M., April 16 (Copyright),—In four counties of New Mexico and the eastern part of Ari- zona scores of members of Los Her- manos Penitentes (the Penigent Broth- ers) are picking cactus spines from their own and each other's backs to- day. Other members who played stellar roles in the crucifixion cere- monies of the order on Good Friday are lying in improvised tents terribly exhausted Although great secrecy usually is Imposed concerning the observation of the Penitente celebration, the bars were let down somewhat this year. One of the ceremoniala took place only @ short distance from this place and watched by a party of #e- lected sightseers from here. The largest and most important of the colonies of the sect gathers an- nually at the eastern seasion in a cleft in the San Dias Mountains, south of Albuquerque.

However, the aged were not excluded from the” whipping ceremonies. If one had lost’ his or her life because of the fanati- cal practices he would have been cofi- sidered a fortunate brother who “had been called above, washed of his sins.” Arrived at the chosen spot, indi- cated weeks previously by the priests. and chieftafhs, the penitents estab ished their rude camps. Twelve brethren were selected to erect thé cross, Throughout ‘Thursday night all Prostrated themselves in prayer,’ chanting in unison. On a peak over- looking the valley was stationed lookout, who, as the warning streaks of red signalled the break of daww on Friday, raised his voice in a low? cry warning the praying brethren their hour was approaching. Immediately cactus whips were passed out, several to each family. The male members were stripped to the waist. Only thin garments were’ permitted on the others, ‘The worshippers ranged themselves in a semi-circle, Aguin the watcher on the peak raised his voice. Day had arrived. Then the members be- zan lashing each other across the shoulders and back with a frenzy which would have quickly overcome lens fanatical persons. Occasionally one fell, unable momentarily to en- dure the torture. Progress toward the hillside where the cross had been placed wag slow, due to the frenzy with whic they whipped each other. Before the cere- mony of binding the chosen brother to’ the cross was completed the number of weeping, praying penitents had been reduced to a few sturdy believ- ers, At the cross, the victim, clad only in a loin cloth, called on his hrethren to grant him the honor of the cruct- fixion, symbolic of the punishment pt the Master, Rude thongs and creepers grown on the mountain side were employed in lushing wrists and ankles to the roughly hewn cross, About him the brethren remained grouped, continuing their devotions. Occasionally one fell exhuusted only to be replaced by an- other who had recovered from earlier experiences, As the sun sank toward the west- ern horizon the frantic movements slowed and finally stopped, so that at dark profound silence replaced the pandemonium of the day. All through the hours of the cere- mony the participants ignored thetr Physical wants. Neither food nor water passed their lps. The crucified brother was cut down. from his cross at dark and left lying on the sand to recover as best he might. Through the night and to-day the family groups worked laboriously ex- tracting the cactus spines from each other's bodies. Intense agony ac- companied this process, and many were reported in a somewhat serious condition. However, so far as could be learned, there were no fatalities at this year’s devotions, R ywooD BROUN Drawn by Herb Roth. chef Character Is Given a Newspaper by the Men and Women Who Write It =>|VERY ONE who knows books and plays and thinks about things in general, knows Heywood Broun, dramatic critic of THE WORLD and of that daily pot- pourri of literary tid-bits assembled broadly inclusive heading, “It Seems to Me.”* Mr. under the Broun has been called one of the most brilliant writers in America. clear thinking: His pen jabs you into his humor makes you glad; his cheerfulness helps you to get the day's work done; he is always stimulating, always understanding, always instructive and always inter- esting.
