"PURGATORY" • Written ;or 'The Record.- by Rev. bather William, Belied (Aim: Monk. or New Norcia.) The whole doctrine on Purgatory omprises cbielly the following points: Existence of Purgatory; (2) Pains ,tf Purgatory; (3). State of the holy souls.

THE RECORD.
a state of suffering and purgation to the abode of the blessed. Summing up this teaching of Holy Scripture and of Tradition, the Council of Trent in Session XXV., peremptorily and infallibly defines: "Whereas the Catholic Church, instructed by the Holy Ghost, has from the Sacred Scriptures and the ancient tradition of the Fathers, taught in Councils, and very recently in this Oecumenical Synod, that there is Purgatory, and that the souls therein detained are helped by the suffrages of the faithful, but principally by the acceptable Sacrifice of the Altar." . . . The doctrine of Purgatory, finally, is most reasonable, since on the one hand nothing defiled shall enter into heaven, and on the other hand, the God of Justice will not penalise with equal penalties venial and mortal sins- Speaking of heaven, St. John says, in his Apocalypse: "There shall not enter into it anything defiled." Defilement in the above passage in-hides the venial as well as the mortal -tains of sin. Both defile the soul. Yet venial sins are but a child's disobedience, so to speak, which do not take away from the soul its fitness to enter heaven. If not fully satisfied r or, Purgatory is a fit punishment for t hem.
gatury are helped by the prayers an especially by the acceptable Sacrifice ,f the Mass." The doctrine on prayer for the hol) souls is based on the Catholic teaching that the Church is like a big Kingdom with Christ as its Head or King. The members are the Triumphant Church in Heaven. the Suffering Church of Purgatory. and the Militant Church on earth. Christ as the King communicates His merits and satisfaction to all and each one of the members. The members interchange merits and satisfactions mutually between themselves For instance, one can pray for his fellow neighbour. He may also pray to the saints in heaven, or for the holy souls. In return, the saints and holy souls intercede for us. There is, thus, a constant supernatural interchange between the militant, suffering, and triumphant Church. interchange. I mean, of merits and satisfaction which, like a life-giving current of divne grace and of human sympathy, run through every province of Christ's mystical BodyThis conception of solidarity between the militant, suffering and triumphant Church is grand. It is also highly humanitarian. In consequence, the Church that teaches such solidarit:‘ must be grated and humanitarian herself. Yes, the Catholic Church is not selfish. She sets up the high ideal of Christian charity, and upholds the natural demand that between those who sleep in God's peace and those wb are still alive, there is no wall or separation. The Catholic Church teaches that beyond the tomb the dead are still our dead. , Human nature craves after communion with those of our kin and kith even beyond time. And this human feeling is not only recognised by the Church, but met and satisfied. It is sweet and consoling to belong t o a Church so unselfish and humanitarian, and who answers the demands of nature asking us to pray for our dead, for between us and them there is no wall or partition. Let us answer her voice. Alas! One minute's delay means a month's suffering to the holy s ouls!

THE RECORD.
Our Lady's Convent, Arranmore
A REFUGEE'S STORY. The following striking commentary un conditions of life in Soviet Russia was told to a representative of the 'West Australian' recently, and we take the liberty of reprinting the story tor the information of our readers. Indeed, we think it deserves the widest publicity in this country, where the vicious germ of Communism propagates its poison:— "Russia," says the article, "is a monstrous machine, its parts moving ponderously and slowly now, but ever increasing their speed and their efficiency in building up power—a machine painstakingly constructed and elaborated from the brain and brawn of 160,000,000 people and intelligently operated by their leaders with one purpose in view. the domination of the world—is the picture presented in statements made by A refugee from the system now living in Perth. Of Russian-Jewish nationality, he arrived in Western Australia with his sister recently, penniless and ill after two years of semi-starvation in Moscow. His story of living conditions under the Soviet regime sounds fantastic to the Australian citizen, who is used to a certain freedom to express his opinions and to live as an individual, but there appears some evidence of their truth in the obviously ingrained fear exhibited by himself and his sister in speaking to strangers and their extreme guarded SOME OF THIS YEAR'S SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS. ness in speaking of internal Russian In the Gentrt Miss K. riallintins I ;rack ARRANMORE CONVENT MUSIC -Honour- Motra affairs. , L Miss A..

The religious feelings of the people were proved by a very remarkable incident which occurred in Dublin on the occasion of the hurling match between two champion teams of the country. When Dr. Harty, Archbishop of Cashel, entered the ground the crowd of 30,000 young men and women rose to their feet and joined in the singing of the hymn "Faith of Our Fathers." h would be a pity of pities if these young men, with their manly bearing and their reverence for virtue, were drawn into secret organisations, where they might have to obey the word of some unknown leader, regardless of whether right or wrong.

"The end of a perfect day" was tilt name given to our last dance, and the filleCeSS we attained certainly justified the appellation. It was the end of a perfect series, embracing all the beauty and tone of the previous dances; adding an additional note of pathos which , is always a, neceseary accompaniment to every final farewell dance. The Brealdng Up. The closing of our dances brought, to tia• committee as well as to the dancers. many regrets -regrets similar in many respects to those of an emigrant. Never before was a dance patronised by such an excellent type of boy and girl; and r,irely if ever has there been found, in gatherings so large. such a homely, well-conducted, good-humoured spirit. More than once were we referred to as the 4Tuesday night happy family." Yes, happy we undoubtedly were. Happiness was the raison iletre of our dances The Return. 'There's a silvery lining in every cloud," and the beam of joy which dispelled the gloom of a final dance was the surety that we would return; that we were but retiring amid laurel Well leaves from the summer sun While, therefore, extend/Nene back. ing to our orchestra, patronisers, helpers and other kind friends our sincere 4. gratitude for the kindness of the past. we at the same time extend to them a most eordial invitation to our The happy famdanceb next season. il• of yesterday expects to be the st II more happy family of to-morrow.

( By - floweat."! On Sunday last, November 22, the St. Ildephonsus' College Oval was the scene of a very interesting game, in which a visiting team, comprising the staff of the "Sunday Times," was defeated by the College 1st. XI A striking feature of the match was Geoff Skeahan's polished display of batting: he hit up 106 in confident style before he retired to the pavilion unconquered Opening for the home team, he seemed somewhat uncomfortable to Finn's deliveries, but he soon settled down, and his century included two sitters, as well as sundry fours. Leo Wood batted aggressively for 27 in about half as many minutes, before being caught by Clarke off the veteran Finn; he scored five boundaries. Brother Cyril. in scoring 67, gave a delightful exhibition of polished batting; his timing was perfect, and his late cuts reached the boundary several times. Brother Patricius, with a series of big hits, notched up 35 in bright style, including one six For the rest, K. Peterson and J. Sullivan, who retired, with 21 and 31, respectively, were the main factors. The visitors, who batted first, did not live up to all expectations, for by the luncheon adjournment the College attackers had routed them for the none t oo formidable total of 98. This was due to the bowling of G. Skeahan, Brother Cyril, and P. McDonald, who cattured 4 wickets for 37, 3 for 13, and I for I, in that order. Joe O'Halloran, e•ho opened for the "Sunday Times." played determinedly for 17, before falling prey to Skeahan. J. Joyce, with 25, Mayhew 23, and Burkett 19,

Gift Sunday at St. Joseph's Foundling Home On Sunday last, November 22, a very large assemblage of the Catholic community of Perth and suburbs, and of w ell-wishers of the Sisters, gathered to avail itself rf the opportunity of witnesiing the great charitable work being performed so efficiently, yet unostentatiously. by the Sisters of Mercy at St. Joseph's Orphanage and Foundling Horne. Subiaco. The knowledge that the doors of these institutions are open at all times to welcome little foundlings and orphans, thrown on the cold mercy of the world, alone incites admiration, but . the tender care bestowed on their charges, the constant regard for their wellbeing, the beautiful and hygiene stir roundings in which they spend then young lives, the excellent training they receive at the hands of the Sisters, cannot be mentally visualised. For this reason, "Gift Sunday" has now become a very defined fixture in A perthe local Catholic calendar. sonal inspection, such as is then made available, leaves no doubt in the mind of the visitor that the successful administration and organisation required in carrying this big task—voluntarily and gratuitously undertaken—could only be brought to fruition by patient and assiduous hard work on the part of the Sisters, supported by the wholehearted generosity of their friends and admirers. On this occasion, the hearts of the Sisters must have been gladdened, as the spacious grounds and beautifully gardened grounds were comfortably filledA band of assistants was kept busy throughout the afternoon in catering for the wants of the visitors and in directing their inspection of the various points of interest at the instituCollectors, moving among the tion. throng, met with a most generous response to their efforts to lighten the financial burden imposed on the Sisters by the upkeep of the institution,. and which is bearing now more heavily than hitherto. In addition to monetary contriubtions. gifts of clothing, foodstuffs, groceries, etc.. were most liberally made. The afternoon's function was brought to a conclusion by Benediction which was given in the grounds. The Sisters wish to extend their most sincere thanks to all who by their in• terest or attendance helped along this year's appeal Opportunity is here taken of especially thanking the committee, to whom was entrusted the organisation and management of the appeal, and to whose untiring efforts the successful result achieved was in no mall measure due. To the boys of Clontarf, who delighted its hearers with band music and to their benefactors and donors, one and all, by whose generosity the. work is being maintained, the Sisters are particularly grateful.

Fremantle C.Y.M.S.
Despite the hot weather, interest has been maintained at the headquarters of the Fremantle branch of the C.Y.M S , where during the past two weeks a debate and a flannel dance have taken. place-. There was a large attendance of members to hear the debate. The subject was that age-old query: "Should capital punishment be abolished?" The teams were: Affirmative—Bill Ellery, Frank Andinach. and Kevin Kelly: Negative, George Paul, Ray Smith, and Mick Galagher. The negative's won after a close go. in which Paul's summing up was described by the adjudicator, Rev. Father Ryan, 0.M.I., as masterly. The flannel dance proved a novel attraction, and was successful both socially and financially., The crowd was a large one, and the committee are giving full consideration to the holding of another before Christmas. Because of a counter attraction, the usual supper committee were unable to attend. but Mrs. M Brown nobly rose to the occasion and single-handed managed the arrangements in a most capable manner. The committee is deeply indebted to her for her goodness in lending her services which were greatly appreciated. The announcement made during the week that Vice-President Bill Harrington is forced to resign from the Club because of his transfer to night employment, is a distinct blow to the Club, as Bill has been one of our keenest and most energetic workers He was well liked by the crowd, and his place will be very hard to fill..

North Fremantle and Palmyra Notes
FEDERAL OVERALLS
To Mr. and Mrs. Sergeant O'Brien, of North Fremantle Police Station, we offer our deepest sympathy in the sad and rather sudden death of their near relative, Mr. Frank Sheridan, of North Perth.
They are are the real article. specially reinforced in parts subject to the most strain. They fit properly, and keep their original good shape after many washings.
Mrs. McFall, of Harvest-road, North Fremantle, has been very ill, and has been confined to her bed for some time. We are pleased to hear that she is making progress on the road to recovery, and soon we hope to see her in her accustomed place in St. Anne's Church. One of the great events of the year, the Annual Fete at St. Gerard's, Palmyra. will be held on the 4th. December. Though it may be among the last events of the year, it is by no means the least. So it is up to all our young boys and girls to get busy with their tickets, and also to remind their parents every day that December 4, at St. Gerard's, is the time and place to buy the Xmas present.

Time after time does Scripture repeat that man was created in the image and likeness of God, chiefly by the gifts of understanding and freewill, which are the reflection of His Wisdom and Omnipotence and the foundation of His other gifts to us. They are above all the manifestation of His liberality and confidence. He will not be served by slaves, Those who are to serve Him in this world and to be happy with Him for ever in the next are to be His willing servants and "most dear children." They are to have the happiness of their eternity immeasurably increased by their co-operation with Him in the work of their salvation. To this end He gives them the grand but dread power of freewill. "God made man from the beginning and left him in the hands of his own counsel. He added His commandments and precepts. If thou wilt keep His commandments . . . they shall preserve thee."--Mother M Loyola.

LOVELY OLD PRAYER. In olden days the monks who lived in the great religious houses of the day often spent some of their time in making books. They were not printed as we see them to-day, but were written and decorated by hand, and to-day the colours are as fresh and beautiful as when painted hundreds of years ago One little religious book which is said to have belonged to the monks of Old Sarum, about the year 1558, has in it this beautiful little prayer: "God be in my head, and in my understanding; God be in mine eyes, and in my look ing; God be in my mouth, and in my speak ing: God be in my heart, and in my think ing; God be in mine end: and at my depart ing."

Saturday, November 28, 1931. I wrote, and you accepted me as a niece. I am tine years old now and in the fourth standard. Ihave brown eyes and dark brown hair. One Sunday I went to the Queen's Gardens with my father and sister. We had dinner early and left about 2 o'clock, and had a very enjoyable time. When we arrived there the first thing we noticed was the statue of Peter Pan, so we went straight over to it. From a distance it looked like a real boy guarding the gardens with his trumpet When we got pointing straight out. nearer we found he was made of bronze metal, but we were very disappointed to see it was not real. The mice, birds and animals were also made of bronze metal. The statue is really put there to show that there is a keeper of the gardens, and that everyone who goes there must obey his rules. After we had a good look at him, we continued our walk and, as we went further along, we soon came to the ducks' pond, and my sister nearly slipped in. but luckily Icaught her in time. It was pretty to see the gorgeous sun shining on the blue water and the lovely big roses and water lilies in bloom. Soon everything became dull and miserable, as if a storm was arising, so we hurried home- After a while we had tea, but we could not have it in peace as it was terribly windy. Well, Aunt Bessy, I was awfully pleased monkey glands did not have to be inserted after your dream about the Lemonade Bottle.— Your loving niece, PHILOMENA SCHOCKER.

A Hidden Sacrifice
"My dear. I fear you are lonely?" There was a tone of anxiety in the words, for the speaker was disturbed in her reading by a deep sigh which proceeded from a girl seated on a low chair by the window. "No, thank you, Aunt, I am not lonely; I was only thinking," the girl answered with a bright smile, while the look on her face showed that the thoughts. though sad, were not unpleasant ones, for Alice Fitzgerald was thinking of the convent home that had been hers for so many Years, and mentally contrasting that quiet life with the gay butterfly existence of the few months which elapsed since she left it City life was very pleasant, behind. the girl thought. During the years she had lived in the convent she had often imagined what the great world outside was like, but until now she had not deemed it possible that so much gaiety could be crowded into a single season. Yet now and again her heart turned with longing towards all the quiet happiness she had left behind. Once she used to say she loved the very stones in those convent walls, as well as the dear ones within, and on this spring clay, though her eyes are turned on her thoroughfares, London busy thoughts are back with that happy, She knows just how careless time. the dear old pile is looking; how it will look a month hence--grey and solemn among the blossoming rhododendrons, the white and purple lilacs, an the silken-tressed laburnums that seemed to mock its solemnity by their very brightness. Yes, she can see it all: the porch with its massive pillars and the wide high steps. that to her childish eyes used to seem a throne when graced by the queenly figure of the aged Superioress, since passed away: the long row of sweet-smelling lime trees that flung their dark shadows across the drive, and threw into bolder re• lief the tall white vases filled with crimson geraniums, and the high-bathed garden seat between; the long, winding avenue that connected that quiet spot with the outer world; and the ivycovered lodge where childish voices used to be so merry until the Angel of Death paid many visits to that tiny home, and the bright faces and glad voices got fewer and fewer, and on those left behind there seemed to fall a settled silence, and a settled sadness. There was sorrow there, too, she knew. but she remembered that at the time it seemed a sorrow that brought Heaven nearer. In fancy again she joined the merry band in the little playground. not to play—it was characteristic of the girl that she never played— t; scat herself on that fragrant little th the lilacs to watch the others, Half dreamily she reand to think members how contradictory those thoughts used to he—sometimes in keeping with the pervading sense of holiness that one always felt there, and sometimes foolishly romantic and Improbable: a result as she used to say. of the never-to-be forgotten odour of the lilacs. As if it were a part of her thought, the soft tones of a distant bell made itself heard above the street noises, as she had often listened to the ,l4ngelus peal from the little church in the valley, and the girl's hand went s •cl to her throat as if in search of the little silver medal that used to hang there: but its absence made a void in her train of thought, as its loss suddenly recalled her to the present. A glance at the French clock that ticked on the mantelpiece reminded her that it was time to dress for dinner. and, all retrospective thoughts banished. Alice Fitzgerald. the heiress w hose peculiar type of beauty made her the fashion in a small set in Lond( n, had taken her place. Above in her room, Miss Fitzgerald's maid was arranging the things her young mistress was to wear. She had bad no directions for this particular evening, so three dresses were laid ready to her hand. "I really cannot choose, Williams? A lice said as she inspected the soft silks with a perplexed air- "My Aunt likes rne to wear white, but it is so childish.' with a pout, "and T do want to look womanly to-night." "You look well in anything. Miss Alice." the maid answered admiringly: "but suppose you try this to-night?" And her choice made Alice come down to dinner looking a slim, white goddess in a sea-ereen gown. Mrs Aliston's dinners were muchf events, for they were attended by some of the most eminent men of the do'.-, great painters and famous poets formed themselves at her board, and since that lady had taken on her to chaperon her Irish niece these dinners had become more frequent than Alice Fitzgerald took very little ever

"At Home'. and dinner-parties she fould rather tiresome. but her meeting with the muchtalked-of author, Norman Langley, roused all her interest, as well as the latent romance of her nature, which even the good nuns had failed to fully e xtinguish. To a young girl, enamoured of the writer's craft, there was something extremely fascinating in the man. His was a lonely, reserved nature, but to /his girl, with her simple convent manners and ready gift of ' sympathy, his thoughts found voice as they had never done before. The result was that they became warm friends They met almost every day, either at her Aunt's house or at the houses of friends, and every day each became more interested in the other. He told Alice much about himself, his work and plans, and in return his confidence she gave him a sketch of her convent life in which he showed a deep interest. Young hearts are warm hearts, so it was not surprising that friendship was too cold a sentiment to content either long, and after an acquaintance of two short months both knew that from friendship they had drifted into love. On this evening Alice looked forward with pleasurable anxiety to the advent of Mr. Langley, for, since the preceding day, when she had listened to the eloquent outpouring of his feelings regarding her, she was curious to know how Mrs. Allston would take the honour done her niece, for the illustrious writer was fully appreciated. Another guest of Mrs- Aliston's on this e vening, who has to do with our story. was that lady's younger son, the ,Rev. Arthur Allston, of the Society of Jesus. The field of the young Jesuit's labours was in France, but he frequently found it necessary to cross the Channel on business connected with his Order, and when he did so, he usually gave his mother the benefit of his society for a few hours at least. Alice and her cousin had many things t o talk about, so the time passed quickly until the arrival of the first guest, who, as she expected, proved to The meeting of the ' ••Mr. Langley. t wo nien was extremely perplexing to Alice She had fancied them to be quite unknown to each other, bur. while her cousin flushed with surprise and- -was it pity?.--Norman Langley's white brow was shadowed by a frown Yet so quickly did the different expressions vanish, Alice could almost persuade herself that she had been mistaken. From her cousin's words she learned that they at least, were not quite strangers. "Why, Langley. this is an unexpected pleasure." Father Aliston said, holding out his hand, with a frank smile. "To me, also, it is a pleasure, and unexpected." the otner replied: but the words were cold, and there was no —rite; smile chilled: she had hoped for .s warm friendship between those two. I 'it she was visibly baffled, for the shadow of some memory seemed to hold them apart.

"My clearest child, von must not think of him. You must forget that silly dream." "Not think of him . . . forget . A unt, what can you mean?" "Speak to her, for me, Arthur. I cannot deal such a blow." Alice Fitzgerald was leaning against the mantelpiece, her face as white as marble, her lips parted in frightened e xpectancy. Her cousin led her gently to a chair, but did not attempt to speak, as he looked at the pale face. It was Alice herself who broke the silence. "What had he done?" she asked in a toneless whisper. It is "Done?" her cousin echoednot that. This man wants to marry you, and you love him. Alice: but no priest of God can bless such a union. In fact, there can be no relationship between you. for Norman Langley is a professed Atheist." She flung out her white hands with a gesture of mingled horror and despair "An Atheist! Oh, my cousin, it can't be true." "It is. alas! too true. Alice." her Aunt answered for him "Arthur knew him years ago. and tried in vain to make him see his error." "Yes, Alice, and at the time he was acting the part of a friend, for he devoted his .genius to teaching his ac-
iursed doctrine :endeavouring to gain converts to a system which drives all the spirit and beauty out of the universe, and strikes a blow at the root of all their happiness." ')Oh, give me time to think; give me time to think . . . but—yes,Imust hear it from his own lips," the girl cned, as shs made her way to her own room, where her Aunt found her an hour later--a small greemrobed figure, with white anus clasped tightly around the foot of the crucifix. Alice found some strength in prayer, and she determined to see Norman Langley again. Anxious to spare her the pain of another meet ing, her Aunt and cousin persuaded her But her friend ansto write to him. wered the letter in person, and tilt temptation to see him once more was too strong to be resisted. The girl had made tip her mind tc be firm, but in the face of such eloquence as his in the face of her own love it was hard to be anythinng but weak and yielding. "My darling.- he said. "it is but a We will both soon for' small matterget it in loving one another.

"Then Alice, I shall go in person to He can grant a dispensathe Pope tion—or whatever you call it—can he not?" -No, I do not believe he would.

"Then you have ceased to love me," was the heartless reply. All her firmness had nearly ebbed a way at this thrust, but with an inward prayer for help, she passionately t ented that her affection for him had - offered any decrease, and, holding out her hand to say good-bye, she told him t hat henceforth all her prayers should be for him alone, but that he must not see her again until both could kneel titotett together to worship the same God To be Continued-)
