changes in the masses in the Catholic
Church, certain portions having been
omitted.
The crucifixes and images from now
until Easter will be enshrouded in pur-

Maundy Thursday-is extremely solemn
and elaborate. The religious exercises
are Of great antiquity, dating back
centuries and centuries. and partalSe OF
the simplicity of olden times
Because the Holy Eucharist, or the
Lords Supper, was instituted on Holy
Thursday, the day is given it's name.
In the celebration OF the mass on that
day a host is consecrated. which is
taken in a solemn procession to re-
pository at a side altar and left there
until the following Saturday. The door
OF the main repository on the main
altar is left open all day Thursday,
Friday and part OF Saturday. This
has a. symbolical meaning.

On Maundy Thursday in ancient
times three masses were said for special
purposes. The first TO reconcile the
penitents, the second for the benedic-
ton of the holy oils. and the third 10

purpose. The nocturnal offices, how
