The heart of this great Saint will surely be as full of b y as she contemplates the mosaic lettering in the Shrine as it was when as zi child she saw the initial letter Of her name formed by the Stars in Orion's belt in the sky above Les Buissonnets.
THE LITTLE FLOWER.
It has now been announced that the Shrine of the "Little Flower'' of Jesus, St. Teresa of Lisieux in St. Mary's Cathe dral. will be officially. opened by His Grace the Archb ishop on Sunday, 10th March. Many months have passed since it was first decided to erect a Shrine in her honour in the Cathedral and during those month s the Directors of nearly all of her Shrines in the world have been consulted. The Shrine in Chicago, through the courtesy of Father Anderson. was photographed and the best from every angle. !riany others, features of this, and have been embodied in the fi nished design. As it stands, the Chapel is undoubtedly in the architecforefront of ecclesiastical ture in Australia. In it is fact, doubtful if there is such another in any part of the world. At strangefirst sight it may seem that this saint should he SC) singularly honoured. but oil considera stood. tion it is easily underWhat Saint. no matter how full of her life self-sacrifice his or on earth may ever have been. contemplated spending eterTNY solely for the good of mankind.

W hen the Shrine was first contemplated it was the intention of His Grace Archbishop Clune to execute the whole work in Australian marble. After inspecting, together with his architect, samples of all the best marble in Australia. including such wellknown varieties as Cudgegong yellow veined, Caleula pink. King Edward blue with pink veining. Borenore red and Mudgee green. he was reluctantly forced to the conclusion that Australian marbles known so far are not rich enough in colour nor soft enough jrt 'appearance to harmonise with the colour of the Carmelite robes of St. Teresa. The original idea was then abandoned and the Shrine was designed and executed in the richer Italian marbles. For the base of the walls of the Shrine the rich green marble known as "Verde Antique- was selected, and for the wall panelling a Golden Verona. a beautiful yellow marble shading to gold with a delicate pink blush show-
ing through. Over this panelling there is a broad band of Gold Mosaic with a flowing design of a garland of ruses of varied tints. This mosaic floral band has been designed by the architect here and reproduced by the artists of the Vatican Mosaic Works in Vatican City. Rome. This Cooperative Mosaic Works has supplied all mosaics used in the Shrine. The upper portion of the wall to the level of the shafts of the Gothic ceiling is covered with a broad freize in gold mosaic with the following inscriptions taken from the writinvs of the "Little Flower": "1 will spcnd my Eternity in doing good upon Earth." "I will send down a shower of Roses after my Death." These inscriptions are in clear simple Gothic lettering, readable from far down the Cathedral, without embellishment of any kind.
The colour note in the Altar is given by the well-known colours of the Carmelite robes. The conventional white marble was too cold. and again after many enquiries the rich Algerian Onyx was selected. Of the three shades of this onyx the best and most costly l% as selected, the "Oriee I otato Rubini.- As the name indicatet, it is a delicate shade of cream merging to a honey tone ith shades of ruby red. This onyx xy as obtained in Algiers and shipped to Sydney. Great difficulty and delay was occasioned in getting slabs of sufficient size and thickness for the Gothic design and carvin- of the Altar. Messrs. Melocco Bros., of Annandale, Sydney, who executed all the marble work for the Shrine, also had great difficulty in getting expert masons and carvers to work on the brittle onyx.
Between thy freize just described and the top of the dado r ..ses the wall is covered with grey blue mosaic. Each r:vosaic section is divided from the other by moulded bands of golden verona marble.
The statue is a life-size repre sentation of the "Little Flower" by Professor Nlastroicanni, of Rome, one of the leading ecclesiastical sculptors of modern times, and the marble is tinted t o the colours of the Carmelite r obes.
What has been described is the encircling casing of the Shrine and forms the setting for the Altar, Statue and Reliquary.
In the centre of the Altar, at the foot of the Statue, rests the R eliquary containing the major relic of Saint Teresa. Fittingly it is made of gold and studded with precious jewels presented by her devoted clients. The yellow gold of the monstrance-like reliquary deepens to a red gold centre and within rests a little of the earthly remains of the Saint. there to wait in Peace the Victory of the Las, Day. • The Reliquary- was made in Perth by T.evinson Bros. Ltd., and the whole Shrine and its contents were designed by Mr M. F. Cavanagh. F.R.1.11.A.. in pure Gothic detail to harmonicz w ith the rreneral structure of the Cathedral. •

Earthly crowns soon become tarnished and fade, but the crown that Our Lord has promised to the faithful religious is the eternal crown. never dimming, never fading. Crosses and trials they would doubtless meet with during their Novitiate years, and the years to follow, but the faithful Novice who accepts all trials in a spirit of Faith as coming from the Fatherly hand of God, and trusting Him confidently, will not be outdone in generosity. Their years may be many, or they ma be few, but What of that! Each morning they receive Our Lord into their hearts in Holy Communion, and so pass from this life with Him to receive the crown of glory which He has promised to His faithful spouse.

The Red Mass, to invoke God's blessing on the working of Justice in the new law term, was celebrated at St. Mary's I3asi1ica, Sydney, on the 12th inst. The preacher was the Most Rev. Dr. Wade, G.11.. Bishop of Northern Solomon Islands. Dr. Wade said in the course of his address that atheism sought by cultured and scientific words to deceive the halfeducated. All power and all authority, civil and ecclesiastical, came from God. The duty of obedience to higher authorities seemed to-day to be r ealised, but in many cases the higher authorities themselves were ignorant of the origin of their authority. Some States considered themselves the origin and source of their own authority, and that they were responsible neither. to God nor to the people. Russia and Mexico were modern ex amples of that form of higher powers, and their apostles were indefatigable m issionaries throughout the pagan and C hristian worlds. Dr. Wade contended that every person had the mark of God in their hearts, but the modern a theist adopted mystical and mystify ing nothings, making solemn scientific pronouncements, which they skilfully employed to deceive the half - educated. Those halfe - educated people were im pressed by the euphemistic, misleiding scientific terms purposely and skilfully Modern employed to deceive them. atheism sought to destroy progressiveh:'and to annihilate God by degrees, painlessly, in a cultured manner and witb good taste.

Last Sunday we journeyed to Perth to engage that branch at the return After an interesting cricket match. afternoon's cricket the match was unfinished when stumps were drawn. Perth batting first compiled the handy total of six wickets, declared, for 182. The main contributors to this total w ere K. Parker and F. Lyons. with Both these 69 and 55 respectively. players batted attractively, especially Keith Parker, who delighted the many spectators with a solid exhibition of free hitting. Our bowlers to meet with success were Joe Migro and Jim Grady, who each secured two wickets. When stumps were drawn our score Of this read nine wickets for 118. total Prank Townsend was responsible for a solid 44, while Joe Migro batted attractively for 30, being ably assisted by Bill Back with 15. G. Barrett and A. Neville were the succes,sful bowlers for Perth. During the break between innings the Perth ladies' committee entertained us with a tip-top afternoon tea. While congratulating Perth on their splendid ladies' committee, we feel that we still have a little over them in this department.

SOCIAL JUSTICE Social Justice is neither a pre-arranged blueprint nor an automatic machine. It must be worked out laboriously by a judicious combination of law and voluntary co-operation. with a due regard to the laws of economics, which are merely the clash of unregenerate human nature with the precepts of ethics. and through an interior transformation of man himself from a selfish animal to an enlightened and social-minded human being. animated by the principles of ' America."

NOTABLE SHRINE IN WELSH CASTLE (By Abbot Hunter - Blair.) Close on 87 years ago, the second Marquis of Bute, one of the most respected and public - spirited noblemen of his generation. entertained at dinner in his castle of Cardiff a number of municipal magnates and business men of that, city, and unfolded to them certain extensive and far -seeing plans which he hoped would result— as indeed they did, though he did not live to see it—in Cardiff becoming the greatest coal- exporting port in the whole of Britain. A fter expounding his views, to the great interest of his hearers, Lord Bute retired to his dressing-room, promising shortly to rejoin his guests. But he never did; for he died there, very suddenly a few minutes later, leaving a widow and a little boy of six months old, who inherited his numerous titles and great estates in England and Scotland, and cherished and venerated his memory all his life. although he had never known him. A little more than 20 years after his f ather's lamented death, on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. 1868, John, third Marquis of Bute, then in the middle of his career at Christ church, Oxford, had the happiness of being received after long reading, much heart -searching, many anxious doubts and (we may be sure) fervent and earnest prayers into the One Church. of which he ever remained a faithful and devoted son.

Our Pastor, Rev. Dr. McMahon, left us on Tuesday last for a 12- months' holiday in other lands, and before his leaving the parishioners met him in the school room on Sunday evening to wish him bon voyage and to express in a practical way their appreciation of his great work in the parish for the past two years and some months. event of his going away was not known in the parish until about tvo weeks before his leaving, so that a hurried good-bye was the best that the parish could offer. There were many good wishes expressed to him for a pleasant time abroad and a safe return to his people here again.

I wrote a letter in reply to this effect: Sir,—in a recent "Daily News- I read an interesting letter signed K.S.R. Often in my daily work my mates and I have discussions on the subject he wrote about—a subsidy towards the cost of secular education in Catholic and other ' Sectarian" schools. As far as I can see the objection to a subsidy to Catholic or other "Sectarian" schools—I don't like the word sectarian—is that as a result of it bit ter sectarian hate is generated. As one who was overseas in 1917 and one who has mixed with "diggers.' of all denominations and no denomination, I wish to say that during the war as far as I could see, in the lower ranks at all events, there was no sectarian hate. The "diggers" belonged to all kinds of religions and it was good to see and to know that the padres of all denorninations were good f riends. When the test came in the Great War we of all denominations did our bit. We were not saint,. but we stood for Australia aod whs., we thought was the right Sectarian hate!

So the Catholic Church thinks and she acts accordingly. The new-horn infant is consecrated with prayer and ceremonial to a ChT istiai line of conduct when the saving waters of Baptism are pet-red upon its head. Likewise the last mortal remains of the Christian are laid in the grave with prayer and ceremonial. At no time in the life of man does the Church relax in her care of him. Least of all is she disposed to leave him to himself at that period, when he is most amenable to impressions, and when she can best lay hold upon his whole nature and mould it in the ideal that is solely hers. Therefore is the Church ever jealous of any attempt on the part of secularism to stand between her and the child she has marked for her own, with the sign of Baptism. She knows no compromise. she can entertain no compromise; for she has never had a moment's indecision on the importance of this matter of religious education. She considers the reiigious instruction of the young her bounden duty, and it is up to the State to see that she is not impeded in the execution of it.

PERTH, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1935.
eligion an E(clücafion Quite a deal of misunderstandng still exists among nonCatholics regarding the question of religious instruction in the schools. Church schools exist because sincere members of every religious denomination hold religion to be an essential element of These Christian members are convinced that they education. would be guilty of a gross breach of duty were they to neglect this important element in the training of their children. Any system of education from which religious training is eliminated is inadequate and incomplete, and therefore an injustice to the child receiving it. Education should develop the whole child, and the spiritual side should be catered for as well as the material. And so the inculcation of piety, reverence, and religious instruction is of more importance than purely intellectual or physical development. •
On this point—the religious instruction of the young—practically all denominations are agreed. Outside the Catholic Church, however, there is no definite agreement as to the method of imparting it. Because the Church considers the spiritual training of the child the most vital factor in education, she will have nothing to do with the State schools, which officially reject religion from .the curriculum. It entails the building, equipping and staffing of Catholic schools at a tremendous sacrifice. Non-Catholic sects have not been willing or able to 'make the same sacrifice, and so the State school system has developed to the exclusion and therefore the detriment of religion. Most of the legislators who evolved the system were men who honestly but mistakenly disbelieved in religion. Some went even further. Sir Henry Parkes, the prime mover of the system in Australia, publicly admitted that he considered it a death blow to the calling of the clergy. • • • From the point of view of religion, therefore, the secular sysBut it was also unjust, for it did not give tem was defective. freedom of conscience to those sects who disagreed with it.

Not only did it not do this, but it refused to re-imburse to religious schools the amount which had been paid in taxes for that purpose. In England, at the present time, Catholics receive back their own share of the taxes in the shape of Government support for their schools, but in Australia the Government uses Catholic taxes for its own State system and forces the Catholics to pay over again for their own. • When, therefore, writers fail to see the injustice of the secular s ystem, it implies either that they are not fully conversant with the cenditions, or that they are prejudiced against religion altogether. This latter prejudice is. of course, a palpably foolish one. It is opposed to all the lessons of history. "There is indeed nothing more wonderful in the history of the human race," says Lecky. the Historian, "than the way in which. the ideal of Christianity has t raversed the lapse of ages, acquiring a new strength and beauty with each advance of civilisation and infusing its beneficent influence into every sphere of thought and action." The teachings and practises of religion form an essential part of our eivilisation.

The
Month
of
St.
Joseph
"A faithful and wise steward, whom the Lord setteth over his family; to give them their measure of wheat in due season." This is the encomium which the Church makes over Joseph the Carpenter of Nazareth, applying to him the words of his incomparable Foster -Child. So eminent has St. Joseph become in the Calendar of the Saints and in the mind of the Church that two solemn feastdays are annually celebrated in his honour. and the month f March is dedicated to his special veneration. The public recognition of the sanctity of St. Joseph can he traced back to the early Christian ages both in the East and West, and the cultus grew with the centuries with a wonderful and unprecedented popularity. One of the first acts of Pope Pius IX. was to elevate St. Joseph to be Patron and Protector of the Universal Church, in response to the petitions of the bishops and the faithful. Not to be outdone in honouring him whom Jesus and Mary so honoured, Pope Leo XIII. approved the votive office of the Saint on certain days, while Pius X. sanctioned a Litany in his honour.
the Gospels give but meagre details of the life of St. Joseph perhaps for the sufficient reason that there was nothing of an extraordinary nature to record. Joseph's years are the story of an ordinary, even humdrum life. extraordinarily well lived. Of the royal house of David., he was betrothed to Mary, of whom was born Jesus - Who is called Christ." The Evangelists decribe how sorely he was tried by the mystery of Incarnation, and how heroically he stood by the Blessel Mother until the Angel --evealed to him the astonishing miracle that God had wrought in Mary by the overshadowing of the Holy Ghost. He was a "just man" called by God to the supreme vocation of the protectorship of the Holy Family. To him were entrusted the rights and duties of fatherhood over the Divine Child, to him it was given to be at once the spouse of Mary and the guardian of her Virginity. It was a marvellous position for a man to occupy, though its responsibilities were .proportionate to its elevation. Joseph was constantly enmeshed in circumstances which called for the exercise of heroic and unfaltering trust in God. That loyalty to which God entrusted His most precious jewel was never found wanting. • Among all the titles given to St. Joseph in his litany, those which call upon him as "Head of the Holy Family - and "Glory of family life" are most pregnant in their significance for our age. That little household, at Bethlehem, in Egypt. in the long, lovely years at Nazareth, is to be the model for all time of family life. Father, mother and children linked together by natural affection and the supernatural bond of charity will look back to that homely Piffle circle for their spirit. And th- e head of that house is Joseph. In our time, organised forces are at work to destroy the family and to undermine home life. Besides divorce, birth prevention and s terilisation. which stand condemned by their very grossness, there is the modern spirit of heedless hedonism which tends more and more to attract youth away from home life and home influence. The philosophy of rebellion, too, is rife in certain popular authors, who endeavour to weaken or destroy the claims of parental authority. Opposed to it all is the figure of Joseph. "head of thef Holy Family. and Marv. Mother of Christ, and Jesus Hinlsel who "was subject to them." On one point of the life of St. Joseph tradition i.s very strong. It is upon the end of that saintly lfe--thc death of Joseph. Tradition maintains that he died in the arms of Jesus and Marv. This. has given to St. Joseph a unique claim to the title and office otf patron of a happy death, since he himself died the most blessed 0, deaths. In point of fact. Catholics have ever looked to him wit'' confidence when praying'for the grace of dying in God's favour. and of securing that peace of conscience which will withstand thie, fears and terror incidental to the soul about to pass from "nut thi.t bourne of time and space." In truth. St. Joseph is one of the tflO loveable of the Saints, and one whose example is perhaps illOSt adaptable to the lives of the majority. St. Joseph had the resPcm'e. sibilities of a husband, he was' the bread-winner. His life wa d of labour and of poverty. It was fitting that he who had livedy solely in relation to the needs and welfare of Jesus and Mar.-A have them present at his death -bed. Of old, Pharoah Sa.1 to the people in their need. "Go to Joseph." To Catholics in the daily routine of life, and in the end of life. the Church re-ech°e "Go to Joseph."

He was proud of his associations with the Society and proud of the fact that last year he had been successful in obtaining very useful concessions from the education authorities in the matter of free training for their teachers. Although his seat in the Senate entailed many meetings. he was gratified to know that much good had resulted. He thanked them all for their good wishes, and in his travels would compare notes for future use to the Society.

Above is a photograph of the Reliquary which has just been executed at Levinson's to contain the precious Relic of the Little Flower, whose Shrine is just now being completed, in St. Mary's Cathedral. The r eliquary, which is in the shape of a Monstrance. is a veritable work of art. It is set with precious stones, made to harmonise in colour, size and shape with the surrounding metal work.

In the Cross which surmounts the Reliquary is set a blue sapphire encircled by diamonds. Surrounding this circle are four West Australian pearls, while the base of the Cross is a large oval shaped ruby. These precious stones, as well as all those used in the adornment of the Re liquary. are the gifts of clients of the Little Flower. The most ornamental portion of the Reliquary is. of course, the central enclosure which encases the Precious Relic. It is a golden pyx shaped case. ornamented with precious jewels, including two large opals. white sapphires, moonstones, amethysts and crystals. Dark blue sapphires and Australian rubies adorn the fluted radiating zones which surround the Relic enclosure, while the shaft and base supporting this are set with gracefully executed Mother of Pearl carvings.

Prior to starting the qcientific quest. Father INtillY left Halifax on the famous mi&sion schooner, Pius XI. to visit the missionaries working among the Eskimos and Indians. The trip was about 3500 miles up the coast of Labrador and around Hudson Bay
to Chesterfield Inlet. The schooner is niv 67 feet long. From the Copperrnine district, Father Dutilly travelled by airplane to Cameron Bay and carried on his e xploration there. obtaining much data of value on Eskimo diets and nutrition. A ccomplishments of the priettexplorer include navigation and radio. in both of which spheres he found ample scope while so far from civilisation. He had a radio set in the Pius XI. and kept in touch with Government radio posts. While in the north he installed a wireless set in the mission ship Our Lady of Lourdes. Father Dutilly states that the Catholic mission transportation organisation mainatins 3.000 miles of transport mutes linking up the mir inns of the north.

Sisters Praised for Their Work Among Lepers
The work of Catholic missionary sisters at the Rangoon (Burmah) Leper Asylum is described in an article which appeared in a recent number of the "Rangoon Gazette." This asylum, founded by the Paris Missionaries in 1896, accommodating at present more than 450 lepers, be longs to the Catholic Mission of Lower Burma. The Franciscan Missionaries of Mary are in charge. "Here at the Asylum in Hantha waddy Road. where Father Rioufreyt shepherds his flock of helpers," writes the correspondent, "we were asked to go to see one of the visible and tangible results of that human, blessed pity, which alone can explain permitted pain. "We saw a fine, airy, two- storeyed building, modern in all points, where gracious colouring, practical thoughtout detail, dainty gifts. bear testimony not merely to the sense of duty that provides asylum and sheer necessities, hut to that divine sympathy which gives life to the sick and weary. We saw also a touching little entertainment, the plucky attempt to hold at bay the Giant Fear. the Demon of Despair. "The patients themselves had made al! the dresses, devised and painted the scenery, and did the entire producing of a well - acted Burmese play. We laughed and applauded, and sure I air, that there were not a few throats in which a lump.' time -honoured expression to indicate swallowed t ears, made itself felt. "And finally we saw a little company of white-robed nuns. These are they who have given their whole life and v l. service i ce to the succour of lepers: who, counting the cost, dress their

wounds daily; who, by their own s trong selfless faith, give them constant cheer and encouragement. "A sturdy little band they are. No look of exhausted, emotionalised religious fervour here; no atmosphere of slightly superior spirituality which can cause the outsider to shrink under a sense of carnal unworthiness. On the contrary, the gayest of welcomes, the friendliest of interest, and a sense of being considered not a whit inferior to themselves, this was the entirely convincing impression conveyed in their presence. "And the still stronger conviction
came to me: 'How happy they are. How happy . . . "They never go home to see their friends in far - away beautiful France; they have put all that behind them, and I do not think that they can ever allow themselves the luxury of thinking about it; and they never want 'to take a holiday, it would seem. And— they are happy. "I went home with a strange ache of envy in my heart, realising that here, in this quiet by - way of a busy town, in a world worse than worldly, as it may sometimes seem to some of us, they walk. the White Robed . . already in the Gardens of the Blest."
The Quintuplets in Art Three prominent artists in Hamilton, Quebec, have used the Dionne quintuplets—the children, now seven months old, of a humble French Canadian couple—as a symbol of a Divine challenge to birth control in a crucifix piece which they carved. The ensemble. in which Melville Jack, wood sculptor, Robert Cruikshanks and David Miller collaborated, shows the living Christ upon the Cross endowing life upon five cherubs depicted as emerging on wings from the heavenly background. which is within the quadrants of the Cross, The carving was given to the Dionnes for Christmas and will be either retained in the Dionne home, in the memorial hospital where Dr. A. R. Defoe, their medical attendant, is guardian, or on the wa7.mide as a shrine The three artists collaborating in the crucifix are Protestants but have
done much of their work in CatholiF . structures. Mr. Jack is a brother of Richard Jack, R.A.; Mr. Miller is a veteran Scottish carver. Mr Melville Jack conceived the design, Mr. Cruikshanks did the laminating. and Mr. Miller the actual sculpturing. Mr. Jack explained that dissertations against birth control by the Most Rev. John T. McNally, Bishop of Hamilton, suggested the theme of the carving to him. "I thought the birth of the quintuplets should be interpreted as a Divine challenge to the modern trend.- he said. "I toyed with the idea, finally sketched a rough design, and David Miller caught the theme in his carving. As the cherubs took form, we decided there was only one place for the crucifix—Corbeil—and that it should be erected there as a permanent, reminder of the spiritual ,ignificance of their birth.-

THE DREAMER. No matter how the future seems, The dreamer dreams his pleasant dreams, And hopes against all hope, and schemes Sweet schemes beyond attaining. No matter how his fortunes sink, The dreamer, never one to shrink, Goes onward hopeful to the brink, Fresh hope forever gaining. No matter what he has to face, The world's to him a pleasant place, All full of loveliness and grace, While he can go on dreaming. And &en though evil may be rife, He does not think about the strife, But sees the pleasant side of life Behind the dark clouds beaming. He does not think about the past, Nor of the shadows o'er him cast; He dreams all will be well at last And all his troubles ended. He dreams that strife will be at rest. Forsees the triumph of what's best, When men will live in concord blest, In one great friendship blended. He dreams of rosy days to be, And so goes onward cheerily. Hoping against all hope to see His dreams' fulfilment nearing; And though he knows his dreams are vain, They bear him up through loss and pain, And give to him fresh• hope again To go on persevering. Kenneth Eaton, Bassendean WITH SAINT AND SAGE. Let us ask God to supply by the help of His Grace what by nature is not possible to us.—St. Benedict. As we are children of saints, let us walk in their footsteps, if we wish, like them, to win thrones in heaven. "Wilt thou be made whole?" is a trying question when it comes to be well considered. A truly wise man always bears in mind that there are many who know at least as much as he. No man can save himself from moral destruction amid the licence of modern life unless he continuously practises mortification and self -denial of the senses. It is not only the hatred of the wicked that wounds the Sacred Heart, but also, and still more, the indiffer ence and negligence of His friends. There is no means by which a creature can so taste and be illuminated by truth as that of humble and continual prayer, founded on the knowledge of God and of self. Let us pray, and, like sowers sow ing their 'seed, let us not faint: the time when we shall reap is not far distant —St. Augustine. The heart that unites itself to the !wart of God cannot prevent itself from loving and meekly accepting the arrows launched against it by the hand of God.—St. Francis de Sales. To live in God's presence is the only !ose When way to perfection. sight of Him we walk in the dark. we choose shadows for substances, we fall into snares and errors, we are exposed to our enemies, our infirmities, etc. What do we seek in this world, where one can breathe only an air poisoned by so many crimes?

Holy Communion. and Blood of the Lamb Body The , of God that was slain are given to the soul to be the powerful antitode of . concupiscence, the sweet medicine of all its inherited and acquired ills. And so it is safe to say that there cannot be any loss of faith so long as the soul is strengthened by the worthy reception of Holy Communion —RevJohn A. Elbert, R.V . Ph.D. Eternity. I look forward into the eternal years and see myself at last in my rest on the bosom of God. All over! Life. and uncertainty, and death, and judgment, and purgatory. And with my head on the Heart of Him Who has loved me to the end, I look back. How clear everything is from this height. in this unclouded light and this All mists swept untroubled peace! away: all doubts dispelled: all questions set at rest; all cravings satis fied.—Mother Mary Loyola. The Peace Of God. My God, give me such trust in Thee that I may be able to take literally Thy words: "Be not solicitous." Let not the cares of this life so weigh upon me as to trouble my peace. Give me the filial trust that Thy blessed Apostle Paul laid as a duty on Thy first disciples: "Be nothing solicitous, but in everything by prayer and supplication let your petitions be made known to God. And the peace of God which surpasseth all understanding keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." (Philip, iv.) — Mother Mary Loyola. Confidence.

The Spiritual Life. The spiritual life is subject to many wonderful changes. both external and internal: and all are according to the goodwill and pleasure of God.

Let us not tie ourselves too fast to any exercise, nor refuse any to which God may call us, seem it ever so strange. and to the natural In His guidman, even senseless. ance there can be no shadow of danger. but all is secure. And this should be a great comfort to the devout and resolute soul.—Ven. Augustine Baker. THE WISDOM OF FATHER DEGEN. Provided production does not suffer, and wages are not reduced, and the extra leisure is not seriously abused, the movement for a five - day w eek in industry deserves support. There is no reason why pictorial and artistic merit should not characterise mass-production in the same degree as individual craftsmanship. Communists should work for the radical reform of capitalism—not for its complete destruction. Ninety-five per cent. of the domestic strife between a working-man and his wife is due to the daily struggle to make ends meet. We are steadily losing our freedom and self -reliance through the growth and increasing pressure of bureau cracy. The most dangerous enemies of the cause of Christianity are those capitalists who, in the interests of oppression and greed. exploit the Christian virtue of patience and contentment with one's lot.

Catholic News from Everywhere The giant belfry of the 12th century. Cathedral of the Holy Cross of Coimbra, Portugal, was recently felled by the use of firehoses. Two days previously the belfry had tilted to a dangerous angle, menacing the crowded dwellings around the Cathedral. Firemen played their hoses into the foundations and into the fissures. When the belfry fell it sent up a cloud of red dust which enveloped the neighbourhood. Comparatively little damage was done to the neighbouring buildings, and the historic Cloister of Silence was untouched. It completely wrecked the post office and the prison.

SPAIN'S CATHOLIC LEADER The three Catholic members of the present Spanish Cabinet, led by Senor Lerroux, are all members of the CEDA, the Catholic Party, whose leader is Senor Gil Robles. They are Senor Aizpun, Minister of Justice; Senor Anguera de Soja, Minister of Labour; and Senor Jimenez Fernandez, MinisDon Rafael ter of Agriculture. Aizpun is from. Caparosa, in the province of Navarre. He is fortyfive years old, and 'completed his brilliant career as a law student at the University ,.of Barcelona while still very young. As a member of the Basque -Navarre minority in the Constituent Cortes, he made a name for himself both as an orator and an authority on constitutional law, especially in his fight against the Law of Con fessions and Congregations. He is vice -president of the CEDA. Don Anguera de Soja, with the advent of the Republic, was named Civil Governor of Barcelona. He is the implacable foe of disturbers of the public order, and his appointment as Minister of Labour ROBLES. is a bitter pill for the Socialist and Communist strikers and agitators. In 1932 he was named Treasurer -General us the Republic, and occupied that position until last August. Recently he accepted the responsibility for organising a Catalonian party affiliated with the CEDA. The thirty-eight- year-old Don Manuel Jimenez Fernandez is from Seville. As a student he distinguished himself in the field of law, philosophy and letters. and since graduation has been a member of several University faculties. He has been intensely interested in a gricultural and labour organisation, and is an ardent defender of the Christian social standard. Under the Republic he was elected to the Court of Constitutional Guarantees, representing the Faculties of Law. He served in the Cortes ac Deputy from Badajoz.
