Mass in Penal Days in Ireland

NDER Cromwell and Elizabeth, especially after she was ex-communicated by the Pope, the celebration of Holy Mass was banned in Ireland. Cromwell, Elizabeth and James disliked Parliaments. After the so-called Rebellion of 1641 Cromwell abolished the Irish Parliament and gave Ireland only a small representation at Westminister. Under the Westminister Parliament the Cromwellian Settlement was carried out, and Catholics were proscribed. No mercy was shown to priests and the Mass was made a penal offence, and could only be celebrated in secret, as the above picture shows. Catholics plundered by the Cromwellians were denied even the justice of a trial In the reign of Elizabeth the Irish Catholic was treated just as intolerantly and with similar injustice and violence. The history of the Penal Days is the blackest in the story of Ireland. Burke, the great English statesman, describes the Penal Code as "well-fitted for the oppression, impoverishment and degradation of a feeble people and the debasement in them of human nature itself as ever proceeded from the perverted ingenuity of man.-

The Problem of Disarmament What Armistice Day Should Mean

Where Do We Stand? A wl now. fourteen years later, what is the state of the world? It is a What is happening bankrupt state. A general fear in the minds of men? that before long another war worse than the last may involve us all again. No lesson was learned by the world's leaders from that calamity. The peace made by the victors seemed deliberately designed to perpetuate injustice. The new nations, created in the name of liberty, began instantly to tyrannise So far over their own minorities. from rising to a new height of civilised ideals, most nations have harked back to a primitive form of tribal law, shutting themselves up behind narrow frontiers, barring out the stranger and the trader.

That is all nonsense. It is due to un, intelligence. It is due to human sta. pidity, fears, greeds, and ignorance. The younger crowd, who did not know the War except as a vague remembrance of childhood, are getting excited in some countries by the same old catchwords of vactor.,, and glory In our country the and heroism. bright young things are careless of dis tant thunderclouds while they la about in beach pyjamas r sit in chi. emas gazing at screen-male love.

though confusedly, its destiny with the prophecies of Holy Writ. This restoration of the House of Israel was shown to Ezechiel from afar in the famous vision of the dead bones. Its first scene shows their re-assembling: then, by the breath of the Spirit, their resurrection. Is this first phase unfolding itself under our very eyes? Is it not wholly improbable? No sign, no slightest indication can, as yet, encourage and support this hope. But the declaration of Ilojv Scripture is so definite that none can venture to ignore it. The last chapter of the Bible still remains unwritten, and it may safely be predicted that. after the convulsions of the Great War, a future is reserved for the country of Christ which holds still greater and more epoch-making changes.

Wiluna The new School-Church and Convent were blessed and officially opened by Hi Lordship Bishop O'Collins on Surday, March 12. He was assisted by Father Prendergast, D.Pho priest in charge, and Fathers Robinson, C.SS.R.. and Hogan, C.SS.R. It was the first time in the history of Wiluna that four Masses. including a Missa Cantata sung by Father Hogan, were celebrated. The choir deserve great praise for its performance. After the blessing of the School-Church and Convent, Father Prendergast briefly welcorned the Bishop and gave an account of the expenditure on the two buildings, which amounted to 22.180. Speeches were made by Messrs. Phillipson (Chairman of the Road Board) and Donnellan. Father Robinson, C.SS.R., in making an appeal for funds, spoke of the benefits derived from a good religious education. He gave a short sketch of the life of Nano Nagle, who founded the Presentation Sisters in 1775. His Lordship, in replying, thanked the people for their welcome to himself, and on their behalf welcomed the Presentation Sisters to their new field of labour. He told his audience of their good fortune in obtaining the services of the Nuns, pointing out the enormous power for good wielded by them, especially in out-lying mining communities such as Wiluna. He said that considering the excessive cost of materials, owing to freights, etc, one would marvel that two such tine large and comfortable buildings could be erected for the price stated; but of course they had in their pastor one who knew how to get the best at the minimum. He. congratulated pastor and people on their great achievement. The Bishop then went on to say that many people were under the impression that Catholic schools were assisted by the Government. Such was not the case. Since 1895 our schools have not received any governmental aid for the education of Catholic children, even thongh all Catholics, like every other citizen in the State, are called upon to pay taxes out of which all the children of the State should be educated. All the children of the State are compelled by a law of the State to go to school: Catholics cannot, in consequence. accept for their children the system of education. devoid as it is, in reality, from religion, which the State offers; hence we are compelled to keep our own Catholic schools and so pay t wice for the education. Mr. Marrat thanked His Lordship. and then proceeded to read the list of donations. After the Missa Cantata. Bishop Orollins administered the Sacrament of Confirmation to twenty candidates. and addressed the congregation, first in English and then in Italian. On Sunday at 7.30 p.m.. the Redemptorist Fathers opened a two weeks' Mission. The church was crowded. The school roll is steadily increasing. There are at present nearly sixty Catholic children in attendance. On St. Patrick's Day thirteen children received their First Holy Communion, The Children's Mass was sung by the children's choir.

THE RECORD.

"People Want More Private Propert Civilisation Will Not Survive Without It Mr. G. K. Chesterton urged that the remedy for our present-day troubles was more property, when he addressed a gathering in High Wycombe last month, at the formation of a branch of the Distributist League there. "Private property is a real, human "People want it; thing," he said. they have a dignity and pride in it. What is the matter with the poor is that they have not got enough property. The whole question is whether it is too late to restore it. I do not think it is. "Our civilisation has its faults—I am going to curse it violently in a few minutes—but it is a real thing," Mr. Chesterton continued. "It exists, and because of it I have just sat on, and with the greatest difficulty got out of a very comfortable chair. "The whole of this constructed thing has just been struck a damaging and dreadful blow. It is staggering, it is tottering, as a lot of great civilisations have tottered in the past. On the whole, when other civilisations tottered, they fell. It is a very serious thing indeed. . . . "Among the people who consider the question seriously there are two opinions. There are thoe who think we shall recover from the disaster which has fallen on commerce ,trade and employment. They think that the capitalist system will recover and that things will come back to better ern-

plus-mem and trade more or less as beThey are optimists almost to fore. the point of idiocy.. ' e utmost they can promise is that by some kind of hanky-panky employment might be increased, trade start again in this centre or that, and you will go through the whole cycle again. "It is not your children but only your grandchildren who will be ruined ,or 'Possibly your great-grandchildren. "Colossal financial crashes will still occur from time to time, ruining whole populations, making nations bankrupt, closing hundreds of banks, turning millions of men out of employment until the game can again be taken up, and again a false prosperity erected and destroyed. "That is the case for capitalism. There is no man so mad, even among financial exjerimentalists: none so wk.ked, even among politicians; none so c ynical or base, even, in my own profession of journalism who dare say that we can recover again the insular and insolent prosperity we enjoyed when we rode upon the top of the wave in the Early Victorian Age, because we were the only great commercial nation in the world. Nobody pretends seriously that that prosperity can be recovered. "The vital point is that unless somebody acts very promptly upon the true

GOLDFIELDS NOTES The ceremonies usual to Holy Week were carried out in St. Mary's, Kalgoorlie. and All Hallows, Boulder. The Stations of the Cross were made by large congregations in both churches on Wednesday night. On Holy Thursday large numbers attended Mass in both churches, and after Miss the procession of the Blessed Sacrament from the High Altar, through the church to the Altar of Repose took place. The Children of Mary, flower strewers, and acolytes took part in the procession. and the rendition of hymns was very devotional. The Altars of Repose were very beautifully adorned with drapery and lights," and large numbers of the faithful attended during the day to pay homage to God in the Sacrament of His Love.

The rest ot the evening was spent in usual dancing, in which a large number of visitors took part, and a pleasant and enjoyable time was brought to a close by the singing of "God Save Ireland.'

PERTH, SATURDAY, APRIL 29, 1933.

The Month of Mary The Month of May, the symbol oi all that is fairest in Nature, is dedicated to Our Lady, who represents all that is fairest in the order of grace. It is a common taunt to us Catholics that we lay Yet in paying her too much str ess on devotion to Our Lady. Himself, who God of honour. we are but following the example noble dignity the for men, of children the all above preserved her, And Mary herself in all humility could of Divine Motherhood. testify to this, when in the Magnificat she admitted that I-re that was mighty had done great things for her. Hence it is in the spirit of the Church that, with each recurring month of May, we redouble our efforts in paying her honour. •

It must not, however, be thought. that Mary did nothing to merit the dignity which, God had in store for her. Her life was one outstanding act of love and trust in the God of Israel. Like most pious Jewish maidens, she realised the incomparable dignity which lay in store for the woman who was to be the mother of the Messiah. Yet, in her humility, she had chosen to sacrifice this lawful ambition by her vow of virginity, in order to prepare herself, not indeed to become the Mother of the Captain, but to But God, become the servant and handmaid of His Mother. humilthe for regard had them, exalts :Ind humble, who loves the ity of His handmaid, by conferring upon her the highest honour ever conferred on mortal maiden. In like manner did Mary worthily continue to merit the Divine From the Divine favour during the hidden life of Nazareth. Infant's tender years, and indeed until the full attainment of His manhood, Mary's faith was being constantly put to the test, and stood the test as only Mary's could. It meant for Our Lady that her life on earth was to be a contindous life of suspense and suffering. For it is probable that during His hidden life, He gave no sign of iHs Divinity, allowing His Mother to endure poverty, only exile, and suspense, in order to increase her cup of sorrow, was it Thus Heaven. of Queen the as eventually to crown her to be that Mary effaced herself completely for her Son.

That is what the Sacred faith— of life Mary's up sums ture states, when, in a few words, it "And Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart."

And during the three years of public life, when Jesus left His not Mother, and forgot, as it were, Hic dearest friends. Mary did herself termed ago long not she For had refuse the sacrifice. the Handmaid of the Divine Will. She was willing to sacrifice her claims to Motherhood, in order that she might become the Mother of us all. It was enough for her to see her Son, divinely- upheld, and His faithful followers increase as the days went by •

Mass Prayer: "0 God, Who in the humility of Thy Son, didst raise up the fallen world, grant to Thy faithful people abiding gladness; that whereas Thou bast saved them from the perils of eternal death, Thou mayest bring them to the possession of everlasting happiness." This Sunday was formerly known as "Good Shepherd Sunday," because of its Epistle. The thought of Christ as the Paschal Lamb, naturally inspired the thought of Christ as the Good Shepherd. During the time of St. Gregory the Great, the station was held at St. Peters, and the Holy Doctor delivered his famous homily on the parable of Our Lord. the Good Shepherd. "Prince of Pastors and Bishop of our souls," as St. Peter calls Him, sought of this same Apostle a testimony of his love, before confiding to him the Later on St. care of His Church. Peter was to give his life for the flock entrusted to his care. In the Epistle we are reminded that Christ sought and found us. that He knows us. and we "For you were as sheep gone Him. astray, but you are now converted to the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls."

We deeply regret to record the tragic death of Mr. Dave Cantwell, the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. D. Cantwell. of Queen's Park. The sad event took place on Easter Sunday morning, as the result of a motor accident when returning to his home The deceased was an excellent Catholic young man, in his 24th. year, and his untimely death came as a terrible shock to his family and friends in the district. Four years ago Mr. and Mrs. Cantwell suffered ansther tragic bereavement, in the loss of another son, who was run down by a motor car and killed, on the Feast of the Epiphany, whilst engaged in serving his dairy customers. The family are very worthy Catholic people, and Mrs. Cantwell's work for Catholic charities knows no limit. Requiem Mass was celebrated by Rev. Father Pace at Queen's Park Church on the Tuesday following. The church was crowded, many of the metropolitan clergy and friends of the family being present. The large congregaticn was an expression of the great sympathy of the people of the district with Mr. and Mrs. Cantwell and family in their tragic bereavement. The funeral at Kat, rakatta was a large one, and a number of the clergy was present. Father Pace. of Queen's Park. read the service at the grave. and spoke words of ss-mpaths- to the bereaved parents and relatives to whom "The Record" also expresses its deep and eincere reerets.

The vast Church had been specially draped and illuminated for the occasion. By arrangement with •Signor Mussolini, a Solemn Requiem Mass for the late Duke of the Abruzzi, was celebrated in this same Church three days later. On the 20th. anniversary of his death, the remains of the late Cardinal Pietro Respighi, who for 12 years was Vicar General of Rome, were removed from the tomb in the Campo Santo and taken to the Church of the "Holy Four Crowned." which had been his titular church. On the arrival of the remains, Bishop Migliorelli, Canon of St. John's, pontificated at Requiem Mass. Cardinal Respighi was Archpriest of St. John's Basilica. The present Archpriest. Cardinal MarchettiSelvaggiani, and the whole Chapter of St. John's were present at the Mass. At its conclusion the remains were laid to rest in the left nave in a specially prepaied tomb.

of International Law of New York. Most of the Governments, since the World War, have signed a certain number of pacts, intended to prevent war by recourse to pacific procedures, Father de La Briere pointed out. That is a very important phase of the work of moral disarmament, he said, asserting, hcwever, that there remains the problems of imposing the measures inspired by this spirit upon groups, individuals and the pre§s. It was this subject that Father de La Briere treated especially in his address. NO RECOGNITION OF RUSSIA. The Holy Name Society in the United States has launched a campaign in opposition to the recognition of Soviet Russia. A number of mass meetings have been held in many parishes. Members of the society's speaker's bureau are addressing the gatherings, and petitions protesting against the recognition of the Soviet Government are being circulated for signatures. The opposition to Soviet recognition is on the grounds that the Soviet Government is opposed not only to religion, but also to the American principles of Government.

a necessary qualification for the valid unions of Catholics. Rise of the heresies of the 16th, and following centuries caused a crisis in morals as well as in doctrine. Denial of the holiness of the marriage state inevitably ended in affirmation of the propriety of abuses which the Church could consider only as serious moral faults. Consequently to avoid these as far as possible. the presence of the priest as the official w itness of the sacrament was commanded. This law, applicable in some places immediately after the Council of Trent, was made universal in the year 1908. Since that time, Catholics who married clandestinely, that is without the priest as the official witness, were not considered married at all. Finally, for marriages in which only one of the parties is Catholic, the other of another religion, the Church insists that the faith of the Catholic partner and of the children to come be most assiduously safeguarded. To ascertain that all the provisions of the natural and ecclesiastical law be observes these marriages also are subject to t he jurisdiction of the priest.

ANGLICANS AND THE HOLY YEAR. The Anglican "Church Times" is ( says an overseas contemporary), pressing the Archbishop of Canterbury to associate tEe Church of England with Hobs Year. "It is within his poweis" says the paper. "to show the world that it is possible sometimes for Christendom to be united in spirit." The -Church Times" expresses regret that the question of Holy Year was not considered by either of the Convocations at their recent meetings. "Iris of vastly greater importance than the issue of a form of thanksgiving service for a diamond wedding day, or even the opening of cinemas on Sunday," says the Anglican organ. It has been noted that in his appeal to the world to participate in the Holy Year, the Holy Father sent his message to "all who are redeemed by the Blood of Christ.' The "Church Times" understands that this is an appeal to Anglicans and other Christians, and the "Osservatore Romano" quoted with sympathy the Anglican paper's remarks. DISTINCTION FOR INVALID PRIEST'S LITERARY WORK. The literary work of the Rev. John S. Zybura, a priest of the Diocese of Cleveland U.S.A., most of which was accomplished in a hospital bed, has won high distinction from Poland. The Polish Government has just conferred upon Father Zvbura the "National Ward of the Medal of Merit." a decoration given to Polish citizens and those of Polish descent for outstanding achievement in the fields of philosophy. science, literature and art. Father ZYbura. who has written several books dealing with philosophy and religion. has been a patient at St. Francis Hospital for some Years, and worked while propped up in bed. He now has been forced to suspend all his work. The directors of the University of Cracow Library have asked Father Zybura*to send the library copies of his works.

Catholic Marriage , - (By Rev. Dr. William 0. Brady.) "Why does the Church insist that marriages of Catholics be performed in the presence of a priest? Is it not true that formerly this was not obligatory?" Three reasons which underlie this discipline of the Church are to be found in the teaching that marriage is a public act, that marriages of Catholics are sacramental unions, and that above all the true faith must be protected. The fist of these reasons. namely, t hat marriage is a public act, is recognised by the civil powers as well as by the ecclesiastical authorities. For the foundation of a new home- is of major importance not merely to the parties to the union but in a greater sense to the common welfare. The stability and sanctity of the home are indices of the permanency and social health of t he nation. No one can he forgetful of the disastrous consequences now being experienced by society as a result of the practical denial of this prin. viols. It is for this reason that mar:iage in civilised states iF always subject to considerable regulation to guarantee the rights of individuals and to protect both the family and the State. It was, however, the denial of the arramental nature of marriage that finally led the Church to confirm the custom of marriage before the priest as

"The horse being yours, y-ou are oi course familiar with his good qualities as also with his defects?" "Certainly," replied. the knitit, though a little uneasily; for he evt, dently did not like these questions. "The horse," continued the King, “is blind in one eve. Which eye is W" "The left eye," said the knight, trusting to luck. "What do you says peasant?'' quired Ramira, turning to the other claimant, who had been keeping quite silent, though his eyes expressed ex, siderable amazement at the question; ask ,.le‘dhy b.y t.,o hu e r KNiniag , )esty, except for a slight spavin on his off hind leg, iny horse is perfectly sound, and his syti are, both of them, as good as mine."

As for this rascal,' he continued, turning to the knight, 'throw him into a dungeon until. in the presence of the whole people, we de. grade him from his knighthciod as a robber and a felon." Now. if Ramira had been like a good many great people, wanting to take all possible credit to himself, this would be the end of the. story. But he wasn't that kind of a man at s11: so he sent for young Giles Lopez and had a long talk with him. Finding the boy to be shrewd and intelligent, he esnt him to Montpellier to study law.

For nearly an hour a printer's traveller had been talking in his most persuasive and eloquent manner to an old local printer and stationer. The old fellow seemed pleased and convinced, and the traveller felt sure a big order would follow. At last the local man said: "I'd like* my lad to hear what you have to say. Will you come in the afternoon and go over your talk again?" "Certainly," replied the traveller; and at the hour appointed he presented himself for the interview with father and son. Once again he went over the points of the article he had for sale, and when he had finished the old chap, turning to his son, said, enthusiastically: "Do you hear that, my lad? Well, that's the way I want You to sell our goods when I send you on the road." *. Onse upon a time there was a truck driver who said he liked his job because during the course of his day's work he ran into so many interesting people.

Yesterday one actually settled on my head." Fed-up Listener: "It must have been a woodpecker." A little girl, who wanted numerous presents for Chrikmas. thought she might mention some of the articles in her prayers. So she said, following her petition: "And I want a doll's pram, ,a little bicycle, and a doll's house.' Her elder sister, who was in the room with her, upbraided her for talk"Don't shout." she ing too loudly. said, "the Lord isn't deaf." 'No.' said the little girl, "but daddy is." Wife: "I have bought a couple of tickets for a whist drive. I thought you would like a change." Husband: "Yes, but we can't either of us plax whist ' Wife: "Never mind, dear, The drive will do us good." - * He: "How do You like this place? Shall I buy it as a present for you?" She: "Oh, it's perfectly lovely! The view from this balcony is so fine that it leaves me speechless." He: "Then I'll buy it." Railway Clerk: "Another farmer is sueing us on account of his cows." Manager: "What! Killed by our trains?" Railway Clerk: "No. he complains of the passengers leaning out of the windows and milking them as the trains go by!" "So you loved and lost, eh, old chap?"

T wo ladies, one of whom was very deaf, were walking by the railway suddenly an express train rushed by, and as it passed the engine gave a shriek that seemed to rend the sky. The ladies' ears were nearly split, but the deaf one turned to her suffering friend and said, with a happy smile: 'That's the first robin I've heard this spring." Magistrate: "You admit tearing a handful of hair from your husband's head?" Defendant: "I wanted to put it in a locket." Stranger (at village station): "Is this the 3.15?"
