A few years ago when the Lutherdn church had a convention in a western city many of the citizens of that city had the pleture of Martin Luther hang- ing in a front window of their home. Two men were passing one of these homes when one, sceing the picture, ask- ed the other whose it was. “That is Martin Luther,” the other lied. “What is he running for?" the first jone asked.
