The Ceremonies of Holy Week THEIR PURPOSE AND SYMBOLISM

Most Catholics must be aware that all clerics in Holy Orders have to recite daily what is called the Divine Office, consisting of a collection of psalms, readings from the Old and New Testaments, and short accounts of the lives and writings of the saints. This private recitation of daily "Office" occupies a little over an hour, and is both an obligation and a concession. It is a concession because the Church originally intended these prayers to be recited daily in public, as is done even now in monastic Orders and in a few Cathedral Churches. For more than a thousand years this daily prayer of the Church has been divided up into seven different portions, termed respectively Matins and Lauds, Prime, Terce, Sext, None, Vespers, Compline. In the old Monastic Orders the monks used to rise (as, indeed, Carthusians, Cistercians, and others do still) at midnight to recite Matins and Lauds, the other shorter portions being recited at different times during the day. This practice, however, has been found beyond the capacity of clerics and most monks, so that the Church allows of this largest portion (Matins and Lauds) being recited either on the e vening before, or at any time during the day. In the public recitation of "Office," it is the usual practice to recite Matins and Lauds of any given day by anticipation on the preceding evening, and this is what is being done at Tenebrae on the Wednesday. Thursday, and Friday evenings of Holy Week. TENEBRAE. But why arc they called Tenebrae? The normal Matins and Lauds are similar to Tenebrae. but on these three (lays of Holy Week several variations in form and ceremony give the service distinction, both in name and character. Externally there is not much to catch the eye. The most striking feature is the extinction one by one, at the end of each psalm---there are nine psalms in Matins and five in Lauds—of fourteen out of the fifteen lighted candles to be seen in a large triangular candlestick (called a hearse) in the sanctuary. During the Beneclictus the six candles on the altar are slowly extinguished, and all other lights in the church, except the white candle at the apex of the hearse-- the rest of the candles used are yellow. This white candle is left lighted till it is removed towards the end of the ceremony, at the singing of those words that follow immediately the Benedictus—"But the traitor gave them a sign, saying: Ile whom I shall kiss, that is he: hold him fast." It is hidden behind the altar at the epistle side .and all is darkness during the Miserere till the end. There seems little doubt that the name Tenebrae (darkness) given to the Matins and Lauds of these three days owes its origin to this very remarkable ceremony, which can be traced back for more than a thousand years. MAUNDY THURSDAY. The early part of the Mass on Maundy Thursday differs very little from the usual ritual. From the very oldest records it is clear that this day was kept in celebration of the institution of the Blessed Eucharist. The rule that on Maundy Thursday one priest only should celebrate Mass in each church appears to be due to the desire to reproduce as far as possible the conditions under which Our Lord first said Mass in the midst of His Apostles. This desire was so strong in the Church that at one time the Holy Sacrifice was celebrated in the evening of this day. The feature that now distinguisnes it and directs our attention to the Bless. ed Sacrament is the procession, at the end of the Mass, from the high altar to some other altar specially prepared. During the Mass the celebrant consecrates two large Hosts. one as usual for the Mass he is celebrating, and the other to serve for the "Mass of the Presanctified" on Good Friday, which will be mentioned later on. This second Host is placed in a chalice covered with a paten and conveyed in solemn procession to another altar called the "Altar of Repose," or "Sepulchre," there to remain till the Mass on the following day. The Betrayal Day. Nlatitirly Thursday was sometimes called the "Betrayal" day, because of the recurring references throughout the Mass (and also in the Tenebrae of this day anticipated, as already explained, the previous evening) to the betrayal by Judas. Its cruel treachery is insisted upon again and again, and it is

to the deep impression made by the treachery and sacrilege of the unfaithful Judas that the reason for the omission in this Mass of the usual pax, or kiss of peace, has been assigned.

of the Adoration of the Cross. (The Church does not shrink from using the word adoration. All her children know exactly what that implies, and none but the wilfully blind can misunderstand her.) This part of the ceremony is carried out very much as it was in this country a decade of centuries ago, when it was known as the "Creeping to the Cross" (on hands and knees as we read of St. Louis of France doing,. First, parts of the veiled cru• cifix are slowly and separately uncovered, while these words are sung:

the church; and after the thuribles have been filled and a taper lighted from it, a pretty procession is made to the Sanctuary- ministers are in different coloured vestments, a triple decorated candle is carried, and three halts are made, when one of the three candles is lighted from the taper, and, while genuflecting, the "Lumen Christi" ( Light of Christ) is sung each time in a different tone. Following upon this, there is sung the magnificent prayer known as the "Exultet," universally acknowledged to be the finest specimen of plain-song we possess. This prayer, of very great antiquity, touches on various themes. such as the victory of Christ our King rising from the dead, the joy of "Mother Church," the meaning of the Paschal Candle. the "happy fault (of Adam) that deserved to have such and so great a Redeemer," the L ees which produce the wax from which the candle is made, and so on. The deacon interrupts his singing of this prayer three times; first, in order to attach to the Paschal Candle five grains of incense: secondly, to light it from the triple candle carried in the little procession; thirdly, to light the Sanctuary lamp. The five grains of incense referred to, emblematic of prayer and incorruptitm, are set in the form of a cross, and are meant to t ypify the five wounds in our Saviour's glorified body, signified by the Paschal Candle—a beautiful example of early Christian symbolism. The Old Testament. on the "Exultet - come the long readings from the pniphetic books of the 01.I Testament. which gives us an Olea of the ancient form of vigil si rvice.

The ceremony cf the blessing is full of symbolism, accompanied by very beautiful prayers. The Paschal Candle is dipped into Ihe water and the newly.cim• secrated oils poured into it. After the blessing (rarely completed with a bap. tism) some of the font water is set aside for distribution. During the singing ot the litanies that follow, preparations are made for the Mass that concludes the service, when everything becomes indicative of joy, for, coming at the end of the long-, n ght vigil, this was really the midnight Mass of Easter day. hence the w' • • • vestments and the bells at the Gi • t he whole service being carried tic a conclusion ir an atmosphere of al-

In Cathedral Churches the blessing of the oils takes place during the Maundy Mass, which is broken into twice for this purpose, in a manner that would seem altogether extraordinary if it were not remembered that of old three separate Masses were assigned to this day—the first for the reconciliation of penitents, the second for the consecraBehold the wood of the Cross, on tion of the oils, and the third an evenwhich hung the salvation of the world. ing Mass to commemorate the Supper r ome, let us adore. of the Lord (which last is the heading Then the celebrant and his ministers of the Maundy Mass to-day).

Passion Sunday Reading Death on the cross was a punishment unknown to Jewish law. The Jews stoned their condemned criminals. But crucifixion existed amongst all the other nations of antiquity, and the Roman conquerers brought it to the Eastern provinces of their mighty Empire. The cross had the greatest tenor for the Jews, and was proverbial as an emblem of suffering and ignominy. The sufferer lived a whole day, sometimes two; he was stripped naked, and nailed by his hands and feet to a gibbet CT two tree-trunks crossed in the form of the letter T. The whole body was suspended by the hands in a state of extreme tension, and the punctures made by the nails were torn still more widely open under its weight. From these opened wounds, and from the gashes made by the whips of the scourging that went before crucifixion, the blood trickled drop by drop. Hanging thus motionless, consumed by fever and burning thirst, racked in every nerve with fiery thrusts of pain, moving the head slowly from side to side as if seeking relief the moaning victim drew slowly near

Jesus endured the mental pain af mockery and derision as He hung in agony upon the Cross. Chief priests, scribes, and elders mingled their sarcasms with their insults. They talked aloud amongst themselves so that Jests could hear; they laughed to scorn the miracle-worker, the pretended Messiah, the Son of God. "He saved others: Himself He cannot save: let Him come down from the Cross, and we will believe Him. He trusted in God; let God deliver Him now, if He will have Him in favour; for He said, I am the Son of God." The multitudes took up these sarcasms saying. "Thou that destroyest the Temple and buildest it up in these days, save Thyself. If Thou be the Son of God, come down from the Cross." This seems to be the voice of the false witnesses. Men of such low condition are always brutai, vulgar, and cruel. The more stricken their victim, the more provoking do they become. Those that passed along the high road near by lingered a while and joined in the blasphemous railery. Wagging their heads they spat contempt towards Jesus. this subverter of

Sometimes it was necessary to end summarily the protracted agony of the victim, and then an executioner broke his limbs. Never did the cruelty of man conceive anything more horrible than this combination of agony. protraction and infamy. "Cursed is he that hangeth on the tree of the cross." Pilate and Political Expediency. Now. it was this infamous atrocity that the Jews got Pilate to inflict on Jesus. The hatred of the priestly authorities against One Who proclaimed Himself the Son of God could be satisfied with no other punishment. Pilate. the Roman Governor, had been deplorably weak. He knew the sense in which Jesus claimed to be a King. as well as the nature of His kingdom, for •Iestis explained it clearly to him. And when he heard the charge that Jesus claimed to be the Son of God, some shadowy glimmer of the great truth of Christ's Divinity seems to have crossed his mind veiled as it was by heathen prejudices. He came back from the mob to the Pratorium and asked the great question: "Whence cornest thou?" But Jesus made no answer. Perhaps Pilate did not deserve an answer. He was a mere politician without convictions. Had he only a due regard for justice he would at once have done his duty and let Jesus go. At the bottom he feared the Jews, and wished to humour their fanaticism about their law. He tried a policy of expediency when he could easily have suppressed the passions Sending surging before his palace. Jesus to Herod was an expedient to get the business off his hands; the release of Barabas and the Roman scourging of Jesus were expedients. All these manouvres failed. however. Expediency as a substitute for simple justice tends only in weakness, cowardice, and injustice. And so Pilate fell. He delivered Jesus to the raging fury of the Tewiih priests. In the midst el believers and unbelievers his memory will ever remain charged with the deepest injustice There was no absolution for him in the washing of his hands: they remain dyed with the Blood of

The challenge about coming down from the Cross seemed to his pain-racked mind to clinch the argument. Jesus was not the glorious Christ promised to His race, but an imposter: ''If Thou be the Christ," groaned this wretched man, "Save Thyself and us." The bitterness of his w ords came from the shocking agony that stabbed through his body and mind. The other crucified criminal, however, rebuked both him and the -Dast not thou fear God?" he said.

The Moon Remains, Remembering The Moon upon her left hand wore a single diamond star, To show forth her betrothal to the Sky; Shyly cosuettish, she glaneed in through the bars of that foul prison, Were He whose mind had wrought her changeful fairness, Sat now so pallid and so weak and wan, The discarded butt of drunken soldiery. He looked at her; and as He looked, Her star fell trembling from its place of honour; She drew a fleecy cloud of weeping round-about her, then disappeared. Feeling she could betrothe herself to none but Sorrow. The dark night mourned her loss and the rejected Sky her sudden going. For vantage-point Our Lady chose a spot That marked the narrow way to Calvary's height with pitiless aloofnes,: And there She waited, hearing the distant murmur of the crowd Draw near, and yet more near; As one can plainly hear within one's heart at times. The dull foreboding of a coming woe. Tottering He came, as sometimes our life's idols Tottering before us fall, but do not break; While we with inarticulate cry rush forward To catch them to our sheltering arms again, And make-believe they have not suffered harm. So Mary ran, and knelt, and moaned in anguish, That this wrecked remnant of the Word made Flesh could be her Jesus, Her beloved Son. Her eyes, in horror, measured the length of wood, He saw in Hers the Virgin-Motherhood nearing sublime completion, But neither spoke: each in the silence said the things they could not say, Until a lash, a look, a word of rage bade Him proceed and Her to clear the way. Obediently Ile moved, but as He went, His low-priced Blood became part of her gown, And falling stained the sandalled feet of John. The dawn was dark as all dawns are to which the stars have not yet said adieu, When He came swiftly—the glorious risen God— So fair, so fleet, so beautiful! And with that some unearthliness which we have felt when one we mourn as dead, Seems to return at Elevation-hour, Whispering our name and touching us on the shoulder, as if to say: "Hest thou forgotten me?" So did He come, and call His Mother's name, and smile upon Her there. While She adored Him, within the sanctuary of her humble room Where She was harmonising to herself in muted music The first Alleluia of the Paschal joy. So did He come, while Luna now espoused to her first Love, Displayed again a chaste and splendid gem Glowing beneath a golden ring of light.

A society which fosters Catholic -ideals, and whose pride it is to stand four square behind every Catholic movement, is one which deserves greater membership, was the plea of Mr. E. Fahey, in proposing the toast of the II.A.C.B.S. Mr: D. B. Sullivan referred briefly to the history of the West Australian H.A.C.B.S. This society, now 12.000 strong, had capital value assets to the extent of £21,000, and disbursed annually 12,000 in benefits, besides the money it spent in the managing of its O wn affairs. Such figures, maintained the chairman, speak for themselves, and show that the H.A.C.B.S., from point of view of benefits, was unsurpassed in Australia. Mr. Sullivan implored the younger men to take a more active interest in the management of the society. Passing reference was made to the inspiring work of the late Father Lynch, and to the memorial which is to be erected in his honour at a cost of £1,250. Jocularly, Mr. Sullivan referred the young men of the society to some of the young ladies who have joined up recently, "with view to above.' Mr. S. J. Hill proposed the toast of the Caterer, Mrs. Sullivan, and complimented Mrs. Sullivan on the allround excellence of her "duty nobly done" Mr. T.

THE RECORD,

The Pope's Message to the Whole World

Notice to Teachers

SEVEN presentative of Convent School; April 12, Miss Colreavy; April 19, Miss Franklin; and April 26, Miss Sweet, and thereafter each week in turn. Messrs. Kenny, Hill Clark, and A. Wildy were appointed as a management committee to adjudicate on all disputes, and to assist candidates when required. The Rev. Dr. O'Hurley, being mindful of the severe times that are existing, wishes to make an earnest appeal to all Catholics of the parish to assist in this worthy competition. Many can help in the way of direct giving, but those who are less fortunate can give service, and he is hopeful that by a united effort a considerable amount will be available on August 4 to relieve the ever-increasing interest burden on the Church Debt.

Passiontide--"Act Manly!" Henceforth more sparing let us be Of food, of words, of sleep; Henceforth beneath a stricter guard The roving senses keep. —Lenten Hymn. To-morrow, Palm Sunday, the Church begins the work of final and intensive preparation for the Paschal solemnities. Now she commences her liturgical meditation of the blessed Passion of Our Lord, "who entered once into the Holy of Holies and obtained for us an eternal redemption: who by the Holy Ghost offered Himself unspotted to God, that by means of His death we, that are called, may receive the promise of eternal inheritance." (Epistle, Passion Sunday.) • • During these days that intervene between now and Easter we are asked to "act manly" in disposing our souls by prayer and penance. If the weeks that have gone have been wasted, all the more must we strive to use fully the days of Passiontide. Behold this is the acceptable time, this is the day of salvation! This is the season for sincere and earnest preparation for Christ's Resurrection in us, His mystic members. This is the Church's springtide in which the divine sap flows again from the Vine Christ into His branches, causing them to shoot forth and blossom and grow. "Let olden things depart, and all be new around, in every act and voice and heart." The leaven of malice and wickedness must be removed. This is the annual retreat of the Church conducted by the Holy Ghost Himself. His programme is contained in the daily Lenten liturgy, particularly so in the sacred texts of the Lenten Sundays. ,* t * begins to-morrow; Passiontide and calls on us to devote some time each day to meditating on the Passion of Our Lord. In the liturgy of Holy Week, she recalls in detail the various steps that led Him to the hill of death. We hear in the Tenebrae services the prophecies ringing their messages down the arches of the years, and we see them realised in Him as the ceremonial draws us towards Good Friday. In the Tenebrae Office _vouls1:41 read, if-you, are wise enough to produre a Holy Week borticr the story that blends the threads of the Old and New Testaments into a tapestry that all may read.

Observing the extent of those sufferings, we shall realise the price that has been paid for us. and that thought should urge us to greater and more generous love of I-Tim. Passiontide should be to us a springtide of spiritual growth and ibloom and vigour. In the vineyard of the soul there are weeds, briars and brambles that will choke the sprouting vine of God's love unless we root them up and cast them forth. The briars and brambles of sin, and the occasions 'of sin, will appear in all their ugliness when the light of the Passion is directed upon them. Strength and courage will also come to us from"meditating on those scenes: and both are needed if we would cast from us the occasions of gin it at tend to estrange us from Him. :..et the words of the psalmist Fe the el Passiontide for 1.15 all-.

Arriving, they find the stone already rolled back and within, on either side, is an angel, "clothed with a white robe.The women are astonished, but the angels reassure them: "Be not a ffrighted; you seek Jesus of Nazareth.

Saturday, March 28, 1931. Rev. Father Wallace leaves on Monday next by the "Cathay." to visit his relatives in Ireland, where he hopes to spend some months. The Rev. Father James Kenn• edy has assumed charge of Coolgardie. The Rev. Father Winston arrived in Perth on Thursday last, and will stay at St. Mary's until Father Wallace's departure on Monday. • the On the "Oronsay," last Monday, Very Rev, Father Francis Clune, C.F., Consultor to the Provincial, passed through on his way to attend a Chapter of the Passionist Order in Rome. Travelling on the same boat were the Moriarity, Celestine Rev. Father 0.F.M., of Sydney, and the Rev. Father P. O'Meeghan, of Ahaura, Christchurch. While the boat was in port the reverend visitors were the guests of His Grace the Archbishop. By the P. and 0. liner "Ballarat• ," on its way to the Eastern States, is the Rev. Father Gabriel Bezzina, 0.P., who is going to Adelande to take charge of the spiritual welfare of a large colony of Maltese settled in the South Australian capital and its environs. Father Bezzina is a Maltese, and his coming to Australia was in some measure due to his meeting Father Pace in Malta. Father Bezzina served in Salonica as a chaplain during the war. For five years, 19201925. he was a missionary in South - Africa. Recently he was Superior of Nazzareno Church, in Sliema, Malta. A bright disposition, a breezy manner, a hearty laugh, and a virile personality should make Father Bezzina at home in Australia before mony hours, and that he is glad to come, and wishes to remain. is very evident. CONFIRMATION CEREMONY. The Lady Chapel in the new Cathedral was the scene of a very impressive ceremony on Tuesday evening last, March 24, when His Grace the Archbishop administered the Sacrament of Confirmation to a group of thirty-three adults, most of whom were converts. His Grace, after the ceremony of Confirmation, briefly addressing the candidates, said that it was hoped to repeat every year the touching ceremony of that evening, and expressed the fervent hope that Our Lady, before whose altar they had been Confirmed, would strengthen them always in the pracThe ceremony tice of their Faith. concluded with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. His Grace was assisted by Very Rev. Father Prendiville, Adm., and the Rev. Dr. Sullivan. HOLY WEEK CEREMONIES. Palm Sunday: The solemn blessing of the palms will take place before the 7 o'clock Mass in the Cathedral. The palms will be The distributed at all the Masses. Passion Gospel according to St. Matthew will be sung during the II o'clock • Mass Christus: Rev. Father Winston. Narrator: Rey. Father Purcell. 0.M.I. Rabble: Rev. Father McMahon. Spy Wednesday: The Office of Tenebrae will be chanted at 7.30 pm. Only one Nocturn of Matins will be sung, to be followed by Lauds. His Grace the Archbishop requests that all the priests of the metropolitan area will attend the Holy Week ceremonies in the Cathedral. The chanters will be Rev. Father Kmarin and Rev. Father McMahon. Preacher: Rev. Father Sullivan. Lamentations: Rev, Father McMahon. 121 Rev. Father Butler. (3) Rev. Father Kearin. Note: For the guidance of those who use a Holy Week book, we would explain that Tenebrae is the Matins and Lauds of the Divine Office which priests are bound to say on Thursday, Friday. and Saturday of Holy Week. The Matins and Lauds of Thursday are anticipated on Wednesday evening, that of Friday on Thursday evening, and that of Saturday on Friday evening. This year only one Nocturn, consisting of three psalms and three lessons will be sung. and then come Lauds. The three lessons each evening are taken from the Prophet Jeremiah's lamentations over Jerusalem and the plight of its people. They are sung to a plaintive sad air, resembling the dirges or songs of mourning of the past. They are considered to be very beautiful examples of that form of music. The words of the lamentations are most appropriate to the sad occasion, and express in poetic words the Church's feelings on the approach of Good Friday. As Jeremiah lamented over the sufferings of his people, so does the Church, adopting the poetic utterances of the prophet, lament and mourn over the approaching death of Christ.

The gift came in the nature of a Christmas present to f ellow parishioners by one who has benefited his Church considerably in the Archdiocese. always anonymously, and who is deeply interested in the progress of the Catholic Press.

THE RECORD.

Aunt Bessy's Corner DEAR NIECES. AND NEPHEWS,— In another fortnight Easter will be with us. Many of you are looking forward to the Easter holidays, and if the weather keeps as hot as it is at present, the seaside will be first favourite. Swimming classes will soon come to an end, and I wonder how many of you will get your Royal Life-Saving CertiThis seems to be an age of ficates. sport. Clean sport is a grand thing; but keep it clean, boys and girls, and do not allow any jealousy or ill-feeling to creep in. Play your games for the sake of the game, not for praise Be and the plaudits of the crowd. true sportswomen and sportsmen, a healthy, happy crowd, unanimous in school, games, and friendship, like one united family. Friendship is a grand thing, and school friendships, or friendships formed at school often last a lifetime, so choose your friends wisely and well. Remember, "a man is known by the company he keeps," and this applies to boys and girls as well. When you find a good friend, keep him or her for all time, for a true friend is worth more than gold. These few lines on friendship caught my attention in a magazine the other day, and as quite a number of my nieces and nephews like verses,Ipass the thoughts contained in the verses on to them: Follow your heart in your friendships, For your heart will point the way; And the friends you make, for pure love's sake, You will keep for many a day. Follow your heart in your friendships, Position, money, or fame. Will not weigh a thing against joys that tint At the sound of a true friend's name. Follow your heart in your friendships, Make friendship your finest art. So its lasting thrill may. be with you still, When your heart is a worn-old heart. —A. C. A few lines, well worth pondering over, a true friend is worth more than all the world can bring to you. Think of the fun you can have in your Easter holidays at the seaside with your friend, watching the blue, the deep, deep sapphire of the engirdling sea, and you think. "there is nothing on earth like it; it is as near to Heaven as one can get." But, when swimming, do not go too far out, or you might reach Heaven sooner than you intended. Keep within the safety zone. Have you ever sat with half-closed eyes, with your back against a grey rock, looking down a slope to the glittering ocean, and enjoyed the wonderful sight before you, a thing to be stored with care in the recesses of the memory, and kept for the grey days of life, days that come to us all; days when we realise the worth of a true friend. It is time for me to stop. So make the very most of your Easter holidays, for only too soon winter will be here. AUNT BESSY.

THE RECORD.

News and Notes ( Continued from Page 11.) Early on Sunday morning last, at St. Vincent's Private Hospital, Sydney, the F. Right Rev. Monsignor Denis O'Haran, after a short illness, passed to his eternal reward. For many years he was Administrator of St. Mary's, and private secretary to Cardinal Moran. In those early days of his association with the late Cardinal Moran, he was a prominent personage in ecclesiastical circles, and a striking and distinguished looking personality when he appeared in public with top hat, frock coat, and cassock. That was some 35 or 36 years ago. He was one of the executive of the Third Australian Catholic Congress in 1909. at which Cardinal Moran presided. The Conyngham a ffair, which was nothing more than a blackmailing conspiracy, but primarily a wicked attempt to asperce the dignity of the Catholic priesthood, brought him into the fierce light of an unenviable public notice. The ordeal to which he was then subjected through long days of bitter cross-examination, was a terrible one against which his soul must have revolted: but through it all he came unscathed. That notorious case ended in an ignoble discomfiture of his enemies, an absolute exposure of a despicable conspiracy by a detested class of bigots, whose real purpose was to besmirch the Catholic Church. After the death of the Cardinal, who never wavered in his trust in Dr. O'Haran, he was transferred to the charge of the Sacred Heart parish. Darlinghurst Some years ago he was seriously injured in an accident, from which he seemed to have recovered, though it impaired his usually good health and his activities. Nevertheless the Monsignor had rounded out a good old age. He was the chief chaplain of the H.A.C.B. Society, and took a great interest in its affairs. During his brief illness he was visited by numerous friends, including Archbishop Kelly and the Papal Delegate. The latter conveyed to him the Apostolic Blessing. May his soul rest in peace.

His Grace Dr. Mannix blessed and opened the additions to St. Aloysius' School, conducted by the Presentation Nuns. at Caulfield, recently. In his occasional address. Dr. Mannix referred to the Commonwealth's present unhappy affairs. He said: "Australia w as passing through difficult and trying times, and he regretted that the silver lining to the dark cloud could not be seen yet. He sincerely hope( that God would rescue Australia from its existing plight. (Applause.) The time had come for all to realise that there must be equitable common sacrifice, and without this Australia would not be facing towards prosperity. For several months they had been told that Australia was in need of an operation t. . relieve its economic malady, but it had not been performed yet. They had it on the best authority that the operation was absolutely necessary, and it was very foolish on the part of t he people to keep on delaying it. The trouble was that Australia was consulting too many' surgeons, who were fighting among themselves. (Laughter.) When the surgeons seemed to come to an agreement about anything, the patient, Australia. woke up on the operating table and fought the whole of the consultants. (Laughter.) This seemed to him to hit off the Australian situation pretty accurately. (Applause.) He would like to see the patient chloroformed without delay, and the necessary operation performed in the best interests of the country. (Applause.) Until this was done, he could see no hope of any real improvement. He t rusted that Australia would soon emerge from its difficulties, and that brighter time,: would come, (Applause.)" The fate of Father Tierney. of the Irish Mission in China, who was captured by Chinese bandits some time ago, and is held by them for ransom. is uncertain. Fears are that he is dead. When last heard from, he was in ill health, and hurried here and there by the bandits. His letters to friends in Ireland were not hopeful. A refereoce was made to his case on Monday l. ct by the Parliamentary Under Secisoary to the Foreign Office (Mr. H. 11)alton). who stated it was feared Father Tierney was dead, though there was no confirmation of the rumour. and Chine, Government had ordered t he local magistrate to pay the full ransom It was also stated the British Minister was continuing to do everything in his pc-we so effect the release 61 Father Tiem:f he NMI still alive.

added to the list of heroic soldiers of the Cross who have died in the service of Christ-King in the fight for souls. Mr. Wm. J. Horan, father of Dr. J. Horan, vice-president of the Celtic Club, and president of the C.B.C. Old Boys' Association, died at- his residence, St. Leonard's Avenue, Subiaco, on Tuesday last. He was a retired civil servant, and well known on the Goldfields and Perth. The late Mr. Horan was a member of St. Kevin's Branch of The funeral the H.A.C.B.

Horan and his relatives, -The Record' extends its sympathy in te : bereave ment. R.I.P. Archbishop Kelly, preaching at High Mass in St. Mary's Basilica on a Sunday morning recently, said: "We need not expect our food to be rained down from heaven, because God has fitted man to produce from the earth his daily sustenance, and man has the inclinations and instinct which lead him to work to get it. It is a principle of religion that 'he who will not work let him not eat: The workman's industry and labour are required by the capitalist. We must do our best by living Without economically and frugally. these, want will come upon us like an armed man. Refuse to pay your tawful debts, and your own soul is in pawn.

A man goes to a banker to negotiate a loan. He is bound by promises, and will not lati pardoned by God if he does not pay back to the last farthing. Therefore if a man wastes his money, and is unable to pay his debts, he is a dishonest man. A man's life or health does not depend on luxuries. The simplest food is the best in the long run." The deepest sympathy is extended to Mrs. O'Brien, of Station-street, East Guildford, on the death of her little daughter, Monica Mary Crowley, which took place last week after a short illness. A Requiem Mass was celebrated for the repose of her soul on Friday morning, the 20th. inst., in St. Columba's Church, Bayswater. and the funeral took place immediately after, when her remains were laid to rest beside her father in the Karrakatta Cemetery. May her soul rest in peace. • • • There was a great gathering of Italians in the church of Our Lady of Peace, Gladesville INSW,i, to witness the unveiling and blessing of a beautiful statue of Our Lady Del Terzito by the Apostolic Delegate. The statue is of highly ornamental make, and is the gift of Mrs. Pause, an Italian lady parishioner. The church was crowded beyond capacity. The occasional address was delivered by Father LockingIt 0. S.J. The Apostolic Delegate ( Archbishop rattaneo) addressed the people in Italian. The Italians present were delighted to hear an address in their native tongue. Father Marabrini, who is giving a mission at Paddington for Italians, also woke in ha' ban, and asked the Italians to attend t he mission. Father P. Nulty, P.P., Hornsby (New South Wales), died suddenly in his study on the 13th .inst., from heart failure. Father Nulty, who was in the prime of life, was a gifted priest and a big-hearted man. For his people he laboured with all a true pastor's zeal. In the panegyric of his friend, Father Barry, it was said "the straying away of one of his little ones struck Father Nulty with great sorrow; if it had been his brother or his sister, he could not have been more moved or felt the occurrence more keenly." The deceased priest was born in Counts- Meath, Ireland. :5-1 years ago, and made his studies for the priesthood at Ail Hallows,' where he was ordained in 1904. He had been in indifferent health for some time. Archbishop Sheehan presided at the Solemn Office and High Mass. Priests from all parts of the Archdiocese came to pay their lest tribute to a much loved brother priest R.I.P

Carnarvon First Annual St Patrick's Ball. Tuesday, March 17, the feast of St. Patrick, was celebrated both spiritually and otherwise There was a large attendance at Mass and a good number approached Holy Communion In the evening the first annual ball was held in the Convent Hair. There was a very large gathering of dancers, and several tables of Bridge and Mahiong

The "Sunbeam" Orchestra, players. the newly-formed Catholic orchestra of Camarvon, made its first appearance, and judging by the many favourable comments made by capable critics, it was an outstanding success. It comprises of six instruments, viz., Miss M. Snook, conductor (piano), Mr. W. Willosee (banjo), Misses E. King, M. Lewer and Mr. F. Knucky (violins), and Mr. J. Skipworth (drums and effects). The music played was the very latest from the capital city, and so all new to Carnarvon. On this occasion the committee system was departed from the organising body being a trio of young men, with Rev. Father McKay at their head. They were Messrs. R. Knuckey (refreshments), J. Skipworth (decorations), and L. Skipworth (treasurer). About 150 persons sat down to an excellent supper, which was served in the open-air, and divided into two sitPractically the whole of the tings. dainties were donated by parishioners and a number of non-Catholics, making the expenses in this department alAn energetic most a minus quantity band of ladies served the supper, and everybody enjoyed the repast Dancing, cards, and mahjong were continued until 1 am., when all retired, after the playing of the National Anthem.

The Question Box Holy oils.

The Holy Oils used in the administration of certain of the Sacraments. and in other religious functions, are blessed by a Bishop (luring Mass on Holy Thursday. The consecration of oils during Mass dates from the earliest times, and is attributed to Apostolic tradition. In earlier centuries the ceremony took place on any day at Mass. but in the year 490, Pope Leo the Great permanently fixed Holy Thursday as t he day on which the ceremony must take place. There are three kinds of oil used in the Church's ritual, or rather the same oil is blessed for three different purposes. and is called accordingly by three different names. Oil of Catechumens. Holy Chrism, and Oil of the Sick The first is used principally in Baptism. to anoint the catechumens. Hence its name. Holy Chrism derives its name from being used generally to anoint, and is composed of olive oil mixed with balsam, an odoriferous resin. Oil of the Sick is so called from its use in the Sacrament of Extreme Unction. Litanies. The word "Litany" is of Greek origin, and in its strict sense, means humble supplication or devout and earnest The term applies rather to prayer. each petition than to the prayer as a whole, and in the liturgical language of the Church, the plural form is alIn English we use the ways used. singular, and apply it to the whole series of petitions. There are various litanies authorised by the Church, such as the Litany of the Saints, the Litany of the Holy Name, and the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, known as the Litany of Loreto. This last litany is the one most commonly in use among the faithful, and is the oldest of all From time to time additional petitions have been inserted, the last being "Queen of Peace." inserted by Pope Benedict XI.

sacrifice.

Sacrifice is the greatest act of won ship of God that man can perform The ends of a true sacrifice are four, viz.. Adoration, thanksgiving, petition. and reparation. The destruction of the victim, or thing offered. typifies God's supreme dominion and principal. lv His power over life and death. God Himself, in the Old Law, commanded sacrifice to be offered to Him: and, indeed, the idea of sacrifice in God's honour seems to be an instinct planted in the heart of man, since all peoples. even savages, have offered sacrifice The sacrifices of the Old Law were but types of the great Sacrifice of the New Law, namely. the Sacrifice of the Cross on Mount Calvary, and the Sacrifice of the Mass, in which Our Lord Himself is both Priest and Victim

Celtic Club "At Home" On Thursday evening, the 19th. inst., the committee and members of the Celtic Club entertained their friends at the annual "At Home" at the Club premises, corner of Irwin-street and St. George's Terrace. As in the past, the lawn in front of the bowling green was brilliantly illuminated, where seating accommodation was provided for approximately 300 people, and the whole of it utilised. Owing to the unavoidable absence of the President (Mr. Ernest Parker) through severe illness, the Vice-President (Dr. J. W. Horan) had charge of the evening, and on be-

half of the Club welcomed the large gathering af ladies and gentlemen present. A delightful open-air concert was conducted until 10 p.m., which was contributed to by the following artists: Mr. Billy Edwards, Miss Rhoda Ash, Miss Doris Horrigan, Miss Reith, Miss E. Hart, Mr. Roy Glenister, Mr. Hugh Torrance, Mr. Peter Roxby, Mr. Will Ginnivan, and Mr. M. Eustace. The capable rendering of beautiful Irish melodies was highly appreciated, whilst "The Joy Boys," under the leadership of Mr. Billy Edwards, kept the gathering in laughter with their decidedly humorous items. A t the conclusion of the concert, supper was provided in the spacious Billiard ROOM where the catering was in t he capable hands of Mrs. T. Goodman and her staff. The tables were beautifully decorated with roses, dahlias, and Michaelmas daisies, and the excellence of the supper was quite a feature of the evening. The artistic lounge mom of the Club became a ballrocnn for the occasion, and was funk patronised by a large number of dancing enthusiasts. By unanimous opinion, the evening's function is looked upon as the most sue. cessful yet conducted by the Club. and reflects great credit upon the committee, viz., Mr. E. Parker (President), Dr. Horan and Mr. J. J. Lloyd (VicePresidents), J. Tully (Treasurer). and Messrs. L. Dwyer. J. F. O'Grady, A. Boylan, J. H. McDonald, L. Ryan, M. Ahern. T. Kinsella, P. J.

'Mid pleasures and palaces, wherever we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home." JUNE SWEETNESS. of Summer, waving all day grass Sweet long Thy soft hair in the silver-gliding wind; On those pale violet noons, when the wind's song Goes stealing oi"er fields, the music kind Of magic tunes that some from far away; When in the grass the mild moondaisies burn Their silver disks round golden e s of day. W hich toward the Sun in mazed dreams they turn, And, in the hedges, blushing virginally, The shell-pink eglantine peers forth with sweet Dewy child-faces that smils perpetually0 flowers that thick 'mid waving seed-grass throng! 0 swift passing of the subtle silver feet, Sweet grass of Summer waving, all day long! —Wilfred Childe, in "G.K.'s Weekly THE WISDOM OF FATHER DEGEN. The decay of the sense of sin in these days makes the free and easy unsupervised camaraderie between boys and girls doubly perilous. An unkind word, uttered in the space of a moment, sometimes poisons a whole lifetime. A person's character is largely formed and i certainly indicated by the way in which he spends his leisure bours. A hundred per cent. convictions of success is half the battle in any arduous undertaking. Grim determination is the "Open Sesame" to all doors that have hitherto been closed to you. The Saints did not drop from the clouds temptationless and ready-made. They differed from the man in the street only in this, that they had the moral courage to follow in the footsteps of Our Lord in the teeth of the devil, the world, and the flesh. Take your religion with yQl1 wherever you go—into the shops and the place, take it with you to work and to your club. Don't put it away along with your Sunday clothes, and never hang it up with your hat and coat on a peg. Be a real live-wire apostle at all times and in all plates, at least by your personal good example.—From the "Irish Catholic." I NFLUENCE OF THE HOME. Most Rev. Dr. O'Brien, Bishop of Kerry (Ireland/. in his Lenten Pastoral warns parents that it is not in the schools but in their homes that people are fashioned and moulded, and the family resemblance, not only in face and figure, but also generally in character and temperament, is apparent to all. The vast majority of their Catholic homes had been all that could be desired from a religious and moral point cf view. If there was a falling off it was due to the lack of parental control. St. Paul in his Epistle to the Ephesians warned fathers not to provoke their children to anger, but to bring them up in the discipline and correction of the Lord. A child was capable of instruction much earlier than most parents realised. Long before it could go through the process of reasoning or forming a judgment it was capable of receiving impressions which often lasted a lifetime, and the important truths of religion should be impressed on their young minds. The children should be surrounded in their homes by everything that helped to create a religious a tmosphere. Every Catholic home should have a selection of the Catholic Truth Society booklets. In the words of St. Auustine. "Every Christian home

should also be a private church whose priests are the parents, and whose faithful are the children." CHARACTER FROM CIGARS. Character fro mhandwriting and pa/. inistry we are acquainted with, but a Paris contemporary announces that dispositions can be gauged from cigars. The man who smokes, we learn, is easily recognised. His lips show it, without his speaking. He who fixes his cigar deeply in the mouth is of a nature resolute, sceptical, and abrupt; one who bites off the end of his cigar is careless, thoughtless, or listless. When the cutter is used to nip off the end the smoker may be considered as a man of caution. The user of the amber ohlder may be considered a delicate person. The man who smokes his cigar to the end is a faithful friend, a ccnstant husband, and of a persevering nature. If one is in the habit of throwing away the cigar when only half-smoked he may be considered fickle, blase, and a trifler. Further characteristics can be deduced from the habit of allowing the cigar to die out. Such a persons suffers from want of memory. He may have aptitude for mathematics, but he is not selfish.

the night, a bear came to his door and made humble cries, as if in great pain. The saint opened the wicket, and saw the poor animal licking one of its paws, which was pierced by a large thorn. Taking his lantern, St. Aventine gently removed it. The bear expressed gratitude by wagging his tail, and then returned to the forest and was seen no more. Venerable Bede relates that wild animals used to fawn upon St. Cuthbert while he prayed alone by night on his desert island. A monk of the celebrated monastery of St. Gall, before his death, made a public confession, as if a great sin, that he had once killed a wolf. VIA CRUCIS. On Calvary, beneath the blows Of Roman hands bowed down, dear Lord— From Head to Foot the Man of Woes Oh, Creator, oh Christ, oh God! They spat upon thy pallid Face: They pushed Thee down upon the way; With spear-ends urged thy halting pace, Yet Christ—thy lips essayed to pray-. And she who had in Jewish halls Evoked the wonder of all eyes; Sees how her tender first-born falls And turns her face to Heaven and sighs. The mournful Mother's face was grey; "Ah. Christ, ah Son"—she murmured low; And wandered cm the crimson way Alone and helpless in her woe. And from the lonely Mount, a cry— She thought perhaps her young Son groaned; ' Ala must my gentle Jesus die?"— And covered face with hands and groaned. .1h, broken Flesh and aching Eyes!

a while? I have travelled far, and have far to go?" "Why, God bless you, of course you may rest here; but come in and bathe yourself, and good Brother Patrick will give you some refreshments." The stranger entered, and after he had washed the dust from his face and hands, he was led into the refrectory and esated. Brother Patrick, with his delightful smile, that meant such a whole-hearted welcome, was putting f ood and fruit and milk before the weary man. The latter drew back, and said in a soft voice, "Brother, I have nothing wherewith to pay you." "Oh, yes you have," responded the Brhther, "you bring us God's blessink. We ask no greater reward." When the man had finished, he said, "God bless you." The Brothers bowed their heads, and as he went forth, Brotner James said, "God be with you." He watched the departing figure, and it seemed to him that the tattered clothes faded away, and the figure was draped in white, a celestial light about the head, and the Brother fancied he heard him say, "In so much as you do it unto one of the least of these, ye do it unto Me.-

THE CHARITY OF OUR LADY Beyond all charity is the charity which the Mother of God most mercifully showed to us when she willingly gave up her Son to die for us. As God's love to man is shown supremely in that He gave His only zegotten Son to die for us, so the charity of Mary is displayed conspicuously in her willing offering of her only Son, which she made first in the Temple and afterwards on Calvary.

Women are home-makers and sometimes, home-lovers (but, alas! homebreakers). Home should be a place where husbands love to come for quietness, comfort, and rest, a place where the boys and girls know their friends are welcome, and that mother will take an interest in their pleasures and sorrows. Ah! mothers, what a lot lies in your hands; what influences for good and evil in your words, the marring or Satisfy making of men and women. that little feminine tonging, and make your home look attractive, and no matter how busy you may be, look attracA dainty house, and a tive yourself. dainty wife, what more can a man look for? Gay, intimate bits of furnishing, warm, glowing, light shades cost little to make, and add to the beauty of the home. More and more women are waking up to the fact that homes must be made more attractive than clubs and picture palaces. Give individuality to your rooms, a touch of colour where it is most comforting. Sunshine in your home, and all the happiness that colour and fresh flowers will bring. A mansion, rich and dark may seem, The height of many a woman's dream. But, oh! a little house for me. A house all painted shiningly. Outside and in, its wails of white, Its shutters green, its red roof bright. With roses clambering up the walls, Where goldenly the sunlight falls. Inside its door.

Household Hints and Recipes. Orange Cups: Cut as many oranges as desired in halves, cross-wise: squeeze out the juice. and scrape out the pulp, leaving the sheds as clean as possible. Care should be taken not to break them or spoil their shape. Strain the juice and pulp through a coarse strainer, and heat it. Cut up one pint packet of orange jelly, and dissolve it in the hot juice, making it up to barely a pint with the jelly. Leave it to cool. Heat half a pint of milk, add to it one beaten egg; bring to boil, but do not curdle; add two dessertspoons of sugar, and leave it also to cool before adding to the cool jelly. When added together, fill up the orange cups with the mirture. leave them to set, and decorate with cherries and blanched almonds.

CAUSES OF DEPRESSION.

TWO STORIES

The Gift of Song It was November the 22nd. The choir boys of St. Cecilia's had held high festival. The rich, mellow voice of the golden-throated Claro had echoed through the sacred edifice and every member of the congregation had listened to him entranced. That afternoon. Claro went to fetch little Rita from her Granny's cottage, and take her for a ramble through the woodland where often they had wandered hand in hand. The morning's music was still ringing in Rita's ears and, as they sat together on a little mound, she whispered in his ear "Carlo mio! sing once more." And again, the boy's glorious voice rang through the solitude as he sang the Ode to St. Cecilia in his own mellifluous Italian. The hymn was over and a strange hush had fallen when, taking one of her small hands in his, he whispered in his turn "Rita mia! Nymph of the woods! I go to-morrow to San Pancras to embrace the monastic life. I leave thee my pet lamb. Think of me and pray for me sometimes." It was some years since Claro had gone away, and Rita was now a beautiful girl of fifteen or sixteen, a little too sophisticated for her age, if you will, but nothing worse than that. The pet lamb was dead and perhaps the memory of its former owner. It sometimes happens that, even at that early age, when one has had a surfeit of earth's pleasures, one feels satiated and li Fngs for the purer joys that never lose their freshness. So it was with Rita. W henever she thought of her childhi,ocl's friend, a still small voice said to her heart, "go thou and do likewise" • • The Balkan war broke out and Italy called for her sons from far and near

to rally round her flag and fight for her honour. That was how it happeed that a monk from sunny Ceylon was found fighting for his motherland on the battlefields of Southern Europe. The hospitals were full of the sick and the wounded and calm-faced, gentle-voiced nuns, Sisters of Mercy, flitted too and fro in the wards bringing comfort to souls as well as bodies. It so happened that typhus fever broke out and claimed soldiers and nurses as its victims. Among the stricken was Sister Ursula, one of the most devoted of the nuns. It was evident from the very start. that death had marked her for its own, and no time was lost in administering the Last Sacraments. As she lay on her poor bed moaning with pain, a priest from the fighting line was ushered in to give her the last consolations of religion. One look at the wan, white face on the pillow and an agonised cry broke out from him: - Rita!" "Claro!" answered the feeble voice of the patient sufferer. He heard her simple confession, gave her the Holy Viaticum, and anointed After a while, she would hear her. him sing once more before she died. He sang the same old "Ode to St. Cecilia," his favourite and hers in the days of their far-off childhood, and the magnificent voice rang through the core riclors of the white-washed hospital. The hymn was hardly over when she quietly expired with her hand in his. The war came to a close, at last, and Claro went back to Ceylon to win souls to Christ with his voice of thrilling power. carrying with him memories, sad but sweet—Grace Noble. in the "Ceylon Messenger."

Address by Chairman of the AngloFrench Banking Corporation. The following extract from Mr. Szaryasy's address, delivered at the annual general meeting of the Anglo-French Banking Corporation, draws attention to some of the world-wide factors contributing to the present depression: "Another potent cause is to be found in the struggle of nearly every nation to be economically and industrially selfcontained. This tendency, first prompted by necessity, found its origin during the war, and brought about a constantly increasing output of commodities and the products of industry and agriculture. It was hard to reverse the wheel suddenly and return to normal conditions when Peace was signed. In this effort to increase production the application of science to industry received sudden and generous encouragement, but when the war strain ceased mechanised industry could no longer absorb the available inflow of labour. With this increase in production came the appalling retrogression suffered by civilisation in Russia, then the war in China, together representing the serious curtailment of the purchasing power of some 400,000,000 people affecting the consumption of goods manufactured by the rest of the world. After, there came the boycott in India, so that, just at a time when output of commodities increased out of proportion to normal demands. consumption decreased, due to these abnormal conditions. Briefly put. manufacturing countries are no longer able to consume the primary commodities produced by other nations, and these in turn, failing to sell their produce, have insufficient purchasing power to pay for manufactured articles: this state of affairs has clogged the wheels of trade and commerce all The way back to around the globe. normal, to properly balanced conditions, leads along a road which is botharduous and long. This path is a painful one to traverse because, whatever remedies may be applied, it cannot but entail an all round reduction in standards of living: indeed, the present crisis might well be characterised as one primarily affecting the standards of living of the population of the world, and the recovery will be slow, because the struggle between the various classes of society is centred round the degree of sacrifice to be shouldered by each of them, further aggravated and more difficult of settlement by the well-defined swing towards social democracy A full copy during the last decade." of the address is available at the Banking and 'Exchange Department of Thos. Cook and Son's Perth office.
