Yesterday Lenten season opened

The season of Lent began YES
terday-Ash WedneSday-t0 con-
tinue for a period of forty days.
The following is an explanation OF
the word Lent as it applies to
the present period kept by the
Catholics and Episeopalians:
Lent, in its literal genealogical
meaning signifies only the spring
time. Its use in connection with
religious celebration is simply CO..
incidental. The forty-six days
prior TO and including Easter
Sunday are observed by COM
munieants of the Catholic and
Episcopal churches as days of
penanee, when the faithful mind
should devout IL review the pc
euliarities of the Christ life.
The Lenten season is observed
as concentrating the time of
Christ's forty days fast in the
mountains, although historically,
Christ did not make his fast at a
corresponding season OF the year.
As Easter Sunday is a day of pc
euliar saeredneSs, and as it was
the browning event in the story of /
Christ s life, it is therefore made
the climax of the Lenten season.
and the forty days are numbered |
back from the Eastertide. As |
Easter IS always observed the first /
Sunday following the first full |
moon after the vernal equinox. |
and may come at any time be-
tween March % and April %, the
date Of Ash Wednesday and the
Lenten season undergoes a cor
variation
Instead of forty days, there are
iorty-six between Ash Wednes-
lay, the first day of Lent and
Easter Sunday, the last day. The !
TX Sundays between these days,
Easter Sunday, are not
ounted as days of Lent, and no f
affecting diet are en-
oreed on these six Sundays.
Ash Wednesday is so called be-
ause in the Catholic church on !
nat day the ashes of the palm
sed on the Palm Sunday of the {
reeeding year, and burned a few I;
ays prior to Ash Wednesday. are i
essed and distributed to the

Mackensen Almost Within
Smelling Distance Of Forts.
Russian Diversion.
RUMANIAN CAPITAL LOST
Invaders 0verrunning Com-
try Without Serious Re-
SiStance.

London, Dec. 1.-The forces of
Field Marshal Won Mackensen are al
most within Smelling distance Of the
southern forts which protect BUcha-
rest the capital of Rumania. Driving
along the railroad leading north from
Giurglu, Won Mackensen has captur-
ed the town Of Tzomano, 10 miles
south of Bucharest, and at last ac--
counts was still making progress to-
wards his objective.
Meanwhile the army of Gen Won
Falkenhayn is keeping up its pressure
against the Rumanians west and north
west of the capital, in the center, bay.
ing forced the Rumanians to fall back
to Glavatziotzu, IS miles from Bucha-
rest, and farther north having cap
tured the town Campulung, thus OPP
ening the way for the unhindered ad-
vance of additional troops of the CEN
trail powers through the Torzburg
pass INTO WallaChla.
The offensive begun by the Rus
slams in the region of Kirlibaba appar-
emily is not impeding TO any extent
the Teutonic inroads into Rumanian.
Additional gains are conceded 10 the
Russians in this region, but again il is
asserted that they have been dearly
paid for in casualties. The Ruma-
mans in the north and northwest
fronts have made progress in the Blu
Ecu and PrahOva valleys.
In none of the other theaterS has
there been any fighting of great in
tensity, so far as the official reports
show. The big guns of the belIiger-
ents on the front in France and Bel
GUM are active at several points.

Careering madly through the fields,
every hair of his coat ablaze, a goat
the other night applied the torch to
fields and buildings, leaving in his
wake fiery trail that brought volun-
teer fire fighters out in force at Bow
ling Green. Twenty-Five acres of,
grass, two large barns and fencing
were ignited, Then the animal, wear
led by his headlong flight and suffer-
ing from the flames that were rapidly
consuming him, keeled over in the
midst of the confagration he had
started and died. How it caught on
fire is a mystery.
