HOW IT ORIGINATED.

synopsis of the Passion Play by FHthe,
Van Clarenbeck.
The Passion Play was first produced
nearly three hundred years ago in the
village Of OberanmerRan in Bavaria,
Germany, and its origin In itself Ii
unique.
A terrible plague had been raging III
that section for time and people were
dying BY the hundreds. All efforts tc
stop it were unsuccessful. The people
assembled and, in solemn procession
through the streets Of the plague
stricken district, supplicated God to
deign to stop the ravages Of this de.
stroyer Of human life. And In order to
inhame the hearts Of men with love for
the suffering Saviour they vowed to
produce play portraying the life Of
Christ, once every ten years. Strange
to say, the day following tho first pro-
duction, the plague ceased and has
never repeated itself True to their vow
each succeeding generation has taken
up the task and given the play.
