Catholic News from Everywhere SERBIAN NOTABLE IN IRELAND. One of the most striking personalities who attended the Eucharistic Congress in Ireland was Archbishop Nicholas, Primate of Serbia. His See, on the borders of the Adriatic, comprises 40 per cent. of the population of 13 millions, and has experienced all the horrors of war, famine, and pestilence. To alleviate the sufferings of the prisoners and the starving people of Seibia, he willingly devoted his entire patrimony, for he comes of an aristocratic family. In recognition of his unselfish efforts, the Holy Father sent him two autographed letters of thanks during toe ar commending his heroic and charitable work, and he has been decorated by all the nations of Europe A profound for the same cause. scholar, he has expert knowieuge of no iewer than nine languages, including Attending the different secIrish. tions of the Congress, he everywhere spoke of Ireland with strung affection, and proudly claims many friends in lreiand and Scotland. POPE AND CRIME OF BLASPHEMY. An "Anti-Blasphemy Week" has just concluded in the little town of Torpignattara, near Rome. Everywhere the eye of the visitor and the citizen alike has been caught by posters warning them of the evil effects of blasphemy on the morale of the nation and of the individual, .ind of the offence it caused to religion. Every day special Masses have been celebrated in the parish church, and every evening distinguished speakers from Rome addressed large and earnest audiences in the Piazza on the need for eradicating the scourge of blasphemy from the nation In a letter to the Central Anti-Blasphemy Committee the Pope wrote: "Whoever engages in the task of eradicating from the midst of society the enormous crime of blasphemy is not only doing a most beneficent work fot the sanctity of religion, but also for the dignity of civil life and the prosperity of the peoples."

MEMORIAL TO T. P. O'CONNOR. A Memorial Cross, an enlarged replica of the Cross of Cong, has been erected over the grave of T. P. O'Con nor, in St. Mary's Cemetery, Kensal Green. It is made of copper, and the artist has wonderfully reproduced the details of the famous original Cross in Galway. Archbishop Downey, of Liv erpool, suggested the inscription on the ''In memorial, which is as follows: memory of T. P. O'Connor, oratoi, statesman, journalist, Irish patriot, tribune of the people.

A PRIEST JOURNALIST. Celebrations have taken place at Beirut, the capital of Syria, in honour of the twenty-fifth anniversary as a For journalist of Father Malouf, S.J. f orty-four years this highly gifted French priest has been a professor in the fine University at Beirut, and for twenty-five years he has been the clever editor of the Arabian Catholic Father Malout's paper, "Al Baehir." journalistic anniversary has been the occasion of much eulogium on his zeal and vast literary knowledge by his numerous friends in the fai off land in which he has given such valuable service. FATHER JOHN RYAN, S.J. Father John Ryan, S.J., who was a London schoolmaster before entering the Society of Jesus, when more than 50 years of age, died recently at Waterford, in his 81st. year. Father Ryan was a native of Sallybank, Co. Clare. and studied at Queen's College, Cork, and took the B.A. of the University of He became a schoolmaster, Ireland. and was conducting a private school with about 100 pupils in the Maida Vale district of London when he applied for admission into the Society. In 1902 he began his novitiate at Manresa. He was then over 50, one of the oldest, though not the oldest, of novices that have been received there. In consequence of his age and previous studies, some departures from the usual course were made, so that he might be ordained as soon as possible. While he was a theologian at St. Benno's in 1906, his tongue gave him trouble and cancer was feared to be present. Operations

Besides the work in the church, he attended five hospitals and two nursing Father Ryan was attached homes. to Farm Street from 1920 to 1927. Foi the remaining years of his life, spent at Manresa, Petworth, Twyford Abbey, and Waterford, he was an invalid. "FREE FROM ALL SELF-SEEKING" The Scottish Benedictine Abbey of Fort Augustus benefits largely by the death of the late Mr. John Harrison (a nephew of Lord Clinton), who appointed the Abbey residuary legatee of his The testator's broentire fortune. ther brought an action to dispute the validity of the will; but the case was settled out of Court, the Abbey agreeing to pay the plaintiff and his family a certain sum in settlement of all claims. Lord Merrivale, in dismissing t he special jury, paid a high tribute to the "very great propriety and prudence, free from all self-seeking or personal interest," which the Benedictines had evinced in a difficult and perplexing case. THE CHURCH'S UNIVERSALITY. Telling the story of his conversion, Mar Ivanois, the Jacobite convert Archbishop to the Faith, said: "It was the Blessed Sacrament that had brought him to the True Church. After years of heartfelt prayer and study and seeking after truth, he came to the conviction that the Catholic Church was The institution which Our Lord came Referring to the Syroto establish." Malabar rite, his Excellency said its liturgy was that of St. James the Apostle, the first Bishop of Jerusalem Holy Communion was given to adults under two kinds, bread and wine, while in the case of children, immediately after 13aptism, it was given under the form of wine only. The principle of Communion under one form was established in the Orient, which showed the universality of the Church. SAINTS' RELICS BROUGHT TO IRELAND. Bishop Heylen, President of the Permanent Committee of the International Eucharist Congress, brought from Belgium to Ireland the relics of Irish saints who had died in Belgium. The relics were presented to the Archbishop of Dublin, and were solemnly enshrined by Cardinal Van Roey, Archbishop of Malines, in the Chapel of the Benedio tine Priory at Glenstal, Co. Limerick. The Archbishop of Cashel (Dr. Harty) and many priests attended the cereThe saints, Bishop Heylen mony. mentioned, in connection with the relics were St. Bertuim, Bishop, who founded a church and abbey near Namur, St. Foelan, St. Fridigand, St. Fury, St. Forannan, Bishop of Armagh and Abbot, and St. Monon, hermit. THE LATE KING MANOEL. In asking prayers for the repose of the soul of the late King Manoel, Cardinal Bourne paid a warm tribute to For more than the deceased King. twenty years King Manoel lived in the Diocese of Westminster, and during that period he had the friendship of "I knew him inCardinal Bourne. timately," said the Cardinal, "and I can bear witness to his profound faith and deep devotion. He was filially attached to the Apostolic See. The last great consolation of his life was the time which he passed recently in Rome, assisting at the Offices of Holy Week in St. Peter's, and being present both on Holy Thursday and Easter Sunday at the Holy Father's Mass, receiving Holy Communion from his hands. His Holiness received him then in a long, affectionate audience. He was devotedly attached to his own country. From many conversations I knew how the welfare of Portugal and, above all, the wellbeing of the Catholic Church in Portugal, took precedence in his mind and heart of any personal dynastic, consideration." AN ORANGEMAN'S IMPERTINENCE. An attempt to haul down the Papal flag from the masthead of a steamer lying in the Queen's Dock, Whitehaven ( England led to an exchange of blows. Two vessels, the Palm, of Newry, and t he Ashfield, of Liverpool, were preparThe ing to load coal for Ireland. Palm arrived flying the Papal flag at the masthead, and while her crew were

A fight followed, and the Papal flag was restored to its former position. "EX-NUN" REPENTS. Katherine Carroll, whom the Amen can Protestant Defence League has advertised as a "member for 14 years of a cloistered Order of the Roman Church," has retracted her false statements, made in lectures concerning the Sisters of the Precious Blood, and confessed, in an affidavit, that she has never been a member of that Order.

others we must attribute to wilfulness or caprice. Her Beauty is admired by all, and is thus described by Viola:— 'Tis beauty truly blent, whose red and white Nature's own sweet and cunning hand laid on." (I., v., 263-4.) and again: "I see you what you are, you are too proud; But, if you were the devil, you are fair." (I., v., 276-7.) The Duke prizes it above rank and :.ortune, and goes into poetic rapture over it: "The parts that fortune hath bestow'd upon her, Tell her,I hold as giddily as fortune; But 'tis that miracle and queen of gems That nature pranks her in attracts my Soul." (II., iv., 84-7.) .1nd again: "Here comes the countess: now heaven walks on earth." (V., i., 101., She Inspires Respect. Up to the period of the opening of the play, she has evidently lived a life of noble self-restraint and gained an honourable name with persons of all classes. The Captain speaks of her as "a virtuous maid.' Sebastian is struck with the manner in which she can "sway her house, command her followers' : "Take and give back affairs and their despatch With such a smooth. discreet and stable bearing As I perceive she does." (IV., iii., 18-20) Even when she loses her heart to the page and no longer "owns herself," she preserves her dignity. Earnest in her appeals, beseeching as she is, she never altogether loses her respect for herself, and as a consequence she never forfeits She humbles her pride, and ours will do anything to win Viola's love, provided she may keep her honour safe:

Her Love. Comes to her as a kind of punishment for her coldness. She herself calls it "a most extracting frenzy," and, indeed, it savours more of madness than of ans-thigs else we know of. She is fully conscious of the unreasonableness of it, and attempts to fight against it, hut finds it irresistible. She is the last person one would have expected to "fall in love at first sight," or upon such slender grounds. But for once she is mastered by a greater passion -than her pride. She would have concealed her love (as Viola did hers), but her control over herself Is not equal to the task. "A murderous guilt shows not itself more soon Than love that would seem hid; love's night is noon." i., 163-4) That she does strive against this mastering passion is evident from her words: "I have said too much unto a heart of stone, And laid mine honour too unchary

' (III., iv., 221-5) The futility of struggling she expresses in language strong enough in itself, but acquiring additional force on the lips of one who was habitually sober and careful in her conversation: "A friend like thee might bear my soul to hell." iv.. 23g .' "Contrasted with the deep, silent, patient love of Viola for the Duke. we have the ladylike wilfulness of Olivia; and her sudden passion, or rather fancy, for the disguised page, takes so beautiful a colouring of poetry and sentiment, that we do not think her forward. Olivio is like a princess of romance. and has all the privileges of one; she Is, like Portia, high borne and high bred, mistress over her servants—but not like Portia. 'queen o'er herself.' She has never in her life been opposed: the first contradiction. therefore, rouses all the woman in her and turns a caprice into a headlong passion. . . . The distance of rank which separates the countless from the youthful page—the real sex of Viola—the dignified elegance of Olivia's deportment, except where passion gets the better of her pride—her consistent coldness towards the Duke— the description of that 'smooth. discreet, and stable bearing' with which she rules her household—her generous care for her steward Malvolia, in the midst of her own distress—all these circumstances raise Olivia in our fancy, and render her caprice for the page a source of amusement and interest, not a subject of reproach."—Mrs. Jameson. "Olivia is manifestly somewhat inclined to have her own way. But then it must also be acknowledged that her way is pretty apt to be right. This wilfulness or something that borders upon it, is shown alike in her impracticability to the Duke's solicitations, and in her pertinacity in solociting his messenger. And it were well worth the while to know, if we could, how one so perverse in certain spots can manage notwithstanding to be so agreeable as a whole. Then, too, if it seems rather naughty •in her that she does not give the Duke a better chance to try his power upon her, she gets pretty well paid in falling a victim to the eloquence which her obstinacy stirs up. Nor is it altogether certain whether her conduct springs from a pride that will not listen where her fancy is not taken, or from an unambitious modesty that prefers not to 'match above her degree.' "—Hudson "As we see her at the very outset, we fear from her bearing that she is a woman of unusual energy. . . . She is an august lady of free and serious mind; not of a humour to bear the

jests of a messenger, but thoroughly capable of thoughtfully receiving the significant thrusts of her fool; not sufficiently masculine to dismiss with more than words, her dissolute relatives who beset her house, but carefully considerate of maintaining order by her puritanical steward and of ruling over her house in a prudent and sober manner. '—Gervinus. "The love of Olivia, wilful as it is, is not in the slightest degree repulsive. With the old stories before him, nothing but the refined delicacy of Shakespeare's conception of the female character could have redeemed Olivia from approaching to the anti-feminine But as it is we pity her, and we rejoice with her."—Knight. Maria, Maria is the spirit of mischief personified. Her great pleasure in life is to see others discomfited, and this pleasure is intensified if she herself may be the cause of the discomfiture. Her function, like that of Comedy, is to expose and render ridiculous the faults and vanities and ignorance of her fellow-creatures. She unmasks the vanity of Malvolio, reveals the depths of the ignorance and folly of Sir Andrew, and acts as a spur to the boisterous humour of Sir Toby or the wit of the Clown. She is oi Small Stature. We could hardly imagine a tall or The smallest stately-framed Maria. insects Are those which are apt to trouble us most, and Maria, pert and saucy and roguish, not infrequently reminds us of the nimble insects whose sole purpose in living seems to be to annoy References to her small mankind. stature are sufficiently numerous to keep this characteristic constantly before our minds. Viola ironically calls her Olivia's "giant," Sir Toby says, "Good-night Penthesilea." and again, "Here comes the little villain." and "Here comes the youngest wren of nine." She Delights in Teasing. No one is safe from her mischievous wit. She so befogs the feeble mind of Sir Andrew, and makes him appear so ridiculous, that Sir Toby exclaims: "0 knight, thou lackest a cup of canary: when did I see thee so put down?" (I., iii., S7.) She tries to practise upon the Clown, hut in him she meets with her match, for though she wins commendation from him for her wit, she obtains little other satisfaction out of him. Neither does she succeed in drawing Viola, but in this case she was perhaps deterred by the presence of her Mistress Olivia Above all things she (I., v., 101-3). delights in teasing Malvolio; he Is her Bete Noire. She has made him her study, and knows him through and through: she knows how to turn his failings to account so well that when she practjses her jest upon him he falls with the utmost readiness into the net she has prepared for him. "For Monsieur Malvolio, let me alone with him: if I do not gull him into a nayword. and make him a common recreation, do not think I have wit enough to lie straight in my bed; I know I can do it." (II.. iii., 152,6.) She is as good as her word, and carries out every item of her programme. Then, with what gusto does she watch the success of her practical joke! She dogs him "like his murderer." With what infectious merriment she communicates to her partners in the plot the successful progress of its deeviopment! "Sport royal," she calls it, and renders it such to every one except Malvolio himself. She taunts him, and torments him, and goads him to frenzy without ever the smallest feeling of remorse. The angrier he becomes the more she rejoices (III., iv.) . She gives him not a moment's respite. "Nay, pursue him now, lest the device take air and taint." (III., iv., 140-1.) (To be Continued

Fremantle C.B.C. Debating Society The business of the meeting was set speeches. The first speaker, Mr. E. McCarthy, gave a short account of the State railway system. He said that t he fact that the State railways were owned by the Government had much to do with their being an unprofitable concern. Most of Canada's railways were privately owned, and the general and economic success of the same ought to be a sufficient proof that privatelyowned railways are the best in every respect. Mr. Matison was Mr. McCarthy's chief critic. Mr. D. Sheridan spoke on the Ottawa Conference. He said the Empire should act as one big family. Wheat dumping by Russia should be prohibited, and all tariffs on Empire goods should be abolished. These are subjects of importance which will be discussed at Ottawa. Mr. K. Sheridan's subject was on the German crisis. The strife between the strong political parties has caused considerable bloodshed, and the whole of Germany is in a state of unrest. The only way to restore stability was to adopt the Hitler plan, and suppress Communism. Everyone was awaiting Sunday, July 31, when the elections will take place. Upon the result of these elections depend the destinies of the German nation. Mr. O'Donnell protested that Mr. Sheridan concentrated more upon Herr Hitler than upon the German crisis Mr. Heindrichs pointed out that Mr. Sheridan did not refer to the cause of the crisis, notably the Lausanne Conference. Mr. J. Pearce 'poke on "Should the Gold Bonus Continue." The gold bonus greatly encourages prospecting. If it were removed, many men would be thrown out of employment. Owing to the low market value of Australia's primary products, she has to export gold as interest payments. Capitalists will not risk much money in mining prospects, and the extra bonus makes it possible to produce gold in payable quantities. Mr. N. Ryan, on "The Poetry of Wordsworth," said that after the obscure poets of the eighteenth century, Wordsworth stood out as one simple in diction and expression. He was an ardent lover of nature, and looked upon inanimate bodies as living forces. He was the inaugurator of the new era of poetry of the eighteenth century He was a true patriot, as seen in "London, 1802." His life was, for the most part, uneventful, and therefore there is not the action in his poems as in some others, notably those of Shelley and Keats. Mr. Callaghan warmly congratulated Mr. Ryan, and stated that his speech showed a genuine appreciation and intimacy with the finer works in Enguish literature. Mr. B. Rider spoke on "The Benefits of a Literary and Debating Society Societies are of many types, but all are distinctly popular. Reading of a subject gives one impressions, but animated discussion is far superior. Intelligent debaters make intellectual citizens. A person will, in later life, be able to take his place in society, and he will not be bashful in putting forward any opinion of his on a subject. A good debating society is invaluable to the younger generation. Mr. McCusker complimented Mr. Rider on his speech. The acting chair. man (Mr. T. Fuller) then closed the meeting.

THE CATHOLIC BALL Lancers Danced by Twenty-Two Debutantes Failure is the blight of enthusiasm and the genitor of inactivity. Success is the just recompense of enthusiastic toil and an incentive to nobler deeds. With these remarks we preface our account of the Annual Catholic Debutante Ball which, held in the Y.A.L. Ballroom, on Wednesday, August 3rd., was an outstanding success in the record number present, in the very complete arrangements, and in the brilliancy of the function. The Organisation. The organisation of the Ball was in the hands of a committee comprised of members from the Catholic Young Ladies' Club and Catholic Young Men's Society. This combination sprang from a deep-rooted conviction that all true progress must have its beginning, its continuance, and culmination in united action. It has stood the acidtest of practice. The success attained demonstrates its utility and indicates A systematic distriits possibilities.

tend our heartiest congratulations and wish them well in society. The debutantes were: Miss B. Kingsbury, white satin and lace, with pretty posy of violets surrounded by mauve tinted erica and then veronica. Miss S. Kingsbury, white satin, with lace coatee and posy of pink carnations, stocks and gladiolo and agert urn. Miss G. Warner wore white satin, and carried a charming bouquet of red carnations and little bell flowers. Miss Dorothy McCarthy wore a handsome gown of ivory taffetas and silver lace in bands, built picture frock style, and with a bustle bow, with posy of pale rosebuds. Miss Molly Wagner, handsome gown of white satin, with bouquets of snowflakes. Miss Nancy D'Arey. white taffetas and lace, with bouquet of pink carnations and ageratum.

The young men who so ably partnered the debutantes were: Messrs. R. Wallace, B. Flanagan, N. Cosgrave, J. Grace, R. McMullen, R. Frazer, F. Cornelius, K. Woods, J. Moynihan, J. Hopkins, T. Hall, G. McMullen, K. Somers. T . M' cIntyre, D. Peterkin, J. Seaventy, P. Maslin, B. Maslin, J. Dominish, J. Boucher, and B. Lannigan. The Guests. Among the many present were: Mrs. J. P.

the stations, otherwise most willing, were unable to meet our request. How. ever, next year! A Word of Thanks. In conclusion, we wish to express our deepest gratitude to His Grace the Archbishop, whose keen interest in the activities of our societies was clearly manifested by his coming, at a considerable amount of inc2onvenience, the Catholic Ball to receive the debutantes. We thank Mrs. J. P• Maxwell, hostess at the Ball, to whose genial disposition and kind consideration for all the social success of the ball is to be attributed. Not less grateful are we to Miss Mercia Scott, w hose genius and experience enabled her to train such a large number of debutantes with perfect ..a,e, and whose presentation merited stieh favourable comments in our daily papers. Neally we thank Misses Edna Spark, Bonnie Sinclair and partners for their delightful exhibitions, as also -1'• other kind

His Grace Arrives. At 8.45 p.m., His Grace, accompanied by the Very Rev. Father Prencliville, A dm., Fathers McMahon. Sullivan. and Winston, arrived to receive the debutantes. He was met at the entrance by Mrs. and Mr. J. P. Maxwell, and sat watching the dancers for some time in a handsome high-backed chair brought into the ballroom for the occasion. He expressed his delight at seeing such a large patronage, and appreciation of the artistic taste of the Young Men's Society. many of whose members had worked hard that day in making the hall as attractive as possible for the occasion. Had they been allowed to use the hammer and nails freely, they would have transformed it into veritable paradise. Notwithstanding restrictions, the hall did The walls were hung look beautiful. with long fringes of paper streamers, in the striking combination of scarlet, green, white, gold and violet.

Unanimously white frocked, they made a pretty contrast with the black and white of their partners' dress, and when ringed with a crowd of gaily-clad onlookers it was a striking picture from the balcony. At the close of the measure they broke into a waltz. To each and all we ex-

Supper was served in the large supper room of the hall, where the same striking combination of colours was witnessed as in the ballroom. The tables were decorated with Geraldton wax blossom, daffodils, jonquils, and sweet peas. Mrs. O'Connell, of the R.S.L. Dining Rooms, was responsible for the catering. Mrs. O'Connell was the recipient of much favourable comment during the night, and the beautiful supper and efficient service she gave merits our highest praise. The only rival the supper had was Miss D'Arcv's Orchestra, which excelled its long established and well' merited popularity by a most deligntful programme.

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

PERTH, SATURDAY, AUGUST 13, 1932.

The Drysdale River Mission In a report issued recently by the Chief Protector of Aborigines, the estimated aboriginal population of Western Australia, up to June last, was about twenty-six thousand, including thirteen thousand full bloods and three thousand half-castes, with ten thousand aborigines who are outside the influence of civilisation. The majority of these natives belong to the Kimberley region, which contains about one-third of the total aboriginal population of the Continent. After the advent of the white man, the original population became depleted in number, and moved into the interior away !-rom the dangers of the new corners. After some years public opinion was directed to the cruel way the natives were treated, and the result was a system of protection. But notwithstanding this, the race continued to die out, until to-day the number of full-blooded natives is about 60,000. The first effort to assist the natives was made by a party of Benedictines, who established the New Norcia Mission in 1846. They were able to preserve the blacks from the contamination of lhe white man's vices, and the result is seen to-day in the prosperity and happiness of a large colony of full-blooded aboriginals in the vicinity. But it was necessary to follow the natives to the North-West, in order to reap the most beneficial results. The Drysdale River Mission was founded from New Norcia 23 years ago—the object being to cater for the spiritual and temporal welfare of the aboriginals. Since then the Benedictine missionaries have laboured indefatigably in the cause, and with very gratifying results. The ravages of disease had been taking a very heavy toll of the population, before the missionaries stepped in to stem the current and minimise its disastrous effects. The late. Bishop Torres visited the place in 1906, and the Mission was established three years later. In August of last year. three Sisters—Oblates of St. Benedict—arrived at the Mission, and their presence has been of invaluable aid to the Mission 4

•

The influence of the Drysdale Mission extends to four tribes throughout the Western Kimberleys. Tribal territory is marked out by definite geographical boundaries, and membership of the tribe is determined according to place of birth. According to the i.atives, there are as many nations as there are tribal territories. There are, therefore, four "nations" under the Drysdale jurisdiction. The first lies along the coast on the North, a strip thirty miles wide and 200 miles long, between Cape Londonderry and Cambridge Gulf, upon which stands Wyndham. It was in this territory the German aviators were rescued. The second tribe occupies the territory along the coast to the West—in the opposite direction—extending from Cape Londonderry to Napier, Broome Bay—a distance of about 200 miles. The third tribe inhabits the territory to the South, about 30 miles inland and beyond the Sir Frederick Ranges, while the fourth, and most powerful tribe of all, governs the territory to the South-East. Thanks to the patient and constant efforts of the missionaries. they have gained the will of these aborigines in such a way and have changed their wild instincts into human habits to such an extent, that no danger whatever now exists, where a few years ago nobody could live without risk of life. But by far the most beneficial result of the missionaries' labours, is the spread of the Gospel among these pagan tribes. A similar Apostolic work is carried out for the natives south of this Mission by the Pallotine Fathers, at Beagle Bay, Broome, and Lombadino. Torres, the great explorer of the 17th. century. has earned lasting fame for opening up the Eastern doorway of Australia for mariners, but his fame rests on a far less stable foundation than that of the heroic missionaries who have opened up the opposite side of the Continent to the Gospel and to God.

THE ARCHDIOCESE His Grace the Archbishop administered the Sacrament of Confirmation at St. Joseph's Orphanage, Clontarf, on Sunday. Fifty boys were tastefully presented by the Brothers. His Grace was accompanied by Very Rey. Dean Brennan, and Rev. Father Phelan and Rev. Father Kelly.

tic Congress in Dublin, and will be the first arrival after that celebration. On the occasion of the solemnity of the Feast of St. Alphonsus, His Grace the Archbishop celebrated Pontifical High Mass on Sunday at the Redemptorist Monastery.

Busselton Notes On Friday night a most successful social and dance was held, in aid of the new church. The people of Busselton and the surrounding districts attended in great numbers, and filled the hall to v erflowing. Last Sunday, at Quindalup, where ' ass can only be celebrated on the M first Sunday of each month, Father Kenny made arrangements with some of the ladies of the district to assemble the children together each week for systematic religious instruction in the natechism. On Sunday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, a general meeting of the Children of Mary took place. A very large number of new members were received into the Sodality of Our Lady, and a new president and council elected. The Sodality is now placed on a strong basis. Father Kenny presided at the meeting. He explained the origin of t he Sodality, the advantages and privileges of membership—its example and influence for good in a parish. He exhorted the members to take Mary as their model—to copy her virtues into their lives, and to strive to be always true children of Our Blessed Lady. At the evening devotions, a meeting of the Sacred Heart Confraternity was held Presidents and prefects of guilds were elected, and new members enrolled. Father Kenny spoke in impressive words on devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and exhorted the members of the Confraternity to regular and constant attendance at the monthly meetings,. A t the Mass in Busselton on Sunday, Father Kenny referred to the consolation and edification it gave him to see the good people of Busselton and the surrounding country come in such great numbers to the evening clevotione—not only on Sunday evenings, but every evening during the week. Devotions are given every evening of the week at 7.30, consisting of Visit to the Blessed Sacrament, Rosary, and Litany of our Blessed Lady. Each evening the church is nearly filled to seating capacity. The people of Busselton are to be congratulated on their splendid choir and congregational singing. The next social and dance, in aid of the new church, will be held within the Mrs. Hayes is orcoming fortnight. ganiser. The good people of Quindalup are also organising some secret surprise to help the same object. Busselton Church may well be proud of its beautifully toned bell, which calls its scattered people to prayer at the Angelus three times each day—morning, at midday, and evening—reminding them of the great Mystery of the Incarnation—the mystery of God's infinite Love—God becoming man for our salvation and redemption.

A few long-handled toasting forks should form part of the equipment, for with these, even the meat could be toasted by holding it over the flames, and we all know how delicious toast is when made in front of the embers. It is such fun, too, preparing meals in this way, and Potatoes may everyone .can join in. be roasted in the ashes. A saucepan with a handle like a billy-can is invaluable as a part of the camping gear, for such a lot can be packed into it, and then it can be used for making an appetising stew.

Buttonholes are being worn again in the daytime, and here, too, woollen and silk flowers are quite as fashionable as the natural ones. The clever girl can make bunches to suit each of her frocks. Scarves are bec'oming more and more gaily-coloured and intricate in design: Rainbow stripes are very smart. ann often the beret is fashioned on the same lines. It does not seem to matter what the dress is made of, there is no attempt to make the colours of the scarf tone with it. In these days of depression, it helps considerably if bright colours are worn, they having a stimulating effect on the mind, while dull blacks and dark greys can be really depressing. Faded colours can have a like effect so, when choosing a material, always endeavour to get one whose colours are guaranteed fast. For evening wear in the summer nothing is so lovely and cool-looking as white, but even this has its shades.

Little kilted frills are being much used for trimming day dresses, and these appear even on the hem, giving the frock a longer look. On the bodice, too, they appear as if outlining a yoke, and tney are also added to the short sleeves. One of the newer styles has an apron effect edged with a 1/ inch wide frill of the same or contrasting material.

McOORMACK—OMEARA WEDDING. An interesting wedding was celebrated at St. Joseph's Church. Trayning, recently. when Miss Mary O'Meara and Mr. Tom McCormack were united in the holy bonds of Matrimony. Both are well and favourably known throughout the district. Mr. McCormack is a good all-round sport, and an estimable citizen. For the past three Years he has been captain of the Trayning Golf Club. Miss O'Meara is equally wellknown in sport, and socially her unassuming disposition has endeared her to all with whom she came in contact. The prettily decorated church was filled to overflowing, when shortly after 4 p.m.. the appointed time, the bride, attended by Miss Kath. O'Meara (sister), and Miss Myrtle Myall, as bridesmaids, walked up the aisle on the arm of her father, presenting a striking picture. She was charmingly attired in a long white satin frock. made on long straight lines, and fully flared, with lace coatee and rucking, and an embroidered veil held in place with a coronet of orange blossom, and she carried a magnificent bouquet of

East Fremantle Concert On Thursday evening, August 4, an e xcellent concert was presented in the Convent School Room. King-street, to a very large audience, the proceeds being in aid of the East Fremantle Stall at the forthcoming "Centenary Fair." The major portion of the programme was supplied by the pupils of St. Joseph's Convent School, and their efforts, both vocal and elocutionary. reflected very creditably on the good nuns, who had worked untiringly for many weeks in preparation for the "great event." The first item, which lelighterl the audience, was two songs by the infant girls—"The Little People" and "Fairy Bells Ring." Next came a spirited Irish Jig, by Misses Lorna Gordon and Shirley Brown, and Waltz Clogs as a well-deserved encore. Miss Molly Ryan, in her usual winsome way, recited "Reggie," and responded to an encore with "He Was There and so was I." "The Little Tree." sung very sweetly by Miss Marion Delaney, was the next item. Then came the boys in their lively chorus, "Cheery Songs"—this was certainly one of the best items of the evening. A znuchlv appreciated vocal duet, "Erin, the Tear." was rendered by Misses D. Bovell and J. Manns. Members of the Children of Mary's Dramatic Society, Misses M. Ryan, M. Houston. A. Caldow and S. Grady. then provoked much merriment with their presentation of a one-act sketch, "The Jumble Sale." A short interval was followed by a brilliant chorus, "To the Woods," by the Master Pat Linto then Senior Girls received well-merited applause for his recitation. "Lochnivar." and his encore, Miss D Gus"The Presbytery Dog." tafson. in her clear soprano voice, rendered "Happy Song" and obliged with "Keep on Hoping" as an encore. "The Fairies' Gift," a charming little cantata, was enacted by the pupils. Those responsible for the principal parts were: Fairy Queen, Alma Moore: Fairy King, John McMullan: Fairy Bluebell. Kathleen Ellen:: Fairy Rose. Margaret Cusack: Fairy Primrose. Kathleen McMullan; Earth Child. Irene Scarffe; Flower Girl, Ella Harman: Witch. Joyce Manus; Puck, Val. Killeen; Jester.

A t the conclusion of the programme R ex'. Father Kenny, 0.M.I., in a happy sneech. congratulated the children on their performances. and on behalf of the Sisters of St. joseph thanked the other artists, and all those who had assisted in any way towards making the concert such a wonderful success The singing of "God Save Ireland" brought a memorable evening to a close.

PRICK CARD BULLETIN.

Father Xmas Enlists in Our Brigade. Nowhere and Anywhere, August 1, 1932. Dear Aunt Bessy.—I hope you will excuse me for butting in at this time of the year, but you see. I had a little chat with St. Joseph a short time ago, when I asked him to obtain a favour for me, which he did, so wishing to do something in return, I thought a little donation towards your Great Bushies' Scheme (which I have been watching with interest) would suit the purpose. I hope you will accept same (Don't you know A.B. by this, Father Xmas?), and wishing your Scheme and the Brigade the success it deserves.—Yours, FATHER XMAS. A RHYME TO OUR FATHER XMAS (Not to be read by King Kevin O'Doherty or any other Babies.) Although I know not your abode, Or where you keep your treasured load, And though it's mans- a year ago, Since last I met you cloaked with snow, I'm going to write a rhyme to you. Father Xmas. e'en your eyes. Will scarce my writing recognise, So many years have come and fled. Since last I wrote to you and said What things I wanted from your pack. I was so certain you existed, Till one contrariwise insisted. When underneath our playhouse roof, He promised he would give me proof, If I preserved the secret. So, on a certain Xmas Eve. Intent my faith to undeceive, He tempted me to creep downstairs. And listen-in to strange affairs Abrewing in the kitchen. I, in my pride of sure belief, Determined not to come to grief. Crouched in my robe of night repose, Against the undeceiver's toes. And shivered in the darkness. My heart still bears the chiming clock, That echoed Ten—then gave the shock, When strained and pressed close to my brother, I heard the sweet voice of my mother— A voice the grave has long-since stilled! I heard her say: "My gracious, look. We only bought one Picture Book!" And then—the gem of my desires— She said. "The pram has rubber tyres. So won't she be delighted?" Alarmed. I heard my daddy say. In his good humoured generous way. "This bike I'm half inclined to rue, McEwans charged me Two pounds two, But still, it k a bargain." Again my mother: "Hold this stocking, And try and keep that horse from rocking, Or else well wake the children, Ted. And have them jumping out of bed, The happy, sleeping darlings!" My brother punched me on the knee, Too boyish far, my pain to see; 'Twas had enough the stairs to creak, So both thought better not to speak. As back to bed we scampered. I did not wait the dawn's first light. Because I cried: then slept all night, Instead of hearing Twelve. One. Two. And wondering if the kitchen flue Would make your nice face sooty. But now in my life's ageing days. You come in like mysterious ways, And I rejoice that in your name. St. Joseph's help we now may claim, When I your cheque am banking. I do not grudge the toys long broken. I'd rather have your Busbies' token. And you have come to fill in part An empty niche within my heart. And reign therein as Santa Claus. —AUNT BESSY. P.S.: Father Xmas, we now give you the freedom of this Corner, in grateful recognition of your generosity to our appeals. You will, therefore, consider Yourself most welcome whenever you choose to ' 'butt in." We feel mighty honoured to think that such a world-famous. greatly sought gentleman as you should deign to keep your benevolent, eye on our humble doings. Your cheque for E2 was a real heart raiser, especially as I had just digested a message from the Editor offering his sympathy in advance, cos he doesn't think I'm going to get the t100.—Your "AUNT BESSY." grateful,

Valuable Trophy of Battle Falls on Aunt Bessy's Lap. No Explosion—No liOry. Monday was a sunny day in A.B.'s headquarters, in spite of wintry squalls without. An unexpected contingent arrived in just as she was making ready for her afternoon nap, and it brought home many encouraging proofs of loyal, ardent service. Yet, the greatest honour must be accorded to a Pithara volunteer named Tripina Pedocia. She went into the firing line only a fortnight ago, and blew in on Monday with her Prick Card shot through in every spare space for anything from 1./1i to l , so that the total which accompanied it amounted to 11 Is ld. As Tripina is only a little girl, and as she has complained that other girls call her "Tripe and Onions," because of her uncommon Christian name, all Cornerites are ordered to remember that in future this valiant soldier will be known in the Corner as "Contessa Tripina Pedocia." Furthermore, any person or persons heard calling her "Tripe and Onions" will incur the violent displeasure of King Kevin O'Dols erty. and if captured by A.B. will he cast into the mutton broth to thicken it. Reported Missing. Captain Ippy Wilson, D.S.O., and Miss _finny O'Brien, of Sydney, with their 15 Prick Cards, are now absent long enough to cause grave anxiety. Handsome reward offered for their appearance in flesh or cash at headquarters.—"SHYLOCK." Spiritual Feast in Store for Forty Bushies. Rev Mother, St. .loseph's Convent: Albany, has sent invitations to about 40 Big Busbies to join in the retreat which will be given to the Children of Mary by a Redemptorist Father, commencing prior to the Feast of the Assumption. Already the invitations have been accepted, and those Busbies who cannot be accommodated at the convent, will be made welcome in the homes of the kindly Catholics of Albany. There should he a great reunion at the Communion Breakfast on August 18, and surely those privileged to look upon that scene will feel that the Busbies' Scheme is already blossoming into the fruit most pleasing to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Extract of Ink. To Aunt Bessy, for the Busbies, in thanksgiving to the Little Flower for favour received.—From "A Client of the Little Flower." Dear Client of the Little Flower,— You have a new nom de guerre, but the same fidelity to our Cause, and thank you for the 2/6 of thanksgiving. —AUNT BESSY. Sth. Kalgoorlie. August 1. 1932. Dear Aunt Ressy.—Enclosed you will find P.N. for 2/6. to prick a card for me I am an admirer of your Busbies' Scheme, and wish it every success.—I remain, " A CONSTANT READER OF 'THE RECORD." Dear "Constant Reader,"—I am very grateful for your 2/6. which is the best proof you could send us of your admiration for the Scheme. AUNT BESSY. July 27, 1932. Dear Aunt Bessy.—I am enclosing a ten-shilling note to enable you to dispose of four Prick Cards. T feel quite confident that you will get the £100, for your heavenly helpers could not fail you in such an excellent cause: and your own enthusiasm seems unbounded. May God bless you and all concerned. I often picture the welcome Father McMahon will receive when he enters heaven, hut, please God, it will not be for many a year vet, and many a prayer is wafted to heaven for him and the glorious work. "A LOVER OF THE SACRED HEART." Dear Lover of the Sacred Heart,— How could the Corner not be lucky when some are so watchful of the interests of the Sacreo Heart, and bring their offerings to our pleas for the souls of the children? Father McMahon, and the many priests and nuns whose lives and zeal are dedicated to souls, could not further the cause of the Busbies if there were not souls like you to give them the monetary aid that is needed. Therefore, may your wishes and prayers be twining a memento of your own generosity around the Sacred Heart. and thank you for such a kind letter and gift. AUNT BESSY. July 26. 1932 Dear Aunt Bessy,--Enclosed is 2/6, and will you please prick a card for me

in honour of the Little Flower for a favour I want? Wishing the Scheme every success, and please give me a pen-name instead of publishing my own. M. I shall call you "Red Rose,- in hope that e'er you see your name you will have received the rose you want from St. Therese. I almost wishI had some way of impressing her with the fact that she must send you one, but, she is sure to know, and will send it too if it AUNT BESSY. is good for you.

Table tennis has always been one of t he principal pastimes ,-)f the society, ;,nil although many fine exponents of Se game are to be found in its ranks, i :s actual champion is unknown, for the very simple reason that at least in recent years no championship has been conducted. St. Brigid's has initiated this cornpetition, not only for the purpose of unearthing the chans pion, but also to help stimulate further interest in the society generally, and now looks to every Hibernian to ensure it succes: by participating.
