OBERAMMERGAU Germany's Famous Passion Play Notwithstanding the turmoil in Germany, the Passion Play at Ober. ammergau is still drawing thousands of visitors. Although Catholic associations are being dissolved, and the Nazi antipathy to Christianity fairly widespread, the government has spared no effort to advertise this "reverent representation of the greatest event in history.Critics explain that the financial advantages accruing from the influx of hundreds of thousands of visitors, has a "broadening" effect on the minds of the new pagans. Our religion in its official manifestations is impeached in Germany. but Catholic money from abroad is welcome. Already there are signs that Hitler's vaulting ambition has over-leaped itself.

As most people know, the villagers of 'Oberammergau, began their play as a thanks-offering for deliverance from a plague which was That devastating the countryside. was in 1634, and this year's series of performances, the first of which took place recently, commemorate the 300th.

The Passion Play at Oberammergau gains much of its attraction because it is unusual in our days. and there is a lesson to be learned in the realisation that it was born in a time when such plays were by no means unique, but had been the common joy of villagers everywhere for centuries, writes J.

-Now, sir," defending counsel said to the witness, "you have known the accused a long time?" "Twenty odd years," was the reply. "And you think him perfectly honest?" "Perfectly!" "Would you trust him with your own money?" "I certainly would!" "Then tell me, sir—do You consider it likely he would have stolen this sum of money, as the prosecution alleges?"

A LAUGH
WITH HIM
One of those very small cars had run out of petrol. The nearest garage was eight miles away, and the harassed motorist was wondering .what would be the best thing to do when a magnificent car appeared round the bend of the road. "Could you spare me a drop of petrol?" he asked the driver, "I've run completely out." The leather-coated chauffeur de. . scended from his car and eyed the tiny vehicle drawn into the side of the road. he returned, with a contemptuous sniff. "It's not petrol you want; it's a new flint." "Oh, what's the news?" asked his f riend.

The Meaning of the Term
strain upon themselves for the good name of the country, in the name of common sense and common reason, and in order to carry out the ivaxim of Jesus Christ. His Lordship referred to a serious outrage that had occurred in that parish, that of firing into a house, and asked would those who did it like if their own house were fired into. No provocation justified ruffianly action of that kind. He made those . remarks in the public interest in order to keep those who might be inclined to do violence from such evil, in order that they might be able to live, no matter what different opinions they might have, in brotherly Christian charity.
Preaching at a Confirmation cere mony in St, Finbarr's, West Cork, re cently, His Lordship Most Rev. Dr Cohalan dealt with the unity of the Church. He said non-Catholics some. times use the expression "Roman Catholies" in the heretical and illegiti mate sense separated from the Visible Catholic Church. They maintain that no one Church is the Catholic Church: that the Catholic Church, if visible al, , all, is made up of all independent. dis united, separate Churches of the world. This theory, said the Bishop, does not harmonise with the doctrine and prac tice of Christ and the Apostolic age. when Christ said: "Go, teach ye all nations." He did not command Peter to establish an independent Church in
one country; Andrew a rival and opposing Church in another country; anct other Apostles disunited and quarrel. ling Churches in countries of thei • Apostolate. The Catholic Church is called "Roman- not because it is confined to a city or country, but because the universal visible Head of the Church is Bishop of Rome. The term "Roman- prefixed to "Catholic" does not limit the Church to a nation. As regards diffusion among all nations, the terms "Roman Catholic Church" and "Catholic Church- are identical. The Catholic Church is the Roman Catholic Church, and the Roman Catholic Church is the Catholic Church, and, as the Catechism says, the Catholic Church is called Roman because the Visible Head of the Church is Bishop of Rome.

A FIRST COMMUNION GROUP.
M Y dear Monsignor Martin,— In sending these few words commending the work of the "Annals," I am not only complying with the Holy Father's wishes, but obeying his strict Among the instructions I reorders. ceived before leaving Rome, one—perhaps the most emphatic—was that I should foster the work of the Propagation of the Faith, and above all the Aboriginal Mission. It has therefore given me great pleasure to find published here an Australian Edition of the lAnnals of the Propagation of the Faith." Growth and expansion are the signs By a vigorous of life and health. support of the missions then the Australian Church shows its own spiritual health. Now these three Societies on whose behalf the "Annals" are published furnish the principal means of In the Assoassisting the missions. ciation for the Propagation of the Faith we have the central organisation and the chief support of the missions.

Besides these general aims which bring us into active touch with the missionary work of the Chstrch Catholic, through the "Annals" Australians will have direct contact with their own Mission—that to the Australian Blacks. I trust that this work will be most consoling in its results for those responsible for the "Annals." It is then with great pleasure that I commend to all the "Annals for the Propagation of the Faith.- I hope it will expand and have greater support: for this end I beg the Divine Blessing on all who co-operate in its publication and diffusion, and on all its readers. Wishing you, my dear Monsignor, every happiness, and with kind regards. Your sincerely in Christ, 4. PHILIP BERNARDINI, Apostolic Delegate. The Rt. Rev, Mons. L. Martin, P.P.

THE
Eucharistic Congress When publishing the list of speakers for the Missionary Section of the Congress, it was stated, in error, that the paper on "Catholics of the Outback" would be given by the Most Rev. R omuald Hayes, D.D. Bishop of RockHis Lordship has since hampton. informed the committee that he undertook to obtain a speaker, and has secured the services of Rev. A. P. Healion, of Longreach, Queensland. Father Healion will be in a position to speak with experience of the subject chosen, stationed as he is in such The parish of a northern outpost. Longreach has three churches—at Longreach, Isisford, and Ilfracombe— and seven far-distant outlying stations. The Most Rev. Dr. Hayes, Bishop of R ockhampton, Queensland, has consented to prepare a paper on "Enclosed Retreats for the Laity." His Lordship will read the paper at St. Brigid's on Hall, Nicholson-street, Fitzroy, The Monday, December 3, at 3 p.m. Most Rev. Dr. Ryan, Bishop of Sale, will preside at this session of the Congress. The sale of badges is proceeding satisfactory, especially in the Archdiocese Those who intend to of Melbourne. become members of Congress should do so without delay, as it is before the Congress that all the expenses must be met. It has been found necessary to stress again that there is absolutely no difference between the special membership badge and the one for orThe difference dinary membership. lies simply in the fact that the special membership brings with it the official souvenir of the Congress and entrance into St. Patrick's Cathedral on Sundays, December 2 and 9. At the close of the Congress, an elaborate official souvenir of the Congress will be issued by the committee. This is the only authorised souvenir of the Congress, and people will be well advised to guard against imposition in this matter. In the same connection, it is as well to make it perfectly clear that the Eucharistic Congress is receiving no financial benefit whatsoever from the sale of any souvenirs, booklets, pictures or other stock-in-trade of the travelling salesman. The Most Rev. T. Maguire, D.D . Bishop of Townsville, in Northern Queensland, will give a very practical paper on "The Euoharist and Daily Life." The paper will he read at 3 p.m. on Monday, December 3. at M. anresa Hall, Hawthorn. The Most Rev. Dr. Kelly, Archbishop of Sydney, has been asked to preside at the reading of this paper. Tentative arrangements are being made for the illumination of St. Patrick's Cathedral, both for the Eucharistic Congress and in keeping with the rest of the city for the arrival of the Duke of Gloucester. Consideration is being given to several schemes of illumination, and it is probable that the facade will be outlined with bright lights. The paper on "Catholic Action for men," closely connected as it is with the general theme of the National Etichanstic Congress, "The Blessed Eucharist and Catholic Action," will be a very important one, and will be given at St. Ignatius' Hall, Richmond. on Tuesday, December 4, at 8 p.m. The Most Rev. Dr. Barry will give the paper. At present Bishop of Goulburn, his Lordship is well known in Melbourne, having been Administrator of St. Patrick's before his elevation to the Episcopacy in 1924. The Bishop of Bendigo, the Most Rev. Dr. McCarthy, also a former Administrator of the Archdiocese, will preside at this session of the Congress.

The Cathedral of St. Stanislaus, Cracow, Poland Built in 1359, contains many interesting antiquities relating to the Kingdom of Poland. The Kings of Poland were crowned in this Church, which also holds the tombs of the Sigi.smirads, the silver coffin of St. Stanislaus, and the remains of John Sobieski, Poniatowslci and Kosciusko.
Willing obedience to the Bishops is one of the points discussed by the Holy Father in an autographed letter which he has addressed to the Polish Hiearchy commending them for their recent joint pastoral. The pastoral letter, which was drawn up by the Polish • episcopate. with the Archbishops and Bishops of the Uniate rite, proclaimed the eternal value of the Divine law laid down in the Gospel for the lives of individuals as well as nations and states. It concluded with these words:-Poland must remain Christian. It must become neither freethinking nor Godless nor Bolshevistic. The life o; the State may vary with regard to its form. but the spirit must remain Christian. Christian ideals must never be departed from. Catholic truth must not be frittered away, nor must hindrance be placed in the way of the Divine law. Superficial, inconsequent Christianity leads to ruin." The Pope expressed his deep gratitude for their courageous ,defence of Christian faith and the welfare of Church and State. "The joint pastoral letter." he wrote, "is for Us, a new and splendid proof of the single. ness of mind and purpose which unites you in the closest ossible way, and from which you will never depart for any reason whatever, not only in proclaiming the sacred law, but in common efforts for its defence and its observance in public life.

THE RECORD.
EIGHT That dancing is the popular evening pastime is evidenced by the fact that no fewer than seven important balls in connection with Catholic activities are catalogued in the metropolitan social list, and, in addition, almost eN:ery parish holds its weekly dance. Besides these, there are euchre and bridge parties galore, and up to date all have been well attended. The Newman Ball, which takes place on Wednesday next, is exciting great interest, especially among those who go in for the higher studies.• Their ambition is to see a Newman College established within the University in the near future. St. Gerard's is holding its annual ball on Friday next, and as there is an excellent bus service from Perth, it is safe to say that a crowd of city fo4k will, on that evening, trip the "light fantastic" in Palmyra's hall. Everything is being done by a hardworking committee to cater for the enjoyment of patrons. So many debutantes will be presented at the Catholic Ball, on August 1, that it was a wise move to arrange for it to be held in the spacious Embassy Hall. New Norcia old lxlys, and new boys, and their lady frier*, will fraternise at tlie ball to be held at the Y.A.L. on July 25. under the aegis of St Ildephonsus' College. It would be interesting to listen-in to the many reminiscences which will be exchanged on that night. The Cathedral parish is pushing ahead with its many functions, which will culminate towards the end of the year with the queen crowning. This means of raising money evidently does not obtain in U.S.A., as His Excellency the Apostolic Delegate. when officiating recently at a queen function in New South Wales, said he knew he would have a multiplicity of duties to perform in this Southern land, but he did not know that he would be asked to crown a Queen. However, he would do it willingly, although he felt a little nervous of a Queen of Clubs. Influen7a has been causing a great deal of anxiety in hornee during the

past few weeks, and old and young alike have been sufferers. One of the best preventives is to keep the body fits and this can be done by supplying warming and nourishing food and avoiding, as far as possible, wettings and draughts. When the children come from school in the afternoon they should be given a cup of hot soup. It entails but little labour, and is most inexpensive. The wise mother will also see that those under her care are w armly clad, and what looks nicer on boys and girs than the hand-knitted jersey or pull-over which can so easily be made? Warm stockings and wetproof shoes will do much towards keeping the children from catching colds. Children should never be sent to bed cold. Try letting them have ten minutes' dancing or other active exercise before turning in. They will sleep soundly and wake refreshed and ready for the day's round again.
There is a well-known saying that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. That being so, the brothers and sisters of the St. Vincent de Paul Society may well feel proud when they learn that "The Methodist," the official organ of the Methodist Church in New South Wales, not only praised the work done by these fine social service workers, but announced recently that their church had established a "Brotherhood of Service" on lines not unlike the wonderful St. Vincent de Paul Society.

Our Aborigines
The Church in Western Australia has a fair and honourable r ecord to show in its dealings with the native aboriginals. From the first moment that Perth was created a Diocese, it was the care of its first Bishop to found three Missions—north, south, and central—to the aboriginals. The Central Mission has survived to the present day—that of the Benedictines of New Norcia, who have to their credit 91 years of persevering and successful labours. New Norcia has now its principal Missions in the Kimberleys—because €,1 the fact that the majority of the aboriginals live there. The majority of the twenty-six thousand full-blooded natives in Western Australia—about one-third of the total aboriginal population of the Commonwealth—reside They have been cared for by in the North and North-West. zealous missionaries for the past twenty-five years in a Mission centre that is known all over Australia—the Drysdale River Mission. A similar apostolic work is being carried out for the natives south of this. Mission by the Pallotine Fathers, at Beagle Bay, At the moment the Beagle Bay and Broome, and Lombadina. Lombadina Missions, conducted by the Pallotine Fathers, on the coast north of Broome, are being visited by the Commissioner, Bc2.4.1e Bay was opened in 1890, and Mr. H. D. Moseley. placed in charge of the Trappists. The Pallotine Fathers took charge in 1901, and are still labouring with success among the natives. The Mission cccupies over one hundred thousand acres, and the Mission village contains about fifty separate buildings. Its population numbers about three hundred souls— the majority being full-blooded aboriginals. There is a colony for married couples, and special schools for the children—the girls under the charge of the Sisters, and the boys under the care of the Priests and Brothers. The staff of the Mission consists of two Priests and five Brothers, and six Sisters of St. John of God. The latter have conducted the school and hospital there since 19(17.

Lombadina which is fifty miles north of Beagle Bay. is another thriving Mission. :kiting from 1910. A remarkable feature of this Mission is that many of the natives for whom it caters, still live their wild life in the bush, coming in at periodic intervals to receive material and spiritual aid from the self-sacrificing missionaries. Besid2s there are over, fifty adults and thirty school children on !ie regular list. The Commissioner had the opportunity of seeing the Mission blacks at work and play. and was very much ;mpressed by the work of the missionaries. As the Missions nhist of necessity be self supported, interesting sidelights on the agricultural work of the natives were available, and much progress on the road to civilisation was notable. On the other band, the Fathers do not overlook the love of the blacks for their own tribal customs and rites, and allow them hill scope in the exercise of them, it being considered, as a result of long experience, that an immediate transition from the native to the civilised state is neither practical nor desirable. There is no more pleasant reading than the highly complimentary report of the success of our own Missions to the aborigines. Although there rn ,ist naturally remain much to be desired, it is a consolation to the true Christian to know that there are zealous missionaries whose work among the more or less abandoned blacks is bearttg much fruit. The presence of these Missions, inadequate as they must necessarily be, gives at 'least a remote opportunity to the well disposed to avail of the spiritual as well as the temporal orivileges of a Christian civilisation. Thanks to the patience and perseverance of the misionaries. the lot of these outcast tribes is made lighter, and the ravages, not infrequently due to a depraved civilisation, remedied, if not altogether relieved. It may iiave been that the earlier treatment of aboriginals was not as humane or honourable as might have been expected, but that :ndictment can no longer he laid to the charge of Australia, when one reflects on the work of the Missions—whose Only object've may truly be asserted to be the glory of their Creator and the salvation of their souls.
A Morality Play The recent presentation in Perth of a morality play reminds us of the large part which the mediaeval Church played in shaping modern English Drama. As in ancient Greece, the drama had its origin in the folk dances, ccinbats, and ritual actions of the village festivals, so in later times the morality and mystery plays of the mediaeval Church led the way for the perfection of ,English Drama as exemplified by Shakespeare. Previous to 1000 A.D., the dramatic element was confined to liturgical rites—exemplified in the gestures and formal actions of religious services, and particularly in the Mass, where the words and actions of the priest are according to strict rule. Side by side with the purely liturgical services held within the Church, there were growing up the dramatic presentations performed outside. These performances were still of a religious character, because they dealt with moral subjects, dramatising some virtue or vice, as in "morality" plays, or dramatising the miraculous in the life of some Saint, as in "mystery" or miracle plays. Some of the earliest mystery plays were "Joseph of Arimathea." "Adam," "The Harrowing of Hell," "The Corning of Antichrist." Moralities were represented by "The Castle of Perseverance." "Mankind, Will and Understanding." and The latter play. which we witnessed during the "Everyman." week, is practically the same as that performed in mediaeval times. S • • • Early in the fi fteenth century the religious drama passed out of the hands of the Church and became secularised. Numerous

humorous interludes were introduced between the acts, and the plays were performed by minstrel guilds, who formed themselveinto travelling companies, that were very much in evidence, even i in n Shakespeare's day. Although religious plays were popular even in the latter's youth, the mysteries, being more spiritual, died out prior to the moralities. In moralities contempora ry events were included side by side with the comic element, forming a near approach to the modern drama. The rise of Elizabetha eventually overshadowed the earlier medieval mysterie n drama s alities, but their influence is still noticeable in some of and morthe motr serious of modern plays. In recent years there has been .a marked revival of interest in these Christian relics of the Middle and the almost universal appeal of these productions show Ao.e, that the religious emotion of the heart, though the least is the most deeply rooted. Perth is much indebted to obtrusive, Anita Pitzgerald for the revival of this highly instructive and pleasing form of dramatic art, and it is to be hoped that "Everyman" is but the begin. fling of a series.

THE RECORD.
News and Notes The, report of the Overseas Migration Scheme is in course of preparation. It is understood that the main r ecommendations are:- --Increased migration of children from poor law institutions, extension of Government grants to voluntary organisations sending out children, the establishment of a board for co-ordinating voluntary efforts, the encouragement . of individual settlements, and no more community settlements like that in Victoria. A section of the committee considers that the recommendatiotis are too timid and insufficiently 'maginative, and they urge that the time has arrived for a serious attempt to redistribute the Empire population.

Despite the fact that they were robthe bed of the services of Bill Renton, Harry best custodianin:the West. andwinger, Davey, Victoria Park's crack who are both on the sick list, the IV.A. selectors (Messrs. Snow, Ryan, and Jeffery) have selected a side that should easily uphold football tradiThe ,--election ot tions in the West. Bub Jarvis as captain is a eery popular one. There has been no more cnnsistent footballer in the game than A SPORTSMAN TRUE— (1) Must play the game for the sake of the game. ( 2) Must play for his side and not for himself. (3) Must be a good loser as well as a good winner. (4) Must be modest in victor: and generous in defeat. 15) Must accept all decisions in proper spirit. (6) Must be unselfish and ever ready to assist others to become proficient in sport.
Jarvis this season, and he thoroughly deserves the position. He will have as his deputy Allen Shepherd, the burly Victoria Park half-back. Shepherd has been playing with the Redlegs since 1926, and in that t!rne he has represented his State on several occasions, including two Carnival teams. Although Jarvis has played his best football at the centre half-back position, Shepherd will most likely be played there. He is slow but sure, and would be useless on the flank When it was learned that Benton would he unavailable the general choice for the full back position was Fred Batt. who football this has been playing great year. The selectors thought differently. and selected veteran Dave Woods. Woods was probalAy given preference over Batt because of his greater experience Be that as it may, however.

them so far, but "Wattle" considers the place should go to Clarke, Walsh will get his chance on Tuesday. The centre position will be filled by the speedy Taylor, of East Fremantle, but the real man for the job was Harry Grigg. If ever a man earned a place in any side it was Grigg for this one. He has hardly played a poor game this season, and his omission is inexplicable. Jack Guhl has had a mortgage on the wing position all the season, and should hold his own with the best of them. Opposite him we find Johnny Bowe, who will be representing his State for the first time. The half. forward line will be led by Anderson, who previously played with Victeria. On the flanks we have Cronin and Ditchburn as the two most likely to be selected. George Doig will be goal sneak, while Screaigh and McGlinn can spell in one pocket. Merson and Little are contenders for the other pocket. Merson may be played to-day and Little on Tuesday. There appears to be an abundance of ruckmen, but the first nick will probably be W.

or foul, and when one remembers that Screaigh picked up in the goal mouth and booted the goal that won the match for East Perth against Swan, Districts on Saturday. Screaigh played well for East Perth on Saturday, and the coolness with which he kicked that goal characterised his play throughout the match. This incident recalls the opening game of the 1932 season between South Fremantle and Perth. The scores were level as the final bell rang, but the game was by no means over. Doug. Oliphant, beating the bell by a fraction, marked on an acute angle, and with the last kick of the match booted through for full points. The elation of Perth barrackers is better imagined than described. Paddy Fitzgerald Ensures Selection. If the selectors were ever in doubt as to the ability of Paddy Fitzgerald, they were definitely squashed on Saturday when the burly Victoria Park follower gave an excellent display of high marking and long kicking. and was one of the best men on the ground. Fitzgerald seldom 'passes the ball to a team mate. but prefers to boot it good and hard to the half-forwards. Paddy's motto is "Kick it as

"Mary!" That holy and formidable name is to the demons like a thunderbolt which strikes mortals down, and deprives them of their consciousness. In the wounds of Jegus Christ our Saviour's plenteous redemption is given unto us there; we receive great abundance of sweetness, great plenty of grace and perfection of all virtues.— St Augustine. Let us take no new untrodden paths in search of repose. but let us follow the old ones traced by Our Saviour and pursued by the _saints. These are no other than the paths of the Cross'and moritfication. otherwise we shall not find Jesus Christ. Every time you have the happiness of receiving Holy Communion you should grow. like Jesus. in grace and wisdom before God and men: that is . . an increase of the fear and love of God.—Rev. F. X. Lasance. Considered in themselves, tribulations are horrible: hut when one views them in the hand of God they becomz sweet and delicious.—St. Francis de sales. Work out this lesson: bring every action, word and thought to the bar of Love ,<;nrl _Tustice. THE MASS. The Mass is a true sacrifice. It is an offering to God: it is an offering of a victim, which is Jesus Christ Himself, His Body. and His Blood apart. It is offezed on the altar under the appearance of bread and wine, it is offered by -4eous Christ to His Father by the ministry of His own duly appointed priests. It is the holiest thing that even the Church possesses among all her treas. ures. It is the greatest of her mysteries: it contains all the rest . A s St. Bonaventure says: "As man' drops of water as the sea contains, as many rays tif light as come from the sun, as many as are the stars of heaven or the flowers of earth, so many are the mysteries contained in the Sacrifice of the Mass." And St. Augustine, in his own way. He says: is no less enthusiastic. "That which has riot been granted to angels has been given to men. The priest, a feeble man full of miseries, accomplishes the Sacrifice tl.at is richest in mysteries, and the spirits of heaven gather in adoration about him to serve him. BISHOP'S COUNSEL TO PARENTS. Whether these children ever reach salvation depends to an enormous extent on how their parents guide them, said Most Rev. Dr. Cullen, Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin, administering the Sacrament of Confirmation to 200 children at the Abbey Church. Graiguena-managh, recently. If parents allow them to travel the wrong road, continued his Lordship. the probabilities are they will never reach Heaven, whereas if parents place them on the right road the chances are they will continue there until they reach it. I cannot conceive any duty more important than that. Children must not only be taught and instructed in religion, but must A lesson be given good example. driven home by good example is more
effective than a lessen driven home by might. Referring to the presence of children on the streets at a late hour, His Lordship said parents should have their children at home. They were entitled to innocent amusement, but it must be reasonable and free from danger. Continuing, his Lordship said that good Catholic newspapers and books should find their way into every home. They will make a good impression on your lives, he added. A lot depends on what you read If you read what is had the result will be reflected in bad actions. USE OF TIME. Time is not to be treated as a burden to be got rid of by gossip, daydreaming, novel reading, and cinemas. If it seems to hang heavily on your hands in eternity it will seem to have passed instantaneously—like a flash. Fill up your life. hour by hour, by writing on the tablets of time acts of virtue, obligations fulfilled and deeds of kindness. What a consoling record this would be to look back upon when you are lying on your death-bed awaiting the summons of God! Banish the future: live only for the hour and its allotted work. Think not of the amount to be accomplished, the difficulties to he overcome, but set earnestly at the little task at your elbow, letting that be sufficient for the day; for surely our plain duty is "not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do wha . lies clearly at hand." A DESIRE.

The doctrine of human brotherhood and the pursuit of peace between peoples should check the growth of the anti-Jewish movement on the Continent and elsewhere. It should also prevent the plan for all-round total disarmament from becoming a fiasco.
The aim- of education should be to discover and draw out the natural capacities of a child, whether acedemic or practical, in order that he may afterwards earn his livelihood in a sphere for which his natural powers, developed and trained, are adapted.

THE WISDOM OF FATHER DEGEN
- Religious people. above all others, should not steer clear of politics. It would be wiser and more patriotic on their part to join a political organisation, and use their influence to prevent its policy from shaping on irreligious lines. A sympathetic outlook creates confidence. and it is always broader and more sympathetic than a carping. crit ical outlook, which tends to breed mistrust and despair. Only if our ideals are vital forces within us to which we surrender both in mind and heart, will they give rise to exteriorised progressive programmes of permanent value. Daily contracts with our neighbour. no matter how carefully guarded they may be. are hound to lead to occasional mistrust and misunderstandings. for the simple reason that none of us is perfect. And it sometimes happens that the more care you take the more suspicion you arouse. The information which we possess about one another is not always correct, and, in any case, it does not always produce a better understanding.

SIXTIETH YEAR.
Catholic News from Everywhere A £60,000 Catholic Church has been blessed and opened at Hednesford, Staffordshire, England, by the Bishop of Plymouth, Right Rev. Dr. Barrett.
A new quarter of Rome—the Prati— is to be the scene of this year's Roman Diocesan Eucharistic Congress. The district embraces all that part of the city that lies between St. Peter's and the Tiber, in the direction of Monte Mario. Thirty years ago this quarter had but one parish church, now it has six large parishes. One of four sisters who are making their novitiate in the house of the Sisters of Charity at Heule-lez-Courtray, Belgium, is Elizabeth De Wilde, of Courtray, who is said to have been cured of an advanced disease of the lungs at Beauraing in June, 1933. There are eight daughters in the De Wilde family. The congregation of Heule is noted for its work in the mission field of Northern Transvaal. Many German Bishops, who, came to Rome for the canonisation of St. Conrad, were received by the Holy Father Among in private audience recently. the tnglish-speaking Brshops received were Archbishop McDonald. 0.S.B., of St. Andrews and Edinburgh, and Bishop White, of Dunedin, New Zealand. M. Leon Mailte and M. Emile Guelette, on behalf of the Catholic journalists of Belgium, presented to the Holy Father the annual offering. This Year the sum reached the total of 239,000 francs. The Austrian cremation association, known as "Die Flamme," has 1,een solved by the Government. The association had many thousands of members. All who have paid money into the organisation are given the opportunity of exchanging the right of cre mation obtained by their payments for a right of interment, or of receiving in cash the money paid by them. * . * Archbishop Downey will be a member of the official party which will greet the King and Queen when Their Majesties visit Liverpool this month (July) for the opening of the Mersey Tunnel. The ceremonies on thii; no csksion will prevent the Archbishop from leading the archdiocesan pilgrimage to Lourdes His Grace's place will be taken by Bishop Dobson. • Never before in Austria has the jubilee of a newspaper proved to be such a great public event as were the . celebration of the fortieth anniversary of the foundation of the "Reichspost," the leading Catholic daily. A meeting held on the occasion was attended by Chancellor Dollfuss, his Excellency the Most Rev. Enrico Sibilia, Papal Nundo to Austria: his Eminence Cardinal Innitzer, Archbishop of Vienna; Most Rev. Ernest Se3,-del, titular Bishop ot Eurarpia; leading civil and military officials, numerous Abbots, and representatives of the clergy and of all the prominent corporations of the Austrian capital. The Holy Father sent the paper his Apostolic Blessing with the hest wishes and, as it stated in Cardinal Pacelli's telegram: " . . . imploring the help of God that out of this celebration may arise the still more ardent endeavour to make oneself through Catholic journalism highly deserving of the Church and the State." Dr. Frederic Funder, Vienna correspondent of the N.C.W.C. News Service, is chief Editor. Young archers in 15th. century costume formed a retinue for Cardinal Verdier, Archbishop of Paris, when he celebrated Mass in the open at a congress of archery societies at Anbervilliers, near Paris. A thousand archers were present. Catholics of the Gold Coast, West A frica. now number 102,586. and 37,894 natives are preparing for baptism. There are four Bishops and 82 priests.

A Splendid Record of Service Cardinal Bourne's Golden Jubilee during the lives of his great predecessors, Wiseman, Manning, and Vaughan, to enforce the claim of Catholics to full partnership in the national life. On solemn occasions, members of the Royal Family and Ministers of the Cabinet have been present. In those fifty years Cardinal Bourne has lived since his ordination he has witnessed material changes in the condition of t he Catholic Church in England, and he has long been recognised as one of the principal personages in the public life of London. On questions of national importance, or when any national appeal has to be issued, he is c onsulted by the authorities. His wise counsels have gained for him prominence in the international relations of the Church. In the Great War Cardinal Bourne gained considerable prestige, and his courageous defence of the Vatican's policy enhanced his authority.
