lem pilgrimage at the same season was
not an unnecessary preparedness.
Religious services were almost con-
tinuous day and night through Lent,
all mosques and Christian churches be-
ing open to the worshipers. The fast
of Lent is rigidly observed by the
Greek, Russian, Armenian, Syriac and
Coptic sects. Their diet Is limited to
bread, vegetables, fruit and vegetable
oils, and on special days, only q little
fish is allowed. The Catholic commu-
nifty abstains from animal flesh diet,
but not from eggs butter and milk.
Land Hurt by the War.
This season is also important In
commercial sense. The manufacture
of all kinds Of relics and souvenirs
occupies many Of the citizens of Jeru-
salem and Bethlehem during the rest
of the year. These are bought by the
pilgrims in great quantities. not only
for themselves, but also for those at
home who could not make the pilgrim-
age. These devotees, who, as rule,
live In the Holy Land from Christmas
to Easter, visiting all its sacred shrines
and hallowed cities, bring much money
into the country, also merchandise for
sale, hence the failure of the pilgrim
visitors since the beginning of the de-
vastating European war has caused
unmitigated suffering In Palestine.
Early in the morning of Palm Sun
day the patriarchs of the above men
toned Christian sects give personally
genuine date-palm branch to any per-
son who will come forward to the Off
ciating hierarch and accept 1t. This

Cathedral of the Holy Sepulcher in
celebration Of the triumphal entry Of
the Savior into Jerusalem.

His word he kept true.
The very last word he wrote to me
Was '.I'll soon be home to you,
