"No Procession--No Congress" ARCHBISHOP MANNIX'S REPLY TO SECTARIANISM

The Archbishop of Melbourne, at adequate and unsuitable—an altar erected there would need to be at least the opening of the Training House of 20 feet high in order to be visible down the Little Company of Our Lady, at Bourke-street—and so the committee Surrey Hills, recently, referred to the National Eucharistic Congress, to be is looking for a longer route and a betheld next December, and warned the ter site for the Benediction round sectarian opposition that its objection about the neighbourhood of the Caagainst the procession, if successful thedral.

The Holy Hour in St. Peter's

It is not often that one is vouchsafed a vision. For the general run of us such things are among the category of the "possibila'' (which often means the most improbable things the human mind can conceive!), Not merely do we not receive visions, but We don't even expect to do so, Nevertheless, I think I have seen a vision— a sPlendid one, too, envisaging in its spiritual content that the reality whose grandeur the ancient seers of Israel have for us so startlingly They pictured saw the shadow: we, the reality. And this vision was granted us here in Rome on March 15, in the Basilica of S t. Peter, h our in when we celebrated the Holy thanksgiving for the institution of the Christian priesthood.

It was the gathering of the priestly clans. • One of the most ingenuous insults thoughtless non-Cathloics cast in our teeth in seasons of bad temper is that the Catholic Church is priest-ridden (as if the Church were a jaded horse loaded with extraneous riders whose main object is to make it carry them as far as possible and as comfortably as possible. beforei t dropped dead of e xhaustion).

The Pope's View of Irish Schools A tribute paid by the Pope to the Catholic educational system in Ireland was quoted by the Bishop of Ossory, Most .Rev. Dr. Collier, when he spoke after a concert given by pupils of the Loreto Convent, Kilkenny. His Lordship, who was in Rome last March with the Catholic Boy Scouts' pilgrimage, said that during his audience with the Holy Father he first asked about the priests, naturally, as he called them his sons; then about the schools and nuns and teachers and the spirit of piety in the schools. They had in Ireland the most perfect system of Catholic education in the world, a system that delighted the Pope and His Holiness told him that he was always happy about the education of the Catholics of Ireland owing to their system of education: Catholic schools under Catholic control, with Catholic teachers, and religion up to the very topmost part of the programme. • THE STAPLETON MS. ,Rev. Miles Ronan, M.R.I.A., Dun Laoghaire, the historian and antiquarian, visited Silvermines, Co. Tipperary, and inspected the valuable MS. in the possessioin of the Stapleton family. He was very much impressed by the wealth of matter and its historical importance. Father Ronan says . that four missing pages are a very great loss. (Note.

Catholic News From Everywhere The Rev. William J. Gorman, chaplain of the Chicago tire department, recently added another heroic deed to the list of actions that have helped to endear him to the fire fighters. Answering an alarm in near zero weather, Father Gorman learned that an aged man was on the second floor of the burning building. He dashed through the smoke, shattered glass in a locked door, and although his hands were severely cut, carried the man to safety. Monsignor d'Herbigny, who has been in ill-health, tendered his resignation of the position of President of the Pontifical Commission for Russia, and the Pope has graciously acceeded to his request for relief from the duties of his responsible office. For the first time figures -are available concerning the religious affiliations of the population of Jugo-Slavia, according to the census taken in 1931. That State harbours an extraordinary mixture of confessions, their number being 30 in all. The movement for defection to Old-Catholicism, initiated for political reasons 15 Years ago, has resulted in only 7,273 affiliations. The strongest confessional group is formed by the adherents of the Greek-Oriental Church, numbering 6,785,401. Next come the 5,217,847 Catholics of the Roman Rite, and the Mohammedans, numbering 1,561,166. The Jews are split into three different denominations: Sephardic. Ashkenasic, and Orthodox Israelites.

It is entitled "Saint Cecilia," and depicts the martyrdom of the Saint. ,At the Rome Opera House it has made a very suecessful debut. The Pope has expressed great interest in the production. The suggestion has been made to His Holines sthat the singers and orchestra from the Opera House shoud give a private performance in the Vatican Should the Pope consent, the opera will be given in oratorio form There will be no acting, and the singers will he dressed in black.

The "Box Office." an organ of the motion picture industry, is warning exhibitors that the Catholic Church is convinced that, appeal to the producers against objectionable films is useless, previous appeals having had little or no effect, and that the Church "is determined to strike the trade where it will hurt most, the box office. When one considers the close association of the Cathoic Church with the daily lives of its members." says the "Box Office " -one understands the import of a church edict.

PERTH C.Y.M.S

The co-operation oi the Catholic press in eradicating vicious films from Indian cinema houses has been welceinee1 by Mr. Baijnath Bajoria, prominent non-Christian leader of the Marwari Association in Calcutta. He has suggested closer relation between non-Christians and Catholic associations to remedy moral evils which are repugnant to all communities. -There can be no question that Indians take not only their impressions of Western civilisation from the cinema,' said Mr. Barjoria, "but many also take their impression of Christian morality from the cinema. Western films discredit Chrisianity in the eyes of the people of India and it is a definite duty for Catholics to ally themselves with other public bodies which are working to cleanse cinema houses of this great evil." A similar condemnation has come from another non-Christian President Rai Bahadur Rarndev Chokhani, of Marwari Association. who denounced many films as revolting to Indian ideas of decency and morality. He declared that "the industry must not be allowed prosper at the expense of our boys and girls." Both men attacked the indecent posters exposed in prominent places to advertise films. More than two years ago, Lord Irwin, former Viceroy of India. in an address delivered in L-ondon, said that the white man had lost great prestige in the East., and especially in India, besause of indecent films from Europe and Arn ica. More recently, a prominent Indian after viewing P. foreign film, remarked: "I am an Indian, I suppose what von white people would call a nigger. I am unacquainted with other sides of Western civilisation, but what I have seen to-night and on numerous other occasions in places such as these, convinces me that the ordinary middle classes of England and America are the most debased and immoral cretins any race or nation has ever produced."

In the Foreign Mission Field

(Fides SerViee to "The Record.") Very Rev. Father John Forest Hogan, of the English ProvinsT of Friars Minor, has been named Superior of the Independent Mission of Bellary, India, in a decree of the Sacred Congregation of Propaganda, April 20, 1934. Blessed Charles Luanga, one of the Uganda Martyrs, has been selected by the Holy Father to be Patron of Catholic Youth and Catholic Action in the missions of Africa. The decision is given in a decree of the Sacred Congregation of Rites. King Mwanga, of Uganda, 'urged by enemies of the Catholics, was stirred to begin a persecution in 1886. Joseph Mkasa, chief of the royal pages, was the proto-martyr, while on May 26, 1886, 30 newly baptised Catholics, among whom were other pages of the court, including young Charles Luanga, were burnt to death for the faith. a

The Canadian Dominicans of Hakodate are feeding daily 1.000 victims of the recent great fire, which destroyed 27.000 houses in Hakodate, causing the death of 2,000 and leaving 100,000 homeless in the bitter cold of northern Japan. While the property of the mission was not destroyed, the greater part of the Catholics suffered heavily. Some 400 lost their homes, while three were killed and a number of children of Christians were lost in the confusion. The missionaries organised relief work immediately, and will continue to give aid as long as the funds hold out.

The cross will be of reinforced concrete, will be 50 feet high. and visible for several Iniles at sea On the occasion of the laying of the corner stone, a telegram from the Vatican addressed to the Bishop conveyed to the Catholics of Mangalore the Blessing of the floiy Fa'ther and his congratulations on their initiative and generosity.

B. SHAW IN NEW ZEALAlit

George Bernard Shaw has come and gone. He was invited to talk, and he talked freely. He was asked for opinions, and he gave them candidly. He did not, as many visitors do, tell the people of New Zealand that he was amazed at their culture, progress, common sense, intelligence, and manners. Nor did he make the usual remark that the New Zeaalnd daily papers were the world's best! G. B. S. was just G. B. S. He came, he saw, and he flattered not. And lo! there followed a flood of letters, anonymous and otherwise, in the daily press reviling him and scoffing at him —because he did not say what he was One admirer wrote expected to say. to tell him to go and shave himself. Another said he ought to change his name to Pshaw! Others suggested that he was lacking in sanity or courtesy, or And almost universally, what not! the newspapers and their correspondents completely missed the isoint in his remarks. If he could but read the papers published after the hour of his departure. what a "kick" he would get out of it all. A few of the points that please not may be mentioned. The farmers at New Zealand are getting less than fourpence a gallon for their milk now, through butter and cheese. Yet it is sold in cities for four and five pence a quart! Poor people cannot buy it, and the .farrners are losing money. Shaw said he did not like that at all. Why should not there be free milk for the poor children, for poor men, for poor families? Then the mob roar"What, ask the farmers to ined. crease their losses by giving milk away for nothing! The man is mad." Of course. Shaw meant nothing of the sort. He meant that the Government could, being fair and intelligcnt. help the farmers and the com• munitv by—imitating de Valera. In Ireland the Government buys milk at a fair price--not fivepence a quart— and feeds the hungry with it. Without mentioning de Valera, Shaw's advice was "Go and do likewise." Again, he told the politicians to cut out all the argument about free trade and protection tariffs, and to foster deserving industries by a policy of reserved markets Once more he is followine• de Valera. but does not say so.

"Thai's a Good Girl" Jack Buchanan at Theatre Royal. Jach Buchanan need be no more than characteristic to please his admirers, but in "That's a Good Girl • he has fortified himself with an unusual number of really good "gags." His adventures -as a harassed fellow accidently rushed into the chorus of an opera are as funny as anything he has ever clone. He finds himself among,t a crowd of Cromwellian soldiery, marching and counter-marching, losing his gloves ,and hooking everything in halberd.

"A splendid collection of practical hints, counsels, and directions for a happy marriage." is the Bishop of Cleveland's description of "How to Get Married,- a collection of articles and musings by the Rev. John A. Schmitt, an American priest. The title, as the author points out in the foreground, was chosen for the purpose of attracting attention and every aspect of marriage from the days of courtship to the anniversary of the wedding and the obligations imposed by parenthood is candidly discussed. Marriage is to Father Schmitt a woman's vocation and a sacrament of the Catholic Church. He is concerned not merely with the temporal happiness of the contracting parties. but also with the spiritual significance of the union. He disapproves of "mixed" marriages, for many reasons, including the commonsense one that two people who are separated by anything so vital as religious convictions can never be united in real happiness.

The Embassy Cabaret should present a delightful picture on June 6, when the Catholic Tennis Association hold their annual ball. It is whispered that busy fingers are at work fashioning evening dresses, so the hall is sure to be crowded with a happy and beauttfully-dressed throng. D'Arcy's orchestra is always sure to draw a crowd on its own account, therefore, the Clontarf Annual Ball. listed for August 8, in the Y.A.L.

In these days when the prize is to the fittest, it is pleasing to find a woman. who, in the face of almost insurmountable difAnd what ficulties, can win through. one woman can do, surely others can do. This young woman belongs to our sister Dominion ,New Zealand. and we heartily congratulate her native land. But it is not only in aviation that women are distinguishing themselves, for they are taking high places in all the professions, be it law, medicine, science. etc. It will take many more years to break down centuries-old prejudices against women, but there is certainly a more tolerant view taken of their activities now than was the case even a decade ago. In London there is a thoroughly upto-date women's hospital, named after its foundress, Elizabeth Garrett Anderson'. She had the distinction of being the first woman to have her name placed on the British Medical Register, with an English diploma. It was only after repeated rebuffs—so great was the objection to women practising medicine--that she found an examining body—the Society of Apothecaries— which would permit her to complete her studies. The hospital which hears her name is staffed solely by women, and the extent of their work may he gauged by the fact that in one year 2,000 women and children received treatment as in-patients, while the number of out-patients treated numbered 50.000. • The special sessions of the Oberammergau Passion Play, to mark the third centenary of its institution, took place during the months of Jub,,-. August and September of this year. Those who intend visiting Bavaria in order to see it should book early, as outgoing boats are leaving Fremantle as "full ships.' It is quite possible, too, to see Oberammergau, cross from there to London, and join up with one of the specially-arranged tours being made t. Buenos Aires in the Argentine, South America. where this year's International Eucharistic Congress is being held ,in October. As accommodation in that far-off city is sure to he heavily taxed, the shipping companies are allowing passengers to make the boats their headquarters for the days of the Congress. However, it would be advisable to make the necessary reservations for travel and accommodation on the whole trip through a tourist agency as it saves much time and expense in the end. Just at present people are busy in their gardens, as the rains have softened the ground and made it easy to dig. Many had the foresight to grow their seedlings in boxes, and now they are planting them out. The short days seem much tco short for all the work that needs to be done. Most parents gave their children a plot for their very own, and what an interest they take in it But children are impatient beings. and often we see them scraping away the soil to see if the seeds are germinating, or if the cuttings are rooting. Well, we can't blame them, for, were we not the same

at their age? Children, however, should be taught to have a definite object in view when growing flowers, and what more beautiful then to adorn the altar of Our Lord. Lessors learned in childhood are not forgotten, so surely the child who learns early to do something worthy, will carry the lesson with him through life.

Irish National Foresters R egulations for future irish national step dancing competitions have been drawn up and adopted by the society. These will ensure the standard of Irish step dancing being raised to a high level by reason of the fact that the judges appointed may only award a prize where Irish steps and correct deportment are observed. The fantastic leg movements, swaying of the 1..;o..dy and windmill performances with the arms, which have been introduced by some dancers in recent years, being entirely foreign to Irish step dancing, is wholly distasteful to Irishmen and those who have a knowledge of correct standards in these matters. These regulations and conditions are being got up in pamphlet form, and will be available to teachers and intending competitors. Monster Picnic and Sports. This function will be an annual fixture, organised as a public celebration of St. Patrick's Day. Initial arrangements are already in hand for 1935, and the following will be the programme for Irish step dancing competitions: Championships.—Irish Jig: (a) Under 15 years; (b) over 15 years. Irish Hornpipe: (a) Under 15 years; (b) over 15 years. Irish Reel: (a) Under 15 years; (b) over 15 years. Eight. Hand Irish Reel: (a) Under 15 years; (b), over 15 years.

Russia and the Church THE FAILURE OF COMMUNISM. There are few sane thinking people nowadays who fail to recognise the utter failure of the theories of Marx and Stalin and Lenin, as they prevail in the Soviet Russia of to-day. Under the name of Communism, it has laid claim to the traditional practice of the early Christians, as well as that of such modern Communistic institutions, as are known to us, by the name of Religious Orders. But the repudiation of their claim shows clearly that they have little in common with each other, but the name. To begin with Marx was opposed to private property, not because of the danger to spirituality of attachment to worldly goods, but because he feared the continued exploitation of Labour by Capital. Religious Communism has as its motive an ascetic ideal, and is purely voluntary, while Marxist theories are based on selfish, if not sordid, motives, and leave no room for freedom of choice. The fact that one may give away freely whatever one possesses, does not justify the nse of compulsion on the part of an outsider. Yet that is what materialistic Communists would claim, in tracing out a relationship with early Christians or with Religious Orders. Not only is the Communism of Marx out of step with Christian social principles, but it can offer nothing so stable or permanent in the matter of social reform as that which is afforded by Christian principles, which to some extent underlie the prevailing social systems of to-day. An outstanding proof is afforded by Soviet Russia. The social disorder and starvation conditions which prevail in Russia must of necessity be connected with the Commu nistic attitude to property, and, therefore, from the purely econom ic point of view, it is claimed that the system has not proved itself. Moreover, the removal of the stimulus and incentiv e that is given to work in the matter of private profit has a retarding effect on the efficiency and ambition of the worker. In its endeavour to dispense with the motive of personal advanta ge, and the abolition of payment by results, the Soviet has in fact obtained opposite results to those which it set out to attain —thus bearing out the truth of the principles contained in the Encyclical of Pope Pius XI.: "Those who are engaged in product ion are not forbidden to increase their possessions in a just and lawful he who renders service to society andway indeed, it is right that have his due share of the increased enriches it, should himself And this is true according to the mind wealth of the community." of the Church, both of wage earners and of capitalists. The experien ce compel people to work for the community of Russia shows that to from the sole motive of service, is not merely unjust but imapracttca ble. We are expected to promote the welfare of the community, hut not at the total expense of our own welfare. No one will deny that private ownership on a large scale gives immense economic power to the owners. The temptation to abuse that power is always present, but it does not follow that the only corrective is to take away the source of that power. It is not the use, but the abuse, of private property which has caused such dissatisfaction in the world. If, as the present Holy Father maintains, property owners were fully cognisant of their obligations to their employees and, to the community at large, the present capitalistic system would never have been challeng ed. But Communism, like all other revolutionary ideals, fails because it goes too far. In order to benefit labour, it would beggar each class has equal claims to preservation and capitalism, though protection. The Church, on the other hand, would have regard for the welfare of each, provided, however, that each class recognises the social responsibilities and obligations that are based on This much, however, may be said for Capitali justice and charity. sm, that, with all itg exploitation of the masses, it has never been guilty of such disorder, distress and chaos as that which has befallen the Russia of to-day. But apart from the fact that Communism, from the economic point of view, has been weighed in the balance and found wanting, it presents still greater difficulties from the point of view of religion. We are all familiar with its attack on the institution of marriage, and its opposition to the traditional Christia ily life. To replace parental control by State n views on famsupervision is not only an offence against human affection and sympath y, but opposed to right reason and morality. Even Lenin's widow was constrained to protest agaikst the proposals that her child should be taken away from its parent, and educated in children's towns. She at least must have noted the difference between religious Commu nism and its secular, materialistic prototype. Nor is it necessa ry to emphasise the Communist attitude towards religion, for its propaganda in favour of atheism is well known. Its anti-clerical attiz, tude in Russia is borne out by the most recent cables, and no sane Christian can fail to see in its policy the safeguarding of Russia for the devil in place of democracy. In its efforts at social reform, Soviet Russia has neglected the one thing necessary, and is therefore assured of failure. This assurance is supported by centuries of history and tradition, not to mention the explicit teaching of the Gospel.

THE RECORD.

The Presentation Convent Ball, which was held at the Star of the Sea Hall, Cottesloe, on Wednesday night, was a most successful function. The hall was tastefully decorated for the occasion, and the music and catering was up to the usual high standard of previous functions. A feature of the evening was the presentation of eight debutantes to His Grace the Coadjutor Archbishop who honoured the function by his presence. His Grace was met on his arrival by Father O'Neill, Father Fahey, and members of the committee, after which the debutantes were presented by Mrs. T. Ahern. A gracefully executed set of Lancers was then performed by the debutantes and their partners, who were trained by Miss Mercia Scott. As a tribute of appreciation for her untiring interest in the function, Mrs. Ahern was presented with a beautiful bouquet of rose buds. A dainty supper was served, and dancing continued up to midnight. Altogether this year's effort was an outstanding success, which reflects great credit on the committee and their loyal supporters. The following debutantes were presented: Miss Dephne Stubbs, Miss Dora McKenny, Miss M. O'Sullivan. Miss K. Furniss, Miss Kathleen Brown, Miss Molly Elari, Miss Nancy Walker, and Miss Sylvia Kitto, Their partners were: Messrs. J. Carney, A. Cant, G. Hogan. Keith Quelch, A. Willet, J. Coppin, B. Edwards, and Len Bates.

We regret to announce the death, at the age of 69 years, of Mrs. Margaret O'Connor, widow of the late Mr. Pat O'Connor, who for many years was in the Education Department of this State. The late Mrs. O'Connor was the mother of Sister Mary Clare, of St. Brigid's Convent, West Perth. Requiem Mass was celebrated at St. Mary's, Leederville, for the repose of her soul. Four sons, Jim, Frank, John arid Joe, and another daughter (KathTo Sister Mary leen) survive her. Clare and her relatives "The Record" extends its sincere sympathy. The West Australian Hunt Club opened the 1934 season at Belmont on Saturday last. The display of horseflesh and hunters was picturesque and attractive. A striking figure in the display was that of the venerable hunting enthusiast, Mr. M. F. Cavanagh. He likes a good mount, and he sits it well.

The funeral of the late Mr. Patrick Joseph Kenneally, Stationmaster at Mundaring, and brother of the Minister for Industrial Developmeit (Mr. J. Kenneally), took place on Saturday morning last, and was largely attended. The deecased, who had been in indifferent health for some time, was well known and popular in the railway service. He was also a member of the Hibernian Society. A pathetic feature of his last illness was the futile endeavour of his brother, Mr. J. J. Kenneally, to save his life by means of a blood transfusion. He had the consolations of religion during his illness. and died fortified with the rites of Holy Church. Father F. J. O'Connor (his brother-in-law) was in constant attendance on him, and celebrated Requiem Mass in the Sacred Heart Church. Highgate Hill, on Monday morning last for the repose of his soul, and also officiated at the burial.

Boulder C.Y.M.S. Weekly Meeting. The President (Mr. J. Lowry) occupied the chair at the usual weekly meeting, held at the Club Rooms, on Thursday, 24th. ult. A good attendance of members was reported, and quite a lot of important business was transacted. Social and Games Evening. As a result of the social and gamea evening, held in the Club Rooms on Friday, 25th. ult., an amount of i15 will be handed to the All Hallows Ball Committee. Among the Kalgoorlie visitors to the Club Rooms during the evening were the Rev. Father Cullen and Mr. J. Cummins. The latter was kind enough to donate a very handsome silver mounted cake stand towards the society's effort. This will be raffled by the society, and the proceeds added to the amount mentioned above. Hockey Club. The hockey club is now a real live activity of the society, and great interest was taken in the scratch match played on Sunday. It is pleasing to note that the Hockey Association saw fit to appoint one of our members (Mr. A. Nind) as secretary of the Association. The club team will play its first game in the Association competition next Sunday, when it will be opposed to the Boulder City team. Dramatic Club. A visitor to the society's room any evening would be amazed at the work being done by the members of the Dramatic Club In one corner is to be seen our amateur artist, Mr. Bill Thomas, painting scenery in a manner that makes it hard to believe that the work is that of an amateur In another part, one of our carpenter members is busy building a stout box of solid timbers, from which our escape artist (Mr. Arthur Williams) claims he will make an easy exit after being securely imprisoned with padlock, etc. The Dramatic Club rehearsals held last Sunday evening went off without a hitch And I am certain that everyone will acclaim the second production of the Club. to be held in the Society's Rooms, on June 7, to be worthy of repetition in any of our best halls in the State. Great assistance in the musical side of our productions is being voluntarily and willingly given by Miss Olive Ruane, to whom the Society is very grateful. Football Club, The Football .Association competition was advanced a further stage last Sunday, when the Club team met Moonta Turks, on the Coronation Ground. Although our team suffered defeat, the standard of play has greatly improved. Among the best players last Sunday were Carroll. Cody, Pauley. A. Ryan. F. Ryan, and Francis. Fortnightly Dances. The fortnightly dances continue to be a great success, both from a social and financial standpohlt, and it is a tribute to our secretary (Mr. T. Ardagh) that this dance is now regarded as one of the most select held on the Goldfields.

Miscellaneous.

A visitor to the Club Rooms during the week-end was Mr. Arthur Wark, now of Kunanalling. The Society is pleased to hear that a prospective member, in Mr. Bob Boylen. late of the Public Hospital Perth, has commenced business ac a chemist in Burt-street. Boulder. The Society wishes this ex-Kalgoorlie Christian Brothers' boy every success in his venture.

New Norcia Football S.I.C. v. Victoria Plains. On Sunday, College, with a similar last quarter burst to that which carried them to victory against Mission, defeated Victoria Plains by 14 goals 11 behinds to 6 goals 6 behinds. Once again Plains were several men short, a notable absentee being their It is a great captain, _ferry Clune. pity that Plains cannot field a full team, for if on Sunday a few players of Clune's calibre had been available, College would in all probability have gone under. Plains won the toss and elected to kick towards the Monastery end. There was a fairly strong breeze blowing, and the Rea and Blacks should have piled up a good lead, but they made poor use of their advantage, and at quarter time College had only a threegoal deficit to make up. College changed over for the secTheir showond quarter confidently. ing on the previous Sunday indicated that they could make up this leeway with ease, but their form during this The forwards term was wretched. crowded the goal-mouth, instead of leading out wide, and several easy marks right in front of the goals were Withell and Lang were the dropped. only two who seemed capable of doing They set a good exthe right thing. ample to the rest of the team, but in They received inadequate supvain. port, and as it is impossible for two men to play a team, the result was that Plains led by two points at the halfScores: time bell.

After this, the Blue 'and Black attack went to pieces, and put up the same spiritless performance as it did before half-time.

Early in the last quarter, Maher started a chain of passes which resulted in a goal. Soon after J. Clune added two more majors, putting College ahead by a point. It was apparent that it was all over bar shouting. The boys piled up goal after goal, and when the final whistle went, the scores wsre: •ollege, 14 goals 11 behinds.

The:r football wt_is for the greater part of the match superior to that of the Ilegians, and it is a tribute to them that they held their opponents in check so long.

In the course of his address at a welcome to the Rev. Mother Provincial at the Loreto Convent School, Dr. Duhig, Archbishop of Brisbane, commenting on the manners of the modern girl, remarked: "Young ladies of to-clay have abandoned the art of walking.

To-day, if they stood in the street and watched the young ladies, they would find that they did not walk, they trotHe was not afraid to say—and ted. he might be criticised for saying it— that young ladies to-day had abandoned the art of walking. A fine type of young Australian manhood—Mr. Patrick Morrison—of "Tralee•' homestead, Queenbeyan, at the early age of 20 years, tragically closed his career recently. He had gone out with a relative fox shooting, and owing to his horse stumbling his gun exploded, with the result that he was mortally wounded. With great fortitude he rode back towards the homestead, though in a critical condition. Unable to go further, he dismounted, when rejoined by his cousin who before the accident had been riding along another track, and bade the young lady ride home and telephone the priest and doctor. The young man's father, a priest, and doctor were soon on the scene, and as quickly as possible he was brought to Queanbeyan Hospital. He was, however, beyond human aid. Fully conscious, he passed away after receiving the last Sacraments. His brother, Father John Morrison, who hurried across country from Young, was a few minutes too late. He was celebrant of the Solemn Requiem Mass, and read the prayers at the grave. The Mass was attended by over 800 people. Amongst them were the sister and aunt of the deceased, Sister M. Stanislaus, and Sister M. Lucy. of the Mercy Order, Monte Sant Angelo Convent, North Sydney. The funeral was the largest ever seen in the district. The death occurred suddenly, on the 4th. ult., of Mr. Michael O'Dea (father of the 14v. M. O'Dea, P.P., Camden, N S.W.), at his residence. "Claremont," Wahroonga. He was in his 73rd. year. The late Mr. O'Dea was born at Ennis, Co. Clare. Ireland. He came to Australia in 1584.. and joined the New South Wales Police Force. He retired in 1922 with the rank of first-class inspector. He was an active member of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. On the Sunday prior to his death he spent the day hospital visiting.

Thou Who clidst still the troubled wave, In the hour of danger save And direct me. ' should I by sin cause grief to Thee, Put Thou forth Thy hand to me— Raise me to Thee. And When I reach my journey's end, Jesu! in Thy mercy bend lAnd call to me. --Eoin T. MacMurchadha. WITH SAINT AND SAGE. Help us, Joseph, in our earthly strife, ever to lead a pure and blameless life. He who has little desire for Heaven shows that he has little love for God.

KINDNESS. "All have not gold to give, But all may yet be kind, Where'er you are, wher'er you be,. Give love to all mankind."' When one reads the above wsssage he sees it is not only those who are rich can be kind, but those who are It gladdens the poor heart to poor. think God raises them to the same pinnacle as the rich for kindness; that they, too, can be kind. Kindness is a golden virtue. It is the badge or livery of God's soldieis on earth. We may be kind in doing kind acts and by thinking kindly of others. It is hard to speak gently of those who caluminate and annoy us; but if we bear it patiently and for God's sake, we will be rewarded a hundred-fold. If we are kind to every person, our character gets more God-like every day, and people will speak well of us and respect our friends and relations even after many years. When we are speaking to anyone, we should be careful not to say any. thing thoughtless, for it may hurt deeply, though we do not intend to As Walter Scott says:wound. -Full many a shaft at random sent Finds mark the archer little meant, And many a word at random spoken May soothe or wound a heart that's . broken." To be kind we must deny ourselve, by putting others before self. "He thinks of you before himself, He serves you when he can, For, in whatever company, The manners make the man." But people are so selfish nowadays they always seem to want others to think of them. - We should be gentle with boasts of all kinds, As Coleridge says — "lie prayeth best who loveth best. All :things doth great and small, For the dear God Who loveth us He made and loveth all." Kindliess is "an attribute to God And earthly _power cloth Himself. then show likest God's when mercy 5e:1,0ns justice.If we behave thus we at acting like the saints and getting the hest out of this world and the next.—A little Irish girl's essay.

Augustine Baker Thereon , on right disposition's: " Affective prayer of the will alone makes other kinds of prayer deserve Were the heart the name- of prayer. f or will) excluded. meditsation would become mere speculation. and vocal prayer . but an empty - sound of words. God desires our hearts and affections only: without them our tongues and brains are of no value." THE WISDOM OF FATHER DEGEN Some natures are softened only by repeated strokes of adversity. Charm of manner enhances the value and doubles the effect of any action which it characterises. Government assistance should never be carried tss the point of weakening personal effort and individual enterprise. Some of the. cruellest wrongs are wrongs which human laws do not, and cannot, punish. The man who gets the, most out of life—he who preserves a child-like capacity for being thrilled by ordinary, every-day happenings. The study of logic and science, and the cultivation of art, so far from being detrimental to strong reli,gion Faith. support and foster it. The outcry against mass-production is futile. It has come to stay. It is the surrender of sturdy inclepeodence of thought to mass thinking that merits condemnation. Religion should not he treated as a thing apart from daily life, but as an essential element of it—flavouring and colouring all ordinary work-a-dav and play-a-day activities.

BECAUSE W. Burton—

"The whole tone of the English press has altered recently and even suddenly. It is now full of direct and provocative and even personal attacks on Until lately, the Catholic religion. there was something like a taboo; and it was maintained by the other side There was supposed to be a truce on the whole subject of religion; and the consequence was that those who hated Catholics called them something else, such as Celts or Latins or people attached to antiquated dogmas. It is not so to-day. Because of the hacieased international importance of the Church, or the many conversions among the intellectuals, or for some other reason, the opposition has suddenly broken out and begun to abuse us by our proper name; and a good thing too."—G. K Chesterton.

An economist is a man who knows a great deal about a very little, and who goes on knowing more and more about less and less until he finally knows everything about practically nothing. A politician is a man who kows a very little about a great deal, and who goes on knowing less and less about more and more, until finally he knows practically nothing about everything. A golfer played a long ball which struck an elderly man on the head. The injured party approached the golfer in indignation, asserting that the injury would cost the latter five pounds in compensation. "But I shouted 'Fore' distinctly," said the player in defence. "Oh, did ye?" said the old man. "Well, I'll take four quid, but I'm bound to say I didn't hear ye!" Mr. and Mrs. Kohan were touring in Italy. When they arrived in Pisa, Mrs. Kohan pattered her 260 pounds up the spiral stairway of the famous Leaning Tower, leaving her busband. below. She leaned far out from the topmost rampart, waved a scarf at her husband, and shouted, "Hi! Come on up." Kohan looked up to the top of the tower for the first time, and shouted, "Becky, Becky, get back! You're bending the building." The doctor was summoned to the telephone. "Come at once!" came an agonised voice at the other end. "My little boy has swallowed my pencil!" "All right," said the doctor, "I'll come immediately. What are you doing in the meantime?" "Using my fountain-pen." "Where have you been for the past week?" "Oh,Imoved." "Moved?" Landlady asked too much "Yes. for the rent." "How..much did you have to pay?" "Thirty shillings a week." "And how much is the new place?" "Two pounds a week." "But I thought you said your old landlady asked too much for the rent?" Following a pocket-picking incident, the victim was called upon to attend an identification parade at a policestation in the hope that he might spot the thief.

had used when repairing a chimney outside her house. The "boss" passed the letter on to the foreman, and asked him to send him in an explanation of the matter. It ran: "Me and Bill Williams were on this job. I was up on the top of the chimney when I accidentally let a brick fall down on Bill's head. " 'Sorry, Bill,' I said. " 'You really must be a little more careful, Harry,' he answered.. "And that's all the two or us said. . "Mummy, do you say 'It is me,' or 'It is I?'" "Always remember the rhyme: 'It is I,' said the spider to the fly." "But couldn't you say, 'It is me,' said the spider to the flea?" Teacher (warning the pupils against catching cold): "I had a little brother seven years old, and one day he took his new sleigh out in the snow. He caught pneumonia, and three days later he died." Silence for ten seconds. Voice from the rear: "Where's his sleigh?" An inquisitive old lady was always waylaying the new minister in the street to ask him questions. Oee day she stopped him and said: "Mr. Brown, would you please tell me the difference between a Cherubim and a Seraphim?" The young minister thought wi'dly for a moment or two. Theo he replied, with amn inspiration: "Well, they did have a difference, I believe, but they made it up." A sailor saved his captain from drowning. "To-morrow," said the captain. "I shall thank you in front of the entire crew for saving my life." "Don't do that." said the sailor: they'll half kill me." A clubman who was inclined to be convivial was being reproved by his wife. "When you've had a few whiskiesand-sodas," she said severely, "you ought to realise that you've had enough. and ask for some harmless drink like—well—like sarsaparilla.". "Yes, my dear." was the meek reply, "hut the difficulty is that when I'Ne I ad a few whiskies I can't say :arm earilla." A peasant bought a barometer, and a fortnight later the instrument maker from whom he bought it payled the door. Instrument Maker: "Well. are you satisfied with the barometer?" Peasant: "Rather! I have had A a fortnight, and we have had fine weather all the time." "Now, I want Albert to have a thor oughly modern and up-to-date education," said his mother, "including Latin." "Yes, of course." said the headmaster. "though Latin is, as you know, a dead language." "Well, all the better. Albert's going to be an undertaker."
