THE MEANING OF LENT

By the word Lent is understood the
fast of forty days preceding Easter, kept
latter the example of Moses, Elias and
Christ Himself) in order to prepare for the
great festival OF Easter. The Greek and
Latin names for the fast, aTessarakosten
and 'Quadragesima," indicate the NUM-
Der Of days. The Italian Quaresima and
the French Careme come from the Latin.
The German Fastenzeit and Dutch Vas
ten denote the fast, while our own word
Lent, from the Anglo.Saxon Lencten,
means spring, l. e., spring fast.
While the Scriptures make no mention
Of Lent, Tertulian and Irenaeus, OF the
second century, furnish proofs that Lent,
in the general sense of fast preceding
Easter, has been known almost from
Apostolic times. From the early part of
the fourth century onward, however, there
are many references to Lent as a period
Of about forty days. Still, in this CEN
tury and the next one also, the durat-.
ion OF Lent varied considerably in.
different churches. Sozomen, writer.
of the fifth century, says that all Africa,
Egypt, Palestine and the Westerns gem.
orally, kept Lent for six weeks; the
Church Of Constantinople and the neigh
boring provinces for seven. The practice
OF the Roman Church and OF most Latins,
however, was to fast six weeks, exclusive
ofSundays, making thirty-six days
At last the Latin Church added the four
days before the first Sunday in Lent to
the fast, thus bringing it into conformity
with the forty-day fast of Moses, Elias
and Christ. This new discipline is recog-
nized by the Council of Meaux, a ID. 846.
SIGNIFICANCE OF ASH WEDNESDAY
Lent was season in which the faithful
begged Gods mercy for themselves, and
were therefore expected to show mercy to
Others. The Imperial laws forbade crimi-
nal processes; the Church recoDciled peni-
tents; the Emperors released prisoners;
masters pardoned their slaves andenemies
OcSaADo IAcuurs IL Was S6dsOu VI
mourning, hence the Church has always
strongly discountenanced festivities of all
kinds during Lent.
Lent begins with Ash Wednesday,
which derives its name from the ceremony
Of administering ashes to the faithful in
token Of penance. The ashes are obtained
! from burning the palms of the previous
Palm Sunday. At first they were admins
istered only to ''prbIie penitents," who
were brought before the Bishop, and then
excluded from the Church, as Adam was
banished from Paradise, with this admon-
ition: DO penance, that thou mayest
have eternal life Gradually the rite
was extended ito all the faithful, and
to-day, in every Catholic church in the
world where there is priest to perform
the ceremony, all the faithful, including
men, women and children. are sprinkled
with ashes, accompanied with the solemn
warning: Remember, man, that thou
art dust. and unto dust thou shalt re-

DRIFTING

Thou art drifting down life's river,
Drifting toward a sea,
From whose shore no bark returnek
'Tis eternity.
At the mouth lie rock tremendous,
Blacker than despair,
Many noble bark, my friend
Has been shipwrecked there.
Hark | the wild white waves are foaming
5 Hungry, fierce and bold,
Ger the shattered vessel dashings
Dreadful icy cold.
But beyond these raging biilows,
Lies happy shore,
Where the saints are redeemed through
Jesus,
Dwell forever more.
Oh. my friend, thy bark shall never
Reach that happy shore,
Till the Lord becomes thy pilot,
He wilIlguide thee DER.
Call him with entreaty urgent,
Call him near thy side,
Then Ger roughest, darkest billoWs
Safely thou shalt guide.
