As early as February, of this year. the Pope protested in an address to parish priests in Rome against the violation of this second undertaking. To the Holy See's charge that Italy has violated Article 44 of the Concordat, providing for the friendly solution of disputes between Church and State, the Italian Government replies by asserting that the Holy See has broken Article 45, bearing on the non-political nature of Catholic Action organisations. It is understood that the Holy See protests that if there are complaint: that the Catholic Actionists were iv' ing up in politics, Italy's plain dm t was to appeal to Article 44. Meanwhile, the dispute is being eagerly, though calmly. discussed by unofficial sympathisers on both sides. The ;nhabitants of Vatican City are delighted to see their newspaper, the "Osservatore Romano." suddenly thrust in the forefront of Italian journals, hundreds of eager buyers besieging its offices every afternoon at the hour of publication. There is little sign amongst the pe,. pie of Rome of any desire to make trouble on their own account, though every hotel buzzes daily with discus. sion of the topic.

MARY /S MOTHER OF GOD "Who is Mary?" men sometimes ask. "and whence her privileges, prerogatives, and power?" The answer, proposed as a dogma of Faith, and -springing spontaneously from the pious conviction of the Faithful. is brief and cryptic yet apt and relevant. Mary is the Mother of r,.- . Despite the heresy of Nestorius. ?' Catholic dogma —accepted long bel his time—clearly defined at the C. • : cil of Ephesus, fifteen hundred yeat, ago, has been handed down to us intact, not always unchallenged, but e ver the truth predominant Despite t he illogical attitude of the Protestant sects, and notwithstanding the unreasonable pose of the Rationalistic school, t he truth still prevails. Mary the Mother of the Saviour. Jesus Christ is by that very fact, the Mother of God. for she is "Mary of whom was born Testis Who is called Christ" (Matthew, Ch. 1, 16 verse). The sublime grandeur and the heavenly beauty of Our Lady, her inestimable privileges, as well as her unlimited intercessory power, all follow. as immediate corollaries, from the simple truth that she is God's Mother. What a wealth of meaning this Pr, implies! If it be true that the gl of the child redounds to the credo the mother, how great must Mary < glory be! If it be a fact that the closer God's creatures stand to t' Creator, the greater is their parti, . ; tion in His perfections, what must the measure of Mary's perfections be R M. Harrington, OP.

Geraldton Notes solicitaAs though in answer to our rain fell in no mean tions of last week, has week-end, and quantity last brought large round smiles to the faces of the "tomato kings" and wheatgrowers in this district. It is estimatabout one inch fell last Sated that timely and Sunday. Gratitude is felt fall, and now we do not this ban to conjure up pictures of the vegetables growers burrowing under the roots of their plants and climbing in to push the plants above ground. T he meeting of citizens held in the 30. Council Chambers on Tuesday, June to protest against the closing of the Harbour Works, was largely attended, and a motion was passed exhorting local representatives in Parliament to do all in their power to induce the Government to keep the Harbour Works going. It was pointed aut that the second berth was almost finished, and it was intended to finish this work with a few men, and then close off construction work, as there was no money About available for a continuance. fiftY men were discharged last week, and it is -learnt that, as the work progresses, more men will be dismissed. Keen regret is expressed for this state of affairs, and it is hoped that ere long a turn for the better will be experienced, and the reproductive work on the Harbour will be continued. A ccording to all reports, Geraldton is to have a recreation ground and sports area, unique in the history of the town. For some timt now that area known as Oueeils Park, near the Cathedral, has been receiving attention, the ground being covered, rolled, and Ohl trees and unattractive levelled. shrubs have been removed and preparations are well in hand for planting cctam portions of the area with ornamental trees and dowers. It is understood that a commodious grandstand, with up to date dressing rooms, is contemplated. Indeed, Geraldton will be justly proud of its new Queen's Park when all these improvements have been carried out. Last Saturday the Catholic Tennis Club commenced a match against the Methodist Tennis Club, on the latter's courts, but rain intervened and the play was postponed until to-day 4Julyllth.). Our team was in the lead at suspension of play, haying the advantage of three sets, 26 games, to Methodist's two sets 21 games. The following are details of last Saturday's play: Men's Doubles: T. Gogan and J. Grameri (Catholics) beat Rev. R. R. Fleming and W. Dunne (Methodists), 6-3; Bro. Goggins and J. Doody Rai lost to R. P. Fleming and E. J. Eaton (M.), 5-6 Ladies' Doubles: Misses Stansfield and Clarke (C.1, beat Misses Waters and Wass (Ma. 6-3. Mixed Doubles: J. Crameri and Miss Heffernan (Ca lost to W.

Fleming and Miss Jean Stokes (3,41, play was suspended owing to rain, the score standing at 4-3 in favAvery our of the Catholic team. dainty afternoon tea was served by the lady members of the Methodist Club, during which it was announced that the match would be continued to-day, weather permitting. Last Sunday the Geraldton Tennis Club was to have gone to Mt. Erin, to engage against a team at that centre. Rain, however, fell to make the fanners smile a little, and the match was called off until a later date. Rev. Father .Albrecht, of Tardun, paid a brief visit to Geranium last week -end. Rey. Father Prenderlast, of Mt. Magnet. made a trip to Genildton last Monday, and returned yetterday, Friday. Father Prendergast said that conditions generally were bright around Mt.

CONVENT OF ST. JOHN OF GOD, SUBJ.A00. A ceremony of Reception of the Holy Habit took place in the Convent Oratory on Thursday afternoon—the Feast of the Visitation of the II.V.M. Eleven postulants received the Holy Habit at the hands of his Grace Archbishop Clune, C.SS.R., who was assisted by Right Rev. Monsignor Verling, V.G., PA., and Rev. Father Cunningham. Rev. Fathers P. Donagher and Mitchell, C.SS.R.. were also present Owing to recent illness, His Grace was unable to preach, but as the postulants knelt in the sanctuary with lighted candles, he spoke a few touching words and congratulated them on the step they were about to take. The ceremony was concluded by Benediction of the Most Holy Sacrament given by His Grace. The names of the new novices are as follows: Sister M. Barbara—Ita O'Gorman, Clare, Ireland. Siscter M. Felix--Kathleen Bradley, King's County, Ireland. Sister M. Hilarion—Delia Lyons, Kern., Ireland. Sister M. Marcellinus—Kathleen Conway, Mayo, Ireland. Sister M. Maurice—Stasia Flynn.

Ills Grace the Archbishop, in an eloquent discourse, congratulated the five young Sisters who had offered themselves in the bloom of youth to the "Divine Lover of Souls," whose invitation , in the softly whispered words, "Leave all and follow Me," they had heard and joyfully accepted. His Grace also congratulated the Sisters of St. Joseph on the treasure they had acquired in receiving into their Congregation tiye new members, two aspirants to the religious life, mid the three Sisters who had consecrated their lives to God by the vows of Poverty. Chastity, and Obedience, and had given themselves with their youth, energy, and talents to work for Our Divine Lord in looking after the lambs of His flock. Continuing, His Grace said: We greatly esteem the work done by the Sisters of St. Joseph and all our teaching Orders for the good work they are doing, and have done, for their pupils in training them in God's love and service--the results of which are manifest in the large congregations that assemble in our churches, while the other churches are almost empty, and in the numbers of fervent Catholics who daily receive Holy Communion. In conclusion, His Grace exhorted the young Sisters, and each member of the Community of Sisters, to continue their Christ-like work, to sanctify themselves by living from day to day a truly religious life, and thereby keep up the high traditons of the grand Order to. which they belonged. After the ceremony His Grace the Archbishop, Very Rev. Father Prendiville, Adm.. the Oblate Fathers of Fremantle, and the parents, relatives and friends of the young professed Sisters and the Novices were the guests of t he Rev.

St. Ildephonsus' College Old Boys': Association Football Match. T he grandstawl at Perth Oval held a representative attendance on Wednesday last to see the annual football match between the College and the Association. A slight drizzle made the ground heavy and handicapped the College, but the boys adapted themselves to the conditions as well. as could be expected, and a fast and interesting game, with the result always in doubt, ensued. Good football was forthcoming from both sides, and it is hard to pick out outstanding men. Brother Theophane was a dangerous forward for the College. and four goals came from his nimble foot. F. O'Halloran kicked 2 for the Old Boys. and others who raised two flags included Abbott and Lalor. Ryan was another useful forward for the College. adding to their score. Tom Outridge was a capable umpire, and kept the game fast and open. Brother Sebastian and Dr. Guilfoyle were noticed following the game with interest. The final scores were: College, 5.4 (34 Points' : Old Boys, 6.8 (42 points). Bridge Evening. It is to be hoped the committee, encouraged by the success of the last function, will conduct another bridge evening before the winter is out. The cosy Green Room was well filled on this occasion and everyone enjoyed the play, made more interesting by the novel prize giving. Three hidden numbers were chosen by the president (Mr. R. Bryant). two being high and one low and these were not revealed until the conclusion of the play. The prizes, two bridge sets, and a bridge table were appropriate, and a ladies' committee served delectable refreshments during the evening. Annual Ball. The next fixture of the Association is the Eighth Annual Ball. This year finds a sub-committee working very hard to make the Ball an outstanding sucess. Prices have been reduced to five shillings all round, but the standard of entertainment has, if possible, been increased. Miss D'Arcy's popular orchestra will supply a varied pro. gramme of the latest dance hits. The catering will be done by Mrs. Taylor. and supper will be served in the lesser Y.A Novelties, sparkling Hall. music, the excellent floor and other features should make this event one of the most enjoyable occasions of the season Committee Matters. The committee have been very busy since (heir appointment, and full at -
hundered old boys having now joined up. The new Brother George Memorial fund has been opened by a subscription of £.3 3s. from the Assucciation funds, and it is hoped to build this up materially before the year closes. The next quarterly general meeting will decide what form the memorial will take. Country Members. Each meeting the secretary reads interesting letters from Old Boys scattered all aver the State, who are writing in to express their interest and enthusiasm with the growth of the Association. The secretary will be pleased to furnish the address of any country old boy to any wishing to renew acquainances with college associations. The new blazer is yen- popular, and any old boy who wishes to secure one should write the secretary for an order without delay: a few badges are also available. New Appointments. The resignation of Mr. D. Pratt as publicity officer was received with regret last month, and appreciation of his good work voiced. Mr. Joe O'Halloran is taking over this work, but owing to his going on vacation. publicity work for the ball has been undertaken by Mr. Ted Clifton. As assistant secretary, Mr. George Jeffs finds the ball giving him plenty to do, Mr. Pat McCabe and Kevin Byrne assisting on the sub-committee. Secretary's Address. Mr. S. D.

PERTH, SATURDAY, JULY/ 1, 1931
"For What Hast Thou Come?" The week that is passing has sa dened our community by the priests. Our thoughts are teeseereeeed death of one of our once again brought face to face with a fact that we shrink from. Facing facts is not pleasurable. but it yields profitable lessons. We postpone the thought of death, foolishly assuring ourselves that we can face it better when we grow old. Life upsets that attitude, for experience shows that old age clings more tenaciously to life with each year. Death is a possibility every day we rise. Whether death comes quickly or slowly, life is short. Of all men, be they great or humble, the same May he written, he lived and he died, and the more important thing is how he died.

placed in Why a • maa te r What is nix mission in this world? istence? this transitory life? What is the object or end of This is the first question, and the one before all others, that should be answered by every man in right reason who enters this world. If a mission be given to anyone to perform, it is necessary, first of all, that he should understand the nature of the mission. The question of one's end contains at one and the same time the foundation and guiding principle of human life; the foundation whereon a rational creature builds, as it were, the edifice of his works; the guiding principle, according to Which he ought to shape all his acts. Thus have acted all who have wisely and holily traced out Knowledge of his end is to their course in this mortal life. man what the mark is to an archer, what the looked-for goal is to a traveller, what the compass is to a sailor, what the pillar of fire was to the Israelites in the desert, what the guiding star was to the Magi when they sought the Messias.

That thought it often now, its coming will mean has many advantages. As an eagle swooping on its prey comes the summons of death to him who has never dwelt upon it.

We are passengers passing through. and as such we should feel_ no Money, fame. pleasures, do not sorrow in leaving life behind. bring happiness to their votaries. Watch the dying man who has had no affection for this world, how confidently he goes forth to It is well to bear in mind the good advice of meet his God.

We shall die, and like waters that return no more. we shall fall down into the earth. Life is a passing shadm‘. and its prizes quickly fade. "Bernard. for what ha, thou come into this world?" This is the question which that noble youth, Bernard. the flower of the nobility of Burgundy, who later became the flower of Clairvaux, and the light of the twelfth century. had made his first and greatest consideration. On this his eves were ever bent: and the thought became the inspiration yf his wisdom, the motive of his work, the secret of his sanctity. Let this be the question which each (lay of our lives we must endeavour to face.

The faithful come to the sacred places of worship to draw piety from its chief source by active participation in the Eucharistic Sacrifice. It is really necessary that the faithful should, not assist at the sacred ceremonies like outsiders or mute spectators."—Pope Pius XI. Answer the call of the Pope. Learn to use a Missal at Mass.

The anxiously-awaited Encyclical, the publication of which was announced at the ''Rerum Novarum" celebrations, was made public on the Feast of Pentecost, although it bears the date of The document is slightly May 15. longer than that on Christian Marriage. we begin the first instalment of it in this week's issue. The Encyclical will be known as Quadragesimo Anno. Referring to the newspaper comment on the Encyclical. "The Tablet." London, writes: "Pending the full publication of the new Encyclical in English, we must put Catholic working men and women on their guard against a serious misrepresentation of its teaching. When the Pope defends the right to possess private property, he is protecting the so-called Small Man more than the so-called Big One, lie is not, as antiPapists pretend, "on the side of the millionaires" : because IIis II(illness sternly condemns modern plutocracy and he grants to the State the right to interfere with private ownership 'dor the common good" in appropriate circumstances. What our Holy Father protects. is the justly acquired fruit of honest labour and of honourable skill. Communism disposses milionaires, for a start. Then it gradually loots all the 'Haves,' not excepting those who have no more than a tiny freehold cottage, a pig and half-a-dozen barnyard fowls. A more general diffiusion of property, not excepting land, is a remedy for our social derangement which many deepthinking men favour strongly: but such a remedy would be excluded by the very nature of Communism,"
News and Notes Shortly after celebrating Mass in flallina t a t hedraI, Ireland, and while still in hi< vestments. Father Peter Davis died recently. He was parish priest of Moygawnagh and nearly 70 Years old. Father Davis was a wellknown sportsman. He bred Rathlea. a horse which won the Liverpool Spring Cup in 1910, and later in other hands won the Chester Cup. Father Davis also owned some of the best greyhounds in Ireland. • • • Unknown to the rest of the congregation until after the service, King .Alfonso attended Mass at St. Richard's, Chichester, on a recent Sunday. Seated next to the King was a soldier of the Royal Sussex Regiment. After Mass the King and the soldier had a conversation. Many men of the Royal Sussex Regiment were present. The King departed as quietly as he had arrived in a car of his hosts, Lord and Lady Louis Mountbatten. * • Cardinal Bourne, of Westminster, in a sermon recently at Waltham Cross, counselled men and women to adopt an intimate and natural attitude towards Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, and to avoid the solemn air which is now often adopted. To illustrate what he meant. His Eminence related the following story concernin g the Cure d'Ars (St. John Baptiste Vianneyl and a labourer. Every evening after finishing his work the labourer used to go into the church at Arc and sit down looking towards the tabernacle. The saintly Cure noticed that the man never seemed to be praying: his lips never moved. So one day he asked the man _why he came to the church, and what he did, because apparently he never said any prayers. The workman answered simply: look at Him, and he looks at me." "I "It Would be impossible to get a more perfect definition of a visit to the Blessed Sacrament." said His Eminence "Make a habit of visiting the . . Blessed Sacrament: said His Eminence. "Our Lord is not here ours. There are for His sake, but for some not gain the full fruit people who do of visits to the Blessed Sacrament. because they do pot make their visits reasonable. They have a notion that they must speak ahem only very important things, that t here has to be an attitude of solemnity. • •• Father C. C. Martindale, S.J., who has been and other visiting Natal.

Castledare Interest Month C astledare wishes to express its t hanks to the Prince of Wales Theatre, for granting the Interest Month, to the many who sold tickets, and those who bought them. The returns from the month are most satisfactory. During the four weeks, 228 the first week, 218 the second, 95 the third, 724 the fourth, 1,265 tickets were presented. The Prince of Wales has now decided to accept one shilling, plus tax, on these tickets, leaving Castledare Sd. on each ticket. Castledare receives from the appeal £42 3s 44.

After leaving the Rand. Father Martindale will set out on a tour of Southern and Northern Rhodesia, until the end of this month, when he hopes to return to England. Dean Joseph Brennan, of Broken Hill (N.S.W. 1 celebrated his sacerdotal silver jubilee recently. He was born at Bagnalstown. Co. Carlow, Ireland, in the year 1882. where he received his early education from the Presentation Nuns. Later he attended the De La Salle Brothers' School. His theological studies were begun in St. Patrick's Seminary. Carlow, and from there he proceeded to Propaganda College, Rome. About a Year before his ordination, ill-health con;ipelled him to leave Rome, and he completed his studies at St. Patrick's. Carlow, where he was ordained. July 1, 1906, by Bishop Foley. He arrived in Australia at the end of the same year. He came to Broken Hill, but left shortly afterwards to recuperate in Tasmania, returning to the Barrier City in the following year, remaining there for about eight years. For twelve months he was locum tenens at Moarna. For the next four year he was again at Broken Hill. Then he went to Narromine, where he remained for six years. At the end of that period he went on a trip to Ireland, and on his return, six years ago, he was appointed Administrator of the Cathedral and raised to the dignity of Dean a few years later. Dean Brennan introduced the Marist Brothers to the Silver City. • Miss Kathryn Roth, an American evangelist, recently sued, in the Glasgow Sheriff Court. the Scottish Protestant League for £411 for breach of contract. It was stated that Miss Roth. before leaving America, had contracted with the League to conduct a five months' campaign at a guaranteed figure of £500. All her expenses were to be borne by the League. and she was to be paid at the rate of £20 per week. Miss Roth stated that she arrived in Scotland on October 27, 1930. and began her work on the following day. In the next four weelcs instead of receiving four payments of £20 each, she only received £29 in all. Miss Roth said that before she became an evangelist she had been an actress. She left the stage fourteen Years ago. Her reason for giving up the campaign was because Mr. Ratcliffe told her that he could not give her more than £5 per week. Speaking of her earnings in the S tates, she said that in New York City she was paid by freewill offerings, which varied from 50 dollars (£10, per week in the summer to 125 dollars (251 per week in the winter.

What is remarkable. in the face of these facts, if facts they are, is that such immense damage could be done by this foreign element and their riff-raff followers.

Last month saw an impressive Catholic spectacle at York (England), one which has now become an annual event. Holy Mass has again been celebrated in the ruins of the famous St. Mary's Abbey, the mother church of Fountains. This ancient Benedictine fabric is private property, being in the grounds of one of Yorkshire's learned societies: hut for some years past that body has courteously permitted the catholic pilgrims to have access to the ruins and to have Mass sung at the ancient altar place. A year or two ago Cardinal Bourne was the chief dignitary taking part. This year the Mass was sting by the Bishop of Middlesbrough, Rt, Rev, Dr. Shine, K.C.H.S., a native of Tipperary. The pilgrimage programme at York includes, every year, besides the Mass in the Abbey ruins, a procession to the old "Shambles," to visit the house of Margaret Clitherow, one. of the EngliSh martyrs; a visit also to the historic Bar Convent, where the martyr's hand is preserved, and a service on the Knavesmire. near the spot where some of the York martyrs won their crown. • Archbishop Cassulo, Apostolic Delegate to Canada, officiated at the Solemn Requiem Mass celebrated in the Basilica. Quebec, for Cardinal Rouleau, Archbishop of Quebec, who died recently. In the sanctuary were thirty Archbishops and Bishops. The Governor General was represented by Viscount Duncannon, his son. while Mr. Bennett, the Federal Prime Minister, attended with several other members of the Cabinet. No funeral oration was delivered in accordance with the wish expressed by the late Cardinal but his last testament, written a few weeks before his death, was read. One passage of this document says: "To my brothers in religion I offer my thanks for their charity: I beg them to pardon me the faults I. may have committed and forget any bad examples I may have given them."

Among the refugees of the burnt Spanish convents who have reached London are Patricia Whitehead, whose parents live at Brentford. and Sheila Malone, the daughter of a business man in Torquay. They were at the Sacred heart Convent at Chsumartin de la Rosa, five or six miles from Madrid. "It was not until May 13 that we in t he Convent of the Sacred Heart felt in any danger," said Miss Whitehead. "Then, during an English lesson, one of the Sisters came in and said that every girl must be out of the school within an hour. There were about 120 of us altogether.

SOCIAL NOTES : By "KATHLEEN"
A name was called up from the mists of memory the other day by Cardinal Hayes, of New York, at a gathering there of hundreds of Catholic women interested in the Cause of the canonisation of the great nun-foundress, His EminMother Elizabeth Seton. ence urged patience on the part of those who were seeking her canonisation since, he pointed out, such processes consume a considerable length of time. Franklin D. Roosevelt, State Governor of New York, who is a distant relative of the great nun, in a letter to his Eminence, said that in his family they had "many traditions of the saintly character of Mother Seton." it is not inappropriate to give a short biographical notice of this great soul, who accomplished much during her brief life for the poor, for Christian education, and charity:
Blankets ,warm clothing, and groceries have been bought. The organisers heartily thank all who helped to make the evening such an outstanding success. * • Miss Jarnice Adair, the cinema actress ,is a sister of Rev.

The members of the Board addressed the meeting in turn, and judging from the comprehensive and lucid manner in which each reviewed the various phases Of the society's activities since the last general conference, the society is distinctly fortunate in having members of such capability and zeal to act as a governing body. Of paramount importance, of course, was the question of increasing the membership, but, apart from this, perhaps the most salient feature of the addresses was the importance attached to the Catholic atmosphere which pervades the society. This is, in fact, the fundamental basis on which the society exists. As was pointed out, the various friendly societies rank almost equal f rom the temporal point of view, but the Hibernian Society bas the additional advantage of being the only organisation of its kind in Australia which limits its membership to practical Ca tholies only, and for this reason it has the commendation and approval of the Church itself. • St. Mary's Branch, Leederville.

Reports were received showing that the second Hibernian euchre party and dance, in aid of the parish funds, was a very great success, and the members are commended for the manner in which are supporting the officers in selling tickets and attending these functions.

Miss Josephine Colrean held a delightful dance in the Premier Hall, East Perth, on Monday evening last. It was refreshing to see such a fine attendance, for which much credit is certainly due to the oragnisers. A special fea. ture, which was so favourably commented on during the evening was the music which was supplied by Miss Nora D'Arcy's three-piece orchestra. The instrumentalists, with the exchange to x ylophone and clarionet, together with popular chorus items, gave a variety, which was agreeably enjoyed by all. Mr. A. V. Rose acted as MC.
The weekly euchre party was held in the School Hall on Tuesday evening last, and was largely attended. Miss Glaskin and Mr. W. Goode, in winning eleven games, divided the first and second prizes. The golden casket was won by Mr. E. McDonald. of Bayswater, No. 23.

Miss Kathleen Franklin, who is representing the Children of Mary in the popular competition, will commence her last week of activity on Monday next, and the programme arranged is as follows: Monday, concert and dance, in the Maylands Town Hall, which is being arranged by Miss Heather Power: Tuesday, euchre party and dance, in the Convent School Hall: Wednesday, House party at the residence of Mrs. Orrell's, 8 Ethel-street, North Perth: Thursday, House party, at the residence of Mrs. Meehan, Hill-street, Bayswater; Saturday, House party, at the residence of Mrs. Franklin, Conroystreet, Maylands. A large representative meeting was held on Sunday evening last, when final arrangements were made for the dosing of the popular competition. Owing to a clash of dates, the final date of the closing of the competition has now been fixed for Monday, August 3, at 10 p.m. On Monday, August 10, another social e vening will be held in the School Hall, and at which His Grace Archbishop Chute has signified his intention of being present, and will crown the successful popular lady with the good wishes of the Catholics of Maylands. As this will be the first occasion for a long period that His Grace will be our guest, it is to be hoped that Catholics will reserve that evening and accept the invitation of Dr. O'Hurley to attend and give him a right royal welcome. A large attendance wil also indicate our appreciation of the good work done by the four ladies in the competition.

I am thinking that, if they do not collect a pennant, the winning team will have to put up a great deal of oppostion to take it out of their reac.h. At the club we have arrived at the conclusion that self-praise is some sort r f a recommendation—much better than none at all. Mr. G. Purves, one of our most enthusiastic members, left recently for a trip to Scotland. We wish him a bon voyage and a safe return. We take this opportunity of welcoming to our club Mr. Brian Kinnane, celebrated player from South Australia, who was first man for that State in the Interstate matches held there last Christmas. Mr. Kinnane, whom we hope will make a prolonged stay in the West. should do much to raise the standard of tennis in the Association. On behalf of the club, I wish to con.

Members are reminded that lists of the pennant fixtures are now available, and can be had on application to the captains of their respective teams. Members are also asked to note well the fact that the entries for the following championship events close on July 26: Men's Singles, Women's Singles, Women's Doubles. These matches will commence on August 2, and will be played on the following Sunday mornings, so as not to interfere with the regular club play. A certain old lady in an English village was so concerned about one of the villagers who was unable to write that she persuaded the village schoolmaster to give him some lessons. Some time later she met the villager and said to him: Well. George, I suppose you are now able to read the Bible fairly easily) " ' Lor' bless you, mum.- he replied.

The Question Box Questions about the doctrine and practice of the Church will be answered in this section weekly. Inquirers are to be as brie! and clear as possible. St. Stanislaus. St. Stanistaus Koshka was born in Poland in 1551, and died in Rome at the early age of eighteen. Born of noble parents. he was sent to a Jesuit College in Vienna to be educated, and conceived the idea of entering the Jesuit In spite of strenuous opposiOrder. tion on the part of his family, he persevered in his intention, and making the journey to Rome on foot, became a Within a year novice in the Order.

The foundation stone was laid by the exiled Pope Alexander III., During the and consecrated in 1182. French Revolution it became a "Temple of Reason," and after varying fortunes was restored to the Church in 1802. Of special note in the Cathedral are the triple facade, the sculpturing, ancl the rose windows. It contains also the Crown of Thorns and a relic of the True Cross. Symbol of the Pelican. T he pelican is often used in Sacred Art as a symbol of Our Lord, and particularly of the Blessed Eucharist. The reason is that, according to legend, the pelican nourishes its young on its own blood, and suggests the Blessed Sacrament, in which Our Lord nourishes the souls of the faithful with His Flesh and Blood. In this sense we find reference to Our Lord in the Eucharistic hymn. "Adoro Te."

Royal Comic Opera Season New Scope for Miss Brunton. When J. C. Williamson. Ltd., re-engaged Dorothy Brunton for a new Australian tour, it was naturally necessary to find for her a medium that would give full scope -for the diversified talents that have made her an idol of playgoers in all parts of the world. A play was wanted in which she would have an oportunity to display the lively sense of comedy with which she has been associated in other musical shows, and the strong dramatic sense which characterised her work with Mr. Guy Bates Post in The Climax" in Australia and London, and in "Leah Kleschna" throughout South Africa: and, of course, her vocal work. Such a play the firm have found in the musical story "Dearest Enemy," which will be presented at His Majesty's Theatre on Saturday, July 18. In the character of Betsy Burke, an impulsive, lovable young girl with Irish wit and the spirit of a new world dominating even her •heart, Miss Brunton will make her reappearance to Perth theatregoers just as her many friends would have her. Betsy Burke will be talked of-the scandal of her first appearance and her unconventional meet ing with her dearest enemy, her passionate declarations, her love for her man and her country-will be matters for discussion in many a home where the name of Dorothy Brunton is already so well and favourably known. The beautiful costumes and settings for this musical comedy make a vivid appeal to the eye And the specially selected cast and chorus of R.1 which surround the star promise a fine entertainment.
Dublin Congress, 1932 Pilgrims from Middle Western States of America. Definite news is now to hand of the arrangements for • the. s.s. "Republic," of the U.S. Lines, which has been chartered by the Fathers of the Maynooth Mission to China attached to St. Columban's. Nebraska. Three Archdioceses and seven Dioceses are sending their official pilgrimages on this ship. Under the leadership of His Excellency Archbishop Beckman. of Dubuque. the entire pilgrimage will sail from New York on June 13. 1932. The following Archdioceses and Dioceses will be represented: Dubuque. Milwaukee, New Orleans, Buffalo. Davenport, Erie, Fort Wayne. Harisburg, and Omaha. Special trains have been chartered to bring the pilgrims from the middlewestern States to Chicago and thence to Washington. where the formal religious opening of the pilgrimage will take place on Sunday morning.

Congress Badges and Hymn Books. Congress badges and Congress hymn books have now been issued, and already there has been a huge demand for these. The staff in Lower Abbey. street are busily engaged in despatching supplies to all parts of the country. The badge is a reproduction of the Congress Crest. Its form is based on the design of the Cross .)f Cong. For adults it is in gold gilt, and the lettering is inset in dark blue enamel. That for children is silver gift, including the wording Badges can be had either as brooches, pendants. or studs. The price of the badge for adults is one shilling, and for children four pence. The Congress hymn book contains, in addition to the Latin hymns, several hymns in !loth Irish and English. Staff notation is given for all hymns-Latin, Irish. English, and it is to be sold at t wo pence per copy. Congress S - ouvenirs. Several enquiries have recently reached the Congress office regarding the issue of souvenirs of the Eucharistic Congress. The Congress badge is the official ,ouvenir of the Congress, and at the moment there is no intention of issuing any other. A dvertisements are being canvassed for certain souvenir books. These are gene unofficial productions, being pro-
t ;cerl in the ordinary way by firms engaged in that business. They have no connection with Congress organisation. Floral Decorations. Many householders have taken the hints in reference to display of flowers e i the processional routes. Biennials should be sown shortly to give a good display at Congress period next year. Antirrhinums, Brompton Stocks, Canterbury Bells. Sweet William, etc., are easily grown from seed. and cost very little if plants are obtained in this way. Congress Subscriptions.

Australia and Australians Superior-General of De La Salle Brothers' Impressions. The Very Rev. Brother Philip. Assist. ant Superior-General of the De La Salle Brothers, arrived in Melbourne by the R.M.S. Drama recently. His visit to Australia is for the purpose of inspecting the various houses of his Order, and Melbourne is his first place of call in the Commonwealth. It is seventeen years since an Assistant Superior-General of the De La Salle Brothers previously visited Australia, and the Very Rey. Brother Philip's visit is necessarily of great interest to his Order throughout Australia. The head house of the De La Salk Brothers is in Brussels, Belgium. The Very Rev. Brother Philip way given his first Australian welcome at St. Ignatius' Parish. Richmond (Vic.'. It was an enthusiastic one. Responding to the speeches of welcome, the distinguished visitor said: When he left England, forty days ago, he tried to imagine what he would see in Australia. He did not know much of the character of the Australian people, but he determined to see all he could during his stay in the Commonwealth. Landing in Perth, he found a beautiful place by the seashore. with delightful surroundings. His first glimpse of Australia was very pleasing. Ile was greatly struck with the symmetrical civic design of Adelaide. and the beautiful mountains overlooking the city gave the place a distinctive setting. Ile was much impressed with Melbourne and the church of St. Ignatius. Richmond. The ornate steeple ,added beauty to the church. Ile would take away with him pleasing memories of his visit to Richmond, and of the splendid entertainment given by the•boys of the school. He had seen many places in other countries. hut it would be hard to find anywhere a better and more family-like parish than that at Richmond. He would long remember his visit to Richmond People talked of the big things done in America, but Australia had already accomplished much, and was destined to be one of the top countries of the world. Catholic education was well established in Australia. and in the Catholic schools the pupils were trained t o love and serve God. and be good citizens. This country was suffering from economic depression at present. but he was sure, with its great pros. pects and resources, and with its enterprising people, that Australia would right itself before long. Not only would Australia assert itself as a nation. but he was satisfied that it would take a foremost place in righteousness and in the quality of its citizens. He would ask God to bless this lovely Austral land and its warm-hearted people. QUEBEC.

All through my life, like a beautiful dream, With heart and smile loving and bright, . 0 wonderful mother, you've been a sunbeam - That lighted my pathway to right. you were always so willing tu render me aid, No matter how hard 'twas to do. you've lived and you've prayed to help this small maid— None other could do this, but you. Times I was good, and times I was bad: But I've tried hard to live up to you. The reason I'm good is the mother I've had And all she was willing to do. Many, before me, have tried to define The meaningful word which spells mother. But to me it speaks everything next to Divine: Much grander than any another. I've tried .and I've tried to think what to say, To tell you in thoughts deep and true; And the best I know how, on this Mother's Day Is, "Mother, may God bless you." Sister M. A., O.S.D. WORDS OF WISDOM. So long as there is sin in the world, so long must there be Penance. We shal receive in heaven the reward fo: all our losses, but only if we are patient. Ardent desires are wings by means of which t he saints raised themselves to union with God. by a perfect love. The suul that loves prayer is a perfumed flower, and such a soul enjoys all the treasures which can be enjoyed in this life. The telling id a falsehood is like the cutting of a sword; though the wound may heal, the scar will remain. It is a mean trait, but there are people who can always be trusted to talk unkindly about others. We must not be barren trees, grafted on the dead stock of this world, but living trees, grafted into the one fruitful tree, Jesus Christ. The friend of God must be as a little child, as the Gospel tells us, and when the soul is quiet there is no difficulty in knowing what must be done. ' Poverty in pious minds is the guar. dian of humility, venerable to men and angels, and at the same time the brightest ornament of saints. So long as you are in this world, you 'must try and live as dead to self-will, and so yuu will conquer the law of our ,evil will. REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD GO TO DAILY MASS. I. ( 11 To assist at Daily Mass is a practice that is both easy and consoling. Yes, easy. Don't run away with the idea that the task is only for saints and is qUite beyond you. It is nothing of the kind. It is easy. Perhaps not at first: but soon, very soon, it becomes a high and holy pleasure. ( 2) All the treasures of gold and precious stones that the earth contains are outweighed by one Mass. (3) By Daily Mass your understanding will be enlightened and your will strengthened. (41 Daily Mass will keep your conscience clean. Spiritual strength and encouragement are the great bulwarks against temptation. Men whose hearts are full of spiritual comfort will not descend to sinful pleasures. Moreover, since the Holy Sacrifice keeps the conscience clean, it extinguishes the fires of Purgatory, irradiates the death-bed with peace, and increases the glory of the e ternity.

THE RECORD.
(51 Daily Mass will bring you into close contact with the Source grace. It will teach you how of all to live on terms of the closest intimacy with God. Life has many vicissitudes. or later the shadows will fall Sooner on our path. No one can escape. There will be disappointments, anxieties, the faithlessness of friends, the wiles of enemies, the death of those we love, sickness, perhaps old age with its feebleness and humiliations. Apart from those who die in early life, no one can escape the cross. Sooner or later it presses on every shoulder. In our distress we need a true friend and consoler. Where shall we find one that can be compared with Jesus Christ? Nowhere. "My burden," He says, "is light, and MY yoke is sweet. Come to Me and I will give you rest."

On Holy Saturday. morning, as the household of Haile Selassie I., Emperor of Ethiopia, proceeded in pomp to St George's Church for the baptism of his Majesty's fifth child, three poor families presented themselves with their babies. but were unceremoniously driven away. Word of this reached the Emperor, who remarked immediately: "Before God there are neither great nor small; all souls are equal," and ordered the families to be called back and presented to him. The Negus received them with a happy smile. The baptism of their children would take place the same day as that of his son, he said, and added, "This child shall have my eldest daughter. the Princess Tenane-Work, for its godmother; this one shall be held at the font by Prince Asfao-Wossen, and to this little fellow I myself will be the godfather." Such acts have endeared Haile Selassie to his people. Ethiopa has been predominantly Christian for centuries, but not in union with the Holy See. The Emperor is known as an enlightened ruler who has shown himself friendlp to the Catholics within his realm. THE THEW:ABLE TRIAL. Amongst other trials there is one through which all souls must pass if God desires to lead them to perfect faith; and this is the disappearance of sensible graces, with dryness and interior suffering. Many souls during this painful but salutary crisis do not know how to bow their judgment and their will before the degrees of Divine wisdom: they know neither how to resign themselves nor how to enter upon the path to which God is calling them. But when we humbly submit our ma. son, light comes to us; we realise that

A religious atmosphere is certainly needed in home life if it is to pass into outdoor life in affairs of ieereation and marriage."

Noce FROM IRELAND—
Famed Glendalough--Scene of St.Kevin's Labours It is an :cresting coincidence, says writer in the Dublin a “apecial. 'Standard,- that the feast of Saint Kevin occurs at a time of the year when far-famed Glendalough, the scene his labours and "the place of his resurrection,- is visited by thousands a people attracted thither by the wondrous scenery of "the Glen of the two Lakes" and the celebrated ecclesiastical remains of the Seven Churches. With perhaps the exception of Killarney, no part of Ireland can boast of scenery so strikingly beautiful as this district of County Wicklow, and Glendalough can claim to be unique, as far as Ireland is concerned, in its glorious combination of scenic loveliness and hallowed Christian antiquities. St. Kevin. or Coemghen (the "fairbegotten"), Abbot of Glendalough, who founded its monastery and inaugurated its ecclesiastical fame, is one of the most celebrated of the Irish saints. Round his name are woven legends almost without number, and the incidents of his saintly life are commemorated in prose and verse in Irish, Latin, English and other languages. The birth of St. Kevin is usually assigned to the year 496, and his death to the year 618. More than 1300 years hake passed since the latter event took place. and yet in Glendalough to-day the name of St. Kevin is everywhere -St Kevin's Church, St Kevin's Kitchen, St. Kevin's Bed, and such names are constant reminders. . . . As to the scenery of the famous valley. Thackerary was right when he wrote in his "Irish Sketch Book" (1843): "Only fancy can. describe the charms of that delightful place." The famous English novelist, travelling as "Mr. Titmarsh," visited Glendalough in the summer of 1842. "Directly you see it." he wrote. "it smiles at you as innocent and friendly as a little child: and once seen, it becomes your friend for ever, and you are always happy when you think of it." Incidentally, the author, who was no friend to Catholicity, makes a note of a scene he witnessed on his way to Glendalough one Sunday: "The road along which we went." 'he notes, "was thronged with happy figures of people plodding to or from Mass. A chapel' yard was covered with grey cloaks, and at a little inn hard by stood numerous carts, cars, shandy-dans, and pillioned horses Avaiting the end of the prayers." Many distinguished visitors to Ireland during the past century or so have made it a point of including Glendalough in their itinerary, and several of them have left on record ac. counts of their impressions. Sir Walter Scott went there in July. 1825, and, although lame and fairly advanced in years, he insisted upon performing the Perilous climb into the cave known as St. Kevin's Bed. His son-in-law, Lockhart, the historian, who accompanied him, wrote to his .wife: "We then proceeded to Glendalough. a wild valley, with a small, gloomy lake surrounded by bleak desolate hills. . Here are the ruins, more or less entire, of seven churches, and 110 feet still remaining of one of the celebrated round towers. The Cathedral is roofless. In that called St. Kevin's Kitchen Mass was daily performed within these eight months. Appearance of e xtreme antiquity further back than any church I have seen in England. . . . the bed of St. Kevin is a hole in the sheer rock, in which two or three may Sit. . . . The difficulty of getting into this place has been exaggerated, as also the danger, for it would only be falling ao or 40 feet into very deep water. Yet I was never more pained than when your papa, in spite of all remonstrances, would make his way, crawling along the precipice. He succeeded, and got in—the first lame man that e ver tried it." R egarding Scott's visit. Lockhart tells another story which is worth recalling. During the excursion to County Wicklow the party were the guests of Lord Chancellor Plunkett at his residence, 'Old Connaught. near Bray. When they w ere about to leave .Glendalough and the Seven Churches, Lord Plunkett Whispered to the local woman who had acted as their guide that the visitor Nligs a poet and a great man. "Poet" said she. "D---1 a bit of him : but an honourable gentleman. -he gave me half-a-crown!" T he age, the architectural features, and the historic associations of the r ains of the Seven Churches have occuPied the attention of many noted srniolars. including Dr. John O'Donovan and Eugene O'Curry, on the arch-

A Soggarth's Social Memories
I was talking to my aunt, Catherine McNabb (writes Vincent McNabb, 0.P., in the "Irish Rosary"), a short time before her death. So stout of will, and of foot, was she that her four-score years could net prevent her walking fasting some three miles to chapel and back on Communion Sundays. She was the last of the name to dwell at Kintagh, the family homestead on Quintin Bay in the Lower Ads, facing the Isle of Man. M y town-fed soul being sick of machine-made and machine-canned goods, I led our talk towards the rearing and making cl things by hand. Care was needed in every word of mine. A false emphasis might confirm all her suspicions that I was a Socialist; a word of disrespect for self-binders or baker's bread might endanger my claim to represent the average family intelligence. I must have used more than my wonted tact to have led her to speak of the old days before Cumberland coal had quenched the peat fire, and Manchester goods had unedged the fine artistic taste for home-spun. I think she told me how every home, Kintagh like the rest. had its spinning wheels. on which the women of the household spun the wool from their own sheep and, the flax from their own fields. Of course I had to speak as if on tip-toe to one of four-score years who almost worshipped the efficiency of Belfast. with its rich linen princes and its unspeakable slums. I found out that the last of the Kintagh spinning wheels, after a long im prisonment in the cart -shed, had met its death by fire during one of the periodic outbreaks of clearing up. One mystery of the hand-work was still unplumbed; I ventured upon its discovery by saying: "You all spun. Was there a But did you all weave? loom as well as spinning wheels in Kintagh?" "No." she answered with a quiet smile at my town ignorance, "we had no loom. We only spun. The weavers would weave our spinning." "Where did the weavers come from?" asked, rejoicing at her answer as if it was a "view-hullo" in sight. She pointed, through the window that framed one of the loveliest bays of Ireland, to a little row of fishermen's cottages built on what looks like a reef running out into the Irish Sea. The row of fishermen's cottages were now one summer bungalow (with a rock garden!) for someone who liked sometimes to escape from the efficiency of Belfast or, what it London? "The weavers lived there." "But." T answered with surprise, "I thought it was fisherfolk who lived t here " "Yes." my aunt said, "they were In the winweavers and fisher-folk ter they stayed at home to weave: in the slimmer they went on the sea, to fish." It was as if something thundered in my ears; and something flashed like The Hamletlightning in my mind. seemed to mutter: mane, tekel. phares. The lightning seemed to show me why hand-woven linen and hand-caught fish were no longer on Kintagh table: and why, with the death of Catherine McNabb. Kintagh would keep the name no more. A little later T was lecturing on The lectures Ethics at Cambridge. were wholly unofficial because the University. on being asked to recognise an
official course of lectures on the Ethics of St. Thomas, had not thought they would be of sufficient value to be recognised. Recent events in the history of neo-Malthusiams hardly seem to justify the academic optimism. One day a loung Cingalese student honoured me by having speech with this old western soggarth. I played my part with scrupulous fairness, beseeching him. on bended knees of the mind, not to mimic what is so often called Western Civilisation. As we were at luncheon and Friday fish was our chief food. I asked him casually if they had good fish in Ceylon: He answered emphatically: "Much better than I have tasted in England." "Ah," I rejoined, "you have never really tasted the fish that are caught round these islands." My memory recalled the fresh fish I myself caught in the Trish Sea and ate at Kintagh. Again,I could hear the blue-homespunclad fisherwomen of Cullercoats crying, "Buy my fish in the streets of Newcastle-on-Tyne I went on: "Since they have brought in steam-trawlers and mass-fishing, real fresh fish are almost an impossibility.I do not say that fresh fish are not to be had in London. But. I know fresh fish when I eat them. and I tell you, that since coming to London I have eaten fish with Dominican regularity e very day, yet never once have I found it fresh."

A peaceable man in a big c ty came upon two youths fighting. 'Let me beg of you," he earnestly besought, "to settle your disputes by arbitration. Each of you choose half-a-dozen friends to arbitrate." Having seen the twelve arbitrators selected to the satisfaction of both sides, the man of peace went on his way rejoicing. Half an hour later he returned that way, and was horrified to find the whole street fighting, while in the distance police whistles could be heard blowing and police rushing to the spot from all quarters. "Merciful heavens! What's the matter now?" the peacemaker asked of an onlooker. "Sure," said the man, "the arbitrators are at work!" Teacher: "Markham, what is• the Equator?" Markham: "An imaginary line, miss, running round the face of the earth." Teacher, facetiously: "And could your mother hang clothes on that line?" Markham: "Yes, miss." Teacher: "And, pray, how do you make that out?" Markham: "Imaginary clothes, miss!"

Thinking to teach him a lesson, she said: "Samuel, what did I buy that hatstand for?" "For seven-and-sixpence,' answered Samuel promptly; "but you said I wasn't to tell anybody." Old Lady: "Captain, •will you please come down and see what's the matter with my stateroom? It's jumping around terribly."
