recalls to the devout mind all the
striking experiences of Jesus during
the last (my days of his life as a

Tomorrow is the. anniversary of
the last visit Jrsus made to Jeruo
salem when a multitude. of people
met him on the journey and strew-
ed his path with palm branches.
Little children. so the Bible story
ad‘s-s, sang his praises. and his entry
into the old valsh capitol looked
like a. triumplml tour although it

crucifixion.

In all the Roman Catholic and
Episcopal churches palm branches
will be distributed at the morning
services tomorrow. Before they are
passed out they are blessed. and
usually instructions are given these
who receive the palms that they are
to be treated with respect and not
treated as refuse when they are 'dried.
The branches should be burned.

Next to Easter and Christmas Palm
Sunday music is probably the most
elaborate of any Sunday during the
year.
