That the Faith in England Might Live Tyburn Where the Martyrs Died (By FATHER JOSEPH HOGAN.)

I

There are people who know exactly the place called Marble Arch, Lut who are only vaguely conscious of the site called Tyburn Tree. It is a sign of the times (not a mark of the Faith) to hear that the great attrac tions in this area of the Metropolis are the many Cinemas. The next time you take a bus to Marble Arch, link the present to the past and think of Tyburn Tree. It would be rather refreshing to hear— "Two to Tyburn Tree, please." Con fusion of the conductor and constel nation of the passengers, for c:rtain, but this mental note of the new and the old would undoubtedly giA e a fillip to the Faithc of the Catholic fare! After all, Tyburn is something more to us than Marble Arch. The Cenotaph in Whitehall is net the only re membrance of the sacriCce made for Truth and of the fight waged for Freedom whioh demands and deserves the salute. The site of the Old Gallows. Of all the spots and spaces in this City or in the Country mention one which glows with more glorious memories than Tyburn. So the next time, and ever after. when you rush through the whirlpool of traffic which swirls around the monument, raise your hats, or bow your heads, for the ground which you t ravel is holy. T here are temples in the FEwt w hich worshippers and visitors Lre allowed to tread only in stockinged feet. Have you ever felt dispo..:ed to approach the tiny triangullr piece of wood block set in the road' ay at the entrance to Edgware Road on benaed knees? Have you ever beheld the scenes which arise before the pilgrim (not the excursi who views the site of the oldonists) Gallows and s ees the centuries roll away to the days when men were hanged and quarter ed on this golgotha of England to save the priceless inheritance which we possess to- day, and enjoy without the f ear of rack and gibbet? W henever you leave the bus you will have the modern danger - feat to perform and the latest death- trap to avoid. So make your way to the sign-post on the invites you to kerb which politely t raffic with the stem the torrent of least risk to life and limb. The Church rejoices over many a saint dragged to dle, but makes no Tyburn on a hur offer to commemorate many a sinner burn on a stretcher. carried from Ty .

The Blood Soaked Soil. Now step over one of the islands at the entrance to Edgware Road(there are two, but the one nearer the traffic entrance is the better of the Between that island and the two). kerbstone, looking slightly towards the opening of the entrance to the road, the small triangular indication of old Tyburn Tree will come into view. Some days visibility is bad' and the triangle is hard to find, when the road is wet and muddy after rain; nearly every vehicle running into the Edgware Road crosses the exact spot, the sacred centre of the scene. The modern world treats it with contempt, a hurricane of traffic is ever sweeping over this hallowed ground, and to-day it is only the Catholic pilgrim, know ing the history of the past, realising the significance of the drama which was enacted in that area, and imbibing the spirit of those glorious mar tyrs, who dares his life and stops to pause at this place. Cast your eyes around this arena of modern movement. The soil beneath is soaked with the blood of our glorious dead, one hundred and five victors of the Faith have given this place a tame and glory which grow brighter and wider as the years roll along. The

"Here you are, _sir," he said briskly, "wonderful value. Worth double the money. Latest pattems, fast colours, hole -proof, won't shrink, and it's a good yarn." The customer flooded. a little dazea.

"Once I was collared on leaving a music hall by a rather shabby man whose red nose and blotcher face bore eloquer . testimony to the source of his downfall," relates Sir Harry Lauder. "He hailed me jovially in unmistak able English accents, and prefaced a request for 'the loan of twopence' by claiming nationality with me. — You a Scotsman!' said I. 'No fear! If you had been a Scot you'd have asked for a tanner!'" • An inspector, while examining a class in school one day, asked: "Who drove the Israelites out of Egypt? You!" he .said• pointing to a small boy in the corner. "No. sir, 'twasn't me." replied the boy trembling. "I only came back from the country last week!" *Teacher: "Now, Billy, will five go into one?"

Above all, it was the intense and visible Catholicism of Munich which appealed to me. to whom the Catholic Church was still a terra incognita Surely Munich was. and is, pre-eminently a city of churches, old and new-especially new, for I think that the great gloomy brick cathedral of Our Lady (which I often visited, and got to love), is the only mediaeval church in the city. The Bishop of Munich—Freising in those days—was a monk (Gregory von Scherr. formerly Abbot of Metten), who did a great work for Catholic education in his vast diocese. I was presented to him by a Bavarian kinsman of mine, Baron von Poelnitz: he gave me a medal of St. Benedict, which I still treasure; but I do not suppose that the excellent prelate foresaw that St. Benedict would one day be my father and patron as well as his. I mpression of a Non-Catholic. Bishop von Scherr. the only Bishop of Munich whom I have ever had the honour of knowing. has been recalled tie me of late by some interesting conversations which I have been having with a friend who has -lust returned from the Bavarian capital. My friend is not a Catholic,. though his sympathies are entirely pro-Catholic, and, I may add. anti-Hitler: and have therefore been the more struck by the extraordinary impression which he has brought back with him from Munich of the super-eminent qualities. of the prelate who now occupies the ancient see founded more than twelve centuries ago. by Saint Cordinian on the hill monastery of Freising. The Cardinal of Munich To-Day. Few English Catholics have perhaps had an opportunity of realising what a magnificent work .for Catholicism and freedom, in the face of appalling difficulties, is being put up by this great Bishop and statesman, Cardinal Michael Faulhaber. Son of a Franconian miller, he won renown thirty years ago as professoi of Old Testament exegesis at Strasbourg University. where enormous audiences flocked to his lectures. At forty-two he became Bishop of Spires: and when the Great Wa:. broke out he was appointed by the Pope chaplaingeneral of the German army. Before the war ended he was nominated Archbishop of Munich-Freising, and in 1921 was raised to the Cardinalate in recognition of his work in negotiating the concordat between Bavaria and Rome. A Modern St. Chrysostom. From the very beginning of the Hitlerite domination in Germany there has been an impassible and immeasurable chasm between Hitler and the great Cardinal of Munich. He has shown himself from the first the implacable enemy of Nazi paganism. Utterly fearless of the possible consequences to himself, he continues to denounce in the most Outspoken terms the tyranny of Germany's modern dictator. Nearer seventy than sixty, he stands erect as a young man. Sueday after Sunday. in the churches of his cathedral city. pleading, now with the golden-tongued perliaeiveness of a Chrv_ sostom, now with the passionate invective of e-hich he is so consummate a master, against the barbarous turbelence of tile National Socialists. Cardinal Faulhaber is a religious nacifist it' the highest sence; and it is imnoesible to exaggerate the enormous influence, in strengtheniner the wavering and &couraging the faint-hearted, exercised in his diocese, and far heeoed its limits. by this great priest and preacher.

Under the above headings, the "West Australian," on Tuesday last, published the following appreciative commentary on Dr. Downey's impressions and experiences, gathered during his three months' visit to the Commonwealth: "There is in Dr. Downey," says our contemporary, a deep well of content and poise and charity. He sees clearly but he forms no harsh judgments; he impresses but he does not do it obviously. There is a winning subtlety about his personality founded not on an artificial complex, but on the simplicity which comes of deep knowledge and spiritual grace. In Perth on Monday, after spending nearly three months in Australia, he spoke of his impressions and experiences with an engaging sincerity. The visit had refreshed him. He had seen a new people with a new outlook. engaged on a tremendous task, making wonderful strides. He had met these people and spoken with them and to them. They had made him feel welcome and at home—partieularly did this apply to Queensland— and they had been ideal listeners, keen and alert and curious, even inquisitive. It was the foundation of progress. Too often in Europe audiences were dull, stolid, almost bovine Tn-breeding he believed to be the blame for this. It did one good to get away from Europe and to come to a new land like this and absorb fresh points of view. It was true that Australia was an island and that Australians had been accused of being insular- hut there was insularity in England and in Europe. No country could afford to throw stones. Although very often his musical voice trails away and there is a faroff look in his eyes, Dr. Downey is much of a realist. Not excessively He relates the present so, however. to the past and the future, hence his polse and his temperate judgments. The two great secular problems as he sees them at the moment are the ensuring of international, peace and the He does restoration of husbandry. not deplore the repeated failures of international conferences to achieve Each he believes does a little peace. good and adds a paving stone to the The more often pathway to peace. the pipes of peace are smoked the better, the more likely the taste and habit will be acquired. It took centuries to abolish slavery—to make the idea of slavery abhorrent to the civilised world. In time the thought of international war will become abhorrent. The ideal will grow. and, said His Grace significantly, it is ideals that It is a in the end rule the world. delight to find a country where dsarmament and peace can he discussed in such a detached and impersonal Europe suffers way as in ,Australia. from fears and prejudices and traditions; there adherence to peace is subject to many 'Frovises and qualifications. Industrialism Carried to Excess. He thinks it a pity that England took herself so seriously as "the workshop of the world." The Manchester school of political thought had much to answer for. A nation was not in good health if it allowed its broad acres to become bare acres. Rome decayed when husbandry was neglected and corn was imported from Egypt. The soil was a hard taskmaster, hut it put fibre and strength into a nation.

For years he had been keenly interested in getting people back on to the land. Lord Howard de Walden and he were joint presidents of a land association in the north of England. The object of the association was to encourage people to become farmers and to train them as agriculturists. From what he had seen of Australia, city life was florishing at the expense of the back country. There was room for millions of people on the land in Australia. He did not believe in sending out Great Britain's unemployed and trying to settle them on the land here, but he thought there was a big future for more and more farms of the type of the Fairbridge farm. He had seen vast areas of Australia that were unfit fer cultivation because of insufficient water, but this difficulty could be overcome by artesian wells and irrigation. The application of science to farming, and brains to marketing, would produce phenomenal results in time in Australia. He had seen evidence of the fertility of Australian soil that had simply amazed him. The variety of products and their prolific growth had been one of the wonders of his visit. He sincerely hoped that Australians would not become a nation of city people, but that they would love their lands and timbers and glorify their bush. He had been interested in Australian poets and novelists during his stay, and had found nothing more satisfying than George Essex Evans. He regarded the poem !'The Women of the West" as breathing the true spirit. These lines greatly appealed to him: "Well have we held our fathers' creed. No call has passed us by. We faced and fought the wilderness, we sent our sons to die. And we have hearts . to do and dare. and Yet, o'er all the rest, The hearts that made the Nation were the Women of the West." A New Civilisation Possible. Dr. Downey thinks it not impossible that decaylias set in in Europe. He mentioned a dozen past civilisations that had risen and fallen, and noted that when deterioration became - 1,solute, the pivot of civilisation found a new resting place. It would not be strange. he said, if in a few hundred years time Europe became effete and Australia became the pivot of the order. The virilty of its people and their freedom from the shackles of the past were all. in their favour. Quite possibly a change was coming. When Rome was heading fast to its decline an outstanding feature of its community life was the necessity for keeping the masses quiet with "bread and cireuses"; now the masses were being kept quiet with the dole and cinemas. When civilisations were at their height the men that were famous and revered were the men who were really great, men who had contributed largely to the nation's culture and achievements: nowadays the best known and best rewarded men were movie stars 'Ind sportsmen. When the interview concluded (said the interviewer), there was no need for Dr. Downey to give an assurance that he had thoroughly enjoyed his stay in Australia—such was plain at all stages. Also it was plain that in him in future the Commonwealth will have a warm and loyal friend. Dr. Downey returned to England by the Maloja, which passed through Fremantle on Monday last.

New School Blessed and Opened The new Catholic school at Wan neroo was blessed and opened on Sun day afternoon by the Coadjutor Arch bishop, Dr. Prendiville. It is a threeroom brick building with verandahs, and cost about £800. Its objective is to cater for the Catholic children of the district, mostly Italians and Yugoslays, who had hitherto attended the State school. This is the second church building that has been erected in Wanneroo within the past few years. A church was erected there four years ago at a

We do not expect the State to pay for the imparting of purely le' ligious education, but when a Catholic citizen contributes so much a year for secular education he has a right to demand that a fair share of his payments he alloted to the secular educe tion given in Catholic schools." The Vice-Consul for Italy, in a brief address, said that according as they were good Christians they would be good citizens. • Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament followed, and the hymns were sung by the congregation. Outside the church the residents had arranged for the firing of crackers, volleys of which burst upon the air during the service. The school will be in charge of three sisters from St. Brigid's Convent, West Perth, who will travel there every day Later on it is hoped to build a residence for them at Wanneroo.

Each child carried out his part in a manner which would have done credit to performers much their seniors. Equipped with sufficient assurance . to avoid that unseemly bashfulness which so frequently characterises the efforts of children, and yet not displaying an overbearing which is equally distasteful, the acting gave ample testimony of the diligent training to which they had been subjected. The various roles were portrayed as follow: Miser, T. McDowell; Servant. H. Clifford; Judge. P. Sturmer: Traveller, B. Underwood: Executioner. K. Flynn: Pedlar, S. Bus well: Judge's Clerk, D.

The realistic representation of the picturesque wings of the butterflies was a credit to the designers of the costumes. The children also carried out the drill in a pleasing manner. The parts were well sustained in the dialogue "Freckles," in which the unsuccessful beauty ef forts Qf one of. the boarders at a ladies' college to remove the blemishes from her face were laughingly portrayed. The parts were taken as follows: "Freckles" (Marjorie), Miss B. Hagan; Miss Field (her godmother), Miss J. Webb; Dora and Joan (school mates), Misses S. Hagan and I. Thorley. Mr. A. Connell is to be complimented on the efficiency of his pupils at drill and pyramids. The boys were seen in a pleasing display of drill, whilst their efforts at pyramids were praiseworthy. The clog dance by Misses F. McDow ell, P. Jane and G. Murnane was well received, and the bill was brought to a close with the action song, "Glean ers." by the senior girls. During the course of the evening, the Rev. Dean Hayes expressed the gratification of the house at the excellence of the entertainment present ed. He congratulated the children on their praiseworthy efforts and made reference to the untiring and unselfish labours of the Sisters in preparing the children for the concert.

"The Old Faith and the New Learning" Dr. Downey's "Fond Farewell to the Darwinians." nt address at the City brillia his n I Hall, Brisbane, Archbishop Downey stepped heavily on the toes of the modern "Popularisers," who masquer ade as scientists, and he stirred up some nests of waspish followers of Darwin into press controversy, from which they emerged very much bedraggled and chastened. From St. Mary's Cathedral, in Sydney, His Grace of Liverpool, sent these busy-bodies a final word, to help them on their dismal way, and though not encouraging, it should, if properly asensimilated, prove instructive and His Grace, in a hurry lightening. with packing arrangements, writes to the "Courier -Mail": From cuttings sent to me from your valuable paper, I gather that I have roused up, not for the first time, a nest of rationalist hornets. If Mr. Sutherland does not know what a ''populariser" is, and cannot see how Darwinism is essentially connected with materialism, and dpes not know the date of the work of Driesch to which I referred, he ought not to be let loose in this controversy. In his former letter he quoted as his rock authority "The Literary Guide," which is n.ither a scientific nor a literary publication, but a rationalist organ which emits more heat than light. He ought to know the danger of quoting What the soldier at second-hand. said is not evidence of what the colHe obviously means to onel meant. he offensive, and this apparently requires no great effort on his part. since, like Dogben-y's reading and writing "it comes natural." Mr. Longman, having informed previously that Darwin is buried in Westminster Abbey, now gives us a photograph of a statue of his hero. How many more picturesque irrelevancies does he intend to inflict on us? I still await one short first-hand quotation, not later than 1932, from a scr. entist of international Depute stating clearly that he accepts natural selection as propounded by Darwin. That The distinction which Mr. is all. Sutherland makes between Mr. H. G. Wells and his collaborator is surely one without a difference as their responsibility is a joint one.

PERTH, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1935.

The Influence of History Last Monday witnessed the official observation of Anniversary Day, the annual commemoration of Governor Phillips' unfurling of the British flag at Sydney Cove, on January 26, 1788. The space between, almost 150 years, has been a period of tremendous progress. Most Rev. Dr. Downey, a man of moderate words and finely balanced judgment, has pronounced it "an achievement without parallel in the annals of history " Our forbears faced problems of gigantic dimensions in a vast,- trackless continent, inhabited by curious child-like nomads. The genius and industry of man has conquered the waste, and set up an enviable standard of living, though many problems remain. But the real point of Anniversary Day, as of the many centenaries that it is becoming customary to celebrate, is the revival of the importance of history. From the Catholic viewpoint, certainly few subjects are to be more highly rated to-day than history, since it has been chiefly in this field that Catholicism has been most calumniated from the days of the Reformation. The study of the past must obviously be of paramount importance to the Church, whose root doctrine is AuA signal thority founded on her descent from Apostolic times. service was rendered 'Catholicism in this direction by the Oxford Movement, when the Tractarians attempted to identify Anglicanism with the religion of pre-Reformation England, and hence, of How that effort broke down in Newman's Apostolic times. "Tract 90" to "The Times," and how Newman submitted to the V icar of Christ, that is at once the culmination of the Oxford Movement, and the initial step in the re-birth of English Catholicism. No part of Newman's legacy to England is of greater worth than his resuscitation of the Fathers and his defence of the Sacramental system on an historical basis. His work was consolidated by Cardinal Wiseman, who presented the historical significance of the Church in clear, irresistable logic. Now that the Church has taken her place in the public and intellectual life of England, the interest in her history has in nowise The Middle Ages have been the waned, but rather increased. subject of especial study, for then it was that the Church gave to -Europe all that she had of culture and civilisation, and, indeed, all Moreover, official historical text-books that she still retains. attitude of ignoring this central misleading have adopted a fact that the Catholic Church did make Europe.

The (lire of such folly are painfully to the fore in the decay of the fine arts and the rise of much that is crude and chaotic, such as voodoo music and unintelligible painting and poetry. In religion it brings about that pitiable condition where the mind doubts fundamental realities. It leads to anarchy. Likewise in the social system, the desire to destroy the traditional notion of property and o wnership is becoming more and more in evidence. Only a true us from the k nowledge of. and reverence for, the past can save pitfalls of the future.

THE RECORD.

Native Nuns in South Rhodesia Eighteen Take Vows Eighteen Native Sisters pronounced their first vows recently, in the presence of Bishop Chichester, S.J., at the Novitiate of the Little Children of Our Lady, Makumbi. South Rhodesia. At all times the ceremony of a Sister's profession is an impressive and touching one; but this was a unique occasion, marking a great step forward in the development of the Church in Rhodesia, inasmuch as these Sisters were the first representatives of their race to take their vows. They are the first fruits of the religious life in this country, and only after long years of careful training and prudent selection were these chosen few permitted to take the all-import ant step. Only those who have lived amongst the people can realise what these courageous girls have had to contend with: what difficulties they have had to overcome, what traditions to be broken down, and what persecutions to be endured. The natives themselves showed their appreciation of what the day meant to them by flocking in large numbers to Makumbi, despite the incessant downpour of rain and the almost impassable condition of the road.

For one short interval, as the voy entes filed in solemn procession to .the priest's house, bearing in their nudst the Pope's candle, and a beautifully hand- painted banner. the rain ceased. Thence the Bishop, fully vested, led the way to the church between ranks of the Christian and haather. on-look ers, all of whom were kneeling rever ently to receive his blessing—in the mud.

Beisly, Superior of the Society of Jesus in South Rhodesia, and Father Ketterer, celebrated the Mass, at which the Plainchant was beautifully rendered by the novices.

It quickly banishes all nerve pains and pains of toothache, earache, headache, neuralgia, sciatica, and will relieve the most acute attacks of rheumatism. Furthermore `ASPRO' soothes irritable nerves and brings sweet sleep to the sleepless. More important still is the fact that 'ASPRO' gives all these healing benefits without causing gastric upsets or any other physical harm. Always keep 'ASPRO' in the home. It is a priceless boon to the suffering.

DOES NOT HARM THE HEART

Brother Downes Leaves for Geraldton Rev. Brother Downes, Superior 01 St. Patrick's Boys' School for the past nine years, who has been transferred to the charge of the Christian Brothers' Boarding School at Geraldton, left Perth for Geraldton on Thursday. Brother Downes' first work in Geraldton will be to increase the building accommodation for the boarders, and to for generally improve conditions them. His transfer will be deeply regretted in Perth by a host of friends, and by hundreds of past pupils who had the privilege of studying under him at St. Patrick's. Many past pupils owe the positions they have to-day to his unflagging interest in their welfare, for Brother Downes interest in with their the boys did not cease school years—as borne out by the fact that over 1,000 boys have been placed in positions by him during his nine years in Perth.

of the musical capabilities of St. Patrick's School was witnessed in December of last year, when a choir of 400 voices, consisting practically of the whole school, gave a recital at His Majesty's Theatre that was hailed as a unique feat of cultural expression. For his success in this department alone, Brother Downes will be deeply missed at St. Patrick's. Needless to say there were numerous other social activities at the school in which Brother Downes was interested, chief of which was the Old Boys' General Communions, which he organised and established. Upwards of 800 old boys of St. Patrick's were represented at these annual functions prior to the formation of the C.Y.M.S., which then took over the organisation of all Catholic young men's social activities. It may be safely assured that what Perth has lost in these departme.nts of education Geraldton will fully gain. It was inevitable, of course, that St. Patrick's would sooner or later have to part with its efficient and popular Superior. With the Christian Brothers, Superiors are transferred as a rule every three years. In some cases the Superior is confirmed in office for another term of three years, but it is very rarely that a Superior has had his term of office extended for a third successive period, as was the case with Brother Downes. This unique privilege was undoubtedly due to the successful work he effected there, and the strong hold which he held on the minds of the children. Although St. Patrick's will wish its old Superior the best of good luck and every succesil during his term of office in Geraldton, nevertheless, it hopes that when that first term of office is concluded, Perth will have the pleasure of welcoming him back once again to continue the good work which he has carried through so successfully for the past nine Years on behalf of primary and post -primary education in Perth. Brother Downes received his early training at the Christian Brothers' Training College at Strathfield, Sydney. A fter leaving there he taught in Svdney—at the Cathedral schools there— and at Brisbane. Melbourne and 'Ballarat—in the latter case on two occa. sions— Ballarat being his old home town.

He will be missed most of all at St. Patrick's School, whose standard of work he raised so consistently and ef of term fectively, that during his charge there, the number of pupils was Boys from all more than doubled. parts of the metropolitan area and be yond—from Cottesloe to Mundaring, and from Armadale to South Perth— travelled long distances to St Patrick's School. because of the high traditions of the training imparted there. It was in order to cater for the needs of a higher education for these boys that Brother Downes inaugurated the system of -post-primary education at Si. Patrick's. This new departure gave capable boys an opportunity of securing a University Certificate, who would otherwise be prevented from doing so, through financial difficulties. Nor was the purely scholastic work of the classroom Bro. Downes' exclusive care and interest, as was instanced by the high place which the boys of St. Patrick's held in other departAn out ments of cultural training. standing example of this was the beautifully trained boys' choir, which won for St. Patrick's the highest praise St. Patrick's from musical critics. Boys' Choir won the championships among all juvenile choirs in the State at the Musical Festivals for the past seven Years, with the result that wherever they appeared on the platform. a packed house was ensured.

He hoped Dr. carry back to England pleasant recollections of a great people and a great Continent. His Grace the Archbishop of Brisbane (Dr. J.

Their guest was a native of the Old Land, which distinguished many had given so scholars ,statesmen, and ecclesiastics Dr. to the English-speaking world.

It was rather a strange thing this matter of accent In England they had a Commission which decided the pronunciation of English for British broadcasting. Strange to relate. the personnel of the Commission consisted of one Irishman two Scots, and a Welchinan (Laugh ter). So. after all, the pronouciation of English wac- 'ocing settled by the Celts.

Sergeant Downey spent a good deal of his time in the c ompany of his relative, and was present distinguished at the civic reception in Brisbane.

Rev. Father J. Cannon, of Milton returned home recently by the s.s. Themistocles, after a 12months holiday in Ireland and Rome. Father Cannon was in Rome during the canonisation of Don Bosco, and marched in the official procession from the Vatican to St. Peter's. In Palestine he also had the privilege of cele brating Mass at the tomb of the Resurrection on Mount Calvary. Father Cannon was accompanied on his return journey by Rev. Father Thomas Moore, from Belfast, who has been appointed to the Goulburn (N.S.W.) diocese. Mount St. Benedict, Pennant Hills, the Novitiate of the Sisters of the Good Samaritan, was the scene of a double ceremony on Saturday. the 12th. ult., when 17 young ladies received the Holy Habit, and 11 others made their first Profession of Vows, in the presence of His Excellency the Apostolic Delegate (Most Rev. Dr. Bernardini), who also celebrated Holy Mass. . *

Speaking at Parkville on a recent Sunday afternoon. his Grace the Archbishop of Melbourne said that we were shortly to have an election in the State. It would be a rosy time for all ,,kinds of promises that would be made to the people by rival politicians, but there was one thing that scarcely anyone would talk about— the need for doing anything like justice to the Catholic body. which was doing so much for the State. The Catholic Church educated, free of expense to the State, about 50,000 children in Victoria. Yet who would make this prominent on the political platform during the time of the election? Cardinal MacRory said that The following changes have been the Education question was the one thing that made an unfavourable im- made among the Christian Brothers pression on him.

On Tuesday evening, the Coadjutor Archbishop presided at a meeting called for the purpose of arranging the celebration of St. Patrick's Day. It was unanimously decided by the meeting that the time was not yet propitious for the holding of a procession, because of the undue expense to parents in fitting out their children for the occasion. A committee was formed for the arrangement of an entertainment on the The commitsame lines as last year. tee consists of: Monsignor Verling, Father Kelly. Miss Anita Fitzgerald, Messrs. P. R Jackson, Sydney Smith, and J. Miniban. His Grace, addressing the meeting, announced that emphasis would be given to the spiritual aspect of the day, and that a special class would be arranged.

HOPE. Du not weep with bitter sorrow For the troubles of to-day; Keep a stout heart for to-morrow, For the skies may not .be grey. I know your heart is weary. And the fight of life a strain; The skies are sad and dreary But the sun wili shine again. Though from you good luck has parted, And your heart is tired of life, Do not sigh and be downhearted; Keep a brave heart in the strife. Though the day seems black as night, And you may not have a friend, Know 'tis virtue and not might That will conquest in the end. — KENNETH EATON. B assendean. WITH SAINT AND SAGE. Nothing makes us inure like to Jesus Christ than being in peace in the midst of persecutions.—St. Louise de Marillac. God refuses neither His holy love nor Himself to anyone who seeks Him with all his strength. Think only of God's honour and your own salvation; and even if it cost you your life, never hesitate to speak the truth, fearing neither man nor devil. True charity requires that we compassionate the smallest affliction of our neighbours, and that we bear with his imperfections. Those whose hearts ache for the touch of vanished hands can keep in spiritual contact with their dear departed ones by means of the golden link of prayer. We need nothing but love in order Love to be enriched with all goods. gives us holiness, with all its accompaniments, with both hands. It is said that many of us seek in vain for the peace and joy of Christmas, since it is too often an occasion But the of excesses in pleasures. world cannot give the peace and joy of the Crib, nor satisfy the wants of the human heart. Let not the swaddling clothes scandalise thee, which preach the humility of the Son of God. Nor let the poor little Crib trouble thee, which the King of angels hath chosen for Himself.—Thomas a' Kempis.

any pain in the eye, no time should be lost in consulting a doctor. When inflammation extends deeper than the actual. surface of the eye, it is time to beware, for this is not such a simple matter as conjunctivitis. E ven a skilled observer finds it very difficult to determine whether in a given case the inflammation is of a serious nature or not. It may, how e ver, be stated as a general rule that if the redness does not subside in a day or two with the ordinary bathing, and especially if there is much pain, the trduble is likely to be something more serious than ordinary conjunctivitis.
