Brothers. Within the last year Lira and Karainaja have been detached from the Upper Nile Vicariate and placed under the Verona Fathers of the Equatorial Nile with the consequent opening of a new mission at Lira. Anglo-Egyptian Sudan —The same Fathers of Verona are labouring in the vast territory of the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, in the Prefecture of Bahr-elGebel, and in the Vicariates of Bahr-elGhazal and Khartoum. In these wild Nile lands, the trials and obstacles have been sufficient to break the most determined spirits. But nothing daunts the true apostle, and after many years of apparently fruitless labour, there are now bright prospects for a fine harvest of souls. In Bahr el Gebel it was even possible to start already with a Minor Seminary at Okaru, on a high plateau, and the work is progressing to the satisfaction of the Prefect Apostolic, Mgr. Zambonardi, and of the Fathers. At Jyba, the new Nile port, which has replaced the old station of Rejaf, our Fathers have secured a site and started work. A fine Industrial School exists at Wau in Bahr el Ghazal. The work of the Intermediate School at Wau is so satisfactory that the Government has now entrusted the running of the Stack Memorial School, a Government concern forming the three upper classes of the Intermediate School, to the mission, and in the Iltterests of all concerned the whole establishment is being transferred to a splendid site near the Bussere River, granted to the Mission by the Government. The Khartoum 3..icariate is among the most difficult mission fields in Africa. From the 10 deg. N. Lat. active missionary work has been impossible owing to the Government's fear of Mandist or Moslem fanaticism, and South of that linf the tribes (Shilluk, Dinka, Nuer) have been till recently almost untouchable and untouched. Protestant sects, Greek Orthodox, Melchites, Copts- -a very babel of nationalities and creeds—are to be found in Khartoum, in Atbara. and in Port Sudan, to create confusion. Nevertheless. the Verona Fathers are proof against discouragement. The Cornboni College, a memorial to the saintly founder, at the place of his early labours in Khartoum, is a credit to the Mother House. Atbara and Port Sudan has each its resident priest and community of Sisters, le Pie Madri della Nigrizia. The consecration of Mgr. I3ini last December as Vicar Apostolic of Khartoum promises vigorous advance in spite of the many obstacles This rapid and.by no means exhaustive review of progress shows the untiring activity of Catholic missionaries on the Eastern side of Africa. The wonderful advance made in a short time, with scanty means and all too small a staff of men and women, amid trials and difficulties of every kind, shows something more than human skill and determination. And not merely by material signs of brick ano but in the quantity and spiritual

The Spanish Scandal In his most incisive style, Mr. Belloc summed up in "G.K.'s Weekly" the facts abont the sacking .of churches They come and convents in Spain. to this. (1) There was complete tranquillity for many days after the revolution. (2) Then simultaneous attacks were made in different cities (a), everywhere arson of exactly the same sort; (b) with no violence to persons such as it associated with mob frenzy, and ( c) the army and the national police (31 There was no attack looking on. on any bank or on anything that stood for organised wealth.

Upon this Mr. Belloc comments: "There was nothing spontaneous about the affair from beginning to end, there was none of that haphazard violence which accompanies spontaneous popular movements: most extraordinary of all, there was no attack upon that wealthy irreligious middle class to which the Masonic bode belongs and from which it is recruited. You may say that their aims in attacking the Church are admirable or the reverse - that has nothing to do with the plain facts of the case. The thing was quite clearly organised, prepared and supported by the public authority. Has our Press said a word on t hat? Not a word. Has it even made a pretence of understanding what has happened? It has not even done t hat. Whenever it has commented on t he affair, it has treated it as a sort of confused movement on the part of the Spanish people as a whole in their de testation of a religion which they detest about as much as Englishmen de t erslintslethouses and racer, onsets

THE RECORD.
"A Man and a Priest of God" THE LATE FATHER FROST. S.J.
Nut since the obsequies tor Archbisho Carr (says the "Advocate"), has so large a number of people thronged st. Patrick's Cathedral_ as on the occasion when a Solemn Office ...and Requiem Mass for the repose, of the soul of the late Father Frost, S.J., took owe. Representations of all sections, educational, professional, commercial. Many and otherwise, were present. distinguished non-Catholics were present to pay the last honour to one whose friendship and worth they regarded so highly. In the true public school spirit, the prefects of the public schools, including Grammar Geelong Scotch College, School. and Geelong College, were present to show their esteem for Father Frost and their sympathy with Xavier c°liege. The Old Xaverians' Association was represented by the officeAt bearers and numerous members. the conclusion of the obsequies, they formed a guard of honour outside the C athedral. Members of the clergy, regular and sctular. many of whom came from distant parishes in the country, took part in the solemnities. Members of the teaching Orders, officials and members of Catholic societies and sodalities, pupils from St. and Preparatory X avier's College School, and groups of boys from St. Patrick's and St. Kevin's Colleges and other Catholic schools, linked up with the mourning throng to do honour to Archbisa great and loved teacher. hop Mannix presided at the Solemn Office and Requiem Mass. His Grace paid heartfelt and touching tribute to the deceased priest. In part, he said: -Father Frost's passing away has brought the greatest sorrow not merely to the Catholic body, but to all those with whom he ever came in conHow is it that Father Frost's tact. death has brought this unparalleled Well, one reason is sense of sorrow? that Father Frost was every inch a man, and secondly that every thought. and word, and action of his was the thought. word and action of a man and a priest of God. I. myself, have lost in Father Frost a close personal, intimate friend. There was no priest in this diocese cm whose sympathy and co-operation I could more confidently There was no priest who did rely. me greater or more numerous favours as occasion offered, but on an occasion of this kind personal sorrow is lost and is merged in the great public sorrow that Father Frost's death has occasioned He was one of those men who are popular without seeking popularity-. Ile was a quiet, silent, retirMg, almost shy, man—it is that type of man that has great force of character very often; he was always calm and dispassionate in his judgment. always true to his friends, and never Eiscourteous to his enemies, if he had any. He had the wonderful gift of understanding, and, like his Master, was all things to all men. Ah, yes! The Catholic community, and the community of Melbourne generally, has lost an outstanding figure in Father Edmund Frost. and it is hard to think that we shall never meet his manly form again. It is only a few years since he came f rom Ireland in the full pride of his manhood; it is only a few weeks since Father Frost, athlete as he was, took -part in games that he loved so well, and that he encouraged so insistently amongst his boys. Yes, it is only a few weeks, but it is all over, and Father Frost's mortal remains lie here before this altar. Ile had a great career. • short though it was. in Melbourne. He game here only a few years ago, and within twelve months, or a little more, he came to occupy what I consider to Ite one of the most important positions, if .not the most important, that any pnest in Melbourne could occupy—the headmastership of Xavier College. W hile discharging the duties of that office, Father Frost, in his own quiet, unassuming, humble way, made a mark for Xavier that has never been surpassed, and gave Xavier a position that it will be hard to improve upon. He w as always quiet, hut always effective. There was no pretence about Father Frost, but while there was no pretence, there was great achievement. and Xavier College. the present students of Xavier, and the old Xavierinns. who are so affectionately attached to the college, have reason to mourn the passing of Father Frost. But it was not merely as a man and as a headmaster that Father Frost captured the affection who are reyresented in this of those Cathedral to-day-Is many friends throughout Melbourne and throughout Victoria. Father Frost was above all things a priest of God
The marvellous thing, to me, at all e vents, about Father Frost, was that he seemed in a very extraordinary and marked degree to be all things to all men in the spiritual life. There are some, of course, who are called men's men, and they do well with men; there are some who do better, perhaps, with r eligions communities and with women; and there are some who have the faculty of being able to come down to the level of children. But Father Frost was at home with them all. Whether, it was with men or with women, or with grown-up people or with children, Father Frost was equally at home There was no straining after eloquence; there was no laboured e ffort to say something that was surpassingly eloquent and grand. Father Frost had the marvellous faculty of saying in his own simple, striking way the things that told with an audience —just the word that was needed by those for whom he spoke. And so it is that the passing of Father Prose is regretted, not because he was an outstanding man and a great headmaster and a great citizen, but because, above all, like his Master, he was a real spiritual man. Alas! All his activities are over. He was only, as it were, in the prime of life, and yet we are paying our last tribute to his mortal remains. Never again will Father Frost be able to address his boys, whom he loved so much, and never again will he be able to address the men and women of Melbourne, who, for his addresses, shourd be always grateful. But Father Frost has left a monument behind him in the hearts of all those boys who have come into contact with him. The father and friend of the boys is gone; the old Xaverians have lost a dear brother, and the clergy of the diocese have lost one of the ornaments of the Church. 1 have lost, myself, a dear and valued friend. But Father Frost's memory will remain also. I hope, in the great monument that is being erected at Xavier in honour of those Xaverians who gave their lives in the war. The memorial chapel is unfinished, but even in its unfinished state it is a testimony to the zeal, taste and courage of Father Frost. I hope it will be finished soon. and that it will be for all time a memorial, not merely to the fallen men to whom Father Frost was anxious to pay a tribute, but also to Father Frost, who has done great work for the Jesuit Fathers, who have lost a zealous and energetic worker, and one of the greatest ornaments of the Church in Australis. May God have mercy upon the soul To use the words of Father Frost. that the priests recite so often in the Office and Compline: "May his waking be with Christ and his repose in May God have mercy upon peace." his soul, and grant him refreshment light and peace eternal.

THE RECORD.
Out of the Metal-Pot A lecture on "Ancient Medicine and Surgery" was given by Lord Moynihan under the auspices of the London Society in the hall of the Royal Society of Arts. Sir John Rose Bradford presided. Lord Moynihan said that the sources from which they derived their knowledge of ancient medicine and surgery were the bones of individuals who had died as long ago as 500,090 years, the mummies from ancient Egypt, the drawings of prehistoric and early historic times in caves and tombs, and the writings of poets, playwrights, and physicians, some of them of the highest value. The study of material from all these sources showed that disorders very similar to 'those now attacking mankind were very ancient enemies, and that until comparatively modern times almost identical views as to their nature, origin, and method of control were held in countries far apart. He showed how Pithecanthropus was already the,,yietim of a certain muscular disorder, how the Heidelberg man revealed a condition of surgical tuberculosis (Neanderthal man, he suggested, like so many people to-day, was csmpelled to drink milk infected with tuberculosis) ; how chronic osteo-arthritis occurred in the Nile Valley thousands of years ago, and was so characteristic that the determinant of old age, was the figure of a bent, crippled old man. The hand of the aunt of Tutankhamen showed signs of a healed fracturs. It was a big, strong muscular hand for a woman, commented Lord Moynihan and this particular bone was Yen- rarely fractured unless the hand was conveying a blow with a good deal of force. These facts gave rise to interestng conjectures as to the domestic life led by the lady! No orthopaedic surgeon in the world to-day could get a better result from a fractured forearm than was achieved 3,000 years ago in the case of a Young girl who had broken both forearms and had presumably died of other injuries, for the bones were only just uniting and splints and bandages were still in posiAs the bandages were unwraption. ped, they showed the exact methods by which splints made from Nile reeds were applied and the acuracy of the resultant alignment. The Pharaoh of the oppression suffered and probably died from acute appendicitis. Examination of his heart gave an occular demonstration of the Old Testament statement—"And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh" The aorta was found in such a well-preserved state that Mr. S. G. Shattalk, of the Royal College of Surgeons, was able to make sections of it and compare them with those made from a man recently dead. No pathologist could tell which was the ancient and which was the modern vessel. Both were attacked by the disease atheroma, a condition in which calcium salts were deposited in the cells of the vessel, making it rigid and inelastic. It did not expand adequately to the stream of blood coming from the heart. Mental changes went with this rigid arterial system. There was a narrowness and rigidity of outlook, a lack of enterprise and initiative. • A new and probably unique form of anti-religious propaganda finds expression in playing-cards, which have recently been placed on sale in State shops of Moscow, says a Continental exchange. All the face cards are decorated in a manner calculated to cast disrepute on some form of religion. The hearts show a Roman Catholic priest thinking of a woman; the diamonds are devoted to caricatures of Jewish rites; the spades are reserved for the Russian Orthodox Church, and the clubs depict the Oriental shaman, or medicine-man, and Buddhist figures. The aces in this curious pack point the contrast between the gloomy religious past and the bright atheistic future. On one-half of the card one sees barbaric figures beating drums, faggots prepared for heretics, whips and gallows: on the other are globes and machines, symbols of science, implements of sport, schools. etc. On one of the sides is written: -So it was": on the other: "So it will be): The "joker" in the pack is a figure supposed to represent the Deity, dressed up in old-fashioned formal clothes, and with the aspect which Communist artists usually impart to the capitalist. This figure holds the reins which control all the four forms of religion which are held up to oppres brium. On the hacks of the cards one sees a grim Mephistopheles carrying off the souls of the damned. Just Say-11 saw your ad in The Record'

SOCIAL NOTES These are days when the average housewife anxiously turns over the children's wardrobe, her own and, a peep at her husband's, a course, has and almost weeps at the wear and tear that necessity, oh, wretched tyrant! 'flaking on them, and she wonders with just a little ache at the heart, w here she is to find the wherewithal to replace the worn-out garments. There are so many anxieties for mothers with growing families that the politicians, we fear, are heaping upon her burdens that will be heavy to bear. The demands of taxation, the reduction in the weekly income, and the other pin-pricks that follow when supplies come to hand from the storekeeper, the greengrocer, and the butchers's bill is delivered, not menhoning the rent-man, and other callers, will bring many headaches. But t hese are the days when "Economy" is being shouted from the housetops, and even the domestic parrot is beginning to whistle it, and the housecat complains that life is not what it used to be. Still it is better to be 'tope& than sad and remember that when things come to the worst they egin to mend.

Meat plays too important a part in the average Australian home, and dishes containing the substitutes lentils, peas and haricot beans, are neglected. Fruit. vegetables and sometimes milk do not play the important part they should. The frying-pan is used too often in most menus. A pleasing point is the extent to which housewives have used sheep's head to make economical and nourishing dishes.

The New Spanish Venture It is said that _khans°, the dethroned King of Spain, once said with a smile, when the possibility of a Republic was mentioned to him by a friend, that in that event he would present That must have been himself as a candidate for the Presidency. in the years agent, when he wag high in public favour, and before the affections of the people had been alienated by years of intolerAlfonso, more than any other ruler of ant political hardships. his time, has been the victim of incompetent and bungling politicians. They, by their maladministration, paved the way for a dictatorship, and the dictatorship irritated the nation's nerves to such a degree that the festering sure of discontent made the transition from Monarchy to Republicanism swift and easy, as is evidenced by the peaceful proclamation of a Provisional Republican Government and the results of the elections that have just taken place in Spain. • • • Whatever hopes Alfonso cherished in relation to his popularity outside Madrid and Barcelona, these two revolutionaryminded centres of Socialism, they must now be very grievously shattered by the very pacific and general acceptance of the Republican Government. A new Constitution is to take the place of the old, and all the old regime's traditions and pretensions are to be crushed under the Republican heel. The stream of national sentiment is to be diverted from the old channels into channels alien to the Spanish tradition. The future of Spain is now in the keeping of a Republican Government, and the prayer of every friend of Spain should be for her temporal and spiritual welfare. That the new Government will deliberately hurt those spiritual and temporal tendencies is not suggested, but a vicious and anticlerical bias exists in many members of the Republican party, and is even operating in the councils of Government: and if the solid and compact body of Socialists, which support the Government, can have its way, the status of religion in Spain may get a taste of the Russian medicine in the not remote future. Socialism has t aken root in Spanish soil. Barcelona, since the days of Ferrar, has been a disturbed centre, and from there has spread the gospel of revolution. Many social evils engendered by corrupt government have contributed to the downfall of the old order. It might be for the betterment of the people as a whole, and it might be f or their distress. Time, the real dictator of events, will tell. • • The controlling element of the elections was undoubtedly Socialist. Socialism has not grown up in the near past; it has grown up with the industrialisation of the country. It has a disoiplined and compact body of 600.000. and this body is behind the Government. The future of the Republic will, therefore. be guided by its programme and policy. Now that the popular vote of the Spanish nation has decided in favour of the Republic, the exiled Alfonso may turn his eves with regret from the storm-set scene and his lost throne. V1 4/That matters it to him now that once he held the affections of his people! In the last closing chapters of the Monarchy's days, when the dice was thrown by the electors, . name had no charm, no influence upon the national sentiment. The traditonal veneration of the people for this greatest and best of the Bourbons had passed. for it is stated his name was not mentioned in the fateful proceedings. • • The two elements that have been mentioned as likely to provide an insuperable harrier to the Republic—the Army and the Church—seems to have confessed their allegiance and have accepted it as the de jure Government of Spain. And as the Vatican City State has recognised the Republic. the end of Bourbon rule in Spain seems to be ended. Yet the Vatican has fears for the future of religion in Spain. The anti-Christian outbreaks and destruction of Church property, in the first weeks of the Republic. indicate the presence of vicious elements in Spain that bode no good to religious peace or to the Church there. On a conservative estimate, it is stated the total loss caused by the burning of convents. churches. and other religious buildings, together with the looting of valuable Church property, is more than two and a half million pounds. • That fact alone speaks volumes.

News and Notes Speaking recently in Melbourne, at the first -of a series of fortnightly- him cheons instituted by the Young Australla League. Mr. J. J. Simons, founder and honorary organiser of the League,. announced himself as a heretic who did not believe in democracy. "Our ills are hard to diagnose," he said. "but the real solution of our troubles is for the young men of the community to take a greater interest in polities—as great an interest as they now take in what won last Saturday and what is going to win next Saturday. Most people seem to believe that Parliament is going to solve our troubles. What hope have we got while Parliament is formed by appealing to the mass of the people, a majority of whom do not know anything about governWhen it comes to ment or finance? government it is really the man who can tell the best tale who gets in. In the beginning of history there was a very memorable election, in which Ponctius Pilate was the returning officer. The people selected the rogue Barabhas in preference to Christ. Through the long ages of democracy the Barabbases of the community have usually been preferred by the people. I was a politican once, and the only time I got in was when I had no case at all but a good catchword. I have heard it said," Mr. Simons concluded, "that the only man who went to Parliament with the right idea was Guy Fakes. I think a monument ought to be erected to him.. Right Rev. Mgr. Jerome Hennessy, V.F., 1,f Young. N.S.W., whose association with Australia began shortly after his ordination to the priesthood. 50 years ago, was honoured at appropriate functions. The occasion was the attainment by this pioneer priest of his sacerdotal golden jubilee. Solemn Pontifical High Maas was celebrated by the Bishop of Bathurst. Right Rev. Dr. Norton. The Bishop of Goulburn, Right Rev. Dr. Barry, presided in the sanctuary, where were also the Bishop of Wagga, Right Rev. Dr. Dwyer, and Mgr. McCarthy. A banquet was tendered the jubilarian in the Young Town Hall by the citizens of the town and district, at which the principal speaker was Bishop Norton. At a concert and speech night in the Southern Cross Hall, Mgr. Hennessy was presented with a cheque for £1250. He was also honoured at functions arranged by the children and given a cheque for L50 Monsignor Hennessy has done wonderful work for religion and charity in the town of Young. He is regarded as a citizen of great value and a leader to be respected. • • The Very Rev. I. Doyle, OP.. Prior. North Adelaide, celebrated the silver jubilee of his ordination to the priesthood on the 17th. ult. Rev P. O'Connor. parish priest of Seymour (Vicj. celebrated on 24th, ult, the silver jubilee of his ordination. Father O'Connor was educated at St. Michael's College, Listowell, County Kerry, and at All Hallows College, Dublin, where he was °rained on June 24, 1906. Bro. Wilbred, whose death occurred in St. Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, on the 8th. ult., was one of the pioneer Australian Marist Brothers Louis Staunton. to be known in the religious life as Bro. Wilbred, was born in Moruya on March 25, 1858. At the age of 29 he joined the alarist Brotners. He first taught in a super-primary class attached to St. Patrick's School, Hao rington-street Sydney, where he had as pupils Rod. Quinn. E. J. Brady, W. J. Spruson, and many others prominent in pablic life. Later, he was transferrel to St. Joseph's College. For only brief intervals was Bro. Wilbred's connection with the Hunter's Hill School broken by short sojourns in Sydney and Adelaide. About six years ago Tiro Wilbrecrs health began to fail, and he retired from teaching. With kft. P. H. Louis, he founded, twentyfive years ago, "Cerise and Blue," the S.J.C. Old Boys' annual magazine, and he was jsint editor of this publication f or the last nine years. R.I.P. The "Australian lewish Herald," the o fficial organ of the Victorian Jewish c ommunity. has the following fine tribute to the late Father Frost. ST.. Rector of Xavier Colege. whose death was ,,,e,sPerted recently: "The sympathy of Victorian Jewry will be extended to the : Roman Catholic community at the loss it has sustained by the tragic death of Rev.

Right across the Pacific. from San F rancisco, in his own yacht, the Northern Light, commanded by his wife, has come Zlatko 13alokuvic, the famous Croatian violinist, who is to tour Australia under the J. and N.

The romantic voyage of over 8,000 miles has included visits to the islands of the South Seas, including the Marquesas, Tahiti, and Fiji. The yacht is 140 feet long, and is said to be one of the most luxuriously equipped pleasure craft afloat It carries a crew of eleven.
A Social Calendar We hope to insert next week a social calendar of Catholic events. This calendar should help to avoid the clashing of Catholic events that is a source of annoyance and loss at present. Dances and entertainments for charitable institutions or parochial needs will be listed, free of charge, provided we are notified. The diocesan journal should be the first paper to be informed of Catholic happenings, and not to have to learn of them from the daily press, as has happened. The columns of "The Record" are always open, and will gladly welcome Catholic news of local interest. The practice, which is not uncommon, of sending the advertisements of Catholic dances and entertainments to the daily press, and then seeking free publicity, without any advertisement, in "The Record," is not fair, and certainly not complementary to a Catholic paper. Again, we respectfully request the reverend pastors, the reverend Superiors and Mothers of our educational establishments, the directors of our charitable institutions, the officials of our Catholic societies, organisations. old boys' associations, and sports clubs, to r emember that "The Record" has a printing press, which can do many kinds of job printing, stationery, schoolannuals. circulars, and cards, and that it has the right to expect the support of Catholic bodies. As we report the doings of various Catholic societies each week, we naturally hope for their patronage when printing is needed. To date, we have hoped in vain. THE EDITOR.
Justice McGrath. a leading figure in American journalism for forty years, and the organiser, and for 11 years Director of the N.C.W.C. News Service, died of heart disease on May 17. He was 64 years old. Mr. McGrath had not been in complete health for two years. When he sailed for Europe last Auyust 15 to attend the International Catholic Press Congress at Brussels, however, it was thought his ailment was only a passing one. After taking a leading part in the Brussels Congress. he returned ten 'weeks later and shortly thereafter his condition was diagnosed as serious. He nevertheless continued his work as Director of the News Service until the last. Mr. McGrath was buried in his native city, St. Louis, MD. • "My first words to you all to-day must be about the terrible news we have recently been receiving from This is obviously no mere soSpain. cial or political revolution, but an assault by the powers of hell upon the very Name of Christ. Pray earnestly for that distracted country, that peace and tranquillity may soon be restored and that. whatever form the new Government may take, it shall not be one of opposition to God and to His Christ." With these words the Bishop of Nov tingham opens his Whitsuntide Pastoral, in which he gives leave of Expositions of the Blessed Sacrament t hroughout the diocese, when special prayers of intercession for Spain should be offered. It is not only in Spain that there are dark clouds in the social and political horizon, continued his Lord' chip. Here at home we have them also. But, so far at least as our own country is concerned, whatever troubles may perhaps be brewing, there is joy for us in the knowledge that the old Faith is gradually taking root once more amongst us.

NEWMAN SOCIETY OF WA. On Wednesday evening, a splendid assembly of members met in the students' refectory of the University to enjoy an informal talk on her American experiences by Miss Norma Parker, M A. Prefacing her obstrvations. Miss Parker said: "Lest you may consider me too enthusiastic, let me point out some things in which we in Australia are superior to America. At the Social Service School I met graduates from all the States in the Union. the product of Universities that fully reflect the condition of higher studies over there, girls from the great Universities, girls from State colleges, girls from private and denominational colleges, and the conclusion I came to is that they do not measure up to the standard of our local graduates. Again, it is my conviction that our elementary schools are better than the American, _ where the difference is I cannot say. There is also an advantage in our lack of standardisation. With those observations in mind, I must now explain to you why T am so enthusiastic about America. Undergraduate work is not as good as ours, but post -graduate work over there is marvellous. organised and financed in such a manner that is unheard of over here. Take for e xample. the work I specialised in— Social Service work—the name means
ELEVEN nothing in Australia. There is a trained worker at the Melbourne General Hospital—a course is beginning at Sydney University—and that is about the extent of our advance on a line of work that is considered an essential to the psychologist, the medical man, the mental specialist, the charities di. rector both in U.S.A. and in England." Miss Parker then pictured life as she lived it at Washington. Cleveland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. For the past six months she lived in Hollywood, but assured her audience that it was a most respectable suburb of Los Angeles. Differences in food, dress, accent, attitude and mannerism were outlined by the speaker, and then came questions. which the audience plied with zest, covering every topic from fashion to prohibition, from "boosting" to trade unions. At the conclusion, the Rev. Dr. McMahon, proposing a vote of thanks, recalled his meeting Miss Parker and Miss Moffit at New York in September. 1928, on their arrival, of his failure to get anything more enthusiastic from them at the sights of New York than that Australian expression of casualness: "'tis not too bad"—the change in both of them some months later when that coldwater expression grew into a competitive degree of—" 'Tis just fine"—and t he final conversion on her return when her enthusiasm expressed itself in superlatives—"A wonderful country and a wonderful people." Dr. McMahon stressed this lack of the expression of enthusiasm. We may feel enthusiastic, but we are afraid to make it known. That conservative. English attitude, is not suitable to a ‘-oung try such as thic NEWMAN—CASTLEDA RE BALL. The Newman Society has decided at a general meeting. that the Newman Ball this year will be an effort to help Castledare. The ball will be held at the Temple Court Ballroom in September. A joint committee of members of the Newman Society and of some representatives of eastledare wil! begin next week to organise the Ball.
Soviet Dumping May Ruin Irish Butter Trade Writing to the London ''Catholic Herald." its correspondent in Dublin says: The announcement that Soviet Russia has opened a butter-dumping campaign in Britain to the tune of £2.0(1).. 000 for the season, and started recently with a consignment of 15.)00 barrels landed in London. has brought consternation into the ranks of the Irish but. ter-producers. Not that the Russiar article is an adequate substitute for Irish creamery of standard grades. but that the "cut price" it is proposed to sell it at in Britain will complete the ruin of an already very weak market and the Irish butter trade was never in worse case to withstand the Soviet onslaught. The success of certain "strong men" among the creamery managers in breaking up the Irish Creamery Association, formed with Government held for co-operative marketing. so as to regain a free band for open competition with other creameries, is now unlikely to bring them all the joy anticipated. The less egotistical butter. traders are struggling to reform the chattered ranks and create a new orsanication which will accomplish the main purpose of eliminating ruinous internal competition, and yet leave some freedom of action to the "strong men" in supplying the home trade, at any rate. Details of the new scheme for joint marketing of Irish creamery have been submitted to the creameries with a request for a quick decision in view of the crisis in the industn- The Provisional Committee are not too sanguine of success to judge by the tone of their announcement, for the spirit of en-operation is none too plentiful in creamery circles. The butter situation as a what, with its world depression. its Soviet dumping, and its internal disorganisation, not to mention the reduced buy. ing power of the British consumers, is rather a bad blow for the Minister for Agriculture, who had apparently high hopes from the rese' • Produce measures Executive of the Breeders' Society. Mr. Hogan states: "It seems to me that the industry. having turned down a carefully-thoughtout scheme. should be able to put forward a plan of its own which would find general acceptance—unless, of course, the producers in the main are satisfied that individual selling will give better results than any form of combined marketing."

Competition for Rendering of President's Charge.
The second half was entirely occupied by a drama in two acts, by Richard Brinsley Sheridan. The cast included fifteen actors of no mean. ability, and a thoroughly good show was given to patrons. One might say with truth and certainty that there was never a dull 'moment in the play. Bright and striking costumes, novel scenery, scintillating dialogue, and poignant Situations brimful of humour contributed towards the general and definite success. His Lordship, in summing up the evening's performance, e xpressed it as his opinion that the company which originally acted the piece in England in 1775, would have reason to feel truly jealous were they among that night's audience in the modest little hall at S.I.C. The College Director. Rev, Brother Sebastian, in a short speech. at the conclusion of the evening's entertainment, thanked the boys who had taken an active part in it. and thanked also the man who, by his untiring zeal and energy, had made the play what it was --a pronounced success. iFtethermore, on behalf of the Brothers and students, he wished to congratulate the guest of the evening.

MAYLANDS.
A most successful social evening was held in the School Hall on Friday evening last, in aid of Miss Millie Sweet, and at which the One Pound Art Union was drawn, the lucky winner being the Rev. Father O'Connor. Miss Kathleen Sullivan commenced her last week of entertainments in the popular lady competition on Monday evening last, with a Streamer Carnival in the Maylands Town Hall. and the a ttendance was below expectations. In fact ,it is surprisine that the young people do not support local dances better, especially when the organisers give every consideration in providing the best of music, together with excellent floor and a dainty supper. However. the carnival was most successful from a social point of view. Dalton's Orchestra provided the music. and Mr. A. V. Rose acted as M.C. The usual weekly euchre party was held in the School Hall on Tuesday evening last, a large attendance being present. Mr. F. Franklin. in winning eleven games, was the winner, and Mrs. McCaughey and Mr. W. Mills tied for second prize by winning ten games each. Two golden caskets were conducted, the first, a manicure set, being won by No. 39, Miss F. Gaynor. Guildford-road; and the second, a theatre ticket. by No. 85, Mr. Croyle, of Chelmsford-road. , For the remainder of the week, Miss Sullivan had a full programme, and it is expected that the week will be a great financial success. The Rev. Mother and Sisters, as well as Miss Sullivan. desires to extend their thanks to Mr. Ayres, for his generous donation of a silver dish. which has added to the monster art union prizes. and in which it has been credited in error as donated by Cans Bros. All art union books and butts in connection with Miss Sullivan's candidature are to be returned to the Convent not later than August 2. Miss Josephine Colreavy, who is representing St. Vincent de l'aul Society, will begin her final week on Monday next, and the programme arranged is as follows: Monday. Select Dance.

Home, Sweet Home 'Mid pleasures and palaces, wherever we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home. THE ROADWAY OF MY HEART. A big road circles round the world, sure fine it is they say, But the little boreen of my heart runs lone and far away. w inding over weary seas with many a sigh beset, But, oh. of all the roads I know it is the dearest yet . By common ways and common homes and common graves it goes, But no one knows its beauty like the soul within me knows; Its dawns are drenched with dews from heaven, its nights are tearful sweet, And sometimes One long crucified walks there to guide my feet. me down by purple hills where leads It f airies sport o' nights, It shows me many a hawthorn lane, the scene of dead delights. It clothes again with living fire the faces laid away Beneath the cold of grass and mould, my road of yesterday. Oh, twilit boreen of my heart, the world is vague and vast, But you are holy with the balm of all my hallowed past; You thrill me with the touch of hands my hands were wont to hold, You lure me with the lilt of dreams I dreamed and lost of old. The big, big roads of the world leads on by many a stately town, But the little boreen of my heart keeps ever drifting clown. By common ways and common graves and common homes, but, oh! Of all the roads in life it is the sweetest road I know. —Teresa Brayton. WORDS OF WISDOM. The man who is loyal will be with you when you are up, and he will be with you when you are down, because he has in him that which is finer than wealth or glory, lie has in him an appreciation of the finer things of life, a regard for his fellow-beings. The tongue is the instrument that serves to empty the heart. As a furnace, of which the mouth is alwavc: open, cannel retain the heat within itself, so neither can the heart preserve the grace of devotion unless the mouth be closed with the grace of :slence. If a man finds it very hard to forgive injuries, let him look at a crucifix and think that Christ has shed all His Blood for him, and not only forgave His enemies, but prayed the Eternal Father to forgive them also. If you set your heart upon places and occupations, obedience will often send you where you would not be; in order, therefore, to be always cheerful, always be bumble and obedient. If all things are added to those who seek first the Kingdom of Heaven, and its righteousness, can anything be w anting to those who seek only the righteousness of His Kingdom and the King of Kings Himself? In sickness we ought to ask God to give us patience, because it often happens that when a man gets well, he not only does not do the good he proposed to do when he was sick, but he multiplies his sins and his ingratitude. When entering a room, we find a person carelessly seated at a table. upon which a neglected light is dimly burning, we conclude that he has fallen asleep. That sleep is a fair emblem of those Christians who fail to purify their good intentions by repeated acts of love of God. and. heedless about the sanctification of their souls, indulge in the slumber of tepidity.
through having what they love when they were when they lacked it. Miserable enough through loving harmful things, more miserable through having them. And our Mertniul God, when we love amiss, denies us what we but sometimes in His anger He love; grants a man what he loves amiss! . . . But when we love what God wishes us to love, then, doubtless, He will give it us. This is That One Thing Which ought to be loved; that we may dwell in the House of the Lord all the days of our life —St. Thomas Aquinas. MODERATION. Moderation is the practice of putting some restraint on passions or pleasure. It is not a quite and easy matter. It calls for some violence and force. It is the decisive shutting of a door. It is taking a firmer Dip. It is biting the lips to repress an angry retort. It is pushing one's self away from the table before hunger is quite appeaesd. It is supplanting the habit of immoderation by the habit of selfdenial. It is- accepting the pain of a moment to escape the pain and regret of hours and days.—W. Doyle, S.J. GOD AND THE WORLD. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness we hold not as privileges, but as rights --as ends for which no human being may be prevented from striving. The gaining of these is a proper aspiration dear to the hearts of all true men. The right to life implies the right to faith in the life which is eternal. The right to liberty implies freedom of soul to. serve God and country at our best. The pursuit of happiness can be the privilege only of those who seek spiritual and natural comfort in its most profound and enduring phases In life we meet trouble and disorder and contradictions; but in all this we must avoid the folly of cherishing the dream that there is a worldly panacea, or universal solvent this side of eternity. RENUNCIATION. When I am done with worldly things that blind me Like a swift light that flashes and is gone. Deep in a forest the long, slow years will find me Waiting for the twilight, listening for dawn. I shall have time to see a fern uncurl. ing Its emerald fingers like a child asleep: To watch gold fireflies, gypsy-hearted, swirling In beauty that the night alone may reap. I shall have time to hear the scarlet sobbing Of shattered roses on a frosted bough; To hear the breath of early Autumn throbbing In every grass I trample lightly now. Then shall I know, and let my heart run over With secrets that shall open like a flower, And I will lie in deep sweet-scented clover And count the shining minutes of each hour. —Daniel Whitehead Hicky. in the New York "Times."

gress in virtue. Such is the meaning of the reproach addressed to Job: "Shall a man full of talk be justified?" "No," here replies St. Gregory the Great, "the man abounding in words shall never rise to the perfection of justice. He who knows how to bridle his tongue preserves himself irreprehensible in his words," "and if any man offends not in word," says St. James, "the same is a perfect man: "so powerful a means of advancing in perfection is this holy and salutary custom of moderating our speech and observing interior recollection.—Bellecius.

It seems as if God were t he happier of the two, and my heart melts with joy at the knowledge of this tenderness of God.—Mortier. INGRATITUDE TO GOD. Everybody is in such a desperate rush these days that we haven't much time for the brief but very important "Thank you." And that is too bad. There is nothing easier to say, and vet nothing more welcome to hear. The little note that begins, "You were very kind and I'm grateful," the smiling gratitude with which we accept a trifling favour, even the inadequate "Much obliged" (and that is conceding a lot), make us much more eager to give and serve and be generous. For even the most self-sacrificing soul gets tired of pouring favours down a well with never a response or sign of apprecia tion.

Man) other shorter poems also show t he Catholic spirit in Longfellow's poetry. One can but wonder that this singer of songs who understood the message of the Angel Gabriel to the Blessed Virgin, who could leave his burden; t ehincl the cathedral door where "the eternal ages watch and wait," who seems to have been directed by the great principles of the moral law, who what St. Peter means to the true Church of Christ, who entered into ths meaning of the functions of the priesthood, and who found no difficult} in the consecration of women to the religious life—all stumoling blocks to the ordinary Protestant—one can but wonder that he was not moved to go further and pronounce his "Credo" in the whole of Catholicism. Perhaps he is only another illustration that the poet. as well as the prophet, often sings of truths which he does not fully understand. Perhaps the "fine frenzy" of inspiration is/ not altogether a myth. Be that as it may, much of Longfellow's poetry belongs to our Catholic children as their right.

THE RECORD. NEWS FROM IRELAND—
A PRIEST AND HIS MEMORIES True Type of Soggarth
On April 22 just past, writes Louis J. a grand Walsh, in the "Irish Catholic," old priest of the Diocese of Derry— Father John MacConalogue, P.P., of County the Termonnamongan, in Tyrone —celebrated, amidst great popular rejoicing, with the plaudits and congratulations of his Bishop and tellow.priests, and a special Papal Blessing wired from the Vatican City, the Diamond jubilee of his ordination to the priesthood. Father MacConalogue is a most remarkable man. and makes for the people of this generation a very precious link with the Ireland of our grandHe was born in the Parish fathers. of Culclaff, in Donegal, some eightynine years ago—in the year 1842. He saw the Great Famine, and many of its poignant and terrible memories appear to be as still vivid in his memory as are the events of last year. He saw the insurrection of '48, '67, and 1916. He was far advanced in his studies for the priesthood before the so-called "Church of Ireland" was disestablished. He remembers the Crimean War. the American Civil War, the Franco-Prussian War. the Boer War, the Great War, and many a small one all over the world. He can recall Gladstone in his prime and Disraeli in the zenith of his glory. Ile was a priest before Parnell was elected to Parliament or anyone outside Bantry had ever heard of Tim Healy. lie read with horror how the troops of Garibaldi broke into the Holy City and foolish men cried out exultantly that the end of the Papacy had come: and he lived to see the prophecies of the heretics falsified and a new Pope. acknowledged as one of the sovereigns of the world, seated more firmly on his throne than ever. He beheld landlordism in all its pomp and power and proud arrogance in Ireland. and he watched it crumble in pieces in years that seemed long in agony but now look wonderfully short in retrospect. Empires, thrones, institutions, and systems have been breaking or re-shaping themselves before his keen, interested eyes all his long life.
But, after it ill, the old man is still . alert, active, and full of life and priestly zeal and interest, and is still doing the work that he did so faithfully during all the long years when those whom the world calls great were pursuing the fleeting shadows after which they chased and quarrelling about so many things that did not and do not matter. That is to say that since that April day in 1871 when, after a college course which had been interupted by more than one had breakdown that seemed to presage for him an early grave. Father John MacConalogue was ordained in the Long Tower Church in Derry City by the Most Rev. Dr. Kelly, then Bishop of the Diocese, the good priest has been offering up the Holy Sacrifice every morning for the sinners of the world, and preaching the Word of God, and ministering to the sick, and consoling those that laboured and were heavily burdened, and, untroubled by the world and its follies. has been performing his daily round of duties, and heaping up treasures, both for himself and for the faithful people for whom he gave his life's work. " where neither the rust nor the moth doth consume, and where thieves do not break through and stear There is something strangely sublime and wonderfully satisfying in the thought of a good man giving sixty long years to priestly service such as w as Father MacConalogue's, and there is a sort of irony that is not of this world in the reflection that this simple priest. who all his life had shrunk f rom publicity and vainglory and popular applause, should now. in spite of any protects he dared to have made, find himself acclaimed by Pope and Bishop and by great and humble amengst the laity, and have his photograph staring at him from so many newspapers, and so many journalists writing articles about him The amazing thing about Father N.lact onaloguc. however, is not his long life or his devoted labours, but the fact that he is still so young after it all. Dr. K ane. -ne Bishop of Derry, in the eloquent and fitting tribute which he Paid to the good priest at the Jubilee celeibrations, said with great truth that he 'still retained the heart of a boy" That is literally tow. A couple of months ago I had the privilege of spending an evening with Father MacConalogue under the hospitable roof of another priest of the same diocese. The
occasion that brought us together was a lecture on a period in Irish history that even to me, with my half century behind me, seemed as far away as Brian Boni or the Wars of the Roses, but which the wonderful young old man had himself lived through. He had come to the gathering with as much gusto as the youngest of us. and in the pleasant social gathering that f ollowed there was nobody that enjoyed all the fun and good stories and merriment more than he did. When he left us at ten we were told casually that, after his drive home that night. he expected to he up the next morning about six to be ready to go out "on stations." The "stunt" newspapers of to-day were vying with each other with panaceae for long life and good health, and if one of them were to ask me for my valuable opinion on the subject I would probably, mindful of the Parish Priest of Tennonnamongan, suggest that the real secret of longevity seemed to be plenty of hard praying and hard work, and the happy cheerfulness that comes from ardent Faith and a clean conscience. It may be only a manifestation of the principle of the survival of the fittest, or that men are like good wine and improve with age. but Father MacConalogue and other men of his period have always impressed me with the idea that in many ways we are not nearly as fine a people as some of the generations of Irishmen who have preceded us in this land. At any rate there is about the present jubilarian a charm, a culture, a graciousness, and an intellectual keenness that are hard to find in this age of push and rush and assertiveness and vulgarity and shallowness. In Ireland we have drifted yen- far in the last seventy years from our own distinctive culture and civilisation, and, like all people who become conscious imitators, we have too often adopted the bad traits of the outsiders rather than the good ones. In spite, too, of all our supposed educational progress and the number of fine colleges and schools we have built. I doubt very much if the mental equipment of the young men whom year by year we now send forth to fight the battle of life in the various avocations is in any way superior to that of the period when we had to rely on rude acarlemnies such as the one in which Father MacConalogue completed his secular studies.
Ile was educated in one of the country classical schools that then flourished all over Ireland and in which most of our old priests were pupils before they went to Maynooth to pursue This partheir theological course. ticular school was taught by a Mr. MacCloskev. whose reputation went all over Ireland, and from beneatia the roof of whose simple country cottage no less than 137 priests went forth to labour in the Vineyard of the Lord. The students lodged in country cottages all over the district, and sometimes walked long distances to their school every morning: and another survivor of the notable band of Levites who drank at the fount of knowledge at "Master MacCloskevls" feet once wrote to me: "The simple influences—together with the grace of God- -helped to maintain their First, there was the abidintegrity. ing influence of Catholic homes, whose a tmosphere was religious and patriotism: next in value should be mentioned the sympathy. the respect, the almost reverence with which the country people surrounded them." So that, though the worried superior of a modern seminary might wonder what sort of priests would be likely to emerge from study halls that were hut the kitchens of country houses and over which the good woman of the house presided as Dean of Studies, sometimes it seems to me that the old Irish priests of Father MacConalogue's period had a sympathy with and a knowledge and understanding of the people amongst "-horn they were destined to labour that can only come after Years of missionary work on the part of the j-oung men who have sPent their formative years in what, after all, must necessarib.- be the artificial atmosphere of a Wonderfully culr esidential college. tured, too, were those old men who came forth from our country classical Their secular education was schools. based on a really extensive knowledge of the great literatures of Greece and Rome. as distinguished from the smattering of Latin and the modicum of Greek that in this period—when as
somebody has put it, young people are ever being taught "less and less about more and more"—pass for a classical education; and it is doglatful if any system of education was ever devised that was so calculated to make men broad-minded, tolerant, and wise as that based on the Ancient Classics. Again I say perhaps only the outstanding men of the generation of Irish
priests that were: educ:c like MacCloskey's Classicai School have s urvived. But be that as it may, anyone who has ever been privileged to enjoy the old-world Irish hospitality of T ermonnamongan Parochial House and the delight of Father MacConalogue's society cannot keep from putting to himself the Uneasy question: In spite of all our expensive and showy educational systems have the educated classes of the present the culture, the charm, the refinement, the generosity, and the thoughtfulness for others that seemed to mark so many of the generation to which Father MacConalogue belonged?

"An' when were come home, I'll play for you. Would you like?' Without waiting for an answer, he flitted over to the other side of the room, where stood an open piano. Then, seating himself with a grace at strange variance to his conversation, he commenced to play. Music? It was a music that lilted and whispered, that cajoled and promised. Strange, indeed, for a child of five years. But to Carew nothing was strange now. He was absorbed in contemplation of the figure at the piano. The little fingers flitted over the keys nimbly, and a music that seemed not of this world filled the room. Christmas. The very spirit of the season was here in the fortn of a young child. Just as abruptly as it had started, the music ceased. The boy again seated himself on the footstool, and gazed into the glowing embers.

Ten-year-old Tommy had a reputation for being unusually wild, an unfortunate characteristic which resulted in his being sent home regularly in disgrace from his friends' parties. Came one night when his return was unusually prompt. His mother, without question as to the cause, led him off for the customary spanking and put him to bed. Later he was questioned by his father. "Well. Tommy. I expect you've been a bad boy again?" There was the fire of pent-up sarcasm in Tommy's reply: "The party isn't till to-morrow night." Mrs. Robinson would never take • her husband's golf seriously. She was one of those people to whom all games are an absolute mystery. One day she accompanied him to the links and followed him round, grumbling all the way. At last he landed in a bunker, and spent some time floundering about in the sand. His wife sat down on the top of the bunker, opened a novel, and said, quite affably, "You see darling, I knew perfectly well you could do all your playing in one place if you wanted to.
