There is a question in the Catecnism which asks: "Why did God the Son become man?" And the answer "God the Son became man to redeem and save us." To redeem, redemption, the Redeemer—what beautiful words! These words contain within themselves the Mystery of the Incarnation, whereby God the Son became man, tool: flesh and dwelt amongst us. For why the Incarnation? It has ro answer unless we speak of the Redeemer; He who came on earth to redeem us, to buy us back, to pay cur ransom, to sever the chains that held human nature captive, to free us from thc powers of evil, to restore. to US our lost birthright, that birthright which Adam and Eve forfeited. By the redemption we became "a chosen generations, a kingly priesthood, a holy nation, a purchased peo pie." (I. Peter, II., 9.1 'The Re
deemer brought us back int, the kinship of God, making us So. s if God, and heirs to the Kingtom of Heaven. The Peak of History. The redemption remains the great fact, the peak point of history, the focal centre from which everything radiates. The story of mankind may b.: illustrated by a high mountain surniounted by a cross. Here is the ancient world, the ages before the Redeemer came and we see men and women toilin.,; painfully upwards towards the desired of nations. In the Old Law people believed in the hope of a Ree.eme.- to come, their eyes on the future, a religion oi promise in their hearts. And Jesus Come3. A t last the day dawns when He who was to come, came. "And the Word was made Resh and dwelt amongst us." 0 blessed night of Dethlehem, when Mary brought forth her first born child and laid Him in a manger! And we watch His pilgrimage from Bethlenem to Calvary.

Thus was our ransom paid; by His Blood the debt was cancelled, the guilt was washed away, the curse of inheritance was banished—mercy, pardon, grace, heaven, were all purchased by this abundant price. How truly does St. Peter exclaim in the words of my text: "You were not redeemed with corruptible things as gold or silver . . . but with the Precious Blood of Christ, as of a lamb unspotted and undefiled." We may judge a thing by what it How priceless then in the costs. sight of God is the soul of sian, a soul that was redeemed not with gcld OT silver, but ransomed and bough* by the Precious Blood of the Son of man! On the summit of the mountain stands the cross, the new standard that Christ places before men, as He moves down to bring the fruits He who of the redemption to all. would take that standard from Him must first ascend the mountain, aryl there, at the foot of the cross, learn to appreciate the value in the sight of Haying grasped God of one soul. that truth, he may then take the standard in his hand, and go forth as an apostle and missionary, so that the shadow of the cross may fall 04 un fortunate sinners.

At a race meeting a bookmaker was busy paying out a crowd of impatient creditors, and the combined effect of avoirdupois and financial losses was beginning to manifest itself in a, growing shortness of temper A few minutes after settling up a very timid-looking man came up to him and, in a trembling half-whisper, said: "I'm afraid there's been a mistake about the money I won.The bookmaker gave a pungent and trenchant summary of the man's in.

Jesus. The holy name thus half pronounced by the baby, is so lovely and full of pathos as to defy all Christian eloquence. There is a very nice story about Blessed Suso and the Name of Jesus. It is this: The Blessed Suso had so great a devotion for the Holy Name of Jesus that he one day took a sharp knife, and with it cut the letters of that holy name on his breast. When he had done this, he knelt down before his crucifix, and said to his beloved Master: "Thou seest, i0 Lord, how much I love Thee, and the great desire I have of being united to Thee. Oh, dwell now and for ever in my heart, and may Thy holy Name be To the Catholic ever written there." mothers my message is: "Jesus does not want you to write His Holy Name in your children's breast, as the Blessed Suso did, but He desires you to write it with letters of love."

Of all the missionaries twat 'save ascended the mountain ot God, there to receive the standard of redempthn, upon one alone has the Church bethe stowed the distinctive title of "most zealous doctor"—namely. on St. Alphonsus Mary de Ligouri, the foundA er of the Res!emptorist Fathers. glance at his long life will show how truly he has deserved such a title. We gaze with wondering eyes upon the zeal that consumed him, that drove him on tirelessly, endlessly. in spite of bodily infirmities, against the strong and binding claims of filial and family low, surmounting the innum• erable obstacles that good but misgt. icled men placed before. hito over ccrning the dissension and disleyalty of those around him, attacked in pub' lic and private—onwards the zealous missionary marched in the cause of Him, Whose standard he bore in tr•timph through the long apostolate that What a life ended in his 90th. year. was his! As priest, as missionary, as Bishop, the zeal of the Lord consumed him with a thirst and hunger for souls. as no miser hungered and thirstHe knew what reed for gold. demption was, what a price was paid for souls, and then nothing could stay him. Speaking to a congregation such as you, assembled in his own church, served by his own sons, I need not recall that life to you, the facts of which have been told to you so often by his own sons, and told more impress sivelY that ever I could hope to do. The Triumph of Pailure. From those overcrowded 90 -rears I select only two periods. but they gie..! us two very illuminating pictores ot the great saint. A t the age of 16, Alphonsus Ligouri took his degree as Doctor in both In the year laws, Canon and Civil. 1723, a cause celebte between two noble families attracted the attention of Italy. Alphonsus, the legal luminary of Naples, was briefed by ore He was sweeping alone, sure, house, apparently", of victory, wf en one day, the opposing counsel flourished a "Your case. Don Al paper in court. fonso,” said he, "is worthless There is a clause here that des4.roys your Alphonsus took the paper brief." and read the words which ruined ease at the foundation. M had read that paper many times before this. out never had he noticed such a He was thunderstrudc, everclause, whelmed. Honour, reputation. prosHe rushed from pects, seemed lost. the courts, the scene of eight years of triumph. He locked himself into nis room. refusing to eat or sleep, or receive anyone for three days, so rleep was the wound to his self esteem. But God had other work for the young lawyer. Into the darkness of these three days of mental torture there darted a blinding lie, such a light as had burst upon the persecutor Saul, on the road to Damascs4r.' The wounded soul of Alphonsus saw the world—its praise and success, its sneers and applause, in the light of eternity, and weighed on these infallible scales he found them waning, dnd vowed that he would se-,,e these no more. "World, I know you not, he exclaimed. "Courts, yoit shall never see me more." or did they. And when the Lord showed h -r' what hard things he should have shoulder for His sake, no power on e•arth could hold him hack. Onwards hp went, even though he had to leave home without his father's bleszing. "Never to Lose a Moment." The second picture that I wish you t s remember, also concerns -a decision. w hich Alphonsus made when abont 50 years of age. He took upon himself the terrible obligation of "never losing a moment of time.In ths process of his canonisation this vow :s spoken of as "new, characteristis of Alphonsus, and, worthy of ,!trrnal praise." And such indeed it was. Neyer. to my knowledge, had any child of the Church vowed sneh a thing to God. Alphonsus made the vow and .50 years as priest. missionars . and Bishop he faithfully kept it He began to write, and kept writing until his aged hand corr.:4 no longer hold a pen. St. Thomas Aquinas had done all his writings before he was fifty. St. Alphonsus wrni almost fifty when he began. and., vet, the official list of his writings contain 156 ascetical works, 23 dogmatic treatises, and 73 works in moral theology. Do not think for a moment that the missionary had become a hermit in his cell, copying all the day, and half the night. By no means, the by -ways of the city of Naples still reechoed his missionary steps as he went in search of souls. And when, at the age of 66, the mitre of St. Agatha of the Goths came to Alphonsus, no Bishop ever

Given such a make-up and equipment, wisely and discerningly cultivated with consummate skill and judgment by Miss Garnaut, who has been wholly responsible for his musical training, it is scarcely to be wondered at that Philip's career. since his initial conert, given in November, 1932, at the age of ten years, in Adekide,. should be one long series of triumphs — with artistic packed houses. Philip's career reads alroost like a fairy tale. He was b-uught to Miss Garnaut when 5+. years rif age, and she, very reluctantly (on account of his tender years:( agreed to give him lessons. Short' ly afterwards the father died, and the boy was placed wholly in her At seven his progress had care. been so remarkable that he passed the Grade 4 examination with 99 per cent.. and at nine he swept all before him in Grade 1 and 2. winning an scholarship open against students of all ages. Numerous offers were caade to Miss Garnaut to allow him to play at parties and recitals, but only to Lady Hore-Ruthven, wife of the Governor of South Australia. was the request g,rante4. He played three times at Government House and made his first public appearance when ten years of age. at the Adelaide Town Hall. Since then he has appeared in every State of Australia. Miss Fisher, her niece, who' assists Miss Garnaut in looking aftei Philip, is herself a gifted musician and at 12 years of age won the Elder scholarship for the violin., giving her three years' instruction at Adelaide Conservatorium. A t 16 she was awarded a three years' travelling scholarship .entitling her to study in Europe. and was the youngest student ever to gain one of these coveted awards. Owing to her youth, however, her father would not permit her to accept it. Al though she does not play professionally. Mips Fisher still play, the violin for her own enjoyment her instrument being a valuaHe Stradivarius. Enthusiasm of Audiences. Messrs. J. and N. Tait arranged a tour of the Eastern States during 1933. In Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane his experience was exactly the same. He broke all records of previous sucecsses. performing again and again to audiences full of, the wildest enthusiasm and as tightly crowded into the halls as circum- . stances would permit. "Fidelio," the well known Perth musical critic, says of him: -The phenomenon of 12-year-pld Philip Hargrave, who gives ..piano recitals with the aplomb of a mature virtuosso. has decidedly - stirred the town. As an artist he was again nothing less than- staggering. His unerring instinct 'for the right relative values, down to very fine points of style, balance and interpretation, is well-nigh uncanny. The boy's obvious absorption in the music from the moment he takes his seat will hear stressing—absorption not in a task hut in something to rejoice and revel in. To say that again one heard marvels is to state a commonplace All that happens when young Hargrave embarks on a recital partakes of, the marvellous." A fter his season in Perth, he will proceed to tour Tasmania and New Zealand. Philip will be accompanied by his teacher, Miss Garnaut, appointment recently as his whnse legal guardian by the Court of South Australia secures the continuance of that perfect combination of developmental and executive ability, the result of which is "Philip w onder boy pianist of Hargrave. the South Australia." 41 vie His guardian and tutor tookPhilip to the Palace on afternoon, t o pay a courtesy Sunday call on His Grace and His Grace the Coadjutor Archbishop.

SOCIAL NOTES
The Sacred Heart annual ball will eventuate this week, and judging by the enthusiasm of the committee, should- be one of the most successful of the season. It is being hela at the Embassy on August 15. The Catholic Ball was the success it deserved to be, and the debutantes, in their youth and beauty, and wearing becoming frocks, made a charming picture as they advanced with their partners towards the ecclesiastical throne. From an Eastern States paper we learn that, as a function where Her Excellency Lady Isaacs received the debutantes, the committee had made a huge "coming-out- cake, and after the Lancers had been danced, theyand their partners, with the vice-regal party, repaired to the supper room. The upper tier of the three-decker cake was presented to Her Excellency, while the rest was divided among -the friends of those who were, that evening, launched on the social sea. Perhaps next year a similar pleasing addition will be made to our chief social function. It is safe to say that fashions change weekly, for each 'mail brings news of something new . and striking The huge in the matter of dress. hats that are being depicted in the illustrated magazines will, no doubt, be They worn here in the early spring. certainly are more suited to our hot days than were the tiny shapes that served us for the last couple of sza,One wonders how the fair sons. wearers whose hair is still short will manage to keep them on when the Perhaps we shall wind is blowing. see ribbons tied under the chin, though such would be far from comfortable on a hot day, and elastic would be far from satisfactory without the "bun" to hold it in place.

Dear Suffering Sinner,—Please God your work with the cards will go far to alleviate the sufferings that may be in store beyond the bourne, and you have chaperoned so many other cards that I was not the least worried about the two, knowing well they would return to me with profit. Sandy must be saving the ink as well as the stamps these times, as he is a silent factor. AUNT BESSY. Denmark Dear Aunt Bessy,—Happening to pick up a "Record," or, to be truthful, having had one sent to me. I saw therein that you were still chasing the elusive pennies for Your beloved Busbies. Well, here's best wishes for your success (not coin of the Realm!) a few old stampsswhich will mean a few pennies anyway, ind five shillings for two cards to help you on your way. We have some of your Bushies nearby, and on the occasion of the Coadjutor's visit to Nornalup they made the journey by horses and carts, fifteen miles. and fasting. Again best w ishes! GROUPIE CHALKIE. Dear Groupie Chalkie,—You naughty boy, only that you are a cousin to my Wee Scotch Lass I would scold you for upsetting an old lady's heart. When I opened Your letter and saw the sign of a cheque within (the paper being thin. I could also see the figure 5 shining through) , I gave one "hooray" that could have been heard at the top of Hay-street, blessed you with a most heartfelt sigh of gratitude, and drew out FIVE SHILLINGS! ! Now, how could you? But I was not as disappointed as I might have been if the donor had been a stranger, for I was wondering what had become of you and your good intentions, for don't you remember promising to be a regular correspondent. and I am sure it is over a year since I last heard? You have made due reparation now with the little pink cheque and the splendid assortment of "foreigners." and thank you very much. I know your fine Catholic spirit appreciates all that the Scheme means to the Bushies. and evidently the ones around Albany district are worthy of having their strong faith encouraged and nurtured. AUNT BESSY. Norseman. Dear Aunt Bessy,—Like yourself, I have been very interested in the cricket. but I have not forgotten the Bushies.

Please send another card.— Yours sincerely, (Miss) D. HARDY. Dear Miss Hardy,—You must have a way with You where the cards are concerned. and I notice they are not your only charity, which makes me doubly appreciative of your generous service to the Bushies. They tell me one can have one's face "lifted" now, so if the worst comes to the worst, I win sail away to the surgeon's or wonderful quack who can do this, as I am sure my whole face will fall if I don't r aise my £147 9s 9d.

Boulder C.Y.M.S. Dramatic Club Once more this band of entertainers are hard at work preparing another production, which should eclipse all pevious shows. A three-act presentation, gems from "On Our Selection," in which most of Steele Rudd's characters will be portrayed to the life, in an entirely original arrangement to suit the club's stage facilities, will have the audience convulsed with laughter from start to finish. Critics who have read the manuscript and seen the first rehearsal, declare the piece to be funnier than Steele Rudd's best. Some new artists, in addition to the club's veterans, have proved conclusively that the B.C.Y.M.S. is a happy hunting ground for anyone in search of talent and artistry. Frank Rodgers, as "Dad." is splendid. Jack Pauley, is "Dave"—and no mistake. Frank Hickey, "Joe" (the boy who stutters), is a scream.

The desire of pleasure is another endless chain. The more pleasores we have the awn.. easily we are bored Being . bored we want still more and more pleasure. An over-sensitive mind can neither receive nor endure anything without telling of it, and it is always a little astonished at the lowly places which humility and simplicity choose. If we were each more concerned about reaching to God's standard for us. or even to our own standard for ourselves, we should have less time to study how far short other people fall. It is perfectly certain that God will not fail us, provided He find in us humility which makes us capable of receiving His gifts, a longing to possess them, and promptitude in diligently co-operating with the aids given by His grace. When we carelessly make friends with wicked persons, we become involved in their sins; and our life is in discordance with Our Divine Lord Who is perfect righteousness. in proportion as it harmonises with the friendship of the bad.—St. Gregory. Anything that is worth beginning is worth finishing. But laziness often causes us to put off, or to cease our ' efforts. We might learn a good lesson in perseverance from the spider. If she has her thread brolczn twenty times, she will mend it again and continue her work. We have need of poetry in the midst of this cold, prosaic world, and at the same time, of a philosophy to give reality to our ideal conceptions— of a union of doctrines which shall be the base and the rule of our studies and our actions. This double blessing we find in our Catholic faith.— Frederic Ozanam. BE HAPPY AT HOME. What is it that secures happiness in a home? Before everything, religion: let all love well our good God. let all say their prayers morning and night. let all put their trust in Divine Providence. In the next place, union: let the members of the household be affectionate towards one an' other, forming only one heart and one soul, not saying or doing anything that can pain any one of them. Then again, the spirit of sacrifice: we must be ready to do without something in order to make another member of the family enjoy it, we must give up our own personal tastes to conform to the tastes of others. Finally, pliancy of character: not to be hard to deal with, touchy, sour, proud: not to be obstinately rooted in one's ideas, not to grow impatient about mere nothings, but to have a large mind and a generous heart. A family whose members possess these qualities is a paradise on earth. THE BLESSED SACRAMENT. The Blessed Sacrament is for us in this world, what the Vision of God will be in the next—the source of all our life. From it streams forth the river of life to save the world from the death of sin. We live. by gazing on Him, by keeping ever in touch with Him. And the closer our union the mere incessant our recourse to Him, the tenser shall he our supernatural life.
THE CHURCH GOES ON. "Ile would die; in Rome the Holy Grlice would continue to work, the Sacred Rota would go on with its labours, the Congregation of Rites, the Eastern Rites of the Propaganda Fide. He had to die, but in the glass, concrete and steel churches of the Rhineland the Litany of Loreto would still be recited, and the glorious Rosary The Fathers of the Church would still be translated into The lepers would still be Chinese. cared for in M. olakai and Makogai. The great cities of France would still continue to be Catholicised. He had to die, but he knew that the wonderful fight of the Church Militant would continue. The heretics of all grades, of all tendencies, of all lands, would rot intellectually, other Popes would follow Pius XI., a Leo XIV., a Benedict XVI., a Pius XII., a Clement XVI., and so on. until the end of days."—"The Gates of Hell" (Kuhnelt-Leddihn.) -A HEAVENLY GIFT. Nature does everything for gain, and for her own convenience, can do nothing unless she is paid for it, but hopes to get either an equivalent or an advantage in exchange for every kindness, or else praise for favour, and she desires that her deeds, gifts, and words should be highly estimated. But Grace seeks nothing temporal, nor asks for any other prize than God alone for her reward, nor does she desire temporal things beyond what is necessary, except that it be that she might employ them for the obtaining of things eternal.

Maoris .at Home—Sights For Visitors P. and 0. Cruise Plans.

While the particular attraction will Vary with the overland tour selected— there will be almost a bewildering variety at low excursion rates—the charm of Maori life and hospitality will be everywhere encountered. Take, for instance, the native welcome at Whakarewarewa village. 'Here the Australian visitors will he introduced to life amid hot springs and boiling mud, fearsome to strangers, but trusted allies to those who use the bubbling pools as gigantic cooking pots. Such manifestations of thermal activity as famous Rotorus, with its majestic geysers and silica terraces, hot springs and fumaroles, have been described by an American spectator as "Hell peeping through!" But the great majority of Strathaird passengers will carry away in memory a composite of rare loveliness. Not the least pleasant feature will be the cointcsv and personal interest shown by

A civilisation which divorces itself from • religion is dying, dead, and damned. Instead of being upset by unfriendly criticism, try to derive useful tip, and guidance from it. Half the world doesn't know how the other half lives—but it has its suspicions, not always kind. There are many people who regard Sunday as a day of rest--in the sense of sleep, either in their beds or nodding in armchairs. Business success, which depends upon split seconds and competitive fractional advantages of an eighth of a penny, is not worth the anxiety w hich such keen rivalry involves. The employer who keeps his wages bill below what he can reasonably afford to pay for services rendered, is acting in a manner contrary to his hest interests. There can be no doubt that the armament industry, with its enormous financial interest in the fomenting of war, is one of the greatest menaces to the peace of the world. • In spite of the portrayal of the present age by novelists and playwrights ;-o one of neurotic decadence, we will find all around us examples of courage, unselfishness, and good comradeship—examples. too. of heroic sanctity. Happiness is not something so' big as to be almost beyond our reach without terrific exertions. Look for it in the daily routine of life and work, and it will come to you, in small doses perhaps, but easily and e ffortlessly.

Catholic News from Everywhere Mgr. Duchemin, Rector of the Collegio Beda, was received in special audience recently, when he presented to the Holy Father twelve priests who have finished their studies at the college and who will be going out to take up their work in England. The Holy Father said he was very pleased to receive them when they were at the beginning of their apostolic work and he urged them to keep alive always the spirit of their priesthood and bring the blessings and fruits of the Redemption to many souls. Piety and learning were the two qualities needed for tne priesthood, and they had had the privilege of being in Rome and, therefore, they should carry the lessons they had learned in the Eternal City to those to whom they were to minister. All the bells of Becancon rang out a welcome to Cardinal Hlond, Primate of Poland, when he arrived in the course of his tour of France. He was met at the station by Cardinal Binet, A rchbishop of Besancon, and all the French and Polish officials. He visited Ronchamp, in France-Comte, an important centre of emigration for his compatriots. At Lyons, the Cardinal received an enthusiastic welcome, led by Cardinal Maurin, Archbishop of Lyons. Cardinal Mond made a pit grimage to Ars at the head of 100 Poles, and in Lyons visited the establishments of the Salesian Congregation, to which he belongs. One of the notable events in the three-days' celebration of the Golden Jubilee of the Archbishop of Boston (Cardinal O'Connell), was the reading of a long letter of the Holy Father, praising His Eminence for his "great zeal and extraordinary energy for the growth of the Church." The most notable event was on the athletic field of Boston College, where the Cardinal celebrated High Mass in the presence of a congregation of 50,000 children from all parts of his Archdiocese. His Eminence pontificated at .High Mass also in Fenwav Park, in the presence of another great congregation, and in the Cathedral of the Holy Name. In an address at the Cathedral, the 75. year-old Cardinal said: "Whatever of good I have achieved during my priestly life is due to the inspiration of The defects alone are mine. God.
Thus far God's mighty Hand has led me on. From day to day, from year to year, in such brief space as His gracious Providence may give me, my only wish, my only hope and prayer is that I may still learn to serve and love Him more and more until the weary hands drop the work assigned to them and the weary eyes are closed in peace. May I then behold the great and good Master Whom I have striven to serve, and accept from Him the glory of eternal life. For that end I now ask your prayers". Bishop Pellinger. Auxiliary to the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, has de. dicated the new chapel built by the German Vincentians at the spot on the shore of the Lake of Genesareth, where, according to tradition, Our Lord multiplied the loaves and fishes. The chapel is near the Vincentians' hospice for pilgrims at Tahgah. Two years ago fine mosaics of an ancient sanctuary depicting the miracle of the loaves and fishes were found on this spot. A church which has just been comtileted on the outskirts of Warsosw, dedicated to Our Lady of Loreto, Patroness of Aviators, has been consecrated by Cardinal Kakowski. The church, which stands near a splend;-.1 new aerodrome, was built in memory of the late M. Ziverko and M. \nig urn, two distinguished pilots who won the International Challenge in 1932. . Clara Mayr, the Magdalen of thia year's Oberammergau Passion Play, and Anton Lang, junior, are to be married. Mr. Lang, son of the former Cl.ristus of the Play, is at present on the staff of an American University. The new Church of SS Peter and Paul, Clonmel, Ireland, was solemnly c onsecrated by the Most Rev. Dr. Kinane, Bishop of Waterford, last month. A rchbishop Downey. of Liverpool, England, preached the occasional sermon. His Grace was presented with an address and the freedom of the borough by the Clonmel Corporation. Lt.-Col.
