The Grail Movement in England Plans and Hopes for the New Year

1 1

The Grail ,s,t .enent is designed to kindle the ine 'ation of modern Catholic youth ee. to give it a practical, definite eeeil which is capable of realisation, if only they will work for it with all the: - might. It demands of them as a c. 'r of course such high qualities as co-. ee, initiative, and endurance, and it teaches them to develop their sspecities to the highest degree, the .tre expected as Grail members to ssl, elinate their actions to the cause -ode'', they serve, the conversion of world foe Christ. This ideal is eepable of realisaholt if each en.' elHr will helieve wholeheartedly th,i• 'an be so. The text on the wa:1 'le Grail chapel at Sloane.

The Grail is not to leave England. It was stated by a bogus communication to the Catholic Press in England, that the Pope had declared that the Grail must not stay in England. The communication was proved to be a lie. On the contrary, the authorities of the Grail have f urnished the "Catholic Times" with their programme for the New Year. A more intensive campaign of Catho lie Action is outlined.

THE CHURCH IN IRELAND A LAND OF APOSTLES

The Grail has its special Departments which are at the head ef the main branches of the movement. These are in their inf. ncy in England at present. Next year they will be enlarged and organised in more detail.

Catholic News from Everywhere The only Catholic mission in territory under the authority of the Dalai Lama, the spiritual-political head of Tibet, is at Yerkalo, in the region known as the Tibetan Marches, on the Chinese frontier. a station in the area lately conquered from local Chinese troops by those of the Dalai Lama. The priest in charge, Pere Nussbaum, of the Paris Foreign Missions, was informed recently of the mission's status by a group of Tibetan officers who passed through the town. It cannot own property. must remain subject to the common law of Lhassa, and must not conduct religious propaganda elsewhere in Tibet without* the permission of the Dalai Lama. Such permission, it is quite evident, will not be granted. The Government refuses to accept any responsibility for the mission's welfare, and promises no protection in case of trouble. It is believed that this region may soon he returned to China, since there is a delegation from China at Lhassa, Tibet's capital, to negotiate for an exchange of the district of Vent sin, in which the mission is located, for the territory of Niarong.—Fides Climbing up and down the mountains of Tanganyike Territory to assist the evidently Bishop missionaries is Bishop Munsch's idea of a rest Munsch of the Holy Ghost Fathers, retired ten years ago as Vicar Apostolic Recently he was of Kilima Njaro. called to assist in the confirmations and after havine confirmed 543 new Christians at Matombo, he travelled by foot over the Uluguru mountains t, confirm at Mgcta The path which he had to. take over the mountains reaches an altitude of 5.248 feet. and the journey requires nine hours when done by a strong young man.

stead of a quiet sittiog rthim they have to put up with the common room, with its sparse furniture, itaisy ehildren, gossiping neighbours, etc., and instead of a well-stocked library, they will find the senaational weeklies, film news, and sister's latest novels. There is no hope for it but to while away part of the time with these. Tired of such, the young man seeks a change-- but no wireless, no music, no innocent games: so he decided to seek pleasure elsewhere, viz., tke billiard saloon, hotel picture show, etc. Aad here is the undoing of that splendiI education that he received at the Cath(lic college. Impoverished intellectuelly, and with no anchor to the home left, he seeks his enjoyments in questionable surrcundings, and soon his moral fibre gives way, an he goes to swell the ranks of those who fersake their religion and who are robbed of the benefits of a good catholis edecation

PERTH, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1934.

The Spirit of Lent "Behold, now is the acceptable time, now is the day of sahiation." These words of St. Paul, found in the Epistle of the Mass of the First Sunday in Lent, may well be applied to the Lenten Season. This season is indeed "an acceptable time," given us by God to dc penance for our sins; it is "the day of salvation." in which season of we may care for the eternal welfare of our souls.

The fact that in Rome, St. John Lateran, the Mother Church of Christen• dom, is chosen for the liturgical ceremonies of this Sunday, shows its Unportance. St. Paul, :n the Epistle of the Mass, describes our obligations during this holy season. "Behold now is the acceptable time, now is the time of salvation." The Gospel relates the incident of Our Divine Lord's fast in the desert ,as the example of our Lenten fast, and it also relates His tempta This tions afterwards bY the devil. is to teach us the necessity of penance in order that we may vanquish temptations when they arise. Also that temptations are not sinful—but actually a source of great merit to those who re. sist them. The first temptation took occasion of Christ's hunger, and His answer shows that we would avoid many sins and anxieties by not worrying unduly even about our bodily Even unneeds. God will pro,:ide employment is not the gravest evil in the world. Lace poverty it may become the source of great merit. In the second temptation the devil by tempting Our Lord to come down from the pinnacle of the temple in a miraculous way, shows us that we should not tempt God by asking for miracles in confirmation of our religion. as faith is sufficient for us. We tempt God also when we expect him to preserve us from sin while we place ourselves unnecessarily in the proximate occasions of sin. In the third temptation. the devil, by promising (led all the ternporal possessions of t:,e earth, if only He would yield to his wishes, shows us that we must renounce all temporal ad'vantages which would he gained by failing in our duty to God or our religion. It is only by nraver and penance. the Gospel tells us that we can hope to conquer temptations

Inany friends of rr. and Mrs. Moran, of Coolgardie, when it became knewn that their only daughter, Nc.ra pa.7sed away on January 12, at the Hospital of St. John of (;-)fl, Kalgaerlie. deceased young lady, who was only 28 years of age, belonged to a most respected Catholic family, who have been in Coolgardie since the boom days, and still carry on business there. Her death will be keenly felt not only by her fond parents, but by her many friends on the Goldfields. In Church circles the Moran family were every ready to lend a helping hand, and many unostentatious acts of kindness were due to their generosity. The priests who ministered in Coolgardie had particular reason to be grateful for their gaod example and their interest in the Church. and the deepest sympathy goes out to the bereaved parents in their grievous loss . The late Miss Moran was educated at St Anthony's Convent, Coolgardie, and later at Presentation Convent, Iona, and many sincere massages of regret were received from her former teachAfter leaving ers and class-mates. school, she remained at home with her parents, eventually taking a keen interest in the business, where she became well known as a aapable and enIt was in this ergetic young lad . capacity that her kinally interests was evinced in the many old people in their distant camps. Through her thoughtfulness the priests and Sisters were frequently enabled to visit them, as her car and her time we.-c always at their disposal. Because of her energetic life. her death came as a shock to those who knew her. For a short time before her death, she had been engaged at her usual work, and had been to Perth as late as the time of the "oadjutor Archbishop's Consecration. A week before her death she developed a severe chill, and in the complications which set in. heart trouble also intervened, and she died a few days after being admitted to the hospital. But not before she was fully prepared fer death by the good Sisters and priests in whose presence she passed peacefully away, fortified by all the rites of Hole Church. Requiem Mass was eelebrated for the repose of her soul at St. Mary's Church, Kalgoorlie. and the numbers who attended the Mass and the funeral testified to the .leep esteem in which the deceased Young lady was held. To her son-owing parents. "The Record" tenders its ;.-incere sympathy.

ganisation—but, leaving that aside, we have, as well, the printing press at our disposal, since, only in the beginning are our pupils illiterate. Silent reading to, supplement oar teaching opens up wide possibilities. In Bible History, acquaintance with the Old Testament might be formed in this way. The Old Testament. The objection to th's is obvious. To have the children simply read Old Testament stories, instead of our teaching them, is to relegate the .0Id Testament to a very secondary place. Frankly. that is what we would do with it, as we have implied all through, and for this reason: that, in the lower school at least .its value is cultural and not practical. We feel the children ought to know these stories, and so we teach them. There are notable exceptions, of course; the Creation, the Fall of Man. Abraham and Isaac, as well as all the other types, prophecies and figures which point to the Mass, Moses and the Ten Commandments, and perhaps some others These should be taught and taught thoroughly. Other stories the children will read eagerly, if we put book into their hands. The guiding principle suggested is that the Old Testament should be emphasised only in so far as its connection with the New can be grasped by the particular grade we are instructing. And, again invoking the principle of adaptation, we would add that for the same story, the emphasis will vary according to the age of the children. The Temptation of Eve and the Fall will bring out for young children the meaning of sin and the craft of the devil: for tholder girls, it can be used to drive home some appreciation of the fact that evil is in the world because of Original Sin, because "the human race is implicated in .come terrible aboriginal calamity," and from that point theit thoughts may be led on to the Re demption This changing inded, is observable in all our teaching of Re— gion. As a pupil moves up the schook, she learns not new things so much as new relations, new points of view. By degrees religious truths, formerly thought of separately, begin to hang together so as to form e,ne system. Our appeal, first made to the imagination only, is now made to the intellect as w ell. At this stage, our teaching of Bible History can be, as it were. clinched. This is where we can ;abour with hope of success to instil into the girls some appreciation of the Old and New Testament considered together as the Deposit of Faith—"a revelation continuous and systematic, with distinct representatives and an orderly succession." Now they can be made to feel the unique fascination of the history of the Jews, a tiny peonle, a Theocracy, held together by their belief in the true God and by His marvellous providence over them .ever looking forward to the coming of the Messiah: "One man, born of the chosen tribe, was the destined minister of blessing to the whole world: and the race, as repreesnted by that tribe, was to lose its old self in gaining a new self in Him. Its destiny was sealed upon it in its beginning, an expectation was the measure of its life. it was created for a great

end, and in that end, it had its ending." (Newman, "Grammar of Assent,' p. 443) . How large the figure of the Redeemer stands out sgainst this background of expectation. How I3eth1ehem and Nazareth and Calvary take on a new complexion! And, then, the terrible curse upon the Jews, when "He came unto His own and His own received Him not." 'The last age of their history is as s trange as their first. When that time of. destined blessing. came. which they had so accurat.:ly marked out, and were so carefully waiting for—a time which found them, in fact, rnTre zealous for their law, and or the dogma it enshrined, than they ever had been before—then, instead of any final favour coming on them from above, they fell under the power of their enemies, and were overthrown, their holy city razed to the ground, their polity destroyed, and the remnant of their people cast off to wander far and away through every land except their own, as we find them at this day; lasting on century after century, not absorbed in other populations, not annihilated, as likely to last on, as unlikely to be re -:torecl. as far as outward appearances go. now as a thousand years ago. What nation has so grand, so romantic, so terrible a history? Does it not fulfil the idea of, what the oation calls itself. a chosen people, chosen for good and evil?" ("Grammar of Assent." p. 4331. We have come to the point where Bible History links with Church History, and here we shall conclude. Conclusion. To sum up, then: The thesis maintained is that to teach Bible History fruitfully, we should endeavour to permeate our teaching, as far as may be. with the whole of Catholicism. which is summarised in an appreciation of the person of Christ. We should draw into our lessons all aspects of practical Religion—Sacrifice, Sacraments. the Real Presence, the Liturgy: prayer, fasting and al-nsdeeds: charity. mercy and reverence, fostering a deep faith in the divine origin of the Church and a large 'confidence in the providence of God over us individual Catholics. And, if we do our part conscientiously. we can feel sure that God will -bless our efforts. We can hope that the regenerated souls of our little ones, who come to us from the baptismal font "trailing clouds of glory" will not have been purchased in vain; that their little hearts, tho, gh growing dad more responsive to the thousand and one influences borne in upon them from this kaleidoscopic world, will yet beat ever more strongly in unison with the great heart of the Church. and that their expanding minds will gradually gain deeper insight into the truths of our common Faith.

Our Lord's Public Life It may sound strange, but there is no part of Our Lord's Life so little appreciated as what is known as His Public Life. Many study and contemplate His Infancy and His Death. But few fully understand the value of His Public Life, nor do they learn enough from His example left for all time. In His Public Life, we hear much about His meekness, His patience, His prayers, and His miracles. But we hear very little of His beautiful and keen intellect, that could baxle all the designs of the Pharisees. nor of His fortitude in condemning injustice and in defending the weak.

THE RECORD.

He was the secretary of Our Lord. and treasurer of the Apostolic College, and probably was the best educated among the Apostles. Jesus and Judas s',ut Judas was a were once friends. weak character, and was easily swayed by his own weak nature, and by the smooth and false w .rds of others. Judas fell away from Jesus, but the kind and loving Heart of the Saviour could never forget the friendship that existed between Himself and the fallen At the very end, Our Lord apostle. made a final and desperate attempt to save Judas. but the fallen apostle refused the offer. This was a sad blow to the loving Heart of Jesus, and added much to His Agony. On the Cross, the dying Saviour forgave the people who were mocking at His Sufferings, because they did it in ignorance. But the great lesson to he learned from the Public Life of Jesus is the He was beauty of His Personality. meek and gentle. But when the glory of His Father's House was being violated by those who made it a house of traffic. He drove the buyers an sellers from it like cattle, and overturned the tables of the money changers. When all is said, it must be confessed, that, although Jesus was God. He was also a Man.

IV.—EFFECTS OF THE PRVENT FINANCIAL SYSTEM.

The three foregoing articles, dealing with, firstly, an analysis of the Economic Structure, and disclosing the breakdown in the Distributive System; secondly, the true purpose and requirements of a Monetary System; and, thirdly, the method of operation of our existing privately owned and controlled financial system, will have served to show how pressing is the need for a change in the present arNot only has the finanrangement. cial system as administrated to-day, failed utterly to effect satisfactory distribution of the goods and services produced, but, in addition, there are other e xtremely serious a9:iects to be considered. Perhaps there is no source of opinion. from which the views expressed are first weighed with so great care, and where such far-reaching enquiries are made, and the pros and cons of any subject are given so much serious deliberation, before an official pronouncement is forthcoming, as from_the Vatican. From the Chair of Peter, statements are made to the Church in particular, and to the world in general, and the truth of these statements when the Holy Father speaks "ex cathedra," must be absolutely incontrovertible. Hence the need for infinite caution beforehand. This being so, the words of the present Pope. His Holin,-,ss Pius XI., uttered on May 15, 1931, on the subject of "The change in economic conditions," are of tremendous importance, and undoubtedly, are an accorate reflection of certain matters afflicting the world toHe says: "In the first place, day. then, it is patent that in our days not alone is wealth accumulated but immense power and economic domination is concentrated in the hands of a few and that those few are frequently not the owners, but only the trustees and directors of invested funds, who administer them at their good pleasure. This power becomes particularly irresistible when exercised by those who, because they hold and control money, are able to govern credit and determine its allotment, for that reason supplying, so to speak, the life-blood to the entire economic body, and grasping, as it were, in their hands the very soul of production. so that no one dare breathe against their will."
