Frustrated on the ground were sprin-
killed. with ashes. Arising from the
earth, with hearts that grieved for past
errors, they listened with all humility
to a solemn exhortation from the
bishop, who told them that. as Adam
and Eve had been driven from Paradise
SO. at least for time, they would be
excluded from the spiritual paradise
of the church. AS they turned to walk
away they heard the chant of the
clergy-"Remember, man, that thou art
dust, and unto dust thou shalt return.
Do penance that you may have eternal
life"
1t is said that in the course of time
friends and relatives joined the peni-
tents in receiving the ashes, and finally
about the thirteenth century the Gus
tom was considered universal. The
ashes used on Ash Wednesday are OBJ
tanned by burning the palms which
adorned the altar on the Palm Sunday
of the preceding year. This is a re-
hinder that only he may carry the
palm of victory who by prayer and
modification dies to himself that he
may live with God.

Ash Wednesday, Coming During Next Week,
Marks the Beginning of Lent.

Throughout the Roman Catholic and
Protestant Episcopal worlds next We'd
nesday, known as Ash Wednesday,
marks the beginning of Lent, called
from the Anglo-Saxon word lent,
meaning Spring fast" 1t is the forty
days fast, a season of recollection and
penance, in preparation for the great
est of all feasts in the church-namely.
Easter. 1t was Instituted at the very
dawn of Christianity, when Christ Him
self sanctified it by His fast of forty
days and nights in the desert.
= According to the teachings of the
church, Lent is a time for reflection, for
sober solemn thought as to the why and
wherefore of our existence time
when each should ask as to what use

they are making of their lives-and re-
call the words of Christ Himself when
He said: What shall it profit man
if he gain the whole world and suffer
the loss of his soul"
On Ash Wednesday the use of ashes
as a symbol of humiliation goes back
TO long-forgotten years, and even the
blessing of the ashes, as practiced in
the church today, it is pointed out, is
ages old. The custom of marking the
foreheads of the people on Ash Wednes-
day was born of the humility and also
of the sympathy of the friends and
relatives of the public penitents who
in past centuries, having confessed
their sins, were obliged to appear at
the church door on Ash Wednesday and
request the bishop to give them the
canonical punishment. They were
clothedN In sackcloth and while lying
