The following interesting report of the Consecration of the new Aposttolic Delegate, Most Rev. Philip Bernardini, will, we are sure, be read with interest by our many readers. It has been contributed by Father M Giles, who was present at the ceremony in the chapel of the new Propaganda College, as Chaplain to the Cardinal Prefect:— Sunday, May 21st. was indeed a redletter day, not only for the small Australian and New Zealand colony resident in Rome, but also for the whole Catholic populations of the lands beneath the Southern Cross. That was the day chosen for the episcopal consecration of the recently appointed Apostolic Delegate, the Most Rev. Philip Bernardini, Titular Archbishop of Antioch in Pisidia.

The scene of this most impressive and solemn function was the spacious chapel of the new Propaganda College A vast congregation of relative, friends, and well-wishers of the new Delegate filled the precincts of the chapel to overflowing.

Several distinguished visitors graced the big representative assemblage by their august presence, among whom were: Their Eminences Cardinals Peter and Henry Gasparri (uncle and cousin, respectively. to His 'Excellency) ; Sin. cero, Secretary of the Congregation for the Oriental Church) ; Their Excellencies Monsignori Borgongini-Duca (Apostolic Nuncio to the Court of Italy).

Historic Scene at St. John Lateran el•
The Holy Father's Jubilee visit, on the 25th. of May, to the Basilica of St. John Lateran, renewed the characteristic Roman funcions which thad been suspended since 1870. The Papal cortege of eight automobiles passed through the busiest streets of the City of Rome. Groups gathered here and there and saluted reverently as the Pontiff passed. The Holy Father drove slowly down the great new road opened by Signor Mussolini last year on to the Colosseum, where he could see the great changes made to enlarge and beautify the space about those historic When the Pope arrived monuments. at the Papal Palace of St. John's, the Noble Guard, the Swiss Guard, and the Palatine Guard were all on duty, as at the Vatican. Cardinal Marchetti Salvaggiani greeted the Pope. With His Eminence were the Directors of the Missionary and other Museums in St. John's. After visiting the Missionary Exhibition. the Holy Father retired to 1 the State apartments. When the time came for the ceremony in St. John's, the Pope left his
apartments, ccompanied by his Court, and proceeded to the hall where the Cardinals awaited him. Here he vested. and the procession was formed. On his entrance into the Basilica, borne on the "sedia gestatoria" beneath a rich canopy, the silver trumpets rang out, and the cheers of the Romans who greeted their Bishop, swellp up. it almost seemed louder, than in St. Peter's.

Later as the Pontiff came near the altar, the ''Tu es Petrus" was sung. The procession went first to the Blessed Sacrament Chapel, where, after the adoration. the Pope took in his hands the reliquary containing part of the Holy Cross. Then, mounting the "sedia gestatoria" again, he bore the relic to the High Altar. The vast sanctuary of St. .John's was arranged with all the magnificence of a Papal Chapel. Twenty Cardinals, several Patriarchs, Archbishops and Bishops took their places at each side of the sanctuary.

THE RECORD.
THE LITTLE FLOWER SHRINE APPEAL LAUNCHED A VICTIM OF LOVE It was in a home that reflected the sunshine of. Nazareth that Marie Francis Teresa Martin was born in Alencon, France. on January 2. 1873. wrote Father Richard J. Cushing, in a summary of the Saint's life. She was one of nine children. Four of them died in infancy before their fragrance could s weeten the earth. The other five entered convent walls to become the mystical brides of Christ. Teresa, the youngest, popularly known as "The Little Flower," was queen of them all. In that extraordinary book, "The Story of a Soul." written by herself at the command of her religious superiors, she paints a complete and a most intimate portrait of her life. Turning the pages of this unique Autobiography we will tell the tale of her brief sojourn on this earth, following step by step in the simple, mystic language of love the wooing and winning to God of this radiant soul. In the earliest days of her childhood she presents herself as she really was, an ordinary child with an ordinary child's faults and failings—a petted family favourite, with a strong little will of her own ,a love of being noticed and praised, and a temper that could make her stamp and scream when her wishes were denied. And yet she was so sweet, so sensitive, and so very pretty, with her head of blonde . curls, that her father called "The Little Queen," a name that was to stay with her for sver. Her maturity was such at the age c,f three that she wrote: "Beginning with my third year. I refused nothing to Almighty God." One year later her mother died: mere babe though she was, she understood. for her whole life changed immediately. From gay she became 'very shy: from frolicsome she became very quiet. Went to Lisieux. After the death of her mother. her father removed from Alencon and took his five daughters to Lisieux. Teresa selected her sister Pauline to take the place of mother, and like a rare and lovely flower daily unfolding its petals hnd disclosing some new loveliness, she grew in beauty, intelligence, and grace. Five sears passed, and her sister and adopted mother. Pauline, entered the Carmelite Order. "I shall always remember," she writes "how tenderly my little mother consoled me. She ex-
plained to me the convent life, and one evening, when all alone, I pondered over the picture she had painted and I knew that the Carmelite Convent was the desert where God also wished to hide me. I felt it so forcibly that no doubt remained in my mind." Then came the day of her First Holy Communion. No bride ever longed for her wedding day as this girl of eleven longed for the coming of the Eternal Bridegroom. Years later she wrote of it in exclamations of affectionate wonder. "Truly it was a kiss of love. I felt myself loved by God and I said in return: Ilove Thee, I give myself to Thee forever." She asked nothing, she gave all. She was lost, swallowed up in the depths of that boundless, unfathomable ocean that is God. Oh, how abundant must have been the graces bestowed at that moment by Him, Who feedeth amongst the lilies, upon this child-soul in which bloomed in unsullied splendour the flower of spotless purity and innocence. But strangely enough, or perhaps naturally enough, it was followed by love's inevitable companion, suffering. For two years she was assailed by scruples. Sensible devotion left her and even her faith seemed to languish. Perturbed hut never discouraged, she fought on with a confidence that was soon rewarded. A sudden wave of grace born of Christiantide flooded her soul. Back came the smile to her lips and the laughter to her heart. Asked Hope be Realised, Then close to the Crib on that Christmas of UM, this girl of thirteen, calmly, peacefully asked that her long meditated hope might be realised—the dedication of herself to the Christ Child in the Carmelite Convent at Lisieux. Having tasted love, having tasted sacrifice, she chose them both to be the oortion of her life, and she presented them as a Christmas gift at the Crib. Love's preparation was now complete. Its achievement was about to begin. Offering herself at the age of fourteen as a candidate for the Carmelite Order, her offer was gently refused. Such an arduous life was too severe for a child of her tender s-ears. Away then she went and placed her petition at the feet of her Bishop. Again, the answer was "No." Unshaken by this
GOLDFIELDS NOTES
The news of the appointment ,of Very Rev, Father Prendiville as Coadjutor -Archbishop of Perth, was received with great pleasure in Kalgoorlie and Boulder. Father Prendiville has visited us on several occasions. and has always left behind an impression of a fine Churchman, possessed of sympathy and of an understanding of the human heart. His comparative youth will enable him to prosecute vigorously and with real Irish missionary zeal the many fine Works set in operation m this Archdiocese by his distinguished predecessors. We are pleased. too, to think that our beloved Chine will be able to share Archbishop his onerous duties with one whom already singled out for special he had work when he appointed him Administrator of the Cathedral Parish. It is hardly necessary for us as Catholics to assure Rev. Father Prendiville of our loyalty and devotion—it is our privilege to extend to whom ever Rome in its wisdom maY•appoint to any position. our cooperation and our prayers. We hope Rev.

It is given to few men to leave hehind them such memories of saintliness, kindly tolerance, and erudition as are left by Rev. Father Gorey. The words of Caesar can be applied to his victories in Catholic hearts of the Goldfields: "Veni. Vidi. vici." A t a well attended meeting of the Parents and Citizens' Association of the Christian Brothers' College, it was unanimously decided to hold the annual Children's Ball on Thursday. July 13. Preparations are well in hand for this gala night for the children. and with Mr. P. J. Russell again a t the helm, we can feel confident about the final result. • If the liberal support extended by the C.B.C. boys to kindred organisations be otwtended to them in return.. then the only matter that need worry the committee is the procuring of copious supplies of "eats and drinks." Note the date and the venues—Thursday next, July 13. at the Kalgoorlie Town Hall. The last match of the first round in the Junior Competition was played on the Kalgoorlie Oval last week, when the junior teams from the Christian Brothers' College and High School met. ,After an interesting struggle, C.B.C. ran out victors by the comfortable margin of nineteen points The C.B.C. boys were superior in every

second refusal, she accompanied her father on a pilgrimage to Rome. The Eternal City, hallowed by the blood of martyrs, captivated her, but her ardent desire to become a Carmelite over whelmed her soul, and in an audience with the Holy Father she threw her delicate form before his august presence and cried: "Holy Father, in honour of your jubilee permit me to enter Carmel when I am fifteen." Pope Leo's piercing eyes scanned her pale, breathless countenance, and he answered. "You will enter if it is God's holy will." No earthly power remained for her appeal. her Divine Lover alone could help her. By day, then, and by night, the white flames of her prayers ascended to Heaven. She must enter, she must. And at last, Pope Leo's words predicted true. God willed it. On April 9, 1388. this fairest flower of earth was planted in the rich soil of a Carmelite convent, there to bloom for a while ,to perfume the atmosphere with the exquisite fragrance of sanctity, before it was transplanted for ever in the Heavenly Garden of God.

Unwilling to let him know his end was approaching, those about him would not allow the priest to visit him, so his soul was on the point of being lost. When all efforts to get him a priest had failed, my family and I began a novena to Soeur Therese. A t the beginning of the novena, my wife succeeded in giving the sick man a picture of the little Sister, which he gratefully accepted. He looked at it with pleasure, and read the prayer several times a day. The night before the novena ended, Soeur Therese appeared to him.

Fremantle C.B.C. Debating Society A literary meeting was held by the society on Friday. June 30. The chair was occupied by Mr. Rider. Mr. A. J. Hill was called upon to read the first journal, which was an article by C. Bourke on Communism. Mr. Bourke's narrative centred round the life of The Lenin, the Communist pioneer. article was very interesting, and contained much sound reasoning with regard to the evils of Communism. Mr. T. Fuller's account of the evolution of the modern aeroplane was most Mr. interesting and enlightening. Fuller emphasised the part France played in the early stages of aviation. "Tile Beginning of the Newspaper," by J. Cunneen, was delivered by Mr. P. The article was most inforCarrol. It was mative and well written. highly appreciated by all on account of its novelty and literary value.
St. Columba's, South Perth Our Coon Minstrels. Last Sunday evening an enthusiastic meeting of men was held in the School Room after devotions. Mr. Sydney Smith outlined what he hoped to do within the next few weeks. It was decided to meet in the School Room on Monday evenings at 8 pm, and the first practice will be held on Monday next, July 10. On a call for volunteers, every one present joined the band of merry men. All the old plantation songs will be resurrected, the
men; now where are you young men? Some of our young men would make excellent coons—we will supply the burnt cork, so come along next Monday. To those outside the parish who want to join, get in touch with Mr. Sydney Smith, c/o The Economic Stores, Perth. The second part of our proposed entertainment .w11 be an abridged presentation of that laughable farce, so old, but so mirth provoking, "The PriMore about that vate Secretary." anon.
"Napoleon Bonaparte," by Mr. P. Carrol, was an insight into the early life of Napoleon. An interesting feature of the autobiography was Napoleon's vigorous temper, when a boy, and also his first love affair at the age of five. Mr. I. Hill's contribution, "The Infancy of Modern Industry." was commendable as an original essay, and was a credit to his enthusiasm. The journal was read by Mr. C. Mews. Mr. Matison (secretary) submitted the only poem. It was entitled "The Next Test Match." Mr. Nlatison showed much skill in the composition, which was intellis zntly recited by Mr. D. Doherty. If the prophecy contained in the poem be fulfilled, .John Bull will abandon "body-line" for ever. Mr. C. Tomlinson contributed a series of character sketches of the players in Shakespeare's play, "Julius Caesar." Much industry on the part of Mr. Tomlinson was exhibited in his arduous composition, and his work was much appreciated by those present with literary inclinations. The Chairman called for criticisms on the articles read. These were numerous and spirited, and were ended only by the chairman declaring the meeting closed. SCOUTS' WORLD JAMBOREE. As official travel agents for the British section of the Boy Scouts' Fourth World Jamboree. which is to be held in the little town of Godollo, near Budapes, from August 2 to 16, Cooks in Great Britain are arranging for the transportation of between two and three thousand boys by special trains and steamers. In addition many young travellers will probably proceed by ordinary services. During their stay in Hungary, the boys will be given the opportunity of seeing the principal places of interest in Budapest, as well as other towns.

ST. COLUMBA'S JUVENILE TENNIS CLUB, The Trophies presented at the recent Tournament are seen on the table older the song the better. If you have any old song albums, bring them along next Monday. The object in view is to give concerts, and if the home ones are yell patronised then the coons will go farther afield. Mr. Sydney Smith emphasised the importance of coming to the practices every Monday. otherwise the whole idea would be dropped. To join the chorus you need not have a good voice, the old melodies like "My Old Kentucky Home." are so familiar that they will be very quickly learned. In all there will be about a dozen choruses, then some patter, dances, and effects bringing the programme to about an hour and a quarter. Anyone may join our-coons; the only condition is that you must attend the practices on Monday evenings. The South Perth tram drops you at the school, if you alight at Forrest-street. We in St. Columba's are bound to do all we can to recruit members for the chorus. as a mark of appreciation to Mr. Sydney Smith for taking this extra burden upon himself, and so gladly offering to do it. All it needs is a little enthusiasm, and our coloured Christy Minstrels may make our wee parish famous. On Sunday f.•ivening we had a splendid attendance of older

THE RECORD.
The Archdiocese
The folloseing letter was received by His Grace, in acknowledgment of receipt of the Peter's Pence Collection:— "Secretariate of State of His Holiness. "From the Vatican, "31st. May 1933. "To the Most Excellent and Reverend Lord. "Patrick Joseph Clune, "Archbishop of Perth. "Most Excellent and Most Reverend Sir,— "It has pleased the August Pontiff to acknowledge paternally the splendid gesture. full of reverence and love. whereby your Excellency forwarded the recent Peter's Pence Collection. This is yet another proof—and that most expressive—of the manner in which you and your clergy endeavour to aid the Apostolic See in its necessities, which, owing to these most difficult times, have much increased. "Therefore, the Most Holy Father, w hile thanking you and all the subscribers, at the same time beseeches that all heavenly gifts may be bestowed upon you. With these good wishes in mind, He imparts to You and to the flock committed to your care, the Apostolic Benediction "I also am much pleased to announce these tidings to your Excellency, and in proof of my high esteem, I sign myself, "Your Excellency's most devoted.

News and Notes It does not often fall to the lot of a metropolitan to bless, as a child, his coadjutor, says the "Catholic Leader," of Brisbane. This is still another distinction which Archbishop Redwood has enjoyed in his long life. On one occasion he was travelling through the Taranaki portion of the archdiocese. An Irish woman, aware, of course, that Dr. Redwood was riding in it, stopped the coach. To him she 'brought her small boy to bless. That child grew to be Archbishop O'Shea, for many Years past the Arcito shop's owr coadjutor in the See of Wellington, Dr. O'Shea is himself an old man now. The Right Rev. Dr. ,Andrew Killian, according to a cable message received from Rome by the Archbishop of Adelaide (Dr. Spence) , has been appointed Co-ad jutor Archbishop of Adelaide. Dr. Killian came to Australia from Ireland in 1898. and after ministry at Bourke and Broken Hill, was apointed Vicar-General of the Forbes-Wilcannia diocese. He was consecrated Bishop of Port Augusta in 1924. The more noteworthy memorials in Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin, have received an addition by the lofty. artistic Celtic cross erected to the memory of Thomas Addis Emmet. the distinguished American surgeon, who could claim cmllateral descent from Robert Emmet, the popular hero. Dr. Emmet, who died in 1919, expressed a wish that his body should be taken to Ireland
for burial, and that wish was respected. The memorial, which stands 26 feet in height, is lavishly carved with figures and scroll work, much of the ornamentation being based on designs in the Book of Kells. The figures include representations of the two patrons of the medical art, SS. Cosmas and Damian. The ensemble of the work is impressive, recalling the magnificent crosses in the country in ancient times. That hardy annual, the preparation of our taxation returns, has again made its unwelcome appearance. In our advertising columns, the department of Taxation is making its yearly demand for particulars of our income for the year ended 30th. June last. The very thought of preparing those inquisitorial documents is sufficient to give the average person a headache. However, the worry and trouble can all be dispelled by consulting Mr. W. Kinane, who practises at Royal Insurance Chambers (fourth floor), St. George's Terrace, opposite Foy and Gibson, and next to Newspaper House His telephone number is B7229. The Subiaco Catholic Ball will be held on Monday, July 10, in the King's Hall, Subiaco. Doreen D'Arcy's enchestra will provide the music. An e xcellent sit-down supper and debutante set will be features of this year's occasion. There will also be late trams to the city. Bishop Cowgill, who celebrated his Golden Jubilee last month, preaching at his Visitation to St. Paulinus' Church, Dewsbury (Eng.), said that when he was in Rome a few months ago he was able to tell His Holiness that in the past five Years 35 new churches had been built and opened and five churches consecrated in the Leeds diocese. The Holy Father, said the Bishop, was delighted and begged of him to carry his blessing to all hi' people. "And I need not tell you ' said the Bishop. "that this country one of his consolations." Bishop Cow. gill is 73 years old. and still hard a t work. He was educated at Douai and Rome. Members ef the St. Vincent de Paul Society in 27 countries came to Paris for the celebration of the 100th. anniversary of the society's foundation by Frederic Ozanarn. About 7,000 deleeates met under the presidency of the Papal Legate, Cardinal Verdier. The Irish Free State was represented 'os Mr. de Valera. The principal delegate 1-om England was Mr. P. F. Corballis president of the Westminster Central Council. Five priests distributed Hobs Communion for an hour to the members at Mass on Saturday morning the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. Montmartre. Mr. F. F. Corballis and s'ir Joseph Glenn, president of the :isiperior Council of Dublin. together with several Generals and Admirals carried the Cardinal Legate upon a dais to his throne in the Cathedral of Notre Dame on Sunday afternoon The announcement was made in the daily press. that the Little Sisters of the Poor. at Glendalough, would benefit largely by the will of the late Mrs. Emma Anne Pearse but when all the specific legacies are paid, it is doubtful if there will be much, if anything, of the residuary bequest to dispose of to the Little Sisters. From statistics drawn up recently tot the Italian Parliament, it has been ascertained that Italy supplies 15 per cent, of all the missionary priests of the world. 14 per cent. of the lay brothers. and 25 per cent of the nuns employed on the work of the foreign missions. • It is stated that probably before the close of the Holy Year—on April 2. 1934--the Blessed Bernadette, Blessed Louise de Marillac (foundress of the Sisters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul) and Blessed Don Bosco will be canonised. Further Beatifications are probable ,including those of the Venerable Ferrini, lay Professor of the University of Pavia; a group of 2.146 martyrs who gave their lives for the faith in China in 1820. 1875. 1898, 1900. and 1904, together with martyrs of the Argentine who suffered for the faith in 1628. * The next International Eucharistic Congress. which will take place in P uenos Aires, will open on October 10 1934, nd close on October 14. A familiar flgurg in the every day hie of the city is the Little Sister of the Poor. going her round of charity solieit ing, help for the old age poor committed by the vicissitudes of life to her tender care. Few, if any, ever think when this black-robed Sister of the Poor—the vary poor, who hut for her self-denial and gentle glacrifice w ould be snowed under by Me cold
ELEV EN charity of the world—passes along our thoroughfares seeking the charity of the well disposed for her poor charges, how very difficult and depressing her daily errands are. Only the Divine Master, Whom she serves, can really know, but in heat and cold, rain or shine, she goes her way with the peace of God in her face and with serene eyes fulfilling the mission of her life, carrying the cup of cold water to the thirsty and finding food for her aged poor who have been cast from the highway of life into the shelter of her loving care. To-day in the Home of the Little Sisters of the Poor at Glendalough, there are 130 old people to be cared for. There charity is not ticketed off into sections. Catholic and non-Catholic are housed .on equal terms. All are God's poor in the eves of the Little Sister, to be ministered to in His Name. To this little black robed Sister, on her errand of mercy and love, reach out your kindly aid and consideration. She needs the help of the community for her aged poor— there are so many, she plaintively says and they must be fed. Miss E. M. Baker, who is well known in Catholic circles, has decided to go into business on her own account. She is opening a shop in Hay-street, to be known as "The Little Flower" Shop. The name of Mrs. Arthur Campbell, niece of Mr. Tom Fitzgibbon. was inadvertently omitted from the notice of his motheer death in Ireland. whi ..h appeared in our last issue.

The prizes are valuable and the subject one that should interest all our young neople who are students of music. We commend it to the attention of our schools. A parliamentary committee of the Maltese Parliament is investigating a sworn charge by a Nationalist member. Mr. Albert Mizzi that a police inspector whom he names had approached him during the last election offering to procure the murder of the Prime 3.1inister (Lord Strickland) for a sum of money. Mr. Mizzi has confirmed his charge on oath. Lord Strickland has expressed his surprise that the ministers had been so slow in takinp- action.

Governor Hutt welcomed the missionaries, cordially expressing his pleasure at the Catholics being able to receive the ministrations of their own religion. He granted them three allotnients of land for Church, School. awl Presbytery. and iii- mised a liberal sub' .sciiption to the budding fund. The foundation-stone of the Church. destined to be the Cathedral, was laid on the r27th.' of' December, under the invocation of St. John the Evangelist. whose feast was that day celebrated. ln few hours the sum of £160 was collected, which enabled the building to be begun.

Many souls who bore the burden of the day, and ried their swags in the outbacks of Australia, now attribute their spiritual resurrection .to the visits of Father Clune, who brdught them the consolation of their religion, gathering them for Mass and the Sacraments in places where Mass was seldom or never, celebrated before. The same signal success had been met with in his missionary work in Europe and New Zealand Business Ability. When. in 1911, he was consecrated Bishop. he was already well known in Western Australia. At the time of his appointment, he was Superior of the Redemptorists is the West, and the enthusiasm created by the announcement was universal and sincere. Since then His Grace has grown each Year in the affection and esteem of his priests and people. This was particularly emphasised whenever he made pastoral visitations to the various parishes of his vast Archdiocese. It was shown in a very practical way, by the response he received when. in his episcopate, he w as compelled to rolieit financial help— and received it in a short period to the extent of seventy thousand pounds. In later Years he had occasion to repeat the appeal for the building of the new Cathedral. and the response was equally remarkable.
OR. BRADY—FIRST BISHOP OF PERTH. • Finding that the aboriginal natives _ were very numerous round about Perth. as well as throughout the whole State, Father Brady journeyed to Eu rope to secure the services of some zes-,lous missionaries to evangelise the blacks, and also to get assistance for the Perth mission. He returned to tile . sphere of his labours raised to the dig• pity of Bishop, and accompanied by a Parts- of priests and nuns. Among the missicnaries were Dom Salvado and Dom Serra. two Spanish Benedictine Priests, who took care of the aboriginals. The first Monastery was at Su biaco, but later the mission was transferred to New Norcia. in 1846. At the time Dr Brady took charge 'If the diocese. the Catholics numbered only 306 Before long, however, more than received 300 European converts were into the Church. The resources of the diocese were completely s wamped by the ever-increasin g debts and accumulating interest, which caused great anxiety.

RIGHT REV. DR. GIBNEY—THIRD BISHOP. Father Gibney came to the West from Ireland, in 1863. and resided here R2 Years. The first 25 years of his sacred ministry were spent in laborious toils for the good of the Catholics in and around Perth. Insufficient means of communication made it very rlifcult to travel round the diocese for the purpose Of giving the scattered Catholic families the consolations of our holy religion, but this good priest never considered his own personal comfort,
of the thousands of Catholics who flocked to those parts. The Geraldten Diocese was also founded, and the Orders of the Redemptorist Fathers and Oblates, as well as several Orders of Nuns, were brought to this mission field. Dr. Gibney retired from office in 1910. and died on the 21st. Tune, 1925, in the 90th. year of his age. HIS GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP. The present Archbishop, the Most Rev. Dr. Clune, first came to Perth as one of a small band of Redemptorist Fathers. Like all the pioneers of Catholicity here, they had to endure the hardships inseparable from the early days of a religious movement. While living in a tiny, inconvenient abode on the spot where now stands the magnificent Monastery, they devoted themselves. to the extension and development of the Church in the West, spending themselves, and being spent, in the service of their fellow-men. Famous Missionary, Dr. Chine will alw ays be remembered all over the Continent as one of the most successful missionaries who ever
Archbishop and Metro^olitan, The Holy See acknowledged his successful powers of administration early in his Episcopal career, by raising him to the dignity of Archbishop and Metropolitan of the West. He is thus the first Archbishop of the See of Perth During the war years, when the Australian Catholic troops were calling out for Chaplains, His Grace heartily sponsored the project, and as Catholic Chaplain-General of the Australian Forces. visited at much risk and inconvenience all the subjects at the Front. His life has been full of activity—whether in the interests of the temporal or spiritual needs of the Archdiocese. The growth of the Church during his Epis copate has been very remarkable, and His Grace kept ahead of the needs of the people. by building churches. convents, schools and charitable institutions wherever required. His crowning work of this kind is, of course, the beautiful Gothic Cathedral, which will ever remain as a monument to his memory. Note' hoanding his vigorous and crowded life. His Grace is still hale and hearty, and bids fair to equal the record of His Grace of New Zealand, in a life of long and fruitful service. No greater pleasure could be afforded his subjects in the Archdiocese, or his many friends in the two Hemispheres. than the realisation of that ideal.

In saying so much it seems I was on solid ground, but I did not go fat enough! Other bodies, too, have been working, I now learn, for some time for the same laudable purpose. and I did not give them even a mention! Hence I have drawn a hornet's nest around my head, or rather, the head of the supposed correspondent.

Crippling the Church in Spain A fter long and stormy "guillotine,. debates, and finally by applying the the Spanish Parliament has passed in its entirety the bill "regulating" religious affairs in Spain. The latest clauses of the law forbid members of religious orders from taking part, directly or indirectly, in education; forbid them to engage in any "commerce, industry, or agricultural exploitation"; and ordain that all schools conducted by religious be closed on October 1, except the Primary ones, which will close on December 31. The new law, known as the "Lev de Congregaciones y Confesiones Religiosas," starts off by saying -. In accordance with the Constitution, liberty of conscience and the practice and abstention from religious activities are guaranteed in Spain." And then follows a series of viola'On the rights of the Catholic Church In Spain. Particularly noteworthy is Article 11. by which the "legal" spoliation of the Church is accomplished. Article 11 declares to be national public propettv the churches, buildings. appurtenances. episcopal residences, rectories, with or without gardens, bserninaries, monasteries, and other nildings intended for the service of CaLudic worship or ministers. he same condition holds for the furnvlShin, s, 6 ornament. , images, pictures, ;a.ses, ietvel ta0estries and other nbjans of this sort installed in churches ecclesiastical buildings intended a th"lics worship, its splendour, or

necessities directly related to it. It should be noted well that these measures are directed against Catholic worship and despoil the Catholic Church. Protestant churches and pro. perty held by foreign sects, even MoJews, hammedans. are not included. Mohammedans. Protestants, Spiritist$, and others may enjoy to the full their property. It is true that these things "may con. tinue to be used for the same religious purpose of the Catholic religion to which effect they will continue under the control of the Catholic Church for their conservation, administration and utilisation." but the Church "can not dispose of them and is restricted in the use ,of them for the purpose to which they are ascribed." Thus the Church is burdened with the conservation of many things which, aside from the fact that they yield no return, impose enormous expenditure for conservation and protection. Nevertheless, the Church can neither sell nor be recompensed for necessary expenditures. In addition to this injustice and violation of property rights, there is this: "The buildings adjoined to churches, the episcopal residences, the rectories with or without their gardens, seminaries and other buildings intended for the use of the ministers, shall be subject to the inherent taxes for the use of same." The Church may not dispose of property hut may only preserve it for its owner. which is the State; but the State, or rather the Ministry, "for motives justifiable by public necessity,' may dispose of it at its whim. Beside the State arrogates to itself the power to dispose of any object whatsoever belonging to th-2 artistic treasure of the Church.

Cottesloe To the strains of "modern" jazz, a very fair number of dancers took the floor at the Hostel Manly on last Thursday week, 29th. ult. It is no exaggeration to say they enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Novelties were introduced, but I am afraid that after one particular exhibition of "noise making," the dancers must have suffered from loss of wind, as the bridge players in an adjoining room breathed a sigh of relief when the next dance brought A forth good natural laughter only. delightful supper was served by our hostess, Mrs. McGuigan, a feature of which was the dainty savouries prepared by Miss Es !Outridge. of Rex Products fame.

A goodly number of our local bridge players and dancers were conspicuous by their absence, but this is excusabte owing to a number being engaged on stocktaking and preparation for the Strange to say, "annual balance," the filling in of the Census form did In not keep any away that night. any case, I trust that the results of the various stocktakings will put them in good spirits for the next "half year," as there is a big programme of work We are going to reduce the ahead. debt on the parish, and everybody's assnstance is urgently needed. Every seat was occupied in the Star oi the Sea Hall on Tuesday evening last, when the Children of Mary opened the programme of the concert they have for the past few weeks been busily engaged in organising. They chose . as a chorus, "Let music and song be our pastime to-night," and a very apt title it was, for from 8 p.m. till 10.30 pan., a most enjoyable programme of vocal and instrumental music was submitter and thoroughly enjoyed by the large and appreciative audience. Miss Shiela Slattery received well merited applause on her rendering of "The Cockney Gounod's "Serenade." Girl at the Cinema," imitated in typical Cockney style and dress by Miss May Moir, merited an encore, entitled Mr. "Mrs. 'Arris at the .Auction."

Miss Linda Barber drew an encore to her rendering. and the long programme _closed with the chorus, "Piccaninny's Land of Dreams," beautifully rendered by the Children of Mars- Choir. Rev.

Death of Mr. P. B. Durack The Passing of a Kimberley Pioneer Mr. Patrick Bernard Durack, a member of the well-known firm of Connor, Doherty and Durack, Ltd., died at the St, John of God Hospital, on Friday, the 30th. ult., at the age of 62 years. Mr. Durack recently visited Haddan Rig Station, in New South Wales, on business, and he was very ill when he returned, about the middle of last month. Mr. Durack, known far and wide as "P.B.," was the youngest son of a great pioneer pastoralist, who, more than two generations ago pioneered "the far Barcoo" in west-central Queensland, and established more than one large cattle station. In that fertile grazing territory, then many hundreds of miles from any centre of population, Mr. P. B. Durack was born. Myall blacks were almost as numerous and as wild as kangaroos. There he spent his early years, inbibing and inheriting those remarkable instincts which made him a genius in his uncanny knowledge of cattle, for to him every beast had separate features, which made them individually recognisable to him as human faces are to most people. In the ;ater rears of youth, he was educated at the Christian Brothers' College, Brisbane. Just about this period pastoral Australia was stirred by the accounts published by Mr, Alexander Forrest (the explorer) of the promising pastoral country of our Kirnberleys. The pioneering instincts of the father urged him on co another conquest. The Cooper's Creek stations were sold. The father was the moving spirit in organising a great expedition to open up Kimberley as a pastoral area. The family and mans- relatives moved to Kimberley, and to that distant country, after leaving college, went voting "P.B." Here for many years he assisted father, brothers and relatives to establish a string of cattle stations in East Kimberley and the Northern Territory. These great etations. carrying erobabls- 60,000 cattle, are still irs possession and being worked by Con nor. Doherty •ins: Derack, of which the Durack brothers are • the princlpel holders. When, some 2S Years ago, the firm took up nearly 20,000 acres, most of which was virgin countrse to develop as a cattle holding property, Mr. P. B. Dusack came south and took cha:ge of the work. Before long, acting on nis advice, the firm &sided to develop it
as a sheep property, and, again under his direction, launched out into Merino ram breeding. Behn Ord, the widely known stud sheep station of to-day., is the result. It is one of the most high ly developed properties in the State. Three-fourths_ of it s is cleared and brought in turn under the plough. Scv eral families and a number of other permanent hands are constantly ern. Mewed. The late Mr. P. B. Durack laid out and supervised the whole work from its inception until he left his hanBesides his work diwork for ever. at Behn Ord, Mr. Durack selected on his own account and was steadily developing 350,000 acres of pastoral country 70 miles north-east of Kalgoorlie. He was a man of extraordinary vigour, determination, and unbounded optimism in the future of his adopted State, and his death will be a great loss to Western Australia. Shortly after the Boer War, the late Mr. Durack's 'last operations in East Kimberley were in connection %with the shipment of 3,600 cattle from Wyndham to Durban, two boats being cliartered for the occasion—the St. Kilburn and the St. Fillans, carrying, respectively, 1,600 and 2,000 head. The latter freight was the largest consignment of stick to leave Australia in one bottom. It was shortly after this that Mr. Durack went to Wagin, on bebalf of the company, to start Behn Ord. R equiem Mass at St. Mary's Cathedral. A Requiem Mass was celebrated at St. Mary's Cathedral on last Saturday morning, for the repose of his soul. The Right Rev, Monsignor Verling was the celebrant A large and representative gathering of citizens attended the funeral. The cortege moved from St. Mary's Cathedral for the Karrakatta Cemetery. At the graveside .Rev. Father O'Neill read the burial service, assisted by Most Rev. Dr. Prendiyille (Co-adjutor-Archbishop-Elect). Dean Brennan, Rev. Dr. McMahon. and Father 1. O'Reilly. The pall-bearers were: Messrs. D. J. Doherty, C. T. Moran, H. C. Reid, F. G. Royce, P. Hales, and S. Stubbs, M.L A. The chief mourners were: E. and V. Durack (sons), J. W. Durack (brother . R. Summerhaves (son-in-law/. T. N. Davidson, K. Davidson. W. A. and D. Durack fnephews). M. F.. I. P. and P. M. Durack (cousins). Among the mane present at the graveside were the Rev. Brothers Power and Condon, of the Christian Brothers' College. R.I.P.
"Reformed" Theologian Writes on Newman
CARDINAL N
.\\.
"I know meself to be an honest Protestant, and it is precisely for this reason that I can value and admire a Catholic spirit such as that of Newman, and precisely for this reason can I recommend. a closer acquaintance with
him to our endless dogmatising and polemical corps of thleologians." These are the words of Dr. Johannes Hermanus Gunning, an aged and respected preacher of the Dutch Reformed Church, who has just issued a book on the life and works of the great English Cardinal. He himself regards this as the crowning point of his literary work which already comprised a metrical translation of the "Song of Songs" and over a hundred books and pamphlets of scriptural exegesis. s N-ow I have completed my book, however," he says, "I feel that my real study of Newman is only just beginning." Dr. Gunning has in addition to his book written a long letter to "De Maas. bode." a Catholic daily newspaper, in which he gives his reasons for making so complete a study of Newman and his works. • He hopes his book will be "a stimulant for many to learn to know, love and follow the man himself in all those matters in which he so much, deserves and demands this." And besides Newman himself, he hopes that it will encourage his readers to study and understand the conditions of others' religious life and particularly the conditions in E ngland.—"Universe."

OUR DEAD It is a holy and a wholesome thought to pray for the dead."
THE LATE MR. JOHN IAMB ELLUP. O'NEILL,
The death of the late Mr. Job, O'Neill occurred at Tambellup on Tune 27. The deceased gentleman was a son of the late Michael and Bridget O'Neill, of .Manoova. South Au-straiia, where the family was engaged in farming pursuits. Some 28 year ass .John, with his brothers, Michael Joseph, selected the property and now known as "The Castle," some six miles west of Tambellup. . and as the was developed from ie.; virgin state,land ex. cellent draught horses and sheep were raised. After a timeMerina decided to seek fresh fields, and [oho select. ed land in what was then censidsred the doubtful district of Gre.wareseiup, Frcrn then on the order of :he began, water-carting over long day die tances and wheat-carting by horse seam twenty-odd miles to the nearest siding, Broomehill. Privation or hardship did not sour the generous disposition which was ever ready to render practical assistance or give advice from his large range of farming experience to those in need, After disposing of the Gnowangerup properties, he lived in retirement with his brother Joseph and family, at the scene of their first venture. His ready frish wit and hearty laugh endeared him to a wide circle of friends and no appeal was ever made in vain. be ;t. in support or his pastor or a church building fund With his characteristie generosity he was always to the fore. Deceased had been in indifferent health for some tines east. and his death was not unexpected. His re mains were interred the Narrogin Cemetery: beside those his late wife who predeceased him s. me years ago and who was a _lister of the well knows Clancy brothers. of Gnee aneerup ani Katanning. His brother Michael re sides at Lake Grace. and Joseph at Tambellup. Mrs. Watson, of Perth. Mrs. Everett, of Broken Hill, and Mrs. Walsh, of Adelaide, are ,isters.
SUBIACO The entertainments ereanised by the stall-holelers in connec-,ien with the f orthcoming bazaar, in aid of the new church building fund, are still very popular, and that hel,i on Tuesday evening last, July 4, at the Casey home, McCourt-street, West Leedtraille, in aid of the St. Vincent De Paul Stall, was one of the most ensesable to date. The great hospitality of the genial Case,- family is largely responsible for the success of the evenings held in their home.

Mexican Youth •
Corruption of Students' (By Charles Betico, M exico City Correspondent. N.C.W.C. News Service.) With persecution increasing in the States of Mexico, priests being arrested, and public officials making inflammatory speeches calculated to arouse enmity towards religion, the spread of immorality among the Youth of the land is causing grave concern. The Rev. Juan Garcia has been arrested at Corre.gidora. State of Queretaro, and taken to the State capital, where he was charged with having officiated as a priest without being authorised. In most of the States persecution of Catholics is increasing daily. The tolerance in the nation's capital is attributed to the presence of the diplomatic c orps. Narciso Basso's. Secretary of Public Education, in his tour of the States of Campecha. Tabasco and Yucatan, delivered several public addresses. In the course of a speech at Mascupana, State of Tabasco, in praising the work of administration under Garrida Canaval, Bassols said: "The Revolutionary
conquest realised in Tabasco is so complete as to have saved multitudes from the mournful vice of alcoholism, as well as having freed their consciences from the yoke of religious dogma." Religious worship has been suspended in Tabasco. and no Catholic priest is al lowed to officiate there. With the spread of atheistic and Communistic teachings and the limitation or even elimination of religious instruction, immorality is increasing to such an extent as to cause grave concern. The most tragic feature is that the youth of the nation, forced to attend official schools where they are denied moral and spiritual training, are most frequently the victims. Especially revolting is the information just brought to light be the authorities in the Capital. that 20 girls, the eldest 16 and the Youngest 14, and all pupils of an official school. have been seduced and confined in a house of ill repute. A, teacher at the school is said to be involved.

As two week-ends occur 'between the matches of July 22-23 and August 12-13, it is anticipated the pennant committee wilt' have no objection to making this date free. If the projected trip can be gone on with, it should prove a most enjoyable and interesting outing.

In the meantime, members and friends are asked to reserve August 6. Miss Bath. Pearson. Members of the Association deeply regret the unfortunate accident which happened to Miss Kath.

Odds AND
Ends key. Father Charles E. Coughlin, of Detroit, narrowly missed being injured or killed when a bomb explosion partly wrecked his home in Detroit. The spectacular bombing came as a climax to the priest's tireless campaign against high finance and the banking system. Father Coughlin has been one of the most active enemies of big business in the bitter fight among Detroit bankers which resulted in the moratorium being proclaimed by Governor Corn. stock. The bomb was planted in the basement of his home, directly beneath the bedroom where he was sleeping. He was severely shaken, and thrown out of bed by the explosion. Two other occupants of the house, Father Tully and Father Williams were also badly shaken. Father Coughlin is said to have received threats against his life unless he ceased his talks on local buinesss finance and banking. He particularly attacked the city's politicians, gangsters, and gambling. Leprosy has claimed as a victim the Rev. Peter d'Orgeval, a successor of Father Damien at Molokai. Like Father Damien, Father d'Orgeval is a Belgian and a member of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, often called the Picpus Fathers from the name of their house in Paris. Father d'Orgeval is a former army chaplain. six times decorated for bravery in action. Por several months last year the Rev. .Joseph Sweeney. of New Britain, Conn.. a ,Maryknoll missionary, was the guest of Father d'Orgeval at Molokai. Father Sweeney has laboured for ten years in the Orient. and has now been assigned by his superiors to found a leper asylum in the Maryknoll Kongrnoon Vicariate of South China. He has been making a study of methods and conditions in leper colonies of the Orient. Father' Sweeney said Father d'Orgeval had no fear whatsoever of leprosy. The Belgian missionary will now be confined permanently to Molokai but this will scarcely be a hardship. as in the past he only left the island upon rare occasions and with the greatest reluctance. • • Rev. Pius Hanley, who was ordained priest of the Trappist Order at New Mellerav Abbey, Peosta. U.S.A., is the eighth member of the family who has. entered .the religious life. Two bro. there are Trappists. and a third a De La Salle. Brother, while four sisters are nuns. Father Pius was born in Ire. land where his mother, Mrs. Ngra Hanley, still lives. Two of his aunts, Sisters of Mercy, were present at his ordination. An armed mob threatened to murder Father Dighi de Sauza, founder of the Goa Lepers Asylum, which last month celebrated the first anniversary of its opening. The people feared that the priest, from his contact with the lepers, would spread the infection through the city. Four days after the asylum was opened. therefore, they came by night to kill him, but he hid himself, and remained concealed until their fears had been allayed. The pur pose of the asylum is to gather into one big colony all the lepers in various parts of India, whose original home was in Goa; there are some 300. The plans call for a number of small houses on the crest of a hill. each house to ac. commodate two sufferers. Christian, muslim. and Hindu will he received, and each community will be able to have servants belonging to its own faith. Father Dighi. the founder, became interested in the work of lepers in 1896 when, on a visit to the Ven gurla Asylum, the patients told him that they had not seen a priest for three years. Presence of mind in a woman saved one of Madrid's biggest churches from destruction by a bomb. The woman noticed a man standing in a dark corn. er strike a light to something he held in his hand, and then place an object in an empty Confessional box. Nervously she Whispered her suspicions to a well-dressed stranger who was kneel. ing in prayer. He got up, and, losing not a second, put out the lighted fuse with his fi ngers, The. object was a bomb. If it had exploded it would have wrecked the church and killed those who were attending Mass.

Honoured by King Kevin O'Doherty Waters, The King's Most Excellent Majesty has. on the recommendation oi Aunt Besse, conferrcd upon the Wandering Minstrel the Knighthood of the Grand Order of Cinderella's Slipper, and all correspondence addressed to him will in future have the letters CS. appen 1ed to his present titles. This honour has been conferTed on the Wandering Minstrel in re ogniticn of his having successfully tracked down a missing packet of letters sent. to A.B. by her nephev.s in Victoria Pik. but which were lost en route, the packet having been delivered to the Monastery of Wingless Angels, instead of to "The Record" office. All's well that ends well. but A.B. felt very uncomfortable when she rend certain acctiat;ons which referred to her having not printed the letters because she had turned her Victoria Park nephews down—a thing which is never likely to happen. The Grand Order of Cinderella's Slipper, of which the Wandering Minstrel is now the privileged recipient, is as ancient as Cinderella herself, and has only been conferred on one other person. namely, the beautiful Prince who discovered Cinderella's glass slipper after the ball Ava,, over and the clock had chimed twelve.

Fremantle C.Y.M.S. The second annual general meeting of the Fremantle Branch of the C.Y.3.I.S. was held on Thursday evening, June 29, in the Club Rooms. Mr. F. Collins • presided over a fair attendance of members. After the minutes of the first annual general meeting had been read, the chairman, in the unavoidable absence of Mr. Paul, read the secretary's report, which dealt chiefly with the progress made by the branch during the past year, the success of both indoor and outdoor functions, the unfailing regularity of the executive to attend meetings, and their good work, the interest manifested by the Chaplain and the ( Rev. Father Ryan, generous and untiring help rendered by the ladies' committee. The report also disclosed that the membership of the branch totalled 90, that dances were the chief source of revenue, and that the bank balance showed a healthy credit. The elections for the ensuing twelve months, at which financial members were permitted to vote, resulted as fol. lows: President, Mr. G. Jeffs (pending approval of the Board of Manage, ment); vice-president, 3,.1r. 13. Roddy: treasurer, Mr. M. Ryan; secretary, Mr. G. Paul; assistant secretary, Mr. R. Smith; warden, Mr. A.

Collins) urged members to do all in their power to strengthen the society's ranks He paid a special tribute to the excellent work done by the committee and the chaplain. Thursday evening ( July 13) is the date of the next dance. A large crowd is being catered for. The services of a first-class orchestra have been secured. The branch have been very unfortunate with their football fixtures this season. Near-by centres in Mandurah, Piniarrah, Armadale, Byford, Mt.

St. Ildephonsus' College, New Norcia
A CHEERFUL WORD. St, Francis of Sales: "Be as cheerful as you can in well-doing, for there is a certain grace in good deeds when they are done cheerfully."
Past Versus Present Students. A good roll call marked the annual football match between the Past and Present students of St. Ildephonsus' College, staged at Leederville Oval, on Wednesday, June 28. Although inclement weather conditions threatened to mar the enjoyment of the afternoon, it was not until the end of the first term that a shower commenced, but this did not in any way interfere with the result of the game. The students fielded a good team, although several of their leading lights were unable to make the journey. Bill Anderson's presence at full back was greatly missed, and had he been stationed there, the Old Boys' score would have been considerably lessened, However, the team did well to hold the formidable combination, including as it did such a number of League players or potential League players. Among these were Dick Bryant, Jack and Tim Lalor, Jack Clune, George Jeffs, and Barrett, along with others who in their college career formed the backbone of the first eighteen. In the opening term the Old Boys established a rather substantial lead, in spite of Toe O'Halloran's somewhat erratic shooting, but in the next quarter the boys rallied and drew near their opponents. In the third spasm, however, the visitors adopted a policy of attemting to "run the field," with the result that gradually they lost their grip of the game. Often, when short passes would have resulted in a score, they tried to break through the crushes, without any success. The game with the Old Boys' storming theended r01. le back division. For the winners, no one was more useful than G. Barrett; tic was constantly calling for applause by his heady play. Dick Bryant demonstrated that he has lost none of his nippyness that earned him his football reputation a few years ago, while Tack Lalor, of East Perth fame, showed a turn of speed. Les. Wood, at centre half forward, was conspicuous; Jack Clune rucking and defending solidly; Horton, on the wing, V. Byrne, and Teffs shone for the remainder. No one was really outstanding the College, but perhaps individufor al. henours might be divided among Maurice Maher and Bert Bandy. Campbell gave a good display atKeith forward, while Maunsell. Repachfull oli, Polinelli and Lang also pleased. Geoff. Clarke and Gilchrist were useful on their respective wings. The final scores were: Old Boys. 14 goals 18 behinds; Present Boys, 9 goals 7 behinds. Mr. Alan Evans had charge of the whistle, and pleased all with his impartial display.
THE SPECTACLE OF LIFE. Were I to be now at the hour of my dying, and were I to gaze back with one last, long, lingering look on the days that were gone, could the words of the Psalmist rise to my lips: "They that fear Thee shall see me and shall be glad, because I have greatly hoped in Thy words"? In my life have been joys whose tasting was very sweet, and maybe many a lengthening shadow; but, whether sunshine came or shadow fell, did I so stand the test of light and shade as to give pleasure to the friends of God? When life was very happy and the cup of its wine was richest, did I always show that my heart was firmly set on the imperishable treasures beyond the grave? The world was ,indeed, a pleasant place. But did all still know that I felt an exile's cravings? Then, when the light we loved so well was torn away and darkness with its frightening shadows fell, did light from another world light up my eye and guide my steps and cheer my heart? Oh, it is a goodly thing to see a valiant, fearless soldier stand the brunt of battle well nor fall from highest aims in times of peace. Is this the spectacle my life affords to angels and men who are the friends of God? God grant it is! —Francis P. Le Buffe, S.J. GOD'S REQUIREMENTS. Mar. was created to praise God Our Lord, to reverence Him and serve Him, and thereby to save his soul, God looks for these things from the men whom He has created according to their capacities. And capacities vary vastly: here they dwindle down till mortal eye can eee no capacity left at all. "To whomsoever much is given, much is asked of him" (Luke xii., 48); and we ma" conclude: little of him to whom little is given. Whatever capacity I have of praising, reverencing and serving God I am meant to put it forth, and to attain the fullest salvation within my reach. That is enough for me to know, and much for me to do. I am to praise ,reverence and serve, and finally to "love the Lord my God with all my strength" (Mark xii., 30).—T. Rickaby. S.J. WISHES IN PRAYER. "The Lord be with You." So the priest repeatedly greets the people at Mass. It is a very ancient greeting, going back to the times of the early Christians and beyond. Through all these ages it has not lost any of its original meaning. The priest, in wishing that the Lord be with the faithful, wishes them every blessing, for where the Lord is there is all good. He wishes them above all the grace to pray well during Holy Mass, for to pray well is to live well, and to have the Lord always with one The priest emphasises his wish with the meaningful gesture of open hands and extended arms, showing thereby that his good wishes, which are at once prayers, are for all; indicating also the abundance of grace which he prays max- descend on all. The people answer through the server: "And with Thy spirit." May our greetings not merely be returned through the server, but come simultaneously from our hearts. By this exchange of prayerful good wishes there is renewed the union of priest and people in common sacrifice, which makes the Mass so appealing to the true Christian heart FATHER DEGEN'S POINTERS. Light-heartedness and the power to forget enable a man to carry on cheerfully in spite of the hardest of knocks It often requires more courage to be happy than to be unhappy. The best type of worker is the man who regards his employment as a vocation rather than a job, and can't stand work badly done, Whilst candour between friends is• more wholesome than candy, there is no reason why the former should- not be seasoned with the latter. Far too much money is lavished on floral tributes to the dead, who wish for_no other flower save the forget-menot of prayer. Beware of the easy-going Aentimental optimism of the fools' paradise.
