Why the Kookaburra Laughs HAVE A LAUGH WITH HIM
A cavlary subaltern was showing an elderly woman the sights of Aldershot. Although rather puzzled by some of his military technicalities, she did her best to take an intelligent interest in everything. "And there," said the subaltern, pointing to the verdant middle distance, "is our polo field." "Ah, yes," said the woman, adjusting her spectacles, "I always think there are few more beautiful sights that a field of waving polo." The Martin family went for a charabane trip to a famous cave of echoes. When they returned Mr. Martin discovered that his wife was not on the charabanc, and he became aslarmed. "Do you know where your mother's got to?" he asked one of his daughters. "Oh," said the girl offhandedly, "I e xpect she is still in the cave trying to have the last word." • A motorist driving through a country district, stopped to give a farmhand a lift. All went well for a time, but on trying to negotiate a sharp S-bend the motorist lost control in a skid, and the car crashed head-on into a tree. A fter ascertaining that his passanget was uninjured, the motorist offered his apologies. "That's all 'right, soil'," said the Then a look of bewilderf arm-hand. ment came over his face, and he said: "How do you stop when there are no trees?" was a very dissatisfied tenant who approached the landlord of the new house. "Look here" he said with some warmth, "that house I've just taken I've from you is horribly draughty. heating on pounds and pounds spent arrangements, but wherever I sit my hair is blown all over my head. Can you do something about it?" The landlord gravely shook his head, but there was a twinkle in his eye. "I'm afraid not, sir,- he replied. "But if I may make a suggestion, I think it would be easier and cheaper for you to get your hair cut." t I
"You think that actor conceited?" "Conceited! If he heard a clap of thunder he'd walk to the window and bowl" A very hard-up actor was suddenly discovered to he in funds, and his friends asked whence the doubloons had miraculously come. "Borrowed them from Jenkson," he explained, naming a Scots actor. "Good Heavens," exclaimed one of the crowd, "I always thought he was reckoned to be pretty tight." "So he was when I borrowed the cash." After a young lawyer had talked nearly an hour to a jury, who felt like lynching him, his opponent in the case, a veteran of the legal cockpit, rose, smiled sweetly at judge and jurymen, and said: "Your lordship, I will follow the example of my young friend who has just concluded, and submit the case without argument." Tobacconist: "It's no use suing you. Here's a receipt for what you owe. We'll call it paid." Customer: "Splendid!" Mabel was the only one of the kindergarten class who spoke up briskly when, for the benefit of some visitors, the teacher asked: "Is there any little girl who can recite?" "Please, teacher, I can." Step "That's a good girl, Mabel. nut in front of the class. Now what can you say for us?" " 'Nelson's Farewell to his Mother.'" Well, now. begin" "Splendid. "Ta-ta. Mum," said Mabel. dramatically, waving her hand in the air.
The sad-looking man entered a restaurant, and a waiter bustled up. "What will you have, sir? Some cold shoulder?" "No, thanks. I had that this morning." "Well, then, some tongue?" "No, thanks. I'll get that to-night." The master of ceremonies, after a flowery speech at a banquet, exclaimed: "Gentlemen, the toast is 'The Ladies,' bless them; and, after all, they are the sweets of life!" A handsome bachelor rose to support the toast. "Gentlemen," he said, "the ladies are the sweets of life. One half of them are acid drops, and the other half humbugs." A woman went to buy a drinking trough for her dog, and the shopkeeper asked her if she would like one that bore the inscription, -For the Dog." "I don't mind at all," she replied. "My husband never drinks water, and the dog can't read." A London policeman had been keeping his eye on a man who had been behaving unusually. At last the constable approached him and said: "I'm afraid I shall have to take you in charge. Do you know you've walked round the Albert Memorial seventy times?" "Well," said the man, gravely, "I must do it, you know, old fellow; I'm a Rotarian." "Is it true your son had to give up his music lessons because of ear trouble?" "Yes I couldn't stand it any longer." A man was seeing his mother-in-law off at the station after a long visit. He was carrying her bag. and while she went on to the platform he went to get a platform ticket. When he returned the ticket-collector said he could not enter the platform by that gate. The train was due to start in two minutes. "My mother-in-law is going away by that train," explained the man, "and if she doesn't get this bag, she'll come back." The ticket-collector flung the gate wide open and said: "Pass, friend." The train was racing along at sixty miles an hour, and Robinson was dozing in a corner of his compartment when he was disturbed by a fellow-passenger rushing along the corridor. "Excuse roe," gasped this excited individual. "hut is your wife a rather stout woman, wearing a brown costume and a red hat?" "Yes," replied Robinson. "What's aui the excitement about?" "Excitement!" exclaimed the other. "The excitement is that she's just fallen out of the train." "Good heavens!" shrieked Robinson. "Don't stand there doing nothing. Pull She's got the communication cord. the tickets." Favourites were winning, and the layers of odds were having a bad time. One bookmaker had run short of cash, and when the fourth favourite got home he could not pay out. He asked his clients to give their names and addresses, and promised that the amounts due would be forwarded. The clerk filled his book and the bookmaker strolled into the ring, where he met an old friend, who remarked on the many thousands present at the meeting. "Yes," the bookmaker broke in gloomily; "and what's more. I know all their names and addresses." There's no getting away from a guilty c onscience. A man went fishing once, and lost his lunch on the way. He s tarted hack to look for it, and presently he met a tramp who was smiling to himself. The fisherman said, pretty sharply: "Did you find anything on the mad as you came along?" "No," said the tramp, "I didn't find anything special Couldn't a dog have come across it and eaten it up?"

was under the protection of French troops. When the troops had to evacuate the Ukraine, he went with them into Rumania. That was the beginning of his life in exile. While they were still at Odessa, Mgr. Kessler confirmed the two Frenchmen in the chapel of the Franciscan Sisters. There were some 20 priests and seminarians among the French troops. When the Confirmation ceremony was ended, the Russian prelate spoke to the soldiers in Latin. He said • "My heart is filled with chagrin because I, a Catholic Bishop and shepherd of souls, have had to abandon my flock. Tracked by the llolshevists, I have succeeded in escaping from their hands, but now, harboured in a house that is not mine, I cannot manifest to you, as I would wish, all my paternal solicitude. Poor and exiled, it is impossible for me to receive as I would have done had I been in my own home. "On the other hand, I permit myself to experience a sentiment of joy that is no less profound, and this joy is occasioned by the double spectacle before my eyes. I am happy, my beloved friends, because here, in this foreign land, so remote from your own coun• try, you have found our holy Mother, the Catholic Church. Even in a dis tant land within a nation unfortunately composed for the most part of heretics or schismatics, you can admire the faith and the works that flourish among you with such radiance. . . .

He has rendered great service to S I.C. this season, and on his place in the Collegians' team as ruck man would be hard to fill. ,A pleasing feature of the game wan the brainy exhibition of full-forward position play given by the diminutive Gaynor. His position play and accurate passing, the essential qualities of a goal-sneak, were excellent. A t three o'clock the final whistle was blown, leaving the Old Boys victorious by 5 goals 1 point. Scores: Old Boys, 8 goals 11 behinds; College, 3 goals 10 behinds. The match was played in a friendly spirit, befitting such an occasion. The College team is gradually moulding into shape, and although beaten so convincingly on this occasion can with reason look forward to better results in the return match on June 27. Following this game, the Association match, between Plains and Mission, was played. Mission were successful by the narrow margin of 7 points. Plains led up till a few minute3 before time, but two quick goals from the boot of the reliable Tayl r placed Mission in a winning position. Scores: Mission. 8 goals 9 behinds; Victoria Plains, 7 goals 8 behinds. Brother Charles umpired both matches, some feat, as the two games were played straight off. His interpretation of the holding the ball rule met with the approval of all the players, and he is to be congratulated on his keeping the players unswervingly to the rules and spirit of the
C owaramup Mission. By the grace of God, the first Mission held in Cowaramup was preached recently by the Very Rev. Father Grogan, C.SS.R. The mission opened on Wednesday, May 23, with Rosary, devotions, and sermon, and the solemn close of the mission took place the following Sunday evening. The attendances at all the services were very satisfactory, especially in view of the most unpleasant weather. Sunday morning was a day of gener,g1 Communion, there being 36 Communicants, a surprising number, in view of the usual attendances at the monthly Mass. Sun-' day evening saw a grand congregation. Rev. Father Langmead brought the Busselton Choir to lead the singing, and extra seating had to be provided to accrmmodate all. Both Catholics and non-Catholics are enthusiastic in their thanks to Father Grogan for his instructive sermons, and it is hoped that no great length of time will elapse before another mission will be held here. Holy Mass was celebrated on Monday, May 28, after which rather Grogan left to continue his good work in another part of the parish. It might be added that most of the Catholics of the district were able to avail t hemselves of the privilege of the Holy Year Indulgence during the mission.

London. C ardinal Bourne. speaking at the mass meeting in the Victoria Palace, reminded the audience that he had had the rgeat privilege of meeting St john Bosco personally. "In 1883. when I was a student of the Seminary of St. Sulpice. this holy man," said His Eminence. "came to Paris, andIremember well the address he gave on that occasion. "In 1885, in the year after my own ordination, I travelled to Turin, and I had the privilege of being his gue*t at table. I n 1887, I received more than one letter from him, and it was given to me to receive his sons when they first arrived in London at the beginning of their work here. "For those reasons you will realise how much I thank Almighty God that I have lived to see his canonisation." The lessons of St. John Bosco's life, said Mrs. T. F. Sheed. and his activities, teach to those now called upon to engage in Catholic Action to be practical, to be infinitely patient. and to carry out allotted tasks without looking. for results. Lord FitzAlan spoke of St. John B osco's loyalty to the Holy See, showed that in this the Catholicsand of this country, with their intense loyalty and devotion to the Pope. are closely linked to the Saint. Lord FitzAlan recalled that one of Don Bosco's students, Dominic Savio--whose Cause for Beatification is proceeding—told the Saint that he wished to see the Pope to tell him that great triumph for "God is preparing a Catholicism in England.'
On another occasion, one cf his former pupils was chosen by lot to shoot Don Bosco. But when the time came for the man to carry out the crime, he faltered. Don Bosco saved him frost the consequences of the nlot., and gave him a new start in another country. The Saint's Mother. Saint John BOSCO'S' mother had a wonderful influence upon him. Miss Kathleen Bolfe, one of the speakers, said that during his early childhood it was his mother who foste-ed and enccuraged every sign of his precocious virtues, and it was to her that he rushed, as a small boy 9 years old, with
On account of the Quarant Ore, which coincided with the first Sunday meeting of the Order, the devotions in St. Mary's Cathedral had to be considerably altered. Instead of the profession of 17 sisters, followed by instruction and Benedicticln o11 the Blessed Sacrament, the Franciscan Ross. ary of the Seven Joys of Our Lady was recited by the vice-prefect, in the absence of Brother Prefect (who was in retreat, in union with several other bro, thers, at the Monastery), and responded to by the rest of the tertiaries. After the recital of the Rosary all remained in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for some time, before adjoining to the Cathedral Hall. There an interesting and most earnest lecturette was delivered by Brother Benedict. on "The Conversion of England," and also, incidentally, that of Australia. Sister Elizabeth explained the working of the "Crusade Sundays," established in East Perth, where children of that district are received, amused, an4 instructed by tertiaries. Volunteers were called for and came forward IA 11ingly, and needlework was distribu to be made for the same cause. Several applications for admiss )n have been received, and a new m mber, but a tertiary of many ye Irs' standing, from the far-off Island of Mauritius. was welcomed into the Fraternity, in the person of Sister Francis Xavier. Franciscan Rosary beads may be obtained at Pellegrini's, Hay-street, for the moderate sum of 1/9 each. Badges of the Order may be had from the Novice Master and Novice Mistress, and all who ha'i-e not yet done so are urged to procure and wear one. An indulgence is attached to the public wearing of a Third Order badge.
the story of that wonderful dream of seeing wild beasts turned into iambs— a dream which was in some strarge and mysterious way prophetc of his future work. "His mother never failed him. She saved for him, worked for him—as she worked. and saved for her other children—and above all left him free to follow the call of God. "Also. perhaps most diffic.ult of all, when as a priest he r.orled her help, she left the hard-earned peac- of her little home to start a fresh life of toil for the boys he wished io train and convert for Christ."
A Catholic Society to Raise Wages SEQUEL TO ENCYCLICAL ON SOCIAL PROBLEM
S. The wages and salaries of the London Catholic Truth Society employees have been increased as a direct result of the Holy Father's Encyclical, "Quadragesimo Anno.” This Encyclical re-emphasises the principles set forth by Pope Leo XIII. in the 'Encyclical on the Condition of the Working Classes. Mr. Joseph Weld, hon. treasurer, stated at the Society's annual meeting recently, that after the C.T.S. had decided to publish "Quadragesimo Anno" as a pamphlet, it occurred to them to review conditions among their staff in the light of the Encyclical. vestigation resulted in the recommendation to and acceptance The inby the general committee of a series of increases in wages and salaries. Moreover, Mr. Weld stated that there will be further increases. The financial statement shows that wages and salaries at headquarters last year amounted to i4,370 2s. 3d., and that E150 was set aside for staff superannu ation.

Father Taguchi, of Tokyo, preached a funeral Archbisoration in the Osaka Hall. hop Marella, Apostolic Delegate, and Archbishop Chambon, of Tokyo, visited the family of the deecased. A non-Christian audience of one thousand persons listened to Rev. Dr. Paul Yu Pin, of the Synodal Commission, Peking, explain the Catholic Church, its doctrine, and position, on the last day of a "Week of Religions," organised during March at Tientsin. The speaker, who went to the meeting at the request of the Bishop, spoke to his hearers in clear terms and explained the Catholic Church without Frequent applause mincing words. showed that the audience was impressed.

Catholic groups and circles of Tokyo, the Sekiguchi Christians. the Catholic Women's Society of Yokohama, the Ladies of the Morning Star, and others have sent gifts in kind. Several protests have been made against a clause in the recently completed draft of New Constitution for China which declares: "There shall be freedom of religion within the limits of The phrase has been conthe law."

While these deliberations were going on with the State Departr:ent and Labour Department, the Bureau of Immigration of the National Catholic \ 4fare .Conference received requests from 14 different communities asking for assistance in thiis matter. Peasants of Szechwan report that whenever the red army changes ix) ition, a palanquin, carefully closed and guarded, accompanies the officers. It is said that the occupant is a European. Jesuit missionaries have several times sought to send a messanger across the lines to identify the my .terious traveller, but the reds have persistently refused permission. Part of the red forces now in Szechwan were formerly in Kiangsi, near Anhwei, so that it is not at all unlikely that they are the same who kidnapped Father vito, Spanish Jesuit, of Anking Vizariate, who was taken captive by reds four years ago, in April, 1930, and from whom no word has been received in several months. Catholics of the Archdiocese of Milan gave 145,750 dollars for foreign missions last year. The same Archdiocese, during the last 12 months, gave 35 seminarians, six auxiliary Brothers, and 72 Sisters towards the Church's foreign missionary personnel. The Pontifical Associations for mission aid are excellently organised in Milan. Their motto for last year was "Confidence and Perseverance," while for this year it is "Work All the Year Round." A shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes. at Tapitse. on the banks of the Blue River, in the south-west corner ot China, near Tibet, commemorates a happy event of 40 years ago. The region had 'been scourged by bubonic plague for 20 years, from 1873 to 1893. Bishop Fenouil, Vicar Apostolic at that time, advised the missionary in charge. Father Piton, to organise a day of public prayer and intercession. All the faithful went to the Sacraments and followed the priest in procession as he went about blessing the city with water from the Grotto at Lourdes. The plague ceased from that moment. The Church erected in 1919 ills become a pilgrim centre. The Sacred Heart Missionaries of Betharram and the Missionary Sisters Daughters of the Cross of La Puve, France. now work in this district.

HIS .FATHER'SVONSEN11 WILLIAM P. LINEHAN The other day in Los Angeles a rather nervous-looking young fellow appeared at the Marriage License Bureau to purchase a certificate to wed. The clerk, to whom he applied, after asking him several questions and looking him over very critically, said in a rough voice: "You can't procure a license here unless you have your father's affidavit, stating that he has no objection to Your marriage." The timid youth reached into his pocket and drew forth his father's letter, which runs as follows: "Know all men by these presents that I. C. C. Towner, am the father of John C. Towner. bearer of this note. and that the said John is of the age of 20 years, and has conceived the idea that he should get married. "I have endeavoured to dissuade him from such a foolish act, but being of the charactaristic stubborness of the Towner family, he insists on getting married, and has seleted as his life partner a beautiful girl by the name of Theresa de Nitro, who has very foolishly consented to marry him. "My consent to the marriage being necessary, I freely give it, and may the Lord have mercy on their souls!" The father, no doubt, was a hardheaded, practical fellow who knew something of the world. He believed that his boy had plenty of time to marry when he had finished his studies and made good in business. Rather than have him run away from home. however, lie about his age, and be married by a justie of the peace, he preferred to give his consent. The closing words of his letter. neverthless. which may seem to some a bit of htunotir, were in all probability meant most seriously. Who knows but that those young people, who plunge into matrimony before they have considered the obligations of married life, may need the mercy of God in a special way!— "Ave Maria."

All it asks for is a reciprocal agreement about the acknowledged rights and prerogatives, due to Church and State, each in its own sphere. In the matter of supporting political parties, Catholics have the same t liberty of opinion as everybody else, and when a lawful governmen full authority that is placed in power, they are expected to give loyalty and obedience.

Instead it has deliberately shelved the question, on the grounds that it is of secondrate importance, and consequently must await consideration until other more important issues are dealt with. In view of the fact that no ordinary political party requires of its members the same implicit obedience as is demanded of members of the Fascist Party—this uncertainty regarding its attitude towards moral problems in which the Church is vitally interested, will lose for Sir Oswald Moseley and his fellow Fascists many Catholic adherents.

lowing the Great War, he met Lenin, the father of the Bolshevik revolution, on two occasions. This fact is recalled by Baron Bey-ens. the Belgian diplomat, in his book, sQuatres Ans a Rome (1921-26)," in which he relates interesting events of the post-war period. On the first occasion Mgr. Ratti, as he was then known, met Lenin in order to get permission to go to Moscow This permission was granted him, but on his arrival, when he discovered that he was constantly guarded, as if he were a prisoner, he abandoned the trip. When he met the Bolshevik leader a second time it was to ask him to procure the release of the Bishop of Bohilev, Mgr. Baran de Ropp, then a prisoner in Soviet Russia. The plea was successful, the Nuncio pointing out that the imprisoned prelate was a Papal subject, nominated by the Pope, and subject to him only. The Bishop was expelled from Russia in 1919.

St. Ildephonsus' College Old Boys' Association REUNION AT NEW NORCIA In line, cool weather, on the Sunday, and with a glorious day on the Monday, the reunion of past students of St. Ildephonsus' College was held at New Norcia during last week-end. It proved a magnificent success from every point of view, and every one of the 60 Old Boys present voted it the most successful function of its kind ever conducted by the Association. The party made a pleasant trip up to the College on the Saturday afternoon per motor-bus and car. During the evening, a euchre tournament was played at the College amongst the past and present boys. On Sunday morning, the Old Boys and present boys combined in a general Communion, which was given during the Mass celebrated at the College by the Lord Abbot of New Norcia, Following Mass, a reunion breakfast, presided over by His Lordship, was served in the College Hall, which was specially decorated for the occasion with the colours of the school—royal blue and black—and souvenir cards of the event were distributed' amongst those present. Several toasts were proposed, the first being "The Clergy," by D. Maunsell, and responded to by His Lordship: the second. "Alma Mater,- by Kevin Byrne, to which Brother Brendon, Principal of the College, and a wonderful helper of the Old Boys' Association. responded. The toast of the Association was ably proposed by Brother Canissus, and replied to by Mr. Dick Bryant, our President, in his usual happy style. The last toast was that of "The Press." to which Mr. Lanigan and Mr. Doug. Pratt, secretary of the Association, did justice.

A New Matrimonial Catechism. We have received from the publishers: Pellegrini and Co., a revised Australian edition of the original American Matrimonial Catechism. We are indebted for this revised edition to Monsignor Nevin, Professor of Canon Law at Manly College, who has brought the original up to date with the new Code of Canon Law. When one remembers the haze of uncertainty and debate which centred around the interpretation of many of the points of marriage legislation, in the early years of the Code, one feels grateful for such clarity and certainty a is to be found in commentaries on Canon Law to -day. These corrunentarie% however, are out of reach of the ordinary Catholic layman, for whom this little Catechism is primarily intended. That it will prove both useful and salutary cannot be doubted, and its publication arrives at a most opportune time, when the sanctity and responsibility of the married state is so much sinned against. As the name implies the booklet is compiled in the form of question and answer and is simple enough for the. unsophisticated, while being erudite enough for the most scholarly. In fact, there is no phase of the Holy Sacrament which is not discussed with clearness and simplicity. The whole is compressed into eleven chapters, dealing with the Sacrament itself, the jurisdiction of the Church over marriage, mixed marriages, marriage impediments, banns, and preparation for marriage, duties and obligations of parenthood. and concludes with an appendix giving the marriage ceremony in English. After a perusal of this little booklet, the reviewer has no hesitation in recommending it to every Catholic adult. It contains all the necessary information for those intending to be married, and as an index of the attitude of the Catholic Church t, wards this great social Sacrament should prove most instructive and edifying. It deserves a widespread sale amongst our Catholic people. Our copy from the publishers. Pellegrini and Co., Hay-street. Wrapper cover. price 6d.

OUR GAME Our game is a splendid one to play. There is the thrill of the high mark taken above the heads of opponents, the elation of winning that dash to the ball, of get. ting one's kick when in difficulties. and the "feel" of the ball when the drop-kick is properly timed. The passing of the years cannot efface the memory of those glow. ing moments. Our game is a splendid one to watch, and the spectacular happens more than in any other code. Nor is it essential—as in some ball games—that a team should be drilled into a machine before the spectacular is achieved. One of the best exhibitions within our ken was a game between schoolboys who had no coach and were quite self-taught. Gentlemen, I give you the toast Our Game."

West Perth v. Victoria Park, at Lee-
Football enthusiasts don't have to look far for to-day's most attractive game. This match should be a very even one. West's scored two victories over the week-end—the first from Swans in tollow fashion, the second at South's expense by a single point. On the other hand, the Redlegs went under to the leaders, East Fremantle, by a couple of goals at the Port last Saturday, and dumped Suby in convincing style on Monday. A lot will depend on the Harry Grigg-Morgan clash at the pivot. Both men have been playing well, and in "Wattle's" opinion, the side that holds sway in this department of the game will emerge victorious. A very close game is anticipated, with West Perth just ahead at the finish. South Fremantle v. Subiaco, at Fremantle. When the pair met in the opening match of the season, Souths caned Subiaco. This result surprised most enthusiasts, but since then neither side has done particularly well. Souths appear to be striking their true form now, and were a trifle unlucky to be
hopes with a fine showing against West Perth, have slumped considerably. Souths are particularly hard to beat on their native heath, and although Subiaco may surprise, we are taking no chances, but pick South Fremantle to win.
East Perth v. Claremont-Cottesloe, at Perth Oval. The Tigers broke the ice last Monday at the expense of Swans, and having tasted blood, will be eager for more. East Perth convincingly defeated Suby last Saturay, but put up feeble resistance to Old Easts on Monday, and were defeated by nearly 10 goals. Nevertheless, "Wattle" lieHeves that they are quite capable of defeating the 'Monts. It should be a good game, with East Perth as winners. East Fremantle v. Swan Districts, at Bassendean. There can be only one result to this game. Swans have done well for a new team, but lately they have slackened somewhat, whereas the Seaside Blues are playing at the top of their form. We will waste no space in discussing the whys and the wherefores, but pick East Fremantle to win.

Perforated sheets, each containing ten stamps bearing a copy of the Congress badge, are being prepared, and will be sent to the various parishes in due course. Cards will be prepared, showing ten squares to which the stamps will be affixed.

The future Marshal replied: When I go to Mass, I sit in the front row, and I don't turn round to see what officers are behind me." • It was appropriate that the first church and parish erected in honour of St. Robert Bellarmine, recently canonised, should have been in the Eternal City. It was in Rome that the great Cardinal entered the Society of Jesus. It was there that he gained world-wide fame as professor in the Collegio Romano, and afterwards as its Rector. In Rome Cardinal Bellarmine wrote his monumental work, the "Controversial," much praised by the friends of the Church. much attacked by its enemies. In Rome he was theologian to Clement VIII, and by him created Cardinal. It was in the Eternal City, finally, where the great champion of the Chair of Peter. worn out with many a hard-fought battle, died in the Jesuit Novitiate of Sant' Andrea. on September 17, 1621, in his seventy-ninth year. The Rt. Rev. Msgr. Thomas M. Conroy, rector of the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. at Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A.. has been asked to serve as arbiter in disputes over wages, hours of labour, and practices between employers and employees in the dry cleaning and dyeing business in that city, and has accepted. The employers. representing virtually all the dry cleaning establishments in the city, have a committee of five members and the employees a similar committee. .Msgr. Conroy was informed that he was the unanimous choice of both groups, and that they have agreed to accept whatever decision he makes. Abbe Georges H. Lemaitre, Belgian priest-physicist. who won world-wide fame with his theory of the -expanding universe." has' been declared the winner of the 500,000 franc Franqui Foundation prize for his contribution to science. The prize is valued at £5,000. Abbe Lemaitre, who recently was a guest professor t the Catholic University of America, at Washington, also made studies at Boston College, and gave a course at the Massachusetts Institute of :Technology. Victor J. Dowling, eminent jurist, and one of the outstanding Catholic laymen of the United States, died recently after having been stricken with a cerebral hemorrhage. Mr. Dowling, 67 years old, and former presiding justice of the appellate division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York. was honoured by two Popes. Pope Benedict XV. created him a Knight of the Order of St. Gregory the Great in 1916. and His Holiness Pope Pius XI. made him a Papal Chamberlain of the Cape and Sword in 1927. He was made a Commander of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre by the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem in 1908. and the governments of a number of different countries bestowed high honours upon him.

The Spiritual Life READINGS FOR THZ HOME. THE SACRED IMAGE.
I will bless each home where the Image Of My Sacred Heart is seen. I will bless it at morn and even. And through all the hours between. I will give it My threefold blessing Of Purity, Peace, and Love, I will make it the earthly image Of My Home in Heaven above. . I will bless the innocent children That look on that image fair, I will bless the father and mother Till their life is a long, sweet prayer. I will bless them in all their journeys, I will carry them safe again; To that home where the holy image. Is shown to the gaze of men. Should sin come over the Threshold, That image will be their shield— In the hour when one amongst them To the tempter's voice wc,uld yield. And sorrow will come as a blessing And Death as a gracious queen, Tr each home where the holy image Of My Sacred Heart is seen. —D. O'Reilly. in the Drogheda Independent." WITH SAINT AND SAGE. Go to Communion, go to Jesus with love and confidence. go to live with Him, in order to be able to live for Him.—St. John Vianney. Our enemies show in their conduct what their master has taught them. Let us show in ours what we have learned at the feet of Jesus.—Saint Gregory Nazianzen. God has decreed that the redemption should be accomplished by Mary; and as nothing has been made without Him, so nothing has been restored without her.—St. Peter Damian. Speak not ill of such as speak ill of thee. but rather speak well of them.— St. Benedict. Speak little, do much.--Saint John Berchmans. Humble and discreet. loving and happy, ready and cheerful, in Thy service may I endure to the end.—St. Bonaventure. How vile earth seems when I look up to Heaven! —Saint Ignatius. The price of charity is yourself.-saint Augustine. To love is to wish the others's highest good.—R. H. Benson. Practise your own teaching.—St. Alphonsus. To him who does not love ,it is seldom given wholly to see.—Anon. ,Remember. God is not your stepfather. but your Father.—UlIathorne. Do whatever may excite you most to love.—St. Teresa. SPIRITUAL FOOD. Just as men are preserved from death by good food, so the Holy Eucharist. by strengthening the powers of the spirit, by deadening concupiscence and by assisting us against our ghostly enemy, saves us from dear4olta falls. "Thou hast prepared in my sight a table against them that trouble me."— Bishop Hedley. GRATITUDE. God does not change. but surely it needs a_ divine patience to go on show. ering constant blessings on such ungrateful creatures as we! A spirit of thankfulness would go far to help us If God on our road heavenwards. gives again and again, in spite of our ingratitude, what would He not give us if we were constant in giving thanks for His gifts —Mother Mary Philip. PATIENCE. When internal distress in prayer is so - intense that, • apparently, she can onry keep herself in an attitude of prayer (her worship seeming so utterly devoid of the spirit of devotion as to appear to be positively injurious to Go'cll, let the soul he patient and ab. stain from disquieting herself with complaints: especially, let her not seek consolation in creatures or recreation at the times appointed for recollection and let her remember that God will require no more of her ;than she is well able to perform. He knows that it is not always in her power to subdue her Augustine nature.—Ven. rebellious Baker. SINGLENESS OF HEART.

The following official instructions have been issued in connection with the International Eucharistic Congress, which will be held in Buenos Aires from October 10 to 14: Foreigners who go to Argentina for the Congress are to be divided into three categories: members of the Congress comprising all the Bishops; delegates, comprising all the priests; and pilgrims, comprising all the laiity. By a decree of the Government of Argentina, the members of the Congress and the delegates are to be exempt from the payment of consular fees; the pilgrims shall pay only five pesos gold, equivalent to one pound sterling gold. To enjoy these advantages each interested party must obtain from their ecclesiastical authorities a certificate to prove tflat they are a member of the Congress, a delegate or a pilgrim to the International Eucharistic Congress of Buenos Aires, and that their sojourn in the Argentine Republic snail not be prolonged beyond December 31, 1934. Besides the certificates from their ecclesiastical authorities, each person shall obtain a passport, judicial certi iicate. and a sanitary certificate. These four documents must be presented. for approval, in the Argentine Consulate. The representatives of shipping companies and touring agencies are authorised to clear up doubtful questions, to give information and to help in overcoming difficulties. The Government of Argentina has suppressed the tax of 10 per cent. which was formerly charged on return tickets.
