TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
On a summer day, with the windows open, we
may hear the sound of church bells. Bells seem to have
come into church life in Irish monasteries around the seventh century, and spread around the Christian world by
Irish monks on missionary journeys. By the eighth century, bells were standard equipment in even small parish
churches. An ancient ceremony, once called the “baptism
of the bells,” recognizes that the church bell has a voice to
call people to awareness and summon them to worship,
and even bestows a name on the bell.
In a world without clocks or watches, the bell had
an indispensable role. For calling monks in from the
fields for prayer, or alerting far-flung visitors, the bell’s
voice was enhanced by hoisting it high into a tower. Soon
it was learned that the sound of several bells clanging together in harmony imparted a sense of joy to great celebrations, and bell towers prospered, some chock full of
bells. Different combinations of rings could indicate a
death, a Mass, a wedding, a fast day, the curfew at the end
of day, and the Angelus. Before electricity, bell-ringing
was hard work indeed: the biggest bell in the Catholic
world, in Cologne, Germany, weighs twenty-seven tons!
There’s no substitute for the resonant roar of a mighty
bell; electric chimes are not eligible for blessing!

WHY IS IT
A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
brushes his teeth
with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup
of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work
in an ADVERTISED car
and then . . . .
refuses to ADVERTISE
believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor
he ADVERTISES it for sale.
