"Rabboni," which in Hebrew means
Master" Jesus is risen!
The second term of the life of Jesus has
now begun.
He has passed through the frightful valley
of the shadow and emerges in the full light
of Easter morning.
He will remain 20 days on earth, living
among His faithful friends, teaching them,
making things plain to them, just a. OF old.
It 10 very difficult to work out any sort Of
chronology for the events which mark the
life OF Jesus after the Resurrection.
There Is, however, one important fact
which should be stressed. The Gospel makes
1t quite clear that the circumstances of the
life of Jesus after His resurrection were not
the same as those of His previous life among
men.
His bodily presence was not subject to
the ordinary conditions as before; one might
say that His appearance was determined
by an act of will.
When Mary Magdalene in her emotion
ran toward Him, He said, Touch Me Not"
but He told doubling Thomas to put his
hand in the wound in His side. The Gospel
always says that He showed Himself" to
His disciples, and the term which is not
used previously, would seem to indicate that
they would not have seen Him unless He
wished.
Could Appear at viii
Several of the details given about His
appearances" intensity the strangeness of
this second life. He appears in room in
the midst of them, although all the doors
have been closed, and they suppose that
they have seen phantom.
After He appeared to the disciples at
Emmaus, "He vanished out of their sight"
He assumed different aspects. Mary
Magdalene supposed Him to be a gardener;
the disciples on the road to Emmaus did not
recognize Him. He appeared to them "in
another form" Peter himself and the chief
Apostles spoke With Him Cd tho shore of
the Lake of GaliIee and they did not know
Him.
As He was about to disappear from the
sight of His disciples He said to them those
words with which st. Matthew concludes
his Gospel:
10, am with you always, even unto
the end of the world"
In the course of some 80 months, during
His mission on earth, He had patiently pre-
pared these men who were to survive Him,
He had chosen them, taught them educated
them, He had given them the best of
Himself
1t remained for them to bear witness to
the Light which they had received, and they
did not fail.
And so the history of the living God leads
on to that of the mystical body animated
by His Presence, that tremendous reality
engraven upon the heart Of the centuries,
the Church of Jesus Christ.

This patient has a symptom
which we. call intermittent
claudication." Leg pain comes
with exertion and disappears
with rest. Your doctor has vari-
GUS methods for making the
diagnosis of leg-artery disease.
X-rays may show arteriosclerosis.
Oscillometer readings will indi-
cate less than normal arterial
blood flow.
Various Treatments
There are various treatments
that we call upon to help in
crease the collateral circulation
of such legs. Collateral circula-
ton means blood fiow taken over
by other arteries to lessen the
burden Of the diseased larger
arteries.) Here are some hints
on helping your leg arteries.
l. Give up tobacco. 2. Do not
use hot-water bag or heating
pad for "cold feet" Wear socks.
Otherwise you may get a severe
burn or ulcer. 3. Take short
walks a half dozen times a day
to build up your collateral cir
culation. 4. Avoid injuries to
your skin whether of feet or
legs). Report such abrasions to
your doctor. This will prevent
ulcers and chronic infection. s.
Keep your feet clean and be es-
careful not TO injure
them In cutting your toenails.
As for the leg cramps you get
ct night. even though your leg
circulation is healthy, here are
some suggestions that help. Try
a pint Of skinned milk daily for
a few weeks. Also cheese. to build
up your calcium. If these foods
don't help, perhaps your doctor
will prescribe calcium tablets or
quinine. Whatever the COM
plants. your legs deserve more
care than most of US ordinarily
give them.

diately after mass there is the
blowing of whistles, ringing Of
bells. shooting Of fireworks. In
some churches Pinatas are
broken.
Then most people go home to
supper and a party that lasts
until dawn. Traditional dishes
are served: Revoltijo. a salad
including cactus and shrimps and
shile; bean soup: fruit salad:
and anything else the family can
afford.
BY Mexican tradition, Christ
mas Day is a day of ritual and
fun, but not of giving presents.
That is reserved for the coming
of the Three Kings on January
6. Children write the Three Kings
Just as others write Santa Claus.
The new Christmas season be-
gins in November, when stores
put up their Santa Clauses and
trees. and thereafter follows the
American pattern closely.
The trees used in homes and
stores are imported from Canada;
Mexico forbids cutting it's forests
for such purposes. Turkey din
ners are customary after gift
time.
What is the general reaction
to double Christmas? Mexico
seems to enjoy it. Tourists -
there are many in Mexico dur
ing December-seem more i'm
pressed by the old style cere-
monies.
But perhaps the biggest fans OF
the two gift-day system are chill
dren and the merchants. 1t
helps business and it stretches
the holiday period from Novem-
Der into January. thus becoming
the longest such season in holi-
day-happy Mexico. ...
