The Death of Do'Huss A NATIONAL CALAMITY
THE LATE DR. DOLLFITSS, The
furdered Austrian Chancellor. lllllllllll 1 11111111.
Engelbert Dol'fuss, Austria's little lion-hearted Chancellor. is dead. This five-foot dictator played a losHis ing David to Hitler's Goliath. cocksuredness and inspired determination elbowed a place for Austria on the map of Europe. but his tragic end came from the hands of those firebrands against whom he waged a relentless campaign—the Naz1s---says a "pally News" article on the death or Dr. Dollfuss. France will never have another Napoleon, Austria never another Dollfuss. The tenacity with which he thrust A ustria into the forefront of European politics made him a tremendous influnoe on international relations. It v as in May, 1932, that the Austrian President, Miklas. sent for Dollfuss. and asked him to impossible task take over the almost of forming a Government, That night —the whole of it— he spent in church, in lasting, meditation, and prayer. The next morning he called on the the job, and did President. accepted it. Months later, with the political and eccnomic p^, from had tosition of the country gone worse, the Austrian Parliament, committed suicide by the imp1e procedure of its three Presidents resigning. Thei-e. was nothing in the tion, soConstitution to cover the situaDollfuss. accepting it as a Sign. in. and from then ruled jumped the country without benefit he of P arliament. The success of the National Social s in April Ss ehance. of 1932 gave Dr. Dollfuss The provincial Diets of Vienna, Lower Austria, and Salzburg t returned increased number.i of .

The eral Si Chancellor, Dr. Buresch. regned On Mar 6 when the Heimwehr n'ade th • net ,ia coalit7onparticipation in the Cabi• n dependent on a politiwitt.u close the to them em being entrusted f ormation of a Cabinet. On
May 20, -Dr. Dollfuss, who was Minister for Agriculture in the Buresch Cabinet, formed a Government in which, in addition to the ChristianSocialists and members of the Agrari n League, a partison of the Home Defence (Heimwehi) was included. One of the first things the Dollfuss Cabinet did was to approach the League of Nations for a loan. On July 15 the loan was granted by the League Council, and it was for 300,000,000 schillings (a schilling being about 7d. in English money), and Austria engaged to refrain from any measure during the lifetime of the loan (20 years) which might compromise her political or economic independence. Relying on the speedy influx of loan funds, the Austrian Government early last year resumed provisionally the service of the international loans of 1923 and 1930. which had been suspended since June 23, 1932. The internal political situation of the country took on a sharper edge. During the Parliamentary debate concerning a short demonstrative strike ot the railwaymen, the three presidents of the National Council successively resigned. This produced a
situation for which the Constitution • Austria in spite of the strong NaAct had not made provision, there be- tional-Socialist agitation, but the Goving nobody qualified to take the chair ernment, with a view to eliminating in the House.

Internal quiet was maintained in mans, and the rest small minorities of other races, such as 60,000 Slovenes, 50.000 Czechs. 40.000 Croatians, and 13.000 Magyars. It will thus be seen that Dr. Dollfuss needed courage of no mean order to stand up and tell Herr Hitler to mind his own business. Austria comprises nine States, or Bundeslander, the most populated area being Vienna, where there are nearly two million people. To arrive at a correct judgment of the difficulties with which Austria has had to contend since the end of the Great War, and which have considerably increased in the last two years, because of the progressive slump of world economy, the position should be considered which existed after the exhausting war and the hunger blockade. What remained after the Treaty of St. Germain as the Republic of Austria (then called German Austria) is but a small remnant of the old monarchy, separated from its most important markets, which presents an unfortunate structure because as a national and economic unit it is limited to a number of mountainous provinces with an unproportionately large capital city.

Austria to-day is landlocked, thus increasing its difficulties for trading. Her immense coalfields are now distributed amongst a- number of nations She herself retaining only about 1 per cent. of the original coal deposits of Austria-Hungary. The manner in which Austria was carved up by the Peace Conference, without thought to its production possibilities and industries, was ceflainly one of the bad blunders of the conference, but , the manner in which the country responded to its dead leader's call for a selfcontained empire is one of the wonders of the modern world. The little Chancellor astonished the world by his defiance of the Nazis and his expulsion of the Nazi Ministers. In a speech which now has tragic significance, Dr. Dolliuss declared: "I have no fear ot the Nazis, either here or in Germany. I shall protect Austria's independence from attacks within the country or without. We desire in Austria only to live in peace and friendship with -Germany, but we shall not suffer any threat to our independence."

An American judge was trying a case in which a negro witness was to play an important part. To impress upon him the solemnity of the oath, the judge warned the witness: "Now, Zachary, you know what happens if you don't speak the truth?"

"Here, what are You doing?" he ask. ed the intruder. "Looking for money," the burglar said. "Oh, all right. I'll go back to bed If you find any, give me a shout, will You?" The old lady from the country was really enjoying herself. "What's that big place?" she asked her niece, who was acting as her guide. The girl looked up at the office builot ing towering high above them. "Oh!" she exclaimed, "that's a sky. scraper." "Really!" beamed the old lady. "I'd love to see it work." Brown: "Great Scott, postman. whatever it it?" Postman: "Well, sir, the label says ' wild duck.' but they're 'umming birds now."

RECEPTION OF NOVICES AT LOUGHGLYNN CONVENT. A reception ceremony was held at the Convent of the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary, Loughglynn, County Roscommon, on the feast of St. An thony. The four novices who received the habit at the hands of Rev. Father Brendan Jennings, 0.F.M., of Merchants' Quay, Dublin, were: Sister " Mary of St. Kvran (Miss Margaret Byrne, Athlone): Sister Mary of St. Eric (Miss Josephine Freeman, Loughgls-nn) ; Sister Mary of St. Carmac (Miss Annie Rooney. Manorhamilton); and Sister Mary of St. Ivor (Miss Agatha Devill, Dublin). A large gathering of relatives and friends of the novices assisted at the ceremcny. Father Brendan, in his address, commended to the novices as their model the great saint upon vhose feast day they were receiving the habit both on account of his own personal virtues and his zeal and charity for the salvation of his neighbour. Irish missionaries, moreover, would also have as their models those great saints of their race who had carried the gospel of Christ all through Europe and stemmed the tide of paganism, with which it was then threatened. In modern times, Irish missionaries were once more going forth to preach the gospel to the infidel and pagan. It was a proof of the splendid vigour of our Faith that Ireland had scarcely passed out of the days of persecution when she again took up this glorious 'kyork.

THE RECORD.
s
A Leaf From Spanish Records honours awaited him. He became first Archdeacon of Trevino, then Bishop of Carthagena, and finally a mem ber of the regency of Castille and Archbishop of Burgos. The little son of eleven who was baptised with his father, lived to be BiAlop of Astoria, of Placentia, and of Signenza. He became one of the most learned men in Spain, and present at the Council of Basel as a delegate from Aragon. Then there is Abiathar ha Kohen (Esther of Saragossa), who married a son of the King of Aragon in the 15th. century, whilst her sister, Leah, became the wife of a Spanish noble, Marano Martin Sanchez. From these daughters of the priestly home (Ho Kohen) some of the Spanish ar istocracy are descended. Alexander de Pranciscis Hebraeas became a tinguished Dominican orator and author. He was appointed View General and Bishop of Foolica, Italy. Alfonso de Zanora, baptised in 159e with his father, became Professor of Oriental Languages at Salamanca. He wrote to the Jews in Rome in both Latin and Hebrew. and made transla tions of Commentaries on Isaias and ,Teremias. Aqui de Phillipe (Morde cai) was a learned and yoluminou; writer. The brothers Baena were both Spanish poets. Daville Diego Arias, Minister and confidante of Henry IV. of Castille, died in 1406. He and his family were converted by St Vincent Ferrer, and his second son became Bishop of Segovia. Diego de Valcacia exchanged his gift of satirical verse for the gentler lyrics of Francis of Assisi. Entering that Order, some time in the 15th. century, he became Doctor of Theology, of science, astrology, and a master of science of that day. These are hut a few names chosen at random from a long list. They were learned and devout men, scme confidants and physicians to their Spanish monarchs, others trusted and beloved ecclesiastics of the Catholic Church.
The Eucharistic Congress The actual altar cn which Mass will be celebrated at the Show Grounds has been kindly lent by the Very Rev. Dean Goidanich, V.F.. of Ararat. It is , the altar which was formerly in the Church of the Immaculate Conception, .-krarat. and which was recently replaced by a marble structure. The throne for the Monstrance covered by the Corona and Royal Mantle, will be built up behind this altar. Two statues of adoring angels, facing towards the throne, will be placed at the extreme ends of the altar. Immediately before the final Benediction at the tyenty-first International Eucharistic Congress at Montreal, Canada, in 1910, the Cardinal Legate made a solemn proclamation of the Kingship of Christ. It is intended to make a similar public declaration of loyalty to Christ the King at the close of the Centenary Eucharistic Congress on December 9. Before the singing of the "Tantum Ergo" the Papal Legate will solemnly acclaim the sovereignty of Jesus Christ
before the kneeling thousands of His faithful subjects. It is felt that this will provide a fitting termination to the week of Congress and a worthy climax to the splendour of the Eucharistic procession. In a letter to his Grace the Archbi5!hop from the mother house of the Salesian Order in Turin, the Very Rev. P. tRicaldone, Superior -General. expresses his gratitude for an invitation that the arduous duties of his high office make it impossible for him to accept. He writes: "The rendering of the homage of an entire people to the Immortal King of Ages, hidden under the sacramental veils, is something than which no better method could have been conceived of celebrating worthily the centenary of Melbourne and Victoria.

mumummumummimmilimumummumumwmil imumummomoilb HOW to KEEP the The
Eminent Jew Converts A particularly interesting iist of converted Jews comes from Spain— naturally so, when we consider the high level of culture which obtained in that country and in Portugal amongst Jews and Moor as well as the Christian inhabitants. Not only was a Missionary Seminary established in Spain, hut disputations were held by Jewish Christian theologians and rabbis in the presence of the most learned and the most !distinguished of the grandees of Spain. Such was the conference of Tortosa in Aragon in the year 1413, when the most renowned and famous rabbis of the time were ranged against Christian notabilities. Amongst the latter was the Hebrew Christian, Andreas Baltram, whc afterwards became Bishop of Barcelona. The meeting lasted from February, 1413, to November, 1414. The result was wonderful. All the :fewish disputants, with the exception of two, admitted the Messiahship of Jesus of Nazareth, declaring that they were fairly and utterly vanquished. Upwards of five thousand Jews made a public confession of their faith and were baptised. But before this we have the physician, of Alfonso VI., of Aragon, who died in 1110. He wrote a series of twelve dialogues between "Moses and Pedro"—that is. between himself as a Jew and a Chris tian—besides other treatises. Abner of Baggos. another physician, learned in the Talmud, in philosophy. and in astronomy, was sixty years of age when the Heavenly Vision came to him. The old man found time to make his voice heard in no less than eel:: works, which he published as his "Apologia." Paul de Burgos (Solomon ba Sevi). horn in 1350. was the wealthiest and most prominent Jew in that city. Up to his forti:sth year he was a Rabbi: then, afte- diligent study of both Old and Neements and the works of Saint Thomas Aquinas. he accepted baptism. High

The death occurred on Thursday, at the Hospital of St. John of God, Subiaco, of Mrs. Annie O'Callaghan, of Goderich-street.

The late Mrs. O'Callaghan was a very fervent Catholic, and never missed morning Mass and Holy Communion Of late, however, failing for years. health prevented her from attending the Cathedral, but she had made arrangements for the priest to bring her Holy Communion at regular intervals She was particularly devoted to the First Friday Holy :Communion, and even in her failing health never missed the privilege of Holy Communion. She was indeed a most exemplary Catholic mother, and her passing removes one of the grand old pioneers whose place it will he difficult to fill.
model of what a Catholic mother's should be, and her death will be deeply mourned lav her many friends, and particularly by the members of her own family circle, to whom she was a loving and trusted counsellor. Particularly will she be missed by the priests of the Cathedral Parish, to whom she was always most considerate, and who were frequent visitors to her home in Goclerich-street.
The deceased lady was att.incled by her son—Father Geralct—in her last moments at the hospital, and her death was a fitting close to a devout and exemplary life. The Requiem Mass for the repose of her soul was celebrated this morning at the Cathedral by His Grace the A rchbishop. In the Sanctuary were all the priests of the metropolitan area, who testified by their presence to their esteem for the deceased lady, and for their fellow-priest. The Priests' Choir supplied the music of thc Mass, and Mr. Taylor, who presided at the organ, played the Dead March, as a final tribute. His Grace the Archbishop, after the Absolutions at the catafalque, referred in feeling terms to the sterling quali ties of the deceased, whom he had known personally for many Years. He e xtended the sympathy of the priests, Dr. Prendiville, and himself to all the members of the family, and particularly to their own confrere and fellowpriest, Father Gerald.

South Australia, Jack Keneally, and Herb Madden, of Sydney, all send along greetings, with a budget of interesting gossip of local doings. The Sydneyites have secured their financial quota for the coming Carnival. It is anticipated that over five hundred will be assembled for the annual combat, and to partake in a social programme of rare events. The Local Team. Already several prominent players have signified their intention of being available for selection if their form meets with the approval of the selecAmongst those will be Mr. tors. Tom Anderson, who so capably captained the Melbourne team. Tom has been in all carnival teams from t he West, and is considered, one of the most astute players in the ranks. The list of supporters who will climb up the gangway of the Karoola on December 20 is growing each month, consequently the "invaders" will again be in strong force. Social Events. The dance in the Green Room on Friday evening was well patronised, and proved an outstanding social success. We were glad to welcome a few ,who graced the social as their initial outing of Association functions. A t the Francatelli, on Monday evening, under pleasant and homely surroundings a bridge party was held. The event, although a success, was conspicuous for the fact that several members possess promises of a piecrust variety. When parties are definitely promised, it is regretted that they do not stand by their word. Another feature was the fact that pro minent clubs, such as Wattle. Columba, Nedlands and St. Kevin's, (lid not even send a stereotyped apology. The Perth Catholic Young People's Club and Fremantle C.Y.M.S. tennis section apparently never read "The Record." o therwise they might by way d change patronise at least one social gathering. PeraconaL Members who had the pleasure ot meeting that popular member of the South Australian party—Miss Denise Kiley—will regret to hear that she tried conclusions with a motor car in Adelaide with dire results. "Den" was conveyed to hospital. and had to peep out of a bundle of bandages for several weeks. We all wish this genial light-hearted player a speedy recovery. Greetings to Rene Grey on attaining her majority. This prominent member of St. Brigid's Club has been a great worker in all Association activities, as well as being an "A" Grade player for several seasons. Rene has been in two carnival teams.

Unsettled Austria It is now twenty years since the murder of the Austrian Crown Prince upset the peace of Europe, and plunged the world The baneful effects of that into a war unparalelled in history. holocaust still remain, and the Treaty which followed has, unMore parfortunately, failed to restore peace to the world. Germans, vanquished case of the so in the this been has ticularly who had to pay the penalty -of aggression, by the dismemberment of the Empire and its Allies. The alliance of Austria Hungary with Germany was broken up, and Austria Hungary itself was sub-divided into a lesser Austria and a lesser Hungary. Vienna and Budapest became the centres of two small, relatively insignificant States, whose independence, guaranteed by the Peace Treaty, tended, as was anticipated, to widen the breach among the German peoples. It was naturally, in the interest of Britain, France and Italy, to see that no attempt at unification was attempted. Notwithstanding the appeal which independence made to the sub-divided States, there still remained a spark of that wider patriotism which embraced the ideal of a re-united German people. Austria must be united to Hungary, and both to Germany. This was the spirit of the Anschluss—German union with Austria— which received its strongest impulse from a Nazi Government in Germany, and Nazi propaganda in Austria. The spirit of Hitler fired the German people with a new, but dangerously barbaric, ideal of re-union, a spirit which has met with little response in Austria save by a disgruntled minority. Foremost in the fight for the maintenance of Austrian independence was the late murdered Chancellor, who waged relentless war on any attempt at Nazi influence. It is this suppressed minority, allegedly supported by German money, which is held responsible for the death of Dollfuss. Germany, as might be expected, has denied all complicity in the outrage, but Hitler's profession of innocence has not satisfied the three great Powers, who hold briefs for Austria, more particularly Italy, which has an additional reason for its opposition to the Anschluss, because of the large German population which it cowrols in the Tyrol. There the matter stands for the moment, and Austria, with its seven million people, has suddenly assumed a position of international political importance. Whatever be the result. it ,seems certain that the death of Dollfuss will but strengthen the forces which are opposed to foreign domination, and stand for internal unity—and this particularly in the face of the utterly callous nature of his assassination. His loss is a national calamity, and his position will be filled with difficulty. Apart from the national calamity, his passing must bring with it to every high minded Christian, a deep sense of personal loss. For Dollfuss was a man of very high ideals and of deep religious convictions, in a country which is notable for its loyalty to the Faith. In his fidelity to Faith and Fatherland, he proved himself a worthy successor to the late Monsignor Seipel, in whose vault he lies temporarily interred. Unlike Hitler. his fellow dictator, he has shown the world that it is possible to respect the religious convictions of others, while being intensely tenacious of his own. Apart from his political influence, Catholic Austria will revere his memory as one who made God the Ruler of the State, and did his utmost to lay its foundations- on the principles of justice and charity. In the words of Mark Antony, it may be said of him that: His life was gentle. and the elements so mixed in him, that Nature might stand up and say to all the world: "This was a man!"

A . well known Catholic personality passed away in Melbourne on Sunday last. in the person of Mrs. Emma Smith. The deceased lady was the mother of our highly respected conductor of the Cathedral Choir—Mr. Sydney Smith—and is survived by het husband, two sons, and a daughter. Born in Ballarat, she was a very active worker in the cause of charity, and was a prominent figure in musical circles in the city. Requiem Mass was celebrated at the cathedral on Tuesday morning for the repose of her soul. "The Record" extends its sincere sympathy to Mr. Sydney Smith and the bereaved family. R.I.P. •
Father Long, M.S.C., recently visited that part of his parish known as the 13arkly tablelands. Mass was given at Brunette., Alexandria, The Rankine, Camooweal, Banka Banka, and Barrow Creek. There was a plague of rats at the time, and at night, when camped out, these rodents scampered all around the missiGnary party, squeaking and fighting amongst themselves. Tfee Catholic Bush Mission, which, takes in an area of over 300.000 square miles, was founded by Father Long in 1928, to minister to the Catholics of Centralia. Since then he has traversed thousands of miles, enduring all kinds of hard ships, to bring the consolations of our holy Faith to the settlers. One time he had to walk 45 miles, and on another occasion his utility truck was bogged in mud for a day and a half. Much help is needed to carry on this apostolate of the bush, and those who would like to help should write. Rev. Father Long, M.S.C., Alice Springs, Centralia.

O 'Reilly Battles Hard. Although this is Ken O'Reilly's first season with the Combine, it is by no means his first taste of League football, as he previously played with East Perth for a couple of years. With the exception of Clarke, Batt, and Hough, there has probably been no more consistent player in the Tiger's ranks than O'Reilly. He was always in the picture at Bassendearr on Saturday, and his good work on the half forward lines paved the way for more than one of his side's goals. O'Reilly puts every ounce of energy into his football, and has eyes for nothing but the ball. It will be remembered that when O'Reilly was playing with Young Easts he crashed into the goalpost while running for the ball. A good mark and an accurate kick. O'Reilly seldom receives much in the wa ,upport from his team mates.

Mr. F. Townsend; treasurer Mr. B. Roddy; secretary. Mr. C. Hansen; assistant secretary, Mr. R. Sharpen: warden. Mr. J. Caldow; librarian, Mr. L. James; committee, Messrs.

Father Ryan, who, in reply, thanked the president for his kind remarks, and assured the members that he was only too pleased to give his services when required. Also during the proceedings. Rev.

Where would Catholicity be, and where will it be, if those who have had the grace to be born in it, or brought to it, are not brave enough to persevere in it until the'ir dying breath? and if in ages past martyrs have testified to it with their blood, it is because the Faith has been nurtured in their souls by every help that Holy Church could give them in their childhood. in their youth, and in those maturer years when they have been called upon to suffer for or deny the principles they maintained. Our Busbies can't get what we so easily get. Daily Mass. daily Holy Cornmunion are impossible for them because of the distances that sepal ate the priet from his flock, nor for many, can either of these great and nourishing graces be obtained weekly or monthly. The Busbies' Scheme aids somewhat surely in combating the indifference that is likely to spring up with such privations. Its lessons in correspondence, the regular arrival of Catholic literature through its "adoption movement" are practical channels of substitution from which tinimaginable grace; may fiov into the home, or rather the souls therein, ' if the spark of our Catholicity and does not catch on to this apostolic mission it cannot be burning too brightly or unselfishly within us.

There was panic at 'St. Anthony's," the day the calf took sick, She got cold shivers down her back and her tongue looked very thick. Her tail had not the energy to whisk awav a fly, And the uninformed who looked at her declared that she would die. They told the ,Rev.

The Reverend Mother who was new was feeling strange and raw, She'd been a teacher all her life and maybe long before: An authority on languages, mathematics and Charles Dickens. She owned she was a novice with the cows and pigs and chickens.

"Glory be!" said handy Andy. "she don't drink it from a pail." "Oh, 'Betty' dear, what's wrong with your the plaintive nuns all cried. "Have you got the collywobbles or a pain in your right side?" The calf began to bellow: her month began to foam-. So Andy said to ring the vet., and see if he was home. The veterinary arrived at last, and gave the calf a dose, But "Betty" gave it hack again and looked much more morose; ."I'm afraid," the vet, said testily, "she won't take castor oil, And when calves refuse my treatment it makes my temper boil." Some member of the Sisterhood with faith deep and slcure. Suggested Lourdes Water as a safe and perfect cure: Another said: "My father oft' cured creatures of her ilk, By putting a wee medal of St. Benedict in the milk."
" . . . . benedictionem tuam . . . creaturam istam . . ." then The priest closed down his Ritual; the nuns all said "Artien."

For no man can love God with sincerity, or with a love worthy of Him, that shall fix a limit to his love, or that shall not aspire cont;nually to a higher degree of it.—Dom Benedict WeldBlundell. THE REDEEMER. Down the long vista of six thousand years We strain our eyes the mighty ones to see, Whose names the page of human history bears. Who ruled the Earth in pomp and panoply. The shades of night have fallen over each! The Caesar's glory vanished like a dream; Cyrus and Alexander myths now seem, And "dust to dust" the sermon that they preach. But on Judea's hills a Figure stands Which time nor distance hath the power to dim Though round Him shine no glittering courtier bands— The poor—the simple—were the friends of Him, Unchanged and changeless shall He he the same When fades the last bright dream of human fame. —Eleanor F. Kelly, in "Messenger of Most Precious Blood." CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CASES. One of the nuns who had recently arrived in South Africa. unfolded before her pupils a large picture of St. John the Baptist. and expected to impress upon them by the story of his penitential life. "St. John- the Baptist," she explained. "lived in the desert and ate locusts and wild honey." The effect of her -eloquence was just the contrary to what she had hoped for. "Locusts!" exclaimed the children. "How delicious !"- And an expressive movement of the lips showed how they appreciated the dainty. "Wild honey. too! Just think . . . . Sister. I should like to go and live in a desert." Umfanvana gazed open-eyed at the picture. Suddenly he placed his fat little finger on a magnificent palm tree loaded with fruit. "Look at that, then!" he shouted enviously. "He's got cocoa-nuts, too!" The clothing of camel skin, so rough and heavy, excited no idea of penance in the minds of these inhabitants of the forest. "Why, he could leave it off if he wanted to." philosophically remarked another. An older girl added: "Anyhow, hs looks very strong and very healthv."—"Annals of the Propagation of the Faith."

Musical Setting of "Around the Boree Log." A collection of 20 songs Words with piano accompaniment. Music by Dom by "John O'Brien." Complete volume, S. Moreno, ,O.S.B. Published by Pel7/6, plus postage. legrini and Co. Dom Moreno is to be congratulated on making such a successful alliance between the poetry of "Patin O'Brien" and the music he has wedded to it. A difficult task this, of catching up the true spirit of another's inspiration, and setting twenty varied poems to a kindred musical accompaniment, but, in each case, the masterly mind and sensitive soul of the gifted composer has captured the mood of the poet, so that he has enhanced and not drawn from his brother-priest's artistry.

It containr among its thirty-odd items. the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary, but we think the "Method of Hearing Mass" for each day in the week could have been excluded from this compilation without it being missed, since in harmony with the liturgical movement of the day, every religious uses her Missal during the Holy Sacrifice, and finds her needs fulfilled therein. A s there will surely be further editions of this useful vade-mecum, might we suggest that the Litanies (in Latin and English )of the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph be included in preference to some less popular litanies that are in the present hook. For instance, very few nuns have time to recite the Litany of the Guardian A ngel. and T think most of them are too busy trying to doGod's Will to *spend their moments saving the Litany of Resignation, but whether they have time or not, they will make it for the recitation of the Litany of Our Lady and Her Glorious Spouse. and it is disappointing not to find them in this little Companion, which will be valued by its cloistered recipient.
