Wednesday, known among the lit-!
urglcal churches as Ashe Wednes
layT will mark tho beginning of the
most solemn season in the Chris
tian calendar, known as Lent. For
40 days, until the season shall end
with ths feast of the resurrection,
prayers will be eald dally in sanctu
aries throughout ths Christian
world and ths hearts and mind of
men and -women will be tnrned to
ward ths suffering of Jesus Chris'
through whose vicarious atonement
?.he world lis to be brought back to
fellowship with ths Father. During
ths Lenten season there will b'
many fast days, and throughout the
?rotirs period salf-denlai will be the
dominant thought In ths minds of
those who prscttes s strict obSer
Nanca. Following the baptism of
Jesus Christ he went up Into the
vildernMs and prayed and fasted
41 days and nights. Thsrs the
bangs of hunger attacked Him and

followers of the lowly Nasarlne* Ob
serve once . a year a period of self
denial, fasting and prayer known ??
Lent. During that period which ha?
hpatt sanctified to Wttf by Its w+rlf*
Observance by Christian leaders fo'
ry years, those Who enter Into
sptrlt of lt? keeping refrain from
afl unseemly levity and turn their
attention a toward the tiling* worth
