Father Martindale's Impressions of Us

Our Habits, Our Morals and Our Beaches Father C. C. Martindale, S.J. whose writings are widely known, and who is a commentator with a keen judgment of men and things, in an interview given to a -West Australian- pressman at the Archbishop's Palace (luring last week after a swim at Scarborough, said many things that, coming from a much- travelled person of his keen intellect and understanding, form interesting reading matter.

Bcoks and Pornography. One point, however. Six years ago went into an ordinary stationer's shop to buy I forget what. Certainly I was astounded by the books exhibited in one section of the cases. You would have to hunt in London before you found such literature. I asked my companion, a returned soldier, if that was normal. But it appeared that he never read books of any kind, and regarded the entire oc cupation with horror and had to forgive me for writing them—so I got no further information off hip; but we retired for a glass of beer. it being very hot. It remains that porno graphy, especially if accesssible to the y oung, is bad, and it has recently been fiercely objected to by the Peruvian Board of Education. I

Father M;rtindale has been impressed by ?erth's beauty from the riverfront, bit the gasometer offends his eye. ": shall be glad to lose no opportunity here or in England of saying that it is a crime Perth has mminitted :gainst itself," he exclaimed. "The road from Fremantle to Perth, whic) has been broadened since I . was last lere and adorned with the beautiful golden university buildings, ends with what would be radiantly beasitiful e:cept for the gasometer, whi'sh rivets the eye on its hideousness. I thank God daily on waking on my t errace ahsve (pointing to his room at the Palace) that my hack is turned to eyelything except the river." " Visitors are always asked what t hey Thititc of a country's 'morals; wIlich I 'should think arc the last t hing he /should be asked about," he said. rzsVen visible public laxity ar gue terekness on the part of author bV, says nothing about the beha\a'rui; Qf the majority. Thus I dare sa ," Port Said is quite a respectable pls re in spite of the way you are Pfitered there.

(One reason ag. ai,nst the cinema is that it standarc li§es .the imagination and is bringThe whole world up on the same )d-----unrourishing fond, but T couldn't • exactly poisonous.)

Beaches and Beach Dress. "Some people are apt to utter cries against some of Your beaches at cer tain hours of the day. I haven't s wum off many of them, and when I did the topic didn't occur to me; so I noticed ( illy a number of healthy people whom I envied, and wished we had sun and water like that in England. I couldn't condemn beaches as such any more than motor cars as such. Both can he misused. The latter are our common necessity. The former your national good luck. Father Martindale spoke of a reac tion against moral laxity and the need for self -control. "It is, T think- certain that Europe (except where a revolution may be _going on, and largely because of it, as in Spain , there is marked reaction away from lewdness or laxity,- he said. "There are those who say the same for Australia. Naturally, I can't judge. One father of a large family told me he actually noted the difference between his older and Younger son. That would be good. For if Vouth lets itself vo slack and sensual, there is not much chance of its pulling up, and the race will be slack, and an easy victim. To sin is one thing: to have a sinful mind is another. The centre of grav ity of such things should be the body, not the mind. A man, in process of constructing his character, may be weak —self-control is an art, and most arts are slowly learned. But if there are no principles in the mind, nor courage in the will, in favour of self control, there will be no attempt at self - discipline, and that is an early end of self -respect, and indeed of respect for anyone else. That means an envineered de-valuation of humanity; a cheapening of the race, body and rnincl ; and, as T said. no future save defeat.

T. A. 4AMES, Stock and Share Broker, West

"A book I recently read---'Australia's Backyards'—says that in the North there is an approach to native (or halt -caste) labour, such that white women need do no work. Result, their morals go west. I've never been there, and know no one to ask if that is true. But it is true in South Al rica, where, I confess, the high level of the ground and rarified air may add to the difficulty, though I doubt it. For if North Australia is largely hot and damp for half the Year, that is just as bad. It remains that idleness due to your work being done for next to no wages by a population you look down on, is quite certain to rot away self respect and all the rest of it. The author anyway, had for long lived there, and was Australian, and was far from setting up to be a saint himself. I hold, then, that to disregard the tendency towards real tough per sonal self -control in sexual matters, is to be out of the current towards precisely that so noticeable in the younger generations of several countries, England included. The sight of a :quandered generation has decided stir%.-ivors to go on surviving, and to take Austere means towards donig so." A University Mission. An echo of the

criticism

directed

1w some parliamentarians against the

grant for education in this State and the financing of the free university, has apparently been heard by Father Mar tindale. -It is alleged," he exclaimed, -that :ti,):1,;:s spent on university or even other education in Western Australia is deprecated. Perhaps it is thought that the enormous sum left to make .possible the beginning of ysur university buildings is suffiThough, in proportion as uni cient. versity education is 'free,' it is difficult to see how anything ever coulel suffice. For no one wants a university to be, as too often in Latin coon' tries, a mere machine for getting degrees and not even a place where dif ferent categories of students can get a technical and departmental instruc tion. A university should fit a man in all ways for being a citizen of the world. It cannot do that if he so much as remains within its walls—it should have many travel- scholarships and should he 'universal' enough to prepare their winners to profit by them. I do not know that Rhodes scholars always do profit by their stay in Oxford; in fact, T know they don't in many cases. Either they are too definitely of their own nationality to like or make use of Oxford; or the" are fascinated by it, wish to remain abroad, or cease to fit in when they -return home.

;

"But an essential element in a suc cessful university is the proper pay ment of those who teach in it. And I am sure that much of that teaching should be tutorial. Thus in Oxford we had a weekly essay, which involved a week's hard research; You read it to your toter either alone or with not more than one other piesent. This might take 20 minutes; 40 were left for extremely personal discussion. Th.

I sa:. 'the last resort.' for, if the State pays, it will soon enough claim to c.)ritro: ciniversitY teaching, which is the quick death of intellectual independence. In South Africa the State once tried ts appoint university profesors. The universities at once saw that this meant political appointments; the State wan ted a 'one way mental traf fic' such as should suit its convenience. The universities revolted, and defeat'--ed this plan, even at the cost of money. That was about 1930, things may have changed since then:" A keen observer, Father Martindale had a Nvord to say Australian, of abroad and at home. "No one should generalise about a whole nation at a time." he said, "therefore I say merely that one sort of Australian has a nan-,e for boasting, rather as one sort of Englishman has the name of being supercilious, or stiff. If boasting is a half -unconscious way of defending what you love dearly, like your home. \yell, it is understandable and no one minds after a bit. But if it is due to complacency, and the complacency is due to lack of comparisons or adequate standards of judgment. then it would be tedious to listen to and very ii harm fv1 to the compla(lil t her ile c ould never improve, which we all r eed to do. God knows. The West Australian University buildings would have been impossible a generation ago, and imply travel cinilinrisnn, judgment and good selection; in short, they are very beautiful.

THE RECORD.

"Building Their Future on Granite" Cardinal Pacelli writes: "While the spiritual mother of the South American continent, Catholic Spain, was undergoing a most sorrow ful crisis, in which the devastating Jury of a factious minority laid its sacrilegious hand on holy places and persons, the capital of Argentina of fered the Eucharistic King, with the participation of the whole Catholic world, an act of homage and at the same time of reparation which far surpassed the expectation of the most fervid imagination. "The hAdoremus' of millions ot f aithful, which the waves of the ether transmitted to the whole terrestrial globe, resounded more powerfully than the 'Crucifige' of those who. instigated by their satanic spirit: tried to impose the yoke of Antichrist on a great and a noble people on whose path has always Acme the Cross of the Son of God. "This people (of Spain) attained its own heights of greatness under the protection of the Cross, and its future fortune can be conceived only in the blessed, saving Sign of the Redemption. . . . "The days of Buenos Aires showed how Argentina and the great nations of South America could justify the gladdest hopes of our heart. "Never had I seen an entire nation people—bowed and —government down and kneeling so devoutly before sed Him Who said: "Rex sum ego . regnurn meum non est de hoc mundo. . . . "Never had I seen the military for-, ces of a nation render so unanimous a tribute of love and honour to the King of all armies, and approach in such serried ranks and with such exemplary recollection to the Table of Christ the King in the Eucharist. . . . "Never had I heard the chief of a state of such present greatness and future promise pronounce in such solemn words the consecration of his people to the King of Kings. "The Eucharistic week of Buenos Aires was the reaping of a most bountiful harvest, divinely raised from a seed sown with infinite diligence. . . "But Buenos Aire's was not only a Eucharistic marvellous triumph of thought: it was also a brilliant demonstration of the affection of South American Catholics towards the Papacy. . . . "The sovereign honour paid to the

through his conference with the managers. He thinks it should not be difficult, when booking pictures and stage productions> to get a guarantee that nothing offensive will be spoken or acted "The remedy is empty houses," he concluded, "and the public must see to it." * • * News has been received from Rome of the appointment of the Rev. James Moynagh, C.C., Drumlish, Co. Longford, to be Prefect Apostolic of the newly erected Prefecture of Calabar, A frica. Father Movnagh is a native of the parish of Mullahoran, and was ordained at Maynooth, in 1930. After ordination he accepted a temporary mission in Nigeria with the Fathers of the Society of St. Ptitrick. for Foreign Missions, founded about six years ago by Very Rev.- P. J. Whitney. Re called home in the early part of last year, he was appointed curate of Drumlish, and now he has been named Prefect Apostolic of Calabar—the first Prefecture confided to the Society of St. Patrick for Foreign Missions. The Irish "Free" State Court recently awarded Austin Clarke, Irish poet and dramatist, 5,000 dollars damages against the Cassell Company, English publishers of London, for an alleged libel appearing in the third volume of Arnold Bennett's "Journal.The entry, dated 1933. imputed a statement to Clarke that "Irish girls were as dirty as the holy water in which they dipped their fingers.- The action was not defended by the Cassels, and it is doubtful whether the award will be ef fective outside the "Free" State. New action may be needed in London to implement the award, because of the limited jurisdiction of the "Free" State Court. ENGLAND. Decline of public interest in many of the now Anglican, formerly Catholic, Cathedrals in England was recently- demonstrated by the announcement that the Cathedral Commissioners tom Great Britain have made a grant of £18,000 a year for 10 years to seven cathedrals to ease their financial strain. All the cathedrals affected are pre Reformation, They are Carlisle Chichester, Lichfield, Ripon, Peterbor ough, Salisbury and Wells. The rea son given officially for the cathedrals plight is that they have been dependent largely upon tithes due to them upon the lands they own and which have been withheld in many places because of the depression of agricul ture. •

In honour of the Catholic Truth Society's Jubilee in England, solemn Pontifical High Mass was celebrated by Bishop Dobson in the Pro-Cathedral, Liverpool. In the evening a mass meeting, presided over by the Bishop, was- addressed. by Rev. 'Owen Dudley, who analysed the significence of the types of pamphlets now in demand. There was. he said, less demand for pamphlets of a controversial nature, but an increasing demand for the simple positive teachings of the Church. This was a healthy sign that much prejudice was now dead. Another pleasing feature of the sales was the demand for works dealing with the social and moral teachings of the Church. These were the answer to the pagan morality of to- day. Father Dudley regretted that the demand for pamphlets on religion and science was so comparatively small to-day. "We are faced with the modern mind and false science, which must he answered. and these pamphlets supply the answer in simple fashion," he deelared. Father Dudley drew a vision of the future, in which he saw huge em poriums stocked with Catholic and good secular literature, and in doing so he instanced the shops in Dublin a s a splendid example. Finally. he pointed out that the fight for England's soul was not one againsi Protestantism. hot against a paganism covered with -I thin veneer of respect ability AUSTRIA.

We prefer to fight and give up our lives rather than allow ourselves to be subjugated, or to capitulate to a barbarism not worthy of ourselves, to a system which we refuse to accept." President Miklas, Cardinal Innitzers and many members of the Government attended the celebration.

A resolution calling upon all ministers to survey the situation which finds the half the 34.000.000 children of country under public instruction without religious influences of any kind, and urging pastors to seek to extend church influence to them, was adopted at the national convention, Savannah, of the United Lutheran Church in Ralph Schatz. of AllenAmerica. town, Pa., pleaded for action on the matter, declaring the neglect of these children strikes at social and economic "It is from such as these stability. who are without religious influences, that agitators.

Thoughts For the New Year

. Some contend that anticipation is better than restrospect ion. Some, that histoy is more e;tal than news of the day. Yet others, t hat there is little of worth outside the "living present." Like most general statements, these are at best half-truths . Moreover, when isolated they frequently lead to pitiab extrem le es. Living exclusively in the future may develop the unrea soning optimist who eternally awaits the Millenium, of whom Mr. H. G. Wells has become the modern prophet. On the other side is the man who dares hope for nothing higher or holier than his own achieved. Yet again, there are men over-engrossed generation has in the immediate present, with no proper respect either for histo ry or for hope of the future. Much complacency and mediocrity may perhaps be traceable to this. Christianity is rightly said to be the happy mean betwe ganism and Modernism. Taking into consideration the en Pafact that virtue "stands in the middle path,' Catholics, therefore, about to set out on the great adventure of a new year, will do well to have in mind the ideal of a better year, backed by the experience of the past, but lived in the practical light of the present. Retrospect ion there will be, and humility in retrospection. For only on the experience of past failure and omission can one build a rational resolve for the future. All hope of advancement along the Catho lic way is rooted in the maxim of the philosophers: "Self know ledge and self control." One has not far to seek for a worthy resolution for the ensuing year. This is the age of Catholic Action, when the Catholic laity can no longer be content with giving the Church merely their coin and their moral support. They have a definite call—a vocation— to co-operate with the Hierarchy in the work of Christ's Church among men. Our distinguished visitor, Father Martindale, S.J., was at pains to stress this: "It is not enough to be Christians. We must also be Christianisers." Many opportunities exist for Catholics to participate actively in the work of the Church. by becoming members of one or other of the many Catholic societies in our midst. There is work awaiting every Catholic if he be but willing to co-operate. * But Catholic ideals must be founded on Catholic practice.. if they are to carry weight. Catholic Action begins primarily with the individual's ownself. Personal spirituality must naturally precede any attempt at social sanctification, and is reached only through the frequent and worthy reception of the Sacraments. Such self knowledge and self discipline is necessary in order to exercise a leavening influence for good on the community. It is only then that truly Catholic Action begins. Just as the stability of the State is founded on the family unit, so also does the stability of the family depend on the individual. The individual being sound. all is well, and the Holy Father's desire for Catholic Action Nvill be well on the road to achievement. It is some such attitude as this which the Church would like its subjects to bear in mind when forming resolutions for the New Year.

Further to the Creination Act which was passed in 1929. the Cremation Act Amendment Bill was debated in the Legislative Assembly on the 20th. ult. The Church has alway s refuse sanction the practice of cremation, and will continue to do so.d to In addition to being a pagan practice. it has been recently•resurrec ted by atheists and _materialists with a view to destroying the Chris tian doctrine of immortality. As a matter of fact, cremation doesnot affect the question of resurrection. Cremation mean more rapid separation of the elements of the liody, and s but a even if the :;shes were scattered to the winds, God could easily reassemble them. There is no such thing as the absolute destruction of matter which is merely transformed and continues to exist no matter how many changes it undergoes. God has created matte r. so can easily turn it back again into the bodies which it has previously formed, so that no matter how inert treat those bodies, or where they put them, they will some day rise again. * • Cremation is not opposed to the natural law of morality, not: has God directly given a positive law in the matter. However, a very grave disciplinary law of the Church requir es that earth 1 e retained. the law may be suspended in time of war or ' • + -enerally the Church insists on its observance . The -1- the authority of God, and it is God Who forHis Church. The whole liturgy of the . stian burial is adapted to earth-burial, and -1 he forfeits the privileges of such Catholic it benefit to the soul which inhabited the l orly. The 1). :rial place for a Christian is in consecrated f_Trntind. It may be added that cremation destro ys all signs of violence or of poison. and thus prevents exhumation and medical exnenination for the detection of crime, and on this count also it choiild be opposed. Therefore. although the Assembly may legalise this method Of burial, it will never be lawful in Church. which forbids its children to have anyth the eves of the ing to do with it. If others choose to avail of it, that, of course, is their own affair. f t is pleasing to note the success with which Catholics . are m eeting in their social activities. The Catholic tennis carnival, which commenced at Rushcutter Bay, Sydney. on Decem ber 27, and concluded on New Year's Eve, left New South Wales as the winner of the Archbishop Kelly Shield, without the loss of a match. Queensland was runner-up, and Victoria took third place. Our own team, which had previously held the title, was foirth on the

The comparative success of W.A. is enhance win by the fact that its team- was not up to full strength: * -• * In a wider field, where Catholics • are in open competiti U, have been well to the fore. In the recently concluded Sta • they championships, Miss Jean Glover won the women's singles c inpionship, and partnered by Miss Wansborough, the girls' doul) pionship also. The congratulations of the. Catholic co charntriunity, and especially of her club, the Hill Street Tennis Club, a e xtended to her. An address by Professor Kick, published during the eek, . endorses the authoritative Anglican views on birth-preve n on, contained in the resolutions of the Lambeth Conference, of 1 Catholic Church alone is uncompromising on this gra 0. The moral issue. She declares it opposed to the natural dictates 0 mora ity, Just as the appetite for food is an instinct ordained to t preiervation of the individual life, so the sex appetite is ordai d to the preservation of the life of the race. The pleasure attac d to the indulgence of sensual passion is but secondary, wherea the production of children is the primary purpose. The birth ontrcller satisfies passion for the sake of passion, thus violat ing order established by God. The use of marital privileges le m)ral toge7her with the deliberate frustration of the justifying purpo se, s but reciprocal vice. It is destructive of marriage, for it ofte leads to the divorce court, when those who have based their m sensuality have tired of each other. Finally, the mor riage on evil birth-prevention is condemned in the first place not by clesia of tical law, but by Divine law. Hence no power on eart can plispense from it, the resolutions of the Lambeth Confere c, or the public utterances of Principal Kiek. notwithstanding.

The greatest sympathy of his wide circle of friends in this country will go out to the venerable Archbishop Redwood, who lies critically ill in the Lewisham Hospital at Wellington, New Zealand, following the amputation of his right leg above the knee owing to indications of gangrene. Archbishop Redwood is in his 96th. year. He wintered in Queensland, where he has re latives, and returned to his Archdiocese not long ago. He was to attend the Eucharistic Congress in Melbourne, buta sudden illness compelled him to go into hospital. He is a man of wonderful vitality and, notwithstanding his great age, his faculties are unimpaired.

It was, he said, up to the people themselves to decide whether the National Union would be a success or a failure. He was willing and ready to do his part and all that he asked was the co- operation of the people.

" What The World Can Hope For

A University Lecture by Father C. C. Martindale, S.J. Rev. December 28, On Friday, lectured in the S.J., Martindale, Father at . the University, Winthrop Hall the Newman sounder the auspices of World Can Hope ciety, on "What the Coadjutor ArchFor." His Grace the bishop presided, while those on the Dr. McMahon, platform included Rev. representatives of and Goody, Dr. ev. R Dr. McMahon the Newman Society. thanks to the of vote proposed a aptly celebrated lecturer, and also to the University Senate for their gmerosity in placing Winthrop Hall at their disposal. Father Martindale said: The title of this lecture implies that we are talking of something on a large scale—the "world," the human race, not just you and I, though you and I It also implies that the included. world has not got all it can have, or For you can even ought to have. want to have all sorts of things you haven't got, but that you oughtn't to get, and so, you oughtn't to hope for them. I mean, therefore, that there are a great number of people who haven't got what they ought to have, and the question is whether, short of being fatuous and even imbecile, they can hope to get them. By -hope," I mean a firm, but sensible, expectation We can. therefore, of getting them. cut out the category of the despondent, for if you despond, you do not try, and you will get nothing from the world and the world vill get nothing We can also cut out the from you. category of the individualist, by which I mean the man who at least tries to gat all he can for himself: whatever he hopes for, the world at large can hope nothing from him, because he is perfectly selfish and doesn't worry about other peopleThe world, therefore, can hope something from people who are themselves hopeful. and on an unselfish basis, and who are ready to try to dal something towards the realisation of their hope. As an example of what I mean by -the difference between Hope and Wanting things, I quote what happens in South Africa. "Civilise the N! — How? —Create Wants, Needs.—That is, create market for US in S.A. If you say: the civilised man is the man with fewest needs and widest appreciation—the Native has gone DOWN if you make him want just any clothes r ather than none—clothes such as you supply to him. Dd negrophil: hold your tongue or be ostracised. The Native, then, is being caused to want many unnecessary things, and what he hopes for is denied to him. In this lecture, then. 1 mean by -hope" a reasonable but firm expectation that things can be better, be made better, than they are, on a general scale. That they are not as good on any scale as they might be or ought to be, no Australian is likely to In the world at large, there aredeny. millions who never have enough to eat: who have not got proper can find no work though houses; who they are ready to do it; dare not marry, though they want to; dare not have children, though they would like to: find themselves at war, they are sure they are don't know why: somehow being cheated by others stronger or cleverar and above all see neither how richer than they, hut how to correct this is happening nor it: are sick in body, t ormented in weakened in nerves, confused in mind, will- power consciously or unconsciously frightened of, angry with, full of hate for individuals, classes, nations or races other than their own, and turning in increased numbe . rs to violence, or again to suicide. 1 am not the human saying that that represents are many, race as a whole: but there it is true, too many, humans of whom one can and the question is, whether otherwise tertain hope about than fatuously enthe situation. and, if, so, hopes in what particular directions? If I indicate a few such direction, I am quite sketchily, conscious that I do so most partly because this is one brief lecture and, probably, because I have not enough expert knowledge on any ate itt point to enable me to elaborproperly even in a series of lectures. But, to premise clear the ground, I have to have to frankly that I think we shall s tate of give up trying to create a new society bv merely reshuffling the was materials With. which the old one built. The old one was. in prac tice, agnostic and even materialist, and

certainly financial, a word I prefer to -capitalist," for I have no objection to individuals owning capital, in fact, I think they ought to, and even if possible land. But I see no likelihood of improvement merely by means of tariffs, inflation, checks on production, 40hours' week, hunt for new markets, and regulation of imports v. exports, or very little—if only because all such things are, precisely, a reshuffling of old cards, and because none of them reach the mind, where alone happiness resides. And for what in the world do we hope, save for happiness. and what makes it possible.

imposed on masses of human creatures. All this is raw, though not .without charm, because it is also nait, ano due, as I said, to a non-knowledge of men in the concrete, even of men whom history has put at once far off enough and near enough for us to study them at ease; for, so to say, dead men stay put. Yet in England. and many other countries, no brand of Communistic propaganda is nastier, to my mind, than that let loose by University students, in 99 cases out of 100 discarded and very soon reprobated when they get outside and have to cope with realities, not isms. What I find unforgivable is the older man among them, sometimes an older student (who may have worked, suffered, and experienced a limited part of life and one- sidedly at that), and sometimes a professor (who has usually experienced nothing at all, and who often if not usually has no idea of the effect of his words, are haying on inflammable material, especially if he is clever, and can speak. which half of our Oxford professors cannot do, but only bleat).

deed, we hold that it is a system which cannot sufficiently change unless it changes right out of itself, being at present anti-human and anti-social, not to mention anti-Christian. But we have much to hope for from the application of a philosophy, i.e., the Catholic one, which is no mere philosophy, since it issues into and deals with the intellectual certainties and their concrete application. Neither agnosticism nor that completely barren version of agnosticism, at it really is—Modernism—has any future before it. Endless experiment, endless hypothesis, ever fluid formulas, cannot build up anything solid. And indeed I think that much may be hoped from History, as increasingly able to show how few are the ideas that humanity has hatched, and how far from new are modern notions, and how much, that is now being tried, has already been tested and discarded. I should like you to make the most of all Mr. C. Dawson's books. but especially his "Progress.- You will see that humanity moves far more in circles than progressively, as, from quite a different angle the anthropologisis. Schmidt and Schebesta, see it to do. Certainly, those who believe in Providence see it rather as a tilted spiral, but it is very difficult to take so enormous a view as that. Still. I hold that History itself reveals that the upward movement takes place under the impetus of two main certainties, one, the existence of God. absolute and paramount, active and hole: and, the spiritual nature of man, or. more accurately, his twice-over twofold nature—spiritual and bodily (he is bodysoul), and individual and social. Hence his strict responsibility alike to God and to his fellow -man.

A t the opposite extreme. I get very weary of people who put their faith in Isms. By this I mean; those who imagine a philosophy as such is going to change the world. To my mind there is hardly anything being said worth saying about either Capitalism or Communism—each is an abstract system, and in either case all depends upon the first: the Capitalist or the Communist. If, of course, Communism he defined (it need not be, but usually is as the philosophy and method now But speaking to you as Catholic Uniin vogue in Russia, I hold that even versity students, I should, even at the as a system it is bad as such, for it outset, say that you provide the world means at present State Absolutism with any amount of hope, if you have ( that is the absolutism of oligarchs. a a firmer philosophy and a more comfew men, possessed of all the power, plete one than anybody; you have, in enforcing itself upon the many by the Church, at once a stimulus and a means, precisely, of that power.

It seems to me that men or the positive ciences have, without observing it, themselves and from their end constructed the bridge of which students of abstract psychology had, as I said, long ago and quite reliably constructed the other, so that the two can meet and fearlessly co-operate. The most prudent of the psycho- therapists I have met have either frankly believed in this spiritual coefficient in man, or assured me that perforce they had to act as if it existed, and use it at least as an assumption rendered necessary by the bankruptcy, after a certain point, of their merely physical We reach in experimental method. this way the reinstatement of the validity of the intelligence and of ideas. and. of the reedom, i.e., free-ability of the will. This has practical and indeed civically important consequences of a far reaching sort. I can but indicate some There is, in the world, an of them. enormous mass of misery due to mental defect. I fear that I think the proposal to deal with it by means of s terilisation is terribly unscientific (if only because there has been nothing like time adequately to observe its ef fects: but also, because the matter has not been thought out even in principle—for example, people seem by now agreed that it would be useless to sterilise the defective; it is the carexistence—who rier—assuming his should be sterilised, and he is invis ible, and anyhow is non -defective. Hence thus to treat him would involve sterilising a huge number of apparently quite healthy and useful citizens, fathers and mothers of defectives. Many other allied considerations could be adduced. But also. save in a very few cases (practically all, if not all, Catholic), the approach to the defective through the spiritual end primarily (neglecting no other line of experiment, such as food) has hardly been attempted. Merely to "suggest ideas- as to the validity of which you are agnostic, is no good. I think Catholic work in this department is furtherest advanced in Belgium: we sympathise with Archbishop Clune because the depression interfered gravely with his school for sub-normals at Castledare. It would take too long for me to OF dicate the modifications in general educators were this spiritual coefficient to be reinstated, as it can and should be. I remember almost the day on which—after a long school education, unconsciously quite agnostic and unable to indicate values--I woke up to the idea of things being true or false, good or bad. Oddly. this was due to Plato and Aristotle, and not at all to the masters. cergymen and others. who were by way of bringing me up. A logical result of this is, if one thinks sufficiently far forward, the total disapprobation of a secularist system of education such as was imposed for sectarian reasons here and in New Zealand. Not even the least defective schoolboy can be brought up either just on sentiment—playing the game, etc.—or on agnosticism. The former method is pretty well bound to break down the moment he enters business for example: and the latter, when he is confronted by a moral issue of the least importance. I might, however, add that when a State is seriously anxious for its future, even from the physical and not yet the moral point of view, it will quite rightly keep a severe check on what can injure the development of conscience and selfcontrol in the young. as I consider pornography to do, and indeed the whole practice of contraception. But vou will not expect me to enter into details about that. Finally, we can hope much from the real awakening among Catholics of a social conscience. They may have been too long occupied with religion as a purely private matter, i.e., concerned with the salvation of their own souls, in reality playing false thus to two elements in their own philosophy. First, the fact that they are not only souls. and that no one else is, and that it is man whom Christ proposed to save, and not only souls; and second, that they exist by nature in society and are part of it, so that when there is, as there is, a great deal of injustice in the world, i.e., a social sin, they participate in another's sin," as the catechism puts it, if they do nothing to right the wrong. To make as much money as You can, as quick as you can, and then to "live easy" and iost enjoy it, is altogether alien to the Ca, tholic ideal. and, since it would be very diffif-ult to do that, save at some else's exPense, it turns. into thieving, and ought to be confessed. I know that much of our evil state is inherited: but that is no excuse for inaction:

(By Father Martindale, "Out in Australia, oh what did you see? Little bears climbing around on a tree? Kangaroos coming for afternoon tea? Did you see Babies exactly like me?" Out in Australia, my darling, it's true— There are dozens of babies exactly like you: All of them eating the very same food; All, I am certain, exactly as good! "Oh, but you must have seen differ ent things. Birds that could laugh at you—fishes with wings. I f you've got nothing surprising to say, What is the good of your going away?"

SS,

Living With the Church Read Our Calendar Weekly

Well, there were children I never did see— (Which was a great disappointment to me!) Little Bush Babies so sturdy and brown, Babes in the Bush that have never seen town! "Oh, but why do they live up in a bush? What if an elephant gave them a push? Who is it puts them to sleep in their nest? * What do they talk like? and how are they dressed " Ali. but Bush Babies aren't just what they sound; Nor are there elephants roaming around! Still, there are lizards as big as your arm; Yes, and a snake can do plenty of harm.

Teach themn their lessons out under the sun; Play with them after the lessons are done: Play with them, pray with them' sing them to sleep— Tuck them in safe for Our Lady to keep.

Some litle girls wear a calico smock; Some of them manage a regular frock! As for a tiny boy—often he wears His father's big breeches braced up to his ears!

"Oh, but I want to go out there with you! Surely there's something I'd man age to do! Couldn't I travel right over the sea, And visit the Babies more lonely than me?"

Still they are always more lonely than you; Their fathers and mothers have SO much to do! So who is it helps little Babies like them? Who but the Reverend Doctor MacM. !

When you grow older, perhaps von shall go And visit the Babies who've never seen snow— Not even at Christmas—and what will You say, When I tell 'coo I'm writing this on Christmas Day?

He and the little black nuns and the brown, Bring the Bush Babies right up to the town; Give them a beautiful dip in the

So if you will ask Him, the Baby Divine Will bring to Bush Babies your presents and mine; And Mary, the Bush-Mother,* Mother. and His, Will give to their Babies her Baby to kissi

human solidarity exists only not among all contemporaries, but backwards and forwards indefinitely. However, since our Faith teaches also the incalculable value of each man, it can never admit a system that involves the obliteration of the individual. Hence you ought, as Catholics. to know and make public the true theory of the State, which is an organically living multitude of units and itself a unit, within which each is responsible for the well-being of the whole, and the whole, for that of each. We can hope then much from the manifest desire recognisable everywhere for some form of State authority that shall be an authority and yet fully respect the individual. Men are learning the absolute need of authority, and are e verywhere experimenting with it. But further, individuals not only demand that they should have personal freedom under that authority, but are, most remarkably, wishing to enact that authority in the shape of discipline within themselves. In conclusion, then, I consider the m odern world to contain much material for a sober hope. always providing the material be worked upon by men of conviction and of self -sacrificial will. Doubt, and selfishness, we can say dogmatically, will get us nowhere. Nor will any edifice built whollo of those elements out of which our actual civilisation has been constructed. stand up for long. And great will be its fall.

Cardinal Bourne Dead

Eminence Cardinal Bouene His A rchbishop of Westminster, died short• Iv' before midnight on New Year's E ve, after an illness extending over He was aged 73 years. t wo years. Francis Bourne was born at Clapham on March 23. 1S61.• and was edu College. cated at St. Cuthbert's Ushaw, St. Edmund's, Ware: St. Sulpice. Paris, and at the University of LOnyain. In 1884 he was ordained a priest and served curacies successively ,et Blackheath, Mortlake 'and West Grimstead. At the age of 28 he he ' ': e founder and rector of Southwark Diocesan Seminars-. and in 1895 was e eo 'jilted Domestic Prelate by Leo Cardinal by XIII. Consecrated Vaughan as Coadjutor Bishop of Southwark. he succeeded Bishop Butt as Bishop of Southwark, 1897. On the death of Cardinal Vaughan. in 1903. Dr. Bourne was nominated as Archbishop of Westminster, and eight year, later was raised to the Cardinalate. In October. 1928, he, celebrated his sil ver jubilee as Archbishop. and in June, 1931. his golden jnhilee as a priest. In the fifty years since Cardinal Mamie' ordination, the great advance in the public influence of the Church

in England has been very largely due t o the Cardinal's personal qualities oi dignified and vigorous statesmanship,. As a Young and almost unknown Archbishop. he assumed possession ot a vast. newly -completed Cathedral. and in a few Years it had become the centre ot national ceremonies, attended on solemn occasions by the entire Cabinet, by members of the Royal Family, or i-v the whole diplomatic corps in London, with increasing frequency. The cerditial himself has long been reeog eised as era' of the principal figures in t he neblie life of London, and was coneulted on any question of national importance, as a matter of course- by t he public authorities. In the Great War, Cardinal Bourne soon acquired :. greatly increased prestige in national e ffairs. The laindon newspapers gave prominence to his splendid services in t he Allied caret'. h is mission to Palestine after the war had a profound influence upon diplomacy, and the ex traordinary marks of public honour !lc received on his return through the B alkans made it clear that the English Cardinal had become a great in ternational figure. His Eminence was appointed Papal Legate on three occasions--for the c elebration in Rouen of the 5th. centenary of the martyrdom If St. Joan of Arc, for the consecation of Buck fast Abbey Church. and for the laying of the foundation stone of Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral. In 1908, when the Government for bade the public procession of th? B lessed Sacrament at Westminster. during the Eucharistic Congress. the. voting Archbishop revealed his rapacity for firm decisions with a dignite and force which were previously unsuspected. In the long period since the Cardinal has won the reputation of c onstructive statesmanship. combined with rare gifts for patient and resolute r egotiation. -His simple courtesy and charm of manner have gained friendon all Fides, and his shrewd obser vation and quick grasp of essentials ir any critical situation, inspired ale-nes by an intense spirituality, made him an invaluable guide and leader of his people. English Catholicity is ereatle impoverished by his passing. R.I.P.
