LABOUR AND CAPITAL
Full Text of the Pope's Encyclical Letter "On Reconstructing the Social Order"
The Restoration of the True Guiding Principal of Economics. Still another aim, intimately connected with the preceding, must be kept in view. Just as the unity of human society cannot be built upon classwarfare, so the proper ordering of economic affairs cannot be left to free competition alone. From this source have proceeded in the past all the errors of the "individualistic" school. This school, ignorant or forgetful of the social and moral aspect of economic matters, teaches that the State should refrain in theory and practice from interfering therein, because these possess in free competition and open markets a principle of self-direction better able to control them than any created intellect. Free competition, however, though within certain limits just and productive of good results, cannot be the ruling principle of the economic wind; this has been abundantly roved by the consequencts that have followed from the free rein given to these dangerous individualistic ideals. It is therefore very necessary that economic affairs be once more subjected to and governed by a true and effective guiding principle. Still less can this function be exercised by the economic supremacy Which within recent times has taken the place of free competition; for this is a headstrong and vehement power, which, if it is to prove beneficial to mankind, needs to be curbed strongly and ruled with prudence. It cannot, however, be curbed and governed by itself. More lofty and noble principles must therefore be sought in order to control this supremacy sternly and uncompromisingly; to wit, social justice and social To that end all the institucharity. tions of public and social life must be imbued with the spirit of justice; and this justice must above all be truly operative, must build up a juridical and social order able to pervade all economic activity. Social charity should be, as it were, the soul of this order and the duty of the State will be to proThis tect and defend it effectively. task it will perform the more readily, if it free itself from those burdens which, as We have already declared, are not properly ts own. Further, it would be well if the various nations in common counsel and endeavour strove to promote a healthy economic co-operation by prudent pacts and institutions ,since in economic matters they are largely dependent one upon the other and need one another's help If then the members of the social body be thus reformed, and if the true directive principle of social and economic activity be thus re-established, it will be possible to say, in a sense, of this body what the Apostle said of the mystical body of Christ: "The whole body, being compacted and fitly joined together, by what every joint supplieth, according to the operation in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body, unto the edifying of itself in charity." Within recent times, as all are aware, a special syndical and corporative organisation has been inaugurated which, in view of the subject of the present Encyclical, demands of Us some mention and opportune comment. The State here grants legal recognition to the syndicate or union, and thereby confers on it some of the features of a monopoly, for in virtue of this recognition, it alone can represent respectively workingmen and employers, and it alone can conclude labour contracts and labour agreements. A ffiliation to the syndicate is optional for everyone; but in this sense only can the syndical organisation be said to be free, since the contribution to the union and other special taxes are obligatory for all who belong to a given branch, whether workingmen or emlabour-contracts ployers, and the drawn up by the legal syndicate are It is true that likewise obligatory. it has been authoritatively declared that the legal syndicate does not exclude the existence of unrecognised trade associations. The corporations are composed of representatives of the unions of workingmen and employers of the same trade or profession, and as true and genuine organs and institutions of the State, they direct and co-ordinate the activities of the unions in all matters of cornmon interest. S trikes and lock-outs are forbidden. If the contending parties cannot come to an agreement, public authority intervenes.
Little reflection is required to perceive the advantage of the institution thus summarily described: peaceful collaboration of the classes, repression of Socialist organisations and efforts, the moderating influence of a special ministry. But in ordet to overlook nothing in a matter of such importance, and in the light of the general principles stated above, as well as of that which .We are now about to formulate, We feel bound to add that to Our knowledge there are some who fear that the State is substituting itself in the place of private initiative, instead of limiting itself to necessary and sufficient help and assistance. It is feared that
feet in every respect, corresponded nevertheless in a certain measure to right reason according to the needs and conditions of the •times. That this order has long since perished, is not due to the fact that it was incapable of development and adaptation to changing needs and circumstonces, but rather to the wrong-doing of men. Men were hardened in excessive self-love and refused to extend that order, as was their duty, to the increasing numbers of the people; or else, deceived by the attractions of false liberty and other .errors, they grew impatient of every restraint and endeavoured to throw off all authority. It rei-nains for Us then to tUrn out
HIS HOLINESS POPE PIUS XI. the new syndical and corporative institution possesses an excessively bureaucratic and political character, and that, notwithstanding the general advantages referred to above, it risks serving particular political aims rather than contributing to the initiation of a better social order. We believe that to attain this lastnamed lofty purpose for the true and permanent advantage of the commonwealth, there is need before and above all else of the blessing of God, and in the second place of the co-operation of all men of goodwill. We believe. moreover, as a necessary consequence. that the end intended will be the more certainly attained, the greater the contribution furnished by men of technical, commercial and social competence, and, more still, by Catholic principles and their application. We look for this contribution, not to Catholic Action (which has no intention of -displaying any strictly syndical or political activities), but to Our sons, whom Catholic Action imbues with these principles and trains for the apostolate under the guidance and direction of the Church—of the Church, We say, which in the above-mentioned sphere, as in all others where moral questions are discussed and regulated, cannot forget or neglect its mandate as custodian and teacher, given it by God. However, all that We have taught about reconstructing and perfecting the social order will be of no avail without a reform of manners; of this, history affords the clearest evidence. A t one period there existed a social order which, though by no means per-
attention to the actual condition of t he economic order and to its bitterest adversary and accuser—We mean Socialism. On these We shall pronounce a frank and just sentence; shall examine more closely the root of the present grave evils; and shall indicate the tirst and most necessary remedy, which lies in a reform of morals. CHADGES SINCrl LEO IL13I 1. The Change in Economic Conditions. Since the time of Leo XIII. important changes have taken place, both in economic conditions and in regard to Socialism. In the first place it is obvious to all that the entire economic scene has greatly changed. You are aware, Venerable Brethren and Beloved Children, that Our Predecessor of happy memory had chiefly in mind that economic regime in which were provided by different people the capital and labour jointly needed for production. Ile described it in a happy phrase: "Capital cannot do without Labour, nor labour with Capital." Leofl XIII.'s whole endeavour was to adjust this economic regime to the standards of true order; whence it follows that the system itself is not to he condemned. And surely it is not

vicious of its very nature; but it violates right order whenever Capital so employs the working or wage-eaming c lasses, as. to divert business nomic activity entirely to its and ecobitrary will and advantage, own arwithout any regard to the human dignity of the workers, the social character of economic life, social justice, and the cornmo in t isg6t7clue. that even to-day these economic conditions do not exist exclusively, for there everywhere is economic system which still another a very large and influential embraces of men. There are, for instance, group the cultural classes, who form the agriportion of the human family, andlarger who find in their occupation the means of obtaining honestly and justly needful for their maintenance. what is system, too, has its difficlties and This blems. of which Our Predecessor prospoke repeatedly in his Encyclical. and to which We Ourselves have more than once referred in the present Letter. But it is the capitalistic economic regime that, with the world-wide diffusion of industry, has penetrated everywhere. particularly since the publication of Leo X III's. Encyclical. It has invaded and pervaded the economic and social spheres even of those who live outside its ambit. influencing them, and, as it were, intimately affecting them by its advantages, inconveniences and vices. When we turn our attention. therefore, to the changes which this capitalistic economic order has undergone since the days of Leo XIII., We have regard to the interests, not of those only who live in countries where "capitol" and industry prevail, but of the whole human race Domination has followed from Free Competition. In the first place, then, it is Patent that in our days not alone is wealth accumulated, but immense power and desenitic economic domination is con centrated in the hands of a ft w, and that those few are frequently not the owners, hut only the trustees and directors of invested funds, who :telmin. ister them at' their good pleasure. This powerbecomes particularly irresistible when exercised by those who, because they hold and control money, are able to govern credit and determine its allotment, for that reason supplying, so to speak, the life-blood to the entire economic body, and grasping, as it were, in their hands the very soul of production, so that no one dare breathe against their will. This accumulation of power, the characteristic note of the modern economic order, is a natural result of Icy itless free competition, which permits the survival of those only who are the strongest, which often means those who fight most relentlessly, who pay least heed to the dictates of conscience. This concentration of power has led to a threefold struggle for domination. First, there is the struggle for dictatorship in the economic sphere itself; then the fierce battle to acquire control of the State, so that its resources and authority may be abused in the economic struggles; finally, the s clash between States themselves. This latter arises from two causes: because the nations apply their power and politic-al influence, regardless of circumstances, to promote the economic advantages of their citizens; and be cause, vice versa. economic forces and economic domination are used to decirlepolitical controversies between peoples.

An appeal for the study of the Holy Father's recent encyclical "Quadragesimo Anno," was made at the International Labour Conference at Geneva, in which forty-six countries are represented, by M.

"The Bible--The Inspired Word" Lecture to Newman Society By REV. W. KELLY, S.T.L. We are all familiar with the word Bible. The mere mention of it sends a current of thoughts coursing through the cells of the mind. The Bible—it is the first and last of books. It occupies a place in every man's library, and concerning it voluminous volumes have been written. Take it away and burn it forever, and you at once leave an empty space in the libraries of Europe which the master pens of human genius can never refill; you open a gulf between Paganism and Christianity that can never be bridged over, you destroy the most potent of the various influences which have played a part in the development of our modem civilisation. ?Wen of science and letters will question this latter statement, but their questioning it and their hesitancy to accept it, can never prove it false. Civilisation can never be the outcome of progress in the profane sciences. To civilise you must first Christianise. and this the Bible, which, after all, is but a brief epitome of Christianity, has done in a By the doctrines marvellous way. therein inculcated, man has gone through a startling evolution—not an evolution in Darwin's sense of the word, which is nothing more than a long hop flight from a chimpanzee to evolution an a human being—but which is progress from paganism to Christianity, from darkness to light. If you still doubt the truth of my statement, here is a significant fact When which sends home its truth. printing was invented. in 1540, the first book printed was the Bible, and in less than 50 years no less than one hundred and fifty editions had issued from the printing presses of Europe. Now we know that books are printed to meet the demands of the public, and that if a book is repeatedly issued, it shows that the public wants it No book has exercised such an influence on the thoughts and principles and lives of mankind. Now, what is the secret of this influence? How has the Bible secured this unique position in the estimation of The answer is a the civilised world? simple one: because all men from time immemorial have regarded the Bible as an inspired book—as a set of writings produced under the action of the Holy True, the ideas of our preGhost. decessors on inspiration may have been vague and misty. They unhesitatingly, however, admitted the fact, that These was the important matter. ancient days have long since hidden themselves behind the hills of Time, and we. basking in the illuminating sunshine of a 20th. century enlightenment, find ourselves under the same musty cloud as the ancients in this Perhaps our matter of inspiration. position is somewhat worse. Our ideas on inspiration are just as vague and misty as theirs was, our admission of We may call the fact less certain_ past centuries "the dark ages" if we will, but the same darkness penetrates the brightness of our own. The fault The spirit that is not entirely ours. dominates us is the atmosphere we breathe. The spirit of the age is inquisitive and rationalism and modernism— which are convertible terms—and a few other isms have made us blind to the truth that where the illuminating rays of Faith do not penetrate there you have nothing but impenetrable Faith is the sure torch of darkness. reason. That is the torch I wish you If you light it to light to-night. well; if it glitteri brightly, you will understand more clearly what I have to The brightness of its illuminatsay. ing flame will dispel the misty drakness of human words, and supply for the shortcomings of human intellect. The Bible—the inspired word of How can we know for certain God. that a book or document is inspired? On what evidence does the inspiration Here we are face of the Bible rest? to face with an all-important question, which outside the Catholic Church has If never been satisfactorily solved. you turn to your friends outside the fold and ask what their arguments are for the inspiration of the Bible, the first thing that strikes You is that, whatever those arguments may be like, they cannot be very convincing or efficacious, since, as a matter of fact. they have not succeeded in keeping alive in these bodies a true belief in Many the inspiration of the Bible of them have given up faith in the
Bible as an inspired record. This is .not surprising, for their criterion of judgment in this matter is hopelessly f alse. They tell you the Bible inspired because when they read it they experience a light, a sweetness, and a comfort which they find resulting from no other species of literature. "Thus, they say, the Holy Ghost testifies in their hearts that the words they read are from Him." Thisc subjective criterion is hardly a correct solution, for we are often subject to the same feeling when we read the description of some literary landscape given by some literary genius. Milton's Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained are capable of evoking religious sentiments. Are we then to maintain that Milton was divinely inspired in these productions? If we do our position will be more than unique. Then, again, many people never experience those feelings or emotions at all when reading the Bible Is it then not inspired for them? Others will tell you that the Bible is inspired because the inspired writers have said so. Neither is this answer satisfactory. It presupposes the point at issue, v.g.. that the writer is inspired and cannot tell you false. Then again, the mere statement of a writer that he is inspired is evidently inadequate. Every religious teacher, from Mohammed down, has laid claim to Divine inspiration. Were they, too. inspired? There is only one answer to our question, only one answer which completely satisfies. It is the answer of the Catholic Church. The answer is this: We know the Bible in inspired, because the Church, the living organ of Truth, founded by Jesus Christ, says that it is so. Or let us put it in another ways The only satisfactory proof that a book is inspired by God is if God Himself says it is so. In other words, God must reveal the fact. And the Church declares that there is such a revelation. It was from Jesus Christ and the Apostles that the Church received it, and from the Church teaching originates our belief. But that this argument may shine all the more brightly, you must grasp one face clearly. Try to grasp firmly the fact that the Church is the Divinely commissioned teacher of men, set up by Jesus Christ with the especial purpose of safeguarding and promulgating religiGrasp ous truth untainted by error. this fact clearly. I say, and at once you will see more clearly the argument put forward. You will understand more thoroughly why the Church's authoritative declaration satisfies the all reasonable mind and excludes doubt, so convincing that St. Augustine says: "I would not believe the Gospel did not the authority of the Church move me thereto." I see the more subtle of you with a mountainous difficulty on your lips. You say: Are you not supposing what you want to prove? You cannot prove that the Church is the guardian and promulgator of Truth to me, unless you first admit that the Bible is inspired? This This is does not happen to be true. a difficulty which another lecture might explain. Suffice it here to say that when we have recourse to the Bible to prove certain things about the Church's infallibility we use the Bible not as an inspired book, which, of course, it it—but merely as an authentic. genuine historical document. Thus does Your difficulty vanish. Whence the logical process by which a Catholic arrives at certitude regarding the inspiration of the Bible is the same as that whereby he arrives at certitude about the Real Presence, or any other of the doctrines of Catholic Faith. I4e convinces himself by reason and investigation that the Church is the Divinely constituted teacher of men. He sees that God guarantees her against error. He knows she has never erred in matters of Faith and She has never taught, and Morals. never will teach, that suicide, divorce. He unand birth-control are lawful. derstands all this. He accepts her infallible declaration that the Bible is inspired. The Bible, then, is the inspired Word of God. What exactly does this mean? This is a simple question to which many answers have been given. Some maintained the Bible to be the inspired Word by a reason of a subsequent Their explanaDivine approbation tion would run something like this: The books of Scripture were conceiv-
ed and written according to the light and genius of a human author. Afterwards they received the approbation of the Holy Ghost, or the Church, by being ingrafted into the recognised Bible, or what is more commonly called the "Canon of Scripture." Thus from being books of a human author, open and liable to error, they became the infallible truth of an infallible God and could henceforward be accepted without scruple. To send home the force of their explanation more thoroughly, they use an "ad rem" explanation. They say: You have throughout your city dignitaries of various moulds. Most of them, if not all, employ private secretaries, who day in and day out draw up and file documents according to the demands of business. To these documents the aforesaid dignitaries assign their names, very often in capital letters. Once they do so, the document ceases to be the simple document of a simple clerk, and becomes the document of the aforesaid dignitary. By placing his signature to it, he makes it his own, vouches for the truth of the statements therein contained. So it was, they say, with the inspiration of the Bible. By the approval and sanction of the Church, guided by Divine assistance, these books passed from human to Divine authorship. This explanation, if it were true, would be very acceptable, being rather accommodated to the weakness of our minds. Unfortunately. for us, not very easy and "prima facie' expjlanation is the true solution to difficult problems. The theory explained does not maintain fully all that inspiration implies. Inspiration. etymologically considered, indicates a breathing into—not a breath subsequent to the work being complete, but a breathing concomitant with, or going on while the work is in execution. Whence if a zealous and devoted servant of God writes a book, the Church may signify her approbation and give it her full ecclesiastical sanction and approval, she may go even further, and solemnly declare that the said document is wholly free from all error, but far more than that is implied by inspiration. That a piece o( work be inspiried, God Himself bust in some way have dictated it. This was the conviction of St. Gregory, when he said: "We loyally believe the Holy Ghost to be the Author of scrip, for Ile wrote it who dictated it to be written: He wrote it who inspired its execution." Notwithstanding the aforesaid theory prevailed among Biblical scholars until it was finally discountenanced by the Vatican Synod in terms unmistakeably clear, which said: The Books of Scripture are inspired, not because they were first humanly conceived and written afterwards, receiving Divine approbation, but rather because they were conceived and written under Divine influence. The Bible, then, is the inspired word of God, because it was conceived and written under Divine influence. Now, following a logical trend of thought. we naturally ask ourselves: n what exactly does this inspiration of the Holy Grost consist? Many believed that the assistance of the Holy Spirit was purely negative, that it consisted chiefly in preserving the writer from error and in hindering him from mistating and misrepresenting facts. This explanation does not quiet the inquisitive tendency of the human mind. It is not enough that the Holy Ghost should assist the scribe negatively. It is requisite that God should move him positively to enunciate the truths which he writes. The purely negative assistance of the Spirit safeguarding a man from propounding error and falsehood is what every Pope enjoys, when. as Supreme Teacher, he pronounces "ex cathedra" utterances "urbi et orbi." From our school-books, however, we know that there is a vast difference between Papal Infallibility and Divine inspiration. For inspiration strictly socalled, a direct and positive assistance is required. How does this direct positive assistance affect the Sacred Writet? The whole doctrine o Miblical inspiration is centred round this question if you grasp it thoroughly you will have grasped everything well. That there may be no "fog" when I'm finished, I'm going to guide your steps as carefully as I can over subtle ground. Most of you already know that in the writing of any book or document, three parts may be distinguished: (a) First, you require knowledge of the facts concerning which you write. If you want to write a book on any question whatever, what an amount o f labour it entails, what unlimited re-
search, what hours of study. And ia what purpose? To acquire knowledge of your subject, to make your livingmietfountain of informaftir oit mhindh w ic tinay will flow to other men and other times. Now 'where did the writers of the books of Scripture get their Icnowledge from? Doubtless there are many things in Holy Scripture which couid be known to man only through God's revelation. In many other cases we have no reason for asserting or suppos. ing any special revelation. The fleecesary knowledge was acquired through labour and study. St. Luke, for example, tells us, that he consulted a the documents and witnesses available for his Gospels and Acts. Therefore, the necessary knowledge may be a,3 quired in a natural way, or by Divine aid—e.g.. by Revelation, which is the manifestation of hidden truth. Herein the acquisition of knowledge, inspiration is not directly concerned. It plays no part. The first act in a long series is complete. The Sacred Writer had before him a jungle of facts. These facts had to be judged of correctly, had to be coordinated orderly, had to be expressed mentally. In this intellectual process, the Sacred Writer was but an instrument—liying, intelligent, free, it is true —but still an instrument in the hand of the Spirit of God Who played the part of the Principle Author. By an illuminating grace He— the Holy Ghost—enlightened a human mind to judge correctly of already acquired knowledge. Then a Divine impulse to the human will was given. Under this impulse the will commanded the intellect to communicate ns knowledge and its judgments The intellect obeyed and the work was begun. The Divine influence did not cease. It still flowed through the dark recesses of human blindness, refreshing it as does crystal fountain the hard bed of mountain ridge enabling it to select and set down clearly in the way in which God wished it the judgments already formed In the actual transcription there was "the negative" assistance of the Holy Spirit to ensure that there would be no discordant note betwei n the written and mental ,amteitee. Whence you may conclude that inspiration extends itself not only to the matter, but also extends itself to the language, but to the latter only in so far as is necessary to ensure correct expression or adequate enunciation of the Divine message. Some have gone so far as to hold that every single word and every sin& syllable were dictated by God. This was certainly the view at one time of many Protestants. But such a view is rejected by the Catholic Church. and is inconsistent with the very character of the Bible itself. Furthermore. such an oininn would be exceedingly difficult to harmonise with the following facts, vg.: ( 1) A marked destruction of style is apparent between one writer and another, which cannot be reasonably attributed to any other source save themselves. 12) They—the Sacred Writers—assure us their writings were put together with much labour and fatigue, and so on. You have grasped, then, what inspiration really it? The process may be conceived thus: Let us take as a concrete example the story of The Burning Bush, narrated by Moses in the Book of Exodus. First Moses has knowledge of the scene. He is an eyewitness God impels Moses by an impulse of the a-ill acting on the intellect to write an account of that scene. Moses proceeds, using the knowledge naturally acquired. But in the process, God, by His Almighty power. so illuminating and directing the intellect and will of Moses, that only these ideas are by him clearly -perceived, accepted. and written down which God wishes to have in the book; but since in the actual transcription God intervenes only insofar as is necessary to seture adequate enunciation you have the book freely written in the style of Moses. and Yet it proceeds from God-from God as the Principal Author, . from Moses as a free secondary instrument. Whence to conclude this first part of the lecture. Inspiration is a supernatural influence of the Hole Ghost. ( effecting primarily the intellect). by which the Sacred Writers are moved to commit certain truths to writing. and by which they are so illuminated and directed in the process that they cannot err, but will write infallibly what God directs. The Bible, then, is the inspired Word

THE RECORD.
The Spanish Elections WHAT THE CHURCH MAY EXPECT. Three facts stand out clearly as a result of the polling in Spain, says the Dublin "Standard," in a review of the elections: That the parties which have clamoured for the separation of Church and State have a big majority in the new Parliament, National Assembly or which meets on July 14; That Senor Lerroux, who is known to be anti-Clerical, is the strong man of the block which will form the new Government rather than Senor Zamora, the provisional Prime Minister. That Catalonia has voted overwhelmingly for independence, and presents a problem which may well be the cause of great anxiety to the potential builders of the new Spain. Although the elections were carried on quietly over a wide area, there were ugly incidents in several places and nine lives were lost in clashes between the supporters of contending parties. C,onununism, which was credited with the incendiarism and pillaging in May, was practically extinguished as a distinct party in the parliamentary sphere at the polls, though the extreme RadiCal Socialists, who secured about 60 ot the 476 seats, include men who are as "Red" as anything that comes from Moscow. The Socialists, the Republicans of the Right fled by Zamora and Mama 1. and the Radical Republicans (the followers of Lerroux). who will provide the Ministerial block, secured more than two-thirds of the seats and, with the Radical Republicans, it may be presumed the Grand Orient takes its place in the counsels of the Spanish nation. Party, The National Action who stood for freedom for the Church, won about 12 to 15 seats, and the Royalists., whose enthusiasm waned as polling day drew near, managed to return 15 members. Other parties especially Cot. Macia's Catalans, and probably the Republicans of the Right, include many friends of religion who may not be dumb when the Assembly undertakes
to deal with the position of the Church which, the draft of the proposed Constitution indicates, is to be disestablished. This proposed Constitution describes the new State as a Democratic Republic. and it makes provision for a system of "provincial self-government." The bi-cameral system, with a Chamber and Senate, is retained. Trade unions are permitted. There will be 420 deputies elected for a period of five years at a salary of 1,000 pese, tas a month (the peseta is now 50 to £1. The Senate is to be composed of 240 members. 60 elected by representatives . If the employers, 60 by representatives of labour, 60 by the liberal professions, 60 by the universities, cultural institutions and the clergy. Were all Spaniards centralists, as the Castilians desire, the Government of the country might start its career in smooth water, but Catalonia has to be reckoned with. Col. Macia. the Catalan Nationalist leader, whose supporters won 47 of the 52 seats, has declared that co-operation between Spain and Catalonia can be assured, provided that Catalonia is given freedom to realise her -own de,ire—complete autonomy. Senorita Victoria Kent, a relative of a Cork T.D., is one ot two women deputies elected, and she still holds the post of Directors of Prisons in the Provisional Government. The violently malignant elements were not so much in evidence during the contests, but an attempt was made - -it is reported by several correspondents—on a church in Madrid. Tear-gas and machine-guns were ready in the capital to deal with serious disturbance, and Major Franco, the aviator, who is said to have attempted to stir up a revolt at Seville, was t aken in custody to Madrid. He was. though alleged to be a disciple of Moscow, elected as one of Col Macia's supporters in Barcelona. the Catalonian capital.

Biscay's Impressive Protest. The province of Biscay has dispatched to Madrid, in a packet half a yard high. documents containing the signatures of 77,271 persons, protesting against the anti-religious decrees in the f ollowing address:— "The people of this province, which has so often given splendid proofs of its faith, cannot permit without protest that the holy Name of God, which has always been evoked in all its manifestations of public life, should be effaced from the official documents; that the Cross of Our Redeemer, Jesus Christ, which stands forth in the arms of the province surmounting the symbol of liberty, should be banished from its schools, and possibly soon also from the Courts of Justice and public corporations; that our virtuous Bishop, who deserves all our filial affection, should be kept separated from us; that our ancient tongue. which contains no blasphemous words in its vocabulary, should be used in lay schools as a vehicle for the de-Christianisation of future generations: that the land. which holds in its mountains the birthplace of St. Ignatius of Loyola, should be called upon to proscribe his sons as outcasts for no other crime than that of consecrating their lives to the greater glory of God and the good of their country." Malaga. Toledo. and other cities have sent similar protestations

Catholic Education in England An Outspoken Prelate. In a rousing speech, the Bishop of Brentwood (Dr. Doubleday) declared in that successive Governments had, Cathe matter of education, dealt with tholics as they would deal with a ferocious dog—by giving it bones "We ought to be ferocious," said His "and we are not going to be ordship, L exsatisfied with a bone. Is it to be pected that, while it sees others getnot ting a luscious meal, the dog will give a bit of a growl?

We pay what we are bound to pay in taxation, and we are loyal .to the King. We are anxious for the welfare of this nation. We ought to let the Government know that we mean to see that this nation. this Empire, this country, is not going to fall because they are inclined to introduce legislation that is not in accordance with the natural law of God. "We have a distinct duty to act towards our country in this way. . . . If they attempt to pass legislation with horrible things like birth control, or pursue activities for easier divorce, we as Catholics, loving our country, are going to be up and doing in order to prevent these things."
"The Fruits of Democracy" SPANISH BISHOP'S PATHETIC PASTORAL. The following, according to the "Irish Catholic." is a translation of the most t ouching letter written to his people by the exiled Bishop of Malaga Our Pastoral Letter was prevented from appearing by the wave of sacrilegious incendiarisrn and devastation, which in two days wrested from the service of- God in Malaga more than 40 churches, left homeless numbers of priests, chaplains, religious of both sexes, thousands of children, mostl-, poor orphans, without school or refuge left homeless also your poor Bishop, oi whose palace nothing remains but the four walls. We now emphasise. with all the energy of our soul, the instructions already given: Let us pray and do our duty, up to the point of heroism, and. if need be, of martyrdom. If we have anything to add it is this new recommendation: "Let us pardon," as par. (toned Our Divine Master—we also nailed to the cross and ready to die even for those who cruel* us.

Reconstruction or Destruction There can be no blinking the fact that the democracy of this Commonwealth are in the trough of a troubled sea, and many perplexing problems conspire to make immense difficulties for those who are endeavouring, sincerely and earnestly, we believe, to bring them into a safe haven. Every human element worth counting in the social order should be on the side of these mariners in aiding and, helping them to reach their objective. Every element of a destructive nature should be overwhelmed and cast out as an obstacle to the public welfare. The common good must be the first consideration, and should not be endangered by class conceits and the irresponsible machinations of experimentalists who would destroy the existing social order in an attempt to create a visionary earthly paradise for the masses. In adversity and difficulty we count as our dearest friends those who come to our assistance. So in times of crisis and apparent disaster, public administrators of the nation's affairs assess the value of helpful citizenship. Treason is a word that should not be lightly applied in the analysis of motives; but there are occasions when one is constrained under stress of strong directing moral influences to charge fomenters.of public disorder in the presence of national travail with being enemies of the public welfare and traitors to their citizenhood. The crises through which the States of this Commonwealth are passing call for the negation of party predilections and class preferences, and invite the moral co-operation of every -adult citizen. 111 The reductions that have been made in the public expenditure have caused an unnecessary amount of friction in quarters where one would expect to find sympathetic approval. Highly paid public servants are unwilling to accept salary reduction while their lower paid fellow public officials have to bend their heads in compulsory submission. Selfishness should not be so arrogantly shown by those whose lines have been cast in pleasant places. If the plan of reconstruction is all that it ought to be in fairness to every interest concerned, and sacrifice is honestly and reasonably balanced, it is the bounden duty of citizens of this Commonwealth to accept the plan and zealously work to make it a success. Without the consent of the people, and their whole-hearted support, public leadership must inevitably be wasted. We note there are sinister indications of group antagonism to the Federal Government's schedule to control the refortn movement towards rehabilitation, and other objectives are being outlined and proclaimed by political empirics for a social Commonwealth based on the ownership and control of the means of production by the organised working class, and an extravagant programme has been planned to promote Sovietism in New South Wales. The Premiers' Plan may not be the best that is possible for our Solons to produce; but it is qualifiedly the best for the present, and it is not unalterable. There is this to he said in its favour: it is an honest attempt to meet a grave public emergency, and it should be given a fair chance. It should be given that chance even though the forces of law should be brought to bear upon those unfriendly and destructive social elements who are obviously reactionaries and inveterate opponents of our present social system. Firm, Responsible Government. and Just Government must begin to function now or never. if the control of Legislative Authority is not to pass over to the advocates and disciples of Ogpti rule. It is extraordinary, to say the least of the tolerance given to extremists who openly convene and plan and pass resolutions, that in their nature are revolutionary, and drenched with a policy opposed to the traditions of sound Democratic Government, that the Federal Authority winks at the propaganda of destruction that is being continuously put forward by reactionaries whose avowed objective is the ,destruction of our present social system. and the .Socialisation of mankind down to the level of a machine, just now. Britain is the spawning-bed of ugly tolerances that must inevitably become a menace to her prestige. Australia must wake up or prepare for trouble.

Notwithstanding the alleged financial gloom that is depressing Sydneysiders at present, and by the way is affecting ourselves to some extent, Sydney claims to be the healthiest capital in the world. Dr. Purdy, the City Health Officer, in his health report recently, stated that Sydney had a phenomenal health record for the first six months of the year. It has the lowest death rate for the past ten years of any city with a population of more than 500,000. The birth-rate, notwitnstanding Stopery and its propagandists, maintains a high standard. • • • We would remind our readers—those who intend visiting Ireland for the Eucharistic Congress—that they need to act without delay in securing hotel accommodation in Dublin. Thos. Cook and Son advise this step is essential, even if all other arrangements are left in abeyance. Bookings in other parts of the world are exceptionally heavy, and some of the hotel accommodation which the firm were holding for the use of Australian visitors has already been withdrawn to satisfy the heavy demands of other countries. It is realised that many Australians, owing to existing financial difficulties, hesitate to book, but any who really contemplate going to the Congress would be well advised to have hotel accommodation resened now, if they require it, even though they may feel it necessary to leave other arrangements until later. • • • Addressing Our Lady's Catechists, in London, on a recent Sunday, His Eminence Cardinal Bourne said "The Holy Father is at this moment suffering more anxiety and trouble than has been the case for many long years. on account of the state of things in Italy. You as catechists would not be allowed to exist in Italy at the present, because you form a part of Catholic Action. At no time for many years past has the Holy Father spoken so strongly, and he needs all our prayers and loyalty." Count John McCormack is to visit St. Helens (England) and take part in oncert at the Capitol Picture House, to raise funds for the new Holy Cross Schools. • • • Dom Maurus O'Phelan, Lord Abbot of the Cistercians of Mount Melleray, Waterford. Ireland, died recently at the age of 78. He was a native of County Waterford, and as a boy went to school at Mount Melleray. and spent all his monastic life there. He was ordained in 1878, and in 1894 became Prior. He continued in that office till 1908, when he was blessed and installed as Abbot. He was an enthusiastic supporter of the Irish Language Movement. and was associated with Father O'Grownev and other pioneers. His last speech on the Irish language was made at the Glee Day ceremonies on May 21 last. Peritonitis attacked him that evening, and an operation followed. Further troubles followed, and he gradually declined. He died last month. • Euchre Party, Cathedral Hall, every Dance every Friday. Wednesday. First Class Orchestra. Good prizes. Dainty Supper.

Father Wilfrid Hampson. who. according, to the "Universe," served in the Diocese of Perth, on the West Australian Goldfields Mission for four Years. celebrated at the Franciscan Convent. Blackburn, England, last month. the golden Jubilee of his ordination to the priesthood, has had an a dventurous life, and during the Franco-Prussian War, whilst a student at Douai, was arrested as a spy. Father Hampson was born in 1854. at Farm worth. near Bolton, and was one of a family of ten children—eight brothers and two sisters. He was ordained at St. `John's Cathedral, Salford, in 1881. His studies for the priesthood were completed at Ushaw College, Durham. Whilst in charge of Little Hulton, his health broke down. and he came to this State. He is the author of several books of travel, a musician and c omposer, and a skilled linguist. He is also a prominent mathematician. A fter an absence of some twelve years abroad. the Very Rev. J. Donoghue has returned to the Maitland Diocese. At Hamilton, where he laboured for more than 30 years, .he received a very warm welcome from his old parishioners. Father Donoghue was greatly touched by the warm expressions of goodwill by priests and people at
the welcome that had been given him in the large Sacred Heart Hall. The Catholics of Newcastle (N.S.W.I f arewelled the Very Rev. Father Mc. Auliffe, BA., who for 22 years had been Administrator at St. Mary's, Newcastle, who goes to the parish of Musselbrook, vacated by the Right Rev, Monsignor Roche, V.G. He was given an easy chair and rug: it was the most he would accept as a presentation from the people. Regret was expressed at his departure. Among the speakers at the farewell meeting was Rev. A. R. McVittie (Presbyterian), who, speaking on behalf of the public of Newcastle, stated that with the departure of Father McAuliffe he (the speaker) was left the "last of the Mohicans"—the clergyman with the longest stay in Newcastle. He had no apologies to offer for being present. He and his people before him were always friendly with Catholics in Scotland. Why he liked Catholics, he said, was that they adhered so strongly to their faith. His relationships with the people of Father McAuliffe's Church had been of the happiest nature. He regretted the departure of Father McAuliffe, and extended a welcome to Father Fitzgerald, his successor.

SISTER D. GILBERTSON. After the usual meeting of the South Perth Branch of the H.A.C.B. Society on Monday night, the 3rd inst., the inter -branch social was held in the After several dances School Hall. and just before supper. the opportunity was taken by the District Board and the Metropolitan Social and Sports Committee to make presentations to The branch Sister Dora Gilbertson. President (Mr. T. A. Coltopy), introduced the District President (Bro. B. A. Clarke'. who, in making the presentation, said: Worthy President, Very Rev. Dean Brennan. Members of the District Board, Sisters and Brothers. We have assembled here this evening to pay to tribute to Sister Dora Gilbertson, who recently resigned the office of District Treasurer and Secretary of the Metropolitan Social and Sports Committee, as she intends 4o leave the State on the 24th. inst. for London, where she intends to undertake a University Post Graduate Course. We are glad of the fact that our guest will not be very long away from us, and we will be looking forward to the time for her return. We are delighted at this opportunity to publicly express to Sister Gilbertson our gratitude and thanks for her splendid work, extended over a number of years on behalf of the society. She occupied the position of secretary of the Metropolitan Social and Sports Committee for about four years, and was a member of the District Board for the last two Years. In addition to these positions, she was President of St. Kevin's Branch for two terms, and has continually taken a very prominent part in the activities of her branch. Sister Gilbertson has never spared herself in her endeavours to further the interests of the society, and it will be difficult indeed to measure the value We conof her great services to it. gratulate her heartily on having obtained her great desire to have the opportunity of completing her studies at a London University, and we hope and feel sure that the result of her studies will be entirely satisfactory to her and the members of our society. We will watch her progress with the keenest interest, as we feel that the honour of her achievements will be reflected in some measure on our great society. We feel sure that on her return she will again take up the won: of the society, as she is one 'of those splendid members who serviCes we cannot afford to definitely lose. I deem it a very great honour and pleasure to make to Sister Gilbertson. on behalf of the District I3oard and the Metropolitan Branches, presentations which represent very inadequately our feelings of respect and gratitude towards her The illuminated address will, we think, he much appreciated by Sister Gilbertson, as it will be continual evidence of our regard and affection. I e xpress the hope that Sister Gilbertson will have a pleasurable journey to London. a successful course at the University, and a safe return to Western Australia, where a most hearty wel,,Tnie from the members of the Hiberman Society will be awaiting her on behalf of the members of the society generally. I have very much pleamire in asking Sister Gilbertson to accept an address and the accompanying gift, which, although the value is comparatively ,small, represents our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation of your w ork on behalf of the society and our aff ection and regard for you personal. To the accompaniment of enthusiastic applause. the District President, on the part of the members, made the presentations to Sister Gilbertson.

THE RECORD.

In her reply, ,Sister Gilbertson said she would always treasure the gifts which she accepted with great pleasure. They would ever be a happy reminder of her association with the members of the Hibernian Society. I am afraid, she continued, that I don't deserve iialf of the good things that our worthy District President has said of me. I have always been regarded as being gifted with too much energy, so that it is a good thing that much of it has been spent in working for the society. 1 have three very vivid recollections of childhood, the first when very small, I remember seeing my mother with a photo. of my father in his Hibernian regalia. Then later on my father came home one night with a small black case on which was inscribed D.G., which, of course, I took to be my initials. At another time, he also received a very nice certificate, rather larger than the one here, as you see he is also rather larger than I. WhenIgo home I will be able to boast that I'also have done what he has done. It is a great ambition to aspire to the District President's office, and I hope that after my return I will become entitled to wear a collar such as our worthy president is at present wearing. There is a lot of work to be done in the society, and I trust and feel sure that there will always be energetic workers available to do that work. I wish the society all the good success it deserves, andIhope that on my returnI will be again given an opportunity to take office on the District Board, and if I am fortunate enough to be present at the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin next year. I intend to wear my Hibernian regalia. I again thank you with all my heart for this beautiful presentation. and I assure you that I shall always treasure it as one of my most valued possessions. The Very Rev. Dean Brennan expressed his pleasure that St. Columba's Branch had the privilege of entertaining Sister Gilbertson, who was going to London to continue her studies in a post-graduate course at one of the great Universities there. He hoped t hat prosperity would attend her Dr. the new sphere of studies she was embarking on, and that she would return to "the West" loaded with new honours and crowned with every success. On her return she would be welcomed with open arms by her friends and the ILA.C.B.S. Sister Gilbertson feelingly responded. A telegram was received from Wiluna Ilibernians, conveying their good wishes to the guest of the evening. Sister Gilbertson was toasted by the company with musical honours. Danc-
ing was continued to a late hour, and " Auld Lang Syne" terminated a most enjoyable evening.
Maylands Popular Lady Competition
An unusually large number of parishioners attended at the Convent School Hall on Thursday evening last, to witness the declaration of the poll Lady Competition, of the Popular which had been in progress during the last three months. Although the poll was not declared until 10 p.m, those present thoroughly enjoyed themselves in the long wait, by watching the introduction of many novelties which were onducted by the candidates in an eleventh-hour appeal to strengthen their voting position. At the appointed time, each candidate handed in a bag containing the total proceeds of the various entertainments and donations which they had received during the Each bag was then competition. counted in the presence of 'a representative of each candidate. The first bag counted was that of Miss Kathleen Sullivan, representing the Convent School, and the total of £75 17s 10d, or 18,214 votes, was then posted in the hall, and the excitement became intense as each of the other candidate's bags were counted and posted, and when it was seen that Miss Kathleen Franklin. representing the Children of Mary, had been victorious, the cheering lasted for some time, only to be renewed -when Miss Franklin appeared and was shouldered by her supporters. The final results were as follows. Miss Kathleen Franklin (Children of Mary). £88 lOs ad: 21,246 votes. Miss Kathleen Sullivan (Convent School), £75 lis 10d; 18,214 votes. Miss Josephine Colreavy (St. Vincent de Paul), £75 9s Ild; 18.119 votes. Miss Millie Sweet (Choir). £74 4s 8d: 17.816 votes. Dr. O'Ffurley, in declaring the result, congratulated each of the four ladies on the splendid result achieved, and he referred to the close results, which clearly demonstrated the equal amount of activity by each of the contestants, with a result so close, that, to use a sporting term, the verdict was won by a head, with a half-head separating second, third, and fourth. The total amount received was £314 Ss 11d., which is indeed very creditable in these hard times. From this amount the Convent received 50 per cent. of that credited to Miss Sullivan. namely, 137 18s 11d, and from the total amount the only expenditure was £2 4s 6d. Great credit is due to the splendid way in which the final was conducted. There was not a hitch: in fact, the same remark can be implied to the whole of the competition
At the conclusion of the evening, each of the candidates were introduced to the audience, and each received an ovation in appreciation of the -plendid work done. The final act in the competition will take place on Thursday evening next, August 20, with a great gala night in the Maylands Town Hall, when His Grace Archbishop Clune will crown the winner with the renowned Charity Queen Crown, and also thank the other lady candidates for the part they played in the competition. Arrangements are well in hand to make the night A commemorative of the occasion. concert will form, the first part, at which leading artists will contribute, but the feature of the night will be the grand parade of the Queens, which, with the crowning and other details, Each of the will take an hour. Queens in the parane will be preceeded by four ladies, representing the society of the Queen, two maids of honour, and t wo train bearers. The popular price 4 one shilling will be charged for admission, and it is expected that the hall will be taxed to its full capacity. The stop-watch competition on behalf of -Miss Franklin was completed on Thursday last, when it was found that the watch had stopped at 10.53. The person holding that ticket will be the winner. The result of the art union conducted by the Sisters on behalf of Miss Sullivan resulted as follows: I. 1586. Mrs. Balla, Yarloop; 2, 1542, E. Maloney.

A meeting of parishioners is called for Sunday evening next to make preliminary arrangements for the annual Catholic Ball. This year 50 per cent. of the nett proceeds of both the Adult and Children's Balls, will be given to the Sacred Heart Convent. It is to be hoped that a large attendance will be in evidence on Sunday night next.

Young Envoys of Peace CATHOLIC BOY SPEAKS FOR YOUTH OF AMERICA. John C MeDuffee. a I7-year-old student of the Catholic Central High School at Grand Rapids, spoke as the representative of 19,500,000 boys and girls in the United States at a Peace meeting held a short time ago at the Guildhall, London. The gathering, attended by more than 700 boys and girls, was a "Children's Goodwill Meeting," held under the auspices of the English-Speaking Union, and included Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, Boys' Brigade, Girls' Life Brigade, National Association of Boys' Clubs, British Camp Fire Girls, Y.W.C.A., Federation of Jewish Youth Organisations, boys of the "Arethusa" Training Ship, and representatives of various public and elementary schools. John McDugee acted as the spokesman of eleven boy and girl "envoys," belonging to American youth organisations, groups, and schools having a total membership of 19,500,000. who were chosen under the auspices of the United States Flag Association, headed by Mr. Hoover. President of the United States. They are visiting England, and will visit Paris, to extend greetings of goodwill to the boys and girls of England and France, to help to strengthen the bonds of friendship between the two countries and America, and to invite the children of England and France to join those of Ameirca in a movement for the creation among youth to-day. in whose hands will be the government of to-morrow, a lasting friendship that will impel them to resort to the conference table instead of the battlefield for the settlement of any disputes I mpressive Young Speaker. John MeDuffee, who is a member of his school's debating team, editor of the school paper, and president of its student council, was, as the result of an essay contest, chosen to be spokesman for the American .1uniors at the last annual convention of the American Red Cross, at the opening session of which he spoke from the same platform as President Hoover. Because of the impression he made at the opening session of the general convention, he was unanimously elected chairman of the Junior Red Cross division at its first session. In his address to the meeting at the Guildhall, which was presided over by t he Lord Mayor of London. John McDuffee said: "Our fathers and mothers have told us, as yours have no doubt told you, of the sufferings, sorrows, and horrors of the Great War. They have said to us that they hoped and prayed that we, their children, would never have to undergo such horrible experiences as they underwent in that dreadful war Frightfulness of War. ''They have also told us that another big war would undoubtedly be much inure terrible than the last one with all its stupendous killing of men and vast destruction of property-with all its ghastliness and frightfulness "The thought has come to us that if the boys and girls in the different countries of the world got to know one another better, if we learned more about each other, we would become such good friends in our youth, that when we became men and women and were in control of the affairs of the world. war would be unthinkable "We are living in the most wonderful years of the world's history The

IC Connolly. WORDS OF WISDOM. Labour in the cause of charity, and so you will be doing the will of God. Seek all that will unite you to God, and the best means of all is prayer. He who wishes to be perfectly obeyed should give but few orders. To despise the world is to be truly rich and honourable, though men think just the contrary. God does not send us trials to lose our souls, but to have them; if we do not know how to profit by them it is our own fault. A soul really united to God, and transformed in Him, readily forgets itself and all creatures. If separation from those you love causes you grief, do not let yourself be cast down. I desire to see your hearts and souls at peace with our crucified Jesus, otherwise you cannot be sharers in His graces.—St. Catherine of Siena. If you would comprehend the burning charity of Jesus Christ towards you, you would see that all His dealings with you proceed entirely from love. Devotions to the Blessed Virgin is actually necessary, because there is no better means of obtaining God's graces than through His most holy Mother. MORTIFICATION THE MEANS. It is of the nature of love to thrive on no food so well as on the evidence of its own vigour: and nothing testifies to us so securely our love of God as the infliction of voluntary austerities upon ourselves: and, while it manifests our love, it augments it also, says Father Faber. Pain, too, of itself prepares the heart for the emotions of love by softening it and making it childlike. Moreover, where the object loved and contemplated is one of sorrow and suffering, as Jesus is, love impels us more or less vehemently to imitation Do we complain that our love of our dear Lord is slackening? Forthwith let us mortify ourselves in something, and the smouldering embers will break into a bright flame. As sure as power follows mortification, so also does love. HOW TO MAKE PROGRESS. No one can make serious progress in the contemplative life who does not with active perseverance force himself to remain in the practice of the interior life. It is not surprising that so many complain that they make no progress in meditation or contemplation, and find therein no sweetness and

Fremantle C.Y.M.S. Judging by the rapid growth and popularity of the Fremantle Branch of the Catholic Young Men's Society, it is clearly evident that the innovation of this society has been a complete success at the Port. The inaugural meeting was held two months ago, and very largely attended. It was decided that a branch of the society would be formed in Fremantle. A week later another meeting was held, and the following were appointed to hold office for the ensuing t welve months: President, Mr. F. Collins; vice-president, Mr. W. Harrington. secretary. Mr J. Mullaney: assistant secretary, Mr. G. Paul; treasurer, Mr. R . Jolley; committee, Messrs. J. Sheridan, A. James, M. Gallagher. B. Redey (librarian). Rev. Father Ryan, 0.111 . was appointed spiritual adviser. Right front the start the committee went about their work enthusiastically, with the result that the membership of the branch at present numbers nearl.. one hundred, with new members joinThe advantage ing up every week. of this society cannot be over-stressed. Its chief importance lies in the fact that young Catholic men from the age of 15 and onwards are brought together and kept in a constant Catholic atmosphere. Because of this outstanding advantage, Catholic parents are urged to persuade their sons to become mem• hers, and Catholic young men in gen eral are earnestly requested to become members of the branch. Although only two months old, the Fremantle branch are going great guns The use of St. Patrick's Hall, Pam-street, has been secured of Thursday nights and Sunday afternoons. Club members are permitted the use of the billiard table on the premises, whilst the committee has purchased such suitable indoor pastimes as a Badminton set, table tennis. bobs. quoits. draughts and cards. Two dances have already been conducted and have proved great successes, both socially and financially. Club members are eagerly awaiting the next dance, which is to be held in the next few weeks. The intellectual side has also been t ully considered by the committee, and to date nights have been held on which a debate and a mock parliament have taken place. both proving very interesting and being thoroughly enjoyed. Club tournaments in table tennis and quoits nave been conducted.

One of the younger members, in Ronnie Cant put up a fine performance to win the quoits from the Collins family (Dan. Alan, and father, Frank).

Ant.4101d Dublin Parish in Penal Days T he Right Rev. Mgr. Waters, P.P., V G., St. Columba's, Drumcondra, in opening the bazaar in Clondalkin, in aid of the Church Renovation Fund, in the course k of his address, spoke of the history of the parish. "It mast obviously be a difficult thing for a stranger like me to tell you anything about your own parish which would be interesting but which you did not know already. 1 thought, however, that if 1 went back to the past I might discover something of interest to every member of this parish, and at the same time not within the knowledge of all. "This parish of Clondalkin and Lucan goes back to the year 1615, and it is composed of no less than ten older parishes 1 should explain to you that there were in the old Catholic times and up to the 'Reformation 87 parishes in the county of Dublin, outThose parishes were side the city. small in area and in population, with ern. small church and one priest, who were supported from the fruits of land in the parish, which the piety of founder, or parishioners had given to the s pr that purpose. Pit:ern SIMS Away. \Liti‘ of the parishes were attache,: to religious houses, and were served by some deputy or vicar sent by Several parishes the monks or friars in this area were ender religious One parish. Kilmarudrick, howies. was the smallest in the county "At the 'Reformatisin' the priest' were swept out of all the churches, and A Mass ceased to be said in them Protestant minister was intruded and given the church and benefice. Henry and Elizabeth (-mid easily find ministers, but their apostolic powers did not e xtend to prodding congregations. The churshes from that time, were always The minisempty or nearly empty ters and the benefices went on for a long while, but the churches, now a bandoned by the people. were allowed to fall into ruin as serving no purpose for their new owners We need not They and pity those ohl churches theirs did not become heretical and the oats of heresy spontaneously. No. They were taken by violence and an alien apiatacy was forced on them. T hee then did the only proper thing. They fell down and died, and the esft-ate-dinars thing is that every one of those early churches in your neighbnurhood has left us its relics to this present day, and I am glad to hear .that you *till bury dead close to their mouldering walls. Under Mabee. ' We may date the 'Reformation' in Ireland from 1540 to later. The Catholics and their priests were in a miserable plight For sonic 70 years they had no parishes, no churches. There were always priests, indeed, but they w ere in hitting and hunted. Mass was said in private houses in secrecy, and a t great risk both to priest and congregation. This chaotic state of things lasted a lo seventy years. until after t he death t ,a Elisabeth. "The yea Woe the Catholics of Dublin the inning. of a new era. In t hat year Bishops of the Dublin Province he d a synod in Kilkenny and passed a decree ordaining a reorganisation of their dioceses on a new prom•hial basis Although the Bishops and their flocks had still 200 years of persecution before them, they proreed• ed at once to act upon the decree of the synod and began to set up new parishes everywhere. The parishes established then remain to this day, and are the parishes that we know The older parishes passed away. So Drimnagh and Ballyfermot. Esker and Pahnerston. Aderrig and Kilmacurb r ick. -Kilbride, and Kilmastalwav ceased to be separate units and becam, mere parts of a new parish which was t e bear and preserve the names of the t wo remaining parishes of the original ten- -the names of Clonialkin and Lis cart The Same Churchyards. "So your parish same into being. and Lucan and Clondalkin. with their dc• pew:rode,. were united and, with one short period et separation, have remained united ever since that is for a space of 316 yeara Nil** it is surely interesting to know that your parish rspresents snore (Ad parishes than any • 'her in the diocese: it is surely a consolation to reflect that the names and Walk of those old churches still survive to add prestige to the new parish, and that their churchyards are all still in use. "I mentioned that there was a break in the union In 1765 Lucan and Palmerston were separated from Clondal-
kin. Why I do not know. They remained apart some 35 years; then they were reunited and, have so remained for the last 130 years. This brings me to another interesting point. In that long space of 130 years you have had only four parish priests, an unprecedented and unparalleled example oi longevity. "In 1798, a Father Dunne was appointed P.P. of Lucan-Palmerston. T wo years later he was transferred to Clondalkin and brought Lucan and He was the Palmerston with him. Ile lasted first of the hicky four. some 37 years. He was succeeded by the Rev. Mathias Kelly, who had a comparatively short reign of about 20 These two old priests said years Mass in a poor chapel which stood in what is now the parish priest's pr• den. Father Kelly was succeeded by the Rev. J. Moore. the greatest name Ile lived till 1893, I in the line. think, and some of you will remiseber him. Ile built the church and the convent and brought the nuns there from Carlow. Both buildings are built to last. In his time the present church in Lucan was built also, anti t he convent, to which Clondalkin sent The church was built by a colony. t he curate of Lucan at the time. a Father Kelly, who died parish priest Naul. and for whom Father Moore had a Solemn Requiem in Lucan. Dedicated by Cardinal Callen. "I will also mention • that Father Moore was for ten years a curate in Palmerston, and lived there and said Mass in the little church before he besame parish priest in Clondalkin. "The church in Clondalkin was opened and dedicated by Cardinal Cullen, in presence of a large number of bishops and over one hundred priests. A fter Father Moores time nothing was needed but to decorate the church, and this was done by Archdeacon Baxter. the last of the four. He died in 1980 "Father Morrissey, who succeeded him, prepared to diary on with the real of his predecessors, and took in hand the redecoration of the church. Trite in Pk many ways to the traditions of the parish priests of Clandalkin, he. sad to say, did not maintain the tra, dation of longevity, and to the sorrow of all, he died within a year. It is his work that another parish priest has now undertaken and which I commend to you." HIS DIAMOND JUBILRE. The priests and people of !Ciliate re' joked with Very Rev. Dean Kelly P.P. Lithardant on the °evasion of his sacerdotal diamond jubilee. His Lordship the Bishop of Killala presided at a Solemn High Mass. and Rey. L. Mc. Name. CSC_ Dromme, preached a sermon on "The Christian Priesthood." Afterwards, at a gathering of clergy in Cmssmolina, a congratulatory address was read by Rev 1. F. Lavelle. C.C., on behalf of the priests. In t hanking them. the Dean expressed hi< c onfidence that his brother priests would continue, as in the past. to be unanimous against all enemies, unanimous in obedience to their Bishop. and united with the' people. Speaking of the many changes which he had witnessed, he mentioned that he had seen the people elevated from a state of serfdom into one of peasant proprietorship This was largely achieved by the advice and leadership of the priests. years ot age. has The Dean. now been parish priest .if Laharrlane for 30 years. In his earlier years, when the Land League was launched in Mayo by Michael Devitt, he was sentenced to imprisonment as a result of his championship of the people's claims. - - -CO.
