PAGE EIGHT HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCH 15, 1928. WHAT LENT MEANS. Xt has been said that to each of us comet our opportunity in life; often it Is not recognized at the time, but afterwards, when we look back and see that we wasted or lost our opportunity, how bitter is the thought! But not only Is this the case in this world, for our Lord's parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus teaches us that this will be one of the chief punishments of eternity remorse, the bitterness of self-reproach "Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivest thy good things." (St Luke xvi. 25) the thought, I had my opportunity to save my soul, to win heaven, and I lost it! We are approaching the second Sunday in Lent, this season of grace, a season of opportunity, and therefore of responsibility a re sponsibility which may be eternal and must not be shirked. Lent is indeed a season of abundant oppor tunity, for in Lent all over the world millions of Christians are praying for the conversion of sin ners and the strengthening of the faithful. Not only men, but angels, with loving sympathy, are minis tering on earth and saints praying in heaven for us, and all this makes Lent a special season of great grace. St Paul gives us this warning: "We, then, as workers together with Him, beseech you also that you receive not the grace of God in vain." 2 Cor. vi:l. He does not here merely exhort us to seek grace, but warns us that after we have sought and received there is danger of not using it In Lent, grace encompasses us, and yet it is possible to pass thru it from Ash-Wednesday to Easter Day and be Quite untouched by its power, because our own inclina tions and thoughts of pleasure alone are consulted, because we are not "workers together with God." If we do not begin it with repentance, self-abnegation and sacrifice, if we do not continue to keep it accord ing to reason, principle and con science. Lent is without a purpose to us. Let us, therefore, resolve to pray not only for grace, but also for the will to use the grace we receive and to watch for opportunities of prof iting by it REV. STANLEY MOORE. the following Sunday. The high mass will be followed by Benedic tion of the Blessed Sacrament The attendance at services In lone last Sunday and the previous Sun day was very gratifying to the pas tor, who conducted the services in the home of Mr. Paul O'Meara, of lone.

And as these heroine martyrs died, Rome, coarsened as it was by blood and debauchery, stood in awe and admiration and Rome itself turned thumbs down on Nero and his evil Empress Poppaea.
