SAMUEL W.PuransJlD flHBi THE MASTER'S MONUMENT. Texts: "Do this In remeinbranra of ma." Luke xxti, 19. "TIM h« cwua."—l Cor. xl. K. The pussover week to tho undent Jews wafc a celebration like a comblna tlon of our Thanksgiving and Fourth of July, the foVmer In that It was a great national feast, the latter In tlmt It celebrated the emancipation of Is rael. It was unlike our festivals In thut it wus profoundly religious, which can hnrdly by any sense of exaggera tion Ih> said of the modern celebratlou of the two American holidays. The Passover was a time of family re unions. I do not know whether the master and disciples had ever cele brated It together before or not, but at this last one he earnestly desired to lie present with them. The first day of the feast of unleavened bread began with sunset of Wednesday and ended with sunset of Thursday. All leaven was destroyed In every house. Tho feast consisted of a lamb slain by a priest In the court of the temple at a prescribed hour and was cooked by roasting. With It also for food were unleavened bread, bitter herbs, wine and a sweet fruit jam. The (Usciples gathered with their Lord in the secoml story of n little house in the holy city. Tragic things occurred at that supper —the dispute of the twelve which should be greatest, the Master washing their feet, the awful announcement that one of them should betray htm and the departure of Judas. "This I* M/ Bidy." There is no one thing that so pro claims the true unity of Christ's church on earth as this Lord's t:rtile. Around it all disciples are one in heart. It W observed In all lands by nil churches in many different forms. Some dis ciples strive to preserve the original forms, recline on couches. lake t!ie bread and wine in connection with a simple meal of lamb. Some, sitting in the pew. take the bread and wiue from officers of the church Some go for ward and. kneeling, take it from haml of priest or minister Some use wine, some unfermouted grape juice. 8om» use a single cup. some individual cups. Some others—a few—omit Ihe bread and wine altogether and count every eating of bread and drinking of wine an occasion of calling to remembrance the master and thinking of him as their guest. Some feel that they partake of but symbols, others that it Is trans formed Into the very tlesh and blood of their Lord. But among all is tho feeling of loyalty and love: whether the memorial is simple or elaborate. It is done in his name. And as men cat of the whentlleld and its strength en ters into their bone, the garden and the strength of the vegetables enters their tlesh. or the herd of the field and Its streugth enters into their blood, these many disciples feed ou their Ix»rd and receive spiritual strength. An Enduring Monument. Hundreds of thousands of persons were iu tho city that night to celebrate the memorial of the passover. which had occurred nearly 1.500 years before. Right outside the house under their window the disciples could hear the voices and footsteps hurrying by un conscious of the fact that the worlds Redeemer was within and that the door posts of the world would soon he sprinkled with his saving blood. llow often is God near and the throng know- It not! "This do In remembrance of m{>." What a simple request. That U why we give keepsakes and parting gifts; that Is the why of photograph al bums. to preserve in the hearts of lov ed ones faces and scenes that might grow dim. If they had built a monu ment like Washington's how far we would have traveled, those of us who could afford to. to see it. But some day sun and rain and frost would de stroy it Had he ordered us to bulkl a mighty cathedral how we would send our contributions that somewhere, pos sibly in the holy city, there might be a central temple over which the cross on which he hung might stand through out the ages. Hut the cathedral might pass into hands profaue. impious and scoffing, or blasphemous war might level its walls. "Till He Comal" So the twelve partook of the last supper, scarcely conscious that they were laying the corner stone of the greatest memorial that the world has ever seeu. And it has stood through the ages, towering over the wrecks of time. Wherever on this earth the church of Jesus has planted her faith and breathed his name she celebrates the solemn ceremony In which bread and wine are consecrated and partaken of in memory of the founder of this great religiou. As on each Sunday the sunlight travels round the world it gleams on the uplifted paten and chalice. Sometimes In magnificent cathedral with swelling organ incense and candle, sometimes in log hut or school building, it is the great common table of the Lord—and it will be so observed "till he come." From the night when the soon to be crucified Lord Instituted it until notf. down through the ages, it has not fallen. Na tions have flourished and faded away. Civilizations begin, have molded hu man history, and then are lost Cities rise In their power, swell In their opulence and then molder away until their ve/y sites are forgotten.
