The Seriousness of Dying Intestate The laws of intestacy are arbitrary, and the rules of distribution inflexible. Some of your relatives who are comfortably circumstanced are likely to obtain a share in your estate at the expense of others whom you might wish to benefit. Just one of the unsatisfactory features of dying without leaving a will. Have your Will drawn up now while sound in mind and body, and after consultation with us. It can be altered from time to time to suit charigui conditions. Our experience and assistance are at your disposal.

The Merchant of Venice"

Portia is, perhaps, the most perfectly developed feminine character depicted by Shakespeare. Though not a wit less womanly, she is stronger and more full of character than Ophelia; she is more restrained and less pasWe are particusionate than Juliet. larly struck with (a) her humour, and (b) her intellect; it is, at any rate, those qualities of mind that are brought into prominence at once. (a) Her Sprightly Humour. (i, In Act L, Sc. U., where she converses with Nerissa, this keynote of her nature is struck, which is to be kept prominent throughout the play. The "fair Portia," this rich heiress, has, we feel, a pretty wit, and a tongue that, in a less womanly character, might be humorous a little too sharp. The touches with which she hits off her various suitors, as they are "overnarned" to her, display not merely the genuine wit, but a shrewd intellect. The criticisms are not merely the ordinary light-hearted sallies of a much-admired beauty: she can speak seriously when she chooses, as is shown by the natural way in which she estimates Bassanio— ("I remember him well: and I remember him worthy of thy praise."). In her decision to abide by her father's will, in the choosing of the suitors, Portia again exhibits not only obedience and honesty of purpose, but that particular acumen which distinguishes her throughout; she seems to feel that there is wisdom in this "trial by casket," albeit she hardly is of a nature to need a warning not to trust to appearamts. (ii.) So. again, at the actual choize of the suitors, Nforocco and Arragon, Portia displays the same sharp humour and graceful ease of manner. She has seen through all these wooers for herself. yet there is nothing in her manner to offend them It is only when Morocco has made his exit and paid his adieux, that she turns to Nerissa, and sums him up: Portia: ''A gentle riddance. Draw the curtains, go. Let all of hi, complexion choose me so" (II., vii., fin.). Arragon: "Who chc,oseth me shall have as much as he deserves. Did I deserve no more than a fool's head? Is that my prize? Are my deserts no better?" Portia: "To offend, and judge, are distinct offices And of opposed natures." And, as he with his train, make his e xit:— "Thus hath the candle singed the moth. ")! these deliberate fools, when they do choose, They have the wisdom of their wit to lose." (iii.) The whole idea of appearing in the garb of a Doctor of Law is due to this half-humorous, half-serious, spirit of initiation which Portia possesses. Prompt and energetic to accomplish what she feels to he her duty, she treats it lightly in the manner of a merry trick that she is playing for her Own amusement. cf. (III., iv., 62 seq.): "I'll hold thee any wager. When we are both accoutred like Young men, Iii prove the prettier fellow of the two, And wear my dagger with the braver grace; And speak between the change of mail and boy With a red voice; and turn two mine.' ing steps Into a manly stride, and speak of frays Like a fine bragging Youth, and tell

quaint lies,

How honourable ladies sought my love, Which I denying, they fell sick and died; I could not do withal: then I'll repent, A nd wish. for all that, that I had not kill'd them; A nd twenty of these fairy lies I'll tell, at men shall swear I have discontinued school Above a twelvemonth; I have within my mind A thousand raw tricks of these bragging Jacks Which I will practise." Then. as is her wont, she turns to the pracfical m Atter in hand, and goes on: "But come, I'll tell thee all my whole device

When I am in my coach, which stays for us At the park gate; and therefore haste away, For we must measure twenty miles to-day." (iv.) In the famous Trial Scene, one cannot but notice Portia's evident appreciation of the truly dramatic Nemesis which falls on the Jew's head. Her mind is such that, though shs has given Shylock every loophole of escape she can, in advising mercy, now that he clamours so insistently for justice, she must almost enjoy the turning of the tables. Her words show us this: Portia: "Soft! The Jew shall have all justice: soft! no haste! He shall have nothing but the penalty." (IV., i., 319-321.) ( v.) As another instance of Portia's readiness of wit, may be quoted her - v 7- 1s, meaning more than they appear to mean, to Bassanio, on his protesting that he would sacrifice his "life, his wife, and all the world, to save his friend:' Portia: "Your wife would give you little thanks for that, If she were by, to hear you make the offer." (vi.) Finally, this same love of the comic and incongruous is what gives rise to the "Ring Episode," with which the play finishes. It is needless to go through the countless instances of Shakespeare's felicitous use of "dramatic irony" in this last scene: or of Portia's quick repartee and play of words, as when she answers Bassanio. Bassanio: "Portia, forgive me , this enforced wrong; And in the hearing of these many friends. I swear to thee, even by thine own fair eyes, Wherein I see myself." "Mark you but that! Portia: On both my eves he doubly sees himself: In each eye, one: swear by your double self, And ther's an end of credit." — (V.. i.. 234-239) With all her quickness of wit, it is noticeable that there are no caustic remarks addressed by her to anybody; she is a mimic, as has been shown, with a satiric touch in description. but to her interlocutor she never fails in courtesy. (b) Her Intellectual Ability. In the majority of women such mental power as Portia possesses would have led to a sort of self-assertion or pedantry, which would justly be characterised as uafeminine. The very idea of going to Venice to plead for her lover's friend betokens more than a woman's self-reliance, and the nerve and ability whioh she displays make it difficult for us to realise that this can be the "fair Portia" of the "gentle spirit" ii., 164). She herself wears all her learning lightly, and charmingly talks of herself as an "unlesson'd girl" (III., ii., 160), while the whole speech of self-surrender to Bassanio—himself far her inferior in mental gifts—breathes a maidenly tenderness and modesty which is all too rare in women of more than average attainments. Her Magnificence and Generosity. (i) While Antonio is the type of the generous open-handed merchant. to whom money is vet a matter of great importance. Portia represents that class of high-bred aristocracy, which has never needed to think about Hence there is a large granmoney. deur about her manner where money is concerned. Portia: "What sum owes he the Jew?" Bassanio: "For me, three thousand ducats." "What no more Portia: Pay him six thousand, and deface the bond; Double six thousand and then treble that, Before a friend of this description Shall lose a hair through Bassanio's fault. . . . You shall have gold To pa' the petty debt twenty times over." (III., ii., 293 seq.) Here speaks the grand lady, who is used to having so much money at her command that she has no need to

trouble herself about it, in comparison with the more important concerns of life—such as friendship, for example. (ii) Likewise, the almost regal min tesy with which she treats the Dukes of Morocco and Arragon, during the casket scene, is a thing that could not have been studied: such habit of command could only have been transmitted by generations of Venetian nobles. She seems one of those highly-favoured mortals who have been blessed in all their circumstances, in their wealth, their parentage, their position, and their temperament, to such an extent that they seem to exist merely to diffuse light and happiness around them. Her Maidenly Modesty. A s has been hinted already, Portia's great ability is carried off by an equally great modesty. She is quite devoid of all self-consciousness and affection. as witnessed by the freedom of her conversatiwi with her companion Nerissa (Act I.. Sc. 2). She accomplishes the difficult task of revealing to Bassanio her affection for him, without seeming to do so, by counselling him to stay a while before he chooses the casket.

core. She is no swan born in the duck-yard, but i-,: in complete harmony with her surroundings and with herself. . . . She is healthy, though she is delicate; she is gay, although she is mentally a head taller than any of those around her: and she is young, although she is wise. She is borne aloft by an unfailing serenity of nature, which lias never suffered any rude disturbanc . It manifests itself in her gaiety under circumstances of painful uncertainty, in her self-control in overwhelming joy, and in her promptitude of action in an unforeseen and threatening conjuncture. She has inexhaustible resources in her soul, a profusion of ideas and inspirations, as great a superabundance of wit as wealth. In contradistinction to her lover, she never makes a display of what is not her own to command. Hence her equilibrium and queenly repose."—George Brandes. "If Portia had been created as a mere instrument to bring about a dramatic catastrophe: If she had merely detected the flaw in Antonio's bond, and used it as a means to baffle the law, she might have been pronounced a clever woman. But what Portia does is forgotten in what she is. The rare and harmonious blending of energy, reflection, and feeling in her fine character make the epithet 'clever' sound like a discord as applied to her; and place her infinitely beyond the slight praise of Richardson and Schlegel neither of whom appear to have compreehnded her. . . . She is full of penetrative wisdom, and genuine tenderness, and lively wit; but as she has never known want or grief, fear or disappointment, her wisdom is without a touch of the sombre or the sad; her affections are all mixed up with faith and hope and joy, and her wit has not a particle of malevolence or causticity."—Mrs Jameson.

But. lest you should not understand me well— And yet a maiden bath no tongue. hut thought— I would detain you here some month or two, Before you venture for me." — (ITT., ii.. 4-10.1 and on his choosing aright. she delivers that exquisite speech (III.. ii.. 149 seq.). beginning: "You see me.

The superficially humorous person. though describel as "Waiting-maid to Portia." must be regarded as more in such as Gratiano in this play, cannot attune himself to seriousness even the nature of Portia's girl companion. when the circumstances call for it.

And in the process of the case, while friends and counsel are doing their utmost for him, there is little show of lght in Antonio, all he can say is, "Most heartily I do beseech the court To give the judgment." This melancholy. faint-heartedness, carelessness of life, call it what one will, certainly makes Antonio a pale and somewhat :ininteresting figure to us. It may be that, as has been suggested, we may trace in it an allusion to Shakespeare's own period of melancholy, when everything displeased: or again, it may be compared with the speculation and philosophising melancholy of Jaques in "As You Like It," or to that of the Duke in "Twelfth Night:" or more remotely to the reflective melancholy of Hamlet. His Popularity. noted that all—with the be It is to Shylock— of exception, naturally, speak most highly of this merchant. Gratiano calls him "The royal merchant, good Antonio" (Act. III., ii., 235). To Bassanio he is a "dear friend.' "The kindest man, The best condition'd and unwearied spirit In doing courtesies, and one in whom The ancient Roman honour more appears Than any that draws breath in Italy." ii.. 287-292). It is natural that Bassanio should speak thus, being so indebted to him, but Bassanio is not alone in his admiration. It is shared by Salanio (III., i., 12), the Duke (IV., i., 7), the gaoler (III 3): while the leading citizens of Venice intercede for him: . . . .

His Friendship With Bassanio Antonio. besides being a general favourite with the "magnificoes" of Venice, entertains a truly noble affection for Bassanio. Not only (a) does he assure his spendthrift friend "my purse, my person, my extremest means, lie all unlocked to your occasions," but (b) he goes to such lengths of self-sacrifices as to risk his life to assist him in endeavouring to marry the heiress at Belmont. With the utmost self-renunciation he is quite ready to die, promising only that Bassanio shall grieve not for him: "Commend me to your honourable wife; Tell her the process of Antonio's end; Say how I loved you; speak me fair in death, And when the tale is told, bid her be judge, Whether Bassanio had not once a —(IV., i., 272 seq.) love."

THE RECORD.

Geraldton Notes After a long spell of no Geraldton news in "The Record," people will be beginning to think that Geraldton has gone out of existence. The weather around this district has been most unseasonable of late. Several times during the past month rain has threatened, only to pass over and leave us still wondering if 1932 is going to be a drought year. The wheat export is continuing slowThere are two boats in port at ly. present, which make twenty-four for With the departure of the season. these vessels, the total number of bags shipped for the season should be somewhere in the vicinity of two million.

No mention of the Golden Age would be complete without a word about the Bangor f amous schools of Ireland. and Armagh were the great schools of the North, just as Clonard was ths school of Meath, Glendalough of Leinster, Lismore of Munster, and Clonmacnoise and Clonfert of Connaught. Kildare. Moville, Derry, Durrow and Kells are chosen from a number of others, because of some special interest or associations. • The School of Armagh. The School of Armagh seems to have been the oldest of the ancient schools of Ireland. It dates in all probability It from the time of St. Patrick. seems to have been primarily a great theological seminary. The number of English pupils attracted to this place was so great that in later times the city was divided into three divisions, one of which was known as the EngIn the annals of the lish quarter. Four Masters, frequent references are made from the sixth to the twelfth centuries of the learned scribes, professors of divinity, wise doctors, and rectors of the School of Armagh. And vet, during these very centuries the schools suffered terribly from the wars and from the Danes. It was plundered nine times, mostly by Danes, during the ninth and tenth centuries. It was finally plundered and destroyed in the end of the twelfth century, with the coming of the Normans. One of the oldest and beyond doubt the most valuable of the ancient books of Ireland was written by a Scribe of Armagh. It is the famous "Book of Armagh." It is at present in the Library oi" Trinity College, Dublin, and in its press nt form was transcribed about 807 A D. The Scribe mentions that it is a copy of an earlier book written about the year 650, and the Life of St. Patrick, which it contains, was said to have been copied from the autograph of St. Patrick himself. It contains also the only complete copy of the Seriptures of the New Testament, which has come down to us from the Celtic Church. The rest were all destroyed by the Danes. The official custodian of the book sold it about 1681. and it found its way eventually to the library of Trinity College. This custodian, strange to say, was one of the perjured witnesses who swore away the life of Blessed Oliver Plunkett. The School of Kildare. St. Brigid may be regarded as the f oundress of the monasteries and School of Kildare. It had two monasteries. one for men and one for women, and a Bishop was appointed to rule over the territory. She is the patroness and mother of all the Sisters of Ireland—the Mary of the Gael. Kildare is the only religious establishment in Ireland which preserved down to a recent period the double line of succession of Abbot—Bishops and of ekb-besses. The Lady Abbesses of Kildare enjoyed a kind of primacy over all the nuns. of Ireland. Kildare continued to flourish notwithstanding the ravages of the Danes. down to the total suppression of the monasteries in the time of Queen Elizabeth. The Round T ower—the tallest in Ireland now—is the only one of the ancient buildings left standing to mark the site of the f amous monastery and school. The present MSS. of the "Book of Leinster" is a copy of the original, which was c ompiled and preserved at Kildare. The School of Clonard. The School of Clonard was founded by St. Finnian about 520 He started as a hermit. but the fame of his life soon attracted large numbers, and he set up a monastery and school. It is said that he had no less than three thousand scholars under his instruction at one time. Some idea of its fame may he gathered from the fact that St. Cie ran, the founder of Clonmacnoise. and St. Brendan of Clonfest, and St. Columcille of Inoa. were Pupils of the school. St. Finnian himself is styled the Tutor of the Saints of Ireland. so great an influence did he and his school e xert on the early Irish Church. For m any centuries it retained its fame, till it was plundered many times by t he Danes, and last of all, about 1170, It was plundered and burned by the Norman invaders. No trace of the f amous monastery remains to-day--save a few small stone pillars. Only to scholars does its ancient glory remain to-day. The School of Clonfert. The School of Clonfert was founded by St. Brendan, the Navigator, about Mt He had previously been a pupil

and when he died there in the latter years of the seventh century, Tarenturn was once more a Christian city, and he is still venerated there as its Apostle and Patron Saint. The School of Bangor. Bangor and Armagh were the great schools of the North, just as 471onard was the School of Meath, Glendalough of Leinster, Lismore of Munster, and Clonmacnoise and Clonfert of Connaught. The .influence of Bangor was particularly felt in France, Switzerland and Italy—as. for instance, in its great missionaries, St. Columbanus, the founder of Luxeuil and Bobbio, and St. Gall, the missionary of Switzerland. It was founded by St. Comgail, about 560—on the southern shore of Belfast Lough. St. Bernard, in his life of St. Malachv, says that "this noble institution was inhabited by many thousands The monks of Bangor of monks." were men of invincible firmness, in denouncing vice, and in their adherence to the traditions of the holy founders of the Irish Church. This firmness is especially evident in the Paschal controversy, when they persisted in the local custom over a hundred years after the rest of the country. It was not so blameworthy in this case, seeing that their firmness sprang from no schismatic spirit, but from a conscientious adhesion to the ancient practice of St. Patrick. St. Columbanus was the great glory of the School of Bangor. A greater son than he never went to do the work of God in foreign lands. Some of his works are still extant, but countless works of his monks are still to be found, and are still literary treasures Of these the most celeto scholars. brated are the Bobbio Missal and the Both are still preBangor Hymnal. served in the Ambrosian Library at Milan. where the present Holy Father was one time in charge. and to which The he has not infrequently referred Missal was brought from Bangor in the sixth or seventh century. and is particularly valuable because it gives us so early a specimen of the liturgy The Bangor of the Irish Church Hymnal is also interesting, because it gives us a collection of ancient Latin hymns, also in common use in the early Church. The School of Bangor continued to send forth saints and scholars till it was destroyed by the Danes in the early part of the ninth century. It arose from its ashes. however, but it had to await the twelfth century to taste some of its former glory in the peeson of its Abbot. St. Malachy, who became Archbishop of Armagh. and a famous reformer of the Irish Church Eventually it met with the fate of the otl.er monasteries in the Anglo-N m-man invasions. The School of Glendalough. The School of Glendalough was the chief school of Leinster—and the novitiate of the clergy of the East of Ireland. It was founded by St. Kevin, about MO. St. Kevin is now better remembered by his cruel treatment of Kathleen, whom he is supposed to have thrown into the lake. There is not a particle of truth in the story. It waF the home of virtue and of learning down to the time faf the corning of the Danes. and even after their departure. down to the time of the Anglo-Normans. There are two outstanding names in connection with the place— St. Moling, of the sevnth, and St. Laurence O'Toole, of the twelfth century. St Moling was the founder of a monastery and also Bishop of Ferns. St. Laurence O'Toole was next to its founder the greatest glory of Glendalough. He was Abbot of Glendalough about 1153, and Archbishop of Dublin in 1161--then a city of the Danes. He did much to reform the city and diocese. He never forgot his old monastery, and he often returned there for Lenten solitude He lived in troublous times, and was a true pastor and patriot. He was the mediator between Roderick O'Connor. the last HighKing, and Henry II., by which Roderick gave up his right to the Lordship of Ireland. and retired to his hereditary Kingdom of Connaught. But his greatest influence was for peace, and he guided the destinies of the Irish Church as only a Saint could do. He was canonised in 1225. After his death the school and monastery fell into decay. With its round tower and ruined churches, it is still one of the most interesting links with the Golden Age of the Irish Church. This brief resume of some of the farnous schools, when taken in conjunction with their great missionaries, amply justifies the title of Island of Saints and Scholars—as applied to the Golden Age. St. Patrick sowed in Saul a seed which grew into a great tree like the mustard seed spoken of in the parable. It was the coming of the Danes and Nortnans that closed that glorious epoch. It is not too much to say that Ireland can never hope to see its like again.

If any one is sceptical of ths worth of even ond week's teaching at the hands of the Sisters, then let any Summer School be tested by experience, and the result will be a surprise. This year most of the children had the advantage of last year's training, and they showed it They had remembered their too. prayers, which shows that they must have kept up the daily recitation, and they had a fairly good recollection of what they had been taught last year in Christian doctrine.

Cold, piercing winds— sudden rain storms—wet feet—overheated rooms—draughts —all tend to bring on sudden attacks of Colds, 'Flu, Rheumatism, Sciatica and Lumbago, which may quickly become serious if not nipped in the bud. At the first sign or symptom of common Colds or Influenza, take 'ASPRO'

according to the directions on the leaflet in the packet. 'ASPRO' will prevent developments of simple attacks that may become serious it neglected. 'ASPRO' brings quick relief and removes the cause of the complaint, because, after ingestion in the system, it is a powerful germicide—a solvent of uric acid and is antiseptic--anti- pyretic—anti-periodic and anti-fermentative. Furthermore, 'ASPRO' does not harm the heart.

GROUP OF CHILDREN AT SECOND SUMMER SCHOOL. To make the work of instruction more effective, the children were divided into four classes—each in charge of a Sister, who was thus able to teach them according to their years and unexactly derstanding. There were thirty children in attendance, all that could reasonably be expected from the district, and great credit is due to the parents for their co-operation in taking in the children, in varying types of conveyances, at much inconvenience to themselves. One party arrived after two hours' road travel in a vehicle that looked very much like an old Mass Shandrydan, only its passengers on this occasioa were two Italian families, sons of the soil near Karragullen, What was far more unusual, and more consoling, was the influence the children had on these parents. Since the Summer School last year, these parents have travelled into Les murdie for confession and Holy Communion on two occasions. So that the school's influence extends beyond the little innocent children to their homes. And that is only what might be expected. In a few other cases, where the parents were careless, the idea of haying the children instructed seemed to appeal very much, and no obstacle in transport seemed to mar their momentary enthusiasm. Who knows hut that it may be but the beginning of a return to the Faith for these parents, too? A nyhow, the good results to be seen in the children themsedves must be sufficient justification and reward to the good teachers. It is hoped that each Sister in charge of a class will keep in touch by correspondence with her pupils each month, so that continued good results of the school may be expected. There will be the additional aclyantags of the children knowing their correspondents in this arrangement. Of this year's quota of thirty children, twenty were present last year (eight of last year's pupils have since left the district), and ten were new corners. All, of course, were sufficiently prepared for confession, and all but three received Holy Communion. Those three will be catered for The more advanced next year, D.V. children were allowed to Confession earlier in the week, and so had the advantage of a few extra 'Holy Communions towards the end. .while the first Communicants joined them on Sunday morning in a General Commu-

Brennan's New Silk House Opens Mr Jame, Brennan announces the os.,cning of his new Silk House on Monday next. The name of Brennan has be n for a very long while a househ ed word in this State, and many wil! be pleased to note the advent of Brennan's Silk House. Practically Brennan's Silk House will be conteened by a new firm, for associated with Mr. James Brennan will be Mr. Gerald Brennan and Mr. James •O'Conner. The new firm will carry silk lines chiefly. Already a large order of the latcrt fashion fabrics—Japanese and Continental goods—has been purchased, and the lowest values obtained for years. The purchasing public will, therefore, have an opportunity of buying the very latest materials at prices which have never yet prevailed. Mr. Beennan's forty years' experience in the drapery business has enabled him t e study the public taste and demand. and to know just what is required. Pat. ons will find it all that it professes t. he. a house where quality and value stand out in amazing directness.

H.A.C.B. Society On the 11th. inst.. the District Board officially visited the Blessed Therese Branch, Quen's Park, and were delighted with the evidence of vitality available in that small branch. The Rey Father Finnegan, who is the Presinent was, of course, away, being absent attendime the Eucharistic Congress. but his place was ably filled by Bro. B. Hastie. and the prospects are very bright for a gradual improvement in the strength of the beanch. On the 16th. inst.. St. Brigid's was visited, and here again the District Officers were very pleased with the good attentance at the meeting and the splentid quality of the members. St. Bligid's, for the last four years, has been a source of very great satisfaction to successive Distriit Boards, and although its numeriial strength is not being increased rapidly, still there is a gradual improvement, which will certainly be sustained. On Monday next, the 30th. inst.. the District Board will officially visit the Star of the Sea Branch. Fremantle.

Hill Street Tennis Club

It was pleasing to see the large crowd present n the courts during the week-end. All players are showing much interest in the games these days and are making determined efforts to improve their form. The men's singles championship was won by Mr. N. Brady, whose fine play particularly in the final match, earned him many congratulations. In the first round of the pennants all teams were successful excepting the "A" Grade Ladies and the "R" Grade men. A welcome is extended to Miss Gwen .Tudici, who has just joined the club. and will most probably be a member of the "A" Grade team.

Ambassadors Theatre

An unusual programme commenced a week's run at the Ambassador on Friday, May 27. "The Guardsman" will be the chiet picture, in which Lynne Fontanne and Alfred Lunt are the stars.

Grand Theatre's AB-British Policy "Splinters in the Navy" Starts Tidal Wave of Merriment. When brighter days commence once again we will naturally expect some thing like the nautical knockabout comedy, "Splinters in the Navy," stat• ring the whimsical.Sydney Howard and the current attraction, at the Grand Tl.catre. in Perth, to be in the very front rank. "Splinters in the Navy'. is a sheer joy, because its humour is criep, clean and fast and furious, and it is notable because it marks a definite change in the attitude of British officialdom towards a fast growing and greatly important industry. The picture was made with the full co-operation of the British Navy, and the "sets" are net "sets" in the strictest seese, but the real. dyed-in-thewool thing. British Dominions Films secured the "loan" of a British man'o'war ship and thiee parts of the company's hilarious comedy was made, by Director Walter Forde. on the quarter deck and in the mess room. Sydney Howard, remembered for his priceless etchings in "Splinters," "French Leave," and "Tilly of Bloomsbury." plays the part of A.B. Joe Crabbs. who gets the bright idea of holding a "Splinters" show on the quarter deck in honour of the engage. me% t of the Admiral. Howard also fig.

North Fremantle and Palmyra Notes In order to comply with the wishes of our Holy Father the Pope, to make the Feast of Corpus Christi, and its octave, a time of special devotion. Exposition of the Most Blessed Sacrament will take place in St. Anne's Church, North Fremantle, on Sunday, May 29th., this being the most convenient day for those whose work would prevent their being present at Adoration on Thursday. The Blessed Sacrament will be exposed from after Mass till devotions at 4 p.m. The faithful of St. Gerard's are earnestly exhorted to join in this Act A good suggestion of Adoration. would be to come in half an hour before devotions, so as to have time to make a visit, and then be present at Benediction. Mrs. Morrow, of Waddell-road, Bicton, and Mrs. Fenton, of Canning-road, Pa:myra, had word from their sister in America that her son, Rev. Joseph McInerney, was ordained to the priesthood on last Saturday. We regret to have to announce the departure of two of our exemplary Catholics from St. Gerard's, in Mr. and MIS. McCabe, for Armadale. We are sorry to lose such excellent Catholics from our midst- but hope that when brighter times come they will return to St. Gerard's. Mr. J. Shannon, of North Fremantle Railway Station, who has been an inmate of St. John of God's Hospital for some time, is much better, and able to return home. Miss Nellie Coughlan, of Thompsonroad, North Fremantle. who has been ailing for some time, is now a patient We in St. John of God's Hospital. trust to hear soon that she is on the mend. The euchre party, organised by Mrs Anderson, and held at St. Gerard's, Palmyra, last Monday night ,was most successful and curpassed all expectations. Mrs. Coglan's efforts in organising a house party at Mrs. Maxwell's home, North Fremantle, was well rewarded by an excellen' attendance of wellwi,hers for the success of her stall. Mrs. Williams, of Leighton, had a like success with her house party, held at Mrs. Chapman's home, Victoria Avenue, North Fremantle, on last Tuesday night. To these good ladies, who so kindly lent their homes, we tender our grateful thanks.

Although the attendance was small, a good deal of business was transacted. It was learned with much regret that since the last meeting death had claimed one of our oldest members, in the person of Bro. M. McDonnell. The lato brother, who had been a member for over 35 years, took a keen and lively interest in Irish Forestry, and was always prominent in the social activities of his branch.

NEW CHURCH, PITHARA. The blessing and opening of the new Church and Presbytery at Pithara, on April 3rd., was a day of general rejoicing for the Catholic residents of Pithara and surrounding districts. The ceremony was performed by his Lordship Right Rev. Dr. Catalan, O.S.B. Solemn High Mass was celebrated by His Lordship, who also Confirmed a number of candidates. The duties of Master of Ceremonies were efficiently carried out by Rev. Father Alcalde, assisted by Mr. Val Gatti. The church was artistically decorated by the ladies of the parish. The clemency of the weather enabled a large attendance of people from every

corner of the district. This must have being very encouraging to Rev. Father H.

Father Stephen Moreno, 0.S.B., presidThe ever inspiring ed at the organ. s tr....ins of the "Regina Coeli" struck a note of deep joy in the hearts of t hose present, when its joyful melodies

FAITH OF OUR FATHERS By E. J.

The Church of Christ (Continued)

Fremantle C.Y.M.S. Two events of great interest to members of the Fremantle branch of the C.Y..M.S took place during the past w eek. They were the first annual general meeting of the branch, and the opening football match of the season against members of the Perth branch of the Society. The first anneal general meeting of the club was well attended. It was held. on Thursday evening, May 19, and pleasing to relate, there were several new faces among the crowd. The election of officers for the next twelve months was the most important item on the agenda, and resulted in the following members being chosen: Mr. F. Collins and Mr. R. Jolley were returned unopposed for the positions of president and vice-president. Mr. G. Paul succeeded Mr. J. Sheridan to the position of secretary; Mr. R. Smith was appointed assistant secretary; Messrs. M. Ryan and B. Roddy were returned unopposed for the positions of treasurer and librarian, respectively, whilst Messrs. G. Jeffs, K. Kelly, A. James and J. Sheridan were selected to the general committee. Mr. M. Gallagher was once again chosen as warden. Of these members, Messrs. R. Smith and K. Kelly are the only new ones on the controling board, and their suscess proved most popular. Both these young men should certainly be deeded acquisitions .to the committee, for in addition to being foundation members, both have been very cons:stent club men in their attendance during the past twelve months, and have always manifested keen interest in the doings of the branch. The secretary's report showed that the club has a membership of 100 members ,but, unfortunately. only 50 per cent. of this number are financial. Most of the social activities sponsored by the branch during the past twelve months had been successful, but where failures had been recorded the new committee would be in a position to detect the cause of the failure and thus rectify any future error. Attendances at committee meetings had been very satisfactory. Among other business discussed during the meeting was the granting of a honorarium to the secretary. This motion was lost. The charging of a small fee to members for using the billiard table and badminton set was held in abeyance pending a committee meeting. The forming of a dramatic society and the appointment of leaders for different divisions was discussed. It was also decided to award a fine cup to the leader of the division whose members were most regular in their attendance at club meetings. The offering of a trophy to the value of one guinea to the member who was responsible for introducing the largest number of new members during the ensuing year, was accepted. This trophy was offered by the president. Appreciation of the good work and valuable services of Mr. F. Collins to the branch was expressed.

PERTH. SATURDAY, MAY 28, 1932.

The Nature of Inspiration There is nothing extravagant or anreasonable in the idea of Inspiration. For insttmce, if an employer calls a messenger and instructs him to deliv,:r a message. then he is practising inspiration. The boy, in delivering the message is acting as his spokesman, is transmitting his thoughts, and the master, as principal agent, is responsible fot the effects produce,l by the message. The boy is merely his instrument, even though he is also using his And if the employer in own power of free w:ll and intellect whilst actually messenger, this control could way mysterious some delivering the message, in such a way that he would say exactly what he wished him to say and nothing else, then we should have almost an exact counterpart to the Divine Inspiration of the Scriptures. In such a way does God use human minds and wills to convey His message to mankind. • • • • Catholic doctrine states that the Books of the Bible have been written by men under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, so that the things they wrote are the thoughts God wished them to present to us, as His thoughts and His message. The effect of Inspiration, then, is that God is the Author of Holy Scripture, and the Bible is the Word of God. God is the principal cause, nd the inspired writer is His instrument. He may not, probably did not, have the remotest idea that God was inspiring him. He has to work for his information like any other writer, and his materials may be all acquired by purely human means. That is, he may receive no revelation whatsoever. It is, however, in the free picking and choosing of his information that he is divinely guarded. It is in this Divine illumination of the writer's judgment that Inspration consists. It differs from Revelation and from Infallibility. Revelation cannot be applied to all 'he Bible. because it is not all Divinely revealed. Neither can Infallibility, because this only guarantees the truth of doctrines of faith or morals, whereas everything in the Bible is true. Though everything in the Bible is true, it is not necessarily true in the same sense. The same applies to every branch of literature. There are various forms of speech in use, such as metaphor, parable, fable, proverbs, poetry, drama, as well as historical composition. It is immaterial to the sublime lessons conveyed by "Othello," for instance, whether such a person as "The Moor of Venice" ever actually existed. Yet it contains didactic truth, though not historically true. So. too, with the Prodigal Son in the parThis distinction apable, and with job in that dramatic work plies to all the Bible. God used the human writer with his methods of literary expression as a means of communicating to us His message. When we say that all Scripture is true, we have to examine the particular form of literary expression that is being employed before we can judge whether it is historic or didactic truth that is being taught. C' But perhaps there are historic errors in the parts of the Bible that are confessedly historical records Not all the research of friend or foe has been able to find one hi,torical error in the Bible. On the contrary, the research work, so far as it has proceeded. has substantiated the truth even in minute details of the Bible narrative. The New Testament gives the best opportunity for comparison with contemporary history. Yet, in spite of 150 years of untiring investigation, not a single historical error has ever been proved. It is advisable, therefore, to be on one's guard against accepting bold statements about errors in the Bible, which are constantly to be traced to rationalistic or atheistic writers, and which have no foundation in fact

The Gospel tells of the tender mercy of the Sacred Heart, the value of each human soul in His Eyes, His eagerness to win back the erring ones. He likens Himself to a shepherd, who, having lost one of his hundred sheep, leaves the ninety-nine and goes in search of it. and when he has found it, lays it on his shohlder rejoicing, and brings it back safely to the fold. He compares himself, too, to a poor woman who loses a groat (a small coin) and goes to almost endless troubiz. to recover it, and when she has succeeded, calls upon her neighbours to share her joy. How much He has He became man, endured to have us! and suffered, and died, and He "continues to pursue poor sinners by interior, preventing graces, carrying them back upon His . boulders in the Holy Sacraments, and by the zealous efforts "It is a great and of His priests." extraordinary joy that He has in the pardon and conversion of a sinner, be. cause goodness and mercy are His sweet attributes.

VALEDICTORY TO MR. PHIL LYNCH. When it becarrle known that Mr. Phil Lynch, with his son and daughter —Mr. Alphonsus Lynch and Miss Mary Lynch—had definitely decided to attend the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin. and would be sailing on the "Mongolia," leaving Fremantle on May 16, his many friends at Three Springs felt that the time was all too short in which to arrange a suitable farewell. However, a meeting was convened by Mr. R. Caldow and Mr. Franklin, and arrangements hurriedly made, the entertainment to take the form of a social evening and presentation. There were keen disappointment when it was found impossible to secure the Town Hall for that evening, as everyone felt that only the best was good enough for However, the the departing guest. c ommodious commercial room at the hotel was kindly put at their disposal, and Mr. Lynch was prevailed upon to delay his departure for a day. Seated with Mr. Lynch was Miss Mary Lynch, and owing to the unavoidable absence of Mr. Phonsie Lynch, his place was The taken by Mr. Jimmy Lynch. room was filled to overflowing, for every resident of the district looked upon Mr. Lynch as his or her friend. A very fine programme of vocal and instrumental items was rendered. Mr. J. Gooch's dances of a Irish hornpipe and jig being very appropriate and enjoyable. Mr. Caldow. Chairman, spoke as Mr. Lynch's oldest friend in the district. They had been -close neighbours and companions during very many Years, and never once could he remember that they had any serious difference of opinion, and certainly never a quarrel —but then that was characteristic of He stressed the Irish and Scotch. the striking cheerfulness and optimism of their guest. who had seen good and bad times during his 22 years' residence amongst them, and even under the most trying circumstances he presented a cheerfulness which his wonderful faith alone could preserve. Mr. Luscombe also wished to add hi.: tribute of respect and esteem to their departing guest. and hoped that many years would still be left him in which to enjoy to the full that mead of leisure and rest which he had so truly earned, and assured him that if he some day returned to Three Springs his friends would be only too ready and welcome to give him a rousing welcome. Mr. E. K. Byrne. Mr. Franklin, Mr. Bastian, Mr. funt. Mrs. Bastian, and several others spoke in no unmeasured terms of the many sterling qualities which secured for Mr. Lynch the position he had in the estimation of every resident of the district. Mr. Jim Clune spoke for the younger friends, and paid tribute to the excellent example always given by Mr. Lynch. His friendship was certainly something that every young person in the district was proud to have, and his example something to emulate, so for. and with, those young people he would lase to say just three words, "God bless you. Rev. Father Lynch. for his sister and brother, in just a few words, thanked the speakers for all the nice things said about his father that evening, the memory of which was something the family would ever hold dear. When Mr. Lynch rose to respond, he was greeted with prolonged applause, and was visibly affected, but his ready Irish wit and humour as ever served him in good stead. He was pleased beyond expression to see so many good friends present. and he did not recognise himself at all painted in the glowing colours as so many had done that evening. He was hoping to see the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin, and then he could say he had his heart's desire. He might say that a triple privilege would be his and one allotted to him alone—that of being the only Western Australian to attend three wonderful Church functions—the first Australian Pilgrimage to Rome and Lourdes in 1925; the first Eucharistic Congress in Australia, that held in Sydney in 1928; and now the first Eucharistic Congress in Ireland, to be held in Dublin in June. Truly he was much favoured. At present it wa, his intention to remain in Ireland, but since hearing so many nice things said of him, he was perhaps wavering. If anything would induce him to return to Australia, then it was the knowledge that he had so many good friends in Three Springs. He would like to say, in conclusion, that each and everyone would be remembered by him at those times and places where remembrance mattered most.

PATRONISE OUR ADVERTISER-S.

\Ir. Caldow then, on. behalf of the people of Three Springs, - presented Mr, Lynch with an illuminated address, which was in the form of a scroll, and a beautiful "Australian Wool" travelling rug, which he hoped might help to remind him of the many warm friends he left in Three Springs. Mr. Lynch thanked Mr. Caldow and all present for their very fine gift. which would he among his most cher: ished possessions. An opportunity was then given for personal farewells to Mr. Lynch and Miss Mary Lynch, who left soon after per motor for Perth. Not the least enjoyable of the many private farewell functions tendered to Mr. Phil Lynch and his daughter, Miss Mary Lynch, on their departure from Three Springs, was that given by Matron Coffey, when she entertained them to dinner on Monday evening, May 9th. Other members of the fam. ily and close. friends were present, amongst those being. Rev. Father Lynch. Mr. McDonald, Mr. Luscombe, Mr. and Mrs. Caldow. Several toasts were proposed and honoured, and at the conclusion of a very pleasant evening all present formed a circle around the departing guests and joining hands sang "Auld Lang Syne," at the conclu-lion of which Dr. Mayrhofer called for three ringing cheers for "Three Springs Grand Old Man." which were, given in fell measure and flowing over. Convent Farewell. The children of the Convent School were not to he outdone in showing their love for an ever-ready friend, as they felt they had in Mr. Phil Lynch, and with their teachers---the Dominican Sisters—arranged and rendered a most delightful concert pr -,gramme on the afternoon of Tuesday. May 10. The school room was prettile decorated for the occasion, and the fraction served a double purpose, as the children took the opportunity of saying goodbye to two of their number, Master Jim and Miss Lily Gooce who are travelling with their mother to the Eucharistic Congress in Dublin. A very pleasant time was spent by all, and Mr. Perry delighted the young folks with his step-dancing. A very pleasing tribute of affection was paid to Miss Mary Lynch. when of her former school companion. journeyed from Dongarra Convent to wave her farewell and hold a streamer as. the "Mongolia" left Fremantle at 3.13 p.m. on May 16th., just think of Mary it. 300 miles to say goodbye! must surely have merited her position, held for three.years as the most popular girl in the school

HOME, SWEET HOME

but it weakens our powers of resistance against temptation, blurs the image of God :n which the soul was created, and though it is not a deliberate rejection of yet it is a turning aside from God Who is our Sole Good. Venial sin, therefore, brings with it a penalty—greater or less according to its nature—which the God of infinite Justice will exact to the last farthing, either in this world or in the world to come.

'Mid pleasures and palaces, wherever we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home." THE MONTH OF MAY. ( By Thos. Le Breton.) the angel sang, A ve Maria, long, long years ago.

Ave Maria, to-day we bring Rarest of flowers to deck your shrine. For this is your own, sweet month of May, Gentle, peerless Mother of our King. You are our guiding star. We are thine Children. Smile on us kindly to-day.

Let a man ale.ays think that he has God before his eyes. Let charity issue in good deeds. Let us be foremost in them. It is only the humble that are never jealous.—St. Bernard. Let us heartily embrace the humiliations and contempt which are bestowed upon us, since we have a Master and Lord Who desired nothing else. Happy he who desires the compassion of Our Lady; happiest, supremely happy, he who in compassion and gentleness becomes like the Mother of God. On this earth we cannot find a more brilliant jewel, or a more lovely treasure, than Jesus in the Blessed Sacramente-St. Alphonsus Liguori. Grant, Lord, that my memory may retain Thy benefits, that my will may burn with the fire of Thy charity, and that with the key of obedience I may Open heaven. Every good desire helps the work of the Church. If we may say from our hearts, "The Kingdom Come.- this de sire helps the spread of grace according to its fervour. If we say, "Eternal light shine upon them," this cry is heard and full value given it. Pray with perseverance as well as f aith, God often defers to grant our petitions because He rejoices in the homage which we render Him by them. And our desires are purified as well as increased by prolonged pleading. Try to care about something in this vast world besides the gratification of small selfish desires. Try to care for what is best in' thought and action— something that is good apart from the accidents of your own lot. Look on O ther lives besides your own. See what their troubles are and how they are borne. W hen we go to Communion we experience an extraordinary feeling of comfort, entirely which seems to envelop us What is .thus but Our Lord co Himself to every part .o f mmunicating our being and making us thrill with in's-1 ---St. John Vianney.

THE FATE OF THE LAZY BEE. He wouldn't be a busy bee, And neatly spread the wax! Said he: "Improving shining hours, Means bees with aching backs." He wouldn't learn geometry, Or how to build a cell. -Six sides," said he, "are silly When four will do as well." Away he flew. The summer months In merry leisure hied. When winter came, no home had he— He famished soon and died!

CORPUS CHRISTI. The Feast of Corpus Christi (Body of Christ) occurred this week. This Feast in the Latin Church is called on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday. It commemorates the institution of the Holy Eucharist. Mention is made of this great event in the Calendar of Polemius, as "Vatalis Calicis" (Birth of the Chalice) . Pope Urban IV., in 1264.• published a Bull, extolling the love of Our Saviour as expressed in the Holy Eucharist, and ordering that the annual celebration of Corpus Christi on the Thursday next after Trinity Sunday. This Pope granted many indulgences to the faithful for the attendance at Mass and at the Office. This Office was composed at the request of Pope Urban V., by St. Thomas Aquinas. and is one of the most beautiful in the Roman Breviary, and has been admired even by Protestants. SIN AND ITS CONSEQUENCES. The Catholic Church teaches that an actual sin is the deliberate transgression of any Divine Law which binds us in conscience. In other words, sin is any thottht, word, or deed contrary to the eternal law of God. Original Sin is entirely different, and is not contained in the present subject. The Church teaches also that the actual sins which men commit vary in the degree of their guilt, according as they are more or less opposed to the Divine Will. Some sins are by their nature so grievous that they cut off the sinner altogether from the friendship of God. These are called "mortal" sins, because they destroy that which is the supernatural life of the soul—namely, sanctifying grace—and because they render the soul liable to the penalty of eternal death He who commits a mortal sin turns away altogether from God, serving the creature instead of the Creator, and resting as it were in the creature as the end for which he was created. Unless such a one, before he leaves this world, reconcile himself to God by true repentance. he must take his part with those of whom it is said by the Holy Ghost: "They shall he tormented in the sight of the hole angels and of the Lamb; neither have they rest, day nor night. who have adored the beast and his image" (Apoc. xvi., These are terrible words, to 10-11). which nothing can be added nor taken away. Now we know from Scripture, and from our own daily experience, that no St. James reman is without sin. minds us that "we all in many way offend," yet it would be the height of unreason to suppose that every sin which we commit deserves this dreaddistinction the ful penalty, hence drawn by the Church between "mortal" and "venial" sin. Venial sin does not destroy the grace of God in the soul.

THE TWO RICH 'MEN. 0One morning long ago a certain rich man, famous for his selfishness. rode out of his castle gates and proudly paced his horse through the park. He looked to the left, and as far as his eve could see the land was all his, with its meadows and woods and streams; and all that lived therein owned him as master. He looked to the right—and saw seated on a stone a shabby, old wayfarer quietly reading a book. "Hello, fellow!" roared the Rich Man, "what means this Things are coming to a fine pass if ragged rascals can take their ease here. Don't you kno wthat this park is mine, and only for rich people to enjoy?" "If that's the case," smiled the wayfarer, "then I have every right to be here, for Iam indeed a rich man." "Rich!" snorted the other. "Aye, rich in rags! How dare you claim to be rich? Now I am rich—look at my domain. my grand clothes, my fine horse! but,. You! Good gracious. what do you own-?" "Treasures." replied the wayfarer. "Treasures!" replied the Rich Man. turning crimson with indignation and importance. "and what treasures do you possess?" "Love of God and love of my neighbour." said the wayfarer, "kindness and a word of cheer for all throughout my humble life. A helping hand gladly given, a sharing of such fortune as has come my wav—these are my treasures, so I am rich indeed." "Bless my soul." cried the Rich Man. "This fellow will be the death of me! Do You mean to say." he went on, "that because of this You lay claim to be a rich man?" "Certainly." said the wayfarer. "a richer man even than you!" "Richer than me? How do vou make that out?" "Why." smiled the wayfarer. "when you and.I come to die, you can't take your treasures with von, hut I shill have mine waiting for me!" TOO PROUD TO BE VAIN.

Only

When they go out on the street, but. vanity wanders; and pride, the hawk, takes a straight course with high-raised head. Vanity sees everything and expects to be seen by everybody. Pride has eyes for one person alone, and wholly immersed in that self-satisfying contemplation, is -oblivious to all else except occasionally when it condescends to brush aside impertinent trespasses upon its sacred studies. Vanity trips along, light, superficial creature, a brook of shallow, dancing, water, always about to dash over its banks. Pride is gloomy and heavy, a dark pool of unknown depths, harbouring creatures of the night When these distant relatives get into church, vanity starts for the front pew, and is glad to be late. It is delighted to be the drum-major in every procession, even if it must be drummajor at the end. Pride takes a rear seat where it can review the parade of "the rest of men." There pride severely condemns the giddiness of vanity. which is gazing about in all directions, only occasionally allowing its eyes to rest on the altar. Pride's eyes rarely stray aside, but pride's thoughts cannot afford any leisure for prayer. By the time pride has succeeded in measuring out the proper amount of mental condemnation due to the congregation. the sermon is beginning, and then the principal work for pri :le begins. Vanity does not hear the sermon: pride condemns it. If vanity would only stop long enough from comparing hat-fashions, or altar-fashions, or surplice-fashions, it would admit that it was a sinner. Pride is unlike the rest of mortals it cannot sin. It has its own Mount Sinai and deals out at its own discretion laws and exemptions to itself. Making a rough guess on a subject, upon which guessing is alone possible, we may say that vanity will perhaps get to Purgatory; pride will certainly—not arrive at Heaven. Vanity. therefore, 15 a weakness; pride is a disease. Great men and good men have been vain of their abili ties and their achievements. Great and good women have been vain, too, Vanity was rediculous in the man, but was easily forgiven in the woman. With pride the case is different. A proud man is feared: a proud woman is distinctly unpleasant —E. P. Donnelly. S J., in "Mustard Seed."

Vanity loves to bask in the reflected glory of the mirror: pride has no need for such foolishness It has for some time been aware of its own undimmed and undiminishable charms. Vanity is sixteen Years of age; pride about thirty-five, old enough to have

seen the silliness of vanity, not old enough to have experienced the silliness of self. These are ages of character, not of flesh and bone, and must be calculated by the records of common sense, not by the entries in the family Bible. If you cannot find the latter book, ask the grown-up daughters what has become of the birthregister. Vanity will know, because age is one of the points to which vanity is sensitive. But let us proceed with the toilet. Vanity puts on bright ribbons, but pride considers all that superfluous. Pride is engaged in disrobing others of their excellences, while vanity rushes into the latest Parisian horror. Not so pride. Pride puts on a very severe gown, wears a very severe expression, adopts a very severe tone and preaches to a very severe gathering the total abolition of the male trust. The peacock vanity is preening its feathers, and radiating its rainbow splendours. while the owl pride, living in the obscurity of its enlightenment, is blinking at the bright world about.

THE RECORD. The Little Herald of the Enthronement LITTLE JANE McCLORY, Holy Irish-American Child (1919-1928). By REV. JOHN P. CLARKE. (Copyright). (Special to "The Record," by permission of Mr. J. McClory. and the "Irish Catholic.") Her Mission. Darling Little Jane, the Little Herald, we feel sure, is now with the Great King Enthroned in heaven, but she can still smile down upon us. Her beautiful apostolate may now begin in real earnest. If her life means anything, it means love and sacrifice. True to the little way of Little Therese, she loved Jesus passionately with the heart of a child. She, too, might say: "We must offer Jesus the flowers of little sacrifices and win Him by a caress. That is how I have won Him, and that is why I shall be made so welcome." Already she is said to be showering her litle roses, but the Rose she would wish to shower upon every home and family is the Enthronement, that the Kingdom of Love is spread upon earth, that Jesus be the King of every heart, that all souls, the whole world, be consecrated to her Sweet Sacred Heart of Jesus Fiat! Adveniat Regnum Tuum! Amen! The Enthronement. The readers of "The Little Herald" will not, we trust, put the little story aside without endeavouring prayerfully to enter into the meaning and purpose of her Mission of Love. It is nothing less than the ENTHRONEMENT of the SACRED HEART in HOMES and FAMILIES. His Heart for Every Home and Every Heart, His Own. It was in that Centre of Love, Paray-le-Monial, that this beautiful apostolate began. Imbued with the Revelations of the Sacred Heart to Saint Margaret Mary, a humble priest of the Society of the Sacred Heart, Father suffering Crawley-Boevey, Matheo "from a lesion of the heart and brain," came from Valparaiso. Chili, to this world-wide Shrine and was marvellousThat same evening he rely mired. ceived a special grace that came in the form of an intuition that Our Lord demanded him to conquer the world This was to for His Sacred Heart. be accomplished by enthroning the Sacred Heart in each family. Immediately he appealed to Pope Pius X., who blessed the Work and even COMMANDED him "to devote his whole life" to this apostolate. Wonderful Graces. Marvellous has lieen the success of Everywhere wonderful his mission. graces accompany the Work of the EnAs thronement of the Sacred Heart. one Bishop writes: "Dear Father. what I have witnessed is not the resurrection of one dead man only, but that of a whole cemetery." Homes and families, institutions, convents, schools. and colleges have experienced the grand blessings that flow from this Enthronement. The fundamental idea of the Enthronement is simply that the Sacred Heart wants to be loved. He yearns to reign over the world by Love. to he enthroned as the King of Love in every home. That He will succeed is beyond doubt. He Himself has told. Sister Benigna Consolata that "He would resurrect society by Love." and He revealed to St. Margaret Mary: "T will conquer in spite of all My enemies and those who may oppose Me.But He should be seconded in His desires, and the way to succeed in this regeneration is to obtain the consecration of each individual family .by the Enthronement.

Very Simple.

Kind reader, with such an example as the home of Little Jane before you. can You refuse to join in this apostolate? It is thus very simple to enter upon the desires of the Heart of Jesus. His promises are magnificent: "I will bless," RIDDLE-ME-REE. My first is in fancy. He said, "the houses wherein the image MY second in hike. of My Sacred Heart shall be exposed My third is in He should be and -HONOURED." Nancy, MY fourth is in strike.

"Dear Father Matheo,—Please can I make the Night Holy Hour each month with my mother? Please bless me.—Your friend, "JANE McCLORY." This charming letter of the Little Herald reveals the inner soul of a true little lover of Jesus. Imbued with the spirit of the Enthronement, she yearned to love Him with greater sacrifice. And her burning desire was realised. It was in February, 1928, that Father Matheo answered her: "A special blessing for dear Jane," he wrote. "Yes, she must adore Jesus with sacrifice, even sleepy." March and April found Little Jane up at midnight with her mother. making the Holy Hour before the family shrine of the Sacred Heart. It was the cause of great peace and joy to her She would love Jesus— little heart. yes, even unto folly. During the Wight. Father Matheo was inspired to institute this Nightly Holy Hour of Adoration at Home to answer the need of generous souls, those who lived more perfectly the spirit of Enthronement, to do more, much more, for the sweet During the Sacred Heart of Jesus. night, when the world is asleep the devil is very busy and might cry out in haste: "See, I have more victims But this must not be than You." And countless souls must be true. found ot "watch one hour with Him" at a time when His Love is scorned. It is thus that they will repair for the insults and sins that are hurled in It is this derision at His Heart. spirnt that animates the nightly adorers who desire - to make amends for this coldness and indifference of the world at large. This Divine project of familial and social reparation has succeeded far beyond Father Nlatheo's hopes. Battalions have gathered around him under the banner of the Sacred Heart. They have entered into the fray to help conquer the world for Him by Whole famitheir hidden apostolate. lies have joined to spread the Kingdom of Love. I nto Two Classes. "These happy families may be divided into classes. First, those who promise to make the Holy Hour before the Image of the King of Love on the eve of the First Friday. or some other day at their choice, once a month. It might be that parents and children— all —assemble for this purpose at the most favourable hour, often from 8 to 9 p.m.. or even later, to join in this Nocturnal Hour of Reparation and Love. "A second class that is more generous, and consequently smaller, consists of families who organise a Night of A doration at Home. This is done preferably on the eve of the First Friday in families, fervent families that are

sufficiently large enough in number to adore from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. "Is begging for an Hour of Adoration once a month too much when this may be done without leaving home, when thousands upon thousands spend whole nights in worldly. if not sinful, pleasures? Will sin alone have its sway, and will not love make reparation? Judas will keep guard to betray His Master, and his accomplices will watch with him; will the Apostles and lovers of Jesus always be drowsy with sleep and not be willing to watch one hour with Him? It is the success of this Apostolate of Love and Reparation that Little Jane would most earnestly desire to Her own beautiful exaccomplish. ample points the way. No one is too old or too young to share in her mission. The little children especially are a power in this Apostolate. Let, then, the Heart of Jesus reign. Come —come, all—corne, let us adore Him!

I've been trying love you. to say that for a long time now, and, Aileen, you have lovely hair. I don't know what it reminds me of—Yes-see? See where the green leaves are turning to gold; that is it. One of these days I will make up a song. Why. Aileen, you look at me so strangely." "Come with me, Terence." She led him back to the foot of the young tree at which she had before been gazing. "See this tree. Terence, it reminds me of you. It is like you, and Unlike you in this reyet unlike. spect: whereas this tree is full of ambition to grow and raise its head high with its companions—you have no ambition. Ah. forgive me, Terence," as she saw- the look of pain lift across his face. "I do not wish to cause you Don't pain, but 'tis true, isn't it? you ever feel You ever want to go out into the world, and do something?
