Simple Lessons in Gregorian Chant (By Rev. T. W. Purcell, 0.M.I., B.A.)
LESSON IV. Ttme.—No doubt the question of time has already presented itself to you. One of the first things we notice in taking up a piece of plainchant music is the absence of any time signaAgain we soon notice the abture. sence of the usual bars. In modern music the bar plays an essential part. It is the bar which by dividing the music into equal parts, serves to indicate the position of the accent, and so regulates the rhythm. It is the regular position of the accent, falling with mathematical precision, that gives to this music the name of measured music. The accent varies with the time, falling on the first beat in double and triple time, and strongly on the first, and subordinately on the third in four time, etc. Now it is precisely in this respect that modern music and plainchant difHere is the essential difference, fer. and here the real difficulty in singing The the chant for the beginner. rhythm of plainchant is not measured, This free rhythm often but is free. demands a quick and unaccented rendering where we would naturally delay or emphasise, or do both. I say naturally, because the measured rhythm of modern music is with us second nature, up to the preesnt we have known ne other.
what is in reality an arythmic series of sounds. Now, in our modern music the first note of every bar receives this The stress, called the strong beat. time signature indicates to us how often this stress recurs, and it does so quite regularly for the whole piece, or at least for a considerable portion of it when it may be changed, but the change will then be observed strictly for a considerable period. Now plainchant also has rhythm, but not of this measured type. Two bars of two time may be followed by one of three time, etc. For instance, the time bars of the Asperges run as follows: 2 3 2 2 3 2 3 2 2 2 2 3 3 2 3 2 2 2 3 2 2 2 2 2 3 3, The first down as far as the psalm. note receives the stress or ictus, or rhythmic touch, which gives to an otherwise unintelligible series of sounds a definite rhythmic meaning.
correspond to the comma of punctuation.
The most common mistakes in this r espect are:
The Virgula is in practice the same as the quarter bar. Placed close to a quarter bar, it indicates an editor's correction of what he considers faulty rhythmical division.
1. Stopping at the quarter and half bars.
From this it must be clear what a great difference there is between the Gregorian music and that to which we It is the difference are accustomed between measured and free rhythm. W have a similar parallel in literature, the rhythm of poety and prose. Good prose must be rhythmical, so must The former has a free good poetry. rhythm, the latter's rhythm is regular, We might call plainchant, measured. from this point of view, the prose of music.
Breathing. —Indicating the musical pauses of divisions, the bars point out also the correct breathing places. On no account must the singer take a breath at any place in the music where there is no bar. If he does so, he immediately spoils the rhythm. It would be a mistake, quite as bad as the following one in reading. Here is a sem tence: When he had gone ten yards, he turned around. The comma points out the correct place to pause. Suppose that I read it as follows: Nhen he had (pause) gone ten (pause) yards he turned around. You can see immediately that it would be quite ridiculous. The sentence would have no sense. It would be equally ridiculous to pause for breath or otherwise in singing plainchant —it would equally destroy the musical sense of the sentence.
The Han Bar marks the larger divisions within the complete musical sentence. We might compare it to the semi-colon of punctuation. The Full Bar marks the end of the musical sentence; it is the full stop. The Double Bar marks the end of a piece, or the end of a section where another choir takes up the chant.
Why has plainchant this fret rhythm? It is because "Gregorian chant is pre-eminently verbal music: it has no existence apart from words: it is so supple and sensitive to the dig. nity of the text that the melodic phrase only follows and weds the literary period. One could never say that the words had been 'set to music': the music springs up out of the words themselves, in which it lay latent and contained in embyro. Dom Mocquereati's definition 'melodieus langue' ( melodious language) describes the chant far better than music."—(Dom Sunol.)
What is Rhythm?—We all know what rhythm is, though we might find some difficulty in putting it into so many words. To put it in a homely way, we might say it is the swing or We find rhythm in movea thing. ment, such as walking, and especially dancing, and also in poetry, prose, and Why is it that people who muisc. dance well find it very hard to stand still if dance music is being played? It is because the swing of the music, or the rhythm of the music, calls for its counterpart in rhythmic movement, and so they get up and dance. Now Bars.—The above quotation alco rhythm is much more a matter of mind gives us some indication of the funcFor instance, two people than ear. tion of the bar.§ of plainchant.

2. At the full bar and the double bar a rest of one beat must be made, when a good breath should be taken. If the double bar marks the end of a verse of a hymn, a rest of two or even three beats may be taken: if it simply marks the point at which another choir takes up the melody, it will be the same as the full bar. Most of the mistakes in plainchant are made through faulty breathing and pausing. Too much emphasis cannot be placed on the above rules. Note also that Rule I says that a breath may be taken, and not must be taken. A t the quarter bar and virgula, it is better to take no breath if one can manage to sing through to the half bar or full bar without.
Demonstration.—Get out your gramaphone record of the Asperges and the K yrie (page 24 in your text book), listen carefully to the singing from the point of view of pauses. Watch the music carefully. Especially notice how the quarter and half bars are rendered, notice how the whole of each Kyrie eleison, and Christe eleison, except the very last, is sung on one breath. Do the same with the other Pay particular notice to the pieces. quarter bars in the Sanctus and Benedictus. Speed or Tempo.—.-1f you realise the import of the above rules, and especially if you have tried to put them into practice, you will realise that the tempo of plainchant is not slow. If you drag it out you will find that you have to pause for breath where no pause is allowed; or you will he so puffed out at the quarter or half bar. that you will have to take a longer rest than is allowed, thut: spoiling the rhythm.

Note the following rules carefully: 1. A short breath may be taken at the quarter bar, the virgula and the half bar, provided that they are preceded by a double (dotted) note. The time in which to take this breath must be borrowed from the length of the previous note. There must be no pause here. There must be no break in the music, which must flow on uninterruptedly to the end of the musical sentence.
2. Breathing after a double note where there is no bar of any kind.

It is not long, however, before we find that the two elements are beginning to combine; and we soon meet, astonishingly, with a third quality of the poet's genius. It is strange that imagination always has this power to surprise us. No matter if we have taught ourselves that poetry cannot begin to exist without it: no matter how watchful and alert we think we are, it will spring upon us unaware taking possession of the mind with amazing exhilaration. That is especially true of the quality as it is found in Rupert Brooke's poetry. For, however you have schooled yourself, you are not looking for imaginative powei of the first degree in alliance with sensuous joy so keen, and irony so acute Yet in a piece called "In Examina. tion," the miracle is wrought. This, too, is an early poem. which may be the reason why one can disengage the threads so easily: whilst a notable fact is that the delicate fabric of it is woven directly out of a commonplace bit of human experience. The poet is engaged with a scene that is decidedly unpromising for poetical treatment— all the stupidity of examination, with its dull, unhappy "scribbling Fools." ho! from quiet skies. In through my window rri , Sun! And my eyes Were dazzled and drunk with misty gold.

And a Face unshaded . . Till the light faded; And they were but fools agai& foots unknowing. Still scribbling, blear-eyed and stolid imnnartals. There are at least two poems. "The Fish" and "Dining-Room Tea," in which imaginative power prevails over every other element; and if imagination be the supreme poetic quality-. these are Rupert Brooke's finest achieveibent They are, indeed, very remarkable and significant examples of modern poetry, both in conception and in treatment. In both pieces the subjects are of an extremely difficult character One, that of "The Fish." is beyond the range oaf human experience altogether: and the other is only just within it, and known, one supposes. to comparatively few. The imaginative flight is therefore bold: it is also lofty, rapid. and well sustained. In "The Fish" we see it creating a new materia1 world, giving substance and credibility to a strange new order of sensation:
ive, intangible; on the bare edge, in fact, of sanity and consciousness. It is that momentary revelation which comes once in a lifetime perhaps, of the reality within appearance. It comes suddenly, unheralded and unaccountable; it is gone again with the swiftness and terror of a lightningflash. But in the fraction of a second that it endures, aeons seem to pass and things unutterable to be revealed. Only a poet of undoubted genius could re-create such moments, for on any lower plane either imagination would flag or intellect would be baffled, with results merely chaotic. And only to one whose quick and warm humanity held life's common things so dear could the vision shine out of such a homely scene. But therein Rupert Brooke shows so clearly as the poet of his day: that through the familiar joys of comradeship and laughter: through the simple concrete things of a material world—the "pouring tea and cup and cloth."—reality gleams eternal. When you were there, and you, and you, Happiness crowned the night: I too. Laughing and looking, one of all, I watched the quivering lamplight fall Flung all the dancing moments by With jest and glitter. . Till suddenly, and otherwhence. I looked upon your innocence.

Article I.
Genesis and Exodus
By F.R.H.S. The history of the origins of the world and of mankind is told in the first chapters of Genesis, which, with the four following Books, are the work of Moses acting under Divine .Inspiration. The subsequent historical references in the Bible, pertain only to the history—And that a religious history—of one particular branch of the human It is race, viz., the chosen people. not a purely scientific history, such as we are accustomed to to-day—but written acording to the primitive ideas of the time at which the events took place. In the chronology of the Bible, the system used is that arranged by the late Archbishop Ussher, following the data in the Hebrew text itself Some difficulties arise with regard to it, but the approximate dates, as far as they go, are confirmed by whatever dates of contemporary secular history are available "It should, however, be remembered," says Father PopA O.P. "when considering any conflicting dates, that there was no scientific method of dating events in primitive time.s, and that whatever system was evolved was meant only as a guide to the memory and not as a clue to history." On the other hand, the dates of contemporary secular history have never been claimed by scholars as more than opproximately correct, and cannot themselves be conscientiously used as an ultimate standard for testing the Biblical dates It is Usher's system which gives us the years between the Fall and the Redemption as four thousand. The period from Adam to Noe would cover about half of this—interesting to us who have not yet•reached that distance under the New Law
and other parts of Africa. The posterity of Japheth peopled nearly all Europe and Northern Asia. Central Asia was occupied by the children of Sent. The Bible, being merely a his tory of the chosen race, treats only ot the Semites, or posterity of Sem, to which the Hebrews belonged. They settled in Central Asia. Several of their States, small at first, gradually became great Kingdoms. This" was particularly the case with Assyria and Although Babylon.

Assyria, the second great power of ancieat history, had its origin in the valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates Different kingdoms followed one an other in this region, of which the earliest was a Chaldean or Babylonian Kingdow in the South, and which was the birthplace of Abraham. The Assyrian Empire proper did not develop for roughly another thousand years after the migration of Abraham.

Jacob received from' an angel the name Istaiel, for which reason his descendants were called Israelites. His t welve sons 'recame the fathers of the twelve tribes of Israel. The misfortunes of one of these sons—Joseph—clue to the jealousy of his brothers, took him into Egypt, where he became a favourite at Court. Joseph, in turn, incluced his family to retire to Egypt, on account of the famine which ravaged the land of Cl anaan. The Israelites lived in Egypt for about 200 years. In the beginning they were well treateei but with the advent of a new King, "who knew not Joseph," they were subject to persecution, and this continucd till their Aeliverance by Moses, who leo them back to the Promised Land. The migration from Egypt, or the exodus, as it is called, took place about 2500 years after the creation of man, or 1500 years before the Christian Era. During the journeying of the Iseishe, ,, through the deserts of Arabia, Moses received from God, on Mount Sinai, the Mosaic law, the most important crdinances of which were the Ten COWmandments. In the Christian Era thic moral law was retained while the ceremonial law connected -with it was re. y oked to suit the new conditions. After forty years' wandering in the desert. .• which they were condemned in punis!-:. ment for their repeated revolts and ingratitude, the Israelites arrived in sight of the Promised Land. They were ana1ly put in possession of it by Josue. the successor of Moses. In course of time. _Josue conquered all tl e country and, by lot, divided it arn-ng the twelve. tribes of Israel.

Catholics and Socialism
Replying to a welcome by the District President of the Hibernian Society, at the Fifty-Second Meeting of the New South Wales District, in the State Theatre Building, Sydney, His Grace the •Co-adjutor Archbishop of Sydney. Most Rev. Di. Sheehan. said:
A s many of you IIibernians are supporters of the Labour Party, and as the Labour Party has recently reaffirmed its adherence to the Socialistic oh'five, I think it well to explain to you, as briefly as I can, how you stand in the eyes of the Church. No Catholic can be a Socialist in the sense in which His Holiness the Pope understands that term. For him, and for continentals generally, Socialism, even when not openly antiGod, is so tainted with paganism as to be irreconcilable with Christianity; it economics raised to the level of a religion, the religion of material wellbeing, the religion which assumes that the sole purpose of man's existence on earth is the attainment of temporal prosperity. But in Australia and other British countries, Socialism has often quite a different connotation; it progesses no opposition to God or religion, and confines itself exclusively to adyo',Mg a system of ownership by which it believes the general good will he 'lest promoted. Now, I take it that the Socialism in which you are interested is of this. order. At the first glance it appears to be quite harmless; but a closer examination may lead N-OU t o revise your opinion. "What is wrong. you may ask, with the proposition that the State should become the sole owner of all the sources of wealth? Cannot the citizens transfer their rights to the State. divesting themselves of all wealth-preducing property, and retaining only such goods as they require for personal use and enjoyment? The citizens may certainly do so without any breach of morality—that is. so far as they themselves are concerned. But what about their children? Why
should their children, without their own consent, be deprived of the natural right to own the sources of wealth? That is where Socialism offends against justice. "Socialism, then, as an objective is morally unsound. Does it follow that in no circumstances could one vote for it? No. Though we are bound to regard Socialism as an evil, we may find that, in the actual conditions in which we live, the only alternativce to it is an evil either just as great or greater. Similarly, the present system of uncontrolled. Capitalism, with its many and well-known abuses, is morally unsound, and cannot lawfully be supported by anyone, except as an alternative to an equal or greater evil. "Are, then, the two systems. Socialism and unreformed Capitalism, to he r egarded as morally on the same level? Perhaps so, except for this point, that a system of Socialism could not easily be introduced—some would say, could not even conceivably be introduced— without grave injustice to present o wners. But, on the other hand, if we suppose Socialism to be o•se,s t ablished, the effort to dethrone it, and to return to Capitalism, might very possibly involve problems in justice which would not be easy of solution. "If you look at the Pope's ideal you find that, though nominally Capitalist, it has many of the features of Socialism. It is Capitalist in so far as it r ecognises the individual's right to accumulate wealth; it is Socialist in so fat as it advocates State ownership of certain services, State control of industry in general. State control—but not necesrarilv political control—of credit and banking, and the extinction of the flower of the financial magnates or money lords. His ideal, translated into a series of propositions, woolcl give Yen r, programme which would not he a mere Tibh's Eve objective like veur present one: it would set up a system which, while rewarding genius. industry. and thrift, would, at the same time. prevent the golden stream of
wealth from filling just a few cisterns and leaving the others empty: a system which would be free from the leaden weight of officialdom, free from that awful swarm of inspectors and red-tape men, the bane of Socialism, and yet would provide sufficient surveillance to prevent the recurrence of present evils. "It seems to me that to-clay the world is irt such a mess that Laboui and its opponents might be well advised to scrap their game of politics and unite on a common programme. In Australia and elsewhere, the spirit with which both sides are obsessed. the spirit of 'all take and no give.' unless it is banished without delay, will lead to civil war and widespread ruin." Bro. J. P. Byrne. supporting a vote of thanks to the Archbishop for his address, declared that, looking for guidance from their ecclesiastic-el authori ties, they found none mote fitted t . give it than Archbishop Sheehan.

THE RECORD.
FAITH OF OUR FATHERS By E. J.
The Divinity of Christ la considering the testimony of the Church to the Divinity of Her Founder. let us take the period of Her early history, which concluded with the Council of Nicaea, 327 A.D. The testimony of this period is found in the various creeds put forward in the early Christian symbolism, in the words of the early martyrs. The Creeds. In the Apostles' Creed, familiar to all, we have: "I believe in God, the Father Almighty. Creator of Heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord,'' •a plain statement of Two inbelief in Christ's Divinity. stance.-- are recorded, when public profession of faith was made officially by The first is the declaration the of the Church- in .Terusalem: "We believe in one God, and in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, His only ;Son. arsl born from the Father, true God." The second is the declaration of the ;Thurch of raeserea: "We believe one Lord, Jesus Christ, the also Word • %f God, God from God, Light from Light, Life from Life, the First Rom c ill, being begotten from the Paths r !•efore all time, and through whom things have their being." These ...fficial professions of faith es. tablich loevorirl doubt the belief and te:o'hio the earl' Christian Church.

All of them itslicate that He was believed to be Of these symbols, the one most familiar and most frequently used was that of a fish In the Roman Catacorobs, sometimes the figure of a fish is round. sometimes the Greek name f - a fish, which is translated thus: I X.T.H U.S. Each one of these :ctters represent a word, and the five words, when phrased together. mean : "ICSUS Christ, Son of God, Savinur."

Blessed Oliver Plunket
A RCHBISHOP PLUNKET. In the long history of the Irish persecutions there is no brighter name than that of Oliver Plunket, Archbishop of Armagh, and Primate of All Ireland, whose Cause for canonisation is expected to reach the final stages in Though his apostothe near future. late was brief, he made extraordinary efforts to bring the blessings of education to the Catholic youth of Ireland, and gave himself without reserve to the task of tending the flame of an outlawel faith. In a thatched hut the saintly prelate subsisting on oaten bread, preserved the principle of ecclesiastical organisation. His death was compassed by perjury and fraud—his only crime was that he was a Catholic Bishop His trial was a farce: No moss heroic life was given for the Faith than Oliver Plunket's, when the gallows at Tyburn claimed him for a victim. Of his death, Dr. Drennan, Archbishop of Cashel, wrote in an official letter to Propaganda: "He displayed such a serenity of countenance, suca a tranquillity of mind and elevation of soul, that he seemed rather a spouse hastening to a marriage feast, than a culprit led forth to the scaffold." Blessed Oliver Plunket was one of the victims of the infamous Titus Oates' persecution.

An souls' Day, keeping up a custom esiablished for the last fifteen years, the first Mass was celebrated in the C emetery at 6 a.m. A number of parishioners made the early morning pil. grenage in honour of the dead; some walking out the two miles, and others going by car. It was a beautiful, still, coo/ morning, the birds singing, and pleasant sunshine gilding the tops of ike gum trees, and the ripening corn on the undulating slopes in the fields. The !lase was celebrated by Dean Hawes, on the rough stone altar, with its large wooden cross erected in the Catholic portion of the burial ground At the :onclusion the priest sprinkled with holy water the graves, many of them having lighted candles placed on the mounds or marble slabs. The congregation followed, reciting the De Pro. fusdis and other prayers. At 7 o'clock adas, was sung in the church. The Nn1 ohildren, who had been effieiently taught by the Presentation Newt. rendered very creditably the rbenchant Requiem Mass.

The annual appeal for St. Vincent's Foundling Home and St. Joseph's Girls Orphanage was made last week-end. A number of supporters sold badges in the streets to raise funds for the maintenance of these institutions, which are conducted by the Sisters of Mercy, who are doing wonderful work for orphans and those other little helpless ones called foundlings. They have under their care in St. Vincent's Home 100 little ones, ranging in age from a few weeks These are nursed to six years old. with the tenderest care and charity In St. Joseph's Orphanage 160 girls of varying ages are being cared for The Sisters in these trying days find it difficult to meet the demands made upon them by their dependents, awl the annual appeal always a necessity, was an urgent one this year. Thstreet appeal resulted in a sum of £203 The response was fairly generous. A nother appeal will be made later in the shape of a gift afternoon at the Foundling Home, Leederville, when friends of the institution will have an opportunity of bringing their gifts to the good Sisters for the benefit of the little ones. • According to a press message pubfished in the "West Australian," his Lordship Dr. Barry, Bishop of Gout, burn (N S.W.), speaking at Young, on the 6th inst., is reported to have made a Nigoroti.: defence of the State Lottery conticterl by Government authority in New Soath Wales. "The law," said his Lordship, "is the norm of morality. and this law is partly written in the hearts of men, and is interpreted ' that de ate faculty of the soul which we call ciasscience. It is also express, ed in the decalogne, and in pronouncements of Our Lord 'Jesus Christ which are recorded in the New Testament. Actions that are in conformity with God's law are good .and actions that are contrary to God's law are evil far as I "an judge. the State lottery is not in itself an evil thing. Those who eabecribe do so freely. The drawing is above auspicion, and the conditions are known to the w?iole community. We find ever in the Sacred Scripture that the Apostles had recourse lottery in apportioning a very s-aluable prize That prize was member-di:1, the Apostolic College, and Matthias w" , the winner. If the lottery was evil in itself, then the Apostles were guilty of wicked action, yet the Scriptures seems to approve." It was said, added, the Bishop. that the lottery developed the gambling spirit. So did the game of marbles. It must he said for the lottery that it was a source of much assistance to the sick, and that was more than could be said of other institutions If opponents of the lottery were logical. they must also put a stop to horse and dog racing, to speculation r2n the stock exchange, and to gambling in essential commodities. He feared t hat there were some who would strain at the gnat and swallow the camel. • On Friday, the 4th. inst. the death occurred of Mrs. Annie Louise Franklin. of Ellesmere-road.

St. Patrick's Boys Champion Choirs RECITAL
Tuesday, Nov. 15 A t last years Musical Festival, Dr. Thomas Wood, M.A., F.R.C.M. Mus.Bac. (Oxon), said that the tone of the winning choir (St. Pat. 'rick's) was as good as anything he had heard in any part of the world. and that W.A. had a boys' choir that would make an impressiot, anywhere." The Adjudicator at t his year's Festival WAS SO impressed that he compared the tone of this choir of boys to the world famous Westminster Cathedral lioos:' Choir. He paid a specie. ;sit to the school so that he could see and hear them at their work in their "everyday surroundings." Don't miss bearing them at His Majesty's. on Tuesday night next. Every one should see "Fabiola," as it will be staged on that night. Box plans at Nicholson's-3/- reserved, and 1/-.
The stock of the "ex-priest" and "ex nun" seems to have fallen below profit value—the species is evidently defunct ---at all events as money-catchers on the public platform. The bottom has been knocked out of the market, possibly because the public has become more enlightened and the race of fools The bogus ex-priest and ex-nun less. must now try other means for raising the wind ,and be more careful in their methods. One of the "species" slipped badly in America recently. Listed as "John Farrell, bogus priest." he had just finished a sentence on a bad cheque charge in the Colorado State Prison, and not long after, on a similar charge, he was sentenced to 10 years in the Kansas State Prison. His masquerading as a priest for the purpose of passing illicit cheques was a clumsy piece of work, and only a very stupid. person could have been hoodwinked by his tale of woe. • "The Presbyterian." the oldest Presbyterian paper in the Empire. which has had 100 years of continuous circulation, in a timid comment on the Pope's latest Encyclical upon world distress, as a set off to other things, stays: "We like Rome for one thing; there is no 'pussy-footing' about essential Christian truths, and there seems to be no fear of those who reject the supernatural." Should the moody old Dean Inge and the egregious bishop Barnes read these lines, their little hearts will surely miss a beat. • Rev.

General Conference. A general conference of the Society was held in the Cathedral Hall on Monday night last, and there was a large attendance of members. On the starious matters brought before the -hair, there was considerable discussion, and members departed late at night buoyed up with hopes of a brilliant future for the Society. The establishment of a swimming and tennis club was capably handled by Mr. Flanagan, and if the members but take Monday night's enthusiasm to the s wimming pool of the A.N.A. and Crystal Tennis Courts. they should do well. The payment of Society subscriptions was especially stressed during the conference. It is the intention of the committee to utilise all subscriptions in the interest of the members, while they put all money raised by various entertainments into a reserve fund, to be utilised at a later period in the purchase of a unique club room C.Y.M.S. and Cathedral Garden Fete. The Catholic Young Men's Society, in conjunction with the Catholic Young Ladies' Club, have decided to support the Sacred Heart Stall at the Garden Fete. With this object in view. a Special Dance will be run in the Cathedral Hall late in November, or early in December The date is not yet definitely decided, but all members of both societies shall be duly notified. and we expect the Sacred Heart Stall to top the list So .zrt to work and organise for all your worth.

First Communion at Highgate The first Sunday in November has now become an annual day of great importance in the large parish of the Sacred Heart. Highgate, for it is on that day each year that the selected little children attending the Convent School receive their first Holy Cornnnmion. Last Sunday, November 7, was no x ception, and sixty-three happy. inn.) cent small boys and girls approached the altar rails for the first time to rt.• ceive their Lord and God in the great Sacrament of the Eucharist. The eight o'clock Mass was celebrated by Rev. Father Bernard, and the spacious church was packed to over. flowing with friends and relatives of the privileged children. As is usual on this occasion, the front of the church was reserved for those about to welcome Our Lord into their hearts for the first time, and the music that came from the lips of the little ones as they sang the various appro. priate hs-mns. was something that not one of those who stood or sat behind t hem will easily forget The training of the good Sisters o• Notre Dame des Missions was manifest in every movement of the sixty-three small children on this memorable occasion. The recital of the Acts before Conimunion caused many of the older people to cast their minds back to such another happy day in their own live, when they also were waiting in anxious expectancy for the reception of the King of Kings, and many of those present were prepared for the great event by the same holy nuns at the same school. One could not differentiate between the appearance of boys and girls, as all looked perfect pictures of realised joy and happiness as they returned from the altar rails with Our Lord within their breasts. A very appropriate and inspiring ad. dress was delivered by Rev. Father Bernard, after the little ones had received their First Holy Communion from his hands. When Mass was over, the joyfu: band of God's little friends filed bac', to the Convent, where, in one of the school rooms. a most tempting breakfast had been prepared, and here souvenirs of the rgeat occasion were given to each child. The decoration of the room was. greatly admired by the host of friends who followed the happy procession from the church, and it was very apparent the Sisters had spared no pains to make their youthful pupils extremely happy on this great day of 1932 The morning was certainly beautiful. and the manner in which the sun shone forth would make one think that nature would not be outdone in paying homage .to the great Creator on such an auspicious occasion.
General News The usual weekly dance which is held in the Cathedral Hall every Friday even;ng, will be brought to a conclusir,n with a Grand Carnival on Friday n's•ct. The Committee are pleased to rei-,-*t a record season, and hope to see all natrons on Friday to conclude a very successful season.

MY CORN E R November is speeding swiftly away, and so much of it has passed without my saying a pleading word for those Holy Souls who have preceded us beyond the bourne. To those who have loved and lost land which of us has not felt the poignant partings which death has brought into our lives?), no pleading word should be necessary, nor should prayers for our dead be limitWe ed to the month of November. remember our departed ones, it is true. but in a selfish way—living on the memory of all they have been to us. and sighing for the lonely voids their deaths have made. Yet, if we live on, we must pay the penalty of seeing our loved ones "fall like leaves in wintry weather," and how often in the full maturity of our years, and when far from the home of our childhood, we, too, can repeat: " . . let me hear The name I used to run at, when a child, From innocent play, and leave the cowslips piled, To glance up in some face that proven me dear With the look of its eyes. I miss the clear, Fond voices, which, being drawn and reconciled Into the music of Heaven's undefiled, Call me no longer Silence on the bier, While I call God . . call God!" The faces, the voices, have gone. and for many of ue. the heart that held us most dear—the heart of a mother—has ceased to beat, but we can never be sure that the souls of our dead have yet been drawn "into the music of Heaven's undefiled." so let us continue to "call God" on their behalf until such time as God's voice will in turn call us, and when we, in our own purgatorial need, will call to those who may mourn us for assuagement of our pain.

However, I will pray for you, and thank you for the donation to Sandy's bottle—it is proving a lucky bottle, but, oh! how I wish I had had my possession of it insured, as I live in daily dread ot him making a law suit over it.

A.B. is very grateful to Gwen„ Ethel and John Brennan, of Greenbushes, for their P.N. of 3s., which they for the Bushies, along with collected pricking their cards. It all goes to show that if we get that £150 it will be in great measure due to the interested work of the young nieces and nephews, as well as the generosity of the growa-upe. A.B.'s heart has also been stirred by a real silver half-crown sent in "FromAn Admirer." She did npt know she had one, and she certainly did not have a half-crown in her treasure bag before either, so the Admirer and the gift received a warm welcome. The "remains" of what appears to have been an engagement ring fell out of the old stamps this week, and A.B. is not sure whether the ring was sent as a donation, or whether it got into the old stamps by accident. If the owner of same wishes to regain possession, will she kindly send in a description of the rin to Aunt Bessy? If no claim is made between this and December 8th., the ring will be diiposeci of foe the Bushies.

The world outside lay very still, but the atmosphere inside that little room was fraught with emotions; memories skipped back over the span of thirty- years, and were made to live again by the man who sat there lost among his thoughts. And for the girl a new world was opened, and the vista of what might have been rolled open before her mind's eye, and she, too, sat on very still. The man's sigh broke the ,:pel woven around them.

She followed her husband down the stairs and seated herself opposite him at the breakfast-table. "I hope you weren't annoped because I sharpened a pencil with your razor, darling?" she' innocently asked. "Yes, I was----twice," he replied, patiently. "Twice, darling?" she echosd. "Yes, after I had given up trying to shave, I tried to write with the pencil," he returned. Jones was suffering from acute indigestion, and his doctor had told him that if he laughed fifteen minutes before each meal his pains would go. One day in a City restaurant, and prior to ordering his meal, Junes commenced his little laugh. Another customer seated at a nearby table immediately got up and walked over to Jones. "What ever are you laughing at, sir? - he inquired, in rather strained tones. "I'm laughing for my liver," Jones told him. “H'm!" murmured the stranger, rather puzzled. "I suppose I'd better start that too. I ordered mine twenty minutes ago." Peck: "You will never get the dog to mind you, my dear." Mrs. Peck: "I shall, with patience. You were just as troublesome yourself at first!" " 'Ere, mister," said a lad to a fishmonger, ''I want a 'addick!" "Finnan!" asked the shopman. The lad looked at him suspiciously. "No, a fick-unr he replied. "Why," said an American school-inspector, "should we celebrate Washing ton's birthday more than we do mine?" "Because he never told a lie, sir!' shouted a little boy. "Gerald, dear." said Gerald's aunt, who .was a nervous passenger. "aren't you sometimes afraid you'll lose control of the car?" "Constantly," replied Gerald. "I'm t wo instalments behind already." A street vendor of fruit and nuts, wishing to stop people from handling and pinching the fruit, thus softening and spoiling it, and then not purchasing, put up this notice: "If you must pinch the fruit, please pinch the cocoanuts." A small boy was asked by the Diocesan Incpector how many Commandments there were, and he answered: "Ten." "And what would happen. my boy, if you were tempted to break one of t hose Commandments?" "Then there'd be nine," was the prompt reply. While carrying a ladder through the crowded streets of a busy city a man had the misfortune to break a Rlateglass window. Dropping the ladder, he started off at a run. The shopkeeper, who had witnessed the mishap, dashed after him and caught him by the collar. "See here." he cried angrily, "you have broken my window." "Sure I have.!" assented the man. " And didn't you see me running home to get the money to pay for it?"
The Scoutmaster was teaching his troop'to be kind to animals. Suddenly one of the listeners jumped up with a yell and then burst into tears, startling the rest of the Troop. " Why, Johnnie, what's the matter?" asked the Scoutmaster. "Oh, sir," whined the lad, "I've just gone and put my hand on a wasp." - "Johnnie," said the Scoutmaster, "a Scout should be brave. He shouldn't cry when he's had an accident." "It isn't that, sir," protested JohnMe. "I'm afraid I've hurt the poor little wasp." • se "Yes, Johnny; Lapland is rather thinly populated."How many laps to the mile, teacher?" "l've had this car for years, and never had a wreck." You mean you've had this wreck for years and never had a car." Griggs: "I should say the two keys to success are luck and pluck." Briggs: "You mean luck in finding some one to pluck!" Max-: "What's that for, Charlie?" Charlie, aged six: "That's a trap to catch the wretched little birds that watch and whisper to mamma everything I do!" "The trouble is that the chief has favourites. You can't deny it!" "I won't deny it; but have You noticed his favourites do all the hard work in the place?" Magistrate: "The defendant swears ht' was perfectly sober." Policeman: "tie was absolutely intoxicated. if he had been perfectly sober he would have known he was drunk and not made a disturbance." Mrs. Miggs: "Yes, most of the servants are as independent and as impertinent as they can be! Now. I believe it's best to take a country girl and train her in the way she should go, and then—" Mr. Biggs: "And then she goes!" Two newsboys in the gallery witnessed a performance of -Hamlet." In the last scene, after Hamlet had killed Laertes and the King, and the Queen had died of poison and Hamlet of a poisoned wound, one of the newsboys exclaimed: "Bill, what a time that must have been for stop presses." A boy fresh from school was given an appointment by a business man, with a view to entering into his employment. After testing his knowledge in vani ous directions, the interviewer rapped out: "The first essentials in business is a large fund of general knowledge. Tell me, my boy. for what was Louis XIV chiefly responsible?" Without a second's hesitation the boy answered: "Louis XV., sir." Mrs. Goldman had engaged a new maid. She was a good girl, truthful, honest, very willing and obliging, but she lacked tact. One evening, when her mistress was going to the theatre, the maid noticed that a favourite rope of pearls was missing. "Oh. madam." she cried, "where are your lovely pearls to-night?" "I'm not wearing them, Winnie." replied Mrs. Goldman. "I don't fancy them to-night." "Oh. what a pity!" exclaimed the maid. "An' they make' you look so like a real lady!"
