GENUFLECT PROPERLY.

Upon entering a Catholic church
make a genuhection TO the Blessed
Sacrament. IL is rather remarkable
how few Catholics perform this act of
religion properly. To genuhect does
not mean to kneel, nor is II exactly a
courtesy. sort OF a bob down and
up. The rule for making a genufiec-
ton is the same for priest and people,
for young and old of both sexes,
namely to bend the right knee until
II touches the ground. In genufect-
ing a person should preserve the up
per part of the body in a rather erect
position, bending the knee and aris-
ing with ease and gracefulness. To
genuflect is an act OF worship and
should be performed slowly. with rev.
erenee and recollection. To bend the
knee TO the tabernacle is TO adore
Jesus Christ In the holy Eucharist
II is the outward bodily expression OF
the faith that is in the soul.
