Lent has BEGUN

MANY WILL LAY ASIDE WlClRdlDLY
THINGS FOR THE NEXT FORTY
DAYS.
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday, the
first day OF Lent. For the next forty
days society viii go into partial retire
ment. Dances, as we'll as the mere
iorma! socla, functions, viii be sus-
pended during the Lenten season, and
only less formal amusements will be
indulged in.
The day was observed in the Roman
Catholic, Protestant Episcopal and
Lutheran churches with solemn cere-
mony. The office for the day in some
of the liturgical churches opens with
the ceremony, which has given the
day its name. After the in.troits and
collects, in which pardon and mercy
are implored for the penitent, have
Been recited, the faithful approach,
and while they kneel at the altar tine
pricet touches the forehead cf each
with ashes, saying as he does so, IRE
member, man, that thou art dust and
shalt return to dust" The ashes uses
in the ceremony are obtained by burn
ling the palms Of the previous year.
In the early days OF the church the
administration cf the ashes was made
only to public penitents and not TO all
the faithful. The penitents had tc
appear before the church door in peni-
tential garb and with bare feet. After
the penances had been imposed upon
them they were brought into th'
church before the bishop, who place.
the ashes upon their heads, saying
in addition ito the words addressed
to the faithful: Repent, that thol
mayst have eternal life" He ther
delivered a solemn address.
The present custom cf administer
ing the signs Of repentance to all VIII
present themselves arose from tn
fact that friends OF pubic penitente
out Of affection or humility, joine
u them, expressing in their outward ap
j pearances similar contrition, an
+ Offering their foreheads also TO b
Il eprinkled with the ashes. The mum
Der gradually increased until it in
n cluded the whole congregation.
+ The day was rgidly observed as
fast day in many instances. The LEI

d ance of the season usually prescrSl
