14 BISHOP ISSUES LENTEN RULES Priosls of Harrisburg Diocese Read Regulations to Congregations The following Lenten rules for the guidance of Catholics in the Harris burg Diocese have been issued by Bishop McDevitt: 1. Every day in Lent, except Sun day, is a fast day, on which only one full meal is allowed. A relaxation of this law permits, in the morning, a cup of tea, coffee, or chocolate and two ounces of bread, and, in the evening, a partial meal not exceed ing eight ounces. 2. The full meal on a fast day is taken usually at midday. For a suf ficient reason, it may be taken in the evening, and the partial meal at noon. 3. By speclal dispensation, flesh meat is allowed to everybody at all the meals on Sundays and at the principal meal on Mondays, Tues days, Thursdays and Saturdays, ex cept Ember Saturday (23 February) and the forenoon of Holy Saturday. 4. Meat is forbidden on all Wed nesdays, Fridays, Ember Saturday (23 February) and the forenoon of Holy Saturday. 5. Eggs, butter, cheese and milk are allowed every day. 6. The use of lard and drippings Is permitted in preparing foods. 7. On the day when meat 1s al lowed, fish, oysters and other sea food may be taken with the meat. 8. The following persons are ex empted from the Lenten fast: a. Those who are under twenty one years of age. b. Those who are over fifty-nine i years of age. c. Those who are engaged in hard .labor or duties which exhaust their physical strength. d. Those who are sickly or are convalescing after a serious illness. e. Those who are bearing or nursing infants. !>. All those persons just mention ed may take three meals a day and may eat meat as often as they wish on all days of Lent, except Wednes days, Fridays, Ember Saturday (23 February) and the forenoon of Holy Saturday. 10. Workingmen and their fam ilies have a further dispensation by which they may eat meat on any day of Lent, except Fridays, Ash Wednesday, and the forenoon of Holy Saturday. According to this dispensation, those members of the family who are bound to fast may eat meat only once a day on the days it is allowed. The other members of the family who are exempt from the fast may pat meat as often as they wish on the days it is allowed. While the Church emphasizes bod ily penance during the season of Lent, she wisely relaxes, when ad visable, the severity of the fast and abstinence. The relaxation, however, does not relieve anyone from the modification of the spirit, without which there can be no salvation. The self-denial which everybody must practice calls for the control of the senses, the restraint of the appetites, and a daily struggle against vicious inclinations. It implies, furthermore, an earnest effort to carry out what is asked of Almighty God in the prayer, "to overcome sensuality by modification, avarice by almsgiving, anger by meekness, and tepidity by devotion. In addition to the practice of this necessary penance, the faithful are urged to observe the following rec ommendations: 1. To attend the Lenten devo tions. 2. To hear Mass every day. 3. To recite the Rosary every night, as a family devotion. 4. To keep from amusements that ill become a season of penance. 5. To go frequently to Confes sion and Communion. ti. To give alms, especially on behalf of the orphans and the dio cese. The blessing of a Lent passed ac cording to God's will are greater fervor in prayer; greater purity of life; greater fidelity in the observ ance of God's laws; greater confi dence in turning to God, in deep hu mility and in full recognition of His overruling Providence, to invoke His benediction upon ourselves as well as upon all mankind, especially in these momentous days when the thought and energies of the nation are en gaged in the great world conflict. Imparting to you and your people an affectionate blessing, I am. Sincerely in Christ, PHILIP McDEVITT, Bishop. John C. Thompson, Chancellor. Earl Reading, British Ambassador, in U. S. An Atlantic Port, Feb. 11.
