Driving Four-in-Hand Through the Trossachs. Every day for six months in the year, coachmen in livery of past generations drive "four-in-hand" through the heart of the most romantic part of Scotland, carrying tourists by coach between Inversnaid, on the northern fringe of Loch Lomond to Stronachlachar, at the western end of Loch Katrine. The service has been in existence for a century. On arrival at Inversnaid by the Loch Lomond steamer the tourist sees before him in the courtyard of the hotel an assembly of oldtime horse brakes and horses, coachmen in whites top-hats, grey neckties, bright red jackets. and corduroy breeches and brake-boys with glengarry bonnets. There are never fewer than eight 'fourin-hands" making the journey to and from Stronachlachar twice daily. In addition to the eight "four-in-hands" there are available six pair-horse brakes, and as there is accorrunodation in each brake for from 20 to 24 people, 200 passengers can be taken at one "lifting." The full complement of 300 passengers is not unusual. Last season the brakes carried no fewer than 19.000 passengers. This is a trip well-known to those who have toured Scotland through Cook's

Mr. de Courcy. was elected treasurer, and after a meeting of three hours it was decided to begin immediately the distribution of aid under the control of missionaries and the local authority. Father Conaughton. an American Catholic missionary, was added to the committee. Father Jacquinot is working in collaboration with other organisations, two of which are especially worthy of mention. One has distributed 300,000 dollars for provisions and asylums, while the Provincial Committee of Hupeh has dispensed 500,000 dollars. Up to the moment nothing has been receiv. ed from Nanking, save the protection of the police and the soldiers. Chinese Sisters are winning the admiration of everyone in their errands of mercy, distributing medicine and what little they have at their disposal. Father Jacquinot sums up the proportions of the flood in that district in a report to the Vicar Apostolic of Nanking. "The Blue River has become really a prehistoric river filling its valley until it has become 35 miles in width. It has a current of six miles an hour. In this water waste of 50,000 Square miles the villages have disappeared, not only flooded over, but carried away by the force of the flow. Nothing but the tops of high trees are to be seen."

Dublin Congress, 1932
Kalgoorlie-Boulder Long before the hour of midnight on Christmas Eve, the spacious, accornmodation of St. Mary's Church was crowded, and late corners found room with difficulty. The hot and oppressive weather made conditions within the church particularly disagreeable, but the solemnity of the ceremonies quickly transported the thoughts from a realisation of earthly discomforts to loftier As the town clock sounded realms. the advent of Christmas, 1931, the wellbalanced choir was to be heard in a superb rendering of "Adeste Fideles." The Rev. Father Ryan was the celebrant of the Mass. and was ably assisted by three ecclesiastical students, now on vacation, Messrs. Cyril Stinson, Edward McBride, and Richard English. The genuine beauty of the Gregorian chant in the Preface and Pater Noster were appealingly beautiful, whilst Brattman's Mass was treated by an expertly trained choir with perfect understanding and sympathy. The conductor, Mr. Charles Gordon, had apparently missed little of the sentiment of Catholic liturgy, and in his solos, including the profoundly significant "Inconictus Est," displayed his full appreciation of the composer's motives. Mr. P. Tornson's baritone voice found full scope in the score, and his rendering of the Penedictus solo was full of exquisite From the altar, Father sentimentRyan set a high standard with his The painstaking enpleasing voice. deavours of the Sisters of St. John of God was reflected in the artistically prepared altar, which added no small share to the solemnity of the ceremon-
MISS PATRICIA SCHWANN. Mics Patricia Schwann continues to place the name of Kalgoorlie on the map with her latest successes at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music Twelve months ago Miss Schwann gained the West Austalian Musical Scholarship. which entitles her to three years' tuition at the Melbourne Conservatorium. During the year Patricia has justified her selection for this honour by gaining the 'Ormond Exhibition, of the value of £25 for excellence in all subjects 19), and general artistic skill exhibited throughout the year. She further distinguished herself by sharing the Lady Turner Prize, which was awarded by the Director to the pupils who show the most outstanding musical promise. She also tied for first place in the first year diploma class with Miss Winifred McDonald. Both these students are 17_ years of age, and are the youngest in this form. It must he a source of congratulations that both Miss McDonald and Miss Schwan are members of well-known Catholic families. Amongst the visitors to Esperance for the Christmas holidays are Miss Noreen Sheehan, of Boulder, and Mr. Eric Heenan, of Kalgoorlie. Word has been received that the Rev. J. Russell. the son of Mr. and Mrs. P .1. Russell. was raised to the order of Deacon at Genoa on December 19th. Green: "Now that your son has graduated, has he decided where he is going to work?"

SOVIET PRISONS The Prisons Dept. of the R.S.F.S.R. Russia Proper. has issued an official summary of the economic results achieved since January by the inclusion of convict labour and prison enterprises in the Five-Year-Plan. The summary states that, generally speaking, the supply of convict labourers was maintained satisfactorily during the first half of the year, and four prison districts more than fulfilled their programme, although nine others did not produce the expected results. The best districts were the Urals, the West, ern and Northern Provinces, and the Far East, but Moscow also did tolerably yell. The programme of convict labour for the second half of 1931 in West Siberia, the Northern and Western Provinces, and North Caucausus considerably exceeds that for the first half, and Lintin, Acting Chief Director of Prisons in the R.S.F.S.R., has instructed the directors of all convict labour organisations to hasten production, not only by carrying out the full programme for this half-year, but also by regaining the lost ground of the first half, particularly in the timber working, metal, leather. quarrying, textile, and food industries.
gramme embodied in the Five-Year Plan the prisons produce a profit which is highly satisfactory. Utevsky, the penitentiary specialist, told the conference that it was 'necessary to offer "class enemies" certain privileges only :is a means of getting better resuhs crom their labour. All attempts to re. form them must be avoided. They must be isolated, subdued, and trained t or manual gang labour.
The Foundlings If in your heart you feel to-clay Some pregnant mem'ry of the past, When all your years with gloom were grey And life with clouds was overcast; If you had reason then to know The pangs of loneliness and pain, And Fate decreed that to and fro You trod life's long, unlighted lane; If you were orphaned etc your feet Wereoafashioned worlily ways to If this appeal your eyes should meet— Forget ye not the Foundling Home.

The Commissariat for Justice of the R S.F.S.R. recently published a statement to the effect that the compulsory :abour camps consist almost exclusively ef people not employed in manual labour before imprisonment: in 19'29 such inmates of Soviet prisons and camps were 4 per cent of the total number of prisoners, but the proportion rose to 35 per cent. in 1931. At a recent conference at the State Institute on the study of crime. Krylenko. the Commisear of Justice. explained that the So-Government was now working out a new theory for prison work "which repudiates as a political error attempts Such prito reform class enemies." soners must be used for Socialist purposes, but warders must abandon the esactice of regarding them as indiviotials. They must be regarded collectively as an alien mass. He stated that the prisons formerly cost the State 14.0G0;000 roubles annually.

In London, Isidor Goodman played with many famous orchestras. such as the London Symphony, under the conductorship of Dr. Malcolm Sargent and the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra directed by Sir Dan Godfrey. Other engage. ments filled by Isidor Goodman have been a tour of Italy in conjunction with the Russian Ballet, and also playing for the well-known Ufa films in Berlin. In January, 1930, the N.S.W.

Such is the career of this &mom. plished pianist, invited by "His Master's Voice" to make a permanent record of his art. The record, which is now obtainable at all gramophone dealers, is a delightful performance of the Schulz-Eyler Concert Arabesques on Strauss' "Blue Danube" Waltz. This is, perhaps, the most popular item in Isidor Goodman's repertoire, and is always enthusiastically encored. The record is extraordinarily clear an sparkling, forming a worthy tribute both to the virtuosity of this outstanding pianist and the superlatively life. like recording of "His Master's Voice' The record number is EB65, and, good news for music lovers, a 12-inch Plum Label.

The British are known as admirable actors, and in "The Rosary" they have combined dignity with restraint in putting to the screen what is essentially a modern story. The narrative tells of the love of two sisters for one man, and of the influence which religion exercises on the unselfish and beautiful sister in making her willing and anxious to sacrifice all the world holds out for the peace and calm of i quiet garden and sacred halls, so that her younger sister may take the love that is offered. There is an inter sity of feeling, a reality, about the work of Margot Grahame, as the yr-selfish sister, that makes a deep impressio,1 on the onThe balance of the cast is looker. well selected, and includes Elizabeth Allen, Walter Piers, and Leslie Perrin. The balance of the programme at the New Oxford and Premier Theatres, from Saturday to Thursday next, will also be made ue of motion pictures which have not yet been seen in this State- It must be stressed that "The Rosary" has not, and wi'l not be, seen at any city theatre. and that it is an entirely new all-British talking picture

North Fremantle and Palmyra Notes A visitor to St. Anne's Church, North Fremantle, was deeply impressed by the devotional aspect of the Sanctuary, and said that the unusual and delicate blending of colour in the painting at the back of the altar reflects great credit on the artist who so 'skilfully carried his artistic idea to this degree of perfection. Pleasing comments were also made on the devotional singing and the reverence shown by the altar boysThese words of praise should help and encourage us to strive towards still greater perfection in all that pertains to the House of God. We were pleased to notice among the congregation at St. Anne's Church, North Fremantle, Jack Hoare, who is back from Melbourne. looking hale and hearty. We are sorry to announce that Mrs. Mutt ram, of Petra-street, is very low in health; and that Mrs. McManus, of Foss-street, Palmyra, has returned to l'remantle Hospital. Mrs. Quinn, of Thompson-road, North Fremantle, is also in indifferent health, and has been ardered away for a change. Congratulations to Mr. Dave Miller, a his success on securing a win at Kale4 worlie races. Mr. James Miller had the privilege of riding one of Mr. J. J- OlIara's horses at the Railway Stakes, and secured the first place. St. Gerard's loss will be Father Finnegan's.gain when Mr. and Mrs. Mills and family, of Adrian-street. Palmyra, remove to Kelmscott. It is with regret that we see such excellent parishioners leave our midst: but trust that former ties and pleasant memories will induce them to retrace their steps to St. Gerard's parish again, when times are more prosperous and work is more alaindant. For the present we wish :hem every success and happiness in 'heir new home.
Third Order of St. Francis PERTH FRATERNITY. "Deus Meus et Omnia." In spite of the terrific heat, the Tertiaries of St. Francis rolled up in very fair numbers to their ordinary first Sunday meeting. especially as the Christmas and New Year holidays had taken Rev. away a considerable number. Dr. Sullivan received eight new members into the Order, whose ages varied All ages can fit into from 14 to 70. this extensive Order. He then spoke to those assembled on Catholic Action in its general acceptance and as applicable to members of the Third Order. Praising them for certain efforts already made in that direction, and urging As our Holy them to greater ones. Father the Pope has constituted St. Francis of Assisi Patron of Catholic Action: which Pius XI. has so much at heart. it behoves all lovers of the "Poor Man of Assisi" to exert themselves wherever such action may be necessaryAfter Benediction of the Most Holy Sacrament, all the members adjourned A letter was to the Cathedral Hall. read by the secretary from Father Celsus Kelly. Provincial of the Order in Sydney. in which he sent Christmas and New Year greetings to the Perth Fraternity. Another from Sister Clarke. a former novice of the Third Order, who had lately received the "Cap," as postulant in the Presentation Order, in Geraldton. Sister Prefect made reference to the Castledare picnic, which all the participants seem to have enjoyed. Many valuable books were also received, some donated and others lent, by Sister Prefect to the Franciscan library, We which maintains its popularity. would like to draw attention to interesting Catholic weekly papers and magazines, given by members, free to any tertiary, which are generally overlooked. They often refer to certain problems of the day which it would be well for tertairies to study and understand, with a view to concerted action when and where necessary to combat all that is against the Faith in these very troublous times. The Spiritual Director. Dr. Sullivan, asked all tertiaries who had been received on December 11 and January 23, 1931, to get in touch with the Novice Mistress, in order to be prepared for the ceremony of profession, to take place on February 27. the next first Sunday general meeting at the Cathedral. 4

League of Nations Worthy of Catholic Sympathy and Prayer A t a meeting ui the Catholic Council for International Relations, held recently in the Westminster Cathedral Hall, an eloquent plea for world peace was made by Cardinal Bourne, when a statement on "The Catholic Church and Disarmament" was broadcast by the B.B.C. The following is the text of the Cardinal's statement:— "It is the manifest duty of Catholics to pray and to work for disarmament. The Holy See has frequently spoken in this sense, and you have had set before you to-night a summary of the pronouncements of various Pontiffs. "But, if disarmament is to take place, it can only be on the assumption that the right of the nation, to protect itself by force of arms, shall be alternatively safeguarded without such selfprotection. In other words, mutual goodwill and understanding must take the place of armed resistance. "The only real effort made so far to substitute this mutual understanding for the clash of hostile forces is to be found in the League of Nations. This League has existed for only a few years. It has still to prove its efficiency, and it by no means yet embraces all the nations of the earth"Although initiated by a President of the United States of America, that great Republic—now exercising such s trong influence in world affairs—still stands aloof and is not yet a member of the League of Nations. Notwithstanding the League does deserve the f ullest sympathy and encouragement. ands should receive the prayers of all Catholics who, because they are Ca. tholics, must have at heart the peace of the world. French Unfairly Criticised. "Can it be truly said of the present time that the League of Nations full" commands the confidence of all nations, and is in a position to settle international disputes and to guarantee security to any menaced nation? "I think that no one would venture t o answer this question n the affirmative. In the absence of such affirmative, we can better understand the attitude' of France, which, in my opinion, is often unfairly criticised in England. "Twice in less than fifty years the French people have seen the soil of their country ruthlessly 1i-evaded. They are naturally and instinctively apprehensive of future attock. and, pending the obtaining of their security, they feel obliged to rely on their own military protection. "Immediately after the Great War t hey sought security in other directicns. England was pr:-pared to give it, provided that the United States colAmerica refused to do so laborated. Will anyone undertake to say that the League of Nations is at the present time in a position to guarantee a disarmed France against hostile attack? "I would instance also the case of P land.

COMMENT
Here's a nice howdy-do for the P.U.L. (meaning the Protestant Unity League ) to consider at its next powwow. What will it do. or what can it do. to frustrate any attempted movement in the direction of carrying into completeness the suggestion hereinafter mentioned? The Papacy has been mentioned as the fittest of all States to decide disputes among the nations. Dr James Brown Scott. Secretary of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. and President of the American Society of International Law, at the annual meeting of that Society. held at Washington. recently, acknowledging the services of the Papacy in the promotion of world peace, said: 'A dispute laid before the State of the Vatican for decision would be free from the suggestion of material force to compel its acceptance: would be disconnected from any idea of territorial aggrandisement: would have a presumption of justice in its behalf, because the State itself is a recognition of justice: and the decision, whatever it may be. is hound to be in conformity with the moral code of the centuries and to be dominated by a spiritual conception of things which temporal judges may sometimes be without. Protestant though I be, and of the Presbyterian variety, I look forward to the State of the Vatican, barely large enough for the Pontifical throne- -an imponderable State—rendering services in the future even greater than the Papacy in the past. because it has neither army nor navy nor territory. It only has a conscience and law under the control of a moral and spiritual conception." Now is the time for the P.U.L. to get a move on. and give a reason for its rushing in where angels would refuse to t read softly. Its attempt to raise a hub-bub during the recent elections was very flat and anaemic. in its results C ertainly it must be very disappointing to the "paytriotic" nuisances who are out to save the Empire from the domination of .Rome. • The new Federal Ministers have assumed control of their departments. Now we shall see what we shall see. We sincerely trust, in the interests of the perplexed and troubled Commonwealth, they will have a placid and, naturally, a busy time in office, free f rom the sordid bickerings of party cliques and their mean jealousies—that the expectations of the majority of the electors responsible for their being will be realised, and that country and not Party will be first in their thoughts and the inspiration of their daily work.

"They feel it is shameful to have to live on unemployment relief, they would far rather work for their living and have that fine feeling of independence and satisfaction which comes to a man who honestly earns his living by hard work. "But under our present system this cannot be done: there is no work for them. "It is not their fault, and every good Catholic will know that there is nothing shameful in accepting the unemployment insurance money. . . . "Our statesmen are trying to deal with the national problem, and we can all help by our prayers as well as by our economies. And we can also help by trying to teach Catholic principles whenever and wherever we have the opportunity. "Class warfare of the type we have so often to-day is essentially non-Catholic. "To-day employers and employees in an industry often fight each other, while the industry itself comes near to ruin, and the rest of the world searches for a substitute of any sort which will make it independent of the quarrelsome industry. . . • "The remedy for this evil probably lies in the organisation of any particular industry as a whole. "If an industry were recognised and organised as an economic unit, governed by a council composed of representatives of the owners and of those who are employed in the industry, if the workers were given a genuine status in the industry, and were recognised as real co-operators with capital, at least ono of the cayses of class-hostility would disappear. . . . "Great companies with their divided responsibility and limited liability have, as our Holy Father tells us. given occasion to abominable abuses. . . "The worst injustices and frauds take place beneath the obscurity of the common name of a corporative firm. The mOst respectable people may unknowingly have been receiving their incomes from corporations whose methods mean injustice and fratid. immense "Economic dictatorship, power. despotic economic domination, are concentrated in the hands of a few. They control money and so govern credit and determine its allotment: they supply the life blood of the whole eco. noinic body and no one dare breathe against their will. "These evils and their consequences drive men to desperate remedies such Comas Communism and Socialism. munism teaches merciless class-war and complete abolition of private ownership. It puts all citizens under the absolute control of the State, and leaves no room for the freedom of the .Church or the freedom of the individual . Socialism claims that economic production must necessarily be carried on collectively, and that because of this necessity men must surrender and submit themselves wholly to society, with a view to the production of W ealth.
"Roth of them esteem so highly the possession of the greatest possible amount o fthe goods of this world that man's higher goods, even his liberty, have to be subordinated and sacrificed. Communism and Socialism are unthinkable without compulsion. "Even if the goods of this world were all divided fairly, man would still lw discontented and dissatisfied unless his true position were recognised, viz.. that he is a creature dependent on God, placed here to give glory to God, and to aim at eternal happiness in Heaven as well as temporal happiness on earth. Any other position is unnatural and is untrue to facts. . . • "The economic despotism of capitalists is wrong, and the Communism or Socialism of working men is also wrong. Midway between them lies the truth taught by Christ Our Lord, 'Seek first t he Kingdom of God and His justice and all these things shall be added to y ou' : and 'these things' are the temporal goods at which capitalists and 'These Communists alike are aiming. things' ought not to be man's first aim in life: if he makes them his first aim he is wrong. unfaithful to God, untrue to himself, and unjust to his neighbour. " Economic evils arise from putting `thLse things' first, and the only rem-
edv is a return to Christian life and Christian principles. . . . "Men are moved to grief and indignation by temporal upheavals and temporal disasters and ruins. Yet in fact the one catastrophe which is worse than all these put together is mortal sin and the ruin of a soul; and far from being a pious exaggeration this statement is plain naked truth. "If we could for a moment see things as they are and as God sees them, we should realise this truth for ever. . . And if we do try to see things as God sees them, our first thought is that the love of God and of our neighbour on which all life should depend has almost vanished as a force in modern society. . . . -If we once recognise that we all belong to one family, that our first duty is to our Father Who is in Heaven and our second duty is to our brothers who are on earth, economic difficulties will disappear. Giving will be easy and receiving will be without shame. . . . "Religion is in many ways bound up with the family. Christ Himself Who is our God, our, Way, our Truth, our Life, spent 3G years of his life in a He raised small home at Nazareth. the tone and standard of everything in our life. • . . "This divine raising of the standard of everything in our life, this lifting of our everyday actions to a high spiritual level makes us not only better servants of God, but far happier and more cri• cient human beings. "Religion and family life stand together. When family life is weak par ents shirk their responsibilities. Sometimes they do not want children: if they have them they gladly hand over the responsibility of educating them to others. "The rich send their children to preparat.-1-y school- and boarding schools. the poor have their children cared for by the State with its system of education which aims at training their minds and looking after their bodies: but rich and poor alike are sadly wanting in the sense of responsibility for their children. "The result is seen when the children Then as soon as they leave school. are beginning to earn their living they use their home as a place for quick meals and for dressing and for sleeping. and seek their happiness and amusement elsewhere. -Especially is this true in our cities and in the houses of the poor: the city otlers places of amusement, the home offers little or no attraction. The parents seldom try to make the parental house a real home, a bond of unity between all members of the family. "And if we lose our appreciation of family life we shall lose our traditional What love for the idea of the home. will take its place? "In Russia the family tie is discouraged. the family does not count for much. ,The State is the unit to which all ate to belong, which is to command all and to direct all, and to do every.

"Loving God .and toying our neigh1 our presuppose that man is free and And it is not the slave of a system. is to be feared that this freedom is endangered not only in the Communis tic State of Russia, but in the economic slavery of the factories of our own great cities in England. . . . "One particular result of girls being employed in the factory is that after leaving school they spend their early lives working at machines and consequently knows little of managing a home and often care nothing for it. A fter the day's work, amusement and recreation are what they want; and as loone provides nothing attractive, the street and the cinema and the dance hall draw them for ,the evening. . . . "Make Home-Life Stronger." - As Catholics our aim should be to make home and family life strong"In .a Catholic home God will come first, and all who belong to a Catholic family will put the Will of God Our Father and the avoidance of sin first in their lives. "Let us nave every Catholic home consecrated to the Sacred Heart, let the family have the house blessed and keep a lamp burning before a picture or statue of the Sacred Heart. Let us have grace said before and after meals; if possible let the Rosary or some short prayers be said at night in the home. early or late as may be more convenient, so that all who live there may feel that God is in the home. that He watches over its members. "Once a year at Christmas most families in England try to make their dwelling-place a real home in the best sense of the word. . . . Is it too much to hope that families should have some of this spirit at other times of the year, that parents and children alike should take more pride in their homes and learn to love them as Christ loved His home a t Nazareth? "Modern tastes and conditions and amusements are against this, it is true; Fut we feel so deeply the importance of family life, we see so clearly that where family life is strong and good there the love of God and of our neighbour is a lso strung and good, that we urge you to strive your utmost to restore t he strength and sanctit of family life m odelled on that of the rio!y a t Nazareth.-

These means of transport, with which the Bishop will visit the distant isles of his Vicariate. have been furnished by the "Miva," a German society founded for the purpose of supplying missionaries with means of transport on land, sea, and in the air. Father Toenies, on his way to the North Solomon Islands, has already received instructions from the "Miva" for piloting the machines, and for taking care of their upkeep and repair. Skilled professional aviators will accompany the aeroplanes to their destination in the island.

The compassion of Pope Pius XI. for victims of the unemployment plague does not confine itself to mere expressions of his sympathy. He has taken the practicaloway of attesting its genuineness by the falt that despite the eco. nomic crisis, he has not hesitated to give instructions to go on with the construction of six new Grands Seminaries. This information the Holy Father gave to the Vicars General of Lyons. Nice, and Limoges in an audience accorded to. them, in which he discussed the mode of application in the French dioceses of his Encyclical, "Nova impendet." "The first of charities," said Pius XI. to them. "is tsi give work to the workers." A fter six years' service in London, Seostris Sidarouss Pasha. Egypt's only Catholic Pasha and the only Catholic member of the diplomatic corps of his country, has now assumed the post of Egyptian Minister to the United States, Immediately after presenting his credentials in Washington.

OUR DEAD -It is a holy and a wholesome thought to pray for the dead.'
THE LATE MRS. BRIDGET MARIA VOWELS. A well-known and highly respected resident of Perth, in the person of Mrs. Bridget Maria Vowels, passed to her eternal reward on the 30th. of last month. She had reached the age of 76 years. Until a little while ago, when Time's infirmities minimised her activities, she was a devout worshipper at St. Brigid's, West Perth. Rain or shine on Sundays and holydays, during the 25 years of her residence, she was before the altar paying aer tribute to the Divine Presence. A most fervent and practical Catholic, she was also a deDuring the war a voted mother. great bereavement befel her when she lost a much-loved son, the late LieuHis death tenant Phil Vowels, M.C. was ever a poignant memory to her. She had all the wonderful and vivid faith of the Irish Catholic exiles who sowed the seed of Faith in this land. Heaven was always near to her. Her life, Tough not without many cares, Her deep and had s consolations. abiding faith in the loving Fatherhood of God gave her strength to accept with fortitude those trials and .vicissitudes that are the common lot of mankind, and throughout her illness to the end her thoughts were of Heaven. The deceased came to Australia from Kilkenny, Ireland. When nineteen years of age, she arrived in Victoria and settied in Horsham. where 'she married, and her seven children were born. A sister, Mrs. P. Walsh, still resides there. The funeral left St. Brigid's, where Requiem Mass was celebrated by Monsignor Fagan for the repose of her soul. The Monsignor paid a touching tribute in a brief address to the .splendid qualities of the deceased, whose devout lire was an example of practical Catholicity. Sister M.

And new the whole teing is csashing in. The Pr aid emi.lence of our nation as the werla.hop of the world s at an end, a te-I the fortis:. look, bleak and alarm. ing. The "enward mar('h" has ended in a desert, "He Wept Over It." We should be more than human if we were not conscious of an impulse te exult. Our prophecies have proved correct. The "foolishness of God" has once more shown itself superior to "the wisdom of the wise." What *more natural if we should exploit the disaster that has overtaken our fellow countrymen as a victory for ourselves? A re we so greatly to blame if we feel inclined to rub salt in their wounds? Vet at this point a picture rises in our mind of One Whose divinely authoritative counsels had been also fleuted by His nation • Unconscious of the awful fate they were inviting, the leaders of His people plotted to put Him Who might have saved them out of the way. And He, surveying the city in which His Death would be compassed, and which, in the years to come was to be trodden under foot and its people scattered to the ends of the earth, wept over it. We have reason just now, it would seem, to remember the divine magnanimity of those tears. England might have been so different. Its destiny was planned on a noble scale. Its people had great natural endowments. They possessed a sense of justice almost unique. They were adaptable and learned readily the culture of the older world. They were brave and they possessed rare imaginative gifts. More than this: they received the Faith. Their land was known as Our LasW's Dowry. From its fertile valleys rose the towers of lordly cathedrals, of splendid abbeys, of village churches innumerable. In the days when a broader culture widened men's minds. England possessed teachers who combined holiness with learning. Men like the Blessed Thomas More and the Blessed John Fisher could have piloted her safely through those new and dangerous times and created a civilisation based on religion and permeated through and through with the rich spirit of Catholicism, hal:,ing a noble literature and a contented people' That design was wrecked by apostasy from the Faith. In its place has arisen a hideous and vulgar civilisation lacking depth. grandeur and stability.. Oh. the pity of it! The Self-Imposed Tragedy. The doom which threatens a people which has so wantonly flung away its opportunities cannot be light. We have given hostages to fortune. Great cities have spread themselves out in the assurance that the system they represent is to last for ever. The urbanised populations which crowd those cities are physically and mentally enmeshed in the toils of the industries new collapsing, and have no alternative to it. Our institutions, our ways of life. are built on the supposition that w hat has been will be. We are like men penned in an earthquake-threatened town whose tall buildings. ()rice their pride, now spell death. The dislocation and chaos of the years to come must involve bitter tragedy for thousands of English households. And they who suffer must do so. in the vast majority of cases, without the consolations of the Faith. Unshepherded. they must prove an .easy prey for the forces of destruction. And they are our own flesh and blood. Children and women and men—we have known them in their homes. "But they have brought this on themselves. It is their love of pleasure, their credulous following of blind leaders, their acquiescence in the materialism of the times which are responsible." Yet, that is true, but so also is this: "When He drew near, seeing the city, He wept over it."

HOME, SWEET HOME 'Mid pleasures and palaces, wherever we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home." I SAW THE SUN AT MIDNIGHT. saw the Sun at midnight, rising red, Deep-hued, yet glowing, heavy with the s tain Of blood-compassion, and I saw It gain S wiftly in size and growing till It spread Over the stars; the heavens bowed their head, As from Its heart slow dripped a crimson rain. Then a great tremor shook It, as if pain. The night tell, moaning, as It hung there dead. 0 Christ, 0 bleeding Heart of Sun O flame! T hou gayest Thine agony as if our life's worth, And makest it infinite, lest we have dearth Of rights wherewith to call upon Thy Name; Thou pawnest Heaven as a pledge for Earth, And for our glory sufferest all shame. —Joseph Mary Plunkett. WORDS OF WISDOM. The good God often sends His servants several crosses and much interior dryness in order to prove whether they helping Him to bear His are capable cross before giving them the treasures of His grace. And as to what regards yourself more particularly, I beseech you again and again to go on increasing in virtue by continual progress, letting your wholesome examples be like a shining light before the eyes of all.—St. Francis Xavier. There is, believe me. a wide difference between those who trust in God while they are nevertheless furnished with all things which are necessary for the support and convenience of life, and those who do the same in extreme destitution.----St Francis Xavier. W hen we look back at the end of a year and see how many whom we know have gone out of this world since the year began, it comes home to us—or ought to—how close life and death stand together. There are so many things that are unimportant in the grave. It is one thing to be patient in trying to prevent sin, and sympathetic with weak people of good intentions, and it is quite another thing to make little of grave offences against morality• It is usually those who are the best friends of the right who are the most charitable towards those who go wrong. But they make their position Clear. and do not encourage sinful conduct. It is a masterly stroke to triumph over our own bodies. that we may Parry all blows in the other combats in this life In my opinion, this advantage is .so great that all who have acquired it will make little account of the labours they must endure in the first war, and it must. moreover, cause them to everywhere enjoy great peace. —St. Teresa. A thing very pleasing to Our Lord and profitable to the soul is to offer Him our heart with much affection. that Be may dwell therein, and then to have a treasure of good works to present .to Him: for the Jews. after receiving Him with great pomp, let Him leave their city without giving Him to eat. WHY—? If it be asked why is it that Almighty God, All-rich, Eternal. Infinite in all perfections as He is, should seek for satisfaction or punishment from such as us. puny creatures of a day, we answer that although it is trues that Clod is perfect in happiness and joy, and that our sins cannot rob Him of ?, nY portion of His essential glory and napPiness, nor any penance add anything to it. vet Tie rules the universe
with Justice and His Wisdom -requires that the demands of Justice be satisfiel. THE BEST OFFERING. To whatever land we may belong by birth or race, we are all one in Christ; all destined to immortality, all partakers in the blood of Calvary, and all, therefore, intended by Our Blessed Redeemer to profess His Faith, and to make use of His Sacraments. To save souls is to imitate Christ; to bring souls to Him is the sweetest offering we can make Him. To draw men to real and practical belief in the Incarnation, in the Eucharistic Presence, in the beneficent gifts of the priesthood, and in the intercessory office of Christ's Mother and His saints is worth all our efforts and all our sacrifices. What a field is there lying around us, stretching far on every side, for the zeal and the missionary spirit of Catholics! ST. JOHN, THE WELL-BELOVED. The feast of St. John the Evangelist, happened on the 27th. of December. Writing of this Saint, in "Ave Maria," y ears ago. Father Van Tricht, S.J., said: To great men history has given magnificent names: she styles them grand. good, victorious, triumphant. This one she calls the well-beloved"—yes, "the well-beloved." Arrived at the extreme limits of life, he carried about in his worn-out body the relics of a century of years, but a heart—a heart blooming with the freshness of youth. Younger companions might guide his footsteps, but his heart ran before them all in the race of love. His forehead was crowned with a mass of snowy hair, but his glance had not lost its brightness nor its tenderness, and his lips had not forgotten how to smile. Nevertheless, his life had been known prisons, chains trials. He had known prisons, chains. scourges; the pains of martyrdom. without the martyr's palm, He had known sorrows the most poignant the perfidieus blows of calumny, and the treache-y of friendship. But his heart had survived all these storms: he had carried it above them, undaunted, fearless. unscathed. Sometimes, questioning the secret of his perpetual youth, his friends would say to themselves: "This disciple will never die!" Sometimes. also, as of a father, they asked for the story of his experiences, and he. as is usual with the aged, recounted them. with this touching aphorism: "My dear little children, love, love one another-. And, recalling St. Paul, "To love,- he added. "is to be good and patient with others: not to envy their success or their triumphs; to think no evil of any one: not to rejoice at their downfall, but to compassionate their sorrows. To love is tb suffer all things. to believe all things. to hope all things. to endure all things: it is to forget oneself0 my children, my dear little children love one another?" We speak of St. John—St. John. the Apostle of the heart: St. John. the wellbeloved and truly loving: St. John, the only one faithful unto death: St. John, the last at the foot of the Cross, and the first at the tomb of his Master. Jesus was about to die. In the midst of the most agonising pains He felt a supreme anxiety. and He looked through the world—for what? He sought a heart so pure. so tender, sr loving, so sweet, so strong and so deep. that He might deposit therein with His trembling, dying hands the only treasure that bound Him to this earth-the broken Heart of His Mother St. John was there, and Christ need eel no longer. "Mother, Mother." He cried out, in tones which still reverberate through the centuries—"Mother, behold Thy son!" And the heart of John trembling in an ecstasy of love, opened to shelter the Heart of Mary for ever And if You ask where St. John learn-

PRAYERS FOR THE DYING. To pray for the dying is to co-operate with Christ in the sublime work of redemption. Every day an average of 120,000 die How many of these. think you, are ready to be called to appear before the Face of the Most High? How many may have thought to live still many years. years during which they might put this and that right? How many may, even at this moment, be whispering: "If I had only known. Now it is too late to do anything!" How many may be struggling to steady their thoughts, to prepare for that last confession upon which so much may depend? Of all the sights that wring tears from the eyes of observers, few are more terrible than the sight of a human being dying and afraid to die. No one who has ever assisted at the death-bed of a person afraid to die can ever forget the experience And how many called to die to-day may be forced. through one cause and another, to pass through their trial without the consolation of the Last Sacraments? Will these souls, if helped to-day by our prayers. forget to pray for us when our own hour shall come? Gratitude may be a little rare on earth, but it abounds in heaven; we shall not be forgotten. It will be easy to die after praying for the dying every day of one's life. for "With the same measure that you shall mete withal it shall be measured to you again." "Heart of Jesus, once in agony, have mercy on the dying!"

Aunt Bessy's Corner My Little Children.-'Tis not out of place to name you so, since St. John, in addressing the early Christians, included even the bearded and hoary in this tenderest of Besides, it reminds me to retitles. mind you at the beginning of this New Year. of the motto of the Corner, which was the theme of his continuous sermon. namely. "Little children love one May we each, indeed, love another." one another in truth and in deed through every day of 1932, for, if we love one another we will help not only each other. but the lame dogs and every other creature that passes our way in pain or in need. The motto will also keep alive within us the zeal and interest for the welfare of the Bushies, so I trust you won't grumble and turn your backs on Aunty if she still keeps pleading to you on their behalf. I owe my grown-ups and the little ones a gratitude that is genuine and deep for their generous response All of you to the Lemonade Bottlehave responded so munificently that you see we have the Niagara Falls now in our Corner, and, at the season when water is scarce, and when the taps above the bath yield naught until the stars come out. An overflow of any kind is refreshing to look on, and precious to catch, so I'm going to sit under the overflow until the end of March. I do trust it will not prove to be a dnle ble, but, when human hearts make up t he main, surely the supply will not be cut off for fear of a shortage that could be handy economised from the wasteful ways in which most of us use our wealth. I may be forgiven, too, for taking a laudable pride in the nieces and nephews whose response, as the Editor remarked. was magnificent. If they made childish sacrifices I know they were none the less sweet, for, when the Australian character gives, it gives with a good heart and with, perhaps. a more open hand than the wise would ap. prove—however. may the good God leave us such a trait. The bottle which went into Dr. .McMahon held f17 9s 9d in threepenny bits, and the overflow up till Xmas Eve was £16 Os 9d, making the grand total of fal 105 6d. This. I think, was augmented by £4 from the Guessing Competition, of which the Bottle formed the centre at the garden fete held in honour of the Queens at It pleased the Archbishops' Palace. me when making up the total to find that the number of pounds corresponded with the number of human years which Our Divine Lord spent here on earth. but that didn't make me object to the extra that was added on by Dr. McMahon. Dr. McMahon has not been the least generous contributor to our Bottle. He transferred many amounts which were sent to him to the Cornerites' appeal. and I also have suspicions about a few amounts which reached me under fancy names: therefore I am grateful to everybody, and most of all to Our Blessed Lady and Little Jane McClory. It is the first appeal I have made since a day long ago when I appealed to a stern father on behalf of an enterprising brother who had taken t he fertner's bike out to test it and p romptly punctured the tyreTs there such a thing as telepathy? know not, hut some things make it seem as if there is. For instance, on the day when the affair for the Queens was to be held at the Archbishop's Palace,I happened to ask someone in the defice the following: "I suppose if the Hole Father, or the King and Queen of England summoned us to appear before them, we would :lust have to pack up our trunks and go. wouldn't we?" "Three Asp ros a day have a soothing effect on a disordered brain." was the reply when. lo! the 'phone rang and there came a quick order to have the L.B. at the Palace by evening, in order that she could he presented to Society. Such a flutter, but, unlike most ladies. we didn't have to give her two hours to put on the hat, because it had al; ready been glued on, and only that morning her little jazz apron had been tied on the L.B. ton with a butterfly bow at the back that would turn any lassie see-green with jealousy. So she went, leaving me without a sigh. and lsearing the handsome number of 1.399 threepenny bits to be guessed at and counted out. I hope you all read the account by "Onlooker" in last week's "Record," and T hope, too, that some artist may he able to take a photo of t he bottle So that's that, mv little children, all the more my little children if You are old and hoary, and in such need of companionship as to look for it in this C'erner. for, although I. too, am old, I was not above and beyond fir(ling pleasure and joy in the Children's letters before Ibecame their Aunty. We have filled the bottle, and we are coax-
ing the overflow, so I hope Dr. McMahon will not have to say on the Bushies' behalf what the Scotch minister found it necessary to say to his flock: "Well, friends, the kirk is urgently in need of siller, and as we have failed to get the money by all honest means, we will have to see now what a bazaar can do for us." AUNT BESSY. "YOUTH AND THE HANDS OF A BOY." (I trust I will not be put in gaol for borrowing and acknowledging after, but these extracts are culled from Rev. Father Locking ton's Editorial in "Riverview"s' Annual for 1931.—A.B.) "The swift eagerness of youth, its fleeting enthusiasms, its ever-seething energy are natural, and there is no need te try and sober these down to tht sedate slowness of age with its werldly prudence and its inertia of The power of youth is . . . beautifully shown in these words spoken by a teacher to the students of a sister-college of Riverview. St. Ignatius' C ellege, San Francisco. He used the title, "The Hands of a Boy," and spoke as "The Innocent of Hand!

The vast majority of these are compelieo to leave school at iatest when fourteen years of age.

Is it too much to expect from him that he will be not merely a soldier, but an officer in the army of Christ the King. and use all his power to lead those less fortunate? The answer is with the College Graduate."— W. I. Lockington, S.J. OVERHEARD IN THE SCHOOLROOM, Oliver Cromwell—A lecture having been given on Cromwell, the boys were told to write down what they knew about him. One essay ran thus: "Oliver Cromwell had a strong will: he was ugly and had red hair: he also had a u art on the back of his neck, but behind it there was deep religious feeling." Adam.—"Now children." said the teacher. "can any of you tell me why Adam was made a man?" The class meditated for some minutes until one title girl happened on the truth at once and replied: "Please, sir, if he'd been made a baby there wouldn't have been nobody to nurse him." The Flea of Sodom.----Teacher, show. jog some Scripture pictures to her class, said: "You know, children. that Lot was commanded to take his wife and daughter and flee from Sodom. Here y ou see Lot, and on the other side his daughter. and in the background is the burning city. It is a beautiful pie. ture. Would any of you like to ask me any question about it?"

SAD CASE OF COLLAPSE. .After apparently having had the time of his life in the summer waves of the sea, Master Freddy Wilkin collapsed suddenly yesterday on the sands at Crawley. He was aged 11 years The Coroner's inquest was most pathetic. Mrs. Wilkins sorrowfully owned to having given the little lad two large helpings of iced Haile mange at the supper of the previous evening, and also remembered that Freddy had pleaded for and was given three lots of cherry pie at dinner that day. Mr. Sour Grapes, orchard owner of XYZ, PerthFremantle-road, Cottesloe, identified the deceased as bearing a strong resemb lance to one of a party of boys who had robbed his trees of most of the green fruit late on New Year's night. Miss A rabella Maul Wilkins. aged seven years, said that previous to leaving fot C rawley, she and her brother had visited a soft drinks' shop, and that Freddy had drank four ginger-beers at one go. Mr. Filemup, licensee of the "Popularity Ice-Cream Cart," gave evidence to the effect of having served nine ice-creams of various sizes to the little fellow just two hours before the

It is difficult to know just who is to blame." he remarked. as he stood with his hat raised, gazing reverently at what remained of Freddy. Mourn not for him, oh sand, Freddy has gone to a better land.

Church Serene Amid Sorrows Scientist Hails Renewal of Catholic Energy. "Be proud to belong to the Church which is so denied, so criticised, se maligned, s ferociousle attacked, the object of so much underhanded and violent persecution, and which continues her way in the midst of insults unmoved!, indefatigable, with her eyes liftei te the sky, and on her lips the continuous murmur of psalms and hymns. She was thought dead, but she is more alive than ever." This advice was given by M. Pierre Termier, president of. the French Geological Society, at the congress of the Catholic Students' Federation. "Writers and thinkers among the greatest, poets among the purest, artists among the most exalted, and scientists among the boldest bow their heads to her in humble salutation." said the famous scientist: "and some of them who have found their paths 'by fe,..liag along in the darkest shadows and who have come back from long journeys, as soon as they set foot on the pars-is of her temples. fail to their knees and weep. "Your groups so numerous and so active are but a manifestation of that renewal of Catholic energy which is se touching to all humanity. Thirty years ago they would have been impossible: tosia.- they appear quite natural : tomorrow they will set a rule for the w orld: and then the truth which men who did not realise what thee were doing have torn away from the masses of the people, from the workers, from the poor, from those whom Christ most loved in the course of his terrestrial soiourn the truth will be restored to all our brothers, to the most lowly as well 25 the most gifted."

Karoola," with its 76 tourThe s ing girls n board, arrived at Albany early on Xmas morn Lut owing to the late arrival of the mail train, the boat w as delayed a few hours. Since then the sea has been behaving itself remarkably well. and all are now up and about and enjoying every minute of the time. For most it is a novel experience, it being their first sea trip, and they ask innumerable questions as to the how, the why, and the whereThe roll is called at 10 am., fore. and an outline of the proposed activities for the day is given to the girls, and. needless -to say, they all enter whole-heartedly :nto everything. Diaries are much in evidence, and letter-writing takes up a great deal of their time. One night there was a fancy-dress ball on deck, and many and varied were the costumes worn. It was surprising how novel were some of them, considering that few had come preparAnother night the girls ed for that gave an excellent concert in the First saloon. Many choruses were sung and among those who rendered individual items were Misses Peters, Dorothy Roach, Mavis Ruck. Barbara Mitchell, Coralie. Condon. Allison, Willoughby, Mildred Petherick. and Una Atkinson. The ship's orchestra helps very considerably in the social life of the boat, their services being freely given for the benefit of passengers in all classes. On Sunday morning the Rev. Mr. Stores, of St. George's College, conducted a service in the saloon, and Miss Cof• fey collected the Catholic girls and all recited the Rosary and the Litany. Misses D. Tangney and L.

Now that the summer sales are acre once again, many little pieces of remnants can be purchased at very reasonable prices, and what dainty frocks can be made out of these pieces of materials. Dainty little house frocks can be made out of printed hair-cords, trobolcoe, cessarine, and mans- other fancy printed materials. Voiles this season are varied in patterns. Spots seem to be the most pre dominant, and these come in different shapes and sizes from the tiny pin spot to those the size of a penny. Trimming for the dresses this summer is to be found in frills, rows and rows of these adorning the skirts, and how dainty and girlish these look. Shantung has regained its popularity- This material is very cool and can be washed and ironed within a few minutes. These are trimmed with the same silk carried out in floral designs. The frocks have little coats to match and these come in different lengths, and are trimmed with frills and bands of silk to match. The most fashionable shoes are made of floral materials to match the frocks. These are not very expensive, and are very cool and comfortable. The black satin court shoe is still to be seen, also the black satin bar. These look well With frocks of light weight, such as ninons, voiles, and georgettes. Crochet work is coming into its own again, and most of the weekly and monthly papers are printing designs and instructions for petticoats and nightdress yokes, children's coats, bonnets. etc • The woollen work upon Which many of us spent our winter 'evenings has now to be put aside, as the weather is unsuitable for such, but 'cotton anti silk may be quite satisfactorily worked.

OUR STORY—
Italian Vintage Two donkeys were fighting senselessly and the house-wedged street was so narrow that the huge pale mauve car had to stop. And from his threshold A ntonio, dusty, hot and hungry with a healthy youth's hunger. watched the scene with his keen big dark eyes. Donkeys fought often and common carts were stopped all too often—waiting for the master to separate his obstreperous animals and to clear the way for the traffic behind, but big resplendent cars were rather rare in that Abruzzi village. They commanded attention. They stirred one's interest and made one loiter on the threshold, forgetting all about the meal smoking cn the table. And their occupants— Slowly and yet eagerly, Antonio shifted his glance from the shining engine and looked long and steadily at the people inside. Madonna! He swallowed his breath. Could he believe his eyes that such a beautiful woman was there in all reality and not in a dream? Like a flower, carefully reared and tended, she seemed to him in her soft-toned clinging garments, with her face—tinted white and pearlrose, her tiny—so tiny—mouth and extraordinarily gentle grec eyes. ''Madonna mia—these foreigners," he muttered under his breath and left the gratefully shadowed threshold for the hot middle of the road. She leant back on the cushions, her pale golden head etched clear against the mauve cloth. Her grey-haired companion seemed impatiently angry at the delay. hut the soft rose mouth kept on smiling. And Antonio drew near, blessing Giuseppe's obdurate donkeys in his heart. It sent music through hi blood just to look at her—so cool and golden and lovely. So he stood, unaware of his own staring eyes. And she caught his glance and smiled at him. Then she touched the old man's sleeve and said something the young Italian could not hear. But her smile went like strong wine to his head. He wished he. had not been so dusty and dirty. A morning's work in the marble quarries made for little elegance. All in him longed for some possible future occasion when she might see him, clad in h's Sunday garments, dancing and singing on the little Piazza outside the church. so that she might appraise him at his best. interpreted in terms of a white coat and scarlet ribbons. But now, of course. she only smiled at him out of pity. Un• consciously he raised a brown hand and tried to rub some dust off his hot face. At that moment the donkeys decid ed to call a truce. The hooter sent unfamiliar echoes down the narrow grey street. The roung palegolden girl leant out of the window and gave a smile to the handful of staring urchins gathered round the car. She did not look again at Antonio, but he was watching her intently, solemnly, almost fearfully, and just at the very moment when the car started winding its slow way, a little grey glove dropped out of the window. His temples burning. Antonio rushed to pick it up. He saw an absurdly tiny hand stretched out and his work roughened hot fingers touched it for a blissful moment. Scarcely aware of his audacity, he bent his head and pressed his lips to something cool and warm and fragrant. He heard a gentle little laugh, a word of thanks in broken Italian, and the car moved onThere, in the middle of the hot dusty road, Antonio stood, heaven's own fragrance lingering on his mouth, his rough horny palm remembering that sweet cool touch. And like one in a dream. he walked inside his house, crossed himself and sat down to give but indifferent attention to the steaming poienta and the sour red wine. • "That big automobile," remarked his unheeding mother. "with those foreigners for the Albergo Imperiale' Ah, but they have money to spend!" "They have beauty," muttered An. tonio inaudibly, whilst all in him went aglow at the precious information: "Albergo Imperiale.- And to-day he would be free . soon after dinner, He would put on his white shirt and coax his mother to let him wear his scarlet scarf —'just for an hour. He would plead a visit to Giulia. But the thought of Giulia darkened his face. Pretty, but so hard in feature and outline! Giulia' s hands did not leave you remembering cool frog. They were hot and strong— ranee. fit hands for a girl who worked in a vineyard and carried heavy burdens And Giulia's smile was so broad and open.

gether and refused to have any fruit. Two hours of work and then freedom! A surreptitious visit to the attic. One had to be careful. "Madre" might ask such prying questions and he wished to tell her nothing. "Madre" thought girls like Giulia were beautiful, because they worked hard. Well, Giulia . . . he blushed furiously, searching for his white shirt . . • Giulia was there and some day he supposed he would have to hold her big red hand at the altar. But—but—this was so different. This was what made rich and noble "signori" sing songs and drink wine and think of flowers and moonlight. You married a wife—thinking of the children to come and of the good care of the house—but you could love for loveliness. And you sang s'ongs about it. "She smiled at me," Antonio argued stubbornly, trying to arrange his sumptuous scarlet scarf. "And I looked hot and dirty and I held that big hammer in my hands and oh—my hair—was it not untidy?" And now he brushed it and oiled it liberally and made it lie, sleek and shiny. He scrubbed all the dust off his tanned cheeks and put a cheap ring with a bit of green glass on his finger. He exchanged his working boots for patent leather shoes, which pinched and hurt. He thrust his shapely legs into badly cut brown trousers. At the last moment he decided that his white silk shirt and scarlet scarf might look too common. So he brought out his greatest treasure a worn blue and black striped waistcoat, and put it on, exchanging the scarf for a drab brown tie, dotted with pinkHe had bought it in Milan, and it had cost ten lire. He looked at himself in the mirror and smiled. A grey trilby hat succeeded in putting the last touch of ordinarines on him and in making him completely satisfied. One unaccustomed ha:ifi clasping a pair of white cotton gloves, he left the house by the back yard. His Mother, busy with her fruit; had never seen him. So all was well. And in the shimmering green twilight. Antonio picked his way to the Albergo. rehearsing a speech he was going to make to Leonardo, his father's cousin, who looked after the hotel kitchen and bought their wine and fruit on the market. The small white hotel flashed its lights on him as he stealthily crossed the tiny piazza. The big dining room windows were shimmering with light through the pale pink net of the curtains. He heard voices, laughter, and the noise made by china and cutlery His temples throbbed. She was among them. talking and laughing. A t the very door, he Halted. timid and uncertain. What would he say? That he came to see her because she had smiled on him earlier in the day? Foreigners were mad, h, reflected, but even their madness had limits to it He should have some purpose in coming to her. He cursed himself for not having considered this before. He would !so hack to the house and come again with some gift. A fiasco of0the home-made wine might do. . . . In less than twenty minutes he was back, panting. a huge straw-covered bottle in his arms. And again he halted and decided to skirt round the hotel and look for old Leonardo in the kitchen. His temples beat maddeningly as he plunged down the oleander path which ran along the side wall of the 'Albergo.Laughter from the dining room floated towards him, as he lifted the kitchen door handle and walked in. Leonardo. hot, red and fat, fussed about in a white smock. On seeing his cousin's son conic in. his big red mouth opened very wide. "Anyone dead at home, Antonio?" he shouted, taking in the youth's unusual attire. "All is well," replied Antonio and began stammering . . . "Leonardo, I have brought some wine," he faltered. "But we need none, my boy, not tonightAnd why should- you bring it, anyway? Run away, for I cannot talk to you. We are so busy. . . . And there is an English "milor' and his daughter. and they want all the hest, and my braised chickens are not yet cooked. Acidic', Antonio." 'Leonardo, did the `Milort arrive in a big mauve automobile, and if he did —I must speak to his daughter. She dropped her glove and I picked it up and I kissed her hand and I have brought her this wine. She had smiled at me. Leonardo." He hated himself for being so outspoken. and vet he felt he had to tell someone It had burned in him the whole day long, this strange wild longing f,):fragrance against his lips.
And Leonardo might helpBut Leonardo stared at him in silence. "I must see her again," repeated Antonio. "I was dusty and dirty when she saw me first and yet she smiled. Leonardo —I must see her!" The elder man shook his head. "If you had any sense left in you, Antonio,- he said kindly, "you would go home and sleep off your madness. As it is, all I can tell you is that our guests will come out on to the verandah when they have had their chicken and their fruit, and—" he shrugged. "I happen to be short-handed to-night. You might serve the coffee, but, certainly, you cannot speak to her. She is a '3./filor's' daughter —Antonio." "She smiled at me," repeated the youth stubbornly. "Leonardo, I shall not serve the coffee. I wish to look at her again and to leave this wine for her." Leonardo scowled into his stumpy white beard and turned to a steaming saucepan on the cooking stove' "I have no desire to be dragged into your madness,- he flung angrily over his shoulder. "There is the garden and the guests will be on the verandah. But you will be trespassing and I k now nothing about it." Antonio sighed. Leonardo had once been young, too. He might have understood. There were things in a w oman's smile which were like strong red wine. What mattered it—if she was a `Milor's' daughter and he an unlettered quarry-worker? But Leonardo refused to be of assistance. Antonio picked up his fiaso and moved t ) the door. The elder man appeared too engrossed in his chickens to pay any further attention to his cousin s mad son. Yet at this moment the door, leading into the inner passage, was flung open and the excited path-one ran into the kitchen. Wildly gesturing, he shouted to Leonardo that the guests were anxious to watch the famous native process of braising chickens. A large spoon fell out of the cook's hand and clattered on to the stone floor, but Antonio never heard the crash. For, just behind the fat pigmy figure of the padrone stood a merry laughing group of curious, intrigued guests • The English 'Milor' and his daughter, divine, lovely. so changed and yet so much the same in a soft clinging white frock. her pale golden hair gathering in tiny rebellious curls round her smooth ivoried forehead. Leonardo gasped, bent down to pick up his ladle and gasped again. Antonio, clasping the huge heavy fiasco in his arms, paled under his deep tan. T here she was, standing but a few steps away from him, lovely, young and golden and his throat went suddenly dry. He moved a little nearer to the front door. His fingers shook against the straw-plaited fiasco. He w anted to go and wanted to stay. With her so near he knew he'd never dare to speak to her, and yet all within him Yearned so to venture. The guests crowded round the oven, w atching. fascinated, the deft manipulations of Leonardo. Some of the men noticed Antonio The fat padsone, preoccupied as he was, threw a questioning look in the young man's direction. Then the golden-haired girl looked too. She seemed to recognise him—unsmilingly so- She pushed a lovely bare arm into that of her father's and said something to him. He turned his grey head and scanned Antonio's figure. A scarcely perceptible smile curved the aristocratic mouth. It may have been a moment of some strange alchemy for Antonio. As in a flash, he stood there, by the door, ashamedly aware of his ridiculous tie and waistcoat and the badly shaped cheap shoes which hurt aria pinched his work-worn feet. Some telepathic alchemy transmuted the girl's look and her father's smile, as well as those few words spoken in a—to him, Antonio— alien tongue, into something comprehensible and appalling lucid., He wished himself back in the middle of the road, with marble dust on his cheeks and his ordinary clothes fitly and congruously encasing his body. And he stood still, humbly, poignantly conscious that the look she gave him w as that of indulgent commiseration. When he raised his head again, the kitchen was empty and Leonardo's voice boomed from some strange distance: "You--silly soul --why would you not say something? The :Milos's daughter saw you and she said to the Padrone what a fine fellow you must look when at work in the quarry I teL you—she will ask her father to take her there, some day!" How he hated Leonardo's voice, but politeness forbade interrupting. And
Saturday, January 9, 1932, when the cook had finished, Antonio said in level tones: "I believe you were right, cousin. It was my little joke. Here is some wine for your supper. I think I will ask my padrone for a few days of freedom and travel to Venice to-morrow, Ah—Giulia wants a necklace of those green beads you can buy at Murane. Addio, Leonardo!" Hot of cheek and temple, he left the Albergo, to discard all pretences in the cool evening fragrance of the oleanders. And back home he went by furtive ways and reached his little attic room. And there in poignant, violent gestures, he tore away the tawdry cheap clothes which, as he would have it, had denied him the memory of yet another smile. Yet,on going to bed, sober and cornposed 'Antonio pressed his right palm Life ran past you in to his lips. flashes of days and this, his day, had gone by. giving him a bitterness and a triumph —Ralph Livesey, in "Carltas."

She: "'My uncle was a great seamar before he was caught by the enemy." He: "My uncle was a bootlegger, too." The great financier was talking, the company listening with great interest.
