Observing of Lent

The great period of fasting, Lent,
begins on Ash Wednesday, 40 days
before Easter Sunday, not counting
Sundays. Lent was originally a
period of only 40 hours. 1t was
later increased to 80 days. Pope
Gregory added Ash Wednesday to-
gether with the remainder of that
week.
The last seven days of Lent con
stitute Holy Week, starting with
Palm Sunday. Passion Week pre-
cedes Holy Week. Mohammedans
honor Good Friday as the birth of
Adam.
Lent had its origin in a desire
to commemorate our Lords 40 days
of fasting in the wilderness, and His
temptation by Satan.
While our Lord did not command
fasting, His teachings anticipate
such an exercise of the soul on fit
ting DAYS.

The American Legion Auxiliary
will meet at Mrs. Paul Gerard's
home March s..
Women of 81 other organizations
joined with the American Legion
Auxiliary in support of the Amer
lean Legion's universal training
plan at the Women's Patriotic Con-
ference on National Defense, held
recently in Washington, D. C.
The conference, attended by del
egates from 80 women's organiza-
tions representing more than 1,000,-
900 members, heard John Stelle,
national commander of the Legion,
explain the Legion plan, and then
adopted a resolution pledging sup
port.
The plan, now before Congress,
calls for one years training for
all young men at high school grad
uating age, four months basic train
ing with the armed forces and
eight months advanced training in
college, industry, national guard or
reserve organizations.
The resolution adopted by the
conference said, in part:
"The plan of application as pro-
posed by such legislation is Amer
lean in principle. 1t will provide
the nation with a trained reserve
for security and will integrate uni
versal training with academic edu-

The Locomotives came through
in the last minute, Monday night
to knock Carbon out of second

third licking the Laurel squad has
handed the Coyotes this season.
The game was hard fought all
the way, with the score tied eight
times. With five minutes left, Car

Thou Art Dust and to
Dust Thou Shall Return

The ancient ceremony of the i'm
position of ashes, symbolizing peni-
tence, will be observed March 6,
Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent
in our modern observance.
In this ceremony the faithful ap-
proach the altar and the priest dips
his thumb in blessed ashes and
marks the Sign of the Cross on the
brow, saying, "Memento, homo, quia
pulvis es ct in pulverem reverteris."
(Remember, man, that thou art dust
and to dust thou shall return.) The
ashes used in this ceremony are
obtained by burning the remains of
palms which we're blessed last year
on Palm Sunday.
