St. Andrews Lutheran Church to Purchase Pipe Organ, Jan. 17, 1921

At the close of the service in St. Andrews’ Lutheran church yesterday, Pastor Peery spoke briefly of the need of a pipe organ, and asked for contributions to purchase one. Although no previous announcement had been made, $3,390 was subscribed in a few minutes.

Others not present will give their aid, materially increasing this sum. An order for an organ to cost $4,000 will be placed at once. This is the way St. Andrews’ good people do things; and their generosity and self reliance are to be highly commended.
