LORD'S SUPPER. 458 LORENZ. to be received by us, in the words of the Fathers, 'for us to hiy lip Christ in ourselves, and place the Saviour "iu our breasts.' " The Presence he calls •sacramental, supernatural, mystical, in- elTable, as opposed not to what is real, but to what is natural." The advocates of this view of the Holy Com- munion contend that it not only embodies the teaching of the early and undivided Church, but that it does so in language calculated to preserve the sacrament from the several forms of error with wliieh it has unha])pily been associated. They assert also that it stands the test of the Chalcodonian formula as summed up by the ju- dicious Hooker. As in the Incarnation our Lord was truly (aXrieios) divine and perfectly {reXius) human, and as the two natures were, in His one Person, united inseparably (adiaipirus) but un- confusedlj' (d(riryx'^<>'s), so in the sacrament of His body and blood there is the supernatural presence "under the form of the natural bread and wine, and the two are miited inseparably, but unconfusedly. The natural is not merged and lost in the supernatural. The supernatural is ■ not overlooked or ignored. The two arc neither cut asunder nor fused together. There is neither a sejjaralion nor an amalgamation. The assertion made recently by Bishop Gore that the spiritual presence is for a purpose — 'in order to be eaten,' as he contends the prayers of consecration in the old liturgies indicate — may possibly conduce toward a harmonizing of dis- cordant views. (For the development of the ser- vice used in connection with the sacrament, see Liturgy : for details relating to communion, see SaCB.ME.NT.S ; COMMUXION IX BOTII Kl.M).S; for fuller exposition of the Roman Catholic teaching, see JIass; Thansubstaktiation.) As to the ma- terials used, it may be said that bread and wine made from the juice of the grape have always been required, the latter mixed with water in the ancient historic churches: though the sects of the Encratites and Elkesaites substituted water for the wine, and some extreme advocates of total abstinence in modern times have suggested the use of unfermcnted grape-juice. The Christians of Saint Thomas in India and the Syrian Chris- tians mixed oil and salt with the bread. Un- leavened bread has been used in the Western Church from an early date, probably by analogy with the usage of the Passover; the Eastern Church still employs leavened bread. As to the frequency of the observance of the rite, it may be said that it is celebrated very frequently, if not daily, in the Eoman Catholic and Eastern churches; in the Anglican communion, the result of the f)xford Movement has been to increase the frequency so that it is generally celebrated bi- monthly or weekly, and in many i)laces daily; tile Protestant churches have usually reduced it to once a month, or quarter, or a year.

LORENZ, lo'rents, Adolf (1854—). An Aus- trian orthopanlic surgeon. He graduated from the University of Vienna in 1880 and olitained the post of assistant to Professor Albert, who then occupied the chair of surgery at the univer- sity. Lorenz had intended to become a general surgeon. Professor Albert advised him to lake up orthop.Tdic surgery, which was then comp;irative- ly new in Vienna, and which consisted mainly in exercise and bracing. The operation which made him famous — the so-called 'bloodless' reduction of congenital dislocation of the hip-joint — was develo])ed only after years of experiment with other methods! Beginning with the 'open' method of HafTa, he modified it by stretching and part- ing, instead of cuttingthe muscles — the Ha(Ta- Lorenz operation — and finally in 1892 conceived the idea of reducing the hip by manipulation alone. In 1895 he demonstrated the ?nethod be- fore the medical congress at Berlin, and it found general acceptance. In 1902 he visited the United States and England; he demonstrated his methods in both countries. He devised several
