TWO

Pope Pleads for the Unemployed Whole World Called to Join "Crusade of Charity

77

THE POPE'S CRUSADE.

To Save Bodies and Souls And Banish Hatred. The Apostolic Letter, as translated by the "Universe," reads: A new menace threatens, and has even stricken already, to a large extent, the flock which is entrusted to Us, and with the greater hardness that most tender and most deeply loved part of the flock formed by the children, the working class, workingmen, all those who suffer need and hardship. We speak of the grave financial crisis which weighs upon the peoples and accelerates in all countries the frightful progress of unemployment. Thus it is that such a multitude of honest and excellent workers, who ask nothing more than to earn honourably their daily bread, which the divine command of the Heavenly Father bids them ask each day, see themselves reduced with their families to an extreme indigence. Their groans have moved Our paternal heart and bid us repeat with the same tenderness of commiseration the words which came from the beloved Heart of the Divine Master in the presence of the crowd languishing with hunger: "Nlisereur super turbam." nnocent Victims. I But Our commiseration is made still more keen, considering the multitude of little children, most innocent victims of this sad state of affairs. who "ask bread and no one will give it them." In this engulfing misery they see that disappearing smiles joy and those which their ingenuous minds seek unconsciously around them. And now winter approaches with that train of suffering and privation which the cold season brings to poor people, and especially to tender childThere is every reason to fear hood. that the scourge of unemployment of which We have spoken may continue to be aggravated to the point when the indigence of so many families already so unfortunate and of their abandoned children will drive them— what to God is displeasing—to exasperation. Crusade a Sacred Duty. All this is envisaged with anxiety Therefore, by Our Paternal heart. as Our predecessors have already done on similar occasions, and especially Our immediate predecessor, Benedict XV . of holy memory, we lift Our voice and address Our appeal to all those who have the sense of faith and of Christian charity, as for a crusade of charity and succour, which, reinvigorating bodies and comforting souls, will give new birth to a serene confidence, will dissipate the troubled feelings engendered by misery, and extinguish the fire of hate and passion. to replace it by the ardour of love and concord and by the most noble and most strong bond of peace, of individual and social prosperity. It is, then, a crusade of piety and love, and doubtless also of sacrifices, to which We convoke all the sons of the same Father, members of a single and great family, which is the true family of Goa, and all participating, as brothers, in prosperity and joy as in adversity and the common suffering. To this crusade We convoke them as a sacred duty. It is, moreover, an explicit command of the Evangelic law, which Jesus proclaimed as the primordial precept, the sum and total of all the others, that of charity, which Our very dear predecessor, in days of hatred and implacable war, inculcated so strongly and so frequently as to make it the mark of his pontificate. To-day also We draw special attention to this very daar precept. not only as the supreme duty, embracing the whole Evangelical law, but as the sublime ideal proposed very particually to the noblest souls and those most desirous of Christian perfection. And We do not believe it necessary to insist further, so clear is it that atone this nobility of hearts, this fervour of Christian souls, with their readiness for devotion to and sacrifice for the wellbeing of their brethren, above all of those who are most worthy of compassion, the innocent multitude of little children, will succeed, by an effort of unanimous agreement. in surmounting the grave difficulties of the present hour. "Unbridled Race of Armaments." Further, since the unbridled race of armamente, resulting on the one hand from rivalry between peoples and being on the other hand the cause of enormous expenditure from the public re.

sources, e, not the least -factor in the present crisis, We cannot refrain from renewing and making Our Own the grave warning of Our predecessor, deploring that it has not hitherto been heeded, and We exhort you all, Venerable Brethren, to seek by all the means of preaching and the Press at your disposal, to enlighten men's minds and to dispose their hearts according to the dictates of right reason and still more of the Christian law. • It pleases l•-

Special Triduums. Lastly, the feast which the Church celebrates to-day recalls to Us, as for a conclusion to Our exhortations, the moving words of Jesus, Who, after He had raised, in the words of St. Chrysostorn, impregnable ramparts around the souls of children, added: "See that you despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that their Angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven." (Matth. xvii. 10). It will be these angels who in heave:, will present to Our Lord the acts of charity performed by generous beans on behalf of those children, and lio in their turn will obtain most

The name of this song speaks for itself, for the flow and ripple of the fresh young voices was pleasing to hear. Miss T. Olsen played the pianoforte solo, "Pax in Terra" in fine style. The Step Dance Reel was well executed by four small girls. Misses M. Harland, K. Smythe, A - Sullivan, and P. Rodan, and deserved the applause it received.

They come back to me but slowly, like the notes of a harp:— an 'am an Dhia, but there it is The dawn on the hills of Ireland.

poor people, and a period of excitement to me when "Expectation whirls me round The imaginary relish is so sweet." In Ireland there are fairies and ghosts and there is dread in our hearts of the unseen. There are good men who know how to love, and bad men whose hear* are as black as a tower full of armed men. There are women, too, demure as violets, and others whose desire flashes out through their eyes as red as sin ot a field of poppies. We have a language of our own, and great efforts are being made to make it universal. This is necessary in a country where there is no divorce, be cause only a sultry man would guarr4 even with his wife if they had no mutual language they could understand.

It takes understanding to sympathise with thatI Irishmen and Englishmen will nevei see eve to eye because they view life through different ends of the telescope. They think over hero that Irishmen have a great sense of humour. They are wrong. Irishmen have a great sense of reality, and realise that life is but a joke. An Irishman is by nature polite, that he will hate too, and will cuddle a grievance as a Jewess will nurse her baby. An Englishman soon forgives, and that is because he so easily becomes interested in something else, but we who deal in eternity have time tc dwell on witings. You can break an Irishman's heart with bitterness and unkindness, and you can also bore him. I will, therefore, take no more risks. Besides, why would I not be proud to be an.Irishman? It is Only in Ireland these days that I find a place that keeps on the windy side of care, and that is a paramount accomplishment.

He will be of great assistance in parochial affairs in St. Gerard's. Mrs. McManus is making satisfactory progress, and is now convalescent, but is still in hospital.

Ted has already taken his departure to Katanning for a holiday, which he rightly deserves, after his hot spell in the tropics. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Shannon, of North Fremantle Railway Station, have returned from their long leave. We are pleased to see Mrs. Shannon is looking so much better after the change. Mr. and Mrs. Chapman, of Victoria Avenue, North Fremantle, are also home again after a pleasant holiday at Toodyay. We congratulate Master Teddy Cox. o f 'Rose Hotel, North Fremantle, who shaped so well at the recent sports of Christian Brothers' College, Perth.

(3) I favour a more equitable distribution of the revenue of the council in providing for the works to be done- What I mean is that, as there was in recent years an immense amount of money spent—some hundreds of thousands, of pounds distributed all over the different wards of the city—and, as there will be a very limited amount of funds for actual work this coming year, the huge amount of money the Engineer's Department costs is out of all proportion to the value of the work performed and must be reduced. in the Engineer's Department I find last year it consisted of about the same salaried officers as when the loan works were being carried out. This year there is no engineering work to be done. Th re will be only maintenance work, which provides work only for labourers. By cutting down the unnecessary cost of the Engineer's Department, more men will be employed I am a business man owning large properties and capable of controlling large businesses economically. From my four years' experience holding the position of Mayor,Ifeel confident I will be able to occupy the position of Lord 11fayor to the satisfaction of the ratepayers. You probably will remember that at the last election the present Lord Mayor beat me in the first count by 26 votes, i.e., LATHLAIN . . 7,508 There were 704 informal votes, mostMOLLOY . . 7,482 ly in my favour by hundreds.

Some hundreds of the ratepayers in Victoria Park marked the voting paper for me with that "X" opposite my name.

PERTH, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1931.

A Menace Denounced His Eminence. the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, in a r ecent address, in which he described Communism as "a menace and a danger," declared that the Soviet was at work all over the world, very secretly and as hiddenly as possible, and that the mischief already done was beyond all calculation. The truth of this statement is becoming every day more and more apparent; recent events in various parts of the world have helped to confirm it. The realisation of this may come as a surprise to the majority of people, but long ago keen and thoughtful observers reached the conclusion that the ultimate aim of the Soviet was to dominate the world. The correctness of this conclusion is proved by the evidence of one of the Communist leaders now on trial in Canada, who states that the aim of the Communist party was to establish a Soviet Government in that Dominion, and that every member of the party was taught to be loyal to the Soviet, and to believe in the dictatorship of the Proletariat. The spread of Communism is, therefore, not a matter to be disregarded. It is a very pressing question. Communists have been at work for years, but they are now more energetic than ever before, because of the dangerous and difficult condition of things in many countries in the world. and the consequent distress and discontentment. They have a field to work in such as they have not had before. Taking all this into consideration, it is at least disconcerting to hear the Leader of the Government in the Senate speak in tolIt is true that he expressed the erant terms of Communism. Communist party would not make much progress the that opinion, in Australia; it is true also that he has since, more or less, retracted. Nevertheless, the statement that Communism might possioly evangelise the world, and the comparison between CommunMoreover, to ism and Christianity cannot easily be forgotten. think that Communism will make little headway in Australia, may be to show an excessive sense of self-security. •

The menace and danger of Communism consist in its avowed intention of destroying all present forms of Government in favour of the Soviet, and still more in its opposition to Christianity and to God. Say what one will about the theory of Communism, in practice it is violently anti-Christian and atheistic. The history of Russia in recent times has proved that beyond all doubt. In as far as is possible, the Soviet has banished God from Russia. For that reason the Communist menace is much more than a political issue; it has become a moral question of the first importance, and a question the solution of which must be found in true Christian principles. There are evils in the world to be remedied no doubt. but Communism is not the true remedy.

ly as this year has passed. Jesus and His Apostles were on Mount Olivet, looking down upon Jerusalem. when in answer to the queries of some of the little band, Jesus unveiled as much of the future as was for their benefit--the approaching destruction of Jerusalem and the final end of the whole world. We know from the accounts of historians that the circumstances of the fall of Jerusalem were exactly as our Lord foretold It took place within the life of the generation that heard the prophecy. Much that Jesus spoke concerning Jerusalem refers, too, to the last days of the world The two dread events were before His Mind. The Last Judgment will take place before "this generation"—the Jewish race—has passed away. It will be preceded by signs and portents. But withal its date is uncertain. The c oining of the Son of Man shall be "as lightning." sudden, but visible to all. The glory of the earth shall disappear as did that of JerusalemThere wna be desolation and great tribulation; but the just have no need to fear. "Heaven and earth shall pass away bet my words shall not pass away"--the last day will but usher in a beautiful nee nity.

It is the duty of all to put all their strength against the (moctrines that are being preached by the agents of the Soviet. and to counteract the activities of Communists throughout the world. We have to pass through a period of unrest and great difficulty. and it behoves all who believe in God and respect His authority, to set themselves against the baneful influences which are at work in the world to-day.

A big concourse of people is expected at the High Mass on Sunday, December 13th., at 11 am, in St. Mary's Cathedral when His Grace the Archbishop will preach the sermon in connection with the centenary celebrations—a sermon the eloquence of which will not be surpassed among those preached in the numerous parts of the world wherein the Order is established. Our devoted Catholics are reminded to come and be present with the Sisters who will be of the congregation assisting at that Mass, to unite in the spirit of the Te Down as sung by the magnificent Cathedral Choir. The Sisters of Victoria Square have worked for the Catholics of West Australia for eighty-six years, and the self-sacrifice of the early members provided education for Catholics and nonCatholics alike in times when there were no others found brave enough to sacrifice themselves to the inconviences encumbent upon the then primitive conditions of the Colony.

From the Vatican City State "In these days it has devolved upLu the poor, the simple, the working (lasses, to give to their fellow men that gift which it was the mission of the Apostles to spread. Knowing Christ themselves, they are to make . (thers know Him. The way is rough. the difficulties are of daily experience, but great is the reward both in heaven and earth. Christi('The Apostles the Glory of Christ') Humanity has never heard, nor will it ever hear, a t ulogy more sublime than that." Thus the Holy Father addressed •zome twelve hundred "Jocistes," whose popular appellation is taken from the initial letters of the official nanie, "Jeunesse Ouvriere Catholique." They reached Rome recently after visiting the famous institutions of Don Bosco at Turin and the shrines of Assisi Pope Best Judge in Disputes Among the Rations. A remarkable ,peech depicting the Vatican City as the best qualified mediator in disputes among the nations was made by Dr. James Brown Scott, president of the American Society of International Law—and a Presbyterian—at the society's annual meeting in Washington. Dr. Scott is secretary of t he Carnegie Endowment for International Law and of Foreign Relations in the School of Foreign Service of f ieorgetown University. "We are so obsessed with bigness." said Dr. Scott, in his presidential address. "that we think that large States are better than little ones. .

St. Mary's Cathedral Queen Carnival As the weeks glide quickly towards the finalising of the Carnival, the enthusiasm of the four candidates and their numerous supporters is becoming more and more keen. Last week was the most successful to date. Let us hope that in the few weeks that remain their efforts and financial results, will increase proportionately. The Queen Carnival is on the lips of everybody; all are joining in. the spirit of the competition, and are giving their help (financial and otherwise) in a magnificent manner. The four candidates join in thanking their numerous supporters, especially the priests of the metropolitan parishes, who, though burdened with parochial financial obligations, are doing their utmost to further the good cause for which the Carnival was launched. They thank also in an especial manner all those who, at no small amount of inconvenience and expense, have thrown open their homes for Bridge Parties, etc. The Carnival will be finalised at a Garden Party, to be held on the lawn of the Archbishop's Palace, on Thursday evening, December 17th. All monies will be handed in that evening. At a concert to be held on Monday night, December 21st., the winning Queen will be crowned by His Grace the Archbishop. ?MIS S. ants.

SOCIAL NOTES Now that winter has really gone, the daintiest of dresses have made their appearance. Floral and spot voiles are very popular, and look delightfully iresh and cool- There arc also charming silks and georgettes. The majority are made to fit tightly on the hips, but an appearance of fullness is often given by pleated or circular frills around the hip-line. The old-fashioned basque has come back again, and one was seen with tiny kilting edging it. The same kitting edged the hem of the ankle-length skirt, as well as the collar and cuffs. Many girls who find they must economise—as they are working part-time—have, by addition of various accessories, been making one dress serve many purposes. So varied are the shape and make of collars, cuffs, and scarves that this can be done at very little extra expense, and the result is decidedly chic: Bags made of the same material as the dress are popular at the moment. Most of the shops are showing white shoes with tiny pipings of colour, and they certainly look very smart. notice that "fencing" classes for women are being held, so we may expect sonie enterprising firm to evolve a costume for that sport which will be "Fencboth suitable and becoming.

The majority have feather adornments in some form or other. Rowena-, the large shady hat is more suitable for our summer days, and is sure to triumph in the very near future. Many women arc becoming interested in the rearing of Angora rabbits, and it is an occupation teeming with possibilities, especially as. at the moment there is a brisk demand for the wool of these little creatures. However, it is an industry fraught with many pitfalls for the uninitiated We look into a cagy and see these tiny things nibbling a lettuce or a cabbage leaf, and we think how simple would be the keeping of dozens of them, and we speculate on the pin-money we would makeHowever, the Angora is much more delicate than the bunny we are acquainted with, and with the advent of summer every care must be taken with the food supplied to it.

Voluminous c orrespondence from and to branches -was dealt with, and the question of visits of District Board delegations to St. Munchin's Branch, Collie, and St. Joseph's Branch, Northam, was deferred until the next meeting. The question of the erection of a memorial in honour of the late Rev. Father Lynch, RD.P., was further considered, and it is hoped that within a short time the necessary arrangements will have been made to complete the memorial. Now that we have started the Hibernian new year, branches are urged to continually, encourage their members to use their best endeavours to increase the numerical strength of the society. Each member should be asked to introduce at least one new member during the next three months. Although the time for recruiting is not perhaps propitious by reason of the bad times, still there is no doubt that the society would be making greater progress if every member took every available opportunity of placing the facts relating to the society before their Catholic friends and acquaintances. The wonderful demonstration of faith manifested at the .Annual General Communion is the best evidence of the spirit of the members, and it is only necessary for that spirit to be extended into the field of recruiting to insure that the society will have a steady and wonderful growth. Sodal and Sports Committee. Delegates from Subiaco. St. Mary's, St. Patrick's, Senior and Junior, Highgate, Victoria Park, Nedlands, and South Perth were present at the meetMg held on November 6th.

Dr. Kennedy thanked those in attendance for their patronage. The appeals made from the altar for a larger attendance at morning Mass during this month of November, has met with a good result, and the large numbers approaching the altar rails daily prove that the despairing cries of relations and friends in Purgatory have at least moved many. As stressed by Dr. Kennedy on Sunday, there are still many who, with a little effort. could make some sacrifice in this connection. Where it is impossible to attend the morning Mass (and sure it is no exaggeration to state that St. Mary't could be well nigh filled every mone ing at 7 o'clock if we mortals thought less of our beds and other creature comforts), a little sacrifice would bring many along to Rosary in the evening. Dr- Kennedy exhorted one and all to extend still further their charity to those who have already been called upon to render an account of their stewardship. It is to be trusted that his words will be greeted with a fur ther encouraging increase in the numbers attending the Mass and evening devotions during the month. their cast That coming events shadows before is an old saw and a true one, and the close of the year at the schools is foretold by the feverish ereparations for the University examnations and the equally earnest reherThe sals for the annual concerts tickets are already on sale for the effort of St. Joseph's at Boulder, which will be held at the Town Hall on the evenThe pupils of ing of November 20. the convent occupy a high rank in this connection, and promise on this occasion to further enhance their reputation.

There is a pleasant time in store for all who attend the Lyric Theatre on Noveinbet 28. The occasion is the annual concert by the children of the Convent School. In addition to a fine programme by the children, and prominent- artists, the services of WA's champion choir, St. Patrick's Boys), have been obtained, and they will be heard in a variety of popular songs. A notable violinist, in Master Jim Mc. Cusker, has also consented to contribute to the programme. Master Mo. Cusker's playing was heard at the recent coronation ceremony in the Town Hall, and will not be forgotten by those who had the pleasure of hearing him. The Sisters have been working very hard to ensure that a first-class concert will be presented. Therefore, all that remains is for ALL parishioners to make a special effort to be present on this occasion. It is expected that this concert will excel that of two years ago, which was rated as the best ever. This should give extra encouragement to parishioners to come along in full The prices of admission have forcebeen reduced to a minimum, and are There is no booking. at 1/6 and De so those who want to obtain good seats are advised to be early.

HOME, SWEET HOME 'Mid pleasures and palaces, wherever we may roam Be it ever so humble, th ere's no place like home." ONCE IN A WHILE Once in a while the sun shines out, ' And the arching skies are a perfect blue; Once in a while, 'mid clouds of doubt Hope's brightest stars come peeping through, Our paths lead down by the meadows fair, Where the sweetest blossoms nod and smile, A nd we lay aside our cross of care Once in a while. Once in a while within our own We clasp the hand of a steadfast friend; Once in a while we hear a tone Of lave with the heart's own voice to blend And the dearest of all dreams come true, And on life's way is a golden mile, Each thirsting flower is kissed with dew, Once in a while. —Nixon Waterman.

ause it is lovely, and do the right because of its lovableness. OUR NEIGHBOUR'S SIN. If your neighbour's sin is so mani!nest that you cannot in honesty excuse it, blame not the sinner, but the violence of his temptation, remembeiing that you yourself might have fallen as badly, or even worse.—St. ignatius Loyola. THE NATURAL INCLINATION. Man's heart tends to God by its natural inclination, without fully knowing what He is; but when it finds Him at the fountain of faith, and sees Him so good, so lovely, so sweet and gracious to all, and so ready to give Himself, as the sovereign good, to all who desire Him---0 God, what delight, to unite itself for ever to this Goodness so sovereignly lovable! —St. Francis de Saba.

Whoever is truly resolved to follow Jesus Chrict should fear nothing, for Jesus Christ will assuredly help him It is necessary that we should makfor ourselves dwelling in prayer; the wicked that they may become better and form an inviolable friendship with God. True charity requires that we compassionate the smallest afflictions of our neighbour, and that we bear with his imperfections. True perfection consists in a perfect lave of God and our neighbour; the more perfectly a soul observes these two commandments, the more perfect does she become. If we are very determined to mos tify ourselves and not to be too much occupied with our corporal health, we will soon, by the grace of God, become masters of our bodies.

DEVOTION TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN. Anyone who has a true appreciation [ a the great dignity conferred by Almighty God upon the Blessed Virgin understands why the Catholic Church attached so much importance to devotion to her. In God's Providence she was chosen to be the Mother of the Redeemer, and this office brought with it special graces and gifts which made her higher than all other created beings. It was not alone because of her exalted office in the Divine plan of the World's Redemption, but also for what she was in herself that the Church holds her up as the example to be followed and the ideal to be copied. There has never been a time in all the history of the world when Catholic womanhood needed to be more devout to the Mother of God. The world is filled with temptations of every sort. Under such conditions it is more imperative than ever that devotion to the Blessed Virgin should be assiduously fostered and developed in the soul She will keep us pure and undefiled amid all the wickedness and degeneracy of a thoughtless age. and she will endow us with a character beautiful in the sight of God, and worths- of admiration even for the eyes of the world, it we strive to copy her virtues, to imitate her life to implore her assistance

WHAT FATHER DEGEN SAYS: The world does not like to be reproached for its sins. You will be made welcome by it only if you maintain a spirit of amiable equanimity easy accommodation, or benevolent tolerance towards your neighbours' vices. Work is a source of joy. There is nothing more wearing than the trionot ony of having nothing to do. Many people are temperamentally incapable of provoking a stormy discussion without provoking a -- stormy scene. It is characteristic of worldly people that they never attempt to develop t detached inner life, but seek happiness in an overwhelming fondness for food, personal adornment, and admiration. The earning power of any inclustrsshould be reckoned on the assumption that it is subject to a living wage t or the workers as its first charge. No one knows better than the wearer where the shoe pinches. People with genuine unheeded grievances will throw themselves into any subversive movement, which usually also brings to the surface the underworld of vice, with terrible results Beauty has raised chorus and beggar girls to peerages, and even to thrones but it is not the less a fatal gift which in the long run often brings misfortune to its possessors. LOSS AND GAIN. Do not think that if you try hard to do more what Our Lord wants you to do you will be miserable, or lose any real joy in your lives There are people who really believe that self-sacrifice means some kind of wretchedness. Do you know that the true happiness of life belongs to those who make the greatest sacrifices of the things of this w orld. They lose and gain. That is strange. Think over it. but, above all, try it, and you will find it perfectly correct What you feel inclined to want is not always the wait to give you genuine pleasure. There is good, better. best Make this test: when you perhaps real. Iv believe getting up in the morning early enough to let you say your prayers properly before going downstairs is not worth the trouble, overcome that inclination to stay in bed, arise promptly, give God your first thoughts and actions, and then—you'll know the difference

All the while, to outsiders, Elisabeth led a life, which seemed brilliant and happy,. but her. heart was sorrowful. She felt keenly the division between her husband and herself, in what she wisely deemed the most important thing in life. Her daily prayer for his conversion never ceased. At the same time there was a curious sense of loneliness She was surrounded by friends, many dear to her, but few shared her belief. She had to keep to herself her most intimate thoughts. She confided them to her diary. This loneliness made her enjoy all the more the affection of a nun, to whom she wrote beautiful letters. which were published after her death under the title of "Letters on Suffering."

As the letters of Bliss. beth appear, they have the Mlle success. They speak to many souls who are hungering for the help Elisabeth can give, while remaining in the world to come near to God.
