How Germany Educafes Her Young Womanhoo
Up-to-date business and professional wonlen may no longer look down superciliously- on the German "h,ausfrau." Such an a titude is severely discountenanced in the Third Reich. With all due respect for the ability of the business or professional_ woman, the Hitler Government takes the standpoint that the preeminent duties of a woman are those of a wife and m other.

highly educated, as the world judges education. At nineteen she lay for two months at death's door. And the child—dead. This because of her own ignorance. That girl then set out to learn those things which she should have been taught before

The numerous women's clubs in the country have been incorporated in one large organisation, with a membership of about ten million women, under the name "Deutsches Frauen werk" ( German Women's Work). The object of this organisation is tile systematic educating and training of the German . T,01-1" for her 'purpose in life—motherhood.
"And," she told us, "believe me, my Anne at 15 is being taught how to care for her physical health. She is learning that, as a woman, health of mind- and body is. the most important thing in the world to her. She shall not go through the torment I endured, if I can help it." And so says nmdern Germany. We are ak‘ays being told tha:. the birthrate is declining, that tl- e right sort of people do not have children. or. if they do. they have imly one child—possibly t WO.

And many a voutig life—now forfeit to ignorance and apathy--might he preserved.

Having prepared these young people in every possible way for marriage and motherhood, the ( 1V ernment goes further and makes it possible, even practical. for this ambition to be realised. The State lends to every couple about to marry the sum of one thousand marks. This sum has to be repaid in time, but the amount to be refunded is reduced after each child, and after the fourth child the debt is cancelled.
Nor does the interest of the State end here. One of the principal objects of the "Deuches Fratienwerk" is to help mothers —a task hitherto left to private charity, supported largely by the Church.

Why the Kookaburra Laughs HAVE A LAUGH WITH HIM - This is what he handed in! "Kan Kum can't come. Will come when can come—Willie Kum." "We must get to the bottom o this." "What is it?." "A bottle of Scotch." "I hear the girl you're running around with now is a reducing expert." "I should say so! You should see my bank roll." A youth had just driven home from college at the close of the term. "Did you pass everything?" asked his mother anxiously. "Everything but two motorcycles. They must have had aeroplane motors in them." "My piano playing naturally is tiring to the hands." "Yes, your neighbours keep theirs to their ears till they're almost exhausted." Proud Mother: "Yes, he's a year old now, and he's been walking since he was eight months old." Bored Visitor: "Really? He must be awfully tired." •* "It's all right for you to talk about Fascism, but do you know what it would be like to live under a dictator?" "I should think- so. I've been married for ten years." "The horse I was riding wanted to go one way and I wanted to go the other." "Who won?" "He tossed me for it." Wifey: "I' heard the colic.call you a cheap swindler AvI!!,, , you. didn't pay the instalment on that new chair." Hubby : "Yes, but I made him take it back." Wifey: "The insult?' Hubby: "No, the chair." "My father and a man named McDougal have been fighting for twenty years, but they've finally stopped." "Why, did they bury the hatchet?" "No. they buried McDougal.' "Gosh, that new office boy is hopeless. I sent him out for a Corona-Corona and what do you suppose he brought back?" "A cigar, of course." "No, two tpyewriters."
Mrs. Tiggs: "I wonder what will be the popular style in hats this winter?" Mr. Tiggs: "My dear, women's hats will be divided inio two styles, - as usual—the style you don't like, and the style I can't afford." Anxious to obtain information that would help him in jury trials, a young lawyer asked an elderly man, who had served as juror many times, who. influenced him most, lawyers, witnesses, or judge. "Well, I'll tell ye how I make up my mind," the old juror replied. "I'm a plain man and a reasonin' man, and I ain't influenced by anything the lawyers say, nor by what the witnesses say; no, nor by what the judge says. I just looks at the man in the dock, and I says, 'If he ain't done nothing, why's he here?' And I brings 'em all in guilty." "I understand you have been having your family tree looked up?" "Yes, and it cost me 1500." "Quite expensive, wasn't it?" "Yes, but it cost only £200 to have it looked up. The other £300 was what I paid to have it hushed up." * Aged Patient: "I'm very much concerned. I've got into the habit of talking to myself." Doctor: "That's nothing! Many elderly people do. I do!" Patient: "That's different!

The old countryman was seeing the sights of London, and at a Labour Exchange he saw a sign on a door: "Women's Exchange." Entering, he found a woman clerk glaring at him from behind a counter, and he asked: "Is this the Women's Exchange?" "Yes," came the curt reply. "And are you the woman?" "Yes."

All the same, two years is a sufficiently long period to draw up a preliminary balance and to make it clear to those abroad what has been done and what We shall atwill yet be done. tempt to divide our short survey into three parts: internal policy. economic policy, and foreign policy. The whole world can see that we have performed one great and historic service to the nation in that the Governmtnt have taken very definite steps towards reuniting Germany, and have done away with party misrule, which was so fatal to the country, especially after the War. Our history is full of unhappy memories which go to prove that the German people have always had an unfortunate tendency to split up into separate states, parties, and classes, all of which indulged in fighting one another. The greatest service which the new Government has rendered the coun, • try is that this is no more possible, and that all speculations on = the part of foreign countries as to the "querelles allemandes" are doomed to disappointment. Let us examine this matter in detail. The working classes have been shown that they have a definite part in the State, and that this = State is friendly to them. It is true that the Government cannot ▪ yet give them everything which they would wish and that the economic situation will not allow this for some time to come, but. It nevertheless, a great change has b een brought about. Instead of class warfare there is a feeling of • national solidarity and unity with the State. In its fig-ht for supremacy in Western Europe Communism has been defeated at the critical spot, that is in Germany. The great political organisations of the Party are the champions and guarantors of this develop!tient and of the internal stabil" ItY of the State.

Exout, there have been mistakes tensive sacrifices have been made and minor frictions in National- and are being made by pri-x ate Socialist Germany, and it has, individuals in the spirit of nanaturally, not achieved perfec- tional solidarity between all tion, but it is equally certain that classes.

An Apologia Most of us know (says an editorial comment in the "Irish Rosary") the difference between an apologia and an apology. We give our readers in this issue an apologia for "Germany and the But we Hitler Government." think that an apologia generally needs an apology, especially an apologia for a modern Government. For most European Governments need to make an apology to God and man for the horrible muddle resulting from their apostasty from Christ and Christianity, for their superstitious prostrations before freemasonry and materialism, for their dechristianisation and demoralisation of youth, for their mad sophistries, cocksure theories, and their arrogant claims to absolute - power and self-perfection. And we insisted in our September issue that there is a great deal in history, both past and present, for which Prussia owes an apology to God and man. Thus the present German Government is in notable need of such an apology .for its Rosenbergianism, determined to impose paganism upon a Christian people; for its "Knights of Reaction," as the Bishop of Berlin calls neo-pagan Nazis, for the Nazi hope of Bismarck's Kulturkampi against Catholicity, for its Nordic Nonsense of racial, moral and intellectual superiority to "inferior breeds." for Dolfuss. for its victimisation of noble Catholics like Dr. Klausenner and Herr Probst in the "clean-up" of June 30th.
last, and for the monstrous official statements which followed We have no intention of discussing the economic policy, or educational or foreign policy of Hitler's Government which are set forth in the apologia of Baron These are von Rheinbaben. matters for Germans themselves. But we are concerned in the interests of Christianity that the Thor. Nazis shall be confronted everywhere by the firm opposition of Christians as an antipagan phalanx too formidable to be flouted. No wonder the Holy Father alluded on Christmas Eve to the Nineteenth Centenary .ot our Divine Redeemer's crucinxion„ and spoke of "the rene3ved proclamation of Neo-paganism, moral, social, and Statal." Russia has a government of antiChrist, the government of France is avowedly not Christian, and the Christian versus Neo-pagan issue is at grips in Germany. Nazis. like Herr Kube, seem concerned only with looking into the racial pit from which "Germanic singularity" was digged. He would be well advised to have a look also into that other and deeper pit into which Neo-pagans may descend. An apologia will not save them from descending. What is required for their salvation is apology. But apology requires moral strength which is lacking in persons and peoples afflicted with the moral weakness of personal or racial pride, and both superior persons and peoples brand themselves as being really inferior.
deavoured for six months at Geneva and in other ways to secure by international recognition and international agreements the realisation of Germany's right to equality, which had been solemnly promised in December, 1932. His attempts were in vain. With ever new excuses and finally by means of the consciously humiliating demand for a period of probation for Germany, the other Powers endeavoured to avoid disarming themselves and yet to deny Germany the right to possess, with the approval of the other nations, those arms which every other country in the world considers necessary for its de fence. On the initiative of France and Russia, both of which countries—and especially Russia—continued during the Conference to increase their armaments enormously, a new policy of encirclement was started against Germany. Attempts were made in France to turn the plebiscite in the Saar District into a fight between Germans and Germans, and finally the Saar was threatened with an invasion by French troops. Is it surprising that the reaction of the German people was a still firmer insistence on their own right to existence, Cannot the hypocritical critics of the recent German measures for defence and national security understand at length that they alone were responsible for the interruption of international co-operation with Germany? It seems that recently numerous circles, even in France. have seen that the methods so far adopted in 1934 were the w rong ones. We can, therefore, hope that the plebiscite in the Saar on 13th. January. 1935, will go off without any regrettable events, and that then the return of the Saar to the German motherland will take place quickly and without friction. Hitler and his fellow-workers have so often proclaimed Germany's passionate desire for peace that many Germans, in view of the highly armed state of the countries around Germany and in view of the enmity which seems to be borne against Germany in certain .quarters. cannot help thinking that Germany has already done enough and that it is now up to the other countries not only to speak but to act. Let us hope that 1935 will finally 'put an end to the "Versailles."' period and lay the foundations for new international co-operation for peace. Germany is ready for this and Hitler is leading her on the way.

1935.
The Peel Estate Catholic Associatior, A RED-LETTER DAY FOR On Sunday, February 19, the Peel Estate. was honoured with a visit from His Grace Archbishop Prendiyille, and, the occasion will lung remain a treasured memory by those participating. The occasion was also a sad one for the local Catholics, at is was the la§t visit to the district of the Rev. Father Linehan, who is leaving Pinjarra to take up duties at Wagin. Mass was celebrated by His Grace, who also heard confessions. Twelve candidates --children and adults—received the Sacrament of Confirmation, and there were two baptisms. His Grace arrived at about 8 a.m., acompanied by Fathers Linehan and Ryan, who came f rom Fremantle to celebrate Mass before Father Linehan's parish was extended to include the Peel Estate. The serb ices are held in Wellard Public Hall, which is hired by the Association for the occasion, who had arranged at the Mass held a month before to procure a new altar and cloths. These were supplied, and Holy Mass was c elebrated. There were about 50 present, including, of course, the children. Following the Mass and Confirmation, His Grace addressed the congregation, and his words will be remembered and treasured by the people for years. ,It• is generally very embarrassing re be told by somebody else that you are good, stout fellows, but His Grace has such a nice way of telling you the same thing in other words, that you only feel all the time that you want to get up and do a bit more. Not that we think we have done anything out of the ordinary, .but when one's little efforts are so splendidly appreciated, one has a glowing feeling that it was well worth the doing. And what has the P.E.C.A. done that it should feel that its existence has not been in vain? It has, by its efforts in the past 12 months, done what it can to help the parish-priest to keep his head ahoy, water. To those living in the city, I suppose, it is hardly realised that a parish like Pinjarra 'entails an -enormous strain on the priest, when such a parish extends about 150 miles, with small places and townships dotted about, each wanting Mass held as often as possible, and only country roads to travel over. Father Linehan comes to Wellard from Piniarra, about 40 miles distant, to celebrate Mass and then goes back about 60 miles again to prepare for Mass at another place. on the next morning, which is Sunday. Try to realise the wear and tear on the car, petrol and oil. and the fact that the whole district is in the depressed dairying aret Under such circumstances, a priest deserves all, and more, than he gets, and the P.E.C.A. was called into being to do wliat it could to see that he gets it. It has been running a year. and apart from local expenses, such as Hall hire, altar, etc., it has helped the Church • to the extent course. hell . of over £20. and very generous help. has been (riven by \yell ishers in town, 1.)tit by its organisation its two efforts have resulted in the total as shown above.

self, and its training of the children, who are still talking about his visit. Our sad part, however, come when Father Linehan had to address us and say good-bye. Parting with an esteemed one is always a sad proceeding, and our pastor has been more really to us than just a priest on a monthly visit. By his courage in smiling at his difficulties, his advice on all matters pertaining to our spiritual welfare, we owe him more than we generally feel we owe to anybody else, and our success, as an association, we feel, has been greatly inspired by his words of help, advice anit blessing.

Apostolic prefectures have been reduced in number from 104 to 102, one being elevated to the dignity of a diocese and the other attaining the rank of apostolic vicariate. Missions or districts sui juris have been reduced from 37 to 35, three being raised to apostolic vicariates. Fifty archbishops and bishops died in 1934 and 60 new ones have been appointed.

SIX
CATHOLICS IN NORTH-EAST IRELAND LORD CRAIGAVON PEEVED. Lord Craigavon who recently complained that Catholics do not thank the Northern Government of the Six County State for the benefits it bestows upon Catholics, was promptly replied to in a recent speech by his Lordship Dr. Mageean. "As citizens of the Six Counties." said Dr. Mageean, "we are entitled to equality of treatment with our nonHis Lordship Catholic brethren." pointed out that of the total cost of the extensions to the Holy Family parish schools, only 50 per cent would be paid by the Minister of Education, in accordance with the law that was brought in in 1930. "It is sometimes said." continued his Lordship, "that we are not sufficiently grateful for that Act of 1930, which gives us 50 per cent. of our school's. But we are grateful for that 50 per cent., just as we are grateful for any of the other social services to which we as citizens of the Six Counties are entitled. We are grateful for our water supply, our gas, our elec tricity. and our postmen. We are grateful for that 50 per cent. and the' moiety that is given for heating and lighting our schools, which sometimes amounts to nearly half. "We are not grateful, however, for the fact that for many years not one single penny was contributed to our schools, for erection or equipment, by the Northern Government. We are not grateful for the„, 50 per cent. that is not given us; we are not grateful for the attempted amalgamation of our separate boys' and girls' schools; we are not grateful for the refusal of every or any grant towards the maintenance and repairs of our schools; we are not grateful for being forced to contribute to the erection of other schools attached to which are conditions which keep Catholics out of them. "I hope I have explained how far we are grateful and how far we are not. "We consider that as citizens of the Six Counties we are entitled to equality of treatment with our non- Catholic brethren. "I think I can easily give you proof that education given in our schools is at least equal to that given in the palatial schools erected by the regional committees; and if the education given to the children in our schools is as well fitted to equip them for the battle of life, I for one cannot see why there should be any differentiation in treatment."

have imagined. Is-or, it must be noted here, that they had not the slightest idea of Lord Sempill's tour of Australia. This and the possibility of his visiting the Mission had been communicated to them by letters posted in the usual manner. But, evidently, Lord Sempill outran the letters by several days. Hence the surprise. Needless to say, a holiday was announced, and that day AN-as marked down with red letters in the Mission calendar. The Monks did their best to enLertain their illustrious guest in a befitting manner. If they were greatly flattered to have in their midst an English Peer and world famous aviator, they were not less delighted to be the hosts of a man whom they soon found out to be a most religious man and deep admirer of the Benedictines. It soon appeared, however, that the joy of that eventful day was not all one-sided. Lord Sempill gave expression repeatedly to his delight at finding himself' among the Missionaries. whose heroic work for the aborigines he had longed to witness. and now had captivated his tpind.
He was, in fact, so much taken up with the Missionaries and with the natives that he decided to prolong his visit and, instead of leaving in the afternoon he would stay at the Mission overnight. The first few hours passed rapidly inspecting the various buildings at the Mission—Monastery, Convent Church, native quarters, etc. etc., and in most enjoyable conversation, Lord Sempill relating to the Monks his experiences as an aviator, and the Monks in turn supplying him with first-hand information on the aborigines. This information proved to be of absorbing interest for Lord Sempill and, in order to oblige him the more, the Missionaries arranged with the natives a spear throwing competition. This was very keenly contested, .Lord Sempill being greatly impressed by the dexterity exhibited throughout. This competition was followed by the performance of .several typical dances or "corroborees," which the aboripines rendered with their usual zest to the immense amusement of Lord Senwill,"who declared he had not witnessed

anything so laughable in his whole life. The Australian aborigines, as it is well known, are born perfect mimics. Their dances generally consist in the imitaton of the various movements of certain Hence birds and quadrupeds. the names of the "Crow dance," "Emu dance," "Dingo dance," etc., etc., so familiar with the Drysdale natives. But these movements, however perfectly rendered, cannot but appear extremely ludicrous in a man. and thus excite laughter from the spectators, which is not abated by the serious, almost solemn, demeanour of the natives on such occasions. "A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the best of men." Therefore, we can easily believe Father Thomas when he says that Lord Sempill—a very good man—had a most enjoyable afternoon with the Drysdale Mission natives.
At night and over the teacups, Lord Sempill spoke to the Monks about the great interest which Teresa Neuman, the Bavarian stigmatised girl, takes in the Missions, gave them graphic description of her sufferings, as witnessed by himself, and promised to tell her on his first opportunity all about tie Drysdale Mission, that she may pray for its success in a particular way. After a good night's rest, Lord Sempill attended Holy Mass in the Mission church early in the morning of Saturday. Breakfast over, he chatted with the Monks for the last time. He congratulated them on the success of their . great. though hidden. work, and praised the Mission's "aerodrome,- which he stated, is better than many others in Australia. He thanked the Monks again for their hospitality, and they in turn thanked Lord Sempill for the privilege of his visit—the most distingushed one they had had for many a (lay. Words of heartfelt farewell followed now, and after shaking hands with the Monks and the Sisters and with not a few of the aborigines, Lord Sempill took once more to the ' air. He ascended in his usual graceful way, circled twice over the Mission, and a few seconds later even the sharp eyes of - the natives could behold Lord Sempill's rlane no more.

The plot is thoroughly Irish in subject-matter and treatment. The story deals with the the storm-tossed days when Irish patriots- were striving for Home Rule, but the tensely dramatic scenes are finely balanced by scintillating shafts of Irish wit and sprinklings of song and music arranged by Mr. Sydney Smith. This year's performance will be further enhanced by the exceptional talents of the cast, the principals of which include Misses Anita Fitzgerald. Lorna Sydney Smith, May Hart and Pat. R yan: Messrs. Fred Moore, Fred Burke, Mick Eustace, Phil JackThe son. and Stan O'Brien. abounding-, humorous touches of the play will be adequately sustained by Messrs. Fred Burke and Mick F,ustace.

PERTH, SATURDAY, MARCH 9, 1935.
The Maid or Lisieux On to-morrow (Sunday), His Grace the Archbishop will solemnly bless and open the Shrine which the Catholics of the West have so generously and lavishly donated to the glory of God and to the honour of St. Therese of the Child Jesus. In a setting of unique loveliness, the reliquary containing a major relic of the Little Flower will be enthroned. In thus honouring the Saint, the faithful are giving palpable evidence of their love of the supernatural beauty and qualities of the soul. It is in itself sufficient proof of the claims of the Catholic Church that she has this divine instinct which causes her to crown with imperishable splendour such lives as that of the Little Flower, which mirror so perfectly all that Christ taught of humility and the child-like spirit. As in the past, so to-day, the Church sets store chiefly upon the supernatural treasures which the Master commends as the chief object of our solicitude on earth. From the purely natural standpoint, the career of Soeur Therese of Lisieux was a failure. After nine years of religious life in a Carmelite Monastery, years of entire contentment, though of great suffering also, she died of consumption, at the age of 24. She accomplished nothing, in the eyes of the world, worthy to perpetuate her memory. No heroic work of charity for the poor, the suffering, or the pagans of the mission field did she undertake. Any chance of accomplishing such deeds was forever extinguished when, at the age of fifteen, she entered the Carmel.of Lisieux. setting up between herself and the world the uncompromising bars of a Carmelite grille. Yet the Little Flower that blossomed for God in the Lisieux garden has triumphed in a way so decisive that no hero of humanity can hope to vie with her. To-day there is perhaps no Saint in the Calendar so well known and so loved in all the five Continents as the Maid of Lisieux. Her triumph, like that of Our Lord's, might aptly be termed the triumph of failure. Her life succeeded so admirably because it enshrined and guarded so faithfully the ideals of Jesus of Nazareth. It is common enough to hear the petulant voice of materialism arguing that such contemplatives as the Carmelites live selfishly, shunning an active life of charity, and detached from interest in the welfare of humanity. Nothing could be more thoughtlessly false. The Carmelite does not directly contribute to the world's stock of gold, but she does something infinitely better. She keeps it rich with the golden love of God. So it was with the Flower of Lisieux. Wealth, comfort, elegance were within her grasp. That love for the beautiful in nature and art, which produced the exquisite "Histoire d'une Atne," might have ranked her an eminent writer or poet, but she spurned it all to quest for beauty of a higher order. 'She was not long seeking, but soon was a willing captive to the beauty of Christ's thought and Christ's ideal, though she clearly saw that the way she had chosen was the Way of the Cross. Therese gave the world a new type of spirituality, her own -little way." She conceived the great Saints and Apostles of the Church as the giant trees of the forest which had. stood solid and unmoved through the tempests of time. In her humility she could find for her frailty no niche with these. But she noted that beside these veteran trees grew the fragrant flowers of the forest, and they seemed to her in their miniature beauty akin to her own soul. So it is that she called herself the "Little Flower," and all the world has succumbed to the incomparable charm of that blossom. • • But it was not the Intrinsic sweetness of her personality, nor the delicate and moving expression which she gave to it, that raised the Little Flower to the Altars of the Catholic Church. It was; as in the case of all the Saints, the practice of the Christian virtneS in an heroic degree. There are not found in her life story any of the miraculous incidents that mark the lives of many of the other Saints. But she has achieved perhaps a more remarkable feat .by weaving out of the ordinary routine of daily life a story that holds the world in thrall. It may safely be said that no spiritual book or life of Saint in modern times has exercised so w idespread an influence for good as the "Autobiography" Nvritt en by Soeur Therese under obedience to her superioress. s Some thirty-five years ago God culled His Little Flower in a poor Carmelite Convent in Normandy. Dying, she whispered to her intimate friends those startling prophesies which the Catholic world walls so treasures to-day, and which are blazoned forth from the in Eternity my spend will "I Cathedral: of. her Shrine in our own interest Therese's was tremendous So earth." upon good doing happiness in humanity, that she wished to shari even her eternal give God did manner marvellous a in And with all mankind. upon this calls world whole Already the promise. her siffect to earth alsaintea child of Lisieux, and not in vain, for is not the from fallen have that petals the with carpeted ready copiously her hands?
The blessing and opening of the Little Flower Shrine, which will take place at the hands of His Grace the Archbishop on tomorrow (Sunday), marks the fulfilment of one of His Grace's c herished ambitions, and the culmination of a project which has o ccupied the attention of her clients throughout the Archdiocese for many months. The new Shrine is a fitting and artistic ad. dition to the beautiful new Sanctuary, and gives a sense of corn. pleteness to the whole, which was lacking previously, because of the vacant chapel. • In the design which is now completed, the altar is of golden onyx, one of the costliest and most beautiful marbles in existence, and similar to that which now graces the chaste Lady Chapel. In the canopied niche of the reredos, is the marble statue of the Saint, again of the richest Algerian onyx. Its delicate shade of cream verging to a honey tone, best harmonises with the conventional colour of the Carmelite robes, and where necessary the marble has been delicately tinted to complete the colour scheme. On the altar itself will be placed the monstrance-shaped reliquary of silver and gold, which vill enclose the relic of the Saint. The presence of such a relic of the Saint will serve to increase the fervour of her clients, who will daily come to her Shrine to seek her intercession with God, Who has so richly faiyoured her. * * * The walls of the chapel are decorated in marble and mosaics, varying in colour from the rich green of verde antique to the yellow-tinted verona, and from the golden mosaic of the frieze to the grey blue shading of the topmost circle. Indeed it may well be said that neither artistry or expense has been spared to create a Shrine worthy of the world's most endearing Patroness. The endet for its execution was accepted at £2,650. Of that amount little over £2,200 has been already contributed .and it is confidently anticipated that the remainder will be made available on he opening day, when it is hoped His Grace will have the plea-tire of presenting it to her clients and declaring it open for their miblic devotion, tree of all material encumbrances.
The Jubilee Indulgence Almost immediately after the closing of the Holy Door, which signified the completion of the Holy Year in Rome, His Hodiness the Pope issued a Bull extending the Jubilee to the whole world, for a period of twelve months. As that period closes on once drawn Easter Sunday of this year, atten,tion is extraordinary mere to the conditions necessary for gaining this Indulgence, which will be found in this issue. •
The extension of the Jubilee has made it possible for the faithful throughout the world to gain indulgences which were previ' ensly only available in Rome itself. The object of the Jubde.e, [icing to recall the benefits accruing from the Redemption, and lfl particular to remind us of the Sacred- Passion of Our Lord, it 1.s most appropriate that special efforts should be made to avail. of.it during the Lenten Season. The Holy Father desires that his in. tentions should be remembered by the faithful, and particularly exhorts prayers for the welfare of the Missions, and for the re' t urn of all Christians to the unity of the true Fold.

Dear Harp That Once,—Never make a suggestion unless you are prepared to uphold it by personal example. For instance, if you start off that "View to Matrimony" column, especially now during the month of St. Joseph, who is supposed to be a finder of good and dutiful husbands, then the column would become extremely popular as well as remunerative, for who would not like to tune in their hearts to your dulcet chords I know quite a lot who would be quick to respond, and then there might be a double wedding in South Perth!

I hope you are well after last week's heat.— Yours sincerely, "MECHTILDE " Dear "Mechtilde,"—Do you recognise yourself? I have given you a pen-name of a saint who was sister to St. Gertrude, and a great lover of the Sacred Heart, for you are working for the glory of that same Divine Heart, and so zealously that I trust you will gain Its sweet rewards. No, I did not think you were "fey," as you said in your second letter. When I missed the buttsI was delighted to find someone else who was a little absent-minded, because the folks at my place say only poets get that way—thanks for their later return and for yotir second invitation.

And "Love's Young she's 'a Dream" just kept on smiling—she is not "going off" at the close of her first season methinks, but if she is rather like an Amazon in size she has an extremel y f eminine face, and she knows how to hold her tongue which is, they say, a ra.re quality in the sex yrrn andIhave the honour to belong to.

Dear Mrs. Moynahan,—Many thanks to your kind lady for the offering in honour of the Sacred -Heart, and for what you are doing to spread the interest in Dr. McMahon's Scheme.

For your welcome kind and cheerful, I must render thanks to you, And I pray you be not fearful Lest I prove not always true, For the Cause that you're at work on, Is a Cause that I admire, It's a Cause that none would shirk on, And its welfare I desire. So to show my admiration (Which with proof is always best), I enclose a wee donation For your Bushies of the West, tAnd in answer to your query Re the age that I'm about, I will tell you, Aunty. dearie, It's not "sixty years not out." But as we must love you blindly, Who are readers of your Page, So I'd have you like me kindly, All indifferent to my age. Mrs. Blobbs of Sleepy Hollow, Seems to be the death on rhyme, And I find this hard to follow, For I've heard that in her time , Not a soul would get hysterics, When she read a bit of verse, For "Society" wrote ballads, Lyrics, drinking songs and worse.

"Love's round Dream Even though it is Lent, we may be permitted to talk about the lovely Bride who has joined forces with us in the Cause of the Bushies. She is now on show at Pellegrini's, in Hav - street, where tickets on her are available, and it is to be hoped that before the drawing takes place on Easter Monday, April 22nd., every-one who sees her or hears about her will be soft-hearted enough to chance 3d. on the chance of winning her. Her personal beauty, which is of the blonde type, has been enhanced by the beautiful bridal attire which is the generous gift of Mr. T. Ahern. of Aherns Ltd., and A.B. is deeply indebted to Mr. Ahern. and the members of his staff, who devoted their time and talent to the dressing. To dress a doll (even a double-jointed one) requires patience as well as artistry, and as that part of our requirements has been accomplished so perfectly, it is to be hoped that those interested in the work of the Cor ner will also become interested in the disposal of tickets. Tickets are available at the Church Offices, Victoria Square, at Miss Baker's "Little Flower Shop." Hay -street, or from Aunt Bessy.
I judge not by your hair, Or complexion fresh and fair, That you hail from County Clare, But I've confest, That your countenance of grace, And your smiling open face, Is remindful of that place, So here's a test! If I'm right in what I say, Please keep up St. Patrick's Day. Let a guinea come my way, For this I quest; But if rye played a wrong card, Then, of course, oh gentle Bard. I will not be so hard. But you'll know best. —AUNT BESSY P.S.: Permit me to congratulate you on prophesying that your above letter will have "a fame that will not perish."—A. B. South Perth. Dear Aunt BesSy,—Please find enclosed 2/6 for the Bushies, in thanks giving for favours received from the Sacred Heart, Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, St. ,Anne, The Little Flower, and St. Jude. also some old stamps. 1 sent a parcel of old stamps some time ago by post, and am hoping you received them, as I did not see them acknowledged.—Yours sincerely, MARY ANN. Dear Mary Ann,—Those old stamps did come in. As ,far as I know, though there was no name with them. only when I saw your writing to-day I recognised it, and am sorry if the acknowledgment failed to appear. Thank you now, as also for your latest donations. You seem to be very well in with the Heavenly Ones—what about poor St. Joseph? Don't leave him out of your affections. AUNT BESSY. Collie. Dear Aunt Bessv,—Will you please send another book of tickets. We have sold one. but see another opportunity of selling another. I enclose a stamp for postage, and will send the full amount of money when the new book is disposed of. Mum thinks now that we can manage two more books. please so send the two. Hoping this year will be a greater success than you even dare to hope.—Your loving niece, "BOOKWORM." Dear Bookworm,—There are two kinds of bookworms—one is the consuming type, and I do hope you are not of that kind, or else I might want to have you X - rayed and see if all the hooks I lent people and which have failed to come home have been eaten
up by you. I don't think so, some how, for if you had consumed them you would not be able to write in anything else except poetry. Be a book worm now and stick to one of those books on "Love's Young Dream" until you have made profit out of it, and then I will be waiting on the door step to welcome .you and it home again. Please thank Mother for her wise and generous thought. AUNT BESSY. Somewhere on God's Earth.

( Methinks, my little maiden, you have been slimming since I met you last, for five or six years ago I could not fit you into "a little corner," even at a squeeze—own upI ) For months past 1 have contemplated seeking admission, yet, like many another, I have put off the good intention from du to day. However, having listened to a sermon in which your Crusade was very highly spoken of, I made up my mind to write without further delay. Enclosed you will find a little offering towards the Cause, and if it is not too late, could I have a book of tickets to dispose of on behalf of "Love's Young Dream?" (You could!) I was asked to take a ticket, but thought perhaps T could do the bigger "act" and take a book. Aunt Bessy, I think your pages are great. I always read .them first. (So do I.) In fact, I heard it said recently that the' Sacred Heart must take joy in the letters. Time is up now; my little niece has come on the scene and is asking all sorts of questions, and what is more is perched on my knee, making writing an im• possibility.—Your long silent admirer, JONQUIL HABERDASHERY. Dear jonquil.—I am not sure w hether you will expect me to address You as dear "Miss Haberdashery," but have chosen the Jonquil, as I could not be so much at ease if I thought you were a mixture of needles and pins, cottons and bachelors buttons. I am so glad you have responded to that sermon which, indeed, has brought a galaxy of ladies on whose helpme feel I may now count.

AUNT BESSY Post Office. New Norcia. Dear Aunt Bessv,—As I• have pro mised to be a faithful niece this year, I must send along another letter. think Sandy called here this morning Two men called for petrol. One man with red hair and a freckled face ask. ed for the petrol. and when the time came to pay for it the red-headed one w ent to the back of the car and let the other man pay. so I am sure the red one must have been Sandy. I was sorry I did not have my book ot tickets handy, as I would have asked him to buy one. I will help Verona sell a hook. Fondest love from, MARY THACKRAY. Dear Mary,—That was Sandy sure enough, for the date of your letter coincides with the date on which my friend drove him back.; I am rather glad you did not ask him to buy a ticket, as he would have had a stroke and that would have meant medical attention, for payment of which he would probably hold you responsible.
