Presbyterians in their pews, and Methodists
at the rail use individual glasses, cordial size, with morsels of
leavened bread. Many an Anglo-Catholic Episcopalian apes the Catholic
practice of communion in one form. But opponents of the common cup,
who plan to take their battle to the Episcopal general convention next
autumn, have no intention of departing from good Episcopal methods.
They favor "intinction," as practiced in the Eastern Orthodox
Church and in some U. S. parishes, where there are tuberculous communicants.
By intinction, the wafer is dipped in the wine, handed by
the priest to the communicant.
