The head that once was crowned with thorns (A. and M. 301; S.P. 175; C.H. 131: Tune, St. Magnus)
From Easter Day onwards, for a period of six weeks, Our Lord visited his disciples at intervals and showed himself alive after his Passion by many infallible proofs. But these appearances could not continue indefinitely, and the day came when he visited them for the last time. This is the event that was commemorated yesterday -the Ascension Day. But before he parted from them he made that great promise: ' Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.' Today's interlude helps us to understand a little more clearly what that promise meant.

Most towns in this country grew from small beginnings without any clear plan. The result is to be seen in the confused and sprawling mass of many of our cities and towns, which badly needed replanning before the destruction of the )ast war left its mark upon them.' Now our bomb-damaged cities are being rebuilt and in addition completely new towns are appearing
