U.S. Congress Listens to Priest's Views on Money The Coinage Committee of the U.S. 'House of Representatives listened, for more than two hours on.the 16th. of January as a Catholic priest gave out his views on the monetary situation. The priest was the Rev. Charles E. Coughlin, pastor of the Shrine of the Little Flower at Royal Oak, Mich., and a widely known radio speaker. His name, appearing with those of a number of internationally famous bankers summoned as witnesses, attracted unusual interest, and the caucus room of the House Office Building was filled when he testified. Highlights of Father Coughlin's testimony were these: Unless Congress follows through with 'President Roosevelt's policy, as outlined in his message to Congress this week, Father Coughlin predicted "a revolution which will make the French Revolution look silly." Three "follows through" are neces.
sary: the insurance of more currency on a broader metallic base made possible by the revaluation of gold; the placement of this additional money in the hands of the people, and the rehabilitation of silver. There are two reasons for raising the value of silver: First, to broaden the monetary base, and second, to help the Orient regain its purchasing power., Father Coughlin said that, because gold is elastic, he is not yet thoroughly convinced of the necessity of using silver to broaden the metallic base for our currency. He is interested in raisieg the price of silver, he said, to build up the purchasing of 800,000,000 people who are on the silver standard. Father Coughlin told the committee that he did not appear as an expert in t1..!ings monetary, but that he felt he knew something about money in relation to human affairs. He then traced the use of gold and silver in history,

" We think we had prospe...ity in the past, but we're going ts have a better prosperity than we've ever dreamed of," Father Coughlin said, in con& sion. "We're on our way .and we're not going to turn back." Eariler in the day, Frank A.

MACHINE WITH NOTHING TO DO
Outspoken criticism of Presbyterianism, or the 'Established Church of Scotland, was made by Father P. McPhillips, when he addressed a thronged rally of the Catholic Truth Society in the City Hall, Glasgow, recently. The audience listened with rapt attention, except for numerous bursts of applause to Father Owen F. Dudley, who was the first speaker, as he told of his conversion to the Church.

The Failure of Presbyterianism
The Three Minutes' Lessons (By a Musafir in Patna.) Man's nothingness has been once more proved. At 14 hours on the 15th. of this month, we did not know how small we were. In the twinkling of an eye, all that we boast of crumbled to pieces. In three minutes perished thousands and thousands. In three minutes tumbled down man-made palaces of princes with' the minest dwellings of the poor. High and low were levelled down. As the cataclysm came, we closed our eyes, and the name ot Him who seemed to have been forgotten was on our lips. When we opened our eyes, we found that a mere breath had taken away all. All that we were clinging to as "our own," had vanished like a dream. All our objects of love and affection were sundered and swept away. We bargained for even a pice three minutes before.. After those fateful minutes, we found that we had lost in lacs and crores. Pride. vanity, greed. man's arrogance and sense of omnipotence, all received the rudest shock, and He _asserted Himself through Nature, His handmaid. Tomorrow, perchance the day after, we shall forget the past; we shall unlearn the lessons and then, another awakening?

The Constitution, he said, gave Congress the power to coin and regulate money, and that the word 'regulate" has been interpreted in this The welds country to mean 'fix." "fix" and "regulate" are antithetical and the latter word was the one in the mind of the framers of the Constitution, Father Coughlin said.

remain for another hundred years an open question in a Church which still asserts herself to be the Guardian of the Faith."
Literature in the Classroom (By a Teacher.) A discriminating taste for books creates and develops fine enthusiasms and lofty idealism, which, left to themselves, may end, indeed, in ashes and dry 1,ones, but, transplanted by our Catholic faith, become transfigured with imperishable beauty in the glorious airs of the supernatural life. The habit of reading good literature is worth acquiring, for the things it brings us as for the things it saves us from. The genius and the saint can c ultivate depth and sanctity in thought and character without it; but for the ordinary person it is the natural means of deepening character, acquiring and maintaining intellectual poise, and disposing the will to effort without making it harsh and ruthless.
One thing stands out clearly in Mr. Birrell's lengthy article. He realised the importance of the Mass and longed to see it celebrated again through. out England. In passing, he had a. graceful word of sympathy for English Catholics who have to submit to the loss of their beautiful cathedrals— cathedrals which were built by Catholic hands as shrines for the Mass: "There is much that is touching and forlorn in the spectacle of an English Roman Catholic no longer able to adore his risen Lord in any of those stately Mother churches built by the How is the teacher, then, to employ piety, and still instinct with the genius of his ancestors, or to hear within their all the means at his disposal to open walls the tinkle of that b01. a sound up to his pupils the high road to this carrying with it a richer freight of re- golden city First of all, the teacher must be posligious association than any other sound or incident of Christian wor- sessed of the true literary taste.

"the devil, as a raring goeth about seeking whsm he might devour." Again, the account of the unclean spirit, in the eleventh chapter of St. Luke's Gospel, is impressively fearful, It is the account of the evil spirit who is gone out of a man once a sinner. but now in the state of grace. The devil returns the attack, and on finding the houge, i.e.. the heart of the sinner, swept and garnished by sanctifying grace, "he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself to enter therein." From all this we may understand that there is a diabolical temptation,
and that the devil's power is great; his courage undaunted, his hatred unmeasured, and his warfare against man has no truce. In spite of my belief in the Bible, nothing has affected me So much on this matter as the lives of the Saints, i.e., their teaching and personal experience. St. Teresa of Avila assures us of this: "These cursed spirits torment me quite frequently; but they do not frighten me in the least, for I am convinced that they cannot stir except by God's leave. Let this much be nown, that e very time we turn them down with contempt they lose ascendancy. They have no power except against cowardly souls. Against such they do show their power." Perhaps no other Saint affords a more frightful example of diabolical persecution than the holy Cure of Ars, St. John Baptist Vianney. The devil night for persecuted him day and thirty years or. more, under every shape and form. Sometimes he came under the shape of a rat; others under that of a nightingale, while others he had at his disposal gusts of wind, crowbars. and every sort of musical instrument. At night time the devil startled him with three mighty blows on the door of the yard, and of his bedroom. Once he lifted up his bed and burnt up The - main reason blankets and all. of his persecution was jealousy of the good the holy Cure was working upon the souls of sinners. There are many who, because they do not feel the assaults of the evil spirit against them, imagine that the whole matte% is fictitious. "These persons," says the Catechism of the Council of Trent. "it is not surprising that they are not attacked by the evil spirit. for they have voluntarily surrendered They possess themselves to him. neither piety nor charity, nor any other virtue worthy of a Christian. They are in the power of the devil, and there is not need of any diabolical temptation to overcome them." It is those good living Catholics, and those who have dedicated themselves to God, that are the chief object of the assaults of Satan. He envies them, and is jealous of the good they do, as well Against these as of their salvation. he harbours bitterest hatred and lays most dangerous snares. There But let us not be terrified. are limits set to the devil's power by "God is faithful who God Himself. will not stiffer you to be tempted above that which you are able." (I. Cor., x., Again, the devil cannot take 13.) He can tempt, away our freedom. but he cannot make us consent. On the contrary, the evil of his solicitation can be turned into virtue by our free repudiation. The mystics give us some remedies against diabolical temptation. First of all, it is well to know the devil's Satan cannot act directly strategy. on man's higher faculties, the intellect and the will. He can act directly on the body and our exterior senses, and through these acts indirectly on the But, as will to obtain its consent. above said, the will remains ever free The good to give or refuse consent.

allows these attacks because God governs men, not only directly by Himself, but also indirectly through the agency of secondary causes. But, at the same time, God, through the Holy Scriptures, Warns us to be on our guard. The secondary causes in God's divine plan stands as a means of test and reward, like fighting is the means of military honours to soldiers. Finally, one must bear in mind the This envy the devil bears mankind. would be enough to keep ourselves away from any evil suggestion. Moreover, one must not forget that when a temptation is sudden and violent, the devil is responsible for it. In this case prayer and confidence in God would be the best remedy.

Lenten Regulations for 1934 SUMMARY OF THE REGULATIONS FOR FAST AND ABSTINENCE, 1.—On FAST days, those bound to fast are allowed one full meal, at or after midday. In addition, they are allowed two light meals, one of about eight ounces, at which butter, cheese, eggs, or fish may be taken in small quantity; the other of two or three ounces, at which a little butter may be taken. 2.—On ABSTINENCE days flesh meat and meat soup are forbidden to those who are bound to abstain. 3.—Lard and dripping may be used on days of fast and abstinence, provided they be used merely as a condiment or seasoning. 4.—All Fridays are days of Abstinence. 5.—Wednesdays and Fridays in Lent and in Ember Week, and the vigils of Christmas, Pentecost, Assumption, and All Saints' are days of fast AND abstinence. 6.—Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays in Lent, and the Saturdays in Ember weeks, are days of fast WITHOUT abstinence. 7.—There is no fast or abstinence on Sundays or Holidays of °bliption. 8.—St. Patrick's Day is exempted from fast; also from abstinence, unless it falls on Friday or on the Wednesday of Ember Week. 9.—When two days of abstinence follow one another immediately, the second is freed from abstinence. 10.—Those who have completed their twenty-first year are bound by the law of fasting: they cease to be bound to it when they have begun their sixtieth year. 11.—Those who are in delicate health, or who are engaged in exhausting work, are not bound to fast. Of course, those who are seriously ill are not bound by either fast or abstinence. 12.—Those who are not bound to last are allowed to take meat as often as they wish on a fast day, whenever meat is allowed at the principal meal to those who are fasting. 13.—Confessors, even outside the Confessional, can for a sufficient reason, dispense in individual cases in the law of fast and abstinence. The Paschal Precept. Owing to the special circumstances of Australasia, the time for complying with the Paschal Precept of Communion extends from Ash Wednes day to the Octave of the Feast of SS. Peter and Paul. Celebration of Marriage. According to the present discipline of the Church, Marriage may be celebrated at any time. The solemn celebration of Marriage with Nuptial Mass is, however, forbidden during Advent or Lent, i.e., from the first Sunday of Advent to Christmas Day s both inclusive, and from Ash Wednesdav to Easter Sunday, both inclusive. Collections for the Holy Places in Palestine and for the Aboriginal Minion. I wish to remind the clergy that the annual collection for the above named funds should be taken up on Good Friday, either at the Adoration of the Cross. or whatever other sacred function will be given to the faithful on the previous Sunday, and the offerings from each parish will be forwarded to the Administrator, as soon as possible afterwards. Wherever the Stations of the Cross are erected, the Stations should be publicly perfcrmed three times each week during Lent. The indulgences are manifold, which indulgences may be gained also privately and at an time. * PATRICK J. CI,CNE, Archbishop or Perth

SOCIETY cricket match with the same branch was held on Sunday, February 25, at Clontarf. Quite a number of members and friends attended, despite the 108 degrees of heat, all of whom spoke in glowing terms of the success of the day's outing and of the reception given them by the Brothers and boys of the Orphanage, who were untiring in their efforts to please. The match resulted in a win for St. Joachim's, no body line bowling being used; the score being considered of minor importance to the benefits accruing to the Society, which became manifest at the meeting on the following night, when three new members were initiated—J. Barron, O'Leary, and J. Finnegan—and the promise of a few more were obtained, and who will be valuable acquisitions to the branch. After the meeting a question night was held, which provided some amusing and interesting entertainment. Many and varied were the questions asked, ranging from the humorous to the seri. ous. Bro. Quinlivan was voted as givietg the best entertainment by his answer to the question 'Who killed Cock Robin?" St. Patrick's Branch, Perth. The usual fortnightly meeting of the above branch was held in Cathedral Bro. Hall on Thursday, March 1st. R. N Woollcott occupied the chair.

Trayning Convent To the Editor. Sir,---This letter is to correct a mistake that occurred in the course of an article on the Trayning Convent. in last week's issue of "The Record." It was said in the article that 'the lounda• tion stone of the present St. Jose ph's Church was laid by the Hon. T. Walker, then the Speaker of the Legislative In the abA ssembly of the State.sence of the Lord Abbot of New Norcia in Europe, the foundation stone of the Trayning Church was laid by the Rev.

Goldfields Men's Annual Communion Breakfast The round of Catholic functions ior 1934 was initiated on Sunday last, when the Men's Annual Communion and Breakfast took place in St. Mary's, The capacious church K algoorlie. was more than half filled by men, and It was an inspiring sight to see so ipen, representative of a wide territory, approach Communion and receive their Lord and Master from a priest who was educated in their midst. Very .Rey. Dr. Sullivan, Adm., celebrated Mass, and in a few words congratulated all on their demonstration of faith, which was well calculated to give a fine example to all. After Mass an adjournment was made to the Hall, where a very fine breakfast was served by Mrs. T. Sullivan. The inner man having been well satisfied. the company fell to talking. For fifteen years the II.A.C.B.S. have organised this function without assistance. This year, however, one noted on the breakfast tickets the bracketed names of S. J. Hill and T. Ardagh, so the C.Y.M.S. were represented in the. organisation. proof that these societies are beginning to take their places in active Church work. The intermingling oi old and young made for that mixtere of mellowness and enthusiasm that characterised the 1934 Breakfast, and made it a very happy gathering. Mr. D. B. Sullivan proposed the silent toast of the "Pope and the King," and then explained that the societies had decided that Mr. A. Boylen, a member of the H.A.C.B.S.. president of the K.C.Y.M.S., should be chairman and it gave him pleasure to ask Mr. Boylen to take over the chairmanship The Chairman then called on Dr. Hogan to propose the toast "AustraDr. Hogan spoke of the ideals lia." of Catholicism, and of the necessity to infuse those ideals into our national life. To do this was our responsibility, and when this was accomplished, Australia In all could look for better times matters the Catholics must zealously guard his high standards and his conclaret must he beyond reproach. Mr. Tom Arda.gh thanked Dr. Hogan for the toast, and made reference to the necessity for Catholic men to be to the fore in all movements. The toast of the "Hierarchy, Clergy and Religious Orders" was committed to Mr. R. Boylen, who traced the history of the spread of Catholicism from the earliest times to the present day, and showed that the difficulties that the early pioneers encountered were with us to-day, and that the zeal and courage of the early martyrs had been transmitted through the ages, so that even to-day we read of priests and religious being martyred for Catholicism. He hoped all would remember at all times to help by generosity service, and prayer the venerable Archbishop C lune. his Coadjutor, Dr. Prendiyille, and the good priests and religious who labour in our midst for the maintainence and furtherance of the' one true faith. Very Rev. Dr. Sullivan, Adm.. thank (_ ,1 the speaker for his kindly references and those present for their enthusiastic reception of it. It was natural that at a a.tholic function of this kind this tcast should be honoured.

Father Father Ryan ,in an eloquent Ryan. address, outlined the aims and objects ef these societies, and referred to their possibilities as an .urge to good and as The .4orry plight of self-discipline. the world to-day evinced the necessity for a thinking community and guidance was necessary even in thinking.

Father Ryan, in a final appeal. a.sked the older men ta interest themselves in the young in their ideals, and in their ambition bring to youthful enthusiasm the riper understanding of experience. Mr. W. Ellery responded on behalf of P.C.Y.M.S. His faith in the Bonlcier Society was such that he thought it y.culd be the finest and best society or. the fields, but it would not realise its greatest 'possibilities without further attention to the literary and debating sections wherein would be studie.1 the political, commercial and industrial problems that confront the world. The social bias had received well merited attention, and much success had been achieved., He now hoped that debatint., would receive greater • attention. Mr. W. English replied on behalf of the K.C.Y.M.S. Mr. English showe I from the world movements of recen1 years that this was the age of youth and that made our societies of even greater importance, in that therein the youths would be led to a proper und(rstanding of the world's problems and of the Church's attitude to them The Governments of the past hal been responsible for the chaotic situation of the world to-day: it was the duty of the young men to analyse tho•ze problems, to bring critical minds to hear on them, and to arljtwt them :o the right way. He apPealed to at; to join, and hoped that a frierAv inter chancre of ideas would be of inotoal benefit. Bro. S. J. Hill proposed the tra,:t ot "The Trish Race," and showed by numerous examples of men in the public life of Australia, past and present. that the son's of Ireland had done much for Australia. The speaker &mit with disabilities of Ireland and quoted at length from the speech cf I ord Prcugham to substantiate his argument. Mr. j Sheehan. T.P., responded to the toast. and said that having heard so much that morning from the voun men about Australia, it was refreshinz to hear somethine about Ireland. He thought that, if the young. _Australians of to-day did as much for their coon try as the Irishmen of yesterday had done, they would accomplish much. Rev. Brother Walsh, Superior of c R,C., proposed the toast of "Cath.4;f. Education " In the first instance hr referred to the excellent results of the C ollege. -md that. at State examinations, where no allowance was made for the disabilities under which Catho7ic s chools laboured. In the second plane. Rev. Brother Walsh referred to the oicrleerinrr work of the Sisters of St. John of God and of the Sisters n St Tosenh. and then of the elvent and of the Sisters o'r Mercy. and ,,o,e they all foetid themeelves working in onison for the C111CP of Catholic education on the tielrls. The rev. speaker, continuing, -eferred to the iniquity of Catholics haying to nay enkeen their own schools And of being. forced to contribute to the upkeep of • 1-,e StAte institetions. Peforts must be made to redress this inionitous posi-
tion, and the real power of the Catholic lay in the ballot box, where he could show the powers that be the futility of empty platitudes, the only thing Catholics ever got in W.A. from politicians. Rev. Brother Walsh then outlined the schemes of scholarships in operation in Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland, and showed that in that way Catholic schools did get some revenue from the State, little as it may be. In Kalgoorlie district, the Catholics, by maintaining their own schools, effected a saving to the Government of £20,000—a proportion of that would do much to help the schools However, in spite of difficulties, and with the support of Catholics. our schools would be carried on until they received due recognition, would continue in the face of difficulties to produce results that would compare with any. Mr. A. Boylen responded to the toast, and compared the glories of that Golden Age (1150-1350). which followed on centuries of Catholic education with the chaotic state of affairs of to-day, which is the direct result of the banishing of religion, and of the institution of individual judgment in lieu of properly constituted authority.
of their work, and the H.A.C.B.S. and C.Y.M.S. for their organisation, spe. cial reference was made to the Work of Mr. S. J. Hill, who has done so much for this Catholic function. A vote of thanks to all was carried by acelatna.

During Lent, however, there are naturally no entertainments held in aid of the parochial debt, but immediately atter Lent the various committees will resume activities. Last year's efforts succeeded :n. :educing the principal by oaly a cornParatively small amount, and it is hoped that this year's activities will considerably improve the position, and thus relieve our parish priest, Rev.

Miss Fuhrmann lived in Collie almost all her life, and received her education at the local Presentation Convent. Always an ardent worker for the Catholic Church, she held an official position in the Children of Mary Sodality since its inception, and last year acted in the capacity of vice-president. Particularly noticeable was her work among the younger children. to whom she was a friend at all times, and by whom she was dearly loved. She was always relied upon in the organisation of functions for the church. and for many Years was an untiring worker for Her the children' fancy dress halls. sweet and sympatbetic nature won for her the affection of young and old. and her passing will leave a void in many lives that time will never fill. An impressive service was held at St Brigid's Catholic Church before the funeral. when the Rev. Father Briody spoke with great feeling of her man" virtues, especially stressing her marvellous sympathy to those in need. and her willingness to assist any who might call on her for help. The remains were interred in the Catholic portion of the Collie Cemetery. all denominations being well represented in the large crowd who came to pay their last tribute to one so loved. many coming long distances. The Rev. Father Briody conducted the service. The many beautiful floral tributes paid full testimony to the universal esteem held in which Miss Fuhrmann was The Children of Mary. dressed in full regalia, preceded the cortege as far as the town boundary, and sang several beautiful hymns most touchingly during the service at the graveside.

I say the work of the ordinary masseur cannot be compared with these health-giving hands which seem so capable of transfusing some invisible spark to the organs of the sick, which, taken up. appear to galvanise dormant parts into that condition of activity which render them equal to the task of naturally expelling the accumulations of toxic agents, which have been responsible for the incapacitated condition of the patient. I can testify to the effectiveness of the humane treatment, both in the infant and the aged. Mr. Teague. Globe Hotel, Kensington, was partially laid tip for over LI years. and latterly bedridden for the past three Years. He is ,now a live member of society, attending to his business in a manner which surprises himself. A number of my close acquaintances are changed men. Each has been the means of introducing their respective friends, some of whom consented very much against their will and belief, partly because of being incredulous, and also because of their disabilities being of so long standing as to discourage them from any hope of relief. This goes to show that success does not depend upon any "faith healing" doctrine, hut is even achieved when the patient is well nigh antagonistic in his attitude. Virtue, we are told, is its own reward. I think it was Abraham Linooln who said "You may fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time: hut you cannot fool all the people all the time." The best advertisement for the gifted gentlemen I writ of is the fact that the duration of the originally projected season .has been extended and reextended. I am truly convinced that certain - members who now cease to be in our midst would have had a big chance of renewed health had they been the recipients of such remarkable treatment as is now available I write these lines in the hope that at least some sufferers will be enabler! te obtain a fresh lease of hope, energy, and general bodily welfare

priest who was educateo in tneir miaso Very .Rev. Dr. Sullivan, Adm., celebrated Mass, and in a few words congratulated all on their demonstration of faith, which was well calculated to give a fine example to all. After Mass an adjournment was made to the Hall, where a very fine breakfast was served by Mrs. T. Sullivan. The inner man having been well satisfied. the company fell to talking.
For fifteen years the II.A.C.B.S. have organised this function without assistance. This year, however, one noted on the breakfast tickets the bracketed names of S. J. Hill and T. Arclagh, so the C.Y.M.S. were represented in th?. organisation, proof that these societies are beginning to take their places in active Church work. The intermingling of old and young made for that mixtvre of mellowness and enthusiasm that characterised the 1934 Breakfast, and made it a very happy gathering. Mr. D. B. Sullivan proposed the silent toast of the "Pope and the King," and then explained that the societies had decided that Mr. A. Boylen, a member of the H.A.C.B.S.. president of the K.C.Y.M.S., should be chairman and it gave him pleasure to ask Mr. Boylen to take over the chairmanship The Chairman then called on Dr. Hogan to propose the toast 'Austras Dr. Hogan spoke of the ideals lia." of Catholicism, and of the necessity to infuse those ideals into our national life. To do this was our responsibility, and when this was accomplished. Australia In all could look for better times matters the Catholics must zealously guard his high standards and his conduet must be beyond reproach. Mr. Tom Ardagh thanked Dr. Hogan for the toast, and made reference to the necessity for Catholic men to be to the fore in all movements. The toast of the "Hierarchy. Clergy and Religious Orders" was committed to Mr. R. Boylen, who traced the history of the spread of Catholicism from the earliest times to the present day, and showed that the difficulties that the early pioneers encountered were with us to-day, and that the zeal and ccniratre of the early martyrs had been transmitted through the ages, so that even to-day we read of priests and religious being martyred for Catholicism. He hoped all would remember at all times to help by generosity service, and prayer the venerable Archbishop Clone. his Coadjutor, Dr. Prendiville. and the good priests and religious who labour in our midst for the maintainence and furtherance of the' one true faith. Very Rev. Dr. Sullivan, Adm., thanked the speaker for his kindly references and those present for their enthusiastic reception of it. It was natural that at ( iunction of this kind this tr

The toast of "The Catholic Young Men's Societies" was proposed by the 11aplain of the Societies, Rev. Father Father Ryan ,in an eloquent Ryan. address, outlined the aims and objects of. these societies, and referred to their possibilities as an urge to good and as The sorry plight of a self-discipline. the world to-day evinced the necessity for a thinking community and guidance was necessary even in thinking. The problems of the world to-day would I e considered at the young men's meetings. and correct thinkers would be pro deced.

Father Ryan, in a final appeal. asked the older men to interest themselves in the young in their ideals, and in their ambition bring to youthful enthusiasm the riper understanding of experience. • Mr. W. Ellery responded on behalf of B.C.Y.M.S. His faith in the Bortlder Society was such that he thought it veculd be the finest and best society or. the fields, but it would not realise its greatest *possibilities without further attention to the literary and debating sections wherein would be studied the political, commercial and industrial problems that confront the world. The social bias had received well merited attention, and much success had been achieved., He now hoped that cichation would receive greater' attention. Mr. W. English replied on behalf of the K.C.Y.M.S. Mr. English showed from the world movements of recess, years that this was the age of youth and that made our societies of even greater importance, in that therein the y ouths would be led to a proper urn de rstanding of the world's problems and of the Church's attitude to them The Governments of the past hal been responsible for the chaotic situ'stion of the world to-day: it was the duty of the young men to analyse those problems. to bring critical minds to bear on them, and to adjust them :el the right way.

Living With the Church Read Our Calendar Weekly March 18.--PASSION SUNDAY. Violet. Mass Proper. No Gloria. 2, St. Cyril. Creed. Preface of the Cross. These last weeks of Lent are a more immediate preparation for Easter The psalm "Judica" and the "Gloria Patri" are suppressed at Mass, and the Preface of the Cross is said, and most of the Lessons and chants refer directly to the Passion. This week is known as PasSion, and the next week as Holy Week. In the Gospel, Our Lord wishes to convince the Jews of their injustice in refusing to believe His teaching He shows that He has a right to thee- eon. fidence, for, apart from His miracles, He was an honest man. of blaoieless life, and therefore no one should suspect that He would deceive. Hen.-,e He asks, 'Which of you shall convince mt. of sin?" "If I say the truth to you. why do you not believe Me?" Up to that time Christ had given proof that His teaching was full of truth and heavenly wisdom, and the Gospel says that His enemies were so overpowered by His proofs that they had no longer the courage to question Him. On the other hand, His life had always been so holy, prudent, and irreproachable that no one could accuse Him of the slightest transgression of the law, or of sin. As He had shown His power and His holiness of life. He had a right to be heard, and if the Jews did not believe. Him He could justly reproach them for their injustice. In like manner. the Catholic Church to-day. by its holiness and by the saints and miracles with which it alone is privileged, bears sufficient proof of its 'truth, for those outside the Fold, though often those proofs may through environment or hostile upbringing, be hidden from their eyes. Such people. if well disposed, may belong to the soul of the true Church. March 19.—St. Joseph, Spouse of Our Lady, Patron of the Universal Church. Double of First Class. White.

Archbishop Redwood's Diamond Jubilee Celebrationsi Impressive and Picturesque Scenes
A RCHBISHOP REDWOOD. The affection in which the venerable Archbishop of Wellington is held by the Catholic community of that city, n l the respect with which he is regarded hy the citizens generally, were exemplified in an unforgettable manner on the 20th. ult., when the first of the celebrations (Pontifical High Mass, in the Basilica, and Benediction at the Basin Reserve) , marking the diamond jubilee of His Grace's episcopate were held. All shades of opinions and beliefs.attended the Pontifical High Mass, which was celebrated by the Jubilarian. The Basilica was thronged, and many The were unable to gain admission. procession through the city in the afternoon to the Basin Reserve, where Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament was given from a specially built altar, was a spectacular event, and a fitting conclusion to a memorable day in the history of the Archdiocese of WellingAn official estimate places the ton. number who participated in the processioh at over 10,000. in addition to which a crowd estimated at 5,000 congregated in the Basin Reserve before the procession arrived. Long before 10 o'clock, the time at which the Mass was to commence, crowds had gathered outside the Basil ica to see the notabilities arrive. The visiting clergy assembled in Guildford Terrace shortly before 10 o'clock, and a little later they were joined by the monsignori. bishops, and archbishops — including Archbishop Archbishop Redwood—the procession of prelates and clergy then proceeding down Guildford Terrace into Hill Street and then into the church . As the procession moved up the centre aisle, the clergy took their seats c n each side, the monsignori, bishops, and archbishops occupying the front row of seats. His Grace, with his at. tendant ministers, proceeded to the sanctuary and the Throne. where he was vested in the violet vestments appropriate to the season of Lent. The fact that the celebrations occurred in the Lenten season also necessitated the high altar being unadorned. The celebrant of the Mass was His The ministers were: Deacon: Grace. Very Rev.

Miss Mary McKeowen (soprano). Mr. Leslie Stapp (tenor), and Mr. Charles Hickmott (bass) sung the "Beneclictus," and Miss Mai-y Bald (contralto) the "Et Incarnatus Est." The Plain Chant of the Mass was sung by the male voices cit the choir, under the baton of the Rev. Father C. Peelily, S.M. (St. Patrick's College, Silverstream). Throughout the Mass, which occupied one hour and twenty minutes, His Grace. although 95 years of age, .and ting. showed no sign of strain. He read from the siissal easily, and his voice in the sung portions of the Mass resounded clearly. The occasional sermon was preached at the conclusion of V ass be the Rt. Rev. Dr. Gleeson.

Wellington. on Tuesday night, the 27th. ult., Archbishop Redwood received the heartfelt tributes of the whole of New Zealand, on the occasion of his diamond jubilee, says the 'Evening Post." In the presence of an enthusiastic crowd that left . standing room only in the vast hall, the 95-yearold Archbishop was accorded the unanimous good wishes of leaders of all sections of the nation. Hundreds who failed to gain admission waited outside. and listened by means of loud-speakers to the proceedings within. A feature of the evening was the inspiring singing of the special choir of 200 voices. The Mayor of Wellington (Mr. T C. A Hislopi presided. As the official party entered the hall and walked up the aisle to the platform the tumult of cheering almost drowned the notes of the grand organ. Cheering and applause was spontaneous and frequent throughout the evening. reaching its climax in a thunderous ovation to the jubilarian before and after his speech. Messages of congratulations were

MELBOURNE'S CENTENARY VISITORS. According to the latest official estimates, 35,000 overseas visitors and 60,000 visitors from other States are each expected to spend several weeks in Melbourne during the period for which the Centenary celebrations will continue. Most of these visitors will arrive in November and December, and will cause an acute problem with respect to accommodation. One of the solutions offered is that a number of temporary buildings should be erected This may not be necessary, however, if new hotels and extensions to existing hotels and suburban guest houses are completed in time. The Lord Mayor of Melbourne thinks that the hotels of the metropolis should 'I am thorbe made more attractive. oughly in accord," he says, "with the suggestion that life in the hotels— which after all are the only homes that some people know—should be made We will be judged more attractive. by some visitors very largely by the character of the life and amusement in our hotels., Everything should be done t o make the stay in Melbourne of our overseas friends as pleasant and en,ayable as possible."

She carried a bouquet of parchment roses After the ceremony Mr. and fern. and Mrs. Duffy entertained a few of their intimate friends at their home in Aberdeen-street.

New Norcia Cricket S.I.C. v. Victoria Plains. The match between S.I.0 and Vict,ria Plains. played on the New Norcia Oval. resulted in a draw. At the close o f play. the Collegians were in a very strong position. and were unlucky not to have won. College batted first, and were all out for 166. After a poor start, the batsmen settled down, and runs came at a steady rate. Maher again batted well, and during his long stay at the wickets he gave only one chance. The Forbes-Brennan partnership, the best of the day, was a fine effort.

Whoever is truly resolved to follow Jews Christ should fear nothing, for Jesus Christ will assuredly help him. Raise your eyes and contemplate Jesus Christ on the Cross, and you will see how trifling are all your sufferings. He who keeps steadily on without pausing will reach the end of his path nnd the summit of perfection . We sound the harp's sweet harmonies when we pronounce the name of .Tesus.—Blessed Henry Suso. Desire nothing else however good it may appear. but according to the rule of the Divine Will. He who resigns the world is in constant possession of a serene mind, but he who follows its pleasures often meets with nothing but remorse and c onfusion. That moment, which will decide on your eternity, will come more quickly than you think, and so it is well to take measures in good time, that .you may go to meet it well prepared. - The greater the love, the greater the sorrow: hence the more ardent St. Mary Magdalen's love for Jesus. the more keen was her sorrow at the recollection of the great offences she had c ommitted against God. from Whom she had received so many graces. PATIENCE. :The truly patient man does not consider by whom he is tried, whether by a superior, equal. or inferior; whether by a good and holy man, or by one who is perverse and unworthy; but. Indifferently from all creatures, every affliction which happens to him, however great or frequent it may be, he thankfully receives it from the hand of God. and regards it as a great gain; because nothing before God, however small it may he, which is suffered for God's sake can pass away without its reward."—Thomas a' Kempis. IMPERFECTION. " Ah. I would rather account to God for too great gentleness than for too great Feveritv. Is not God all love? God the Father is the Father of mercy. God the Son is a Lamb; God the Holy Ghost is a Dove---that is gentleness itself. And are vou wiser than God?" SUPERNATURAL Nature by grace is not abolished or destroy but perfected.—Ven. Robert Southwell, CHRIST'S POOR. p Take courage, ye poor of Jesus Christ, aradie the cross.is for the poor St. Paul of TRUE VALUES.

FATHER DEGEN'S POINTERS. There will be no social contentment until there is a return to the simple w orking philosophy of the Holy Family at Nazareth. Material prosperity should be pursued and valued only so far as it contributes to develop our moral spiritual, and intellectual interests. There is nothing easier than to sit hy the fire side, pulling to pieces prominent leaders and active workers, who a7e doing their best to make the world better.

THE PEACE OF GOD. One of the best proots that a soul is progressing on the road to heaven and is making rapid advancement in virtue, is the being able to remain in peace in the midst of the worries of the world, the assaults of hell and the contradictions of creatures. Be strong in this, and mock at the attacks of the evil spirits.--.S ' Paul of the Cross. THE ACCEPTABLE TIME. The time for merit will soon be past. There will be no place for faith and trust when in Thy light I shall see light.

'ASPRO' is safe, and it does not harm the heart, digestion. or stomach. It can be taken by anyone. anywhere. at any time. and the reason why 'ASPRO' has such a large number of uses in every home is because, after ingestion in the system. it is an internal antiseptic —an anti-pyretic or fever reducer—an antiperiodic a powerful germicide. and a definite solvent of Uric Acid.

t Catholic Girls' Holtel Win,ian's People, by J. E. Hammond, edited by Paul Hasluck, is the story of the South-West Australian aborigines, by an old colonist. It is a most interesting book, compiled from observations by Mr. Hammond of the aborigines of the South-West before the advent of the white man had left the impress of civilisation upon the black man's ways. habits, and customs. The author is well over the margin of seventy years. but he retains a vivid memory of Winjan's people in the days when settlement in the South-West was scant, and the wide open spaces gave full liberty to the black man to follow his untutored ways. The book carries a foreword by Sir James Mitchell. K.C.M.G., and recommendations from the Chief Protector of Aborigines of W.A. (Mr. A. 0. Neville), Dr, J. S. Battye, author of the "History of Western Australia:" Mr. Alfred Carson, and Mr. G. Elliott, who, like Mr. Hammond, has had a long experience of the West Australian blacks. Mr. Hammond's knowledge of the natives began in 1862, the year of the great flood. In all there are seventeen chapters Throughout the matter is interesting There are no dull pages, and those who wish to know something of a fast dying race will find "Winjan's People" interesting reading.

A fine specimen of architecture, this School for the Brothers of St. John the Baptist, was blessed and opened by the Archbishop of Adelaide a few weeks ago. Situated in the Parish of Thebarton, within three miles from the heart of the city, this most up-to-date school is a decided addition to the Catholic educational establishments of the neighbouring State. The Brothers of St. John the Baptist are an Australian Order, having been founded by the late NIonsigno:. Heals-. and it is to his memory and to that of the Brothers' first Superior (Brother Jer9me , that the new school has been erected. His Holiness Pope Pius XI. hon Aired the new building by granting hi Pontifical Blessing to one of the parish Sodalities, the Golden Jubilee of which synchronised with the opening day Important addresses were delivered a t the opening ceremony by the Archbishop of -Adelaide. Most Reverend Dr. Spence. and also by the Coadjutor Prior Archbishop, Most Reverend Dr. Killian. A special Memorial Address was de livered by the Very Reverend Niellx)urne. of Hogan, 0.P..

Catholics Decide to Accept Spanish Republic (By Rev Manuel Grana.) "El Debate," leading Catholic daily of Spain, has published an important In editorial by Spanish Catholics. the editorial, the paper scores those who would question the loyalty and pa. triotism of Spanish Catholics and counsels its readers to continue to folios.% faithfully the principles and standards of the Church as defined under similar conditions by Pope Leo XIII.. and reiterated since the advent of the Spanish Republic by the Spanish Episcopate and by His Holiness Pope Pius Xl. The Church is not incompatible with a republican form of government, either' through principle or by evxperience, says "El Debate" and thereafter inquires: `/Is it not rather the case that the Second Republic of Spain has made itself and declared itself incompatit!, with the Catholic Church?" The editorial says, in conclusion: "To use the same words as those of the Pope in the Encyclical `Dilectissirna Nobis,' provided the Divine rights .. of God and of Christian consciences are Spanish Catholics. as such, ..- :houlcl find no difficulty in adapting t'oerriselyes to republican institutions." In the same issue, "El Debate' quotes an editorial from "L'Osservatore Romano," in which the Vatican City daily praises Spanish Catholics for thei. concept of civil order and declares thai"the enemies of the Republic, of th State and of the public authorities a -e not the persecuted priests, religious and Catholics and, those recently expelled, "Thr but rather their persecutors." new regime has emerged from the rfcent elections in a stronger position." the (rooted excerpt adds. "It includes groups who ideally do not accept it, but who are at least resigned to discossino it. Tn torn, they ask of the Republic that it now follow conserva• tive courses. . . . The Spanish Re. public, as a reflection of th e true thought of the nation, is not under discwzsion." 410

This editorial has been widely used in the Spanish press. Even the Leftist press interprets it and the words of the Sovereign Pontiff as an exhortation t o the Spanish people that they no, set obstacles in the path of the Republic but rather that they work within it and in harmony for God and court. try. On all sides it is held to be tut deniable that the expressions in Vatican City in the Spanish Republic have had considerable effect upon many Cs. tholics who heretofor had experienced certain scruples regarding their support of a Republic up..4er which the Church was persecuted. But the Holy Fathei's declaration to the Spanish pilgrim% some time ago is cited. "It is necessarv.' he said, "to work with unit nC thought and with profound units- anq
concord, and with generous renouncement of individual and special ideas in favour of the common good of Spain.' It was along these lines that the great Rightist coalition, the .pani.31.1 Autonom sus the Confederation of Righisas—the CEDA—organised for the Cortes elections. They organEed as an opposition and in the interest of conservatism, suppressing the,: minor differences. In the Cortes they do not constitute a unitei party hut they do form a potential unity of opposition to legislation that affronts the traditional beliefs and feelings 91 the Spanish people. In reality, there are now important Catholic groups who experience no inconvenience or embarrassment in accepting the present government.

Radio Apostolate Urged by Prelate 1 Catholics are urged to use the radio as a great Christian apostolate and to install radio sets in their homes by the Most Rev. John Henry Gerard Jansen, A rchbishop of Utrecht, in an appeal to aid the Catholic radio organisations in Holland, which have lust merged. Urging the support of Catholics for the Catholic stations in Holland. the Archbishop emphasises the importance of radio as a means of maintaining Christian culture and spreading Catholicism. Besides affording an opportunity for the public and most efficacious refutation of errors, the Archbishop points out, the radio is a valuable channel for the dissemination of literary nrrl artistic culture, and for the stimulation of social, civil and patriotic inThe radio, the prelate conterest. tinues, is a wholesome recreation for the children, brings gaiety to the home and consoles and comforts the sick and need by enabling them to follow the Mass and other religious services, to listen to sermons, and to unite with the congrregations of various churches as the prayers ai'e broadcast. "Without a doubt," His Excellency says, "the radio is a mighty means of propagating the Kingdom of God, and every Catholic must consider it a stringent duty to support this orant apostolate. . . .

As the teams came out for the second half she nudged Bill's arm. "Come, let's go out now," she said. "This is where we came in." T wo Irishmen were working on the roof of a building one day when one fell to the ground. The other leaned over and said: "Ate you dead or alive?" "I'm alive," said Mike feebly.
