Rememberest thou the way
In sandal shoon He came,
Upon that day, that wondrous day
They spoke His holy name2
flushed were the land and sea
As with an angels breath
1t was the road to Calilee
That leads from Nazareth.
The path was sere and dried,
The vines had ceased TO cling,
And on the dusty roadside cried
A bird with broken wing;
To bloom the dead leaves stirred
Beneath His footsteps pressed,
And from His hand the wounded bird
Flew to its waiting nest.
As on His Way He went,
The folds lost sheep to seek,
He healed the arm in palsy bent,
And kissed the leper's cheek.
And from the city's din,
Stoned from the shadows, crept
The nameless one He cleansed from sin
As at His feet she wept.
With corn was Canaan green,
Yet waited there no bed
For Him, the outcast Nazsrens,
On which to lay His head.
The road to Gslilee
Must lead Him. wandering still,
Up TO the Cross on Calvary
That beckoned from the hill
Remembered thou the hill
To which at last He came,
That day of days the world stood still,
No more to be the samef
The grave no more TO be
Victor again DER death
Twas on the road to Galilee
That leads from Nazareth.

CEREMONIALS OF
MAUNDY THURSDAY

Thursday, April II, Is observed by
services in the churches In commemo-
ration of the partaking of the Last
Supper by Christ and His disciples.
Its rightful name, Maundy Thursday,
is chiefly derived from the words Of
the ancient antiphon sung in the
churches and starting with "Manda-
tum novum do vobis." Indeed, the
word Mandatum later came to stand
for the main ceremony of that day
the washing Of the feet of the cate
chumens.
OF the many queer customs featur-
ing this day in ancient times, perhaps
the most important was this washing
of the feet. This practice was preva-
lent in many parts of Europe In the
Middle ages, and there is even men,
ton of its performance In Spain as
early as the Fourth century. Grad
ually, In the monarchistfc countries,
the custom developed into the cere-
mony Of the kings washing the feet
of as many poor men as there were
years of his age. In England the prac-
tice continued in that fashion until
the reign of Queen Elizabeth, who d.
rected that the feet of the poor men
should first be bathed by her servants,
in warm water and sweet herbs.
James II was the last English mon
arch TO perform the ceremony, for his
successor, William of Orange. in
structed his almoners to execute the
duty; and the custom was discontin-
ued In that country In the year 1854.
However, it was carried on until quite
recently In several other European
countries, and perhaps even is, In
few, to this day.
In those times there were some
other ceremonials connected with the
day, one of which was the reconcilia-
tion of the penitents-mainly achieved
by long periods Of prayer. Another
was the conservation OF the chrism,
or baptismal oil. This oil was used
abundantly In Easter week, and all
that was needed for the Sunday was
consecrated on Maundy Thursday,
and by the Fifth century 1t came
about that all the chrism likely to be
needed during the year was conse-
Grated on this day.
One more ceremony of this eventful
Thursday was the celebration of the
Eucharist. This was originally taken
fasting, but later many began to take
it In the evening after meat By the
reissuance of some old laws evening
communion was forbidden, but grad
ually 1t has crept back into favor.
Apart from these major celebra-
tions there were some minor observ-
ances, such as the stripping Of the al
tars after vespers and the silencing
of the church bells from Wednesday
midnight till mathis on Easter day.
Most of these customs associated
with Maundy Thursday have fallen
into the limbo of oblivion, but the re-
calling of them serves as a pleasant
link with those less sophisticated
days.

This story is told in petition filed
in Middlesex Probate Court. through
the girls mother. Mrs Maria Cocas, In
which petition the daughter asks that
her name be legally changed to Evange-

Correspondence OF The Associated Prose.
PARIS. Torpedo mail delivery at
the rate of $50 miles an hour is said to
be practicable by two French engineers,
L. Hirschauer Of the French aeronautic
service and A. Talou of the Southern
Railroad of France,
They believe that urgent mail will
one day be shot around France on
overhead trolleys in small torpedoes
propelled by electric motors.
They estimate that installation would
involve an outlay OF only 10 per cent
of the cost of a railway and that when
traffic reached a volume of five tons
day each way on any line the profit
on the investment would be 100 per
cent.
