A mass meeting, open to the public, was held in the public hall of Nagasaki, Japan, June 6, under the auspices of the Catholic Young Men's Society of that city, directed by Father Yamaguchi. The event was well advertised by s treet posters and newspaper notices. The hall was filled to its capacity of 1,350, of whom more than one-half were pagans. Two young men of the Society, one a convert from Protestantism and the other a convert from pag anism, addressed the gathering and outlined the history of the Catholic Church in Japan, showing how it survived the many persecutions undertaken to stamp it out. Father Wakida, pastor of the naval port of Sasebo, and well known for his joyful disposition. spoke on the great gift of faith as the Bishop real joy of mind and heart. Januarius Ilayasaka, Bishop of Nagasaki, was present and explained to t he people the constitution of the Catholic Church, summarised its teachings and gave the actual condition of the Church in Japan. The same sort of meeting was held in the city six months ago. with excellent results. The cost of renting the hall and advertising the event prohibits them from having the gatherings more often, but Father Yamaguchi hopes to secure sufficient funds sometime to have a special hall built for such meetings.— Fides. THE PERSECUTION IN MEXICO. ilit latest phase of the persecution of the Church in Mexico takes the form The o f suppression of rescue work. House of the Good Shepherd at San Pedro de los Pinos, a village within the Federal District, has been closed, and its director, Sister Ubdulia Macias, and her three assistants put in gaol. Sister Obdulia, in protesting the closing, pointed out that the institution was not a convent- but a refuge for unfortunate women and girls who found themselves without homes. It was founded, she told the authorities, by an English woman whose name she refused to divulge. THE POPE AND THE WORLD CRISIS. High tariffs are blamed by the Pope for the world economic depression, in a letter to the President of the Society responsible for the social work of the Catholics of France, which opened its 24th. meeting at Lille recently. His Holiness adds that the world crisis demands that those taking part in the meeting should do their best to promote better feeling and closer collaboration between nations. THE CERTOSA OF PAVIA. A fter a lapse of over 50 years the famous Carthusian Monastery, the Certoga di Pavia, is to be partly reoccupied by monks of the Order by which it was abandoned in 1881, in virtue of permission granted recently The formal by the civil authorities. ceremony of re-occupation took place The new arrangement, last month. leaving as it does, the custody of the certosa, with the exception of the small area actually occupied by the monks, in the hands of the Ministry of Education, will not prevent visitors from viewing as hitherto the treasures of the church and the great cloister with its 24 small houses. MARTYRS' CHAPEL RETURNS TO CATHOLIC CHURCH. The lips of a thousand pilgrims kissed the grey stones of Padley Chapel, Derbyshire, recently, on the occasion of the annual pilgrimage organised by the Guild of Our Lady of Ransom.
Pailley Chapel has novv passed into the hands of the Catholic Church once more, and Bishop McNulty, of Not, tingham, who led the pilgrimage for the first time, announced, "Mass will be said at Padley next year." At Padley the Litany of the Saints, the De Pro. fundis and the Crecla were recited, and Dr. McNulty preached a panegyric of the Derbyshire Martyrs, the Ven. Nicholas Garlick and the Ven. Robert Ludlam, who were apprehended at Padley Chapel in July, 1588, and martvred near St. Mary s Bridge, Derby. By ascending a ladder placed against t he walls of the chapel, which has for years been used as a hayloft and cow. shed, the pilgrims were able to see the room in which the two martyrs were r rested.

Browning as a Lyric Poet (By LEONARD HARROP BA.)
At the outset, it is very necessary to cake sure what critical writers mean by the term lyric. Some use it to denote all poetry which does not fall under the headings Epic or Drama. Some modern writers, on the other band, give implicit acceptance of the lyric form, and mood as poetry "par excellence. ' In this sense, as Carpenter points out, lyrical expression is conceived as "the very soul and essence Gray, in at poetical expression." 1756. writes: "The true lyric style, wit l i flights of fancy, ornaments, ......is in its nature superior to e very other style; which is just the atm why it could not be borne in a work of great length, no more than the eye could bear to see this scene that we constantly gaze upon—the verdure of the fields and woods, the azure of the sea and skies—turned into one dazzling expanse of gems." hi we use the word in its stricter sense, there are two essential ideas thai attach to it: "The idea of its musical character and associations, and the idea of the lyric as the peculiar poetic instrument for the expression of per:onal mood and feeling. To use the words of Ernest Rhys, the word 'lyrical" "implies a form of mtsical utterance in words governed by overmastering emotion and set free by a powerfully concordant rhythm." In the 7-riedern lyric there are two dimes: Firstly, such verse which in form and spirit is closely allied to the idea of musical delivery or accompaniment, and then such verse as is not aecessarily or even primarily intended to be allied with musical expression, but which is. :n its very nature, musical. It is interesting, when reading criticisms of Browning, to come across utterances of this kind: "And then suddenly, as if some (iiscordant instrument were silenced in an orchestra, and unvexed music floated on the ear, the manner changec:" or again: "The power o: his lyric song when at rare intervtlls it flows in pure and untroubled :me." h Browning then unmusical, except at rare intervals? Is his eliptical condensed style then incapable of These sustained flights of melody? questions will be dealt with in the genera] dicussion of Browning as a lyrical. Browning's Songs. Browning wrote a number of lyrics Which are confe,-:sedly of the type prelicnisly mentioned, of lyric most near1;7 allied to music. Such are "Cavalier Tunes." and the songs from the rlramas. The former effectually answer More's assertion that Browning lacked a sense of rhythm. (He suggest-

ed that this was due to his having been deficient of pulse in the medical sense.) Yu man who was deficient in rhythm could have written these sturdy, galloping songs with their infectious chor uses:
greatly to the effect of the poem is the marvellous suitability of the rhythm to the theme. The woman has stolen out of the ballroom, to enlist the aid of the poison-vendor. She still seems intoxicated with the rhythm of the dance; it has entered into her blood and become associated with her revenge:
" Marching along, fifty-score strong, Great-hearted gentlemen, singing this song."
"Now, take all my jewels, gorge gold to your fill, You may kiss me, old man, on my mouth, if you will! But brush this dust off me, lest horror it brings, Ere I know it—next moment I dance at the King's!"
"King Charles, and who'll do him right now? King Charles, and who's ripe for fight now? Give a rouse: here's in hell's despite now, King Charles!" "Boot, saddle, to horse, and away!"
Much of Browning's poetry, then, has the ordinary direct appeal to the emotions. This quality is most marked in those poems which have the narrative reduced to a minimum; that is, those poems which most nearly express a single mood. Such are "May and Death, ' "Prospice," "The Patriot." The first expresses a man's feelings as death approaches:
A s for the songs from his dramas, though few of them attain the simplicity and liquid melody of "Pippa's Song," yet all of them are true songs in every sense of the word. Browning as an Innovator. So far, we have merely seen how well Browning could write lyrics in the old manner. He did much more than this by inventing a new type—the dramatic lyric. In drama, particularly in the poetical drama, the utterance of the characters under stress of strong emotion tended to become lyrical. It remained for Browning to mould this highly-charged emotional material into a separate artistic form. How far he has succeeded may be judged by the popularity of his dramatic poems (and nearly all of them are dramatic). Why he succeeded is because he was able (in almost every case) to sink himself in the character who is speaking. Thus each of them is actually a subjective and individual emotional study, fulfilling the requirements of lyric poetry.
amples of reciprocated love are "Any Wife to Any Husband' and "Woman's Last Word." In these latter examples, there is to be noticed an utter absorption of the woman's spirit into the man's: "Teach me, only teach, love! As I ought I will speak thy speech, Love, Think thy thought— Meet if thou require it, Both demands, Laying flesh and spirit In thy hands." All of these poems are alike in that they are all, in greater or less degree, worthy contributions to English love literature. "In the perfect or ideal lyric," says Carpenter, "whether poem or song, the form must be the perfect expression of the mood." Set beside this Chesterton's assertion that "Browning no sooner had a new idea than he tried to make a new form to express it. He really created a large number of quite novel and quite admirable dramatic forms." Subtract from this estimate what he did for other "genres" besides the lyric, and we shall at once see what an immense amount he did for this latter. He altered many lyric metres and stanzas to suit the poem he had in hand, and was equally successful at forming new ones. One must feel how suitable is the metre to the theme of "A Woman's Last Word," to name only one example. As a particularly happy example of his metrical invention, notice "A Pretty Woman":
"Fear death? —to feel the fog in my throat, The mist in my face. When the snow -begins, and the blasts denote I am nearing the place, The power of the night, the press of the storm, etc. The post of the foe." The second—one of the finest dyrics in the language—expresses the age-old desolation of a man bereft of his friend; the last is the cry of a man who has experienced the fickleness of the mob. All of them are splendid examples of much of Browning's poetry. "That fawn-skin-dappled hair of hers. Browning's Love Lyrics.

Naturally the condition of the field invited crowded play, but, apart from one unpleasant incident, the game was thoroughly enjoyed by 'players and spectators alike. This result puts the College lads a game and a half in front of Calingiri, with Plains four points behind the latter. In the opening quarters the flankers, T. Ferguson and Maher, shone for the College, while Reynolds booted three full-pointers early in the contest before his ankle was injured.

NEW NORCIA. t The following sketch of the Church is Western Australia is taken from a pamphlet by Rev. Dr. McMahon, by seeee kind permission it is published herd .,Geeig therefore teach ye all nations." !St. Mark, XXVITIo. The Benedictine Aborigines Mission of New Norcia was founded by the late Bishop Salvado—then Dom Rudesindo Salvado—in the year 1848. on the first of March, his own birthday. With ism were Father (afterwards Bishop) Serra. and two Benedictine lay-Brothers. These great Apostles came to the Western shores with hearts burning with zeal and a courage ready to face every difficulty and endure all kinds of hardships in the work of evangelising the aboriginals. Hsving chosen the present site of the Mission. about g0 miles from Perth, as the centre of his labours, Dom Salvado's first care was to provide a home not only for his community, but also for the natives. whose bodily and spiritual welfare were the foremost obiecte in his scheme for the spread of ?aith. A small Government grant of some acres of land was the material placed in the Community's hands for providing themselves with the necessaries of life. Too often, indeed, these very necessaries were wanting, in spite of the assidu-us labours 07' the self-sacrificing pieneers. At tfmes, their choicest food consisted of ti,arrls and edible roots, w e showed they were on the brink of- starvation The same poverty was noticeable in their clothing, which was made out of roughly-dried skins of KanBut these privations served sa:ex). to show their cheerfulness in suffering and the trust they had in the protection of the ',tether of God.

The labour of sinking wells. sawing timber, bullock-driving, and plseghing had to be done by the Missionaries themselves, and the difficulty of obtaining implements and having them repaired made their tasks doubly hard.

The vineyard containe s.hout 30 000 vines, which keep rest cellars well stocked with maturing mines. There is also a large orchard of +rim and other fruits, as well as an extensive olive grove.

polyglot Bible. Sacred vessels of precmus metals and richly-jewelled and embroidered vestments of the 18th. century astonish and delight the visitors. The Monastic Choir is justly celebrated for its admirable rendering of Gregorian music, while the ceremonies of the Church are carried out with great pomp and magnificence. New Norcia is a grand and lasting monument to the indomitable courage with which the f ounders faced and overcame difficulties. Dr. Salvado died at Rome on, the 29th. December, 1900. He had laboured over fifty years in his self-sacrificing Mission, and in his latter years had the happiness of seeing the marvels God's grace had done in the souls of those for whom he had laboured. He had formed a prosperous community of natives, all enjoying, down even to the fourth generation, the great blessings of Christianity. His sacred remains were brought back to New Norcia, to the intense joy of his spiritual children, among whom he had laboured during the greater part of his wonderful life, as well as of the whole population of Western Australia. The inscription on his tomb in the parish church testifies to the lustre shed on the Catholic Church by the way he laboured to implant religion in the hearts of the aborigines in the face of innumerable and almost insuperable obstacles. His successor, Dr. Torres, finding the aboriginals decreasing in number, without in any way neglecting the spiritual and tempoal welfare of the natives. turned the energies and resources of the Mission towards the erection of schools for the education of children of the white population. The Convent School for Girls was given into the charge of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Sacred Heart, in 1908, and in 1912 the Marist Brothers took the management of the Boys' College. They are both magnificent and well-equipped establishments. The attraction of a pleasant motordrive, added to the desire of seeing the wonders of this flourishing Setteiment, causes numbers of visitors to take a run to New Norcia on Sundays and holidays. The Benedictine Fathers have charge of several parishes near New Norcia, all of which are in a very progressive A special interest is taken in state. the blacks belonging to these Missions. several of whom are at present receiving instructions preparatory to being baptised. PERTH. — "So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in Heaven." (St. Matt., V.). Previous to his appointment to the Bishopric of the Episcopal See of Perth. in August, 1873, Dr. Griver had acted as Administrator of the Diocese during the absence of Dr. Serra end, later, on. when the latter resigned his position as Coadjutor of Dr. Brady, a rescript from Rome appointed Dr. Griver Bishop of Tloa and Administrator Apostolic of Perth. This hole- Bishop had been one of the first to throw in his lot with his fellow-countryman, Dr. Serra. for the distant Mission of Port Victoria. where be laboured strenuously until called to Perth. He continued to be unwearying in every work of the sacred ministry. and a model of every virtue to his flock. One who was familiar with his daily life thus writes: "Patient. pious. and inspired with a most ardent zeal, he was indefatigable in the discharge of the duties of his sacred office, and seemed insensible to bodily fatigue or weariness of mind, so long as the spiritual needs of his flock called for his care or Duty was the -sacrifice of his time. a thine sacred in his eyes and in the most pithy of its details, and the most trivial of its phases commanded his entire and absorbed attention.

He Jived for his people. and he lived amongst them. His life was an open book, in the pages of which could he read the evidence of his merits To say that he had and his worth not a sincle ill-wisher amongst the many individuals subject to his spiritual rule would be. whilst saving the truth, to say what would furnish but an inadequate idea of the hold he had In upon the affections of his flock every heart Bishop Griver had an undisputed place, nor was there one which did not admit his claim upon its affection and respect"

schools at Fremantle. For some time the Government refused to recognise the Nuns' Schools and Orphanages, but the unqestionable merit of the Sisters. and their success in teaching, overcame all obstacles. Regarding the Boys' Orphanage, the Bishop said that it was a splendid building, originally intended for a Benedictine Monastery. Four hundred acres of land were attached to it, running round three sides of a large swamp or lake. The Government authorised the draining of the lake, which would give an additional eight hundred acres of the reclaimed land for the Or. phanageDr. Griver took part in the Plenary Council of Australasia in 1885, but he was then sinking under the burden of years and n.firmities. At his request a petition for the appointment of a Coadjutor Bishop was forwarded to the Holy See. The choice fell on Rev. Matthew Gibney, Vicar-General of the Diocese, but bforee the briefs of his appointment were received. Dr. Griver was summoned to his reward. On the Feast of All Saints, 1st. of " :ember, 1888. His Lordship celebrated Pontifical High Mass in the Cathedral, and in the evening assisted at Benediction of the Most Holy Sacrament. Immediately afterwards, he became suddenly weak, and in three hours his saintly life was closed by a most holy death.
Writing on one occasion to the Society of the Propagation of the Faith, His Lordship gave an example of the difficulties that beset a Missionary in those days in Western Australia. In the month of August that year, one of his priests, stationed 250 miles to the north of Perth, was summoned to baptise a child 130 miles farther north. He halted at his little Church of Our Lady, 55 miles from his residence, and thence started on horse-back across a desert, carrying with him vestments and all the requisites for Holy Mass. He baptised the child, heard confessions, and said Mass; he was back in Our Lady's Church on Saturday evening. There a mesenger summoned him to 'attend a sick person 35 miles in a southerly direction. On Sunday, after celebrating Mass, he proceeded to administer the Sacraments to this sick person. Then he had to undertake another journey of 90 miles to baptise t wo children. He was back again at Our Lady's Church on Friday to attend to the immediate wants of the district. This holy Bishop had been, all As Administrator of the Diocese, Dr. through his life, remarkable for his austerities. In this he rivalled the Griver was a zealous church builder.

Some interesting facts concerning the Mission are gleaned from the account of the visit "ad limina," which His Lordship paid to Rome in 1882.

A Troubled World
tic happenings that were as inspiring In an imas they were informative pressive and eloquent sermon in St. Mary's Cathedral on Sunday night last, Father Francis conveyed to a large congregation ''Congress Impressions;" In vivid language he described the enthusiastic welcome accorded to the representative of Christ's Vicar—a welcome never Meted out to earthly Prince or Sovereign by subThe dejects, no matter how loyal. coration of the slums, where altars and statues and banners, bearing the motto, "Hail, qhrist Our King!" "Welcome Christ. Friend of the Orphan and the Poor," transformed earthly misery and squalor into celestial peace and joy. In no less vivid terms dirj he speak of the Midnight Masses and the great Procession. In his own words, we sum up his beautiful sermon: "To live in Ireland during the Congress was to live in a land not of this world; in a land of a high spiritual atmosphere, where prayer gave way to ecstasy and Faith to vision."
The political world to-day is busy discussing economic problems and seeking a solution of the widespread depression which, like a canker, is eating into the core of international stability. The ablest statesmen of the time are interchanging their thoughts in conferences in an endeavour to find a way out of the impasse created by the slump that has overtaken world progress. All that human wisdom can contrive is being done in national Cabinets and Councils to restore the economic balance, and yet there seems to be no assurance that the shadow of industrial depression is lifting, despite occasional pronouncements from optimistic politicians and party leaders. In this State the fact that some nine thousand are stated to be employed on relief works is evidence that the silver lining of the cloud that overhangs industry is not showing itself to any appreciable extent. We have yet much to hope for, and much to achieve, before there is a return to those comfortable times that were before the advent of the dole and the unpleasantness of relief works. All the wizardy of the politician, we are afraid, \yin accomplish little until the x‘:orld examines its conscience and gets back to habits that accord with Christian principles. Whilst there is still great money-power in the world, it should be used for the reconstruction of industry, and the avoidance of that unfortunate climax in world affairs that must come if wealth refuses to function in the interests of the masses. • • Exaggerated notions of Nationalism and race conceits have had much to do with the creation of those stupifying causes that underlie the present depression in world affairs. The race for wealth has unsteadied men's minds, and withdrawn them from obedience to those fundamental natural precepts that lie at the core of ordered progress. That large-spirited human charity which prevailed in the Middle Ages. when competitive industrialism had not as yet left its black incubus upon the world of commerce and labour, has been destroyed by the avarice and greed of wealth, and now it would seem that the thing is up for judgment before the Courts of Reason and Common sense. There is a gathering discontent in every part of the world, and a spirit of lawlessness that bodes mischief in the future. Whilst nations are making vows of peace, individuals are secretly fomenting strife. Social doctrines aiming at the dissipation of the world's accumulated wealth are being promulgated. and the tendencies of the time point to an industrial upheaval that will stagger, if not disrupt, our system of civilisation. The war drums have not ceased their beatings, and never will, so long as the masses are being squeezed between the upper and nether millstones of poverty. Nor can there be-commercial prosperity so long as the wage-earner is on the fringe of poverty. And here again we touch a sore that is causing considerable concern to the millions in industry, and is a cause of discontent. How to adjust the differences between Capital and Labour satisfactorily and fairly is the most tantalising problem of the moment. It is, we think, a problem of more importance than the Conference at Ottawa. where, it is now told us. our greatest achievement is the meat agreement. a • • The fortunes of nations, no less than individuals, we believe. are in God's hands. Mankind is drawing away from •Him and making unto itself new and strange gods. Religion is being smothered in the social competition for wealth and pleasure, and God is being forgotten and denied a place in the philosophy of Government. Tri England at the present moment, it is alleged, a League of the Godless, a foreign importation, is functioning in fifty centres. Its purpose is to attack Capitalism through religion and to spread the anti-religious movement to teachers in elementary schools. The children of the nation are to be won to the standards of this alien monster, and the Government of Britain complacently dozes, as other Governments in the Empire are, while the poison works. Lord Glasgow made a serious comment upon this matter recently, and incidentally paid a tribute to the watchfulness of the Catholic Church. when he blamed the Anglican leaders, "who are afraid of mixing in politics," for not supporting the protest movement, "although the Catholic Church is taking a strong line all over the world." • • The Holy Father views the present state of Society with anxiety for the future of world peace. He calls the Christian world to prayer and to the practice of charity. "The world," he says. "has been brought face to face, to bodily grips almost, with the evil thing which privilege of class and race and riches serve when they are not accompanied by the spirit of penitence, of charity eri'd Christian prayer."
Word has been received by cable from Rome. of the death of His Eminence Cardinal William Van Rossum, a most distinguished member of the Redemptorist Congregation. The deceased Cardinal had a brilliant career, both as a Redemptorist and as a Prince of the Church. Born in Zwolle, in Holland, September 5, 1854, he entered the Redemptorist Congregation in 1873, and was ordained priest in 1879. From 1880 until 1895. Professor, Prefect of Studies, and Rector f the House of Studies at Wittem, he was called to Rome in the latter year He was elected Consultor-General of his Order in 1900. created Cardinal by Pius X. in November, 1911, and named Titular Cardinal of the Church of Holy Cross in Jerusalem in 1915. Two years later Cardinal Van Rossum was appointed to the important position of Cardinal Prefect of the Congregation of Propaganda, which position he filled until the time of his death. In this position his chief interest was the fostering of Catholic missions. During a long life dedicated entirely to the service of the Church, Cardinal Van Rossum remained always a priest of e xemplary personal piety and zeal, whose death will be mourned by his o wn Redemptorist Congregation and by all who knew him.

Being the first of the pilgrims to return to Australia from that wonderful celebration, pronounced by the representative of Christ's Vicar, "the greatest triumph in the history of the Church," Father Francis' impressions were much in demand.

At a funeral in the little village of Eie, near Verdun, recently, the coffin was carried from the house to the church and from the church to the cemetery by four mayors—the Mayors Eix and three neighbouring villages. The deceased was the mother of the pastor of Eix, who also served the parishes. The three neighbouring Mayors of the four villages asked for the honour of carrying the coffin to show the great affection of the people of their villages for their sorrowing pastor.

The weekly euchre party was held in the School Hall on Tuesday evening last, the attendance being very satisFourteen games were playfactory. ed, after which it was found that six players, each winning ten games, had tied for the first and second prizes. The successful players were Mesdames Barrass and Cain, and Miss S. Gallagher, Messrs. McCarthy, B. Barrass, and R. Smith. The weekly raffle was won by Mr. Pain, No. 82. The proceeds were in aid of Miss Joyce Hullett, the Maylands Princess. The ninth stage of the Inglewood Princess Novelty distribution was drawn for, and resulted as follows: (1), 10s.: (310), 10s. The annual Adult and Children's Balls, which were held last week, and a report of which will appear in next week's issue, were both brilliant social successes, and although the financial aspect will not be so great as last Year, on account of the limitation of donetions. etc., it is pleasing to note that the attendance at both exceeded that of last year, 14 more being present at the Adult Ball and 67 more at the Children's function. Dr. O'Hurley wishes to express his sincere thanks to the ladies wh6 worked so tirelessly during the week, also to those who attended, and not forgetting the generous donors of goods, etc. Those ladies with books are requested to hand same in to the hon. secretary as soon as possible. so that finality can be reached.

The boxing tournament commences on Monday week, and will end with a grand finale in the Cathedral Hall the following Monday. This should prove a big attraction, twenty members haying already been numbered among the contestants. The Society guarantees a just decision, and an attractive prize, but will not hold itself bound to defray hospital expenses. However, there's no danger, and a sure way of receiving a K.O. is to have heart palpitation before you enter the ring.
Highgate Notes Euchre Party. The weekly euchre was not at its best on last Monday evening. The seer& tarial duties were admirably performed by Mrs. Arnold. The total prize money was divided between Mesdames Curtis and Ryan and Mr. H. Gallagher, each receiving 10/6. Even though the euchre tournament was not largely attended, the dance showed a vast improvement on those of previous weeks. A kitchen tea was given to Miss D.

Fremantle Notes The "Busy Bees" Are at it Again. Beaconsfield: For some months past the "busy bee" has been back in Beaconsfield putting finishing touches to the gigantic work undertaken last year. Such men! There is no holding them back. You think they are finished, but no, along they come with some new suggestion of another improvement. The fact that it means hours of hard toil does not seem to enter into their calculations. Visitors to the Sacred Heart School can hardly believe that it is the same place. Some fifty tons of gravel have worked marvels of transformation in the appearance of the grounds, and have given the children the long-looked-for net. ball court and an extra play ground. The final touches are now being applied, consisting of a bitumened avenue of trees, extending from the road to the school entrance. Last year we published the long list of generous workers who had devoted their time and labour to this work of love. This year they have returned with renewed energy to the work. They are proud of it, and have every reason to be so, for it is a credit to their skill and good taste. Fremantle.—A "busy bee" has found its way to St. Patrick's Hall lately, and has worked a transformation there A permanent stage has been erected, almost four feet high, and having a floc:space of 20ft. x 23ft. The floor of the old meeting room was raised first and e xcavations made. The hall is the old church built by the Benedictines, and there we found the foundations built to support the High Altar. They kney how to build, those old Benedictines! At least so the busy bee says, and he should know, as he neatly bad to have recourse to dynamite to move those foundations. But they were shifted, and were replaced by a store room beneath the new stage. The store room has a cement floor and a capacity of 3,000 cubic feet. The old unwieldly partition doors have been removed to the entrance of the hall, w here they form an excellent screen, making the hall more private, and stopping the draught which was so noticeable there previously. New doors running on a "bang traveller" have replaced them, so that the stage will serve as an excellent meeting room also. Other improvements have been made which \--:11 be appreciated by patrons of the hall. The stage will be used for the rirst time on Wednesday evening. September 7, when the members of the Choir, assisted by popular artists, will produce their second variety show. The success of their first venture has emboldened them to more ambitious things this time. With the added help of a first-class stage and scenery, this show promises to completely eclipse the one staged in June last. And judging by the high praise given to that venture, and the numbers of people who missed it, and are determined not to miss this one, the hall will be taxed to its utmost capacity.

CHRISTIAN BROTHERS' COLLEGE, PERTH First Annual Communion and Breakfast SPLENDID ADDRESS BY HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP On Sunday, August 28th., one of the most important events ever connected with the College took place. It was an Annual Communion for all the old boyss and those who were present in the Cathedral were much edified and highly delighted at the excellent crowd of old collegians, both young and old, who received Holy Communion from the hands of His Grace our Archbishop. From the first moment that it was announced to hold such an important manifestation of faith, the success seemed assured, and were it not for the inclemency of the weather, a bigger muster would surely have been present. During the celebration of Holy Mass by the Archbishop, several hymns were sung, and they added very much to the solemnity of the occasion. Mr. Peter Roxby rendered Bordese's "0 Salutaris" in a devotional and inimitable style, his final crescendo and diminuendo being reminiscent of his very best efforts. He was accompanied by N. O'Mahony, to whom also our thanks are due. The breakfast took place at the College, in a room specially decorated for the occasion. Old and new pennants hung from the walls, and dated from 1905 to 1932, secured as a result of many a hard-fought game on the footOf theae the old boys ball field.

He felt deeply grateIv for the thigh hononr conferred upon him.

From "The Record," 1875 The annual prize distribution of the Young Ladies' School, conducted by the Sisters of Mercy, took place on December 11. The Vicar General, the Very Rev. M.

We have much pleasure in noting the names of the children who were deserving of prizes in their classes: Christian Doctrine: Misses L. and E. Reilly, Miss K. Lucas, and Miss Osborne. French: The Misses Roe, Porter, Little, Glyde and Taylor. English: The Misses Ursula Reilly, Farrelly, Dean, and Monaghan.

The usual influx of visitors marked t he beginning of the Annual Racing Hound, which took place last Wednesday. The Kalgoorlie Racing Club raced first as it always does in the "evennumber" year, and was favoured with beautiful weather for its "curtainraiser." The patrons, however, had none too good a clay, as mostly longpriced horses came home. The second day, better known as Hannan's Handicap day, was a very disagreeable day on the course. Heavy rain had fallen o ver night, and though the rain ceased about ten o'clock, the respite was only temporary, for very heavy showers, accompanied by driving wind, rather spoilt the afternon, and to add to the discomfort, the well-backed Hannan's favourite.

The fortnightly bridge evening, held on Thursday night, August 25, in St. Joseph's Hall, Subiaco, was conducted by the St. Vincent de Paul brothers, and although the night was most unpleasant, with wind, and rain, a good number braved the elements and enjoyed the evening. During supper Mr. Casey announced the winners. Mr. Wilson for the highest hidden number, and Mrs. Peachy was successful for the lowest hidden number. The final arrangements for the Subiaco Catholic Ball, to be held in King's Hall, on Monday, September 5, are well in hand, and the members of the ladies' committee, under the leadership of Mrs. Wardrop and Miss E. Jones, are making every effort to ensure a very enjoyable event. The presentation of a large number oi debutantes and their partners should prove a very pleasant feature of the evening's enjoyment.

THE RECORD.
--Sisters of St. Joseph of the Apparition THEIR FIRST
CENTENARY
e specially in this land, where Nature's first school—the home—is often not what it ought to be. Amongst the various Teaching-Sisterhoods in West Australia, the nuns of St. Joseph of the Apparition deserve our warm gratitude, whether we regard the long period of their service; their devotion to their task; or the influence over their pupils past and present. A t the request of Bishop Serra, the four pioneer Sisters arrived in Fremantle in 1855, after a voyage of nearly six months. Disembarking in the primitive fashion of that remote period of our Port's history, the Sisters found Fremantle a mere scattered settlement. "Sand, sorrow snd shrubbery," might sommarise their prospect. However, they set about their task with characteristic zeal. We find it hard to visualise the difficulties those pioneers had to undergo. in establishing their first little school towards the end of the present city. Reinforced later with recruits from Ireland. they founded St. Joseph's Convent, in Adelaide. street, which has continued until today as the principal educational establishment for Catholic girls at the Port. As the new hasbour works progressed, Fremantle grew into a town, and St. Joseph's Convent was enlarged, and a Novitiate erected, where Australian vocations have been rapidly increasing during the past quarter of a century. When the Oblate Fathers took over Fremantle Parish in 1894, they were pleased to find as their subsidiaries in the Vineyard, he same Congregation of Nuns which She Oblate Founder had, half a century previously, so befriended; and in whose diocese of Marseilles, Mother Emilie de Vialar had established her Head-TIonse. Needless to add. the harmonious relations and mutual goodwill which existed in the case of their respective' Founders, have con. tinned, down the years. between thesis two Religious Orders at the West Australian Gateway. Besides the Fremantle schools already referred to. the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Apparition conduct with equal success c ducational centres in Northam. Albany. and Kalamunda. The latter (a bcys' school). enjoys the luxury of an idgal site, on the Darling Ranges, overlooking the silvery Swan and the city of Perth. During the next few months, a new convent and school will be opened in Cunderdin: and as the foundation occurs in this Centenary year, we presume it will be known as "Centenary House." To-day. within the various schools conducted by this Order of Nuns in W.A.. over a thousand Young Australians are being prepared. on the best religious lines, to face the grim realities of life.

On arriving at Moulmein, then the chief town of Lower Burma, the Sisters received a eordial welcome. They opened a convent school there, which in time became one of the foremost educational establishments in the w hole Province.

For the greater part of a century, they have been engaged in the sacred cause of Catholic education at the Port, and for lesser periods, in several other centres. The successes they have achieved in their schools; the religious influence they have exerted upon various generations of pupils; and the whole-hearted cooperation they have accorded the clergy, are beyond human estimation. The religious education of youth extends its benefits to remote posterity. Like the source of a mighty river, it conveys fertility through many regions. shedding a widespread influence on society, just as light is multiplied through lustrous prismatic glasses. By virtue of her universal magisterial Office and suncrnatural Motherhood, the Catholic Church has always maintained her inai:enable right to watch over the educa -ion of her children. She rightly insists -ot merely upon religious instruction :n her schools, but that all genuine education must be permeated by a religiius atmosphere; otherwise intellectual culture will be of little avail towards human destiny. No wonder. then, we must acknowledge our indebtedness to the various Teaching-Sisterhoods. who have devoted their lives to the sacred cause of Catholic education: and in whose schools, the environment means and end, so dear to the Church, are fully realised. No wonder we regard our Convent Schools as bulwarks of our Holy Faith,
Canclusion. The foregoing sketch pretends only to be a mere °Aline of the history of the Sisters of St Joseph of the Apparition. We have noted the main features in the eventful career of the Foundress, whose "Devotion even unto death.- forms an inspiring record. We have seen her spirit, running like a golden thread, hrough the many-sided activities of her spiritual daughters in various parts ef the world. *When Mother Emilie de Vialar died, there were about 40 Convents, now there are over 100 Housss of the Order scattered over the four Continents of the Globe. Such remarkable expansion and success bear the hallm-rks of Heavenly blessings. Hence we in West Australia, who have exp,rienced the benign influence of those devoted labourers in the Vineyard, join heartedly with them in their celebrations during this Centenary year. Te unite with them in prayer that the Caese of Beatification of their holy oundress may speedily progress, so that her spiritual daughters in many climes may have further reasons for exaltation, and another jewel added to the hallowed Altars of the Church. As for those Rood, disciples of Emilie de Vialar, who are spending their lives amongst us in •Iie sublime work of Catholic education, we wish them every success in their noble mission: and trust that the inspired promise may he fulfilled in their regard: "That they who instruct others unto justice (holiness). may sh:ne like stars for all eternity."

Aunt Bessy's Corner MY CORNERITES,— Cold blows the wintry blast these days, but, like rhubarb, it is good for you, healthy for the body and splendid for the complexion. How often we hear it said that So and So is as changeable as the weather, and generally it is not agreeable to others to be too changeable in our daily lives, yet, how dreadful this old earth would be, and how badly would its animal and vegetable kingdom fare, if God did not give the snows and rains of winter, the sunshine and warmth of summer in their due seasons. So too with us. We would be a sorry lot if we were all moulded to the same pattern; either perpetually dumpy and inclined to emulate the weeping willow in its attitude of drooping grace, orsthe wearer of one of those stickfast smiles that never seem to alter their measurements. The same applies to our Great Adventure. Some weeks I seem surrounded by stamps, postal notes and requests for cards, but there has been a decided change for the worse these last few weeks- and if I went by present conditionsI would abandon the thought of a Lemonade Bottle this year. However, I am not abandoning it, and as Sandy McDougall has offered to give me the bottle- I will trust to our prayers and efforts to fill it just the same, aided, of course, by Little Jane McClory. Therefore our Lemonade Bottle will be officially opened on Our Blessed Lady's Birthday. This will not interfere with the Brigade work, and applications for cards will be welcomed until the end of October, provided that all cash and cards are sent in by December 8th. The L.B. will be the receiving depot of all small offerings. and principally of threepenny bits, as it was last year. So with these few words I will conclude. Once when I was very young, at least not once, but very often, my daddy used give me joy rides on the top of his hoot. 1 generally rode to a rhyme that went "Criss cross, lucks white horse, -Here comes an old woman from Banbury Cross, Rings on her fingers and bells on her
toes,
She will make music wherever she goes." It is different with this Great Adventure. and instead of music I am making lots of appeals for the Busbies; how, then, can the many who pass us by, not want to silence me by giving us the help we ask for? So many do just give a little grunt when they come to my page and grunts won't get us one cent nearer our £100. AUNT BESSY. AUNTY'S AROMATIC BALM. W ungamine, August 21, 1932. Dear Aunt Bessy—Will you please fill in a Busbies' Card for me in remembrance of the late Father McBride, our parish priest, who was always so kind to us all, and so trustful. R.I.P.— Your loving niece, MOSS ROSE. Dear Moss Rose,—Your faithful heart holds some of the fragrance of the real moss rose, and it is an uplift to have as a niece one who remembers the soul of a priest whose brief life was so selflessly spent for the people to whom God had sent him. So many forget their priests when their labour among them is finished, whereas the least return we can make is the prayer that follows them beyond the grave. I trust your offering will speak to the Sacred Heart on behalf of the soul of Father McBride, if it is not already in heaven. AUNT BESSY. Feast of the Assumption. Dear Aunt Bessy.—I am greatly interested in the favours granted through the intercession of the Little Flower. I feel I owe a special debt of gratitude for help received through her, so please publish A cream separator would not work at all. A mechanic had a look at it, and considered the machine hopeless, and I was of the same opinion. as I could not get it in working order, so I promised to fill up one of the cards for the Busbies if it came right. After promising this I was amazed on trying to turn the handle of the machine to find it run smoothly, and now it is in the same perfect order that it was before.—Yours "THISTLEDOWN." affectionately, much Dear "Thistledown,"—How more pleasant you are than the thistle itself, and thank you very much for the thanksgiving offering of 2/6, received in honour of la petite Therese. She seems to do many simple and wonderful things, that same little lady, and one of the ones I have to own up to Is that she has made me take to her in spite of a long "going against" what T thought was a too remarkable and popular devotion, but she has heaped
coals of fire on my head during this appeal for the Bushies, and if we get the £100 by the Feast of the Iminaculate Conception, then I will make amends for my belated appreciation. AUNT BESSY. 26 Elizabeth-street, North Perth, August 18, 1932. Dear Aunt Bessy,—Enclosed please find P.N. and stamps amounting to 2/6, with Prick Card No. 505. Thanks very much for the share in the Holy Mass that you had said for the Cornerites, and please send me another card.— Yours sincerely, (MISS) D. HARDY. Dear Miss Hardy.—You are one of my regular returns now, and thanks very much for your continued interest. One thing about my Cornerites is that they seem to bo good Catholics, judging from the many appreciations I have received of the Mass which was offered. It has made me very happy. AUNT BESSY.
Perth, August 24, 1032. Dear Aunt Bessy,—Enclosed please find 2/0 to fill one of your spare cards. Hope you will obtain your goal.— Yours sincerely E.P. and M.P. Dear E.P. and M.P.—If the goal is not reached, it will not be due to lack of your united interest and assistance. I know not why it is, but, nearly always at Benediction your initials come to my mind, and so you receive honourable mention to the Holy One in the Host. May He bless you both. AUNT BESSY.
The Back o' Beyond, August 9, 1932. Dear Aunt Bessy,—Having duly noted with relief that it is not essential to be good looking in order to be a member of your Brigade, I hereby offer myself for enrolment. I will not ask you to send me a card, but I will send along the 2/6 on the 25th., and you may sit on the side of your bed and punch holes in it. I hope the 800 will be duly returned in a state of disrepair by September 8. I hope Sandy Mac has recovered from his encounter with the Maggie by this time. His last letter was a gem. I enclose a few stamps for a few pricks. Murchison, August. 1932.

South Perth, August 24. Dear Aunt Bessv,—I am in a bit of a fix, so I thought of you. as I know that you are generous with advice and that is why I am writing. There is a lot of noise and fuss over here at present. All the people here are talking about the dance that is to be held on the 14th of next month. I don't mind them talking about the dance, if they did not talk at me about it. You must remember that I have sent You a TWO OLD WOMEN FROM BRIDGE- Prick Card this year. and I gave you TOWN, an extra 2/6 in remembrance of my kilts, and even though I only pricked A Rhyme to Two Old Women. one hole, it did not matter to You Although I know not who you are, and the Bushies' cause, provided you Henceforth you'll be my guiding star, c,rot the card and the price of the other twentv-nine pricks.

Dear Sandy McDougall.—It is my most painful duty to tell you straight out that I think you are very mean. It grieves me to have to tell you this as only recently when I saw where von were regarded as being "stingy," I took your part and said sou were not.

Pay for your tic. ket lace a man, since you are not in circumstances that prevent you being a little generous. Anyway, I do not know why they would expect a boy of fifteen to go to a dance. I think it far too young though, of course, when the dance is for sueh a worthy purpoee it should be patronized, at least, by every good parishioner. Your suggestion re a 33 and a third per cent. on every card is absolutely preposterous. am not a commission asent, and anybody working for the Bushies does it out of charity for the children in the bush, and for the love of God.

A LAUGH
WITH HIM
This was too much for a man in the row in front, and eventually he turned and said, angrily, "Confound you and your mutterings, sir!" " Well, he can't do it,I tell you. I'll bet you he can't!" was the reply. "Can't do what?" "Put that big fiddle under his chin! .

They decided to try him first on nap. Carefully they dealt his cards—ace, king, queen, jack, and nine—after making certain that the ten and four small ones lay together in another hand.

All day Bobby had been asking questions, and his elder brother was beginning to feel the strain. "I say, Harry," piped the little fellow, after a particularly awkward question, 'why doesn't the sea ever dry up?" "Because it's like you—it can't," retorted the exasperated Harry. A young reporter on a country paper knew a little French, and liked to air it whenever possible. He was sent to a wedding, and, for some reason, mentioned that the bride "looked au fait." But his pride evaporated the next day when he saw in the paper, thanks to an equally intelligent compositor, that "the bride looked all feet"! Bernard was a bashful lover, but only because he stuttered and felt self-conscious about it. One evening- when he had called op his sweetheart and mutely presented her with a box of chocolates, it suddenly dawned on him that neither had spoken for the last fifteen minutes. Frantically he tried to think of something to say. "I—I—I say, darling, h-h-hoW's your mother?" he asked at last. "Not that I c-care t-t-twopence, but it in-m-makes me talk." It was at an orchestral concert, and after gazing for some time at the bass fiddle player, a man in the stalls muttered. "He'll never do it; he'll never do it." A t length the title of the first number was announced, whereupon the mutterer continued his remark, louder each time.
On a wet day a motorist had a skid in a big town, and in its gyrations the car knocked down a lamp-post. A police officer in a long white waterproof coat came to his assistance and helped the poor chap out of the overturned car. The driver was a trifle stunned. He looked at the prostrate lamp-post and then at the white-coated policeman, and murmured, "How's that, umpire? * It was midnight.

"Why, what's the matter?" "Matter? It's the end of everything. It means ruin!" "Here, tell me what's up. Perhaps I can help you." Smith clenched his fists until his knuckles showed white. "No one can help me," he said. "I've At come to the end of all things! eight o'clock I telephoned to my wife and gave her a perfectly good excuse for not coming straight home, and"— his voice sank to a whisper—"I've forgotten what I said."
