For a while, as a child, my family lived over the hardware store that my father owned. My front yard was the main street of New Brighten, Pennsylvania, with an alley being my backyard. One Wednesday in March, I was exploring my domain when I began to notice people with something black on their foreheads. Had a new and strange disease broken out that caused these affectations? Since the Methodist church that my family attended did not observe Ash Wednesday, I was not familiar with the tradition of the imposition of ashes on Ash Wednesday.
