PILGRIMS FROM THE FRONT.

Those who come to Lourdes, the
great shrine of France, are coming as
separate individuals, rather than
members of pilgrimages. The individ-
ual pilgrim is now the pilgrim from
the front, a traveller from the trenches
to the shrine Others are there pray
ing that their dear ones will pass
through the dangers of war uninjured.
The pilgrim to Lourdes finds trained
expert service and gener-
GUS attention. Numerous hospitals
have been set up to care for the
wounded, whose attention has been
turned to the wonderful powers of
Providence and who, in their trouble,
are giving evidence of the new birth
OF religious thought and religious
feeling in the French Republic. The
professions have given place to the
injured soldiers moved from place
to place by attendants. Even the
Government of France in its hour of
trial has given recognition to Lourdes
in providing for the comfort of the
pilgrims who have journeyed to
Lourdes to seek that comfort which
only the power of Heaven can grant.
