He denies emphatically the as

that not even Moses was permit

Peretz and His High Holy
Day Stories

The greatness of Peretz as a
writer was recognized even be-
fore these celebrations. He has
been called the father of Yiddish
literature. The story, in his life
began on May Is, 1852 in a small
town and ended in Warsaw in
1914, when more than 100000
persons attended the last rites in
his honor.
Peretz was a prolific and YER
satile writer. He was a poet. a
journalist. an essaYist and a dra-
matist. Above all. he is consider
ed a great short-storY writer. In
these short stories. Peretz de-
scribes the sufferings and sor-
rows of Jewish life in the ghetto
with its poverty stricken COM

by sublime spiritual devotion.
His writings had the effect Of

The Great Anomaly

The intense sorrow and suffering of the last acts
in the public life of Our Lord still color the scene
of world removed from those events by some nine
teen hundred years. Christians do not have to con-
jure up feeling of compassion they do not have
to strain to make vivid the events of the Redemp
tion at this time because those events are having
their full effect today
The scourging, the crowning with thorns the
hate of the mob the denial by friends, the bloody
way of the Cross and the horrible reality of the
CrucifiXion were fixed once and for all in time And
yet their effect is everpresent and eternal
Christ died for and because of the sins Of all
men of all times. Only the historian can pinpoint
the events of Holy Week The shocking reality of
Calvary the and its effect the utter betrayal
and the Buying -Back-the Redemption-are hap
pening now just surely they happened then.
There is diminishing of Calvary. The Passion
did not happen once and eyanesce. The events OF
Holy Week are not dependent mans mind or
memory to give them substance. The Passion and
Death of Our Lord always here with us, because
we always there with Him, chief actors in the
driving of the nails.
All mankind fell in Adams fall The general
blight of that transgression was cured on Calvary
Man falls individual too, and his soul withers
from the disease of sin. Each one Of these defecons
was cured Calvary.
The sins we have committed had their effect on
Calvary. The ones we will commit will have their
effect too They will be there in the blows of the
soldiers and in the taunts of the laughing mocking
crowds; in the stnging cuts of the lash and in the
holes the crown of thorns made.
We present at Gogatha through our sins
They force Our Savour'S Blood through his pores
and onto the ground
Ours is sorrow this week that brings Christs
passion very close. We there.

Something New?

We saw an interesting moving picture some
time ago, sort of reel account of the return of
a newy-consecrated Indian Bishop to his native
town in India.
The picture opened with scenes of the crowded
station and the throngs eagerly awaiting the arrival
of the little train Their faces lit up when it finally
pulled in with tall, dgnified man standing on a
little platform on the car, dressed in his Epis
copal robes
The Bishop made short speech from the plat
form and then blessed the people He then de
scended and walked to what was obviously small
official welcoming committee standing in clear
ing in the shade of a scraggly old tree.
There were two people in this group, an elderly
man and woman, who were not dressed in uniforms
denotng any special civic or public office The
Bishop walked directly up to them-and then did
strange thing
Episcopal robes and all he knelt down in the
yellow dust and reverently received the blessing of
these two people-his mother and father
The comments on this particular incident which
we're made at the end of the movie we're interesting
It was something entirely new. No one in this
American audience had ever the like.
Some took it to be ancient Indian practice
that the Bishops family continued to do as Chris
tians Others, holding that the Bishops parents
not Catholics thought that this must be the accepted
native greeting.
There was an air Of mutual surprise, both on
the part of the Indian missionary who was showing
the film and the part of the questioning audi
ence when explanation was asked for the prac-
tce
The missioner was surprised that his audience
should see anything odd in the happening. His lis
eners were startled to find out that the practice is
a universal one or should be, that has been ap-
proved by the Church for centuries
II paradoxca that man from mission
country should have the occasion to enlighten
group of American Catholics on a subject that is
part of our Catholic heritage
