Second Annual Communion Breakfast of H.A.C.B.S., Geraldton A Strong Plea for Catholic Education Communion The second annual Breakfast for the men of the parish, and of the surrounding district, conducted by the St. Francis Xavier's Branch of the Hibernian Australasian Catholic Benefit Sociey, Geraldton, was held in the Cathedral Hall on Sunday, April 26, and was largely attended. This Sunday was the closing day of the Mission, which had been conducted by the Redemptorist Fathers, and was made a general Communion day for all the parish. The women received Holy Communion at the 7 am. Mass, and the men received at the 9 a.m. Mass. It is estimated that in the region of 150 men approached the Communion rails. After the 9 o'clock Mass, Mr. J. Sullivan, the President of St. Francis Xavier's Branch of the H.A.C.B.S. welcomed the priests and the visitors at the Communion Breakfast in the Cathedral Hall. Grace was said by Rev. Father Cosgrave, C.SS.R., one of the missioners. Those present included Rev. Father Cosgrave, C.SS.R., Rev. Father Halpin, Rev. Bros. Goggins and Grealey, Messrs. IR. Tindal, J. J. Ryan, and Councillors H. J. Foster and P. N. Briers. Owing to his being away at Greenough, conducting a mission at that centre, Rev. Father Mitchell, C.SS.R., was unable to be present. The toast of "The Pope and the King" was honoured by all standing. In proposing the toast of "Australia," Mr. R. C. Tindal recounted a story which he had heard concerning the one-time President of South Africa, Paul Kruger. The time, he said, was during the Boer War, when the Australians had decided to enter the conflict. Kruger, having heard of their intentions, called one of his generals to him and said, "Who are these Australians? Are they good fighters?" The general, apparently au fait with the sport of the day. said: "Sir, they are good fighters. I know that eleven of them recently beat all England." Continuing, the speaker said he was proud and honoured to be proposing the toast of "Australia," the land in which we live. He referred to the hard times generally being experienced by Australia and Australians, but he was fully confident that that grit for which our men are so noted would pull them through, and soon prosperity would be ours. (Applause.) Councillor Foster. in responding to the toast, stated there was not any doubt that Australians were fighters. Only the day before we had celebrated Anzac Day, when so many of them valiantly laid down their lives for their country. He said that at the present time Australia was going through a distressing period, but each Australian had his and her back to the wall, and was showing the s-ame spirit as displayed by those gallant Anzacs. Analysis would prove there was no doubt of Australians' ability to pull their country out of its present position. He thought that the country was sufferingS from political ills. No man was infallible, but the root of the trouble was to be found in politics. He said he thought there was an alliance between Australia and the Hibernian Society. The membership of such a society was a meaus of furthering education in the men and women of the country. He, as an old Hibernian, could look back on good times he had with his branch. Later in life men and women would thank the society fot what it had done for them. The Hibernian Society brought out the best that was in a man or woman. He quoted as such an instance the Prime Minister, Mr. J. H. Scullin, who said he thanked the society for what it had done for him, for it was in its meeting rooms that he, the Prime Minister, had first learned to speak as a public man Mr. Foster advised those present who were not members of the Hibernian Society to think it over and then join up. They would never regret it. Australia required the best from men and women, and that best would be brought out in them at the meetings of the H.A.C.B.S. The conduct of members of the society would speak for their training. The next toast was that of "Catholic Education.- which was proposed by Mr. T. P. Shanahan. The speaker said he wondered if all present fully realised the true significance of Catholic education He said it was one of the most vital and determining factors in the life of every Catholic child, man and woman—it was the source from which they received their training, both spiritual and scholastic, to fit them for the battles of life in which they must

For several years before the World War about 1,000,600 arrived annually. During the war there was a practical suspension, but by 1921 the y early total of immigrants had climbed to - 800,000. MISTORIC CHURCH IN PERIL. The ancient and historic Church of Sr. Francis, at Perugia, Italy, is threatened with collapse. The apse is to be demolished and will be rebuilt after the foundations have been strengthened. The very precious frescoes of the t welfth century which are in the c hurch will be taken down and put in a place of safety. SERMANY BANS "GODLESS EVENINGS." That the attacks of the atheists and Communists on religion and German culture were rousing the whole nation to resistance, Herr Joseph Wirtt, the German Minister of the Interior told vie Reichstag. Amid the derisive howls of the Socialist Deputies, the Minister who is a Catholic, declared: "As Minister of the Interior, responsible for public order. I will make an end of this miserable agitation for 'Godless evenings' by every means in my power." IPTORM BURSTS ON CHURCH. During the celebration of Mass in the Church of our Lady of the Angels in the Broux, New York. a sudden storm which swept over the city, killing seven people and causing much damage, stripped the roof off the church. Through the great gap, 60 feet long and 25 feet wide, a torrent of rain poured in, flooding and ruining the sanctuary. Two hundred children pretent at the Mass were panic tricken, hut were quietened by the parish priest, Father Kining, and got out in safety. A PRIEST'S HEROISM. The heroism of a Benedictine priest, is ministering at the it-Eminent risk of his life to two badly-injured men, one a non-Catholic, was one of many deeds of bravery which followed an acoident to a heavily-laden freight train on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at Washington. The men—a negro and a white man—were riding on a wagon loaded with several tons of metal piping, which suddenly shifted and crushed item beneath its weight. Whilst efforts were being made to extricate them, Father Michael, 0.5.13.. of the Catholic University at Washington, though the metal was again likely to move, made his way to the white man. a Catholic ex-soldier, and administered the Last Sacraments. Then the negro, a non-Catholic, asked for baptism, and the priest, whose own life was every moment in peril, stayed by him till he was lifted out two hours later. In the ambulance on the way to hospital Father Michael gave the coloured man c onditional baptism. A few hours after arrival at the hospital he died. PERSECUTION IN LITHUANIA. E xasperated by the strength of Catholic Action and by its failure to terrorise the various Catholic organisations, the Government of Lithuania has resorted to new methods of persecution. Whilst a group of Catholic students and members of Catholic associations were holding a Social Week at Kovno, the house in which were sleeping some eighty of their number, including the editors of two Catholic reviews, were raided by 70 ordinary police and 50 of the secret police at two &clock in the morning. The young men were subjected to three hours' conroinuous interrogation, on the termination of which M. Domasevicius, President of the Union of Catholic Colleges. and M. Masionis, a member of the committee of the Union, were arrested. On the following night, M. Domasevicius w as taken to the concentration camp at Varniai, where, it is announced, he is to he kept for six months. M. Masionis was sent to gaol for a year. Their offence—if any, other than of being Catholics—has not been stated. UNEMPLOYMENT IN ENGLAND.

The principal feature of the Association's proposals is the formation of rural communities consisting of families practising mixed farming on their own land. The Association is in touch with numbers of "landhungry" men, and is prepared to commence putting its scheme into execution as soon as it has sufficient land to settle one man. It appeals in particular for gifts of land, and of money for its purchase.

The design has been conceived in the spirit of the art of Rouen in the fifteenth century, in order that it may fit into the mediaeval t rame of the square, where the chapel will stand near the Hotel de la Couronne, the Ecu de France, and the reconstructed old Boucherie. Its outline will recall the church of Saint Sauveur, and its structure the lovely church of Saint Catherine in Honfleur. Its base will be of cut stone and flint, its upper portion of timber boards, its roof of old tiles, its porch of carved w ood."

Aunt Bessy's Corner DEAR NIECES AND NEPHEWS,— No matter in what street you walked to-day you were confronted by Girl Guides, Brownies, Scouts and Cubs. This is a great week for the Scouts, and they looked very business like and School holidays will soon be smart. Many of the a thing of the past. schools have had their annual visit from the inspector, and according to all reports have done very well. Remember, boys and girls, it is no one's fault but your own if you do not make A teacher can show steady progress. you, but if you are inattentive the teacher cannot drive learning into you in the same manner that you would drive a nail into wood. Too often the school and the teachers get blamed for what is really the fault of the children. Now, for the honour of your schools, study hard for the rest of the year. Blend sport and study in equal proportions, and then at the end of the year you will find that bodily health will be combined with educational progress. AUNT BESSY.

One of my little Cornerites asked me to print the answer to the following: "A snail climbs up a wall. It pulls itself up three feet every day, and slips back two feet every night. How long does it take to reach the top of the wall, which is thirty feet high?" The Here is the answer, Margaret: usual answer given is thirty days, and it is wrong. On the last day it climbed the three feet as usual, reached the top of the wall and completed the task. The answer, therefore, is twenty-eight days.

Fashion. One always seems to feel more enthusiastic about the earliest dances of the season than any other. Then the question of dress arises, and when there is only a limited amount to spend, this really becomes a problem. Last year's frock is shabby and out of date, and a new one cannot well be afforded. Here is a suggestion: Use last year's frock as a slip, and cover it with net or lace. Black lace is, of course, the finest stand-by for an evening dress, and looks equally well over flesh pink, or any other colour, though Iprefer black. Blonde lace is smart as well as becomThen there are pinks, greens, ing primrose, midnight blue, and hosts of other colours to choose from. Yes, indeed, if you want to make an economical dance frock, make it of lace. One of the newest notions is to dot it here and there with glittering beads. A lovely little lace frock could be made this way. Have the narrowest shoulders. and two shaped frills at the hem of the skirt. A narrow belt of the underdress material to form a belt and tie in a bow at the front, a second bow reposing in the centre of the top skirt A little sleeved coatee, with frill. double frills at hem and sleeves to match, could be worn or discarded just as the mood takes one. "When simplicity is beautiful, it is folly to be elaborate." and this might be applied A perfectly plain to dance frocks. frock often has an air of distinction about it, and in soft or heavy lace it will gain praise even from the most fastidiotts.

-: Death of a Notable Irish Priest :Protestants View Body in Church Father Samuel C,onnolly, parish priest for thirty-eight years of Leckpatrick, near Strabane, Co. Tyrone, who was regarded by his parishioners as a saint, died last March at the age of seventyeight, having been fifty-four years in the priesthood. He was said to have miraculous powers of curing diseases. One of the most notable Irish priests of the day, Father Connolly had what was called a miraculous cure twelve months ago, when he rose from a sick bed where he had lain for almost seven years. When the news of his recovery was made known, letters and telegrams of congratulation poured in and people began to arrive in large numbers, and from all areas to see "Father Sam," as he was familiarly known. His house became almost a place of pilSo dense were the crowds grimage. and so numerous the motor vehicles that crowded to his residence at Woodend, that the police were obliged to take control of the traffic for some months. A number of cures of invalids who visited Father Connolly at the time, were reported. Born at Carrdcenny. Ardstraw. the late Father Connolly served as curate at Omagh, Cranagh, and Castleclerg prior to his appointment as P.P. of Leckpatrick. In his earlier Years he

was a tower of strength to the Nationalist movement in North Tyrone, and was a great force in securing the reHe turn of the popular candidates. was, however, highly esteemed by all creeds and classes. This fact was demonstrated when, two years ago, the Orange leaders, who had arranged a demonstration at Woodend, changed the venue on learning that Father Connolly was ill. Four hours before his death, Mass was celebrated in Father Connolly's residence by his nephew, Father J. When the news reached O'Flaherty. Strabane, shops were shuttered and window-blinds drawn as a mark of respect. A procession two miles long followed the remains when they were being removed from the presbytery to the parish church, where they lay in state. The coffin was borne by relays of parishioners for a mile and a half. People climbed to the tops of trees and other points of vantage, and others carried away pieces of trees and shrubs from the residence of Father Connolly. Hundreds filed past the body after it had been placed in the church, Protestants as well as Catholics taking part in this tribute.

A Bigot Crushed in Ballymena The Chairman of the Ballymena Urban Council, Mr. Andrew Beggs, is an Orangeman, but when, recently, the Scottish anti-Popery lecturer, Alexander Ratcliffe, the "Modern John Knox," presented himself at the Town Hall to deliver himself of the story of "The Bachelor Priest with the Woman in the Confessional." he learned that there are Orangemen and Orangemen. The Dublin correspondent of the "Catholic Times" writes: "The meeting had been well advertised, but ony a handful of people turned up. It was not owing to the scarce attendance, however, that Mr. Ratcliffe was denied the pleasure of lecturing in Ballymena. Mr. He informed Beggs was the cause. Press representatives that a number of Catholic and Protestant citizens had interviewed him, and he had informed the organiser that the hall could not be used for a contentious meeting of the description of the "Modern John Knox's." Mr. Ratcliffe said he had given the same lecture in the largest halls in Scotland, and also in Belfast. and he failed to see why there should be any objection to its being delivered in what he might call a Protestant town in Protestant Ulster. He could not understand Mr. Beggs, who called himself a Protestant, objecting to a lecture which was WO P.C. Protestant. It is apparent that Mr. Beggs is of opinion that we have quite enough offensiveness in circulation. but Mr. Ratcliffe had his consolation. He was allowed to unburden himself under the auspices of the Y.M.C.A. in Belfast. Ballymena is honoured in its Orange chief citizen, but this is riot the first occasion on which it has come favourably into the limelight. It went through all the troubled days from 1912, through the Covenating of Carson.; through the Great War. the Black and Tan terror, and the pogrom period, up to 1913, without having to its discredit an injury to a single Catholic. The North of Ireland has good reason to be proud of Ballymena.

Immoral Press Peril An Appeal at Bunerana. Rev. I Agnew. CC,, preaching in Buncrana. said that their faith was being assailed in a more dangerous, because a more insidious, form than ever before through the imported English papers, with their immorality and irreligion. Those papers were spreading their contamination everywhere they went. He appealed to the congregation to make a resolution never to allow any of those papers to cross the threshold of their homes. They had ample reading matter, Catholic and National papers, published in their own country, to satisfy all their requirements. The Galway Chamber of Cornmerce have decided to discontinue taking the "Daily Mail." , Following an appeal by the clergy. St. Patrick's Day was, at Micileton, made a day of reparation for the blasphemy in the "Daily Mail." Thousands of men and women received Holy Communion.

Notable Centenarian Mr. James Tierney, father of the Right Rev. Monsignor Tierney, P.P., V.0.. . Enniskillen, died at his residence, Drumraine. Newtonbutler, after a brief illness. In May last. Mr. Tierney celebrated his 100th. birthday. Ile was one of the most progressive farmers in the disdtrict and last year he laid out portion of his farm under the intensive system of grassland management. On the occasion of his centenary he received a letter from Lord Melchett, Chairman of the Imperial Chemical Industries. Ltd., congratulating him upon his record and on the fact that he was still young enough to adopt modern methods in the management of his farm. Lord Melchett also presented him with a walking-stick suitably inscribed. All his life Mr. Tierney was a sterling Nationalist, and in 1879 was a prominent member of the Land League. For many years he was a member of the Fermanagh Co. Council and the Lisnaskea R.D.C. Despite his great age he retained all his mental faculties unimpaired up till a few days before his death, and was as vigorous and cheerful as a man of 60. Some months ago, on a bitterly cold day, when a friend remarked to him that he should not be out without an overcoat. he replied that he did not feel a bit cold and said the great mistake people made nowadays was in "wrapping themselves up with too much clothes, as it made them unable to stand a breath of air." For 60 years he had visited Honduran every year. Many messages of sympathy have been received by Monsignor Tierney.

"The Irish Bishop"

'I believe I am known here in England and elsewhere as 'the Irish Bishop.' I am glad of it, for I was Irish before I was a Bishop. I was an Irishman before I was a priest or a Bishop, and I hope the Irish part of my character has rendered none the less effective my priesthood and my episcopacy." This declaration was made by the Right Rev. Dr. Cotter. Bishop of Portsmouth. responding to the toast of his health at the annual dinner of the Portsmouth Council of the Knights of St. Columba. whose good work he commended. The Bishop added that the Irish were proving themselves a great and powerful race: they had shown that they could take their place in the front rank of the nations. Ireland was going ahead, and unity, prosperity and peace would soon be hers. Site had her native language, her dances, and songs: her poetry was amongst the greatest Ireland had given the lead to all the nations. His Lordship attained the twenty-sixth an. niversary of his consecration on March 19th Jut say— "/ saw your ad. in 'The Record.'"

Wallace, The Irish Composer William Vincent Wallace, famous m usical-composer, was born in Waterlord, on March 11, 1812, although some authors state that the date of his birth was June 1, 1814. At an early age he evinced musical talents, and before he was 18 had held the situations of organist of Thurles Cathedral, and violinist in the Theatre Royal, Dublin, and conducted concerts in the same city. Advised to take a sea voyage on account of weak eyes, he left Dublin about 1833, went to Australia, and for a lengthened period laid music aside, and led an adventurous and chequered life in the bush. Accident at last brought him to Sydney, and within reach of good music. The dormant taste re-asserted itsel, and he resumed the bow, and gave concerts— first in Australia, and afterwards in India, South America, Mexico, and the United States. At New York, about 1844, he married Miss Helen Stepel, a pianist. His own performance was only a little less excellent on the pianoforte than on the violin, and as a concert giver and music director he was in much repute." In 1845 he went to London, and turned his attention to composition. He died on October 12, 1865, at the Chateau de Bagen, Haute Garonne, France. His remains were interred in Kinsal Green Cemetery, London.

A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT

No words can express the joy and whole -hearted happiness of the Irish girls in pilgrimage at Lourdes this Easter, writes a correspondent of the "Irish Catholic: Glorious Summer weather blessed their entire visit, not only to Lourdes, but also to Lisieux and Rouen, which places they visited on their way home. As usual year the French did all they possibly could to show how very pleased the' were to have the Irish girls with them again on this their third girls' pilgrimage to Lourdes. On the first day they asked the Irish girls to lead the procession, and it was a very beautiful sight to see the Free State flag carried aloft by one of the girls, the others following carrying beautiful banners, while the girls, all wearing white veils over their different school uniforms, walked at each side singing the "Adore Thee" and the "Pange Lingua." Monsignor Girlier. Bishop of Tarbes and Lourdes, very kindly gave the first audience of this year to the Irish girls' pilgrimage. He welcomed them to Lourdes in most touching words, telling them how very glad he was to see them all. knowing well the great bond that existed always between the French and the Irish an' the great love the Irish had for Our Lady of Lourdes. He said how much he was looking forward to coming t., the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin next year, wnen he hoped to see them all again. In conclusion the youngest pilgrim, aged seven, presented his lordship with an offering subscribed

Out of the Metal-Pot To safeguard the living standard o the masses was the great concern of Pope Leo XIII., in his great EncycliThis great cal, "Rerum Noyarum." Pontiff put very clearly and firmly the attitude of the Church towards the Labour movement, which was then beginning to shape itself along detinite He laid down prinpolitical lines. ciples that serve as a guide to Catholics in their relations with labour. "The The labourer is worthy of his hire." Encyclical declares that his labour shall not be sweated—that he is entitled to a living wage and just conLeo sideration by his employer. ICH'. laid down the principles that should stand as factors in the conduct of master and servant, one to another. It is ,in this connection, interesting to read that in an interview given by M. I. E. Lubinoff (Chairman of the Soviet delegation at the Wheat Conference l to the "Manchester Guardian," the dictum of the workingman's Pope has been adopted by the Soviet spokesHe says: "A solution of the man. problem of the distribution of the wheat harvest must not lead to the lowering of the living standards of the masses." M. Lubinolls statement implies that the Soviet authorities are concerned in the living standard of the Russian toiler. Now, unless the Russian Government is being cruelly sianvisitors to Russia, and critics dvd of the condition of the masses under Soviet rule, M. Lubinoff's words are merely used for public consumption. The dumping of Russian wheat into England at prices below the level of profitable production in this country, puts a strange complexion on the sincerity of his declaration. It is common report, and the report has been supported by honest testimony, that the condition of labour in Russia is little more advanced than slave-labour. Russian butter sold at less than 2s. in England cost approximately six times as much in Russia. The Russian workWomen work in man is still a serf. the mines, do men's work on the roads, in fields, and factories, and do all classes of hard labour. There is not in Russia those living standards that are recognised as the rights of labour in this country. The new fonns of collective farming referred to by M. Lubinoff will not, when compared with the farming of free labour in other countries, cut much ice. The competition between the Russian product and the European one is not fair competition, for the reason that the living standard of the masses in Europe is higher, and because the labour of Russia is mostly, if not entirely, forced labour. If our Western civilisation and culture are to continue, Russian ideals and ethics will have to be brought to Tine with the standards of European ,peoples. The social conditions of the Russian worker has not impressed the intelligence of those visitors to Russia who had the genius to form their own conceptions and observations, unhelped by Soviet whisperers, and the time is certainly remote when the people of the British Empire will forsake their White Man's standards for Asiatic ones The time is becoming rotten ripe for a revision of Empire policy and a restatement of Imperial ideals. -By their works ye shall know them." There cannot be the slightest doubt in reasoning minds that the anarchic elements that have operated. and are still operating, in the destruction of social order in Spain are Moscow-bred. The following extracts from the "A.B.C.' of Communism." an official S ,viet publication, throws a sidelight on the infamous orgies of the mob who have made havoc in the great Cathedrals and churches of Spain. Allowing for the hysteria that usually occurs after such an event such as the One that ended the reign of the King of Spain, one may see, without extraordinary eye-strain the Moscow machine at work. The war on religion is a sure and certain sign of the Bolshevik Beast at play. The Beast's philosophy is: "Religion and Communism are incompatible, both theoretically and practically. Many of the old' generation persist in demanding that religion should still be taught in the schools as an optional subject. The Communist Party fights r esolutely against all such attempts to turn back. What has already been done to t hrow off the yoke of religion is all ton little. for it still remains within the wer of ignorant parents to cripple

One of the most important tasks of the proletarian State is to liberate children from the reactionary influence exercised by their parents. The transition from Socialism to Communism, the transition from the society which makes an end of capitalism to the society which is completely freed from all traces of class division and class struggle, will bring about the natural death of all religion and all superstition.

Hoyts Capitol, Perth -The Big House," Sensational Prison Sic, Enters Its Second Week at the Capitol To-Day (Saturday). A compelling and extremely moving narrative of the effects of prison environment on a young boy is told in "The Big House," which, after eclipsing all previous records, enters its second week at the Capitol Theatre to-day (Sat,,rdayl. Life on the "inside" in a great penitentiary is echoed, in thrills. sensations, grim episodes, comedy and heart throbs, in this adaptation of Jack Tait's book by the same name. Stark realism, and men in the raw, are contrasted with home life and a love romance in the vivid story. There is a great prison riot, with a thousand men, quelled by machine guns and army tanks: there is a pathetic story of thf friendship of two convicts, and the regeneration of one by love, and the s tartling spectacle of a boy first offend'"' thrown into the company of hardened criminals until he becomes worse even than they. Chester Morris, Wallace Beery. and Robert Montgomery play the central male roles, as three cell mates about whom the riot, hate, and ferment revolves. Leila Hyams plays the heroine, and is clever and beautiful. Claire McDowell and J. C. Nugent play "home folks" as her parents. Lewis Stone is a compelling figure as the prison warden. and De Witt Jennings plays the Karl Dane heads gruff yard captain a group of comedians, who furnish comedy relief in the picture. Important factors in its realism are the technical exects in the picture: the new recording by which for the first time actual machine gun fire was reproduced, and the vivid photography. with strange and ,striking light effect by Harold Wenstrom. Among other clever players in the cast are Mathew Betz. as "The Hawk." Robert Emmett O'Connor as the detective, Tom Wilson, Eddie Foyer, Rosen Ates, Fletcher Norton. and Tom Kennedy. The most effective scenes are in the prison yard. in a replica of a complete prison .as a thousand convicts scatter to cover under withering machine-gun fire, and the riot in the mess hall. Supporting "The Big House" are a number of featurettes, including another Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer "Kiddies' Revue."

TALKI 'fates the story of a group of youthful flyers in the Royal Flying Corps. The t ime is 1915. and the situation concerns t hese inexperienced youths taken from school, placed in antiquated planes, and sent up to almost certain death against better equipped and more experienced German aces. It is a new phase of war and a new story. The production is excellently mounted, and teems with tense situations, powerful dialogue, fine character studies, and thrilling actions in battles on ground and air. Howard Hawkes, himself a flyer, has directed it with skill, and given a strong interpretation to the John Monk Saunders original story. MAYLANDS.

The Question Box Q uestions about the doctrine and practice of the Church will be answered in this section weekInquirers are to be as brief ly and clear as possible. Resurrection of the Body. The do,itrine of the Resurrection of the body implies that on the day of General Judgment all men will rise with the same bodies as they had in this life. This means a special act or miracle on the part of God, but there is no difficulty in believing that God, who created man, can cause him to rise again. This doctrine of bodily resurrection rests principally on Divine Revelation. although even man's own reason can show the suitability of the Man is both soul and resurrection. body; the body belongs essentially to nn's nature, and, therefore, we can exi pect that the body will share in man's ultimate and complete perfection in heaven. _ Bishop's Crozier. The Crozier is an ornamental staff in the shape of a shepherd's crook, conferred on Bishops, mitred Abbots, and certain other prelates. It is made of metal, plated with gold or silver, or of The crook elaborately carved wood. signifies that the Bishop is to care for his flock: the pointed lower end, that he should goad on the careless; and the tall shaft that he should support the In Christian art, as the emweak. blem of a saint, it signifies that he was a Bishop or an Abbot. Brother Joseph, Brother Joseph Dutten, of whom mention has been made recently in the .papers. and who died in Honolulu in March, was the assistant and successor in the Molokai leper settlement of Father Damien. He was a convert to the Faith. having been previously a captain in the American Army, and an official in the War Department. After his reception into the Church. and a two years' sojourn in a Trappist Monastery, he made his way to Molokai and joined Father Damien. Three years later Father Damien died, and Brother Joseph became the head of the leper settlement where he remained for forty years until his death.

BOXING Patrons had no reason to complain about the boxing staged by Ben Martin at the Unity Stadium last Friday. The six contests were 411 full of pep, and augur well for the success of the remaining exhibitions this season. Jim Doran (10.2) forced the pace all the way with Frank Mannington (10.0), and won on a K.O. early in the third round. Ted Baxter (8.2) and Nipper James (82) gave a good exhibition over four rounds, the honours going to the former. There was little between Hec Walsh (8.6) and George Nelson (8.4) for the first three rounds. Nelson then adopted aggression as his style to run away and win. Bluey Miller and Lew Franks, both 10 stone, indulged in four rounds of A feature of the ',lather-and-whack. contest was the number of times each man went on the mat. Miller did so rive times and Franks twice. The latter was adjudged the winner. Red Meyer (112) won on a technical ICO. from Alf Thomas (11.1). He always held the lead, and caused his opponent's towel to be skied in the third round. The best bout of the evening was of six rounds, between Jimmy Wilde (7.10) and Snowy Clarke (7.10). The latter was more aggressive and piled up points early, and again in the last round, to win Wilde fought very gamely to the last. The principal contest was between the heavyweight Charlie Buck (12.2) and George Bell (12.5L It was a good fight, with very little between the contestAnts. Bell used his straight left well, and this gained for him the victory over his older opponent. Dick Cullen was a splendid referee. Harry Pearce, ex-lightweight and welterweight champion of Victoria, is being brought across to W.A. to fight Danny Ryan, middleweight champion of the State. Owing to Pearce's not having the necessa-e residential qualification, the title will net be at stake.

Broome RECEPTION OF THREE SISTERS OF ST. JOHN OF GOD. On Sunday, April 26, the Feast of Our Lady of Good Counsel, a very impressive ceremony took place in the parish church. Broome, when the Right Rev. Monsignor Otto Raible, P.S.M., PA.. Administrator Apostolic of the Vicariate of Kimberley, assisted be Rev. Father Worms, P.S.M., P.R. and Rev. Father McGovern, of Manly, conferred the holy habit on three postulants. The church was packed with a devout and interested congregation. The ceremony began with a procession of the religious bearing lighted candles: the hymn "0 Gloriosa Virginum' was sung by the nuns' choir as After the they entered the church. blessing of the candles, Monsignor Raible preached an appropriate sermon. He said that many persons could not understand why young girls, who could have lived in comfort and amusement, should leave their parents, friends, and home, and travel thousands of miles to serve the blacks—the least and lowest of all Christ's brethren—and the novices would give them an explanation of their reasons, when, in a few minutes, standing before the altar of the living God, they would declare: "The empire of the world and all the grandeur of this earth. I have devised for love of Our Lord Jesus Christ. whom I have seen. whom I have loved, in whom I have believed, and towards whom my heart inclineth." There was the reason—for the love of Jesus Christ they had left everything and had come gladly and willingly, to devote their lives to the blacks, whom nobody wanted. In return, he could promise them in the name of Almighty God, that if they were faithful to that intention, they should be of the number of those 144 thousand of whom St. John spoke in the Apocalypse, who would sing a canticle, that no other man can sing, and follow the Lamb whethcrsoever He goeth. The Right Rev. Monsignor then blessed the habits, veils, cinctures, and church cloaks. After the clothing, the novices, prostrated during the singing The of the Veni Creator Spiritus. ceremony closed with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The crowded congregation, which followed the ceremony with the closest interest, was truly cospomolitan in character. It included Australian. Irish, English. Scotch, German, Chinese, Japanese, Malay. Cingalese. Philippino, and West Indian, but the great majority of those present were blacks and half-castes. The three young girls who had the happiness of donning the livery of Christ were: Miss B. Watts. NS.W ., in religion Sister M. Antonia: Miss T. Yfounteney, Melbourne. in religion Sister M. Therese: Miss G McAllen, Melbourne. in religion Sister M. Bernardine. When commenting on the ceremony of reception„ the Right Rev. Monsignor Raible said: "If I say, they are a happy crowd, it will be but half true. They arc happy, but they are not yet a And still, we need many more crowd Australian girls. who will give themselves entirely to the service of God in the Aborigines Mission, for whatever we do to the least of Christ's brethren, Those willing to we do to Himself. volunteer for the Aborigines Mission in Kimberley may forward an application to Rev Mother, The Convent, Broome.

MAY 23. li )31.

The Working Man's Charter During the month of May the fortieth anniversary of the issue of the famous Encyclical, "Rerum Novarum," by Pope Leo XIII., was celebrated at Rome. More than 15 countries sent delegates to Rome for the occasion. Thirty-eight groups from ditTerent nations represented the workers and employers of the Argentine, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czecho-Slovakia. France, Germany, England, Ireland, Holland, Poland, Rumania, Switzerland, Hungary, and the U.S.A. His Holiness the Pope made a pronouncement worthy of the great occasion. The Pope of Catholic Action, reviewing the history of labour during the past 40 years, calls upon young and old to join in making Catholic Action exert its due and proportionate influence on the minds of men. His Eminence, Cardinal Bourne, re-echoes, in his Easter sermon, the voice of Peter, and appeals not only to men and women in their twenties, but also to boys and girls still in their 'teens, who have just left school. Every Catholic, young and old, is urged to join one or other of the Catholic societies, and to take an active part in the immense amount of work which the Catholic Church is called upon to do in this country at the present time. On May 15, 1891, Pope Leo XIII., looking out upon the conditions, social and economic, of the world that lay before him, issued an encyclical, "Rerum Novarum," "On the Condition of the Working Classes," which has since been hailed as the working man's charter. The Pope did not merely comment upon the then conditions, but laid down principles which, if translated into practice, would have solved the industrial problems of the age. • He went to the root of things, traced back the evils of his day to their sources, and applied himself to closing up these well-springs of dissatisfaction and discontent. How many of our labour leaders have read and studied that historic document? How many followers of the Labour Party have asked themselves the question— What message has the Catholic Church for the labourer? We know the disdain that men assembled in workshop or store, in factory or office, greet such a question with. Yet, Europe was set thinking in 1891, when a Pope declared himself the champion of a living wage for the labourer, and an honest day's work for the employer. Labourites should pause in their sweeping allegations against the Church until they have read those words, and realised that the Church stands for a just outlook in labour and capital. • • In his Encyclical, Pope Leo XIII. lays down principles that will solve the pressing problems of the hour. if we are wise enough to apply them. In his eyes, class must help class, the rich must help the poor, the poor must accept their lot, and a living wage belongs to every citizen. Enmities, bitterness, and class-wars are to cease. "The great mistake made in regard to the matter now under consideration, is to take up with the notion that class is naturally hostile to class, and that the wealthy and the workingmen are intended by nature to live in mutual conflict. So irrational and so false is this view, that the direct contrary is the truth. Just as the symmetry of the human frame is the resultant of the disposition of the bodily members, so in a State is it ordained by nature that these two classes should dwell in harmony and agreement. and should, as it were, groove into one another, so as to maintain the balance of the body politic. Each needs the other; Capital cannot do without Labour. nor Labour without Capital. Mutual agreement results in pleasantness of life and the beauty of good order; while perpetual conflict necessarily produces confusion and savage barbarity."—Leo XIII., in "Rerum Novarum." How adequately those words fit our present situation!

In that atmosphere of recollection, the Conductor, in a heartto-heart manner, reminds them of their duties in life, the remedies that must be used to regain the friendship of God, if. unfortunately, it be lost, the gleans that must be adopted to secure anal perseverance, and Heaven when this life is over. All classes of men, no matter how good or how careless they are, may profit by the Retreat. It enables the good to become better. It stretches out a helping hand to the weak and erring, who wish to make a new start in life. A nd if that hand be firmly grasped, it will rescue them from danger and place them securely on the path to Heaven. All intending to make the Retreat should as soon as possible notify either Very Rev. Father Rector, The Monastery, North Perth, or Mr. Joseph Edwards, Warwick House, St. George's Terrace. Title of "Excellency" For Bishops Not to be Used. announced Cardinal Bourne has that the Hierarchy decided at their Low Week meeting that when Archbishops and Bishops are addressed or referred to in English, the forms of address in traditional use in England shall be maintained—"His Grace" for an Archbishop, and "Your Lordship" for a Bishop: but that "if you are addressing a Bishop in Rome, in Italian, you will say 'Eccellenza' "—the title recently conferred by the Holy Father upon all Bishops. The object of conferring the title "Excellency' was manifestly to give Bishops on the Continent a distinctive title of honour, which they had not previously enjoyed. The English usage had already provided this, in even more distinctive form, so that the title "Excellency" is only needed abroad, where, of course, as the Cardinal Archbishop says, it will be used. The Australian Hierarchy have made no pronouncement on the adoption of We presume the new title to date. that the use of the accustomed titles of "Your Grace," etc., is permissible. • • • Dublin's New Bishop. Special interest attaches to the consecration on May 26 of Mgr. Wall, V.G., as atodliarf Bishop for Dublin. from the fact that the consecrating prelate will be His Excellency the Papal Nuncio, Most Rey. Dr. Paschal Robinson. The consecration will take place in the Pro-Cathedral. The new Bishop will continue to discharge the office of parish priest of St Marc's, Harldingtonroad. Holy rather and the Dublin Congress. The Holy Father received recently in private audience the Archbishop of Dublin, and discussed with him at some length the plans for the Eucharistic Congress next year. In this connection it is generally expected in Rome that the Holy Father will choose as his Legate His Eminence Cardinal Cerretti, but nothing is yet definitely settled.

From the Vatican City State India's New Apostolic Delegate. The Most Rev. Leo Kierkels, General of the Passionist Congregation, who was recently nominated Tpostohe Delegate to British India, and titular Archbishop of Salamina, was consecrated at the Passionist Church in Rome by Cardinal Rossum---the Dutch Cardinal--un Sunday, April 26, Father K ierkels is just forty-eight years ot age. He was born at Baexem, a yip lage near Roermund in the province of Limburg (Holland), and educated at the Passionist School at Doornik in Belgium. He received the Passionist habit in 1898. and took the vows in May the following year, that is before he was 1' years old. As the Passionists had no monastery in Holland, he had to undertake military duties during part of the time he was a student for the priesthood ,and, as part of such duties, took part in the suppression Of riots connected with the railway strike of 1963. Be was elected General of the Order—the fifteenth successor of St. Paul of the Cross—in 1925, being the first who was not of Italian nationality to occupy this high position. It is expected he will preside at the General Chapel of the Congregation early in May, and will on that occasion make his farewell before leaving to take up his work in India. Pontifical Academy. The Pontifical Academy of Sciences r ecently held an Academic Week in Rome. On each (lay of the week a c onference was given at the Gregorian University by members of the AmrirmY. Professor Lombardi devoted

Cardinals Ehrle and Laurtnti were present at some of the discourses. The Academic Week was brought to a conclusion when a meeting was held in the presence or the Pope in the Gasina ox Pius IV. in the Vatican Gardens. Singers in Audience. Two groups of boy singers had the honour of performing in the presence of the Pope recently. The first came from the Cathedral of Lucerne, and was accompanied by the Master of the Choir and some priests. The second group of sixteen singers came from Vienna, and is a continuation of the choir that formerly sang in the Imperial Palace Chapel at Vienna. Both groups of singers were greatly praised by the Holy Father, who takes a deep interest in choral singing. A Capuchin Beatus. The General of the Capuchins has presented to the Holy Father a large painting of the Blessed Francis, of Camporosso, who was raised to the honours of the altar in 1929. The General, who was accompanied by the members of the Curia and the painter Pietro Dodero, made the offering in the name of his Order, - and thanked the Pope for haying given to the Capuchins yet another Beatus. The picture of the Blessed represents him in prayer before the Crucifix offering himself as a victim to stay the plague which was. devastating the city of The heroic offering Genoa in 1866. was accepted, and a few days later the holy Capuchin passed to his reward and the plague ceased in the city. Keeper at the Tiara. A little-known functionary of the Papal Court, the keeper of the Papal Tiara, died recently in his ninetieth year. The keeper of the triple crown of the Pope has the right to assist at the solemn Papal Masses and at the pontifical offices celebrated in the presence of the Holy Father by the Cardinals. Ile carried the Tiara a few paces in front of the Sedia Gestatoria in solemn papal processions at the great functions in St. Peter's in the Sistine Chapel. The keeper of the Tiara belongs to the secular court of the Pope. as the Tiara is not a liturgical ornament, like the mitre The Holy Father exchanges the Tiara at the beginning of the pontifical functions for the mitre, and resumes it again at the end of the function when he The mounts the Sedia Gestatoria. Tiara, which is the symbol of the triple crown of the papacy, was mentioned for the first time in the time of Pope Constantine the First. 1708-1715. The name Tiara was first used in the biograph of Pope Paschal TI (10991118). The Tiara which Pope Pius XI. generally wears is a present from the dioceses of his former archbishopric. Milan.

The distribution of the series of Vatican City coins commemorative of the signing of the Lateran Treaty in 1929 began on April IS. The complete series will cost 220 lire (approximately 46s.), and a further charge of 7.06 lire will be made for postage abroad, including the cost of the case containing the The Vatican authorities will, coins. however, only begin posting the coins ordered by foreign collectors on April 25. The Governor of the Vatican City reserves to himself the right of refusing any order, and not more than two series will be sold to the same person His Holiness, it is stated, will present sets of the new coins to the rulers and heads of Governments which have diplomatic relations with the Holy See. In the "Times" there appeared a Icing telegram from Rome. which concluded as follows: "With the disappearance first of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and now of the Bourbons in Spain. the Holy See must inevitably come to lean still more upon the Monarchy and Government in Italy, which is now the only Roman Catholic The Great Power under a King." adumbration attempted in the above lines is wholly without substance, and has been projected from a mind m ap-

St. Vincent de Paul's Poor The Charity Concert organised by the C.T.A. to aid the funds of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, and incidentally the poor of this city, whose appeals are often unsatisfied because of an empty treasury, will take place in the Perth Town Hall to-morrow (Sunday) evening at 8.45. The programme is an excellent one, and wellknown artists are contributing the items. We hope that a crowded house will be an acknowledgment of the generosity of the C.T.A. in coming to the assistance of this very deserving charitable society. Save a shilling for this special call upon your charity. It will come back again with added value. preciative of the Sovereign Pontiff' ideas and policy. It was precisely because the Papacy must be absolutel independent of Italy or any other State that the Roman Question remained open for sixty years. The Catholic Church does not teach that Monarchy, as such, is good and that Republicanism, as such, is had. There can be, and have been, anti-Christian Kings on the one hand and godly Pre-:idents on the other. AS far back as the days of Leo XIII. it was made plain that there is no necessary incompatibility between the Catholic Church and, for example, the Third Republic in France.

England and Spain The latest "Tablet." commenting editorialy on the Spanish question, says some pertinent things that our readers should bear in mind when startling cables appear. " We write these lines on Wednesday evening At a desk heaped with inexact news and comments cut from the pages of our secular contemporaries. A member of 'The Tablet's' own staff is in Spain; but there appears to be a difficulty in transmitting messages which are not anti-Monarchist, and therefore we must postpone until next week our detailed remarks on this week's events. Three warnings, however, must be given here and now. First, London publicists too readily assumed that Alfonso XIII. had definitely renounced the Spanish Throne. What the King has done is to withdraw from Spain, so that the Repub. licans (who have captured the big cities, just as our own Left captured Sheffield and Glasgow I can proceed to a General Election for the Cones. We might say some strong things about the indecent haste with which the newspapers extracted scores of thousands of extra pennies by trumpeting an abdication which has not taken place. As their chief argument against the Monarch was his putting off of parliamentary elections. Miguel Meura and his colleagues cannot decently evade an early consultation of the people. Further. the local elections which have given the Republicans their urban triumphs. were not corruptly "made- by the Government, but were honestly conducted: and the Republicans must either maintain this new standard of electoral honesty. or wholly lose their moral authority. the Now that apathetic Monarchists (who resemble our own apathetic Moderates in local elections) have had a smashing nu-prise and a cruel lesson, an honest referendum may expose last Tuesday's e vents as an undemocratic usurpation: in which event. the de lure King of Spain may soon become once more a Sovereign de facto. Second. we repeat the solemn words we have often written concerning the Communist element in Spanish revolutionary movements. Ignorant or dishonest English speakers and writers. both on the wireless and off it, have been rebuked by "The Tablet" for deming the existence and activity of Communist forces in Spanish Republcanisrn: and there can no longer be the slightest doubt that we were right and they were wrong. Out-and-out "Reds" have been prominent in the "Maffick. Mg.' so lovingly described by certain English Correspondents in Madrid, and it is beyond dispute that Communism is formidable both in Barcelona and the capital. "The Tablet' begs those Britons who are gloating over the Republic's advent and the King's departure to ask themselves whether they are behaving as good Christians and loyal Monarchists when they scream out greetings to the men who are setting urban above rural Spain. on the strength of one day's polling in abnormal circumstances. Such tad Britons ought to remember that violent changes in national institutions have

ELEVEN their repercussions, and that only five hundred miles separates England from Spain. Our third point is quickly made Speaking generally, the Catholic Church acquiesces in all legitimate forms of government, and is equally willing to work with an Emperor. a King. a Regent or a President. But the Republic proclaimed in Spain is not yet accredited by a clear expression of the Spanish nation's will, and therefore the true democrat just now is he who waits till Spain has spoken. Such men as her muleteers and vine' dressers, her tenders of olive trees and orange-groves, her wheat-growers and farm-labourers and fishermen are true sons of Spain, not less worthy and shrewd than her townsfolk, and they must have their say. And so must Spain's women, to whom the maligned Primo de Rivera gave votes which his detractors have taken away. A Revolution deriving more from the idlers in cafes than from the winners of wealth from Mother Earth, and paving more heed to those older school-boys called "students" than to wives and mothers with a solid experience of life, may give Europe a second Russia. but it will not bring prosperity and peace tc Spain.'

News and Notes An interesting model debate will be broadcasted from Station 6WF. at 9.15 p.m. on Wednesday, May 27. The Debating League have selected Messrs. F. Murphy, C. Dudley, T. Hartrey, and C. Neville to debate whether "All War Debts Should be Cancelled." Anyone interested in debating should rind this model debate of great value, as the four selected speakers are recognised as being Perth's best. * "Fra juniper" writes in "The Universe": "A friend of his was one of the most hard-worked and most popular curates in the Dublin slums, whose parishioners always sent for him when they were afraid of death. A poor old woman was dying and insisted that the priest must come to her at once. He went and administered the Last Sacraments, as she lay in the bundle A rags which was the whole furniture of her room. Realising how over-worked the priest was, she felt overcome with gratitude and announced, rather to his astonishment. that she wished to leave him all that she possessed of any value. The legacy was a tip for the impending Grand National. Tom Kettle met the priest soon afterwards and was toll the story.

Notes on the Mining Industry in Western Australia The following reports from out stations regarding mining activities have been received at the Mines Department, and made available for publication by the Minister for Mines, Hon. 1 Scaddan, M.LA.:

oi tin ore were treated at the State Tin Dressing Plants, and returned by Black Tin £93,755.59, and by residue treatment £57232. The total value of the output from the system is therefore £6,407,506.93.

School of Church Music to be Founded in Liverpool Yilgarn Goldfield: The Mining Regis-

trar at Southern Cross writes in connection with Prospecting Area 1990, held by Mr. J. T. Pearce, that he had been shown numerous samples of ore containing coarse gold from this find four or five chains south of the Palace Hotel, and east of the old Frasers workings at Southern Cross. Gold was both fine and coarse, the latter predominating, while large pieces of coarse gold protruded from the stone and could be taced through the samples to large protrusions on the other side. The find should rank as. the finest in Southern Cross for some years. Mr. Pearce found the reef, which is thought to be a quartz reef, about five feet below the surface. It was then 7in. wide, but at a depth of six feet it is now 15in, wide, and the length so far discovered is 12 to 14 feet. About a ton of stone has been bagged, but it is quite impossible to guess the probable gold content. Pieces of free gold vary from 5cwts. downwards. There is a large "buck" reef adjacent to the reef containing the gold, the latter being on the footwall, and the find is said to be similar in appearance to Baylev's "Cockshot" lease. The workings at six feet continue to povide stone of the 'same quality as first samples, and all who have seen these consider it the richest find in the history of Yilgarn for over twenty years.

Archbishop Downey announces in the "Cathedral Record" that he intends to found the Liverpool Archdiooesan School of Music, under the patronage of St. Gregory and St. Cecilia, "to provide for the training of choirmasters and organists who will be thoroughly equipper for their work and imbued with a true sense of fitting liturgical music." His Grace is entrusting the organisation and direction of the school to Dom M. D. Willson, O.S.B., of St. Anne's Priory, Edge-hill, Liverpool. A prospectus giving the courses and personnel will soon be published, and His Grace has secured the co-operation of Dr. Arthur Pollitt, F.R.C.O., Lecturer in Music at the University of Liverpool. "The courses," says the Archbishop, will lead to the granting of a diploma after a thorough training lasting three years. Arrangements will be made for lectures on such subjects as Liturgy and History of Music; also for recitals and choral demonstrations, and for giving advice and assistance in the t raining of choirs. "It is hoped to carry out the main courses of training for the very moderate slim of £20 a year. I trust that generous benefactors will come forward to provide scholarships, and to assist generally the work of the School, and that parishes will make provision for their choirmaster, choirmistress, or organist to profit by the school. "It is obvious,- continues His Grace, "that the success of the undertaking will depend in greatest measure on the cordial co-operation of the parish priest in the diocese, and for tnis I make an earnest appeal, urging them to realise t he advantages that are offered, and asking them to encourage and assist those in charge of choirs to join the school, so that future appointments may be made from amongst those who hold the diploma. it will be deplorable if those who take the courses of training should be left without employment owing to any apathy on the part of the clergy. "The regular .courses will begin in the early autumn, and the headquarters of the school will be at the Cathedral Buildings. Brownlow-hill, where it is hoped to gather together a library of

standard works bearing on Church music in all its aspects." "It is essential," says the Archbishop, "that by the time we are able to use part of the new Cathedral we shall begin by carrying out the liturgy and the music of the Church as perfectly as possible." After saying that he is "delighted to find the growing interest among our people in the whole liturgical movement, and especially to know that in many of the schools good progress is being made in the teaching of Plainsong," His Grace adds: "There seems to be a false idea in some quarters that I would like to do away with all other music than Plainsong. This is quite a misapprehension. I would not set a narrower standard than that advocated by Pope Pius X. in his famous Motu proprio on Church music. He praises the school of 'classic polyphony and encourages the use of its works, and he proceeds: " 'The Church has always recognised and encouraged all progress in the arts, and has always admitted to the service of her functions whatever is good and beautiful in their development during different centuries, as long as it does not offend against the laws of her liturgy. Hence more modern music may also be allowed in churches, since it has produced compositions good and serious and dignified enough to be worthy of liturgical use. Nevertheless, since modern music has become chiefly a secular art, greater care must be taken, when admitting it, that nothing profane be allowed, nothing that has reminiscences of theatrical pieces, nothing based in its form on the style of secular compositions.'

AID ST. JOHN OF GOD HOSPITAL

Bebe Daniels in "Lawful Larceny" For Regent This (Saturday) Evening.

In these times of acute stress, it is a most pleasurable duty to once again record the consistent generosity of that noble band of charitable workers, known as the Railway and Tramway Year after year this Hospital Fund. organisation has contributed amounts to our local hospitals, which in the past eight years have exceeded £30,000. Their hospital scheme is most comprehensive, and it would be fitting for other organisations to take a leaf out of their book. On Tuesday evening, the executive committee of the organisation and their friends were the guests of the Rev. Mother of St. John of God Hospital, Subiaco, and as was to be expected, a most .pleasant evening was the result. The President of the fund, Mr. J. J. Harris, presided over the happy gathering. and was most generous in his praise of the good work of the Sisters. He maintained that their Subiaco hospital had no superior in Australia, and he heartily. congratulated the Sisters on the high standard of efficiency that they had attained. "This institution," concluded Mr. Harris. "is not a hospital: it is the finest home from home 1 could ever recommend." T he genial Secretary of the fund. Mr. Chas. J. Lewis, in a most interesting oration, traced the evolution of the fond over the peat thirty Years. At that time their fund was 1",80 strong, whilst during the year just concluded over £4,000 had passed through their hands. He informed the Rev. Mother that his organisation had received nothing but praise from his members of the treatment at the hospital, and Me congratulated the Sisters on the optimistic spirit they displayed by the erection of the new wing. He promised every assistance in the future from his organisation. Mt. Geo. Robertson added further eulogies. and expressed disappointment at the Government's action in banning their annual consultation, which permitted them to assist such worthy causes as this hospital. He was, however. optimistic of hearing that the ban would be lifted in at least their case. Other appropriate speeches came from Messrs. W R Palmer. H. P. Joyce, J. Hand. F Canning, G. Coultas. and A. Lennard. During the evening, Mr. J. J. Harris took the opportunity of presenting the Rev. Mother with a bonus cheque amounting to 2275. and in doing so explained that this was an addition to their usual maintenance contributions, which this year had been exceptionally heavy. T he Rey.

"Lawful Larceny,' Radio Pictures' all-talking drama, comes to the Regent Theatre this (Saturday) evening, as the fourth programme of Hoyts Prosperity Movie Month of May, and presents Bebe Daniels in one of the most charming and entertaining stories thus far seen on the talking screen. She is supported by a cast of former stage favourites, including Lowell Sherman. Kenneth Thomson, Olive Tell, and Purnell Pratt. The story deals with Marion and Andrew Dorsey (Bebe Daniels and Kenneth Thomson), who are happy though married, until, while Marion is away, Andrew gets himself vamped and his fortune purloined. The Vamp, Vivian Hepburn ( Olive Tell). holds a 25.000 dollar note signed by Andrew. She threatens to Andrew confesses all to ruin him.

atre on Saturday, May 30th. Seldom has an actor fitted a role so well. The port of the domineering, brutal seacaptain, an experimenter in the stuff of which men's souls are made, might have been written expressly for the noted player of two-fisted roles. And the two chief victims of his curiosity, Jane Keith and Raymond Hackett, are equally well cast in their respective leading parts, as, indeed, are the supporting players especially Mitchell Harris, John Rogers, Nat Pendleton, Sam Allen, and Harry Tenbrook. "Naughty Flirt" Alice White's latest First National starring vehicle, will be the supporting attraction. The story, which deals with the efforts of a daring and devil-may-care rich girl to win the love of one of her father's trusted employees, and his unconventional way of reforming her before he is willing to marry her, is strikingly fresh and original. Paul Page, a new and interesting screen figure, plays the leading male role, while Robert Agnew and Myrna Loy play important roles.

An Odious Evil The Williamstown "Advertiser" carried the following trenchant editorial on Anzac Day. It was very appropriate to the occasion: "Sectarianism, as it is understood today, is an ugly word conveying unlovely implications. It is descriptive concisely of a condition of mind which, when applied to individuals or bodies. indicates an obsession of intolerance.

Saturday, May 23, 1931. the Consistory of April 15, 1907. In the Conclave held in 1914 he was one of the prominent members of the College of Cardinals, and in the first ballot he received a good number of votes. Cardinal Math's care for the archaeological and architectural remains of his archdiocese led to the restoration of the Churches of San Pietro a Ripa d'Arno, Santa Caterina, and San Fran. cesco. One of his latest achievements was the reconstruction in the Duomo of Pisa of the famous pulpit of Giovanni Pisan°. He published a delightful little pamphlet, in which he allowed the pulpit to tell its own story. II, also had the ashes of the Emperor nciiry VII. of Luxembourg brought back to the cathedral, and was able to discover the remains of Blessed Giordam da Rivalta, and obtain for them a worthy resting place in the Church of Santa Caterina. The concluding period of the Cardinal's life was closely bound up With the history of the negotiations for the settlement of the Roman clues He had been for many years tion. the leader of the party in the Church which was attempting to end the quarrel between the Vatican and the Italian government, and his candidature for the Papal succession on the death o f Pius X. was enthusiastically promated by this party. Although Cardinal Maffi was not destined to ascend the Papal Throne and him.self sign the act of conciliation. his friendship with King Victor Emmanuel and other members of the reigning house was of very great help during the negotiations. As Archbishop of Pisa he had mane opportunities of meeting the King at San Rossore, and it is well known that such doubts as might have been present in the King's mind as to the terms of the Treaty were removed largely by the Cardinal's frank persuasiveness.- "Irish Catholic."

Christ lives again from His birth Till the last great blood drops pass.

Y ou must think more of souls than of temporal things. Raise your heart a little to the most sweet and holy Cross. and you will find it assuage every pain. Isaw the pains of hell and of purgatory so great that no tongue of man is able to describe them—St. Catherine of Siena. Those who load us with insults and ignominy give us the means of acquiring treasures far more precious than any that man can gain in this life. We must receive that sweet Sacrament (Holy Communion), because it is the food of our souls; for without that food we cannot preserve the life ot grace. It is a great subject of praise to God that one soul like St. Francis should have wrested so many others from the devil and should have won such a large number to God. The reason so many souls who apply themselves to prayer are not at once inflamed with God's love is that they neglect to prepare themselves carefully for it. In this world we lean on creatures, on work, on friends, on human comfort: but the soul, conscious of its weakness, sin, and guilt, must seek its healing at other springs. Make sure that, however good you may be, you have faults; that however dull you may be, you can find out what they are, and that however slight they may be, you would better make some patient effort to get quit of them.—Ruskin. Between those who are united in Our Lord Jesus Christ by the bonds of charity and by the desire to promote the honour and glory of God the most agreeable letters are those which the Holy Spirit engraves on their hearts by the payers which they make for each other. WHY HE DOES NOT COME. "Our Lord Himself was perfected by His Passion." And in that passion it was not the nails which tore the flesh, but the angilish which rent the spirit, that drew fortrais.bitter cry. It was the passion ilk His Heart that was the hardest. It is by the crucifixion of the heart that Christ is perfected in us. Therefore He stays away and leaves us to suffering harder far to bear than physical pain. We cry out. We send. our messages to Him. And He does not come. 'My God, my God, why ha.st Thou forsaken me?" He hears and does not come. The echo of His own cry of desolation moves His Heart. And still He does not c ome. It is because Jesus loves that He does violence to His Heart, and lets the cross do for 1-1.4 friends what it alone can do. This is His way of showing love. He expects us to understand it —Mother Mary Loyola. THE WISDOM OF FATHER DEGIEN Many men to-day fear marriage not only for economic reasons. but also because they hesitate to tie themselves up for life with the typical modern girl, who often combines easy manners with easier morals. The best citizens come from families reared in an atmosphers of piety. It is the Godless homes which produces the w astrel, the parasite, and the criminal. Of all Christian virtues none contributes more to character, vigour, power. and efficiency than the angelic virtue of holy purity. Democracy is a hopeless ideal so long as the great mass, of the people is badly educated To allow the uncultured majority to rule over the cultured minority is to go backwards instead of forwards. It is not more voters that we want. but more persons fit to vote. If the moral training of the young is to be effective, precept must be lighted up and vivified by example. The degenerate man prefers darkness to sunlight and the erotic allurements

To translate his Latin verse: "As on a thorny stem, the rose buds sweet and fair, Not knowing how to wound, its origin ignores; So from Eve's sinful race comes Mary, Virgin rare, Who, pure and innocent, man's former lot restores." St. Bernard, in the same sense, making a comparison between Mary and Eve, says: "Eve was born, Mary Rose. Eve proved herself a thorn by the wounds she inflicted, Mary a rose by assuaging our evils. Eve was a thorn, attracting death to all; Mary a rose, restoring to us our happy lot."

PRECEDENCE.

37 BARRACK STREET, PERTH

There is a story told of two women who contended for precedence at the court of the Emperor Charles V. Both ladies were of "blue,' almost royal, blood, and both ladies were recognised as leaders in their own set. The position became more and more difficult, neither woman considering it her duty to yield in favour of the other. Finally, both proud women approached the Emperor himself, and submitted the case to him. Charles V. was a wise man. He smiled on both ladies with equal amiability, and said slowly: "The honour of going first belongs to the elder of you two." The ladies bowed low, and retired, seeking to hide their confusion. And from that moment, neither they nor any others strove to take first place at court functions.

His religion means less to him than it did. Doubts begin to assail him; they are more frequent than in the old days: they are graver, harder to dismiss.

THE MYSTICAL ROSE. Mary is very appropriately represented under the symbol of a rose. For, as the rose is the queen of flowers, so the Blessed Virgin is the Queen of the angels and saints, who may be called Oh, the flowers of God's creation. how gracefully buds the rose on the thorny stem, conspicuous by its bright colour, and spreading its sweet and pleasing odour! It is not improbably thought that in the neighbourhood of Jericho the rose reaches its greatest beauty and perfection. As the rose springs from a thorny stern, and yet has in itself no prickles, but is all smooth and fair, and pleasing to the eye. so Our Lady, although sprung from a race infected by original sin, was smooth and fair by grace, and free from the thorns of guilt. St. John Damascene sees in the thorns with which the stem of the rose is covered a "Oh, figniire of the Jewish people. Rose. ' he exclaims. "sprung from the thorns—that is from the Jews—thou hast spread abroad thy heavenly odour!" Of this heavenly Rose, Sedulius wrote

Rome.—Decrees of the Sacred Congregation of Propaganda Fide, all bearing the date of March 24, have named four new bishops for mission lands, and have erected five new ecclesiastical divisions. China has been given two native bishops, one in the north and one in the south.

The Goa and the Madras cases were both suits brought against the Church authorities, by laymen who claimed the right to administer Church property as regards temporal affairs. In the Goa case, the judge, Mr. T. S. Saldanha. di missed the suit, saying. in delivering his judgment, that: "Since the plaintiffs are Catholics, they are bound by the law of the Church. which means that the Church imposes on the conscience of the Catholics an obligation of voluntary obedience to Canon Law, which has been in existence for centuries, and has been codified in 1918, duly promulgated, and accepted by all Catholics in all matters which appertain to their religion. It is not open to a Catholic to accept the law of the Church in so far as it suits his purpose and reject the rest.

A very rich man had married a beautiful woman who, unfortunately, was beneath him socially. They were about to attend a big dinner, and the husband gave her a few words of advice before starting. "Just be yourself, and everything will be O.K.," he said. "Don't try to be clever whatever you do." In the course of the dinner, at a moment when the rich man's wife was resting her clasped hands on the t able, there came a lull in the conver<ation. "Awful pause,' remarked the man by her side, with a smile. "And would yours be,' snapped the other angrily, "if you'd worked at a washtub all day for five years, like I did before I was married!" An elderly dame heard her married (laughter say: "If my husband doesn't alter his ways he'll find himself in hot water!" "My child," said the old lady, "a man like an egg. Kept in hot water a :ittle while he may boil soft, but keep i;im there long and he hardens!" The sportsman was returning from a ! lay on the marshes. As he entered - he village he was met by a villager. " 'Morning, Charles!" he greeted. " 'Morning, sir!" said the man. "Been out shooting, eh?" "Yes," replied the sportsman, a little breathlessly. " And what have you killed, sir?" ,iFke(l Charles. "Just a few ducks,' the sportsman c xplained, opening his bag. Charles looked at the catch. "Were they wild?" he asked. "Well," said the sportsman, as he recollected the expedition, "they weren't exactly wild—but the farmers w ere." Freddie was a very slow boy, and had been discharged -from three situations in two weeks; but he had found employment under a naturalist. It t ook him two hours to give the canaries their seed, three to stick a pin t hrough a dead butterfly, and four to pick a convolvulus. The only good point about him was that he was willing. "And what,' he asked, having spent .1 whole afternoon changing the gold:ishes water, "shall I do now. sir?" The naturalist ran his fingers through :Ifs locks. ' web." he replied at length. "I think you might now take the tor•oise out for a run!" It was after the opera. The expensively-dressed woman approached t he broad-shouldered man. "If I am not mistaken,' she said, "I have the honour of speaking to the renowned bass singer?" Ile felt flattered. "And what can I do for you, o in dam ? " he asked. "I can't find my car," she answered. " Would you be so kind as to call out 'Charlie' at the top of Your voice?" A tale is going the rounds that a I:ttle Sotch girl applied for admission t ,) the Guides. "How old are you?" she was asked. "I'm twelve, mum.' "You are very small for twelve,' she as told. "Aye, I'm wee; but ye see, my father's wee, and my mither's wee; and ye canna get rats from mice." For a month Mrs. Rinks had been engaged on her great novel. Morning, noon, and night she tapped away with one finger at the typewriter while Rinks sat by in exasperation. Finally he could stand it no longer. "How far have you got now?" he asked. "The villain has cornered the heroine in her bedroom." Rinks appeared hopeful. "Could you let the hero arrive as F•ion as possible, so that you could sew a few buttons on my trousers?" he inquired. "Oh, my poor fellow, you mu• st be n Et through," said an old Aberdeen

lady to a young man who, at the risk of his life, had managed to get her pet poodle out of the frozen lake. The dog had run on the ice and fallen into a hole some distance from the bank. "Yes, you must be drenched to the skin." she continued. "Take these three peppermints—they'll warm you; and have these others before you go to bed to-night." "I wonder why it is that fat men are always good-natured?" "Probably because it takes them so long to get mad clear through." "Do you enjoy grand opera?" "Yes,' answered Mr. Cumrox; "especially when it's loud enough to keep me from hearing a lot of fool conversation that's going on around me.' Auctioneer: "Won't anyone mak• e a bid? I'll put up anything you like, ladies and gents!" Voice from the back. "Then put up the shutters!" • "Now if you just try your hand at composing the words for a popular Fong." urged Mallenby's friend, "you might get independently rich!" "I know it," Mallenby said; "but, alas. I am educated!" Magistrate: "You say this man was at the performance last night and that he took aim and threw an egg at you?" Actor: "yes, your worship." Magistrate: "And was it bad?" Actor: "The egg was, your worship, but the aim was not! ' A "tenderfoot" in the Wild West, watching a game of poker, saw one of the players deal himself four aces from the bottom of the pack. The "tenderfoot' whispered indignantly to another onlooker: "Did you ee that?" "What?" asked the other. "That swindler dealt himself four aces!" "Waal," was the astonished reply, "wasn't it his deal? * Son in college was applying pressure for more money from home. "I cannot understand why you call Yourself a kind father." he wrote his dad, "when you haven't sent me a cheque for three weeks. What kind of kindness do you call that?" "That's unremitting kindness," wrote t he father in his next letter. Widow (tearfully) : "Well, poor John was such a hand to worry. He simply wore himself out doing so. Even the day before he died he was fretting because coal had gone up two shillings a ton." Friend (trying to sae something consoling1 : "Never mind., dear; never mind. He has no need to worry over a piece of coal where he is now." "What a delightful new sideboa• rd, Mrs. Goof! Period, of course?" "Oh, ves—thirty-six monthly payments." • • • "Which is your aunt? The one on the right or the one on the left of the scarecrow?" "The one in the middle." MacPherson (hoping for free advic• e) : "Doctor. what should I do for a sprained ankle?" Doctor (also Scottish) : "Limp!" Father ( reading yearly repo• rt): "Why are you always behind with your studies, Robert?" Robert (quickly): "So that I can pursue them, father." Maid: "The master do • write a • lot mum." Mistress "Yes, Susan, he's writing a novel." Maid: "Lor, mum. fancy 'im going to all that trouble. when 'e could buy one for sixpence." "Take care of yourself, dear," • said the public speaker's wife as her husband set oft for an open-Air meeting. "Yes. yes, I will." he answered. "That's right," she said, "and remember, don't stand with your bare head on the damp ground."
