New York, March 1 .Today, Asn
Wednesday, marks the beginning: or
Lent, when social gaTties give place
to a season of fasting and prayer ror
forty days. . Lent had its prefiguring
in the forty days of temptation of
Christ in the wilderness, as well as
In the fasts of Moses and Ellas. It
is a season of great antiquity
Ash Wednesday 1b so called because
In the Roman Catholic church It be
gins with the solemn .ceremony that
has1 given the day its name. After a
supplicatory s;rvlce, the devout ap
proach the altar rail and the priest
places ashes on the head of each, re
citing in Latin, "Remember, man, that
thou art dist, and shalt return to
dust." The aahes are customarily ob
tained by burning thr palms of the
previous year.
The Lenten season is strictly ob
bcivcu in ui u.(jiocopai uuu uiiiet' m
uallstlc churches as well as In the
Roman Catholic church. Special ser
vices ar- designated for Ash Wednes
day, Holy Week, Good Friday, Palm
Sunday, and ending with the grand
triumphant service on Easter Sunday.
Lent Is also the season of the con
firmation classes, when those wno

visitation of the bishop. It is also
a season of giving, especially in the

cluding 'Easter Day, the attendance
usually exceeds 50,000, the largest
number,, by fap, attending any Ameri

The unusually large attendance Is at
tributed to the extraordinarily suc

Poising on Nothing.
, Away up in the air, far beyond the
mountain tops, the great condors will
hang poised as motionless as If perch
ed on solid rock. True, their wlnfra
are outstretched, but even ' through
glasses not the slightest motion is per
ceptible. They remain In this position
for many minutes, sometimes for an
hour, making a careful scrutiny of ev
erything below them In their search
for prey. Then, with a slight tilting
of the wings, they flap slowly away,
or, having found what they were seek
ing, dart like a bullet toward It. The
eagle, hawk and other species have
this same faculty of poising apparent
ly on nothing. ,
