The Abolition of Lent.

An effort is making in the Reformed
Episcopal Church to do away with the
observance of Lent as a church fast. At
a recent conference of clergymen of that
denomination in Philadelphia it was deci-
ded to recommend the policy of aban.
doning The service to the General Stand
ing Committee, on the ground that the
indulgence in worldly pleasures before
and after Lent is increased BY way OF
compensation for enforced abstention
during the season of fasting, and upon
the further ground that uniform modera.

and that this my be better secured with
out Lenten observances than with them
The change, if it shall be made, will be a
radical one, and will work wider breach

churches in this coan,ry.-N J. Ecea-
