both sexes are on the same benches and us the same places of recreation. are a method of arriving at that co-education of the sexes which was condemned by the Pope and is opposed to Catholic moral teaching. "If these schools are established the legislators and the authorities who have charge of these schools, the parents and masters (and pastors), according to diocesan regulations, are to take precautions necessary both of a material and a moral code. If no precautions prove effective, then at any sacrifice the child's soul must be saved." In the next section the Bishops deal with the duty owed to the State, pointing out that the French must awaken in themselves a sense of duty and apply that in their private life as well as in their public life, and thus promote the interests of their fellow men. "For this work of restoration." they says, "the Church offers its incomparable resources to the country. You 1. no the spiritual riches of the Church. with which your life is wholly penetrated. You know that by its doctrine, its moral code, its sacraments and its multiple institutions, it enlightens your souls, purifies them, sanctifies them, and guides them. Such is the fundamental work of the Church, and in doing that work it forms at once good Christians and good citizens. But in the deposit which Our I,ord has entrusted to it, it has other riches—the family, the world of labour, the organisation of the State, the relations of people amongst themselves—all these are served by it, nothing escapes its mission, nothing escapes its influence. "In all these domains its teachings and actions are so productive of good it truly possesses what the Gospel cal% the verba vitae. "hi the present crisis at home and abroad is not the Church the guardian of liberty and of peace? On the one hand, in defining the rights and the duties of Governments and of citizsns, and, on the other, in emphasising the privacy of human personality, it defends us against excessive `stat:sm' and against anarchy, assuring, at the same time, a wise liberty and true civiiisation. "To a world distraught, the Church. like a kind mother. offers its entire de• votion and paternal love with the great and noble resources with which God has entrusted it. "May our clear country understand better that to restore its moral life and power and to correspond to all that other people expect of it, nothing will he more useful than the union of the Catholic clergy and the faithful. You will effect this union by your ardent frequent prayers. be your example and by your charity: by your desire to comfort and to help all those who suffer. all those who endure hardships. and by your unshakeable confidence in the destinies of our dear land. "It is necessary to add that for this great work of restoration demanded by God you must repudiate licence in dress and in morals, which in these lat. ter times lead us to the risk of compromising the good taste, the dignity and the moral bearing of which our Cnt'llttV was AlWaVe er rrolir1"

To-day most of us are massed in the cities, and are busy with machinery. Work is not the same under the new conditions. The old objectives will not suit to-day. and, willingly or not, we must yield wav to the new and part with the old. The eight hours' day of a five-day week is with us, and in its trainfollows the problem of leisure. An idle week-end, and long evenings, give the modern worker much free time. How does he use it? Two courses are open to him; he may abuse that leisure, or he may better himself. The increased time off from work will send many into the field of sport, and these hours will be given for the many to recreation. Some few are taking advantag e of the wonderful opportunities which increased leisure time affords for educational pursuits. Whether we remain at the 0 level of hours, oramusement during our leisure attempt something higher in I. the educational field, depends on our• selves.

last Friday, when the f ortnightly dance at the Swan Hall began its winter cruise. Street The dance will be known as "The Wallflowers”-not that there are any such things as Wallowers to-day; there may be wild flowers! A splendid band, excellent supper, and the best floor in the State (this side of the Swan, of course, no offence meant to Leederville's palais de dance , . The hall looked a picture, palms, garlands, and streamers. Tickets are 1/6 (no tax). And we are at home to you all, the friends of The W allflowers, again on Friday, May 25. Pariah Talk. The tennis club is very much alive again, and a neat shelter shed is the latest evidence of the players' enthusiasm. The new Statue of the Immaculate Conception has such a motherly expression, with arms outstretched to welcome, to forget, and to encourage our erring steps. The donors must be pleased that their gift is so much admired and appreciated by the people. Perhaps. the Sacred Heart Sodality may set themselves the task of securing a companion statue of the Sacred Heart for our new church. We do not like to see that vacant pedestal opposite St. Joseph. Are there any clients of The Little Flower in South Perth? The Rev. Father Truffle, C.SS.R., is coming over for the week-end, to conduct a Retreat for the newly-formed New Norcia Old Girls. If we talk to him nicely, we may hear his eloquent tongue on Sunday evening. Our church grounds are certainly looking good. Grass has covered the sand dunes, and the trees are growing to make such an arboreal setting for our new church. Some of us are saying that if we wait long enough the pines will pay for the church.

"The Wandering Jew" A T THEATRE ROYAL. Poignant and engrossing picturisation of Temple Thurston's famous story, with Conrad Veidt giving brilliant performance in title role. Highly sensitive direction presents theme with noble dignity in series of majestic scenes that cover four phases of the Jew's wanderings.

The new church is dedicated to St. Jerome. Doctor of the Church, and Patron Saint of Dalmatia; it is built et cream Spearwood limestone, on plans prepared by Mr. E. Le B. Henderson, and the work was executed by Mr. F. Hahn. Nearly everyone remarked or. the beauty of the little church. whiel is complete in every respect with bell, belfry. full altar flirnishings, two sacristies. and a full array of benches Certainly great credit is due to the. architect and ci .ntra:•tor. who were able to build St. _Jerome.< at a very reasonable cost. As soon as His Grace the Archbishop had finished blessing the church. the Solemn Mass was begun. Rev. Dr. Goody celebrated, with Mr. Oldrini for Mr. From start to finish, from the , Asperges to the Last Gospel, everything was in the Slav tongue. including the sermon. The music was rendered in the traditional Dalmatian psalmody by a Slav choir collected principally in Spearwood and Osborne Park. and the completeness with which they rendered the ecclesiastical chants would serve as a lesson to many another of our church choirs. Not only did they s:ng the unchanging parts of the Mass, but also that which is variable for every feast of the year Father Goody Preaches in Slay. After the Gospel had been sung, the celebrant came down to the altar rails and addressed those present in Croatiar, —the. language of Jugo-Slavia—and, notwithstanding the many visitors. at least two-thirds of the congregation followed the sermon with attention, thus more than compensating for the tired

nods oi many of the remaining onethird. The preacher took the text: "Revnost za dom tyoj izjeda me"— "Zeal for Thy House bath consumed me," and in applying it hoped that thee words could be used truly for the parishioners also, and that, as they had now a church, they would most zealously support it. Having re• lated a few of the salient facts of St. Jerome's life, the preacher went on to say that, having this fine saint for a patron, they should endeavour to imitate as ;.vell as honour him. Magnificent Address by Archbishop Clune. A s soon as Mass was over, h is Grace spoke to the congregation and convinced everyone, that although the tra-

ditional days of his eloquence are some twenty years ago, in actual fact he is still able to attain the same pinnacle of excellence. His Grace opened by surveying the past history of the Dalmatian people; how through hundreds of years they have had to fight successive invaders, from .Attila, with his Huns ,to the most terrible and recent oppression of the Turks; how each invading host's first ambition was to rob the Slav peoples of their Faith, and how they failed.

"All Bishops are required to make a report to the Holy Father every five years, and it is customary to present the report in person every 10 years. The report is really in the form of a questionaire. One of these questions, which reminds me of this gathering, is one I will have to answer in re gard to the activities of the societies of laymen. His Holiness requires to know what organisations exist in the diocese for the men, and whether there are any organisations that afford the men opportunities for meeting in a social atmosphere for the obiect of strengthening the Catholic Church. This function to-day will enable me to confirm what I have already written regarding the organisations for men. Much good must result from functions r.-here Catholic men are assembled together at regular intervals. ,His Holiness has at all times manifested very keen enthusiasm in the social life of his children of the Catholic Church throughout the wide world. "I am very much impressed with this function, which is a manifestation of your devoted loyalty. and I will not fail to mention to His Holiness this union of Catholic men in this grand district of Newcastle. I thank you one and all for the honour von have conferred on me to-day, and I wish You every blessing. I hope that on my return I will be given an opps,rtiinitY of attending a meeting in nrder that 7 can present to you the result of my visit to the Holy Pathes" Dr. Gleeson left by the Orama on the

Of interest to many people in, Western Australia was the marriage solemnised in St. Mary's Cathedral, Perth, by the Rev. Father Kelly, Administrator, on Saturday, April 7. Mr. J Taylor officiated at the organ, and Miss Kathleen Dunne rendered "Ave Maria" during the signing of the register. The bride was Eileen ,Antony, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. Herlihy, of Perth, and the bridegroom Alfred Michael, son of Mr. and Mrs. C Donelly, of Southern Cross. The Cathedral was decorated for the occasion, masses of pink gladioli and ferns being artistically arranged. The bride, who .was given away by her father, wore a beautiful trainer! gown of white lacquered lace, with suggestions of georgette. Intricately out. it showed a georgette yoke with silver beads in lattice design s-Aidrierl with rhinestones, the same beaded effect being carried out on tiny georgette ecaulettes set on long lace sleeves.

Each carried a basket of pink rcses and maidenhair fern, Baby Patsy Carter (cousin of the bride), who acted as train-bearer, was a miniature figure in white satin, her frock and head-dress being carried out in similar design to the flower girls. The bridegroom's gift to each of the smaller attendants was a gold bangle. Mr. Jack Kerrigan acted as best

After the ceremony about 120 guests were entertained h'.' Mr. and Mrs. P. Herlihy at the "Green Room," National House, which had a beautiful arrangement of multi-coloured roses, dahlias, z innias. and Michaelmas daisies, while the tables were centred with similar blooms, silver candlesticks, and pink c andles leant delicate effect to a delightful setting, which was daintily finished with the three-tiered cake.

Social Evening. After the meeting next Thursday evening we are going to have a social. The Club girls will put on a few items and the organiser for the evening will be Miss Jean Harford. We want al, the girls to come and make this night a success. Supper will be provided by members. Club Communion. Once again, and for the last time, the President wishes to remind the girls of the Club Communion. on Sunday. May 13. at 9 o'clock Mass, at St. Mary's Cathedral. After all these reminders, there will be no excuse for any member being absent. New Library Books. Last week eleven new books were added to the library. The library is a great addition to the Club. and is ever increasing in good books. Among the new books are some by the popular author Philip Gibbs, and also "The Squatter's Daughter." This wise ehoise of books is due to our librarian. Miss Laurentia Leddin. Club Dance. Miss Kath. Brosnan and Miss Nell McCormack were the hostesses for last Saturday night's dance. The traymobile is certainly a great help, and facilitates the serving of the supper. Miss Doreen D'Arcy's music helps in a large way to make our dances so successful. Dressmaking Class. Miss Wary Bridgeman still holds the dressmaking class of a Tuesday evening, on the second floor, Padbury Building, for Club members. All ought to avail themselves of this opportunity to learn dressmaking. as Miss Bridge' man offers her services free of charge Special.

( Note: Since this story happened, the prayers for the intentions of the Holy Father, required for gaining the plenary indulgences mentioned, have been reduced to One Pater, Ave and Gloria, instead of the flys here mentiooed.) This is a perfectly true story. Fox courtesy's sake I have altered one ox t wo incriminating details that do not aliect the real facts, because a story teller is not a reporter, and one must make a rule never to dig up incidents in the lives of one's friends or acquaintances, any more than one would take a trowel to their rose-trees and sell them to the local grocer. But I have the permission of this acquaint ance to put what she told me in this story, provided I disguised her !: rnplc tely. I don't really think she needs a great deal of disguise, because she delights in being true to a type which new exists all the world over—the young woman on her own. Well, it happened like this. I found myself in Piccadilly at a very late hour one very wet evening, with a heavy paicel of books, no umbrella, a headache and a considerable hunger The nearest restaurant turned out to he one of those basement affairs, all checked cloths and steel chairs and superior people with tiresome faces. (As I have said, I had a headache.) The menu told me that the food I had ordered would cost more than the cooking of these places ever warrants. ! took a gloomy view of life. I was quite right about the cooking. and to forget it, I took out one of my books aid began to read. I did not realise that anyore else had come to my table until she asked me for a light for her cigarette. As I gave it to her, she stared at me and said my name. My photo was in . he room of her cousin, Mrs. So-and-so. I wrote, didn't I? She was Davida Con' nought. I knew a lot about her, and said 'lc). She had a most amusing flat near Calierndish Square and two pet ducks named Baldwin and Ramsay, who NI ed on the roof and came down for dessert She grinned (and had a very nice grin).
