" The Merchant of Venice"

B assani° symBassani° hardly enlists our at the outset: he appears pathy conspicuous for his reckless, as most He seems very spendthrift nature. Salanio and Salarino, to different ittle l "hangers-on" to the who are merely He comes, as he wealthy Antonio. come before, to borsays he had often only row money from his friend, with a remote chance of ever paying him states back. He, likewise, very frankly fits reasons (Act I., i., 120 seq.) ; he has much "disabled' his "Estate," "by czomething showing a more swelling port conThan my faint means would grant tinuance:" his great concern is— " . . . to come fairly off from the great debts Wherein my time, something too prodigal. Hath kept me gaged." Worse, he appears as a fortune-hunter. In Belmont," he explains significantly, "is a lady richly left." he seems to improve However as the wooing proceeds, and having started with only mercenary aims, he grows to love the lady for her beauty and her worth Also, the affection and esteem with which he is regarded both by Antonio and by Portia, suggest that there is more in the man than in the ordinary fortune-hunter. His heedless extravagance is further e xemplified by another srnall touch. We learn that directly he is assured of a loan from Antonio, he orders a new livery for all his servants (II., ii., 123).. His Cheerfulness. Bassani° strikes the keynote of his character in the very first words he utters to Salanio and Salarino: "Good signiors both, when shall we laugh?" (Act I., Sc. i.) and again, he says to Gratiano (II.. ii., 211): "I would entreat you return to put on Your boldest suit of mirth. for we have friend That purpose merriment." His Conduct in the Gasket Scene. Apparently Bassani° undergoes a change while at Belmont. The mercenary motive has given place to a genuinelpassion, which sobers and riofines him. He appears as the "scholar and soldier, worthy of all praise,- one who can stand the test that Portia's f ather had in his mind when he devised the lottery of the caskets; he has learned not to "Trust to appearances," as witness his speech (III., ii.. 73-107), from which we learn more of the possibilities of his character than we knew before. His Genuine Love for Antonio. In the caws of Salanio and Salarino we do not hear of any great affection for their benefactor, and evidently their regard for them is not great. But there is something attractive in BasO's generous tributes (III., ii.. 288-

but, we suspect, they would not willingly be without it. His Merry Wit. Throughout the play Gratiano is always ready with his tongue. His wit is ready, and, perhaps, not so beneath contempt as one might gather from Bassanio's patronising remark: "Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than any man in all Venice" (I., i., 114), since it is uttered just after Gratiano has made those extremely sensible remarks about the sort of men "who do a wilful stillness entertain" . . . . as who should say, I am Sir Oracle, and when I ope my lips let no dog bark." It is true his wit Is, as a rule, more verbal and superficial, as in the Trial Scene, where it is chiefly noticeable for its sting and violence. His first passage with Shylock (IV.. i., 122), "Not on thy sole, but on thy soul, harsh Jew . . . can no prayers pierce thee!" is, perhaps, bad enough to merit Shylock's dignified retort: "No! none that thou hast wit enough to make!" and, later, "Repair thy wit, good youth, or it will fall to cureless ruin." But it cannot be denied that he "has him on the hip," in his mocking words: "A second Daniel. a Daniel, Jew," whatever we may think of the taste of the remark under the circumstances. Jessica: Her Naive Childishness. We get a glimpse of the Jew's daughter in her own unattractive home, and from her father's remarks we gather that she is inclined to be frivolous when his back is turned. She likes "clambering up to the casements." and "thrusting her head into the public street." to see the masqueraders pass. Shylock's forbidding repression has had its natural effect, and bred in Jessica a secrecy and deceit, for whicn we cannot entirely blame her. This artless, childish nature is well shown in Tubal's account of how she and Lorenzo are squandering the Jew's hoarded wealth in Genoa (Act III.. Sc, i.), spending "fourscore ducats at a sitting.- and exchanging his turquoise ring for a monkey! Her Treachery. Jessica's charm ot manner, and the general unloveableness of her father, have led people to pass lightly over several not very estimable traits in her character. Lorenzo is infatuated, or he could not have said (II., vi., 52-57): "For she is wise, if I can judge of her; And fair she is if that mine eyes be true; And true she is. as she bath proved herself; And therefore, like herself, wise, fair, and true, Shall she be placed in my constant soul." On the contrary. she is anything but true to her father, her religion, or her race. Her lack of delicacy, too, is a grave blemish; the callous way in which she gives way Shy-lock's treasures (Act II., Cc. vi.). and the heartless allusions to them: "Here catch this casket: it is worth the pains:" . . . "I will make fast the doors and gild myself with some more 'ducats'," should not be glossed over. Likewise, her allusions to her change of religion (Act II., Sc. iii.), jar upon one. Excuses for Her. The chief excuse for Jessica is her sprightly charm. (ii.) It must be allowed also, that, as she herself states, her home was "a hell"; we hear of no mother or female influence for good: she is debarred by her grim father from developing her bright, sociable. nature with any outAgain, a susside acquaintance. picious father creates a deceitful child. (iii.) Finally, the most we can say for her is that she is a child, and one can hardly apply in her case the standards one would apply to grown-up people. (iv.) She has, it is true, the grace to make some apology for her conduct to her father (II., ii., 13-16). "Alack! what heinous sin it is in me. To be ashamed to be my father's child! But. though I am a daughter to his blood, I am not to his manners!"

The dearest friend to me, 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." A t the outset, he endeavoured to dissuade Antonio from the terrible bond iii., 148-9) : "you shall not seal to such a bond for me!

He wished to thank the clergy, in particts lar, for their attendance, also Rey, Brother Grealy, who represented the Christian Brothers. He was grateful to Rev. Mr. Booth, whose words of ap. preciation and congratulation he valued so much. He would assure the people that no words or actions of his in the future would ever be the cause of dia turbing the friendly relations that exist at present between all sections of the Northampton community (Loud ap. olause.) His special thanks were due to the Chairman (Mr. Cunningham), the secretary (Mr. K. Mitchell), and all the members of the organising committee of the celebrations (Applause). Finally, he wished to thank them for the testimonial. He well knew the bad times through which they were passing, which only served to enhance the value of their gift. He did not wish to accept of it personally. He had one fayour to ask of them. With the consent of the donors, he would place the amount to the credit of the new church building fund (Applause). He had no desires to labour elsewhere, and if God granted him length of days with a Golden Jubilee celebration, as Mr. Cunningham had said, he hoped that it also would be celebrated among the kindly generous people of Northampton .Prolonged applause).

VERY REV, DEAN IRWIN.

Wednesday, May 25, 1932, was a redletter day for the Catholics of Northampton, a pleasantly situated rural town lying about forty miles to the north of Geraldton. It marked the slyer jubilee of priesthood of their beloved pastor, Very Rev. Dean Irwin. With traditional veneration and affection for their clergy, the parishioners of Northampton assembled in great numbers in the morning at the Church of St. Mary's in Ara Coeli, for a Solemn High Mass of thanksgiving, and again in the evening at the King's Hall, for a grand social and presentation. Ideal weather conditions favoured the celebrations, and there were smiles of satisfaction everywhere manifest for the recent rains. His Lordship the Bishop (Right Rev. J. O'Collins, D.D.), who was on visitation in the North-West. was unavoidably absent, and sent his greetings over the wires. .Of the clergy of the Diocese. Very Rev. Dean Hawes (Mullewa), Rev. Father Prendergast (Murchison). Rev. Father Lynch (Three Springs), and Rev. Father Albert (Tardun) were present in person, and apologies and greetings were received from Rev. Fathers Halpin, Murphy, and McKay. Rev. Brother Grealy, of Geraldton, attended the Jubilee celebrations on behalf of the Christian Brothers' Community. Sheafs of telegrams and letters of congratulations poured into the Jubilarian all through the day, from all parts of the State and far beyond it. Born in Limerick, Ireland, in 1882, James Irwin, who was a pupil of the Christian Brothers, at Charleville, Ireland, made his studies at Propaganda College, Rome. He was ordained on Trinity Sunday. May 25, 1907. He volunteered for the Geraldton Diocese, and after a brief holiday in his native land, arrived in Perth about November of the same year. He was given charge of the Carnar-yon parish, and on one occasion, in his huge parish, he did not meet a priest for six months. After a stay of seven years in C,arnarvon, Father Irwin was transferred to Meekatharra, where he remained six years. Then two years were spent at the Cathedral in Geraldton, as Administrator, and finally, in 1926. he took charge of the parish of Northampton, where he has since resided. Very recently his Lordship the Bishop of Geraldton conferred on the Jubilarian the title of Dean. in recognition of his faithful service in the diocese. High Mass and General Communion. The celebrations commenced with Solemn High Mass at 7.30 a.m., when the church was packed. Moreover, the whole congregation approached the Altar Rails, as a thanksgiving offering, and it was this touching sight that moved the heart of the Jubilarian more than any other demonstration of the The Jubilarian was the celeday. brant of the Mass. with Dean Hawes deacon, Rev.

Preaching to the text: "Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisrech." Very Rev. Dean Hawes convincingly set out the

genuineness of the priesthood of the Catholic Church. He showed its nobility and also the sacrifices it demands of those who would embrace it. Finally, briefly surveying the life of the Jubilarian, he dwelt on the great services he had rendered the Church during twenty-five years of loyal service, and prayed God's choicest blessings to be showered on him on this great day, and for the years he would yet be spared to continue his life's calling. Communion Breakfast. Subsequent to the Mass, a Commu• nion Breakfast for all the adult members of the congregation was served in the Convent School Hall, which was tastefully decorated for the occasion. The tables presented a pleasing sight, and a willing band of ladies waited on those who feasted. Mr. John Cunningham occupied the chair, and at the conclusion of breakfast presented a short toast-list. The toast of "The Pope and the King" having been honoured, the Chairman proposed "The Bishop and Clergy." Reviewing the labours of the Bishop since his advent to the diocese, the speaker concluded that Providence had placed the right man in the right He paid a deservplace. (Applause.) ed tribute to the priests of the diocese, who have to labour in large areas, often The religious under great hardship. Order of Sisters and the more recently founded Community of Christian Brothers, were co-operating with the Bishop and clergy in advancing the Kingdom of God. Very Rev. Dean Hawes responded to the toast, and expressed regret at the unavoidable absence of the Bishop, who would so much like to be there in person to honour the guest of the day. Rev. Father Prendergast proposed the toast of "The Jubilarian: Very Rev. Dean Irwin." The speaker first dwelt on the religious significance of jubilees and their place in the liturgy of Holy Mother the Church. In the course of a very interesting speech, Father Prendergast dwelt on the characteristics of the Jubilarian that had endeared him to his people and his brother priests. The toast was drunk with musical honours, and amidst prolonged and hearty applause, the Dean rose to respond. The Jubilarian, with much feeling, expressed his thanks for all that was being done to honour the great day, one of the great days of his life. He said he was especially grateful to his people for their wonderful demonstration of faith on that morning in approaching the Altar Rails in such large numbers, and again for assembling at the festive board to tell him, by their presence, of their feelings of joy and gratitude. He also wished to thank his brother priests who had come such long distances, some of them over 400 miles, to celebrate his jubilee. He was also grateful to Rev. Brother Grealy, of the Christian Brothers' College, Geraldton, for his presence, and all that it stood for. The speaker recalled the day of his ordination in the Church of St. John Lateran at Rome, and, as is, in contrast, some of the hardships and incbnveniences that a priest's life in the North-West and Murchison had since provided him with. But, he asked, was he sorry for his choice of mission. Not one bit. It was worth it all. He had made many friends in every place: he had been able to da a little service for his Master, and he would be quite willing, and more than willing, to choose the same road again. From the bottom of his heart he thanked all who were assisting in the Jubilee festivities. Rev. Brother Grealy, proposing the toast of "The Ladies," said that their task was no light one, but they had done it exceptionally well, and the whole function would compore more than favourabb- with similar functions in much larger centres (Applause). He took occasion to offer the congratulations of the Christian Brothers to the Dean on the attainment of his Jubilee, more particularly so, since he was an e x-pupil of one of their schools.

A t the instance of Dean Irwin, the health of the Chairman, Mr. J. Cunningham, was honoured. This concluded the breakfast, when all adjourned to the Church for Solemn Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The Presentation Nuns entertained Dean Irwin, the visiting clergy, and Brother Grealy at dinner. The Sisters had prepared a special Jubilee Cake of

During the afternoon the party made a trip to the mouth of the river, and a call at the family home of Mr. John Cunningham. Social and Presentation. The King's Hall, Northampton, presented an animated sight that evening, when Dean Irwin and his party-arrived The hall shortly before nine o'clock. was thronged, and large numbers looked down from the gallery. Not only were the Catholics of Northampton present, but large numbers from the outlying territories of the parish, particularly Nabawa, Nanson, Kojerna, Northern Gully and the Upper ChapSeveral cars also made the man. journey from Geraldton. Again the non-Catholics of the town and district willingly mingled with their Catholic brethren to honour the guest of the Rev. Mr. Booth (Anglican) evening. had come in person to pay his respects to the Jubilarian. The Chairman (Mr. Cunningham) prefaced his remarks by saying that probably everyone in that large gathering knew the significance of the night's function. It was to honour twentyfive years of priesthood of a beloved pastor and honoured citizen, Very Rev, Dean Irwin (Applause) . The speaker gave a vivid picture of the Jubilarian's early life in Ireland, young manhood in Rome, and noble and self-sacrificing labours for a quarter of a century in Western Australia. The last six years of those years had been spent in Northampton. and though it is a comparatively short period, it was more than enough for the people to learn the w orth of their guest. As a little proof of their regard for the Jubilarian, the people of the parish, in particular, and come other friends in the diocese, had subscribed to a testimonial, which he would ask the Dean to accept in the spirit in which they offered it, one of deepest gratitude for his services to them. That he may be spared to celebrate his Golden jubilee, twenty-five years hence, was their earnest wish -(Applause). The remarks of the Chairman were supported by Mr. L. McDonald, on behalf of the Nabawa parishioners, Mr. A. McDonald, on behalf of the Hibernian Society, Rev. Father Lynch (Three Springs). and Rev. Mr. Booth, of the Anglican community, who each paid eloquent tribute to the affection and regard in which the Jubilarian was held. The Chairman read messages of apology from his Lordship the Bishop, Hon. J. M. Drew, M.L.C., and Hon. J. Willcock, M.L.A. Dean Irwin, on rising to respond, was greeted with rounds of applause. He was overcome by the presence of so many people, and he could only thank them from the bottom of his heart. Many of them had come long distances, and, again, many were not of his own Church. He wished to thank, in particular, the speakers. They had said many things in the goodness of their hearts that he would find it very hard to believe. Certainle he had always tried to do his dut-- and this had in

The first dark cloud came from Scandinavia, towards the close of the eighth century, when the Danes made their appearance in Ireland. They came at first as transitory coast marauders, landing and sacking a neighbouring town, church, or monastery. The'.' were particularly efficient seamen. and possessed a fleet that surpassed the neighbouring countries in Hence. after their plunder, power. they took to their ships for safety. Eventually they decided on securing a permanent footing, and so prepare the way for subjugating the whole kingdom. Accordingly, a fleet of 50 ships landed a number of troops in Munster, who pillaged this Province—but were eventually defeated and driven back to their ships. In 812 they made another descent on Munster, but they were again defeated by the brave Munster men In the same year, another body of these pirates landed on the northeast coast. They plundered the famous Abbey of Bangor, and killed 900 monks. Another body landed at Wexford. and laid waste the country, plundering many churches, and burning monasteries. Then they travelled into Limerick, but there they suffered a crushing defeat. In the meantime the Danes kept pouring into the country, possessing themselves mostly of favourable positions at the mouths of rivers, which would afford good shelter for their fleets. This was the origin of Dublin, Drogheda, Waterford, Limerick and Wexford. which are really Danish cities. About 840 there arrivel a monster fleet of these invaders, under the command of a very brave, but ruthless, Dane— the famous, or infamous, Turgesius. The scattered band of robbers were united under his standard. The Cathedral of Clonmacnoise was converted to his own use, as his palace, and from there he carried on the ruthless invasion. The Christian shrines were plundered for their gold and jewels: the schools were dispersed. the books and chronicles burned, and finally the Archbishop of Armagh was seized and brought a captive into the Danish stronghold. Turgesius then laid claim to the Kingship of Ireland, and was proclaimed as such by his adherents. He appointed Danish Provincial Kings and territorial chieftans, and meeting with vigorous opposition, continued to lay waste the country. The armies of Cashel and Leinster fought them in a pitched battle, and left 1,200 of them dead on the field, amongst their dead being the heir to the crown of Denmark, the brave Count Formair. The presence of this member of the Royal Family shows that the Danes were at this time organising a truly national

invasion.

But the Danes soon recovered from this defeat and continued their aggression. This was the deplorable s tate of affairs when, in 846, Malachy ascended the provincial throne of Meath. He was an able ruler and evidently was a brave soldier. He employed his ability and courage to get Turgesius into his power. Turgesius had demanded the daughter of King Malachv in marriage—to which request the King pretended to accede. He sent her to the stronghold of Turgesius, with 15 young men, well armed, and disguised as female attendants. At a favourable moment, finding Turgesius alone with his guards, they overPowered them and delivered him up to their master in Tara. There the captive tyrant was reproached for his many crimes, and then cast into Lough Owe'. where he perished miserably. This stemmed the tide of invasion f or the time, and Malachy was proclaimed High King of Ireland for his valour. Under his rule, the laws were enforced, and churches and monasteries were re-built, and the people for a time o enjoYed peace. The power of the Danes was eventually broken in a few battles, but they still clung to their sea-Ports, where they were either able tO defy efforts at expulsion, or else 9btained permission to remain by paying tribute to the Sovereign. They made themselves at home by pursuit of commerce, in the great maritime cities, which they may be said to have f ounded, Dublin, Waterford. and Urn,rick especially. On the whole they l_reed peacefully with their neighbours. This was the state of affairs when the High King Malachy died in 863. His loss Was great, for after this time the Danes began to reassert themselves, and the old warfare revived. But the reconciliation was very short 'ed. and the Danes continued their

most to prevent the Normans from gaining a foothold, he was unsuccessful, and had to be content with his own That he took provincial kingship. the change with good grace is evident from the fact that thirteen years before he died, he retired to the monasterse of Cong, on the shores of Lough Corrib, where he died. He was buried beside the High Altar in the Cathedral of Clonmacnoise. The period between the destruction of the Danes in 1014 to the coming of the Normans. in 1169, was, however, a period of revival in matters of religion. It will be remembered that Brian Boru, to compensate for the havoc of the Danes, had founded many churches, and re-built many monasteries, and reestablished schools and universities. These institutions received a new lease of life till the coming of the Normans, and some survived down to the "Reformation." It was in this period—the eleventh century—that the illustrious historian His chronlived—Marianuc Scotus. icles. extending down to 1083. excell anything of the kind produced in the Middle Ages. The conversion of the Danes had begun towards the close of the tenth century, and in the eleventh they had flourishing Catholic colonies-the most important being that of Dublin. It was ruled by Danish chief tans —Hasculf, the last of them, having had to submit to the Normans, who ended the Danish rule there after a period of over 300 years. That was in the reign of the saintly Archbishop of Dublin, St. Laurence O'Toole. A flagrant abuse, however, had crept into the Church of Armagh in the eleventh century, when laymen were intruded into the Archbishop's See— though the Sacred Functions were inThis deed performed by a Bishop. abuse was, however, corrected by Celsus, a holy and learned man, who belonged to the family that had monopolised the See. He was consecrated Archbishop of Armagh in 1105, and before he died, in 1132. had the happiness of having restored the ancient discipline. He was succeeded by an equally famous personage in the person of St. Malachv. He rebuilt the monastery of Bangor, and one of the ruins of Cashed—King Cormac's Chapel— owes its origin to his friendship with that King. It is now one of the oldest ecclesiastical buildings in Ireland. He was responsible for securing the independence of the Irish Church—which previously had been subject to Canterbury. This was most important later on, when the "Reformation" came, when there might have been grave danger of the Icish Church suffering the same fate as that of Canterbury. The present hierarchical division of the dioceses, owes its origin, in the main, to this Archiepiscopal See, subject. of course. to Armagh. The number of dioceses was reduced to 24—at a Synod at which there were present 50 Bishops and 3.000 other ecclesiastics. Later in 1148.

THE LATE MR. MICHAEL McDONNELL. The funeral of the late Mr. Michael McDonnell, of ? Barrett-street. Wembley, and late of the Railway Department, took plact at the Catholic Cemetery, Karrakatta, on May 9th. The deceased was born at Victoria in 1860, and came to West Australia 38 years ago. He was well-known in this State as a conductor of Catholic Church choirs. As a young man he was the possessor of a tenor voice of fine quality, and studied singing under Palladini and Alberto Zelman. He was connected with the choir of St. Francis and St. Patrick's, Melbourne, and St. Ignatius', Richmond, and sang in the Melbourne Exhibition Choir of 1888. In West Australia he was first associated with St. Patrick's Choir, Fremantle, and officiated as conductor on the occasion of the ipening of that church. A t different periods he was conductor of St. Mary's Cathedral Choir, Perth. Other Catholic churches at which he acted as conductor were those of Cottesloe, Subiaco, Northam, and the Monastery, North Perth. His enthusiasm for sacred music generally was wonderful, and throughout his lifetime never abated. His services in the organising of choirs, sacred concerts, and other musical activities connection with the Church were in untiring. A Requiem Mass was celebrated at St. Joseph's Church, Subiaco, by the Very Rev. Monsignor Verling, and was largely attended by the relatives and friends of the deceased, and the Sisters of St. John of God's Convent. As a tribute to their old conductor, Gounod's "Messe Solonelle," the late Mr. McDonnell's favorite _Mass, was sung by St. Joseph's Choir, assisted by members of St. Mary's Cathedral and other metropolitan church choirs. Mr. Sydney Smith, conductor of St. Mary's Cathedral Choir, weilded the baton, and Mr. T. Forrestal accompanied on the organ, and during the service played Chopin's "Marche Funebre" and the Dead March in "Saul." At the conclusion of the Requiem, Monsignor Verling spoke feelingly of Mr. McDonnell's fine qualities as a C - atholic layman, and New Catholic Mission Atlas. dwelt on his lifetime ,of service as A combined text book and atlas of a choir-master.

"THE KECORD"

OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF PERTH. Perth. Published Every Thursday, at "The Record Office," 450 Hay Street,

PERTH, SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1932.

The Value of Human Life According to a statement of the Commissioner for Public Health, recently reported in the Press, it would be very desirable to procure an easy mode of death for those who suffer from inIt would be a humane idea to put such incurable diseases. dividuals out of pain. Why should the agony be prolonged when there is no hope of recovery, as, for example, in the lariat stages ot cancer or tuberculosis? Now, no one would disagree with him, in this matter, if there were only the humanitarian side of the question to be considered. All agree that it is a very charitable work to alleviate suffering, but there is a limit in the case of human beings, beyond which one must not go, without violating the fundamental principle upon which the sanctity of human life depends. The whole root of the trouble is, of course, the modern craze of sentimentality in religion. Modern optimists like to think of a God of love, without any of the attributes of justice that Christianity has always attributed to Him. The Bible is not inspired, because it is impossible to reconcile eternal damnation with their idea of a God of love. Likewise, Heaven is the heritage of every class of person, saint or sinner alike, without any reference as to how a person gets there. "Passing over" is only like going from one room to another. All will be forgiven, because there is nothing to forgive. There is no such thing as danger, or devil, but all is The logical result of all this presumption hope and happiness. suicides. It is the same false principle of stampede a be would that underlies the adoption of Euthanasia. Nobody would endure the martyrdom of cancer, for instance, if he really believed that in any case the mere fact of death would instantly introduce the soul to perfect happiness. Now, of course, Catholics held the complete solution of the problem of life, which keeps a man sane, and not some single fragment of it which may drive him to suicide. A Catholic does not kill himself—or allow any other one to do it for him for that matter—because he is not so sure about Heaven, as to think it due to him in any case. He knows that there is question of deserving Conscience makes a coward of him, but it is a very it or not. creditable cowardice. He believes that a man may be fitter for Heaven because he endures pain like a man, and that a martyr to cancer may be a hero, just as some of the Saints were martyrs to the rack or the stake. -Faith in a future life, and hope of future happiness. and belief in a God of love, must be taken along with the other Catholic doctrines about duty to God, the necessity of sacrifice ,and of vigilance against the powers of darkness. It is a mean between the two extremes of presumption and despair. Moreover, a man does not possess ownership of his life, or 3f the life of another fellow-man. It is God Who is the owner of life, though sometimes He gives authority to the State or to' individuals, as in the case of capital punishment or self-defence. But the State could never take the life of an innocent man, nor could the person concerned give any authority to the State to do so. It is only when a man is considered to have forfeited his right to live, because of his misdeeds, that the State imposes the supreme penalty. There is no question here of a man voluntarily yielding up his right to live, as a privilege, but of forfeiting his life as a -penalty. The taking of innocent life, even in cases of mortal illness, c annot be justified in any conceivable circumstance.

Sacred Heart Schools Past Pupils' Association. A Bridge evening will be held by the above Association on Tuesday, June 7, in the Parish Hall, Highgate Hill, at 8 p.m. Judging by the interest aroused in the Association by the very successful Reunion held recently, this function should prove a great success. A very enthusiastic committee, headed by Miss May Holman, M.L.A., is working industriously for the evening, and hopes that all members and their friends will be present. Reservations may be Made by ringing B8014. With a view to drawing up a programme of further activities for the Association, a general meeting has been called for June 21, at 8 p.m., in the Parish Hall. Many suggestions have been received, including: (1) Debating Club; (2), Dramatic Society; (3) Monthly Luncheon in Temiale Court; (4) Choral Society; (5), Netball Club. Any further suggestions are welcomed by the committee, who hope to see one hundred per cent. attendance of members at this general meeting.

ELEVEN The result of the ballot was as iollows:—Re-elected: President, Aileen O'Callaghan; vice-president, Mary Shaw; secretary, Edna Hopkins; assistant secretary, Kathleen O'Meara; treasurer, Eileen Carrick. Committee: E. Flood, C. Williamson, E. Dunn, A. Locke, M. O'Meara, M. Moy, and R. Chappell. The re-appointment of Aileen OC41laghan as President was, as Father Prendiville afterwards said, a foregone conclusion, and was received with acclamation.. The business of the morning being over, Father Prendiville, the Chaplain of the Association, addressed the girls. He was very gratitied to see so many present, despite the unpleasantness of the weather. It was a most inspiring sight to see such numbers approach the altar rails. An Association with many activities, as theirs way, it must always be remembered that the central function of all, the very kernel of the Association, was the General Communion, all other spiritual treats, and social events taking second place. Each annual General Communion would be a link in the chain that would bind them through life to the old Alma Mater. The purpose of the Association was to enable the Chaplain and the Sisters to keep in touch with all old pupils, to bring the girls together socially, and to create a Catholic spirit. They should be very proud of their old Alma Mater, which was the pioneer school of the West, and he hoped they would always live up to the standard of principles and morals which the Sisters had conscientiously instilled into their minds in childhood, and by so doing bring honour upon the grand old institution which had nurtured them in their infancy. Father concluded his address with the inevitable touch of humour—that he had been told that "short speeches and long drinks were to be the order of the day." The girls then left the "banqueting hall," some to chat to various Sisters, others to dance in the infant room below to the music of Doreen D'Arcy, and many to visit old haunts and revive old memories. The Association extends its sincere thanks to Mrs. Williamson, for her generous assistance, and to all who placed cars at their disposal.

Our Appeal closes on June 30. As the time draws near, we are hoping to see many more names added to our donation list. The Committee ladies have organised several entertainments, etc., to swell the funds. Now these will soon come to an end. In the meantime, we appeal to those who have not yet helped.

The priests whom we see at our altars are necessary to make the sacrifice ours and visible; but it has ever been the teaching of the Catholic Church that Christ, as "priest forever according to the Order of Melchisdech," is always the priest of the Mass.

THE POWER OF MARY. She is the Mother of Him who was begotten of the Father before all ages, and who is acknowledged by angels and men to be Lord of all. Wouldst thou know how much nobler is this Virgin than any of the heavenly powers? They stand before Him with fear and trembling, veiling their faces with their wings, but she offereth humanity to Him to whom she gave birth. Through her we obtain the remission of sins. Hail, then, 0 Mother, heaven, damsel, maiden, throne, adornment, and glory, and foundation of our Church! Cease not to pray for us to thy Son and Our Lord Jesus Christ.— St. John Chrysostorn.

No less than 43,623 soldiercs of the old Swedish army were engaged on the execution of this work between the years of 1815 and 1832, which at that time was considered .a great engineering feat.

Why the Kookaburra Laughs HAVE A LAUGH WITH HIM

If a church be on fire, why has an organ the smallest chance of escape? Because an engine cannot play on it. By a printer's unfortunate mistake a certain well-known vocalist was described as "the chief terror of Covent Garden opera." Wife, in a telegram from a spa—"In four weeks I have reduced my weight by half. How long shallI stay?" Husband, writing back: "Another lour weeks." T wo old salts were strolling along a wharf and halted before a new snowwhite yacht. "Well, look at that name, Bill!" said one. "Ain't that the rummiest way to spell fish—P-s-y-c-h-e?" Referring to George Washington, on American said to a Scotsman, 'He was a great and good man, sir. A lie never passed his lips." "Weel," the Scot replied, "I presume he talked through his nose like the rest o' ye!" A gentleman was put sorely out of patience by some blunder of a new groom. "Look here!" he cried in anger. "I won't have things done in this way! Do you think I'm a fool?" "Sure, sir," said the groom, "I can't say, sir. I only came here yesterday!" Smith: "There are two periods in a man's life when he is most interested in his personal appearance." Atkins: "When are they?" Smith: "One is at twenty, when he watches the hair coming out of his upper lip, and the other is at forty, when he knows that the hair is coming out on the top of his head!" The following is by no means new, but it is good enough to bear repetition. The club at which it occurred will be easily recognised. A member whose umbrella was missing caused to be posted up a notice asking the "nobleman" who had taken it to restore it to the owner. The membership of the club, it was added, being restricted to noblemen and gentlemen, the umbrella could obviously only have been approppriated by a "nobleman!" The following story is told of DocNorman Macleod, who was very popular with his parishioners. The minister of the next parish to Doctor Macleod was sent for to visit a working man who was dangerously ill. After he had seen the sufferer he had a conversation with his wife, in the course of which he said, "Do you attend St. Luke's Church?" "Na, na," the woman replied; "we gang to Norman's." "Well, thats all right; you couldn't go to a better! But why did you send for me?" "Bless ye, sir, did ye think we wad risk Norman wi' typhus fever?" "As I was sitting in a crowded tramcar coming home to-night, ' said Par-

ker, "a woman entered and stood almost exactly in front of me." "And you gut up and gave her your seat?" queried Parker's wife. "No—another fellow forestalled me. But I had to wait five minucei for him!" "And you have really met the cornposer?" said a young girl onbe to an old man to whom she had bzen introduced at a dinner-party and with whom she had been discussing music. "Yes," said the old man, "I met him once." "How grand! how very romantic! And will you please tell me what he had to say?" "Well, he didn't have very much to say. He was eating spaghetti at the time, and you know that doesn't facilitate conversation!" A millionaire of the Far West who had made a "pile- in prospecting for silver, wished to do something for his native State, and so erected a fine theatre at Denver. When it was nearly finished he found a man painting a portrait on the proscenium. "Who's that?" he inquired. "That's Shakespeare." "Shakespeare? Don't know him! Who was he?" "He wrote plays." - What did he do for Denver?" "Nothing; he could not have heard ,f it." "What have you put him there for, then? Paint him out and put in my face!" T wo brothers were being entertained by a manufacturer who was anxious to please then in the hope of securing orders for goods. But talk drifted away from trade topics. "Do you like Omar Khayyam?" asked the host, trying to make conversation. "Pretty well, but I prefer Chianti," was the reply. Nothing more was said on the subject until the brothers were on their way home. "Bill,- said the younger brother, "why can't you leave things that you don't understand to me? Omar Khayyam ain't a wine—it's a cheese!" Jack was home on furlough after a long voyage, and "old granny- wanted to hear of the wonders of the deep. "Well, granny," said Jack, "the first thing that surprised me was the flying fish." "Flying fish!" exclaimed the old "Now, Jack, don't try to gull lady. Your old granny with such cock-andbull stories. Tell me something true." "Well, then," continued Jack, "we had to cast anchor in a calm crossing the Red Sea, and when we hauled the anchor up we found one of Pharaoh's chariot wheels attached to it!"
