He said he 'had witnessed the sufferings of the nation himself. and heard the lying propavanda which promised

The Immodesty of Authors
Referring to the tolerance given by the public to authors who go ,beyond the limits of decency in their writings, C ardinal Routine. of Westminster, wrote in his Lenten Pastoral: ' Some five-and-twenty years ago the minds of many were disturbed by what w as known as 'Nfodernism.' Owing to the energetic action of the then reigning Pontiff, that danger was met and destroyed; but recently we have noticed a tendency to another kind of modernism. namely, in matters of morality--a tendency not exactly to defend, but to give a certain toleration to, departures from the traditional modesty, reserve and reticence, which are characteristic of Christianity. "Books have been written by writers w ho claim the Catholic name in which this modernism has shown itself: and they have not met universally with
40-0-444,.-
the condemnation which they have deserved." On this subject, the Cardinal quotes a passage from a speech he made during the National Catholic Congress in 1929. Part of this quotation reads: "The writer of books, the painters of pictures. the actors on the stage or for the screen'. the women by the fashion of their dress, who render selfcontrol more difficult for the average normal Man or woman. and who, thereby, make the natural craving for sinful self-gratification more imperious than it would otherwise be, are doing moral evil and are committing sin in the sight of God. "No silly prating about the necessity of elucidating problems. or that 'to the pure all things are pure,' or that the claims of art must be satisfied, which we frequently hear, can change the moral law, or alter the fundamental facts of human nature!'

the faithful for the purposes of worship, there is an implied discourtesy ir. any criticism of the Government's a.-tions which is made in a public church. Representations are to be made to the Holy See. expressing this displeasure of the Government. and the grounds would seem to be, in the first place. that the Nuncio. acting as Dean of the Diplomatic Corps. organised the c elebration. and invited the accredited representatives in Spain of all countries. Second, on account of the tone which he employed in his address, in which he censured the fundamental law of the Spanish State and the laicising character of much of the legislation approved by the constituent Cortes. It is expected that the Minister of Justice will address an energetic protest to the Bishop of Madrid for having allowed the use of the 'Cathedral Church of Madrid for this purpose, and pointing out that, in virtue of existing ,the State cedes the use of the churches to the faithful for acts of worship only, and not for manifestations of a political character like this one, which the Government. as stated above. regr,rels as an act of censure on the Spanish Republic. "El Debate" points out that the Ambassadors and Ministers of Germany, 'Argentine. Portugal. Brazil, Venezuela, Tapan. Bolivia. the Charge d'Affaires of C' olumbia. as well as representatives from the Embassies of Italy and Prance. accompanied by their families took past in the ceremony, and paid their homage to the Nuncio.

But the greatest conquest was in the villages of Govern:ioiri and Ettayapuram. The former is a Protestant village from which 2 families of Methodists and Anglicans. the .staunchest Protestant sects in youth India. were won over at the close last year. The latter is a Hindu 7. . .7-iinclari village. The Zamindar is a p-,ty prince wielding great power over his tenants and labourers. There is great opposition to conversion in the -illage. especially fan the high caste people. wh9 even threaten to use violence azainst the Catholics. In spite of such opposition 30 families were baptised early last year. All these converts are very low in the social scale. Materially, they are far worse.

Opening Ceremonies and Choir INVITATION TO SINGERS.
We are asked to announce that for the opening of Subiaco's new Church, anticipated to take place in August, the Choir intends to present Haydn's First Mass in B Flat. For this purpose, a cordial invitation is issued to all singers accustomed to Choir work, to co-operate with the Subiaco Choir in working up this excellent Mass, and make its rendering on the opening day worthy of the occasion. Some string instrumentalists are also wanted. Choir rehearsals will be held each Friday e vening in St. Joseph's. at 8 p.m., and will continue until the opening of the new Church.

Lay helpers co-operating with the missionary are well treated. A mission doctor receives from the government 90.000 Belgian francs a year. and 50.000 francs for medical supplies. Native rrission teachers are satisfactorily remunerated. The Belgian Congo today has 733 priests. 954 sisters. and 435 brothers. The Catholic population is over a million (l.081,957). In two years the Catholics of the Congo have increased by 32 per cent. Adult conversions last year were 109.911.. Over 750.000 are under instruction as catechumens.

The new King Leopold III. follows his father in this interest in the Congo. Last year he made a long study tour to favour agricultural development At Leopoldville and at every point further on he sought out the missionaries and passed hours with them. deriving much pleasure from what they had to tell him. Perhaps no colonising power in the world gives so much attention to missions as does Belgium. The authorities recognise the priest, brother and sister as agents of the highest good. folk who come to stay, to become part of the country and to build the country by building the people spiritually and otherwise. Hence the eovernment aids the missionary as priest, as eductator, as doctor, as messenger of charity.

The Bishop said that it was very unusual for the Hierarchy to honour any deceased layman in the public way they were doing honour to Mr. Devlin. The exception in the case of the late Mr. Devlin was that in his case he was not only a prominent politician, but he was in the first place a zealous Catholic who had rendered very valuable service to the Catholic body in Scotland. He was one of a few Catholic members of. Parliament, said Bishop Graham, who piloted the Education Act (Scotland) of 1918 through the Hckuse of Commons. The Bill which, while it was a long-delayed measure of justice to Catholics, was one which required all the delicacy of handling, tact and political acumen, which Mr He was also exDevlin supplied. tremely keen in helping the various communities of nuns in Glasgow, and the Little Sisters of the Poor, the Sis. ters of Charity, and others will not soon forget his kindness.

PERTH, SATURDAY. APRIL 7, 1934.
University Sunday A University is a place of teaching universal knowledge. Its primary object is intellectual, not moral. But practically speaking it cannot fulfill its object duly without the Church's assistance, that is the Church is necessary for its integrity. Why does the Church favour so much the growth of Universities? Is it for the sake of the Sciences which are the matter of its teaching, or the students who are to be the subjects? Undoubtedly for the sake of the latter. However true or beautiful or ingenious or useful the Sciences, the Church would not be acquitting itself of the dispensa-
tion committed to it, if it were smitten with an abstract love of those matters. Rather does it not contemplate them solely and simply in relation to the interests of Revealed Truth. What it does is for the sake of religion. If it looks with satisfaction on strong temporal governments, which promise perpetuity, it is for the sake of Religion. If it encourages and patronises art and science, it is also for the sake of Religion. It delights in giving its children the widest and most philosophic systems of intellectual education, from an intimate conviction that Truth is her real ally, that knowledge and reason are sure ministers to Faith.
And so when the Church favours or founds a University, or L niversity Societies, she is not cherishing talent, genius, or knowledge for their own sake, but rather for the sake of her children, with a view to their spiritual welfare and their religious influence and utility, with the object of training them to fill their respective posts in lite better, and of making them more intelligent, capable, active members of society. That attitude would hold good in any University, no matter how Christian or cultured. Science must ever be the handmaid of religion. How much more so must the religias; ect be stressed when dealing with a world that is already f ar advanced in paganism when random theories and imposing sophistries are being daily advanced which run directly counter to the principles of _justice and charity, and which carry away halfformed and superficial intellects to their own and their neighbour's destruction. * Such, then, is the great need of University Soci eties, formed under the aegis of the Church, to keep its intelligentsia in touch with the truth, and to give them reason for the faith that is in them. Such a Society is our own Newman Society, named after that great protagonist of Catholic Universities, the highly cultured and deeply spiritual convert Cardinal. It includes the members of every profession, experts in the various branches of the arts and sciences, but all with one great ultimate object in view, the harmonising of the temporal with the spiritual. As yet the Newman Society is but in its infancy—a mere Founded six baby in fact. y ears ago by its present Chaplain, Rev. Dr. McMahon, it has a definite, practical goal in view—the provision of a Catholic residential College within the University, where students may be in the University. but not of it —where they may ever inhale their native Catholic atmosphere, and where, above all, they may be tutored in e verything that pertains to their personal and social responsibilities. That goal is still far from attainment, though not quite beyond Our own horizon. For already His Grace has procured a spacious and c ommanding. position for Perhaps some the college site. m_ odern Maecenas might immortalise his name by financing the f_oundation. The Anglican community have already had such a b enefactor: why should the Catholics lag behind? It would be a charitable work of the first order, a boon to Church and State alike. Of Catholics well grounded in their religion, there has never th7In greater need than to-day. So many false principles are liable met with in secular studies, that it is incumbent on us to .e lali.) 1,e to cope with them whenever they arise. That work will maint all to the University graduate and undergraduate. The aim of the _s Yew-man Society is to prepare them for it, and it therefore dese the wholehearted support and encouragement of th'e whole i mmunity. The forces at work which would disrupt the society \vhich we live have their source in intellectual pride, which is a unto itself, and the main bulwarks against such an attack are the ,' members of the learned professions. who recognise that the " Y true and chaste knowledge is that which comes from above.
April S.—Low Sunday. Double 1st. Class. White. Mass Proper, , Creed. Preface 3f Easter. Called Low Sunday, the octave day of Easter, in contrast with Easter or High Sunday. The octave of Easter is unique in character. Those neophytes who were baptised on Easter Sunday kept this week as a time of retreat, and wore their white baptismal robes, which were not laid aside till Low Sunday. Hence another name, White Sunday—from the term "Dominica in albos deponendis"—the Sunday in which they laid aside their baptismal robes. In Rome the feast was celebrated at the Charch of St. Pancras, who was a martyr of fourteen years of age, and who was given as an example to the neophytes, who in the spiritual life were as yet new-born babes, but yet their faith must be strong that they may triumph over the world. The Gospel tells of the unbelief of St. Thomas, who was not with the disciples when Jesus appeared to them, and Our Lord's gentle rebuke, while proving that He was indeed really risen from the dead. Apart from proving His Resurrection, the words of Our Saviour on this occa"Peace be sion are most important. to you. As the Father hath sent Me, I also send you:' These words prove the legitimate authority of the Apostles. As Christ was sent on earth by the Eternal Father, absolute Master of all things, so in like manner, the Apostles were sent by Christ, in whose hand is placed all power on earth and in Treaven. Christ's mission was to teach the world by His doctrines, His mixacles. and by His example, and the Apostles were to do likewise. He immediately added, "Receive ye the Holy Whose sins You shall forgive Ghost. they are forgiven them, and whose sins you shall retain they are retained." He thus imparted the Holy Ghost to the Apostles, to enable them to exercise with effect the judging of consciences. They in the Sacrament of Confession were to communicate this same Holy Ghost to all their successors, the Bishops and priests, in order that the authority from Him should he exercised throughout the world. The trcial of to-day Gospel is to believe promptly and sincerely all that legitimat2 ministers of Christ teach us, rellting to life e ternal. Let us not be so presumptaous as to constitute oumlves the judges in matters of faith, and let us remember that the Redeemer called those blessed who have not seen and have believed.

And the Angel. being come in, said to her, Hail full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou Mary, having heard. among women. was troubled at her saying, and thought with herself what manner of And the salutation this might be.

And Mary said to the Angel: How shall this be done. because Iknow not man? And the Angel answering said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall o vershadow thee, and therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be Called the Son of God. And Mari: said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord, he it done to me according to Thy word."

Bunbury ST. PATRICK'S BALL. • The St. Patricks Ball, held in St. jos, eph's Hall, Bunbury, on Wednesday March 21, 1934, was an unqualified . cess. For several weeks prior to sue' this great social event an energetic and en, thusiastic committee of ladies and gen, tlemen worked unselfishly and tireless. ly to ensure that it would be a sue cess socially and financially. The per. sonnel of the committee was as fa lows: Chairman, Ven. .Archdeacon Hayes, P.P., V.F.; vice-chatrman, Rev Father M. Giles; Mesdames Clifford, A. Buswell, MeCaul, Monaghan, McKenna, Buck, Johnston, Brown, and Banting; Messrs. L. Johnston (secretary), J. R anting, Monaghan, H. Chadd, and E. Brown. A unique feature of the ball was the presentation of twelve debutantes--it being the first occasion on which such a ceremony has taken place in Bunbury. As it was decided only a fort. night before the ball to have this very pleasing little feature of the function, the intending debutantes and their respective partners had to attend pran, tices almost every evening before the great event. Such an undertaking could only be accomplished by the enthuaiasm and co-operation of the young ladies and their partners, and with the invaluable help of an efficient and in. defatigable tutoress. Miss Rose Ridley, a recent arrival in the parish, very kindly consented to put the debutante's and their partners through the various ,tages of the presentation ceremony. This task entailed Miss Ridley's being present for over an hour almost even, e vening for a fortnight. The excel. lent and faultless way in which her charges went through the various phases of the ceremony was an eloquent tribute to her careful and thorough - ''on. and their own willingness and enthusiasm. His Grace the Coadjutor Archbishop, Most Rey. Dr. Prendiville, who happen. ed to be at Dardanup on Canonical Visitation, very graciously acquiesced to the proposal that he should receive the debutantes. A crowded hall witnessed the ceremony, which began at 9.30 p.m. Miss Doreen D'Arcy orchea tra. who came from PerC for the occa sion. supplied the nausfe. The debutantes presented to His Grace the Coadjutor Archbishop by Mrs. Dr. Flynn. assisted by Mrs. R. Connell, were: Misses Emma Clifford, Peggy Murnane, Joan Owens, Jean Graham, Mary Flynn, Mary Buswell, Gladys Purcell, Lomas Foster, Kathleen McKenna, Kitty McMahon. Rhoda Their part. O wens. and Joan Wells. ners were: Messrs. Bert Clifford, Jack Flynn, Roy Henderson, Ted Brown, Les Johnston, Jack McGarry, Ned Jchnston, Jack Banting.

The Spiritual Life FOR THE HOME. SWINGS FAREWELL) He loved broad spaces and the whistling wind, Green o' the fields, the singing of the stream, The glory of the woods when sunbeams find The places where the sky flowers nod and dream; He loved to feel the freedom of the waves, And breast their surges, cleaving each proud crest, Then, tiring, lie within their shallow caves, And for a lightning moment, pant and rest. In summer time he loved to race the roads, T wining their ribboned lengths, about his wheels, Lashing the air, with speeds elastic goads, He laughs in joyance, as its hiss he feels. So. all in love, he loved and lived his life. Till the dread summons shortened his brief span; Simple and fearless. free from stress of strife, He passed in peace to God—God's kindly man. —J. M. W. WORDS OF WISDOM. Conquer yourself in all things .from which our depraved nature shrinks. Remember that what can be done today cannot be performed tomorrow, for time past never returns.—,St. Alphonsus. The fruit and profit of a soul noes not consist so much in think;ng as In loving. There is nothing more to the purpose for exciting a spirit of prayer than the reading of spiritual books. Mary is a specimen, and more than a specimen, in the purity of !•_er soul and body, of what man was before his fall, and what he would have been, had he risen to his full perfection.— Cardinal Newman. Pride, ill-nature, and want of sense are the three great sources of bad manners and without some one of these defects no one will behave himself ill. We have Jesus with us, we are, as it Were, two individuals instead of one: and the burden we carry. being thus divided, becomes the lighter.--Pere Eymud. Those only watch, 0 my God, who think of You and love You. All the rest sleep; they dream dreams and attach themselves to shadows. You only are reality. It is constantly said that human nature is heartless. Do not believe it. Human nature is kind and generous: hut it is narrow and blind, and can only with difficulty conceive anything, but what it immediately sees and feels. WHITE FRAGRANCE. White things are fragrant things. they fill us with delight, such as frost sPun on a field like, a counterpane of light. White things are simple things, and very homely, too, such as linen lying O ..the grass till it looks almost new. White things are children's thinp, very fine and '11,11)s on window frail, such as frosty -panes, with diamond . tig and sail.

In other places the well-to-do inhabitants provide a meal every day fee poor children, and this is also known as "The Lord's Portion." Thus a blessing, which the people firmly believe ever attends it, is drawn down un the thoughtful givers. -LOVE OF ONE'S NFILGHBOUR. Above all other virtues there is one which Jesus Christ Our Lord puts before His own as that which most likens them to the Three Persons in one God; it is the virtue of fraternal charity, of love of one man for another, of man for his fellow-men. By thet characteristic men were to know who were His disciples.—Most Rev. Alban Goodier, S.J.

THE RECORD.
National Centenary of Melbourne EUCHARISTIC CONGRESS The Region of the Congress By a decree dated May 19, 1919, ot the Cardinal Prefect of the Congregation of Propaganda Fide, the jurisdiction of his Excellency the Apostolic Delegate extends from Australia and New Zealand to the missions of all insular Oceania and the Melanesian Islands; and the region of the National Eucharistic Congress of 1934 will comprise the whole of the jurisdiction of the Apostolic Delegate. The great Eucharistic Congress held in Sydney in 1928, was an international one, and its outlook was, therefore, not primarily concerned with this country. Its success sowed the seeds of an increased Eucharistic harvest, and it is the aim of the National Eucharistic Congress to gather some of the fruits of that harvest. It will be the privilege of the City of Melbourne on the occasion of the Centenary of its foundation to be the rallying point of the Catholicity of the South Seas. The National Congresses that are held in the Catholic countries of Es!. rope are purely national in character, and concern people of one country only. The Centenary Eucharistic Congress, however, will have, to a certain extent, a genuinely international character. The region of its influence embraces all the dioceses of Australia and New Zealand, with the Aboriginal Missions of Kimberley and the Far North, and the thousands of islands, large and small, that make up Oceania. The people of Australia have a very real obligation towards the natives of the South Seas. First of all towards our own aborigines, whose country we have made our own, and then towards the Polynesians. who must, in the near future, depend principally on Catholic Australia for the spreading and fostering of the Faith. The political interests of the Pacific may not concern us as Catholics. but we cannot disregard the spiritual welfare of the people of the South Seas. This, the general obligation of the people of Australia. will be concentrated in Melbourne for this year, and the people of Melbourne must realise the importance of the Congress. His Holiness the Pope has signalised the occasion by sending a Papal Legate to represent him, an almost unprecedented gesture for a National Congress. It is hut a further instance of the zeal of His Holiness for the misisons. and his realisation of the importance of the Centenary Congress. A brief survey of the region of the Congress will serve to stress this importance still further.

4 rapid glance at the map would bring these scanty particulars to life, ,how of what an enormous area Melbourne will be the spiritual centre in December. It is a veritable world of widespread distances and different races. and the spiritual responsibility of that world must be shouldered by the people of Australia. It is a fitting gesture on Melbourne's hundredth birthday to bestow a thought to this responsibility, and invite these peoples t o take part in the demonstration of our common Faith, so that "We, being many, are one bread, one body, all that partake of one bread." (I Cor. x., 17.) THE CHILDREN AND THE CONGRESS. The Mass "Alme Pater" to Be Sung.

"But what is wrong about it?" "Well, sir, you're still here." Lawyer: "But, madam, you cannot marry again. If you do, your husband has clearly specified in his will that his fortune will go to his cousin." Fair Client: "Yes, that's so. It's the cousin that I'm marrying.'

Motor Salesman: "You will sink nearly out of sight in the luxurious cushions of this lovely new car.' Rich Lady (decisively) : No, thanks: When I ride in a new car, I want to be plainly visible to everyone." Innkeeper: "Dick Turpin was once nearly caught in this room."

"Yes; it's dreadful when they look like it as well." She rushed into a

"I've been trying for hours to telephone you, to get you to send up another bottle of my medicine, and you never answered," she complained. "I know I have one of these dial phones, and I sometimes get it wrong, but I couldn't be wrong all the time. I tried dozens of times and couldn't get anybody." The chemist was aggrieved, but was Madam sure she had dialled the right number? "Why, of course I am," she replied. `'I took it from one of your own bottles--EST. 1843."

Hostess (to gloomy youth) : "I hope you enjoyed your game with the major. He's very clever with the cards." Youth: "I should think he is. He started by telling my fortune, and now he's counting it." The lawyer, addressing a class of aspirants for legal honours, sought to impress them with the necessity for weighing carefully the exact meaning of testimony. "For example," he said, "supposing I told you that three frogs were sitting together on a log, and one -decided to jump off; how many frogs do you think would be left on the log?" "Two!" cried the class. 'Wrong!' corrected the lawyer. "The frog I specially referred to only 'decided to jump off." Ile was wakened in the middle of the night by his nervous wife, who said, "I hear sounds as though someone is coming up the stairs." "Wha' the time?" he asked sleepily. "Two o'clock," replied the wife.

Madam.- nodded Mary, "I'll do as you tell me, but this is the strangest superstition I ever heard of." T wo men in a car went past the automatic signals and were stopped by a constable. "I'm sorry," said the driver, quickwittedle, "but I happen to be a doctor, and I'm taking a patient to the asylum in a hurry." The officer was suspicious, and looked penetratingly at the passenger. But the latter was also quick-witted, and, looking up at the constable with a serephic smile, whispered: "Kiss me, sergeant!" They got away with it. Brown: "How's business? Getting any orders?" Commercial traveller: 'Two this morning. 'Be home by 4x' and 'keep away from that fellow Brown'--both from the wife!" "I wish my wife would give up slimming." "She's rather thin already, isn't she?"
