GREAT DAY IN LANCASHIRE
sermons Sunday" a Gala Occasion In
the Lives of People of Northern
England County.

Sermons Sundays" are state occa-
sions in Lancashire, writes northern
parson In the London Daily Mail No
one who has not been present at one
of them can have any conception Of
what they are. Sermons" are held
annually in most of the large towns
outside of Manchester.
In normal times Of regular employ
ment Sermons Sunday" is the Sunday
when new summer clothes are put on
for the first time. This year, of course,
the majority have had to be content
with making old things do.
The day usually starts with a pro-
cession-Lancashire people love pro-
cessions outside their churches. The
procession is intended partly as q wit
ness to the faith, partly to show the
size Of the Sunday school.
In this procession, which consists Of
from $50 to 1,200 persons, ages range
from three-year-old little toddlers to
men and women of eighty and even
more.
The technical Lancashire term for
the procession is walking"
"Are you walking on SundayP is
probably the most frequent question on
peoples lips the week before sermons !;
and to be prevented from walking" is
almost a tragedy.
81 once knew an old lady of eighty
SIX" writes the parson, "who claimed
to have walked 81 times, for the first
she had been carried as an infant In
arms-and her proudest boast was that
she had never missed SINCE"
Sermons" is q time for renewing
old associations. If there is church
yard 1t becomes a verltable garden, so
much care and affection is bestowed
upon the graves during those few
days, and in many cases the evening
congregations are so large that an ex-
ira service has to be held in the
churchyard.
Other main features of sermons are
