had aroused some criticism in synodical quarters last Winter Attending the synod convention were clerical and lay delegates from all parts of the United States and from Canada and the mission fields of China and Africa. In his annual report Dr. Brandelle pleaded for a continuance of prohibition laws, declaring that “a great reform like this requires a long time to grow into the consciousness of the people.” |lllI|IIll|IllIII|Illllll"IllIIl|Il|!I||||l|IllIIIIlllllllllllllfllllfllg For All Purposes es on This First Quality! 3—Branches—3 H § = § H s H E 3 = g = H H H H = H H H = £ H 4 H MAIN OFFICE—6th & C Sts.
