Thus concluded one of the most historic days in the history of the West. His Excellency looks the picture of health and vigour, and has had a pleasant trip right through. He expressed himself as being particularly pleased with the warmth of the welcome which awaited him, and there is little doubt but that the high talent and charming personality of His Excellency will be used to good advantage for the glory of God and the welfare of the Church in Australasia. The interest awakened in the secular press by the distinguished visitor's arrival was really remarkable. Representatives from all the papers in the city awaited his arrival in Fremantle. and, accompanied the procession to Perth.

The Catholics of Perth do not need to be told of the extent of the work dc.ne by His Grace since he became Archbishop. His first task was to free_ the Archdiocese from the heavy debts with which it was encumbered. This was not an easy matter, and it w as most unpleasant for him to have to make his first visitation in the • guise of a beggar," but with the generous co-operation of his priests and people, he managed to reduce the debt by nearly £70,000 during the first year of his episcopate. No more successful effort has been recorded in the ecclesiastical, history of Australia.

In 1914 His Grace established St. Vincent's Foundling Home for neglected children of tender age. and placed it under the care of the Sisters of Mercy In the cause of Catholic education His Grace has left nothing undone in order to raise our schools to the highest standard. To ensure their progress and efficiency, he secured for them State inspection.
Most Rev. P. J. Clune, C.SS.R. Archbishop of Perth
A fter the death of Dr. Griver, in January, 18,87. Dr. Gibney was consecrated Bishop. thus entering on a period of his life during which he rendered incalculable services to the Church in Western Australia. The Geraldton Diocese was founded in 1898, and the Order of the Redemptorist Fathers and Oblates. as well as several Orders of Nuns, were brought to this Mission field. The following statistics will give the best idea of the work done by this realous Prelate. In 1887. the Diocese had one Bishop. 12. clergy. one Cathedral, 12 churches. 11 primary schools. 63 nuns. 2 orphanages. 3 superior schools, and 1,400 children attending z he institutions. When Dr. Gibney retired from office, in 1910. there were three Dioceses, and in that of Perth alone there were 23 districts. '31 churches, 1 college, 21 superior schools. 4.3 primary schools. 2 orphanages 2 reformatories. 1 Magda'en A sylum, 2 hospitals. I Monastery. and
Catholic attending 6,880 children schools. He was also instrumental in having 46 priests educated and brought Dr. Gibney died on to the Diocese. the 21st. June, 1925, in the 90th. year of his age. The present Archbishop, the Most Rev. Dr. Clune, first came to Perth as one of a small band of Redemptorist Fathers, invited by Dr. Gibney. 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, they devoted themselves to the extension and development of the Church in the West. spending themselves in the service of their fellow-men. In 1904 his superiors appointed him. to foufid a Monastery in New Zealand. where he remained as Rector until 1909. when he returned to the West.

A long-felt want in the State was supplied when His Grace brought over from Sydney the Little Sisters of the Poor. Since their arrival the aged poor have been provided with a happy home and rest and comfort in their declining years. The crowning work of his episcopate has been the building of a magnificent Cathedral. which, when completed, will be an enduring monument to the faith and love of God of the Catholics of West Australia. and onc of the most beautiful Cathedral sanctuaries in the Southern Hemisphere.
ST. MARY'S CATHEDRAL is one of the great works of His Grace the Archbishop
Most Rev. Dr. Prendiville is one of the best known and popular of the priests of the Archdiocese. He is a man of strong character, athletic and robust, and with his brilliant parts he should go a long way- in the future history of the Church in this State Hard work and complex ictsues are sure to confront him. but those who know him intimately are confident that he will meet his obstacles with equanimity, and by patience and courage, and practical common sense, conquer them. Still in the flowering of his. manhood, there is the promise of many years of fruitful work before him, and the prayers of the Catholic community of this Archdiocese is that Divine Providence will grant him many happy and fruitful years in the wit-To of Holy Church

It is to offer Excellency, with all the warmth and sinceritv that words can convey, a most dutiful and cordial wel"ne on behalf of the Hierarchy. ClergY• Religious and of people West .Australia. We would esteem a great honour and privilege 'n receive the direct representative of '!le 11°1v See on any occasion. but in addition to our fealty and loyalty to th' Illy See, we have especial reason thank your Excellency for your kind II(1 gracious recponse to our invitation ° c onsecrate the Coadjutor Archbishop, for the added spiritual lustre which 'ciur Excellency's presence and Per' flriality will adOrn us with. This great 'F'tate of Atest Australia. as You may l'""rd. is called the Golden West, "f th'. immense treasures of that have been, and are being, extrt.:d ;':1 from its soil. May I not add 't lS golden State in another 01:7 Trir'7e intimately connected with o Velebrations, viz , in the rich tribute fro ' :Ind esteem that wells up m the depths of our Catholic hearts
towards the Holy See and its distinguished Ambassador. We had the honour and privilege of receiving a distinguished predecessor of yours on his way to the Sydney Eucharistic Congress. the late Cardinal Ceretti, the first Apostolic Delegate to Australia who, like your Excellency, came to us from Washington. May we not hope that as, in his case, so in yours, the Australian Church may have the privilege and the joy, not only of saluting the dawn of your sacred diplomatic career, but also later on of gazing on its meridan splendour when your brilliant talents, your ripe scholarship, and your wise administration will be rewarded by the Red Hat in the Papa! Curia, Your Excellency has had a very extensive and meticulous knowledge of the Church, its multiform activities, the dispositions of its members towards the Holy See in many lands, but I venture to state that. in no part of the globe have you found, or will you find, a Hierarchy, a Priesthood, a body of Religious, and a laity more loyal and devoted to the Holy See than here in Australia. Yoor Excellency has come as an illustrious living link to cement Your and consolidate that union. genial persona: contact will be a joy Your world-wide exand inspiration. perience, Your expert knowledge of Church legislation, and probably of the social economic problems that the Church will have to deal with in the futere, will ire -t very valuable help and a clarifying guidance to us here in AusAgain thanking your Exceltralia. lency most cordially for the signal honour yeti have conferred on us here in the West, we earnestly pray that Almighty God may abundantly bless your Apostolic administration, and that your years among us may be years o f health and happiness, and tranquil enjoyment of the genial climatic influences of our sunny land. APOSTOLIC DELEGATE'S REPLY. Address to Australia. His Excellency the Apostolic Delegate then replied, and expressed great pleasure at the welcome accorded him by Archbishop Clone from the citizens He said: of Perth. I have the honour and the pleasure to address for the first time the Catholics of Australia. For you who are present must represent for me all of that great body of faithful, so splendidly organised and so sincere, so loyal, which is found throughout this land address you, therefore, as if you were the mass of a million and a half Catholics to whom I come as the representative of the Holy Father. I must tell you that all during my long journey from Rome the thought that I was approaching your shores produced in me the same reaction as though I were iting a sacred place, feelings of reverence and veneration for the Church in Australia speaks eloquently of loyalty and devotion, of self-sacrifice and perseverance. and, thank God. of final tri umph and victory. First of all, let me express my happiness in being among you. From the first moment that I knew of my appointment. there has been ever present in me mind a desire and a determination to serve the Church of God here in Australia as well as I am able. May it be in the designs of Providence that may he a worthy successor to His Eminence the late Cardinal Cerette founder of the Apostolic Delegation in A ustralia. and of His Excellency Archbishop Cattaneo, my immediate predecessor. I wish in the first place to salute ths Hierarchy of Australia, the Most TZ:\ A rchbishops and Bishops. I sabite them particularly in the persons of tl-le distinguished members who are here present to-day. I hope for the privilege of meeting each of them soon. and look forward with keen anticipation to their advice and counsels and to the warm friendship which I am to cultivate among them. I wish to salute also the Clergy of all the Dioceses throughout Australia, worthy successors of those missionaries who by their generous sacrifice laid down the deep and solid foundation of the Australian Church. I view with satisfaction now the opportunities which were mine during my early days in Rome. to meet among the students of the Propaganda College. young men who were destined
to serve here in the priesthood. They -impressed me with, their frankness and their warm cordiality, and I am sure that I will find these traits among all of the 2.000 and more friends who are labouring so successfully in this new Continent. I am told that there are over 1,000 teaching Brothers in your splendid school system. This is wonderful. Let all of them feel assured that I am come to promote their activities in every way possible. I was astonished and extremely pleased to learn that there are over 10,000 Sisters within my jurisdiction. Nothing to me is a surer indication of a floutishing Catholic life, for wherever there are Sisters, there are institutions con ducted with devotion. Finally, 'let the lay-Catholics of Australia feel assured that I come with my heart already warm with affection towards them. Their reputation has gone forth to the word. In Rome, throughout Eerope and throughout A merica, the vigour and strength of your new brand of Catholicism, so magnificently demonstrated on the occasion of the Eucharistic Congress, are common knowledge. The faith of your forefathers burns brightly here in this new land. To God whom you love, you have raised lasting monuments— churches, houses of education and of charity—insitutions which vie with those of fat older lands. On the eve of my departure from R ome. I was called into the presence of our Holy Father, and from his lips I received the commission to bear to Australia his warmest and richest bless ings. To you, then, and to all the people of n-ty jnriediction. I impart the Blessing which I bring you from the Vatican. May God shower on you and all your dear ones His sweetest graces and His choicest gifts
After His Excellency finished the -tctdress His Grace Archbishop Clune intoned the ''Te Deum." as a prayer of thanksgi ing for the auspicious arrival of the Apostolic Delegate, and the hymn was taken up and intoned to the end by the Priests' Choir. His Excellency was then escorted from the Cathedral amidst the welcoming cheers of the crowds, many of whom approached to kiss his ring, in filial affection. His Excellency, together with the visiting dignitaries, was entertained to luncheon afterwards at St. Mary's, Victoria Square, by His Grace Archbishop Clune, On Wednesday morning His Excellency, accompanied by Archbishop Clune and Dr. Prendiville paid a courtesy call on His Excellency the Lieutenant Governor, Sir James Mitchell. the Premier, Mr. Collier. and the members of the Cabinet. at Parliament House. On Wednesday afternoon, His Excellency. accompanied by the Coadjutor Archbishop, motored to New Norcia, where he was the guest of the Lord Abbot, and returned to Perth on F-ri• day morning. On Friday night, the Apostolic Delegate was present at a Conversazione held in his honour at the Government House Ballroom, to which State and public officials were invited. On Sunday (to-morrow) the Apostolic Delegate will consecrate the Most Rev. Dr. Prendiville as Coadjutor Archbishop of Perth. His Excellency intends to leave towards the end of next week, in continuation of his journey to the Eastern S tates.

TO-MORROW'S CEREMONY THE CONSECRATION OF A
BISHOP
The Episcopacy is the continuation of Apostolic ministry through an uninthe terrupted series of Bishops, front its institution by Christ down to our own day. It is of Divine faith as the Council of Trent declares, "that there is in the church a Hierarchy instituted by Divine ordinance, which consists of Bishops, priests, and ministers (deacons.)" The Bishops, then, are the successors of the Apostles, con,e,..1-ated "to rule the Church of God," with p-wer to coniirm the faithful, to ordain priests, and give them the Gospel and adauthority to minister the ›:L - raments, and with power. also, to cnsecrate other Bishops.

MOST REV. DR. PR ENDIVILLE. Coadjutor
Archbishop Elect. I.; hose Consecration takes place to-morrow.
The Consecration of Dr. Prendiyille as Coadjutor to His Grace is of great interest to the Catholic community of the State, inasmuch as he has been selected by the Holy Father from the priests of the Archdi(-icese, and will be the young:st in the Hierarchy of the Church. He

A custom has ctnne down from the Apostolic times that the Consecrating Bishop and the Bishop-Elect should fast on the day before consecration. In the Acts of the Apostles 2 and 3) we read how. after fasting and prayer. Saul and Barnabas were selected by the Holy Ghost for the ministry of the Gospel, and were consecrated by the elders of the Church at Antioch.

The Introit c f to-day's Mass is a plea for mercy: "All that Thou hast done to us, 0 Lord, Thou hast done in true judgment, because we have sinned against Thee: but give glory to Thy name, and deal with us according to the multitude of Thy mercy." We might call this Mass a lesson on the mercy of God, for the Mass Prayer repeats the same sentiment. It asks for pardon and its accompanying peace for the people of God, "that they may be Is th cleansed 1,om all trangressions and serve Him with a quiet mind "

His Excellency has already endeared himself to those who have had the privilege of meeting him, and bids fair to win the confidence and respect of all sections of the Australian people.

HIS EXCELLENCY A On Wednesday afternoon His Exce: lency the Apostolic Delegate, accompanied by Dr. Prendiville, left by car for New Norcia. his' Excellency ro turned to Perth on Friday morning. The Benedictine Aborigines Mission of New Norcia was founded by the late Bishop Salvado—then Don't Rudesindo Salvadi.-- in the year 1846. on the first of March, his own birthday. With him were Father (afterwards Bishop) Serra, and two Benedictine lay-Brothers. These great Apostles came to the Western shores with hearts burning with zeal and a courage ready to face every difficulty and endure all kinds of hardships in the work of evangelising the aboriginals. Having chosen the present site of the Mission, about 80 miles from Perth. as the centre of his labours, Dom SaivadOs.sfur“sruare was. to provide home not only for his community, but also for the natives; whose - bodily and spiritual welfare were the foremost objects in his scheme for the spread of the Faith.

A small .Government grant of some acres of land was the material placed in the Community's hands for providing themselves with the necessaries of life.

Teresa Neumann: The Stigmatist of Konnersreuth Impressions of an Eye Witness Very 'Rev. Father Bonaventure, C.P., the Visitor General of the Passionists, who passed through Perth recently, on his return to Rome, gives below a most interesting impr ession of his visit to this remarkable Bavarian prodigy:
004
"I am asked about Teresa Neumann, stigmatizata of Konnersreuth. I saw her several years ago during the Passion ectasy. I lived in Munich in 1926 and 1927, and often met both clergy and laity who had seen the extraordinary things that were taking place Friday after Friday in the Bavarian village. Knowing that thousands upon thousands of people were inconveniencing Teresa's father and mother, and her excellent parish priest and confessor, Father Nabor, 1 hesitated to go see for myself the wonderful things that were making Konnersreuth world-wide known. I closely followed the Konnersreuth mysterious happenings. I. became convinced that God Himself was the Author of what was taking place at Konnersreuth, and, being a Passionist, the Passion ectasy and the stigmata manifesting itself week after week upon her who bore the marks of Jesus Crucified upon her hands and feet, and brow and heart. c ,uld but be of great interest to me Yet it was not until a couple of years later that I decided to seize the first opportunity that presented itself tc visit Konnersreuth and see with my own eyes the work of God upon the humble maid. I was living in Aus tr4 near Vienna, at the time. Having read a booklet on Teresa Neumann, written by Bishop Waltz, of Voralberg, Austria, in which he recommended priests to pay a visit to Konnersreuth, and to see the Passion Ectasy,I gladly followed his advice. Duty called me to Bavaria, and before long 1 f ound myself in Konnersreuth. I WU accompanitd by one of my confreres, who was Superior of the Passionist Nfonastery as Pasing, Munich. nti our way to Konnersreuth we s tepped off at Regensburg (Ratisbon). to pay a visit to our friend. the Rt. Rev. Bishop Bushberger. and to get permission from him to see Teresa Neumann. We arrived in konners reuth on Thursday, shortly after midWe found a goodly number of day. people standing in front of the humble Neumann home waiting for their turn to see Teresa and to speak to her. The time allotted on Thursday to receiving those who had received the Rt. Rev. Bishop's permission to see Teresa had expired. Herr Neumann finall ' asked us who were still standing out on the melting snow to be content with seeing Teresa on the morrow. as Tei(e,a was suffering mut* and had ha, come quite exhausted by the trying ordeal of the last two hours or so. Of course it was not pleasant to have to forego seeing Teresa out of ectasy and speaking to her. However, all of us let Herr Neumann know that his will leas our will. and we quietly crossed ecer to visit Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and to pray where Teresa had p rayed ever since her childhood. Wishing to celebrate Mass early next morninp, my companion and I decided to retire very early. However, we had not counted upon the pleasure of meetine quite a number of the men of the village and entering upon a most interesting conversation with them. and about Teresa. or "Resi" as they call her. The sentiment of the men o f the village and their convictions on the mysterious phenomena which was taking place in their midst. and upon one whom they had known from her infancy, is. I presume .a good index to the proper explanation of Konnersreuth's extraordinary happenings. One could not but realise that these men were conscious that one of their villagers had been chosen lw God to suffer much. They sympathised NOth her. Long ago they had been convinced that what took place in Teresa was God's work. They had known her frem her childhood. She was a ATong, healthy. cemmon-sense gir;. She was not different from her companions. Like them she went to school, worked ie the fields and in the house, went to c hurch, and frequently received the : acraments. Tree, one could see that she loved _lostis in the Tabernacle, and that she love-1 to make the Stations of the Cross. When the men were awa,a at the Front (luring the trying .days of the World War. She took their place at the plough, and the other hard manual work of the fields. W hile helping to extinguish a are. lifting up pails of water to be poured on the burning barn, something snap. ped—and Teresa became a helpless invalid. For six long years she lay on her bed of pain, and was totally blind
for about four years. It was God's Will, and so she was perfectly content Then she heard a voice, the voice of the 'Little Flower," St. Teresa of the Infant Jesus, and her sightless eyes now saw. Afterwards the voice spoke again from amid a bright light, and she was perfectly cured. Shortly afterwards she found herself in exalted prayer, and now she no long er needed to picture . her suffering God to herself, for she saw Him face to face, how, she knew not. And then the astonished maid saw the stigmata appearing on her hands and feet and brow. .And ever since she has been suffering—and suffering with Jesus Crucified, for the sinful world. How could they, the village people, do otherwise than sympathise with her. who was after all but one of themsel ves. The night was getting late, and had we not arranged to offer up the Holy Sacrifice very early next morning! We knew that there were 18 other visiting priests in Konnersreuth, and so we bade the men good-night, asking one of their number to show us to the humble house where we were lodged. Have you ever seen a Bavarian country house? Everything is under one roof. I had a very clean and tidy room just beside the hay loft, and beneath me were the cows dreaming of the good things they had eaten and drunk during the day just passed, and imagining the luscious food that their masters would give them as soon as they got hungry again. slept sounily and early the next morning was in the church at the appointed time. What was our surprise to find that severa !priests were already at the altar, and that a goodly number of people were already in the church. We had prevailed upon the parish priest to have the church opened one half an hour ahead of the unia. time, and we were in the sacristy at the time agreed upon. It was a pleasant surprise to find that others had gotten the sacristan to open the church e ven much earlier on this day, which w ould evef, be memorable in our lives. We vested and celebrated Holy Mass The priest at the High Altar did not finish at S3O, so ha order to leave that altar free for good Father Ndbor. who always celebrated Mass at 6 o'clock, I was directed to the altar of the Little ower. an altar so dear to Teresa Neumann. All morning the priests were hearing confessions. Holy Communion w as received. so I would judge, by all t he visiting people who had come to see Teresa, as well as practically by the people of the village attending the various Masses. A fter making our thanksgiving, we returned to our quarters for breakfast. Then we again stood before the Neumann residence, just across the street from the church. I noticed that as the people came out after seeing Teresa the- were as if deep in thought. ard one after another went directly o ver to the church. Our turn came to enter. Ten of us a t a time were let into the door, and as we entered the door. Herr Neumann lookd at our card gotten from the Pis. hop. He motioned to us to enter into a rather large room to the left of the entrance, and then closed the door. Over in cne corner sat one of his sons working 1-msilv with the needle. He did not look up at us. but kept busily plying his needle. The Neumann family are the village tailors, as you may know. They are not by any means wealthy, and must work diligently to earn their livelihood. Herr Neumann entered again, and nee more glanced at our cards. Those of the laity he kept, returning the card to the priests after he had slightly t orn them. The clergy are privileged t o return again and be present from 12 o'clock until the Passion ectasy is over. Shortly afterwards the group that were upstairs left the house. and it was our turn to go up to Teresa's room just overhead . I went up the steps, determined to glance around the room to see the. flowers, fish, and pictures and altars, or little shrines, that I had le-an t. Teresa has in her room. She is very fond of flowers and fishes. And as to the shrines and holy pictures I 1,11 scen them so often in Bavarian A astrian homes. As I entered the room. I hastily glanced around it but once rm- eves rested upon Teresa in the Passion ectasy, they were fixed upon her until

The Spiritual Life READING'S FOR THE HOME. C ROOKED. The little picture of the Mother of God Hangs crooked upon the wall, Blue and bright gold like a butterfly pinned askew, Only it does not fall, As, stooping ever and falling never, an eagle Hangs winged over all. And it suddenly seemed that the whole long room was tilted Like a cabin in stormy seas; The solid table and strong upstanding lamp and the inkstand Leaned like stiff shrubs in a breeze And the windows looked out upon slanted plains and meadows As on slanted seas. And I knew in a flash that the whole wide world was sliding; Ice and not land. And men were swaying and sliding, and nations staggered A nd could not stand: Going down to the ends of the earth, going down to destruction, On either hand. And knowing the whole world stiff with the crack of doom, I pick up my pen and correct and make notes, and write small: And go on with the task of the day. seeing unseeing What hangs over all: The awful eyes of o ur Lady, who hangs so straight Upon the crooked wall. —G. K. Chesterton WITH SAINT AND SAGE. If we reflect that the Son of God left the bosom of His Father through obedience to serve us, we shall not find it very difficult to submit to our superiors for the sake of God, nor to de prive ourselves of any comfort through obedience. He who resigns the world is in constant possession of a serene mind, but he who follows its pleasure often meets with nothing hut remorse and confusion. Desire nothing else ,however good it tyriv appear. hut according to the rule of the Divine Will. He who would be rich in virtues must neglect no opportunity of exercising them. The enemy of our nature is much grieved when a soul opens itself to a good confessor or to some spiritual person who knows his cunning and malice, for he foresees that when once his snares have been laid bare, he will no longer be able to complete his treacherous work. The works of God are always done little by little: they have their commencements and their progress. —St • Vincent de Paul. Prize thv honour higher than thy life, but esteem it little to lose both for the love of Jesus Christ. 0 my Jesus. crucified for me, with the nails of Thy love attach my whole being to Thyself. --St. Bernardine. We ma:- form a powerful league and 1 . allied with many cities and great personages: but what good will it be if we are not united to God. One must not pretend to do all in 4. moment, in haste, nor think all is lost if one does not become perfect at once. - -st. Vincent de Paul. - Never look upon thyself as the conqueror. We ought to work and stt. fer for God: unless thou bast overcome thevself and for the rest. l t Him make us according to his great pleasure, for t he fulfilment of His most holy Will should be our sole wish and only desire. CHARITY. The chief plenary indulgence, which is within reach of everybody, and can be gained without the ordinary condith ns, is that of charity—which "coyereth a multitude of sins.--St. Ther e-e of Lisieux. FACING UP TO OUR FAULTS. When we are guilty of a fault, we must never attribute it to some physical cause, such as illness or the weather. We must ascribe it to our own imperfections. without being discouraged thereby. 'Occasions do not make a man frail, I -t 5-l-e,w what he is" - St. The7.ese of Lisieux. YOUR STOVE REPAIRED AS NEW, WESTERN STOVE CO.. WELLINGTTON STREET ( Opp. Perth Hospital). R B6307.
THE RECORD. GOD ALONE. The more one appears to lose with God, the more one gains; the more He deprives us of the natural, the more He gives us of the supernatural. We loved Him a little for His gifts; when these are no longer perceptible, we arrive at loving Him for Himself alone.— Pere de Caussade, S.J. WINNING TO GOD. There is but one way to win to God. That way is this: to free the fettered spirit; to make void the cumbered heart; to force the faculties to renounce their normal overlordship and their natural functioning, that they may give place to the infused illumination of the supernatural.—St. John of the Cross. FIRE OF HOLY LOVE. This fire of holy love burneth. and burneth not, for it hurneth the bands, wasteth the cords, consumeth tribulations, and taketh away the chains of sins, but it burneth not so much as the hairs of the head of the children, who are made innocent and clean in the burning flames of pure love of our Saviour and merciful sweet --RI. R Southwell, S.J. Jesus. TRUE CHARITY. Charity should never look behind. but always ahead, because the numbei of her past good deeds is always small. whereas the present and future miseries which she must solace are infinite. Look at the philanthropic associations, all made up of assemblies, reports. accounts, memoirs, so that, before being a year in existence, they already possess large volumes of official proceedings. For proud Dame Philanthropy, who loves to admire her. cif the glass, good actions are a sort of adornment. But charity is a tender mother, with her eyes so fixed on the child she carries at her breast that she thinks of herself no longer ancl forgets her beauty for her love —.F7ed eric Ozanam. THE WISDOM OF FATHER DE : People who fly into tantrums upon the slightest provocation and set everybody's nerves on edge. suffer from habitual bad tember, foi which they need the hammering of discipline. It is a mistake to describe them as temperamental. Long courtships in which the wedding is postponea from year to year, until the parties can earn a comfortable. marriageable salary between them—often a vain hope--are not in : tie. best interests of morality. Nervous passengers who sit next to the driver and distract his attention w ith ceaseless questions. and grab his ell-Km at sharp beads in the road, are responsible for many motoring acci• dents. Thin-skinned, touchy people are apt to make a conflagration out of the most harmless joke. Deficient alike in w isdom and moderation. they turn ,•omedv into tragedy. Because a man is reticent under unfair aspersion, it does not follow that he is guilty Unquestioning obedience should be • e xacted from young children, who will rarely disobey fi,,rm commands. You weaken your authority by adding a reason or an e:;p1mation. Be prudent, even though your blood boils in your veins, and even though your self-control is misconstrued into cowardice. --PARENTAL LOVE. E x-Presi(lent McKinley always revered his mother. Even as head of the nation, he did not forget the love due her. Every day brought her a letter from -her William at Washingfon.Shortly after his inauguration, a large family dinner was given, and Mrs. McKinley, his mother, was present. No detail of the fine menu escaped her, hut she said nothing until dessert appeared. Then, impressed by the generous portions of cream served with the fruit, she remarked in her motherl) w av: ' William. you must keep a col." Some ot the younger guests could hardly repress a smile, but the President. with customary tact and graci ousness, answered: "Yes, mother, we can afford to have a cow. now, and as much cream as we w ant." JESUS, OUR EXAMPLE. Although .Jesus Christ suffered to atone for the sins of men. this was not the only motive of His Passion. One of the things He had in view was to give us an heroic example of all virtues, so that, considering them in Him. gathered together P s it were, in this mystery, we should more easily learn to practise them.--B1.

The usual fortnightly meeting of the above branch, held on 12th. inst., was fairly well attended, and was presided over by the President, Bro. R. N. Woncott. Sick pay amounting to £9 16s 8d was passed for payment. It is greatly regretted that the debate fixed for that night, against St. Teresa's Branch, Queen's Park, was forfeited by that Members are requested to branch. get in touch with the secretary in connction with the Annual General Commullion and Breakfast, on Sunday, October 29, in order that adequate transport arrangements may be made.

Dramatic Society; late in November, President's Charge Competition ('IA" and "B" Grades). New members are not being brought along as frequently as one could wish.

The secretary will be pleased to make available leaflets showing the advantages and bnefits of the Society. St. Joseph's Branch, Northam. The fortnightly meeting of the branch was held on October 12, 1933. Bro. Lynch, sent., presided over a good attendance of members. Recently the District Board offred to bring a concert party from Perth to entertain members at one of the meetings. It was unanimously decided to accept the Board's offer. Members have in mind the very excellent evening that they had on a prvious occasion, as a result of the efforts of the Board's concert party. Bro. Kirby gave notice that he would move at the next meeting that the meeting date be changd from Thursday to Sunday morning. It was dcided to extend an invitation to the I.O.R. Lodge to bisit us at our next meeting, and engage us in a cribbage competition. In the Friendly Societies' Cribbage Tournament. the Hibernians are still maintaining their forward position, and the members of the team are very jubilant over the success to date. On October 1. the N'ortham Friendly Societies' Council held its annual demonstration. The Hibernian Society, with the assistance of t he District Board members, made a very creditable showing. Twenty-six members marching. As a result of the District Board visit, and the very encouraging remarks made by members of the Boird, the branch officers and members have received a new lease of life. Social and Sports Committee. A t the meeting held on 13th. inst., delegates represented the following branches: St. Patrick's, West Perth, Leederville, Subiaco. Queen's Park. District Board, and Victoria Park. The confirmation of the minutes of the previous evening was moved by Bros. Hynes and Savage. The debates will be held during the next few days. The committee is very pleased with the keenness of this year's competitions, ten branches participating.

Peggy O'Neill's three pennies. trusts the Colonel and Peggy were not annoyed by blanks opposite themselves, but accidents will happen, and so will misprints, so it behoves the critics to be kind. Birthday Greetings to Chrissy Frayne Dear Chrissy,—Here we are, in spite of other great and important events. coming along to wish you many happy returns of next Thursday's date. We all hope you will benefit greatly from the advantage of having your birthday made known to the readers of "The Record" five days in advance. At any rate, there will be no excuse now for anyone at home forgetting you on the 26th, and if you don't have a gay and happy time all day long, write at once to King Kevin O'Doherty Waters, and he will hold an indignation meeting about it. It is nice to be growing up. and to be able to tell inquirers that one is eight and not seven, though, indeed, quite a number of my small nieces get rather perturbed sometimes when I add an extra year on, and I alsays thought ladies never !Iegan to take anything off their ages until they turned twenty. Be that as it may. don't You be in too great a hurry to be grown-up. as once you are grown-up you stay that way until you die, and you begin to go off lollies and cakes and everything. The Editor and Cardinal Protector and Tiddles all send their congratulations, and will be looking forward to an account of the party. so God bless and love you and keep you a good girl. as my mother use -1 t c•say to me a long, long time ago.

As her husband was slight y indisposed, a young and inexperienced wife attempted to take his temperature. In a state of great excitement she scribbled a note and sent it to the doctor: "Dear Doctor: Come at once. My husband's temperature is 136." The doctor replied: "Dear Madam: Your husband 'is beyond my skill. I am a physician, Send for a fire ennot a magician. gine." In the smoking room of a club two business men just past middle age were criticising the young men of today. Said one: "Look how reluctant young men are to marry and settle down." "That's so," replied the other; "they seem to fear a marriage. Why before I was married I didn't know the meaning of fear." T wo strangers had been paired in One was the golf club tournament. Colonel Thunder, red of face, wild of The other stroke, free of tongue. was a meek man, introduced as Dr. At the first bunker, Colonel Ps-well. Thunder took a long, silent look at his ball, then turned and exclaimed: "Pardon me, doctor, but before I tackle this lie, would you mind telling me if you're a D.D. or an M.D." "Anything the matter with the car?" "Well, there's only one part of it that doesn't make a noise, and that's the horn." I ' Your husband is sulking again. What's wrong this time?" "Oh, it's just because I used his silly old tennis racket to strain the potatoes." Enid: "Would you believe it, I asked John whether he would rather have me or a million dollars, and he said he d rather have the million dollars!" Edna: "Well. darling, he knew he'd be sure of getting you as well." • Housewife: - Why don't you go to work? Don't you know that a rolling stone gathers no moss?" Tramp: "Madam, not to evade your question at all, but merely to obtain information, may I ask of what practical utility is moss to a man in my ondition'?"
Two club members were having a heated argument in the club's lounge. Every moment their words became more personal. Finally one said: ' You've enough tin in your head to make a kettle." And You've got enough water in your head to fill it," was the reply. A t that a quiet member stood up "And both of you have enough gas to boil it!" he said, and vanished from the room. • "How did you get on?" The sweet young maiden breathed the words into her lover's manly ear as she met him He had been ':seeing in the hall. father," and she wanted to know the result. 'Oh, your father is heartless!" said the young man indignantly, told him I could not live without you and—" "Yes, yes," impatiently said Lit. "What did he say? ' "He merely offered ts. i ...,, may ton eral expenses" The match was about to start, and the captains were inspecting the ground "I don't like it," said the visiting captain. "Don't like what?" asked the home skipper. 'The ground," replied the other. "There's hardly a blade of grass to be seen." "Well, von didn't come here to graze, did you?" A Continental correspondent endeavours to describe the difference between clerks and managers as follows:— "A clerk is a man who knows a great deal about very little, and who goes on knowing more and more about less, until finally he knows everything al-nut practically nothing. "A manager is a man who knows very little about a great deal and who goes on knowing less and less about more and more until finally he knows nothing about practically everything." "How did you compile Your great a i tin dictionary?" o. ary?" the lexicographer was "Oh, it was something like having a quarrel with one's wife—one word led to another."
Smith and Jones were having an argument as to who should be the head of the household, the husband or the wife. "I am the head of the establishment." said Jones. "I am the breadwinner: why shouldn't I be the head?" "Well." replied Smith, "before my wife and I were married, n-e made an agreement that I should decide in all A New Yorker was examining an ap- the more important matters, and my plicant for a job of bookkeeper. wife in all the minor things" Of course you understand double "How has it worked?" queried Tones. entry.," he said.
