without spiritual delight. Even the
directions for the service-'here the
priest uplifts his hands"-add to the
interior pleasure which those words,
so deeply significant, give us. And
note, also, that not only in the sonor-
GUS Latin are these words soul-satisfy-
ing and inspiring, but in the English,
too, they seem almost equally musical
and compelling.
Lift up your hearts!
We lift them up to the Lord"
What a glorious sentiment! What
a rally-cry to the Christian SOUL Lift
up your heart!" What splendid SYM
bolism-the priest lifts up his hands;
he cries: Lift up your hearts," And
we answer: 1--WE lift them up to the
Lord" We lift our hearts up for joy
of the Divine Mystery of the Mass;
strong with the graces poured out to
us from the Altar; grateful for the
blessings given us.
Lift up your hearts!
We lift them up to the Lord"
No words in all the Prayer Book say
so much or mean so much to us as
these. They rouse our spirit as with
an angels clarion while the altar can
dies CLEAN softly through the yelling
incense, while the organ notes are low
and sweet They herald the great
Mystery of the Blessed Sacrament so
soon to be enacted before our very
eyes. And they ring on in the heart
and long AFTER they echo purely and
inspiringly when, far from the shelter
of altar and sanctuary, the world buff
fets and bruises, and the spirit faints
and droops in the dark. They come
then a challenge and rally-call,

What are the most beautiful words
in the Prayer Book? Have you any
favorite passage in the Prayers at
Mass to which you always come with
feeling of pleasure, which your eve,
following the holy service, greets al
ways with new delight? There are
words and passages in the Prayer
Book that are of the very essence of
musical and meaningful language For
our part, writes Charles Phillips in
THE Monitor" never do we come to
those audible prayers which follow the

how alternately she looked pleased at

He lifted the lid of a battered money
box. How scarce, how pitifully few,
had been the coins that it had ever
contained. Tonight he could stuff it

But what use was a position that
brought only wealth? Bitter sorrow
rose in his heart and keen resentment
swept away the dull anguish of the
past months. Why had God not taken
| the boy and left Mary? He could have
spared the child.
He lifted out at length the box in
which she had placed carefully the lit
tie figures, and took them out one by
one, his bitterness growing and swell

his work. Let the boy take what de-
| light or comfort he might in the Crib.
He lifted the statues from the little
altar, casting fleeting glance as he
did so at the picture of the Madonna
and Child that hung above it. Then
he went downstairs to the kitchen and
surprised Maria in tears.
"Straw, is it," she asked. What
! kind of straw" hastily turning away
and wiping her eyes.
For the Crib he said.
She got some in which the toys had
been packed and gave it to him.

That was ALL The words danced up
and down as he read. He looked at
the Crib, and the figures were blurred;
he glanced unseeingly at the Madonna.
