dared that Father McKay, whenever he visited Perth, talked most of the time about Carnarvon and gave the town and people a great deal of praise. Now that he (the speaker) had seen the town, he expressed himself as being very favourably impressed with it, and could understand Father McKay's pride. He was glad to have been able to visit the -Banana Plantations. Speaking of the overland trip up, however, Dr- Sullivan was anything but complimentary in his references to the road. "Next time I come to Carnarvon I will come by 'plane," he declared. Referring to the fact that the new church had been designed by the Rev. Dean Hawes, of Mullewa, Dr. Sullivan said that while Father McKay was very pleased and proud with the work, as well he might be, the Dean must also be very pleased with the result of his plans, and no one more happy than he to be present at the open: ing of the church. He himself had enjoyed his visit to Carnarvon and was grateful to Father McKay for the opportunity of making the visit. Very Rev. Dean Hawes. The Very Rev. Dean Hawes. in a few brief remarks, also expressed his pleasure at having an opportunity of visitng Carnarvon for the opening of the new church and complimented Father McKay on his enthusiasm and work in the town and district. He also complimented the ladies responsible for the providing of the excellent luncheon. His Lordship's Address. His Lordship the Bishop of Geraldton (Dr. O'Collins) said t hat he was pleased to again visit C arnarvon, particularly as it was the occasion of the opening of the new Church of St. Marv, and he cong-ratulated. Father McKay on the attainment of something to which he had looked forward for a long time. He endorsed the remarks of previous speakers r egarding Father McKay's championship of Carnarvon, and now he would no doubt be also loud in his praises of the new church. Dean Hawes had done a great service in designing churches. Many of the churches in different country centres have been designed by him. The Carnarvon Church, however, was somethinc,/ to be specially proud of. (Continued on Page 9.)

• According to a recent report, all Church lands in Queensland, except those from which revenue is derived, are to be exempted by statute from municipal rates. These will include convents, presbyteries, and all such properties, and a special amendment of the Local Authorities Act to grant this concession will be introduced in Parliament shortly The Bill is the result of a number of disputed rating cases which have received the attention of the Government in recent years. The most notable was the case concerning the convent at Southport, which Mr. Acting Justice Hart and the Full Court of Queensland declared to be free from rating. When the Southport Town Council took the matter to the High Court, however, it obtained an opposite verdict on aPpeal. The point at issue in that case was whether portio n of the property was used exclusively for school purposes, the c ontention of the, council being that, at certain times of the year. it was used as a residence for nuns. The forthcoming Bill will place this question doubt, as the exemption beyond will apply to the property of all bodies, whether used for church school purposes or not. The only reservation will he that o wned by any church property and and rented for purposes leased of furnishing revenue shall he require d to pay rates as usual. Land on which churches and church schools are built is alread y exempt.

Notwithstanding the completion of this year's increase in membership competition, branches are urged not to slacken in their efforts to introduce new members into the society.

and proud with the work of Father McKay and the parishioners. It was a great tribute to Father McKay's personality that many contributions had been received from people in Perth and G eraldton. The Bishop emphasised the value of the work done by Dean Hawes. As an architect's fees were usually 6 per cent, of the contract price of a building, it could easily be seen what was saved on the cost of the church as the Dean. of course, did not ask any fees. .

Communism, The Cult of Hate Attack on Religion Its Essential Policy
Cummunism as a system of hate taught to hate him. The Con, was the subject of an address at inunist can do nothing the American Eucharistic Con- but I can offer him for rae,
gress in Clevelaqd by former Governor Alfred Smith of New York. Declaring that he did not propose to attempt to deal for a single moment with the economic features of Communism, Mr. Smith set forth the reason why Communism attacks religion. Saying that he did not understand Communism as an economic philosophy, he declared: "Results of it can be understood" "The worker in a Canitalist State," he added. "is infinitely better off than the worker in a Socialist State. The question is asked why is the Communist
State attacking religion: why is it necessary for the Communists to teach that there is no God? Because Communism assume:: that 'religion is a weapon. of capitalism.'" Communist Predicament. Citing the training of ror, munist youth in atheism. Mr. Smith quoted Marx. emphasising the denial of the right of private property. "T submit." he went on. "that there is reason for the Commimist to preach against religion. That reason is the fact that ownership of property is a God-riven right, and that .wr. can never take away this Corl-g-i;im right to possess it. Thus, the Communist must deny the exist of God." Describing Christ's answer relative to the tribute to Caesar. Ff. said Our Saviour, in reply to questioners set up two States. "one for material welfare seri the other for salvation of our iinncrtat souls," and " established for all time the relation between the State and religion and that hctween the citi7en and the State." "The Communist." Mr. Smith aded. "must deny the existence of Christ to get away from the logic of that answer. No gocialist no Communist, no person can successfully chalenge the teaching of Our Divine Lord." Quoting from the Soviet Education Commissioner, Mr. Smith stressed the doctrine of hate therein urged. This man. Fe said, declares: "We hate Christianity and we hate Christians. We must learn to hate." Then. with typical vigour. Mr. Smith a sserted that the monkeys in Central Park Zoo "look like a group of college professors pared to men that would teach such a doctrine."

INTERDEPENDENCE OF SCHOOL AND CHURCH Communism Indicted On Sunday last, His Grace the Archbishop officiated at the blessing of a new School-Church, which has been erected for the Yugoslav residents of Herne Hill. Situated by the roadside in a delightful setting of vineyards; and virgin country, with the Darling Ranges for background, the new building is a neat brick structure, with a small. castellated porch. The interior is in pure white, while the sanctuary is set in an alcove. The altar, also in white, was beautifully arrayed, in multi-hued roses by the Sisters of Mercy. Save for the seats, the Church is well equipped, with electric light, harmonium, etc., and has commodation for about 150 people. His Grace, in the coutse of his address, paid a tribute to the work of Rey.

The Fools' Pararlise Elsewhere in our current issue appear the comments of Mr. A sircd Smith. former Governor of New York, at the recent Cleveland Congress, on Communism as a cult of hate, and nearer home, the strong denunciation made by His Grace the Archbishop on Sunday last at Herne Hill, at the opening of the new school-church. Now this conflict between the Catholic Church and the powers of Marxism is very real, and constitutes perhaps the most vital issue of our time. Its insidious doctrines, denying elemental human rights, have infiltrated into every country, Australia not excepted. Particularly during the difficult years of the world's "depression" men have been driven to Communism by economic necessity and dissatisfaction with the existing social order. The Communist spurns religion because he regards it as a drug by which the masses are disposed to suffer economic ill with the prospect of redress in another life. Yet he himself would claim their allegiance with similar, though earthly. promises. The important factor to decide is the trustworthiness of the authorities for the respective promises. Even if religion did ask men to be content with a future supernatural prospect (which it does not), it would still be infinitely preferable to believe in a certain Heaven than in the very dubious fools' paradise held out by the Communist. Communism, at least in its origins, had its economic doctrines laid in a theory of history. Marx read all history as the record of a struggle between social classes, between oppressors and oppressed, and this struggle. he claimed, was the key to social evolution— the force which impelled men along the path of progress. Yet, by a strange anomaly. the inevitability of this conflict is. in the consummation of Communism, to be inexplicably displaced to give way to a classless and Stateless society. Unhappily for the Communist contention, however, all that Communism has been able to achieve to date has been a dictatorship of the proletariat and the total subordination and sacrifice of humanity to the State machine. So far from withering away. the State in Russia is. from day to As far as Marx's -lay, growing stronger and more centralised. .heory of class warfare is concerned, it is enough to say that, from the earliest' days of which we have any record. mep have felt the need of living in civil societies to attain their malfimum temporal v.elfare by their co-operative efforts. It is incredible that internal conflict should be an essential law of an association based upon a natural need for co-operation: conflict and co-operation are of their essence contradictory. • Though it is plain that neither in class-organised civil society. nor in the economic process, is class-struggle inevitable, still it has existed in the past and will exist in the future. These unfortunate manifestations of class hostility had their roots in moral causes. mainly in selfishness. This arises from the selfishness of the members of a class and from a misconception of their true interests. Since the evil is a moral one, so. insists the Pope. is the remedy. The only lasting cure is the adopt in and practice of the anti-selfish principles of justice and charity. An important point to realise is that the practice of these virtues in indestry lies with individuals. There has been a great deal of loose and vague talking of "classes." class as such has neither vice nor virtue. These are the moral qualities of the indivi,!!,als who compose the class. Social reform depends to a very lar,ge extent on moral reform and it is individuals who must take the initiative in resisting any action by others of their class which their conscience disapproves. The moralisation of social relations demands a spiritual revolution . We have said little of a critical nature in regard to Communism. because it \‘'-ould seem more profitable to offer the constructive teaching of the Papal Encyclicals. Tt is not enough for Catholics to he able to discern the fallacies which underlie Communism in its moral, social and economic a pects. They must have a positive set of principles to offer, and these are to be found in the clear social teaching of Len NUT. and the present Pontiff. We have already snoken f the Communism tenet of class \var.

Miller (broFortified by all the rites of the Church, of which he was a most devout and zealous member, and amidst all his family, Mr. Francis Joseph Miller, of 141 Duganstreet, Kalgoorlie, passed peacefully away at St. John of God Hospital, Kalgoorlie, on Novemher 2, 1935. The late Mr. Miller was 67 years of age, and was born in Nanawading-, Victoria. He came to the West about 39 years ago to try his luck in mining ventures in Bulong and later in Kanowna. . where, with his family, he resided for about 17 years, being an ardent worker for the Church and also a councillor of many years standing. Coming then to Kalgoorlie in 1915, he followed the occupation of blacksmith in the Water Supply Department until five years ago, when he again tried his luck at prospecting with a fair amount of success. The deceased had been in failing health for some time, so, although his death came as a shock to many, it was not wholly unexpected. At 7 o'clock Mass on Sunday, His Grace the Archbishop paid touching tribute to the exemplary life of deceased. Requiem Mass was celebrated at 10 o'clock by Rev. Dr. Kennedy The funeral cortege, preceded by His Grace the Archbishop, Rev. Dr. Kennedy, and Father Grennan, left St. Mary's at 2.15 p.m. for the Catholic portion of the Kalgoorlie Cemetery, where the remains were laid to rest. The Rey.

It will be the tinpleasant duty of the committee to declare defaulters ineligible for participation in the distribution of gifts, the recipients of which will be determined by the opening of the sealed cards. Perchance it may be your name in one or other of the 45 envelopes bearing the symbols which have been .allocated gifts. However. cornplete any deficiency in payments due and come along and witness the opening of the cards. Tuesday and Thursday evenings are what might he termed Shillings and Pounds nights. It is on these occasions, week in and week out, that euchre and whist card science is tried out. The admission is only a shilling. pounds-are paid out in prizes, and a vent,e where.. the parish social spirit may prevail is provided. So he at the school early (unlike the Tardy Scholar) on these days, exercise your skill with cards, maybe win a prize. but certainly meet the debt—which is the parishioners' debt—on our parish buildings.

Lanigan brothers, Bob and Pat, opened the innings to the bowling of J. Knox. Failing to strike a length, Knox caused the batsmen little trouble and runs were scored rapidly. When the total was 47, Bob Lanigan was caught behind. He had contributed 39 of this total. V. Chine, who took his place, was out of form, and after a poor display of batting was bowled round his legs for 18. j. Chine, who was next batsman, hit hard and after a merry knock for 37 was clean howled by Harding. J. Taylor, a member of the Mission C.C., gistic references were made of the sterling qualities of the members in This was backed up by a question. practical gift from the Star of the Sea adherents to their old comrade, Jack. Vocal and instrumental items, interspersed with dancing, made a very pleasant and enjoyable evening. Another Appeal. Some few weeks back an appeal was made for gramophone records for an orphanage. This was responded to with marked success. Now members are again called upon to give some Xmas cheer, to a boys' orphanage. At Clontarf tennis could be played if racquets were available Should any member have in their possession old racquets that could be discarded they would be appreciated by the committee to help in a deserving cause. The Association will supply a quantity of balls if the response to this appeal is successful. St. Mary's Tennis Club. On Sunday last, the new courts. in Brittania-road, were opened from a playing point of view and the apprecia• tion of the members was manifest by the fact that nearly fifty of them attended the courts during the day. Hence the four courts were used dun ing the whole time from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. The enthusiasm of the members Was very satisfying to the members of the executive and everything augurs well for the entire success of the club's enterprise. The new mem. hers soon made themselves at home and a spirit of comradeship was evidenced by all. The club still has room for a few more members, and anyone interested is invited to communicate with the secretary. The dance held on the 12th. inst. was again a very great success, and on Tuesday next a flannel dance will take place and members of the Association generally are invited to co, operate in making it a success. On each Saturday a very fine gang of members employ themselves in the work of beautifying the grounds and in a short time the premises will he cplite comfortable and attractive
gave by far the best exhibition of batting, hitting the loose deliveries with great power. After scoring 29. he was run out owing to a splendid return by Knox fielding at mid-on. The tail offered little resistance, and the innings closed at 176. The College opened with Brother Charles and V. Brand, but disaster soon overtook them w hen the score was 21. Brand, who had been batting nicely, was unfortunately run out. With the advent of Harding bright cricket continued. R. Taylor, who replaced J. Clune at the bowling crease, kept the runs down and had Harding in difficulties. In his second over he had the batsman dismissed, splendidly stumped by V. Clune. Carmody replaced Harding, but soon lost his partner, who was clean bowled by Graham after c ompiling 50 in rapid time. The rate of scoring then lessened and the next two batsmen offered little resistance to the bowling, Seward being caught for 4 and K nox being out for a "duck." The remaining batsmen, E. Benson and E. Bott, played out time. Scores: Combined Team.

ALL SOULS' DAY
k Reprinted by Request).
We may not wake again in that dear land Where wintry winds blow cold and fierce and drear; Nor scan the little graveyard near the church, Where marble headstones mark each pasSing year, Where month by month God's acre widened out Its restful arms to clasp our dearest dead, Nor shall we kneel again upon its sod, To say a De Profundis with bowed head. Yet, oh ye Irish graveyards, ye shine out On exiles far from ye this holy day; We reverent tread the same familiar paths Where we were wont to work and fast and pray; Where we were wont to gather for the Mass, And through It plead departed souls' repose. Now he is dead who offered up that Mass, And we ourselves are like the withered rose. Strange thing last night the wind came beating down, The wind sobbed high and low, then seemed to flit; A vision came with cabin of thatched roof, And on one window-sill a candle, lit. I seemed to hear my dear grandmother say Skil, she was Irish, yes! and loved the lore). 'Whisht child, and list' that noise is not the wind, It is the Holy Souls who pass our door. "Those raindrops there so sad and pitiful, Child dear, they're not raindrops, at all, at all, Sure, they're the Holy Souls who wandering go Asking a prayer from those on whom they call." ..I quickly sought to feel her shawl's soft warmth, I quickly sank beside her on my knees, With her I watched the Holy Souls go by, gore quickly than the wind moved through the trees.

I hope I beamed, because he had uttered something that I could really agree with him on. "The Editor told me I could call and find out if every Catholic family was getting a 'Record' each week, and perhaps where only one 'Record' is being taken, two could be read with profit and enjoyment, and without the trouble of being called for or bought on Sunday, as we could post you the number you require with no extra cost to your family, as we guarantee post free." I was, I hope. properly appreciative of the last weighty consideration, and duly sympathetic when Mr. Dash capped my remark "that it was a great pity 'The Record' was not more widely read among our Catholics," by saving of the Editor's own parish: "Yes, just imagine only a miserabl hundred subscribers in Woewon e g, where the cream of Catholicity, one might say, is residing. Somehow I could not concentrate my imagination on Woewong—it was all with me baked potato —but I did assure young Mr. Dash that, as one Catholic in a million, I was doing my duty by "The Record." We take six every week, I assured him, and a special messenger always calls in and collects them for our family, I- said, so opening his blue eyes a little bit wider, and with an apology for worrying such a good practical member of the Church, he stood up and took his departure. I returned to my potato with a relish not only for it. but for my little "Corner " as well. For if the subscribers to our Catholic Weekly are few, they must: at least be a generous-hearted lot; but why, or why, before sending that young commissisn agent out on his job, did not my Editor instruct him to quote the usefulness of reading "Aunt Bessy's Page?" I would have ordered an extra copy on the spot and paid for it in advance, but that's just where Mr. Dash lost his opportunity—he never even mentioned my name! --Special to "Parishioner of Queen's Park."

Each one will think of ways and means, but let us remind ourselves that the month of the Holy Souls is quickly passing. HOLINESS. The world to-day is discontented, and sick at heart of shams and insincerity. Never have sincere and holy Catholics been more needed. The world is testing the Catholics to-day with Christ's very own criterion: "By their faults you shall know them." Christ, indeed, is our model; on Him must our eyes be ever rivetted; to Him must all our love he directed; for Him must we live and die. but all this means holiness, and what, we mayask. is the meaning of holiness? The Gospel contains the answer to our question. Seated at the Last Supper with His Apostles, Christ said to them: "I am the true vine and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in Me that beareth not fruit, he will take away: and every one that beareth fruit, he will purge it, that it may bring forth more fruit. . . • Abide in Me, and I in yon. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine, so neither ran von, unless you abide in Me. I am the Vine; von the branches: he that abideth in me. anrl T ir him. the

Father Amourdrou. OP.. administrator of the Dominican church in Leningrad. was a terrible blow to his parishioners and filled their hearts with great anxiety as to the fate of the Catholic churches in that town, in the defence of which this zealous priest had fought with undaunted energy. in Ukraine the Church is still more violently persecuted. The Bolshevik authorties fix immense taxes on the churches, and where the payment of such large sums is shown to he impossible.
the churches are closed and changed into granaries or cinemas. For such a reason the local powers closed the churches of Polonne, Berzada and Obodowka. and of late they announced the confiscation of those at Zitomir and Winitza. Most severely persecuted, however, are the priests themselves. After the arrest of several of them, among whom are Father Szenfeld of K iel, the administrator of the Catholic church in Ukraine. Father .Iuchniewicz, and now Father Szczepaniuk. the situation of the Church in Ukraine is simply tragic.
