Sixty-Seven Years.of Service Is the Glowing Record of One of the Lutheran Church’s Foremost Pastors.— He Npw Resides in Concord 1 By W. M. Sherrill. Sixty-seven years of service to his church iq the record of Rev. L. A. Bikle, D. D-, of this city, who on November 6 celebrated the 67th an niversary of his entrance into church work and who on November 6 cele brated the 01st anniversary of his birth. Today as financial secretary of St. James Lutheran church, ol Concord, Dr. Bikle is actively engag ed in church work, finding time and the inclination to devote the greater part' of each day to some phase of religious activity as it relates to St. James church. It is the boast of Dr. Bikle and members of his church that he keeps financial matters up to date at all times. For a number of years he has been financial secretary of St. James and although he has reached an age Where most men would find it pleas ant to sit and meditate on past ac complishments, he chooses ari active life and fills each day with present deeds.' So successful has Dr. Bikle as a collector of church finances that his reputation has spread to other-, fields often one hears the re mark about a debt that is bard to collect: "Give it to Dr. Bikle; he can get it.” As an educator, preacher and thinker, Dr. Bikle has wielded an important influence on Lutheranism in North Carolina. His counsel has been sought for many .years on church matters and due to the fact that he has retained the full faculties of an active and cultured mind, his advice is still sought on weighty questions affecting the church ns a whole. While he has been more active as a preacher and educator, Dr. Bikle has also been prominently identified with the fraternal life of North Car olina for more than half a~ century. He is at present chaplain of Concord Lodge B. P. O. E., is actively asso ciated with the lodgt of Knights of Pythias and continues work as a Mason that was begun when the present lodge was first organized. He has held various offices with the Pythians and Masons and at the opening of the new Mnsonie home here several nights ago gave u de tailed report of the various Masonic charters issued for Corfcofd, which culminated in the present lodge. A keen student, a wide reader and a highly educated man, Dr. Bikle keeiis in touch with "present day hap penings. He finds temptations no greater now than they were when he was a youth, and modern customs aud tendencies fail to frighten him. Dr. Bikle spends part of each eve ning at the "movies,” eye sight being so good that he can enjoy the pictures as well as a younger per son. After the “movies" he. walks to ,his home a distance of a quarter of a mile. Louis Alfred Bikle is the son of the late Christian Immanuel and Bar bara Regina Bikle. He was born No vember 6, i 834. at Thurmont, Md., and was instructed in Luther’s cate chism when a youth. He was con firmed at the age of 16 and soon thereafter entered the Smitlisburg academy, later going to Pennsylvania college, from which he was graduat ed in 1857, delivering the Latin salutatory. After spending one year in the Gettysburg Theological semi nary. he was prevailed upon to con sider favorably n call to the chair of ancient languages in North Cnroliua college. Mount Pleasant. He accepted - White Hall Health Club. The White Hall Health Club met last Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Hubert Howard. Despite the in clement weather a large number of women were present.

North Carolina college was operat ed under the auspices of the North Carolina Lutheran synod and its work prospered until the Civil war brought a halt to all public educa tional work. Tlie school closed in December, 1861, and shortly there after Dr. Bikle enlisted with the Confederate forces, serving as chap lain of the 20th North Carolina regi ment. In August, 1866, North Carolina college was re-opened wittT Dr. Bikle as president and in three years under his- leadership it grew sufficiently for the trustees to engage a corps of teachers. Dr. Bike resigned the presi dency in 1875 to Swept a call to St. James Lutheran church here, and after serving the pastorate four years returned to the college as president. In 1884 he accepted work in the bounds of the Tennessee synod and continued in connection with that body for 20 years as pastor of St. Matthew's church, King's Mountain. However, Dr. Bikle still retained his love for teaching and while at King’s Mountain served six years as pro fessor in Gaston Female college, Dal las, and later as principal and pro fessor for five years of the King’s iMountain high school. In 1904 he gave up his streuous work as teach er and preacher to spend the re mainder of his day in less arduous toil. He has made .Concord his home since leaving King's Mountain. Because of his influence in the church Dr. Bikle was employed to obtain the adoption of a definite statement of the Lutheran faith. This occurred during the 70's of the last century and was occasioned by the contemplation of a revision of the constitution of the synod. He was in vited to act ns an , advisory member of this committee for revision and recommended that their first duty was the setting forth of the Luth eran basis! of faith, the confessions of the church as correctly exhibiting the Lutheran faith. This was adopi eiKby the committee and at a sub sequent special meeting of the synod it was unanimously adopted. / M president of the synod Dr. Bikle aTbo recommended the abolition of the licensure system and submit ted a standard of academic and theological education that would justify the synod in granting ordina tion upon a satisfactory completion of this required work. The synod approved of this recommendation. Dr. Bikle was married December 27, 1859, to Misp Ann Christzman, of Gettysburg, Pa,, one of six sisnrs, four of whom married Lutheran .ministers. By this marriage there were three children, two sons and a daughter. The first born son died in infancy and the other at the age of 40. On December 23, 1879, the daughtetr. Lula Kate, became the wife of G. W. Means, of Concord, with whom Dr. Bikle has been mak ing his home since 1904. His wife died February 8. 1900. and is buried in Oakwood cemetery, this city. At a'-■congregational meeting heli| in St. James church reAtrrtly, Dr. Bikle was presented with a hand some purse, containing *7O in gold, it being explained that the gold was a token of love for his Service and the purse an aid to. him in continu ing his 100 per cent collections for the church Agnes Penick Missionary Society. Roth circles of the Agnes Penick Missionary Society of Rocky Rivet- Church met at the home of Mrs. B. A. Suppenfield on last Thursday af ternoon for a study of the new mission book.
