MEANING OF LENT Here we are in the middle of Lent and I am well aware, of course, that a large number among, my readers do not attack any particular significance to this. Other Christian people in my-own church and in other communions regard this as a very solemn season. Whatever we may think about Lent, it is only right for me to say that the church has observed this particular season for many centuries. It probably goes back to very early Christian times. It is indeed a curious fact that religious people, not only ‘those subscribing to the Christian faith, but of other religion have made a practice of fasting, and attack great importance to it. I would give by own opinion © on this matter with all diffidence aud respect to the feelings of “others. . Without in any way wishing to comtimes of fasting which do bot appeag! to them. I cannot agree that we should disregard altogether ‘times and séasons’. There is a sense in which ‘evry day ig as good as any other day. Yet“ even the least religious among people. seem to attach a special significance to the first. of January. Indeed: how many people are there wo do not attach some special importance-toe a birthday or some other day in the calendar? If we are to regard’ the New Year as a time when we should take stock of ourselves, and makt New Year resolutions, if we set apart our own birthdays as something to celebrate, I think it is only reasonable that the church should have set aside the few of importance when people should think more than ordinarily about the meaning’ of Good Friday and. Saeter Day. How then, should we peas Lent, \if we should keep it.at all? The trouble is that’so many-people are literal minded. A fast mtans just an abstinance from food, 6r, generally speaking, a ehange to some lighter diei; and they attach some spiritual merit to what is; after all, only a physical observance. On the other hand, I do think it is a good idea for all of us at this season of the year to practice tle more thought-to the things that really matter. 7 os Self—denial is not very “popular these days, and there is no need at all for me to convince my readers not to wear hair shirts, or to make themselves ill with fasting. The whole jarzon of the day is in favor of ‘selfexpression.’ Do not deny your instinets, or you will suffer from in‘hibitions, or complexes or something of the sort, so say our scientists. I think most of us would be all the better for a little self discipline and perhaps the chief use of the Lenten season will be to remind us of that. Self—denial has its virtues if it is not made an object in itself but a means to an end. To stop ourselves eating or drinking certain things, to forego ordinary pleasures, may be all very well in their way. abhores a vacuum and the whole object of fasting is to set our minds on ing to the pictures, nd decide during Lent to go only once a week inSte: d of twice, I am sure it will do you no ‘harm.
