CATHOLIC LEADERSHIP His Lordship the Bishop of Lan gres Right Rev. Dr. Fillon), in an address to leaders of Catholic Action, has defined the qualities of leadership as follows:— The leader of Catholic Action must not be a partisan.
picion and scorn which, after twelve to fourteen years, has done nothing to allay the evil ambitions of mankind. To combat the secularism that destroys the soul is the primary duty of ll apostolate; to repudiate the errors ef economic liberalism, the offspring of materialistic individualism, is most necessary at the present time. To fight against immorality in every form has been the constant care of the Church, but to assert that no act in politics or in business can be good unless it is good also in morals, to teach our dislocated world that moral considerations must be given pride of place over all interests, whetl:er collective or national, needs a doctrinal courage that is far more persuasive than peevish recrimination. Nevertheless, for Catholics doctrine must mean life, not speculative thought. Hence a leader must not be an intellectua, l juggling with ideas, or a logican spinning arguments, but a vital soul, practising what he has learned, realising what he teaches and uniting thought to example.

they prefer a wise and invincible optimism. In order to succeed it is essential to believe in success. To this reasonable optimism the leader should unite a spirit of collaboration. When it is a question ol saving souls in all directions, the apostle does not entrench himself behind a barricade and fire to right and left. but rather, in imitation of Mgr. Affre, he mounts to the summit in order to plant the Cross of Christ and to give the command: cease fire. Where brothers are fighting, a mother will fling herself between them and implore her -hildren to shake hands. The youne leader must never allow himself to be sc, carried away by furious passions as to be reduced to the role of a mere "anti." When our rights are clearly violated we must protest energetically, but faced with the common good we must proclaim our adhesion with equal readiness. Nothing is gained by an unreasonable and persistent opposition under all circumstances. In the domain of industry the spirit of collaboration will inspire the leader to consider sympathetically measures favourable to the lawful demands of the worker, and to applaud the principle of a protective legislation while reserving the right to condemn, when necessary, any abuses. A certain 1-enevolence in judgment should be the first gesture of a Christian in collaboration with others: it will be in no way detrimental to his spirit of justice. In municipal life a Catholic should seek units` among members rather than the promotion of independent groups and in all cases he should urge Catholics to be united in heart and soul. To sum up: collaboration mean‘ practical charity And it is on this essential noint—the real power of our charity. —that the question will be solved as to whether Catholicism. by its o wn intrinsic virtue, can recapture the souls of the men of to-day. One conclusion seems clear: the Catholic leader. in imitation of his divine Master, must adopt evangelisation as his sole weapon of action. A fter sixty years of experience and discomfitures should we not have a greater confidence in a bold, straightforward apostolate than in ingeniotu• human devices? The great victory of Christ is to be known. and His Church can only triumph by spreading the light which the world so sorely needs. This apostolic method is slower and harder but far more sure than facile electoral successes And if the Catholic leader has to sacrifice the illusion of sweeping immediate triumphs, he will still arrive at appreciable results. Henceforth all Catholics must come out into the open, whether in the factory, on the land, or in the schools whether Catholic professors in the universities. Catholic civil servants. Christian trade-unionists or journalists on a free and independent press. This is a long list, but You will enable it to grow longer just in the measure in y.-hich You believe that truth is mightier than error and the love of God more powerful than hatred

Pope Thanks Journalists FOR SERVICES IN HOLY

tribute to the cause of truth and to the realisation of spiritual union in the w orld." Dr. R. J. Hoclel, president of the Foreign Press Association, presented an address to the Pope. On behali of his colleagues he expressed the hope that closer relations would soon be established between the Vatican asd foreign newspapers by the setting up of an official Press Bureau at the Vatican.
Mexican Bar Scores Ousting of Jurist The Academy of Legislation and Jurisprudence and the president of the Mexican Bar Association have protested against the action of the Mexican Supreme Court in asking for the resignation of Judge Antonio Alcocer, allegedly without proper procedure. The action was based on the assumption that he was showing partiality in reviewing cases involving the nationalisation of Church property.
HIS HOLINESS POPE PITTS XI. 1111111i
Journalists representing more than 5,000 newspapers were received by the Holy Father in special audience at the Vaticon last month, and received his personal thanks for their contribution to the success of the Holy Year. This is the first time in the history of the Papacy that a Pontiff has granted an audience to journalists in their professional capacity. Seventy-three correspondents—mernhers of the Foreign Press Association— were gathered in the Consistorial Hall Jews, Hindus, Protestants asd members of other religious bodies, besides Catholics, were present. and every shade of political opinion was represented. All of them kissed the Holy Father's ring, and to all of them he gave a blessing, and through them to their countries. "The Times" correspondent reports that His Holiness looked surprisingly well in view of the very strenuous duties the Holy Year imposed upon him. The Pope spoke to each correspondent individuallv. and also gave an address from the throne. His Holiness remarked to them that they are sometimes described as "loudspeakers." "But You are more than that,' he continued "because you think and use your brains. To report the thoughts and facts of the world is a great mission, and you ought to eon-

The Academy of Legislation and Jurisprudence made its protest in the form of a letter adressed to the Mexican Bar Association. Don Antonio Perez Verdia, president of the Bar Association, at a meeting of the association, said that the Alcocer case "is a very important point in the administration of justice in Mexico." that granting that twenty or more agents of the Public Ministry disagreed with the decision of Alcocer. this signified nothing with respect to ignorance, error or bad faith on the part of the magistrate "since it is known that the Public Ministry proceeds in accordancs with orders direct from the office of the Procurator General of the Republic." "The decision of the Supreme Court of Justice of the nation." Perez Verdia said. "creates a grave situation, for it was reached at the solicitation of the Procurator General of the Nation (expresident Emilio Portes Gil), without any process being instituted against ex magistrate Alcocer." It is this action of the Supreme Court in judging the guilt or innocence of a man without hearing both sides of the case, Perez Verdia maintains, that makes it imperative that the Bar Association intervene. Following the address of its president, the Bar Association named a committee. composed of the attorneys Luis Gonzalo Alfaro and Belisorio Becarra. to inform the Procurator General and the Supreme Court that it will formulate a project of opinion and will invite Lic. Antonio Alcocer to appear before a session of the Bar Association and personally inform the Bar of the incident.

In the words of a brother Dominican writer and preacher, the distinguished Father Vincent McNabb, OP., "Father Jarrett wore himself out for God." Father Bede Jarrett was born in 1881, the son of Colonel H. S. and Agnes (Delacour) Jarrett. He was educated at Stonyhurst, Hunter-Blairs Hall, Oxford, and in the Dominican Order. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1905. Father Jarrett was prior of Haverstock Hill from 1914 to 1916, and in the latter year was elected English Provincial of the Dominicans. Father Jerrett was continued ia office as Provincial for sixteen years, being elected for four successive terms. After r elinquishing the duties of Provincial, in 1932, Father Jarrett served as prior of Blackfriars, Oxford, and editor of "Blackfriars," the Dominican magazine. Father Jarrett was well known in the United States, and just a year ago gave a series of lectures in New York. He gave the Lenten sermons at the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes in New York in 1923. and in 1928 came from England to deliver the annual retreat for the Dominican Sisters at the convent in San Rafael, Cal. Father Jarrett was the author of "Medieval Socialism," - "St. Antonino and Medieval Economics." "Meditations for Lay Folk." "Living Temples." "The Relig• ous Life." "The English Dominicans."

At Derry musical festival, the English adjudicators were so impressed with the performances of Mrs. Horsford Derry, and Mr. S. Craig, Strabane, in the folk-song competition. that they felt it impossible to judge between them for first place. A coin was tossed and the lady won. She will keep the cup for the first half of the year, and Craig will then get it. The adjudicator said there was better singing in that than in any other class, perhaps because the songs of the soil better suited the competitors. The winner, sang of their own land, he added Great Jesuit Scholar Dead

In his preface to the new French mission year book, "Le Monde Missionnaire," His Eminence Cardinal Fumasoni-Biondi, Prefect of the Propaganda, lauds the growing spirit of cooperation between leaders of the different nations for mission education. Expressing his satisfaction that many nationalities had a part in editing this valuable reference book, His Eminence says: "When it is question of promoting the mission cause, it is requisite that there be a true spirit of comradeship between the workers of all institutes and all nations, but of particular importance is it that all those in (7hristian countries who by their pens or by other means are able to contribute to the diffusion of the mission idea, make contact with each other: the missions hove everything to gain by a union of their efforts. "The propagation of the Gospel is a task preeminently Catholic: neither national borders, nor oceans, nor distances, nor obstacles of any sort should lessen the spirit ot union and co-operation among those There is only one newspaper reader who have a part in this sublime enterprise."

Government Discrimination Against Catholic Schools. Charges of discrimination against the Catholic schools by the Government of Czecho-Slovakia - (Bohemia. Moravia, and Slovakia), are made by his Excellency the Bishop of Nitro and Presoy, Most Rev. Karol Kmetko, whose views are supported by a former Prime Minister of the Republic, who is a nonCatholic. Mr. V. Mvslivec, N.C.W.C. correspondent in Prague, states that Mgr. Kmetko made his declaration in "Narodni Listv," a Prague journal, and that Dr. Karol Kramer, the former Prime Minister, expressed his opinion in tho same publication, of which he is a part owner. Declaring that "co-operation between Czechs and Slovaks is possible only on the basis of the Catholic Faith." Mgr. Kmetko said that "the sooner the Czechs and Slovaks realise that they are equal, thee better things will be."

COTTESLOE Canonical Visitation of His Grace, Coadjutor Archbishop Prendiville S unday, March 13, dawned fresh and clear; everything was in favour of a large attendance at both Masses. His Grace, who said early Mass, complimented our parish priest, Rev. Father O'Neill, and the parishioners on the splendid manifestation of Faith that morning, when almost every member of the congregation approached the Altar Rails to receive Holy Communion from his hands. The Children of Mary were present in regalia in large numbers. and rendered appropriate hymns during the Mass. His Grace presided at the 10 o'clock Mass, which was celebrated by our parish priest, Rev. Father O'Neill. As at early Mass, every available seat was occupied, and many were forced to stand in the porch. The choir rendered St. Cecilia's Mass. Miss Shiela Slattery gave a delightful rendering ot C ooper's —Ave Maria." A fter Mass. IIis Grace preached an eloquent sermon on the Blessed Virgin, exhorting all to be loyal to her in that beautiful devotion. the Rosary. Referring to the spiritual welfare of the parish, His Grace stated that he felt quite satisfied that this was well looked after by Rev. Fathers O'Neill and Fahey. Proof of this was the wonderful demonstration of Faith at the 7 3' 0 Mass. Fie exhorted all to continue in this practice. His Grace then dealt with matters concerning the temporal welfare of the parish. He requested everybody to come to the aid of the parish priests in their efforts to reduce the heavy debt on the parish. It is. therefore, confidently expected that a large at tendance will be present at the meeting of parishioners, to be held on Sunday evening next. after devotions
In his reference to the good work being done in the parish by the Presentation Sisters. His Grace asked the parishioners to show their appreciation by attending the various entertainments being held in aid of the Presentation Convent Ball, and particularly the Ball itself, on Wednesday, May 30, in the Star of the Sea Hall. His Grace has kindly consented to receive the debutantes, who will be presented during the evening. The Presentation Convent Ball committee are confident of a very large attendance, and are making arrangements accordingly. Miss D'Arcy's orchestra has been engaged, and late taxis pass the door for Perth and Fremantle. A very enjoyable bridge evening was held on 9th. inst. at Mrs. T. Ahern's residence. It was a most successfed function, 33 tables being occupied. On Friday evening. 11th. inst.. the r hildren's Ball was held. It was an ottstanding success, and a credit to the organisers. A voting competition was held in connection with the Tennis Set and the Hiking Set. Voting was very brisk, and after a keen contest the re stilt was in favour of the Tennis Set. A Grand Concert. The Children of Mary are busy arranging for their concert, which is being held in the Star of the Sea Han on Friday evening next, May 25th. We have not heard of the full list of artists, but a few names have been Among those mentioned mentioned. are: Mrs. Clear, Miss Cullen. Messrs. Fred Burke, T. Power. and P. BunOthers have offered their sergert. vices. and we are assured of a splendid programme. As this is the final function before the Ball. we look forward to a crowded house. Keep Friday next free, and come and spend an enjoyable evening at the Star of the Sea Hall. Cottesloe.

We Must Make Faith Show itself in Business THE NEED FOR ACTION. The apathy of many Catholics and the need for a Catholic League of Social Justice—in face of the evils which menace the world—the danger of a new war, -the thousands of unemployed, the sacrificing of all things to profit-making and the heaping-up of riches—was strongly commented upon by Archbishop Williams in St. Chad's Cathedral, Birmingham, on Easter Monday morning. His Grace was addressing some two thousand men who had attended Mass and received Holy Communion as an act of thanksgiving for the nineteenth centenary of the institution of the Holy Eucharist, an act of reparation to Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament for man's ingratitude and an act of loyalty to the Holy Father. The world was arming again for war, said His Grace. who asked: What were Catholics doing about it? Were they supporting the League of Nationsr There were still thousands of unemployed. Capitalist employers were spending all their energies on reducing cost of production—in mergers—in wage cuts and in other schemes. Everything was being sacrificed to the making of profits, and money was tending more and more to gather into the hands of the few. The consequence was that the huge army of consumers was losing its power to purchase. What were Catholics doing about that? They wanted to find a way of distributing wealth in this country so that the poor man, the manual worker or the inferior clerk, would have the additional remuneration that he so urgently needed, and so that the rich man should no longer receive the heaped-up increment which he in no sense required and could not efficiently control. It was in that way that His Eminence, Cardinal Bourne, had expressed it in his Lenten Pastoral in 1918. There was a method of doing this; a really Christian remedy: it consisted in blending the interests of Capital and Labour. putting forward private ownership as widely as possible as the true basis of industrial reconstruction. That remedy was taught them by the Pope. Yet. how many of those present could say what was the Pope's verdict on modern economic lifs, or set forth intelligently his remedies? They had grown so accustomed in this country to being taught by the clergy that they did not thin)of teaching themselves still less of teaching others. In ,America there was a Catholic League of Social Justice, each member of which promised to inform himself on Catholic doctrine on social justice, to conform his life to its requirements and to do everything in his power to promote its principles That was a sort of Catholic activity that he would like to see for Catholic men living in an industrial centre like Birmingham: let their Faith show itself in 'business as in every other va of life. He would like to give them an instance: Russia, they knew. was Communist. anti-Christian. and persecuting priests in its attempts to destroy religion. Yet. this Government of theirs' made a treaty with Russia. Let Catholics act up to their principles—refuse to buy any goods they kne”.be Russian. refuse to have Russian timber or anything else they knew tsr be Russian. in their contracts. Theowould then be doing something t ) show that the" would rather not have money which was made by sin. But first. they must try to make themselves better men by going to the Sacraments regularly and frequently: then, the" must try to learn what the Holy Father taught on modern social and economic life and put it into practice in every phase of their lives.

The Church in Spain
415.111 is+Mrsi
lit ka.,1 I
The recent account of the Holy Week procession and ceremonies in Seville, at which at !east three Spanish Cabinet Ministers were present, recalls once again the peculiar paradoxical situation of the Church in Spain. To the world outside Spain has ever been the Catholic country par excellence, where everyone was a good, practising Catholic, and where the interests of the Church reigned supreme. Since the recent fall of the Monarchy and the advent of the second Republic, however, world opinion about Spain has undergone a radical change. A country which has been Catholic from the first century of Ch..-istianity, appears to have become bitterly anti-Catholic within the short space of one year. It has suddenly reacted in favour of a Republican Government, after a monarchical regime of fifteen hundred years, and it has unexpectedly raged with anger against religious education, where clergy and religious have exercised a widespread and clement influence for Such is the paradoxical change in Spanish affairs to centuries. the outside observer to-day. • According to a well known Spanish writer, the situation is neither as paradoxical nor as serious as it may seem. He maintains that Spain is still Catholic to the core, and that the present painful position of the Church is merely transitory. He traces the religious revolution to two main sources, the one internal, the other external, viz., the self-complacency in religious matters engendered by State establishment and subsidy, together with the undermining political influence which, in recent years, has been exercised by anti-Catholic propaganda. The first cause is true to the extent, that, in the cities, to be a Catholic, implied little more than to he born in Spain. and to have been baptised. Religious indifference had gradually permeated the lives of the intellectuals, and their pernicious influence began to make itself felt among the masses. On the other hand, while religion in the cities had been on the wane, the religious life in the country had been kept immune and entire, and the landed population had always endeavoured to live,, up to it as best they could. For that reason, competent Spanish observers consider that the heart of Spain has been little affected by modern irreligious propaganda. This fact has been borne out by the very latest reaction in favour of the Catholic Party in the recent elections. • • A s for the second source of the religious reformation, the political aspect has, unfortunately, only been too clearly authenticated and proved. Not indeed that the Church in Spain. as that of any other country. ever committed itself to any political party or regime. Although, of course, her loyalty to the existing monarchy was never doubted or debated. She had merely been fulfilling the injunctions of St. Paul, in paying due obedience to the temporal power, the same as she has since yielded to the Republic. Nevertheless, the fact that under the Monarchy State protection and subsidy had been lavishly accorded to it, tended, though most unfairly and unreasonably, to make it unpopular and suspect, when the new Republican Constitution was being framed. But it is evident, however, that the real reason for the persecution of the Church which followed was not politics on the part of the Church, but prejudice on behalf of the anti-clerical Republican leaders. With this end in view, they astutely poisoned the minds of ths populace against the Church, just as was previously done in the French and Portuguese Revolutions. Only bitter anti-clerical prejudice on the part of the legislators could explain the repressive measures of the late Republican Constitution. State protection, as well as financial support, was withdrawn. Freedom of worship and religious exercises were suspended. The absolute right of the Church to regulate her religious congregations was abrogated. and Church property was nationalised. and its alienation placed within the power of the State. Furthermore the right of religious to give free education was restricted, and in some cases denied altogether. Such are, in brief, the disabilities of the Church in Spain since the Republican Constitution was approved. The majority of Spanish Catholics were taken by surprise, or they would never have stood for such unjust legislation. Now that they commence to experience the effects of the revolutionary legislation, they are reacting strongly all over the :.ountry. Many Associations and Leagues have sprung up to defend the rights of the Church. Among the most important is that known as the "Friends of Education," which is a vast organisation. to secure Catholic teachers and to build Catholic schools. This Association has been able to provide substitutes for the suppressed religious teachers in a way favourable to the Catholic cause. They have taken charge of all the centres of education maintained by the religious, and have also• chosen the very religious as their private teachers, which is the only allowance made by the Constitution. In this way many continue to give education as before. Another organisation of transcendent importance is "Popular Action," which is spread throughout the country. It was fcrmed soon after the revolution, to oppose a solid front to the obnoxious work of the Republic. Its President, Senor Robles, is one of the most brilliant political orators of Spain. and the influence of his following has already made itself felt in the Cortes. Many other societies there are, but too numerous The only Catholic organisation recognised by the to- mention. Church as her own is "Catholic Action." organised in accordance with the ideals of Pope Pius XI. It has branches in ill the dioceses and parishes of the country, and its activities extend to all spheres of Catholic life.

Visito ...,: s. to .......--z From all this it is apparent that Catholic Spain is still a realit and not a legend. The Church, although enduring dire persecuY tion, is far from being submissive or inactive. Her activities hare on the contrary, multiplieil since the Revolution. The menace otl Communism and of fore.ign anti-Catholic propaganda, has hut dial. lenged the energies of Catholic Spain, and spurred it on to a prac. tical realisation of the value of its spiritual heritage. Spain, and Spanish writers themselves, testify to the unparallekti religious revival which has taken place during the last year. Tile persecution through which it is passing has but served to era of purify the heart and soul of Spain, and its value has been tested in As with France and Portugal—so the recent elections. with reformation religious is destined to have the same end. Spain—this ing. The unique success of the Catholic revival, in the - face of persecution, is but another example of the repetition of history In a few years time it is confidently maintained that Spain will onCe again resume her proud position as the pioneer of the Faith.
Living With the Church Read Our Calendar Weekly 20.—Pentecost Sunday. Red. DJauble first class, with privileged Octave. Mass Proper. Creed. Preface, "Communicantes" and "Hanc igitur" Proper.
May
Pentecost Sunday celebrates the Descent of the Holy Ghost upon the Apostles, which has brought about our vocation to the Faith, and our admission into the Church founded by Jesus Christ. Like Easter, Pentecost has a privileged octave. Red vestments are worn on the Feast day, and during the octave, in memory of the tongues of fire, and also to remind us that the Apostles are witnesses of the Gospel by the shedding of their blood. The beautiful sequence---Veni Sancti Spiritus"—"Come, 0 Holy Spirit"—is read in the Mass to-day and during the octave. The Epistle gives an account of the wonderful transformation wrought by the descent of the Holy Ghost. "And suddenly there came a sound from Heaven, as of a mighty wind coming . . . and there appeared to them parted tongues, as it were, of fire, and it sat upon every one of them, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak in divers tongues the wonderful works of God." The Gospel contains some of the last teaching of Our Lord, and the promise that with the coming of the Paraclete, all things will be made clear to them. "If anyone love me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and we will make our abode with him." "But the Paraclete, whom the Father will send you, he will teach you all things and bring all things to your mind, whatsoever I shall have said to you." This refers to the gift of wisdom—which is commemorated to-day as the first of the Seven Gifts of the Holy Ghost. But it is not on the tApostles only that Christ wished to send the Holy Ghost: the mystery we now commemorate is renewed invisibly, but not less really, in the soul of each Christian who prepares himself to receive the grace of God. As the Holy Ghost infused knowledge into the minds of the Apostles. so He infuses in us the gift of faith and wisdom, and all the saints acknowledge that they learned more by prayerrul union with God than by their labours and research. The Holy Ghost also sanctifies our hearts. This was signified to the Apostles by the tongues of fire. Hitherto they had been imperfect. worldly, and ambitious. Now they are interested in nothing save the interests of the Master. So. too, with Christians. In mans- things they all offend, hut the Holy Ghost is ready to perfect the soul ;7. the Apostle. they are prenared to admit him. "Come. 0 Holy Ghost, replenish the hearts of the faithful, -nd enkindle within them the fire of thy divine love"—reoresentq the prayer c .f the Church during Pentecost.

Over 200 members were present, and were shown around the grounds and buildings by Rev. Brother Hylanu, the Superior.

The Council of the Protestant Truth Society, London, has sent to the Prime Minister of England (Mr. Ramsay McDonald) and all members of the House of Commons, a protest against the appointment of a new Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Vatican, claiming that it infringes the provisions of the Bill of Rights, and urging the Government to cancel the departmental orders recently issued for salutes by the Navy to Nuncios and other diplomatic agents of the Pope. The Council of the P.T.S. is very mindful of the honours paid by the nations to the one-time "Prisoner of the Vatican" to-day, and it is stirred to the depths of its soul because 'his temporal sovereignity is recognised. But what is the P.T.S. doing to stem the nauseous stream of indecency that is swelling in its flow through the social life and literature of the country? What is it doing to lessen the growth of atheism among the working people; has it filled the empty benches of the National Church on Sun. clays; is it making England more religious with its "Truth"? Its worry is the Papacy, and it is vulgar enough to show its very bad temper. The Very Rev. P. Clery. who has been appointed Commissary-General of the Carmelite Order in this country, is a native of Limerick, Ireland. He is in his 37th. Year. and is a gifted preacher. He was ordained in Rome in 1920, and during the 14 years of his priesthood he has held exalted offices in his Order. In 1932. Father Clery was appointed Prior of the Carmelite House at Sittingbourne. Kent. being the first Carmelite Prior in England since the Reformation. He will leave for Ans. traliae this month. Father Clery's brother, the late Father Cr Clery, 0.Carm.. took ill on board ship whilst proceeding to Australia soon after his ordination some years ago. and die-1 at Adelaide after a brief illness.

McNulty (Liverpool), a headmaster; Father E. Garrett (Liverpool), an architect; and Father M. Kelleher ( Birmingham), a civil servant. Apologists often compare the Church to-day with that of Apostolic times, showing how unchanged it has remained. Sure ly, in the variety ot callings from which labourers in the vineyard are still chosen there is a striking illustration of this fact. The death took place on Holy Thurs. day, after eight days illness, of the Rev. Henry Asnew, assistant priest at St. Columba's, Edinburgh. A native of Maghera, Co. Down, and educated at the Irish College, Rome, where he was ordained in 1932, Father Asnew had been at St. t:olumba's since September last.

Miss Cahill, daughter of the late Patrick K. Cahill, of Dublin, who was optician to the Pope, was received in special audience by the Holy Father last month. She presented to His Holiness two pairs of spectacles. The glasses were mounted in mother of pearl and were of very fine workmanship. The Holy Father gave Miss Cahill a large silver medal as a token o f his appreciation. Irritated by their failure to destroy religion, the members of the Society of the Militant Godless carried on an campaign intensive anti-religious throughout Russia from Good Friday to Easter Sunday. An army of men, women and children, stated to number a million, was enlisted to spy on and report all who went to church or observed any of the traditional Holy Week and taster customs. Anti-religious flags, posters and leaflets were in evidence, and temporary statues of notorious atheists were set up in public places for admiration. It is report. ed that thos?, reported by the spies will be deprived of their ioor cards. For the first time in more than a decade Mass was celebrated in Moscow on Easter Sunday by an American priest. Rev. Leopold Braun. who arrived over a month ago for permanent pastoral work in the Soviet capital. celebrated the Mass at the French Church of St. Louis of France.

East Perth's First Defeat —East Fremantle's Easy Win--A nothcr Victory to Swans —Cardinals Too Strong for Monts An All-Rounder. One of the best all-round sportsmen in Western Australia is Jim Ditchburn, South Fremantle's rugged, solidly built follower. Perhaps Ditchburn is better known to enthusiasts of the summer game, as a solid opening batsman of the barn-door type, and a fast ms!dium bowler of distinct promise. His cricket prowess won him a place in the State side which toured the Eastern States earlier in the year Ditchburn played his usual solid game on Saturday, and wcrked unceasingly in the last quarter to avert defeat, but he received poor support from his team mates.
TO-DAY'S GAMES West Perth v. East Fremantle. at Leeclerville. Subiaco v Claremont-Cottesloe, at Subiaco. South Fremantle v. East Perth. at Fremantle. Victoria Park v. Swan Districts, at W.A.C.A. A s can be seen by a glance at the above, to-day's games are a very attractive set. Winners are hard to pick. but in my opinion the following should bring home the bacon: East Fremantle. Subiaco, East Perth, and Victoria Park, A Brilliant Defender. -Bub- Jarvis. East Fremantle's popular captain and coach, was the best man on the ground at Subiaco on Saturday. Jarvis is the most dependable half-back in the State at present, and it is on few occasions that he does not pull his weight. Sure in the air, an excellent kick. and seldom beaten on the ground. Jarvis is an ideal type of footballer. and is equally at home. whether the day be wet or fine. Tom Outridge. when discussing great games and great players a couple of years ago, said that he found it hardest to individualise amongst the hack men. He mentioned the names of such champions as Harold Boyd, "Nash\-- Brentnall Jim Craig. Jimmy Gosnell. Billy Paul. Allen Shepherd. and countless pthers. But he singled out one name, that of "Bub- Jarvis. and stated that he had not seen a better man in action in this or an" other State. and all keen followers of the game in W.A. will surely echo his words.

In the match between last year's Premiers and Runners-up. East Fremantle and Subiaco, the former side were naturally favourites.

The final scores were: East Fremantle, 18.15: Subiaco, 5.7.

For the Young Players SOME HINTS. 1. Never let your man get in front of You. If you do he will meet the ball first and you Will be chasing him all through the match. 2. Get off the mark quickly. Don't wait until the ball comes to you; you have to meet the ball. Remember it is pace that staggers your opponent. 3. Don't think of bouncing the ball a s soon as you get it. Think of k:ck• ing it. 4. Don't kick wildly. Always tri to kick to a man. Remember the lower you kick the less time it takes for the ball to go where you want it. 5. Never turn your back on the ball and never hug the ball when You get a mark. Passing must be qu;ck and accurate to be effective. ( To be Continued Next Week. ) THE SPIRIT OF SPORT. "Sport, which still keeps the flag of idealism flying, is one of the saving graces of the world of this moment, with its spirit of rules kept and regard for the adversary whether the fight is going for or against. When. if ever. the fair spirit of sport reigns over inter-national affairs, the cat force which rules there now will shrink away and human life emerges for the first time from the jungle." —John Galsworthy.

Land's End to John 0' Groats What's this new rceord cans "Oppi-.;" r,f the cycle is afte. The time honoured Land's End to John 0' Groats' record is the most important in England. and the holder is generally regarded as the world's FC10 champion. Hubert Opperman, who will attack this record in July. must commence florn the south door of the John o' Gloats' Hotel. In this particular record attempt, it is set out that no ferries be used, while the fractien of a minute is counted as a whole The distance is 839 miles. and the nresent holder is Jack Rossiter, of England, who in 1929 did the iournev in 61 hours 22 minutes. That these figures are only caaable of being bettered hie minutes is the opinion of Hubert Onperman himself. As far hack as 11103 C. J. Mather of England. established a record of 5 days 5 hours 12 minlites So it may be seen how the early effort has been improved upon. Onperman's remarkable tinpare'l record fit him admirably for this big iob. Scores of men have essayed the inuniev. but over a long period from 1903 to 190R, only seven have succeeded in having their names placed en the record sheets of the Roads' Rerori!: sociation.
INTERSTATE NEWS Bigotry to-day prevents many inquiring minds from studying the Catholic Faith, but these minds are enquiring, and are being filled with answers from Agnosticism, Atheism, Communism, and Modernism, said His Lordship the Bishop of Townsville ( Right Rev. Dr. McGuire, D.D.), in an address on Catholic Action at the quarterly meeting of the St. Vincent de "As the heresies unitPaul Society. ed in only one thing, devastation of Catholic Truth.- added His Lordship, "so do these various issues denounce it.

The old church was built in tears with anxiety about the future, and with forebodings that its pews would be empty; that it would be a memorial of failure and an extravagance, but the old church did its work well: it was filled and filled again As the years palsed it each Sunday. began to show that it was not capable of doing the work for which it .was erected. The Very Rev. Father King, C.

CORNERITES,--= MY the month of May is So much of gone, and I. have been enlarging about instead of doing what lithe "Fivers add praise to the name. tle I could to Lady. Blessed of Our Now I have a scruple, and as you guess what gave it to me, could never Travelling to Blanket I will tell you. night, my musical sense Town the other band. was roused by the strains of wondering why the air had I listened, such a familiar sound. as I knew the band was that of the Salvation Army, but after a few more minutes of listening I found the melody was one belonging to the words of a favourite hymn to Ow Lady: "0 Marv, my Mother, most lovely, most mild, Look down upon me. your weak lowly child: From the land of my exile I call upon thee; Then Mary, my Mother, look kindly on me." And there was the music being played at the corner of some street by those who knew Her not, or at least who are not privileged to know and appreciate Her as we Catholics do. Yet, the Lord uses queer instruments when He wants to get things done, and though the Salvation Army band players had no intention of raising anyone's heart to the Mother of God, they not only raised mine, but made me think rather soberly on exactly what extra honour I was trying to show Her during this her own special month.

The little lamp still burns brightly between 11 and 12 o'clock. so surely this 2nd. Edition of yours is wiped out. (It is.)

WITH SAINT AND SAGE. When Mary prays, the hour of God's mercy strikes any time of day or night. No one is more contented in the world than he who despises all its good, and desires only God. W ithout prayers we have neither light nor strength to advance in the way whieh leads to God. We ought to be on our guard against the excuses of our body; generally under pretence of weakness, it wishes to escape work. Jesus Christ loved us more than his honour, more than His rIpose, more than his life, since He sacrificed everything to His love. He who resigns the world is in constant possessions of a serene mind, but he who follows its pleasures often meets with nothing hut remorse and confusion. We may form a powerful league and be allied with many cities and great personages; but what good will it be if we are not united to God? Many rocks are to be found in the stormy sea of life, and we shall -make shipwreck on them unless we are directed by the safe wind of obedience. Each time one remembers to be kind one makes another reach towards the height of real kindliness. It is true that kindliness never loses its reward. Do not get discouraged because people laugh at you and ridicule you when you are .trying to do right. Every successful man has had the same ex• perience: in fact, it seems to be one of the prices we have to pay for suecess. LIFE'S REAL JOYS. God understands how to make happy The unbeliever those who love Him. does not understand that there can be people to whom the name of Jesus is music to the ears or honey to the lips. He does not understand that the joy of one devout Holy Communion can be greater than the most exquisite jollity It is the poor world can provide. nonsense to him when any one speaks of the Divine Lover in our tabernacles, Whose love is more satisfying than that of brother or bride. He does not know that there is on earth a fair city, the City of God. the Catholic Church. in which people can be happy without the garish flickering lights of modern amusements. in which there are other sources of joy than the artificiality of commercialised He has 'missed the entertainments. joy of life, however many attempts at asiusement he may have made. For glorious but innocent laughter, laughter like the sunshine on a rippling brook, one must come to the company of the children of God. who sing that God is good. that God is in His heayen and that all is well on earth —Re". Dr. J. P. Arendren. OUR MODEL. The heart of Mary is the heart that rnnst resembles the Heart of Christ. To ,study her heart and try to model our lives upon it will lead us infallibly to a closer union of love with the Sacred Heart of Jesus.—Mother Mary Philip, T B .V.M. ----SPIRIT VERSUS MATTER. Life is a struggle. Our lower faculties tend lustily towards pleasure. whilst the higher .ones are drawn towards moral good. Often conflict goes on between these; what pleases us is not always morally good. and to establish order reason must fight hostile tendencies and actually conquer them. This is the fight of the spirit against the flesh, of the will against passion. This struggle is at times hard and painjust as in the spring time of ful. the rear the sap rises up within plants. so at times violent impulses towards pleasure rise in the sensitive part of -yew eer souls.

MOTHER-LOVE. :A mother's work is never done, however long the day. for after we have had our fun she puts our things away. She tidies up the live-long day, she soothes each troubled heart, and cheers us when we're down and out, and always takes our part. She listens to e.ir childish woes, she dries our childish tears. She stands a fortress fine and strong against our hurts and fears. She gives herself frnm morn till night, she never counts the cost. Her life is full of victories, no battle's ever lost. No task is greater than her heart, no sin beyond her prayer, no wayward child beyond her ken: no hurt beyond her care. For Mother's work is never done, she's always on the go. She gives because she loves to give—that's Mother-love, YOU know Jean Morton. THE RIGHT DISPOSITION. Man is the artificer of his own happiness. Let him beware how he complains of the disposition of circumstances. for it is his own disposition he blames. If this is sour, or that rough, or the other steep. let him think if it he not his work: if his looks curdle all hearts let him not complain of a sour reception: if he hobble in his gait let him not grumble at the roughness of the way; if he is weak in the knees let him not call the hill steep. THE BASIS OF LOVE. There is nothing like the merriment of the Children of God. They are happy because they are inwardly at rest. They are at one with the God Who made them, and the God Who made them is the God Who made all the world and Who holds it in the hollow of His hands. Therefore, an immense security holds them and the whole world is friendly towards them. Possibly fate is hard on them, fellow men are cruel to them, but behind all is the dear face of God, and the allembracing love of 1-us fatherhood. Religious people are happy because they are engaged in a love affair. People in love walk on air, says the pro verb. Now the Christian religion begins by saving: "God so loved the world," and holding up a Crucifix before the eves of the people, it asks: Hath any one greater love than He Who gives His life for His friends?. Come and see how loving, how kind, how sweet is the Lord! Unbelievers try to make out that we Christians are a cold and calculating crew. anxiously scheming to escape hell, to make for safety and to secure a place in heaven, as if religion core sisted of nothing else than trying to save your skin for eternity. Of the appeal of Bethlehem, Nazareth. Gethsemane and Golgotha to the human heart, the unbeliever knows nothing Of our love for our Catholic home, he has not the remotset conception. We have pors ineffable he does not dream of.—Rev. Dr. Arenhzen. YOUR STOVE REPAIRED AS NEW, WESTERN STOVE CO., 256 WELLINGTTON STREET (Om Perth Hospital). P ir BR307.

Information for Visitors. The Directot of the Government Tourist Bureau (Mr. S. J. Hayward) advised on Saturday last that a number of inquiries had reached the bureau from Victorian-born residents of Westtern Australia who were under the impression that special excursion fares to Melbourne have been arranged for such persons in connexion with the Victorian and Melbourne centenary celebrations. That impression was quite wrong, as no special rates has been fixed for persons who were born in Victoria. The interstate shipping companito did not contemplate providing any reduction in the steamer fares during the period of those celebrations, but special excursions by rail had been arranged The fares by rail from Perth to Melbourne would be at holiday excursion rates from October 1, 1934, until Janu ary, 1, 1935, both dates inclusive. Special excursion fares at about two-thirds of the ordinary fares would also be available by all trains on suitable dates to synchronise with the Royal visit to Melbourne, the finish of the MacRobertson international air race, and the Melbourne Cup. The holiday excursion tickets would he available for return within three months of the date of issue, and the special excels sion tickets for one month only. Details of the fares were available at the Tourist Bureau, Perth, and also at the branch Fremantle and Kalgoorlie offices of the bureau. An official accommodation bureau, in connexion with the celebrations had been opened at 435 Collins-street, Melbourne, and persons desirous of booking accommodation were invited to write to this bureau for full details. Inspection and classification of the van. ous forms of accommodation was being undertaken by the bureau, and this should be a guarantee of satisfaction to all parties. Supplies of printed matter had been received by the Tourist Bureau in Perth and was now available for distribution to those interested. With the arrival in Melbourne of Prince Henry. on October 18, 1934, the centerary celebrations would commence, and a programme of events had been asranged to continue until January. 1935. It was anticipated that a large number of West Australian residents would go to Victoria for the celebrations, and Mr. Hayward expressed the hope that they would act as ambassadors for this State during their stay in Victoria, and that they would use their best endeavours to induce Eastern States residents and overseas visitors to come to Ws,osse Aestralia

"Veil, vot about it?" inquired Mr. "Vill you tell me vot my Eikstein. account vos at this time last year? Tell me that."

Cohen and Macpherson were matched, and at the sixth the latter drove a beautiful ball straight up the fairway Cohen followed, but went into the rough. After smiting about wildly he managed to get clear. "Hoo many?" queried the Scotsman. "Three," replied Cohen. "Why, I counted ten maser," roared Mac. "Vas it my fault if I had to kill a grass snake?" asked the resourceful Cohen. A lift-box- in one of the big stores hated to be asked needlw questions. One day a fussy old lady entered the lift. "Don't vou ever feel sick, going up and down in this lift all day?" she a sked. " Yes, ma'am," said the boy. "Is it the motion going up?" "No, ma'am." "Is it the motion going down?" "No. ma'am." "Is it the stopping that does it?" "No, ma'am.' "Then. what is it?" "Answering questions, ma'am." it was time for him to leave, but it was raining cats and dogs. "You can't go home in this. Stay the night. George." she urged. "I'll just go and get the spare room ready." When she returned, George was missing. An hour later came a knock at the door—and in walked George, soaked to the skin, with a parcel under his arm. "I've been home to get my pyjamas!" he said. T wo actors were discussing themselves over a friendly drink. "I hear," remarked one. "that you received quite an ovation at the the. atre last night." "Yes." was the reply. "but some of the ova was stale."
