The feast opened on Ash Wednesday with the blessing of the ashes and the distribution of the | same at the morning mass and at the | evening services. | Most Rev. Archbishop Riordan in his| letter concerning regulations for Lon(; | says: | The Paschal time extends from the first Sun- day of Lent until Trinity Sunday, inclusive, dur- ing which time all Catholics who bave attained | | the proper age are bound to receive holy com- | monfon, worthily. To afford the faithful opportunities of gain- ing the grades of the Lenten season, it hereby ordered that in eddition to the usual Sunday devotions, Lenten exercises will be | held on two evenings of each week in all the | churches of the archdiocese to which are at-| tached resident pastors. On ome of the evenings | en instruction s to be given, and on the other | the stations of the cross, and permission is | bereby given for bemediciion of the blessed sacrament on both evenings. On Good Friday | | the devotion of the way of the cross shall be | twice in all parish churches, once during the | and then agsin ia the .evening. As the service In the afternoon is for children, it sbould not begin before 3:30 o'clock, thus giv: | ing time to reach-the church after the closing of | the_schools The exercises on Good Friday afternoon shall comsist of the stations of the cross, with the singing in English of a verse of the Stabat | | Mater and short sermon relating to the passion | and the death of our Lord. and the reading of the prayer to the five wounds. 1 strongly | recommend that all who have pestoral echarge | of souls. tbat whercver possible the children be brought to their respective parish churches | on every Friday afternoon during the Lenten season for the devotion of the way of the | cross and s sbort sermon relating to the passion | of our Lord. Woenever this is done permission is given to have benediction of the blessed | sacrament at the sfternoon services, as well at the evening services, with the ‘exception, course, of G of 5 Friday. The faithful are reminded that besides the obligation of fasting imposed by the church, the season of Lent should be manner a time for earmest prayer of SOrrow for sin, of abstention of amuseménts, which, uot sinful in themselves, are permitted during other portions of the year, and of generous almsgiving to the poor. To comply with the decree of the third plenary council of Baltimore, a collection will be taken at all the masses and vespers for the wmission lm? the Indians and b At St. Mary's Cathedral during Lent week-day masses will be at 6, 7 and 9 o'clock. On Wednesday evening there will be rosary and benédiction, | with a course of conferences on the principal troths of the Christian faith. | On Fridays the way of the cross, bene- | diction and a course of sermons on the duties and virtu of Christian life. | Sunday evenings Rev. J. W. Sullivan, | week. |be a more beautiful | ings, every Wednesday at 2.p. m. in a very speclal® tion. During Lent at St. Brigid's Church Rev. Father John E. Cottle, pastor, there will be mass at 6:30 and 9 o'clock on week days and on Friday after- noons there will bhe the way of the cross and benedictlon of the blessed sacrament. Commencing this evening Rev. M. J. Handley, C. S. P.. will open a mis- sion for non-Catholics in St. Agnes' Church, which is to continue for a At the door of the church there will be maintalned a box, into which any one may drop written questions he desires answered relative to church doctrines and so forth. Each evening the service will close with the benedic- tion of the blessed sacrament. The walls of the new Mission Do- ores’ Church have been razed, pre- paratory to rebuilding a new edifice. Miss Margaret Riley, a graduate of the Presentation Convent of this city, received the white veil of the Presenta- tion nuns last Monday. A great deal of work has been done in St. Joseph's Parish of late. The cliurch, of which Rev. Father Mulligan is the rector, is being finished interior- fly and there is every evidence at this| time that when it is finished it will church'than was the old one. The schools connected with the church are nearly completed, and, as Rev. Father Mulligan said last week, “when all is completed the build- ing will be better and more up to date than were the old ones. The gardens are being put in order and the recrea- tion grounds laid out. - Taking it all in all, in a short time St. Joseph's Parish church and schools will be bet- ter than they ever were.” The congre- gation of the church is increasing as the people are returning to the parish, yet there are many who come from a long distance to attend mass. A recent census shows that one-twentieth of | the families that were forced out have returned, back. and many more are coming The school has an attendance of the penitential season of Lent and in all the churches the Lenten regulations wlill be strictly observed. At St. Stephen’s Church Rev. Cecil Marrack explains the true fast as fol- lows: “First, spiritually, by real sor- row for sin and struggle against it; second. mentally, by abandoning light reading and taking God's word and books that may help to devotion; third, socially, by entirely withdrawing from ordinary amusements and gayeties, and fourth, bodily, by real self-denial in meat and drink. This on the negative side will give clear sense of sin and truer penitence: a warmer love for the Master, who dled to save us; a life nearer to God. On the positive side: First, be more honest in your prayers, personal and public; second, be faithful in preparing for holy communion. The way and means thereto is to examine your lives and conversations by the rule of God's commandments and be- cause it Is requisite that no man should come to holy communion but with a full trust in God's mercy and with quiet conscience; therefore If there be any of you who by this means cannot quiet his conscience herein, but requireth further com- fort or counsel, let him come to me or dome other minister of God's word and open his brief, that he may receive such goodly counsel and advice as ma tend to the quieting of his conscienc and the removing of all scruples and doubtfulness. (The rector may be seen in the chapel on Saturday afternoons during Lent from 2 to 3 o'clock.) Let your depending spiritual experience ex- press itself in work. Become an active member of one of the church societies and, work for Christ and your fellow men.” One of the results of the recent pre- Lenten mission held in this church has been the signing of more than seventy attendance pledges. Another is the starting. of a confirmation class. The question box placed in the church at the opening.of the missfon will be retained in peosition and the rector will endeavor to answer ques- tions at the evening service on the first Sunday in the month. Last Tuesday a supper was served in the parish house of St. Stephen's to the active members of the various so- cleties of the churc During Lent Bishop Nichols will preach at the united services on Wed- | nesday evening fn St. Paul's Chirch in | California street. near Fillmore.

Last Sunday the pastor preached at morning and evening Service. Mrs.| Willlam Fee was the leader at the Epworth League meeting in the even- | ing, when the subject for discussion was “Southern Educational Work—The | Blessings of Helpfulness.” The official board of Wesley Church has appointed Willlam Abbott, J.

There are to be patriotic selections by the choir and by a male quartet and 1short addresses and the ladies will serve refreshments. The choir is arranging for another sacred concert during the lat- ter part of the month. Last week there was a meeting of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society in the church par- | lors, when there was another study of | the “Islands of the Pacific.” These are | a very attractive feature of these meet- | ings. The young people of this church held service last Sunday at the Ingle- side Camp. Up to last Monday this| church had raised $3575 for the re- habilitation fund. 3 On rehabilitation Sunday the congre- | gatlon of Grace Church raised $4052. In view of this and otner large contribu- tions on that day, Rev. George A. Hough announced to his congreggtion that “God has not deserted us nor is | Methodism vet dead In San Francisco,” | Last Thursday evening the Whites of this church gave a valentine party to | the Reds, which was well attended by the young people of the chureh. At the morning service in the Cali- fornia street M. E. Church last Sunday | Rey. H. E. Milne, the pastor, preached | a very interesting sermon on “Complet- | ing the Work of Lincoln.” The Men's | | Club of thnis church is: growing in| numbers every month and it is also| growing in power for good. The prayer ! | meetings every Wednesday evening are | well attended. | Today after the sermon there will be | communion service in the Hamilton | Church at Waller and Belvedere | streets, Rev. G. Avery Reeder pastor. | During the last two weeks there has| been a remarkable increase at the at- tendance at the prayer meetings in this church. The pastor contemplates a serles of revival meetings immediate- Iy after Kaster. The contributions on | | rehabilitation Sunday amounted to $450. The pastor expects that the amount will be increased to $500 or| more. | Out in Richmond Church Rev. E. D.| Raley, the pastor, expected to raise]| $1000 on rehabilitation Sunday and at| the close of the service he discovered | that the contributions amounted to| $1015. At the service last Sunday the pastor spoke on the life of Lincoln. The | Epworth Guard will meet in the| church on the morifing of February 22 for the purpose of starting on a trip to the top of Mount Tamalpais. It will| {be a genuine climb to the mountain| top. The Men’s Club of the church will | observe Washington's birthday by a| reception to the ladies of the congre- gation. This will be followed by a banquet. The Sunday-school of this church has decided to have a special | programme on Easter Sunday.

At the| gate the twenty members of the league | were met by an employe of the camp, | and by the light of a lantern they were | escorted to the office of Commander | Wallenberg, who received them and| thanked them for the thoughtfulness they had for the old people. They were then conducted to the hall, which was brilllantly illuminated and decorated with the stars and stripes. There was a good representation of the 600 in the camp. A fine programme was pre- sented and loudly applauded, every one who took part being encored. The closing number was ‘America,’ in| which all joined. At the close the com- mander invited us to the dining-room, where a light lunch and chocolate was served, which was a surprie to us.
