The poems are most valuable for the insight they give into the manners and customs of the ancient Irish. The Ossianic period covers roughly the first four centuries of the Christian Era. It derives its name from the author of the poems—Ossian, the warrior poet—who was the son of the famous Finn MacCool. Some idea of the strange though most musical rhyming system of Ossians poems may be gained from the following translation of the opening stanzas. Ossian had just returned from a distant expedition after long absence. apparently dishahile and hurlgry:

SOCIAL NOTES: By "KATHLEEN" Many of us remember, as we wander through the parks or the bush, verses learned in our school days. One poem beginning: " Woodman, spare that tree, Touch not a single bough; In youth it sheltered me, And I'll protect it now"— However, my comes to one's mind. sympathy was always with the woodman. Why should he not cut down a tree when it has outlived its usefulness. A dead tree is not a thing of beauty, but it can be a real menace. And if we do wish to be sentimental, then we should express that sentiment in a practical way, by planting other trees which will in time shelter those yet unborn. I would even coin a new slogan applicable tca the present months, and it would be: "Plant a tree Some years ago Arbor Day to-day." was one of our great days, but it seems to have been caught in the Let it be rethroes of depression. vived this year. If every family planted but one tree each season, a great work would be done, and a work, too, that will benefit those of the next generation. Our object in life should not be to live just for the present, but to live that posterity might benefit. In Canberra some notable research work is being carried out by those qualified to undertake same. Would it not be a wonderful achievement if they could produce a drought-resisting tree, so that we could turn our Nullabor Plain from a treeless waste to a land with long lines of trees rustling in the breeze--a sanctuary for our native birds and animals. I note with great pleasure that the Catholic Young Ladies' Club is about to launch into the realms of debate, and I hope the contest will be open to the public, that we may go along in our numbers to encourage them. Now that a start is made, I expect to see one team at least from each convent school and college forming debating teams, and holding inter-school conThe wide reading to get data tests. for these will do an immense amount of good to those taking part, and it will give confidence to others who, from an inferiority complex. may be afraid to try. I can see the winning team of last year having to look to their laurels lest they be wrested from them by the C.Y.L.C. • Fashions are ever changng, but they are also ever-recurring. It may interest those young ladies who are taking to a new pale-pink rouge to learn that many years ago the very same shade was used by the titled ladies of the day, and it was known as • the Dresden-china tint. London designers of dress are making a big bid to capture the market, so long in the hands of Paris, and they seem to be meeting with a very fair measure of success. They are endeavouring to impress on their customers that garments, however fashionable. which attract too much attention, are not likely to become generally popular. Changes should come slowly if they are to last. At the moment dresses are being built on slim lines. Empire evening dresses appear to be moulded to' the figure, and in some cases pleats are stitched to below the hip-line and then allowed to be free in order to give increasing fulness to the base of the skirt. Greens of all shades are being vaorn. and sometimes they are trimmed with an unusual shade of blue or pink, the same colours appearing in the hat and in the dainty hand-bag. Dull crepes. matt-surfaced velvets, tweeds, wool laces, etc.—all are fashionable dresses for street wear—are not getting any longer, and there is a tendency to shorten evening dresses. Some of the suits have detachable collar and cuff sets, and one set seen lately was made of a lovely shade of silk straw—quite a new idea. The hat was of the same straw, but had wool knitted into it. In fact, wool is seen everywhere just now, and knitting needles and crochet hooks are being used as they have not been used for years. Scarves are worn as much as ever, and are likely to remain popular th-ough the winter, as they give that little extra protection to the throat and chest that is so necessary on cold days.

WEDDINGS.
A NTO1NE—STAINTHOR PE. A very pretty wedding, . and one which created great local interest, was celebrated on April 23rd., at St. Mary's Church, Cottesloe. The contracting parties were Phyllis, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. 0. Stainthorpe, "Warrack," Cottesloe, and Marcel, second eldest son of Monsieur Antoine (Consul for Belgium) and Madame Antoine, of "Cernay," Cottesloe. The Rev. Father O'Neill performed the ceremony. The bride entered the crowded church on the arm of her father, whilst the organist played "Here Comes the Bride." She was elegantly attired in a rich white satin gown. cut on classical lines, and falling in flares to the ankles, and having full-length sleeves. The bridal veil, which also forined the train, was of richly embroidered silk Brussels net, and held in place with a band of orange-blossom buds. She carried a sheaf of Easter lilies and tuberroses, with streamers of white satin ribbon, beautifully painted in dainty designs of W.A. wild flowers and bluebirds—the French emblem also being introduced—by the Sisters of the Presentation Convent, Cottesloe Beach, where the bride received her education. She was attended by the Misses Emmie and Lyla Briggs and Audrey Stainthorpe (sister). All were gowned alike, in full length dresses of eau-de-nil green georgette, with godets of frills and tight-fitting bodices. Large. pink summer-felt hats, with velvet bows: pink satin shoes, silk mittens, and large pink glace muffs with posies completed delightful toilettes. The bridegroom was supported by Messrs. P. McAuliffe (best man) and J. Antoine and W. Stainthorpe (groomsmen). Mr. F. Briggs pleasingly rendered "Ave Maria" during the signing of the register. his sister, Miss A. Briggs, presiding at the organ, and she also played the "Wedding March," as the newlywedded couple passed down the aisle of the church. Mrs. W. 0. Stainthorpe, wearing a becoming black georgette frock, adorned with briar stitching, relieved with white and a black and white straw hat, and carrying an Earls- Victorian bouquet of cloth of gold roses, received her guests in the Star of the Sea Hall. She was assisted by Madame Antoine, smartly attired in a model frock of black georgette, daintily hand. embroidered its self-colouring, with smart felt hat en suite, and carried a bouquet of red roses. During the wedding breakfast, at which there were upwards of 100 guests, the Rev. Father O'Neill presided, and the usual toasts w ere honoured to musical accompaniment, supplied by Fred Nice's Orchestra, who subsequently played for the dance, during which Mrs. F. Bailey and Mr. F. Briggs rendered vocal items. Replying to the toast of "The Chairman." the Rev. Father O'Neill spoke in most eulogistic terms of the Stain', thorpe family, whom he had known for the past 30 years, and he also testified to the good qualities of the Antoine family, who are later corners to the parish. The young couple left by motor car for a honeymoon tour of the South-West, the bride travelling in a charming ensemble of hunter's green silk morocain, with a new season's straw hat to tone. Mr. and Mrs. Antoine were the recipients of numerous telegrams from absent friends, and many handsome presents were received. They intend to make their future home at Dalkeith.
FAHEV—B UTLE R. At the Namban Church, on Monday, April 11, Father Isidore, 0.S.B., the P.P. of Moora, united in the holy bonds of Matrimony, Miss Germaine Butler, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. Butler, of Namban, to Edward D. Fahey, only son of Mrs. C. and the late J. J. Fahey, of Palmyra. There were present a goodly number of relatives and friends of the bride and bridegroom. The bride, who was given away by her father, wore a dainty frock of cream georgette. and carried a sheaf of white and pale pink roses. Miss Molly Butler, sister of the bride, who ably assisted her in the capacity of bridesmaid, wore a very pretty anklelength gown of green and pink floral georgette. Mr. Tom Whitely performed the duties of best man. The reception took place at the home of the bride's parents, where Mr. and Mrs. Butler entertained the guests, who did justice to a sumptuous breakfast. The usual toasts were musically honoured, under the chairmanship of Father Isidore. Mr. and Mrs. Fahey were the recipients of mans' valuable and useful presents, and were inundated by telegrams from their numerous friends domiciled in various parts of Australasia, each in turn cordially wishing them every happiness, blessing, and prosperity in their new state. The happy couple were given an enthusiastic send-off by the guests, as they left by car for their honeymoon. The bride wore a handsime ensemble of brown and white morocain, with hat en suite.

Stepping Stones in Irish History ( Continued from Page 3.) His grandsire, Hundred Battles, sleeps Serene in Brugh, and all around, Dead kings, in stone sepulchral keeps, Protect the sacred burial ground. What though a dying man shall rave, Of changes o'er the eastern sea, In Brugh of Boyne shall be his grave, And not in noteless Ross na Ree." Then northward forth they bore the bier, And down from Sleithac's side they drew, With horsemen and with charioteer, To cross the fords of Boyne to Brugh. While crossing the river, the Boyne bears away the bier, and carries it down the stream to Ross na Ree, thus fulfilling the King's last wish. "And now they slide and now they swim, And now amid the blackening squall, Grey locks afloat with clutchings grim, They plunge around the floating pall. "While as a youth with practised spear Through jostling crowds bears off the ring. Boyne from their shoulders caught the bier. And proudly bore away the King. The river sweeps the coffin away, and next day it is found far down the river, on the bank beside Ross na Rae. "At morning on the grassy marge Of Ross na Ree the corpse was found: And shepherds at their early charge Entombed it in the peaceful ground. "And life and time rejoicing run, From age to age their wonted way, But still he waits the risen sun. For still 'fz-: rmi,v dawning day." The Death of King Dathy. About the third successor of Cormac was the celebrated Niall of the Nine Hostages-,--so-called because of the number of distinguished hostages which he compelled his enemies to deliver up to him. Being assisted by the Saxons in his wars in Britain. he was induced by them to uncfertake an expedition into Gaul. Among the captives carried off by Niall's soldiers in their ravages was a youth named Bucath, then in his -6th. year, who was destined to ,he Ireland's future apostle —Saint Patrick. Niall was succeeded by his nephew Dathy. Dathy passed into Scotland, and forced it to pay tribute. He then passed into Britain and France, where he also received hostages. In the midst of his glory he was killed bv a flash of lightning at the foot of the Alps. He was succeeded by King Leary, in whose reign St. Patrick returned to Ireland as an Apostle. As the power of Imperial Rome began to rule, and the outlying legions were being drawn every year nearer and nearer to the city of Rome itself —the Irish Kings of the period followed in the wake of the retreating R omans. The Continental records of the time give a good insight into the part they played on the European stage in that day. Niall of the Nine Hostages was killed in Gaul, while leading his army in one of his campaigns there. It was while marching at the head of his legions that his nephew. King Dathy, was killed by lightning at the foot of the Alps. Thomas Davis describes it thus:
UP on the glaciers' snow. Down on the vales below, Monarch and clansmen go. Bright in the morning. Never their march they slack.

Dr. Austin O'Malley, distinguished Catholic writer of a half-dozen books on widely different subjects, medical and ocular doctor, university professor, noted linguist, Latinist, authority on Dante, and champion a few years ago of the anti-toxin treatment for diphtheria, died at Philadelphia last month, at the age of 73. Dr. O'Malley, a de\telt Eatholic, throughout his distinguished career, exceled in numerous „fields and in the course of his life had become n expert in many branches of knowledge, scientific and artistic. The late Cardinal Farley described Dr. O'Malley as "one of the best Latinists, perhaps the best of our time," and Marion Crawford, famous novelist, regarded him as "the best educated man I know in America."
Archbishop Redwood, who is on his way to the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin. spent his 94th. birthday at sea on the 8th. eh. He will stay in Rome and France before going to Ireland. Speaking to a press interviewer before his departure on present-day conditions, he said: "There is a call for big men, and I don't see them. Mussolini, yes! He has put Italy into a better position than ever it has been, and 'low he has met the Pope on friendly terms ,there is much to hope for. One thing, he has raised the standard of the schools, the industries, and given the country a firmer political, moral, and industrial backbone. In my opinion," continued his Grace, "there can be no great improvement in the world until the principles of Christianity founded on truth, justice. and charity are more firmly established and practised. It has been the ,_utting out of religon from education which has been a root cause of the world upset. It produces men without a religious or spiritual background. That is why the stature of the leaders of nations has decreased—even in this country, but I must not say such things, must I? It is the bankers and the usurers who are causing such a lot of trouble in the w orld. Everyone is reaching out for money, and more money—for what? Just to enjoy a few hectic pleasures. They must come back to the faith before there will be any marked improvement."

GROUP OF EX-PUPILS AND FRIENDS TAKEN AT LESMURDIE. The West Perth Past Pupils' Association held a very successful outing at Lesmurdie on Sunday, April 24th. The day was ideal for the trip, and the members expressed their pleasure at the result of this, their first, annual celebration. Vocal and instrumental items were rendered by some of the visitors, after which a pleasant hour was spent in the grounds, where members renewed acquaintance, and revived happy memories of their school days. Others engaged in games, or enjoyed the scenery of the Hills. Afternoon tea was then set, and the members expressed their appreciation of the kind hospitality of the Sisters.

The day was fittingly brought to a conclusion with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The whole assemblage joined in the singing, and in the hymns afterwards. with a vigour and fervour that was very edifying. It was six o'clock before the last cars left the grounds. e veryone bearing away very happy memories. and resolving to renew this pleasant day's outing as soon as the opportunity presents itself next year.

The ceremony took place at the FreerreHon Lodge. which adjoins the Jewish S ynagogue. "El Liberal," which represents Government opinion, ends up its report in terms which leave no doubt as to the character of the Occur:-Lnce: "He (Senor Azana) now has one :nore title. The revolution, supporters of which are steeped in the oil of liberty and of love, will never perish on the rocks of the petty passions of the Crusades." So, at the root of the Spanish revolution is the Orient. • • • A t the Carmelite Convent, Dolgelly, Wales Miss Newcombe. for many years an Anglican missionary in China, and who was received into a Church a few years ago, was professed a Carmelite nun. A striking address on the religious life was given by Father McGrath, MA., of St. Mary's College, Aberystwyth. Catholic and Protestant friends of the convert sent floral ,rifts for the decoration of the altar.
Father John O'Connor, of St. Nth. bert's, Bradford, the original of G. K. elhesterton's "Father Brown." was the guest at the Yorkshire Luncheon Group recently. In his walks with Mr. Chesterton across the Moors, he related a number of his experiences, and it was from these conversations that the Father Brown series was first formed. Several were published before he re,..egnised himself. • Belgium is commemorating the great Cardinal Mercier, whose great patriotism during the war caused him to be placed under arrest during the German occupation of Belgium ,by the issue of a special Se t of postage stamps. Each of which will be sold at a premium above the face value in aid of the Cardinal Mercier Dedication Fund. The religious scepticism which characterised the intellectual leaders of France 50 years ago, has disappeared, and to-day there is a definite swing to religion, declared Rear Admiral Rene Dufour de la Thuillerie, of France, on his arrival at Montreal, to promote the work of the Oeuvre d'Orient, for the propagation of the Faith amongst the peoples of the East. • • • Teresa Neumann. the stigmatised girl of Konnersreath. has been visited by an official Papal investigator, the Very Rev.

Then special services were rendered by Mr. M. J. Doyle, Mr. J. J. O'Heney, and Mr. C. Barry, in transport of supplies, etc., in addition to. individual deliveries from all cars. The kindness of Mr. and Mrs. O'Reilly on the Course. in a ready co-operation with the committee and services so generously rendered in preparations made, and warm welcome extended to everybody, made the task in the commissariat an easy one. To those warm-hearted ladies, promptly applying themselves to the serving of refreshments and afternoon tea, and all the work it involves, the committee is grateful. This ready service of all concerned was the principle feature contributing to the huge success of the outing, and indicative of the general desire to make the day a happy one for the children. Last, but not least, is the gratitude to Mr. A. Clydesdale. in making the grounds available, and in the proceedings a happy note was struck when Mr. Clydesdale. who happened to be visiting the grounds. was prevailed upon to say a few words to the children when they were assembled at the tea tables. The children responded lustily to the call for three cheers, and the rafters rang with their appreciation of the goodwill manifested. Mr. Clydesdale told the assemblage that any little service rendered by him was more than rewarded by the picture of the happy faces before him.

The morning papers confirmed the wirelesa news, and we again felt as if we were sitting on the edge of a volcano. In the native bazaar the police fired on a threatening mob and one man was killed. The papers were editions of unrest, announcing in detail the clashes with the police all over the country, the trials of political prisoners, the arrest of "dictators." the doings of "Congress," and the meetings of protest against the new ordinances of the Government of India.

Passing by a native shop I was attracted by something to wear, so here was an opportunity of making a ( on tact with a son of the "Good morning"—"Good mornsoil. ing sir," said a voice that wore a red fez. very baggy "dhots," a black coat buttoned to the neck, a scowling look framed by a scrubby beard, and a red stain on the iips indicated that here was a true son, chewing the native form of Wrigleys. The business of bargaining aver, we sat down. had a cigarette, aid gradually came to politics. I listened to his impassioned tale of India's woes We walked towards the crowded baaaar, while he poured what must have been stored away for years awaiting a listener. Slowly we moved against a surging crowd that filled the narrow streets. Walking with the current of traffic we came to the spot where the man was shot the evening before. The natives were already making pilgrimages there. laving flowers, and thus putting the martyr's crown on the dead man. I felt rather nervous and must have betrayed nir feelings by my looks. "Don't be afraid,' said he of the fez. "no one will touch you" Swarming like bees were the sons of India, talking better with their hands and eyes than with their words. Looking up and down the streets. I noticed that nearly all the native shops were closed. barred and padlocked. The dead man was honoured. business was suspended for the day. My friend of the red fez pointed to the white caps worn by so many. "Those are Gandhi . caps." he informed me. and I replied by looking at his red fez. "Oh." he explained. "I work in the European quarter. and my customers must be considered!" The ' Gandhi cap— a white cap like a beret— was worn ae an open profession of faith. 1 As we edged our way against tile waves of caps that washed up and (4, wn those narrow strets. a police van 'IPPeared and from within there came: "Boycott English goods."

THE RECORD. Growing Pains. At night time the bazaar becomes a dormitory; men, women and children roll themselves into a rug and sleep on the streets. To sleep at will is the greatest asset that India possesses—be it on a mattress of cobble-stones or to the accompaniment of a coolie din on the wharf, the sons of India can curl up and sleep. He of the fez dwelt long on the glaring contrasts that I had seen under his guidance. The palaces of Malabar Hill and the thousands of homeless squatting on the pavements and huddled together in the streets of the native bazaars—that is the economic picture of Indian- unrest. And the political is founded on religion, on the emotions that caste preserves. Deeper and more powerful than human reason are the convictions and passions kept alive by a religion of fear and superstition. Caste, founded on religion, is too deep to be uprooted, and it is caste that will keep India disunited, and. consequently, British Were Britain to leave India to-morrow, the war of caste would make of India the cockpit of the East. the happy hunting-ground for modern brigandage. Politically India is now suffering its growing-pains. That a country so old in its civilisation, and so definite in its culture, should now be enduring its nursery humiliations ,is strange, and yet not so strange when we remember its story. Young India has awakened, and is stretching its young limbs with much creaking and cracking of joints. (Concluded.)

Christian Marriage
Looking back on history, we see how nations have grown great by wisdom and valour and endurance, and then given _way to luxury, vice, and unbelief, and thus invited their more Spartan neighbours to come in and take them and all that they had. It happened so, with Greece and Rome, and it looks as if it must happen in a similar way with some European countries, who advocate practices regarding marriage and parenthood, such as are essenDivorce and birth tially opposed to the well being of Society. control have been the cause of the loss of population in France for Because Signor Mussolini believes in the past hundred years. Christian principles, and believes that numbers are strength, Italy has now caught up France with her forty millions. England is also on the downward track. She has been steadily lowering the birth-rate since 1850. This year she creates a record in that respect—with barely fourteen births per thousand. The root of the evil, as with all others, is found in a nation's departure from religion and Christian ethics. In England it was the Reformation. In France it was the Revolution. Both counDivorce tends to the destruction of a tries legalised divorce. essential to the well-being of the State. is life, which healthy, family Since mere selfishness is the motive of divorce, countries which A allow divorce, simultaneously begin to control the birth-rate. nation, a destroy later, or sooner declining birth-rate will naturally, or at least render it decadent. Such is the temporal evil attending such abominable practices. Yet the Anglican Bishop of Birmingham. and indeed most Anglican leaders, recommend or condone them. The Catholic Church alone upholds the Sadraments, which the Reformation rejected. That is why She alone upholds the sanctity of marriage and gives the world logical teaching. Pope Pius XI. has only recently reaffirmed that teaching. For Catholics marriage is one of the seven Sacraments. It a is divine institution, carrying with it divine grace. The object of the Sacrament is to add a divine steadfastness to what might become fickle. It is implied in the words of the ceremony: "For better, for worse, till death do us part." It has besides another object. It gives help to bear the responsibility of parenthood. It is this latent responsibility which makes married life lawful. It results in sheer selfishness. That is what marriage tends to become, once the religious aspect is excluded, and that is what it has come to, in many churches outside the Fold. The only form of birth-control which the Catholic Church recognises, is that which is based on self-control, whenever there is a grave reason for such. Catholic teaching is most reasonable and logical. By contrast the opposite teaching is most illogical. A civilisation that boasts of its chivalry towards woman kind, itself casts the first stone. Divorce begins and ends in grave uncharitableness, not to speak of the grave injustice to one of the parties, and to the children, if any. Again, moderns. are continually harping on the sacredness of human life. It is the only crime with capital punishment. Yet they condone the practice of child murder. The medical profession is often guilty in this matter—the profession that was originally intended to save life, not to destroy it. It is as great a crime to prevent the birth of a child as to destroy it afterwards. It has been urged that the difficulties in the way of bringing up children in suitable surroundings. and under proper conditions, are an excuse for avoiding parenthood. Mr. Chesterton compares this attitude to that of the mother of seven children who has but four hats for them. The problem is solved by murdering three of them. and she thanks God that now there are sufficient hats fyr Sacred Scripture tells us that life is more than the raiment, and millions of Catholics accept that teaching—Bishop Barnes and his birth-control theories notwithstanding. If ever Macaulav's prophecy comes true, and a New Zealander should view the ruins of St. Paul's from London Bridge. its downfall will in large measure be due to its present Dean, and those who like him preach principles that are so diametrically opposed to Christianity And by all the laws that govern the survival of the fittest, that survivor should prove himself to be a practical Catholic.

Last week (says the "Catholic Press," of April 28), the Melbourne -Argus" severely reprimanded Archbishop Mannix for presuming to criticise "the regular sources of news." His Grace had warned a large gathering against giving credence to the absurd cables on Irish affairs. The warning works both ways. This is how the British press interpreted a Reuter message concerning a certain event which happened in Sydney on March 19: "Just prior to Mr. Lang severing the ribbon, a mounted police officer rushed forward and severed the ribbon with his sword. He was immediately dragged from his horse by fellow-police We might add that Reuter officers." is by no means the least reliable of "the regular sources of overseas news."
A Sensational Confession
becomes almost an apologist of the mediaeval structure of society, and of the role of the Church, by showing these profound considerations at the bottom of the action of churchmen in regard to Joan. This it seems to me should be of interest to Catholics, coming from one of the most prominent of Protestants. The confession, of course, is well disguised—amazingla; so. For while seeing now in individualism, as expressed in the growing heresies of the fifteenth century Hussism. Lollardism. nationalism.. etc., the instrument of the future martyrdom of man, he actually says that that martyrdom, these wars, that suicide, is preferable to authority! In his view individual inspiration is infallible, and whatever its consequences. a sacred duty to God and to self! This is the meaning, in his rei-sion, of the martyrdom and sainthood of Joan. For the individual it is a sacred duty to God and to truth to live out his r evelation, however disastrous the consequences for humanity! Liberalism, instead of being identified as formerly with humanitarianism, becomes identified with martyrdom and suffering. However Catholics may object to this monopolisation on the part of liberalism of sanctified suffering. they cannot but regard this system of ideas, as vealed in the play, "Saint Joan," as truly significant.—M.

QUEENSLAND. River of Catholic Truth. In the course of his eloquent occasional sermon at the installation of the Right Rev. Dr. Hayes, Bishop of Rockhampton, Father Lockington, S.J., referring to the mission of the Catholic Church in the world, said:— "The river of Catholic truth runs within well-defined limits, within which is the crystal clear stream flowing full and free and pure from its Apostolic source. The Catholic through his Bishop knows exactly where its banks lie and there is no excuse for him when he goes floundering into the mud and murkiness of so-called broadmindedness beyond. Of another class, that of the host of careless worldly Catholics, one scarce knows how to speak. Evils The abound on every side to-day. Church is the most powerful force for their correction. Her Bishops in every age proclaim and prove this to men. Yet look at the hosts of Catholics supinely silent, watching an unending succession of theorists and opportunists, blindly blundering and injuring manAnd these supine Catholics kind! possess in our Church the power to solve all problems and correct all abuses.

Ignorance is the main reason of their Often through this ignorcondition. ance these supine Catholics fear that the Church cannot grapple with the problems that are baffling leaders of men to-day." "Civilisation Has Reached the CrossRoads." Speaking in St. Stephen's Cathedral on Anzac Day, Father A. Goodman, M.S.C.. who preached the sermon, in his review of the present condition of society, declared: "To-day, 13 years after the cessation of hostilities, there is no peace for an exhausted and distempered world. The grim monster. war, which had fixed its iron grasp upon more than half a world, to belch forth the fiery breath of its nostrils over three continents and across three oceans, has been partlv chained for the time being. but it has given birth to a materialistic philosophy, far more deadly in its onslaughts than enemy hoards, because it strikes at the foundations of Christian society, and at the inherent dig. nit- of human beings as children of the Creator and the redeemed of the Divine Redeemer. Civilisation has reached the cross-roads, even the most optimistic observer can see nothing ahead but disaster if this reign of paganism continues. The present eiccupant of the See of Peter points out the obvious fact that the World War has brought Europe to the brink of ,destruction. and men are turning in all directions for a saving sign that would point the way out of the impending collapse. From the watch-tower of truth. his Holiness analysed tbe position accurately when he stated in his Encyclical `Ubi Arcano Dei.'. 'that in the face of our much praised progress we behold with sorrow society lapsing slowly but surely into a state of barbarism.'" • St. Patrick's Cathedral, Toowoomba. There was an impressive gathering of clergy and laity when Bishop Byrne laid the foundation stone for the extensions to St. Patrick's Cathedral, T osowoomba, prior to leaving his See for the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin next month. St. Patrick's has for half a century met the requirements of an ever-increasing congregation. but at present it is altogether unable to satisfy the demand for accommodation, It is intended, when the building has been completed, that St. Patrick's will he equal to any outside the capital cities. When complete the Cathedral will be cruciform in shape, 200 feet long by 100 feet wide The additions will increase the seating accommodation to almost 2,000. Up to the day of the ceremony, the Church was indebted up to 0.147. hut the collection taken up at the close of the Bishop's address amounted to £3,880. The building fund is therefore in credit to the extent of some hundreds of pounds. Anzac Luncheon. "T think this has been the best reunion yet." were the parting words of
the chairman (Rev. Father E. S. Barry) at the close of the annual Anzac Day luncheon to returned nurses, soldiers, and sailors, which was held in the grounds of St. Stephen's Cathedral after High Mass. The marquee was crowded to the walls, and a high spirit of fellowship and happiness, laughter, and goodwill, placed the hall mark of success upon the gathering. About 550 persons were present. Bishop Hayes in Brisbane. While passing through Brisbane on his way to Rockhampton, to be installed as Bishop of the diocese, Dr. Hayes was, at a luncheon at Lennon's, tendered a welcome to Queensland by the Brisbane clergy. The attendance was large, and included several priests from outside the metropolitan area. The gathering included Archbishop Duhig and Bishop Byrne (Toowoomba His Grace the Archbishop gave a very cordial welcome to Dr. Hayes. "The elevation of Dr. Hayes was certainly a great gain to the Church in Australia, hut particularly to the Church in Queensland. As his Archbishop, he was delighted to welcome Dr. Hayes as suffragan, and he was sure Bishop Byrne was equally delighted to welcome him as a brother Bishop." NEW SOUTH WALES. Mr. W. J. Coogan, L.C.

Mr. Len Galvin was nominated for full benefit membership. The President extended a very hearty welcome to Sister Margaret Barron, of St. Munchin's Branch, Collie, and one of its most constant members, who will be probably in the metropolitan area for some time to come. Members of St. Mary's Branch were delighted to have her with them, and hoped that, whenever she felt inclined, she would avail herself of an open invitation to be present at the branch functions. The social committee is now functioning to arrange for winter entertainments at the meetings, and no doubt a syllabus for the next three months will be submitted for the members' approval.

T. J. Hynes, members wished him a pleasant and successful trip and a safe return.

St. Mary's, Leederville Miss Doris Melville's Concert. A large attendance assembled in St. Mary's Hall on Friday, May 6th., for Miss Melville's concert, and judging by the frequent and loud applause, the Concert was highly appreciated. This concert does 'not follow the usual beaten track of concerts, but is in a class of its own. Some of the items were of rare and exceptional merit. At the interval, Rev. Dr. Sullivan, in a few well chosen words, expressed the appreciation of the audience and the thanks of the parish, especially of Mrs. Cripps, in aid of whose stall the concert was given. Rev. Dr. Collins. We were all delighted to see once again, after a long absence, and to welcome back for a few days to his old parish, Rev. Dr. Collins, who, notwithstanding his trertuous time in his new parish of Toodyay, is looking in the pink of condition. It was said of old. "If a man does not work, neither shall he eat." The good Father has no objection to the people of Toodyay eating, but he has taken good care that they are given enough of work to do Already he has in full swing a Prize Packet, a series of euchre parties, dances, concerts, and a Queen Carnival, which embraces his whole farflung parish. This is only the start. Father. however, has gone further afield than Toodyass and some people are recalling the words. "If an enemy hath done this, verily I could have borne with it, but thou, my friend." Father has not only taken some of the Leederville cash, hut actually taken some of our most distinguished parishioners.

An' a good God must have made it— leastways, that it what I say, When a hand is on my shoulder in a friendly sort o' way. —James Whitcomb Riley.
POLITENESS. The instinct or sell-control, of gentleness, of consideration and forethought and quick sympathy which go to make up what we call good breeding, the absence of noise and hurry, the thousand-and-one little ways by which we can please people, or avoid displeasing them, are all taught us by our own hearts. Good manners are the fine owers of civilisation. And everybody can have them. Fine manners are a stronger bond than a beautiful face. It seems very hard for people to realise that tact and pleasant manners are even more necessary in our dealings with those with whom we come in daily contact than with the world outside, the world whose approval cannot possibly mean so much as that of our nearest and dearest. A sage commentator is quoted as caving: "Ptsliteness is kind feeling set to music." goo
WORDS OF WISDOM. Be thou prepared to fight if thou desirest to gain the victory. God, and Ged alone, knows and wills, and can give us more than we know how to .lesire. God refuses neither His holy love nor Himself to anyone who seeks Him with all his strength. If the ways ef God seem strange to von, remember that the ways of men are stranger still. Our Lord makes use of saints to gain other souls, as He did of St. Dominic, whose words, works, and sanctity wrested many from the clutches of the

EFFORT. To no one is life absolutely favourable. There are many vicissitudes in life. Faults are everywhere, and errors are always taking place. The perfect person has not yet been born. Great kings, enaperois, warriors and statesmen have made mistakes and are still making them. It is folly, therefore, to expect that we are to get through without effort. If in our projects we do not succeed, we may be defeated, but we are not conquered; we still have our ambition. Little is gained by resting on our oars. There is danger of drifting, and drifting means striking the rocks of discouragement and defeat. To stand still for long is to stagnate. To so backwards is always dangerous. It is silly to get an idea that we do not matter, that we do not count, for we all have a place to fill. We only know our place and power as we get the sense of our relationship and responsibility to all the other wheels of the great machine called "Life." FOR THOSE ANXIOUS ABOUT HEALTH. The Seneca, N.Y. "Daily Times" tells of a man who took every precaution against premature death: He brushed his teeth twice every lay. The doctor examined him twice a - -ear. He slept with the windows open at :vast eight hours every night. He always wore rubbers when it r ained. He stuck to a diet with plenty of fresh vegetables. He relinquished his tonsils and traded in several worn-out glands. He never smoked, drank, or lost his t emper. He did his daily dozen daily. besides • aking plenty of outdoor exercise. He was all set to live to be 100. The funeral will be next Wednesday. He is survived by 18 specialists. four health institutions, six gymnasiums, and numerous manufacturers of health goods and antiseptics. He forgot that there might be a train at a level crossing.
merit His friendship? The chief condition is never to forget Him, but to seek Him with the firm resolve to believe, obey, and love Him. These are the means of becoming His frieods in this world. In these days, plenty of good people disdain the use of payer, and calmly approach death trusting to their natural virtues. They flatter themselves that they will be received there with every kind of honour and regard, on account of their nagyits. Certainly, good actions are worthy of reward, and God, Who is Justice itself, will not abandon anyone without fully repaying all that is due. But no matter if they had done countless good works, these would not loe sufficient to merit His friendship unless done for God's sake.—Lurovic de Besse, 0.S.F.C. THE MAN OF PRAYER. The true devout man is a man of prayer, whose sole delight is to be with God, and to speak with Him, and who scarcely ever loses his sense of the presence of God. Not that he is always thinking of God—for that would be impossible here below —but because he is always united to God in his heart, and is guided in everything by His Spirit. To pray, he has no need of a book, or of a method, or of great efforts of the head or even of the will. He has only to retire quietly into himse lf; there he finds God, there he finds peace , sometimes full of joy, sometimes peace in spite of dryness—but alwaya s a deep and real peace. He prefer s the prayer in which he gives much to and in which he suffers: the prayeGod, r in which self-love is undermined gradually. until it can find nothing to Upon; in short, a simple praye feed r, nuded of all images or of perce defeelings, and of all those things ptible which the soul can remark or experience in other kinds of prayer.
