Why the Kookaburra Laughs
.1n old-fashioned schoolmaster used a round snuff-box during the week, but for Sundays he had a very handsome square one. One day an inspector came in and asked she class: "What is the shape of the world?” There was no response. The schoolmaster took out his snuffbox and gently tapped it, hoping that its roundness would suggest the round world. At once an eager hand shot up. " Well," said the inspector. "Please, sir," said the boy, "round on week-days and square on Sundays."

The Popular Lady Competition which had been running ip Subiaco for the past nine weeks, was finalised on Friday night. The results were most gratifying —the sum of £198 15s 2 being realise4. The highest total was secured by Miss Sadie Holbery, who was responsible for raising £75 odd on behalf of the Children of Mary. Miss Eva Jones, representing the St. Vincent de Paul Society, was a very close second with 00, and Miss Dorothy Brown had almost £50 to her credit on 1,ehalf of the Sacred Heart Sodality. The ladies were congratulated by His Grace the Archbishop, who presented the prizes. A hearty vote of thanks to His Grace for distributing the prizes was proposed by Father '..Vinston and supported by Mr. Elgar O'Mahony and Mr. Frank Jones, and was carried with acclamation. The popular ladies Were the recipients of many conremarks for _ their most successful campaign. This Was all the more satisfactory, as the campaign was of such short duration, .and the parish had , already most generously responded to the organising of the prize Picket. The raffle of lottery ,tickets in 'aid of Miss Sadie Hoi,hery Was as follows: 1st., A. Bryant: 2nd.. M. Sande rson: 3rd.. PeggN.- Bolster.

To the Editor. Sir.—In reading- the reports of various societies, as published in vour columns from time' to time, the impression created in one's mind is that there exists a general insistent desire that the timehonoured combined procession and sports, as previously held on St. Patrick's -Day. he re-introduced in the coming year. True it is that one society, apparently with the strength of its purely Irish national constitution,_valiantly carried on by having a celebration of the day, which received good general support during those Vears when the usual Combined committee has failed to function in the customary manner. It would appear from the press reports of this body that it confidently hopes that the general indication that the big combined effort to celebrate St. Patrick's Day in the future will develop into a reality, as it has de:finitely, it would seem, left the d.ay free in the corning Year. reMicing in the strong likelihood of the realisation of .its ideal.

It is of one belonging to this latter class that we wish to Teak of one, who by his daring act of heroic self-sacrifice will over live in the minds of men as the "Apostle of Molokai." Father Damien. missionary priest, was born at the little town of Treatelov. Belgium, on t14 third of January. 1840. His father, a small farmer, sent him to a college at Braine-le-Comte. to prepare for a commercial profession: but, as the result of a mission 6ven by the Redemptorists in 1858, the young boy, Toseph. decided to give LT) his life to Gc;c1 as a religious. He accordingly entered the novitiate of the Fathers of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Mary. at Louvain, and took in religion the name of Damien. Three years after his religious profession, though still in minor orders, he was sent to the mision of the Hawaiian Islands. 1./lere 1 he arrived in March, 1864. In the followingMay he was ordained priest at Honolulu, and was later given cus districts on charge of varithe Island of .11awaii. Animated with a burning zeal for souls his strong constitution allowed 'hit; give full Play to the impulses of his heart. He Was not only the missionary of the natives, but doctor their andd d\e ,voted friend as well. With OWn hands he constructed several chapels both in Hawaii • and in Molokai iTlis latter is • Nere of his land was to be the future labour. Here had- brown 0. tip a leper settlement.

How grateful must have been the lepers to their benefactor we may gather from the words of the superintendent of the Board of Health to Bishop Maigret: "As long as the lepers can care for themselves," he writes, "they are comparatively comfortable; but as soon as the dreadful disease renders them helpless, it would seem that even demons t hemselves would pity their condition and hasten to their relief." To fully appreciate, if that be possible. the heroic sacrifice of this zealous priest, we must need recall the surroundings of what henceforth was to be for him, too, a living tomb. Hard would it he to discover a more desolate and depressing spot than "Molokai ahina," the grey, lofty and most desolate. All along its northern side there is a precipice into the sea of unusual depth. A range of cliff is from east to west the true end and frontier of the island. Life itself in the Lazarette was a tremendous ordeal from which the nerves of a man's spirit shrink. Yet, never did the zealous Priest shirk his work of love and mercy through the fear of infection. Who but God will ever know of the many self conquests he had to make in order to go so much against his nature? The pitiful yet repulsive sight of those living deaths, the gloom of his n&er changing surroundings with their atmosphere of pain, misery and dreadful death, often . tempted the young priest to leave it all behind him. The very air in which he breathed seemed filled with the loathsome . disease. and everywhere his eyes would meet those human wrecks.
fifteenth year in the service of the lepers. Certain utterances concerning his morality called forth Robert Louis Stevenson's well-known philippic against the Rev. Dr. Hyde, wherein the memory of the Apostle of the Lepers is brilliantly vindicated. And so lived and died one of the world's veatest heroes. Guiding and directng his life was the great motive of Christian charity. Father Damien was one of the few who understand the words of their Divine Teacher, Christ. as He wanted them to be understood. "Do to others as you would have them do to you," was the command of Christ. The zealous Priest placed himself in the position of the lepers of Molokai. They were his brothers, and knowing the mind of Christ, the Young missionary gave his all that he might "do to others as he himself would have them do, to him," were he in their pitirtY1 position. Faithfully, but not without many a hard struggle. was his continual sacrifice consummated. During his lifetime his only desire was to reman unknown to the world, but now he is one of the world's heroes. If it cannot tread with him the lofty heights- of self-sacrifice and lov-
firyant and Waters
alty to duty, the world can at least sound his praises and cause his name to live down the centuries. With a feeling of love and deep reverence do we recall his life lived for others and offer our own little tribute to that unselfish life. , Telephone B4757.

Practicalism versus Criticism The Pen is Mightier than the
1.-;)- "jay Dee.") The time ,has arisen when it has again become necessary to renew the call of loyalty to our press—the Catholic press—tor the moment was never more urgent for a vehicle for the dissemination of news and facts which are in conformity with the right principles which should guide that unit of God's creation which iii His wisdom He endowed with reason and immortality. Locally, our "Record" supplies the need whereby an organised united front may be shown to all those fashionable, but insidious, "cults" or practices which Perchance appeal to the animal instinct in us. but on tilt mghtful consideration, will be found to be but empty passing shows—in fact just a steeplechase towards the destruction of our human happiness—seeking the kernel and just finding the husk. And what then, Christian? Ask yourself the question. "Am I my brother's keeper?" The doing of good jut as incumbent upon you as the
avoidance of evil. . If you fail in your attitude to your Catholic paper. let your failure be in destructive criticism of it. Remember its news value
can. and will, be improved in just proportion to the practical suPport which you. personally, reader, give it.
Now to return to the quotation
at the head of this feeble, but sincere. scribble by just a very ordinary lay person. who since his
early years has endeavoured to accord some measure of support to this—his and your—paper. The apparent interest which has been evinced by the supply
of news items, under the heading of "Parish .Tottings" and "Our Societies," will without doubt stimulate a wider and more sympathetic interest in each week's issue if such items are sustained. While the writer is not conversant with the method by which these news items are supplied, he would particularly direct the attention of writer., generally that at times the pen can be a mighty source of concern to the Editor It may be that valuable space has been assigned for the anticipated supply of copy from a particular district or organisation. and there has been either a failure to supply or the copy includes quite an amount of matter which by its very essence. is of no news value. For instance. "Mr. XYZ received his weekly pay on Tuesday, "Sick pay was passed for. etc." It would most likely be good new copy if a correspondent were to note that Mr. So-and-So was promoted or advanced in his trade or profession to a higher and more responsible position, or in the case of a friendly society, to give the total amount of sick Pay paid by the whole or one or more of its branches over a given period, to serve as an indication
of its solidity or to direct attention to the advisability of joining a benefit society as a provision against possible sickness and ultimate death. Again. contributors. "The Record" has.

"When I came to Russia years this eye-witness states, "the go," a ,churches were still rather well off. Of course, church buildings had been destroyed and priests arrested. but not to such an extent as to-day. Systematic persecution to its full extent set in only in 1927 with the anti-religious manifestoes against Church holidays. Then followed an order prohibiting the ringing of bells, expropriation, destruction of churches and banishment of and capital punishment for priests. Most of Churches Destroytd. "Two-thirds of the former churches have either been destroyed or closed. Of 657 churches in Moscow hardly 100 are left. In large towns like Nishni-Novigorod, Kasan, Swerdlowsk and Kiev, in each of which there were 12 to 15 churches. there is only one church, generally i4 the outskirts in a cemetery. In some regions, such as Siberia, Turkestan and Caucasia, no churches at all have been left. "Kiev was noted for its historic churches. Now divine services take place in a single church. The most beautiful houses of God, dating from the 11th. and 12th. centuries, such as St. Andrew's, have been destroyed. The Church of St. Sophia, a structure of the 11th. centur IS now in the possession of a ski club. The famous Petchery Convent, once the centre of Christianity in Russia, is now the anti-religious museum. In the Church Of St. Vladimir, built in memory of the first baptised Russian ruler, a club of young Communists has its Seat. "Similar conditions prevail in Other towns," states the author. :g Hopeless is the fate of the viiare Church. The crosses have been pulled down, the windows • brOcen, the imaves of saints 'orn and soiled. The sight offered by one church in Moscow 1 shall never forget.

oishevist regime enough I was able to observe what that will means. During the existence of the so-called Five-Year-Plan there was a constant shortage of bricks. So they started to pull down the churches. That was called the production of bricks under Lenin's system. But what about the will of the people? The Communists called meetings of labourers and officials Proposing to them the use of churcl.cs for socialistic reconstruction. 'Who raises any objection?' the chairman asked, and usually no one replied, knowing too well that that would mean 10 years, of hard labour. Then it was reported in the papers that labourers and officials had unanimously voted for 'using the church for socialistic reconstruction.' Or the local G.P.U. summoned the priest of the place and told him that in their opinion the population needed no church. 'They do,' the priest would reply. 'many people attend the service.' 'Then bring a Petition of the population that the church is wanted by them,' he would be told. Of course, no one dared to sign such a petition, knowing that hard labour would be in store for him. Then the G.P.U. would declare that the people had renounced the church and it would be pulled down. "Much valuable church plate and precious antique, pictures were ruthlessly destroyed. Too late the Bolshevists discovered how much money could have been made by selling these rare objects to foreign countries. A special object of destruction were the archives. Once I bought some fish which was wrapped in documents dating from the 16th. and 17th. centuries. "Sundays have been ,declared working days. Christian holidays have been abolished, and even electric lights in churches are f orbidden. To go to church is a dangerjus undertaking, for it may mean removal from one's w orking place and even worse. Church marriage constitutes a s erious infringement of the laws of revolution, the baptising of children an even more serious one. Religious instruction is orohibited, and most of the Soviet children never heard anything of Christ."--(NC.) FIRST CATHOLIC ACTION C ONGRESS IN CHINA HUGE SUCCESS.

Christian Brothers' College Fremantle
Old Boys' Cricket Club. The C.B.C. Old Boys have again entered a team in the Fremantle and Districts Mercantile Association. The strenCricket thening of our club by the inclusion of several new players has given us good reason to look forvvard with confidence to a successful season, while the keenness and enthusiasm exhibited by our members augurs well for the future. Parodoxical though it may seem, the action of the C.Y.M.S. in entering a team in the same by no Association has been means detrimental to us. If it has done nothing else, it has certainly made us sit up and take notice. In the past we have been rather lax in looking out for new players, but the inclusion of another team drawing recruits from practically the same sources, has brought home to us that we must keep a sharp look-out for new players. Further, the spirit of friendly rivalry existing ‘etween these clubs has urgea our members to greater efforts, for we are unwilling to suffer the indignity of running second to our infant rivals. The first meeting of ,..,Nese clubs showed that this was no idle resolve for the match resulted in victory for the Old Boys. However, we are inked pleased to have the opportunity of congratulating C.Y.M.S. on their well-merited victory over East Fremantle, . last season's premiers. and earnestly desire that it will . 1)e but the forerunner of many more successes. Last Saturday we registered our third win of the season, whei. we met and defeated Workers' Club by an innings and 80 runs. W orkers batted first, but due to a fine effort by our bowlers. Grady, Naylor, and McMorrow, were dismissed for . 27 runs. Workers' attack proved innocuous to our batsmen, who quickly compiled 134 runs for 3 wickets, declared. J. Grady (44) gave a rare exhibition of aggressive batting, by scoring 40 off one over. Others to do well with the bat were Mick Brown, 26 not out; J. Dolan, 16 not out; Naylor, 18; and Harrison, 18. In their second innings. Workers w ere again dismissed for 27, giving us a three-point victory. This match once again showed that .‘1;.e have a articularly well-, balanced side.

this The popularity which beautiful and yet simple Mass is gaining from day to day is most gratifying and encouraging. In a comparatively short time it has made its way into the repertoires of Church choirs throughout AusAs-is tralia and New Zealand. always the case with Dom Moreno's music, the more it is heard the better it is appreciated and enjoyed . But nowhere has "Missa Duodecima" met with greater acceptSt. ance than in Melbourne. Patrick's .Cathedral, as well as many of the suburban churches, have again and again echoed with the beautiful and catching melodies of this most religious Not to go far composition. hack, we shall only mention that this Mass supplied the special music for High Mass at the Cathedral on the Feast of Christ the King in October last. Following this bit of news, a short c omment in "The Tribune": "The music of this Mass is simple hut effective, and in parts closely resembles the Gregorian But, though simplicity Chant. is, no doubt, one of the main characteristics of this Mass, it is nevertheless a suitable composition for big occasions. A proof of this is at hand in the fact that a choir of some 500 voices gave a most impressive rendering of it at St. Patrick's Cathedral on the occasion of Melbourne's Combined Choirs' General Communion on 24th. ult. The day cannot be far off when this Mass will be a favourite with all Church choirs in Australia, particularly with those labouring under .the disadvantage of small or unstable numbers. Written for three mixed voices (soprano, contralto, and baritone), it comes to the rescue of Church choirs where the rendering of Masses for four mixed v oices is very difficult, if not impossible, owing to scarcity of male voices. As a matter of fact, Dom Moreno composed this lass in response to numerous r equests from choir -masters, who often met with the above-mentioned difficulty. This explains why in this Mass, instead of the c ustomary tenor and bass voices. Dom Moreno has used only the baritone. but with a range which is quite within the reach of both tenor and bass. This deviation from the trodden course demanded an extraordinary effort on the part of the Rev. composer. But Dom Moreno was equal to the occasion, and the result of his effort has b een rightly pronounced a remarkable success.

JOTTINGS ing the new building, the Archbishop, ‘vho was introduced by Rev. Father Gilroy, of Albany, said that he had pleasant recollections of his canonical visit to Mount Barker twelve months On that occasion he had ago. appealed for the early c.impledon of the church, and he was grateful for the prompt response to that appeal. The church was an ornament to the town of Mount Barker and a monument to the generosity of the people, said His Grace. It was a temple of their faith, into which political and other discussions would not enter. Its object was to strengthen their faith, which was better than riches. In later years they would be able to tell their children and grandchildren that the bricks in the building were erected as a thansgiving to God and a realisation of their desire to hand down the faith of Patrick and Augustine to succeeding generatons. His Grace congratulated Father Gilroy awl the building committee and thanked the people who had made great sacrifices in order that the church might be opened unencumbered :t financial burden.

Communism and the Cloth
I
The attempted refutation in Wednesday's "West Australitn" of the Archbishop's recent denunciation of Communism, from the pen of the Rev. Iona Williams, bore the humorous caption of "The The reverend gentleman opened his attack Christian Position." in a similiarly humorous vein by declaring that Communism was the "rival." indeed the greatest and most serious rival, which Christianity had had to face in modern times. We say this is, humourous, because if it is not so meant, it is simply stupid. Two men may contend for a similar objective and rightly he called rivals. But if they seek two completely different objectives they are not This is the position between the merely rivals but opponents. Christianity. Marx never contemplated forces of Marxism and anything subconsciously Christian about his economic philosophy. Indeed he did not believe Christianity had an essence which could survive its outward forms. Religion to him was no more than a soporific for the proletariat. Yet Mr. Williams, by some subtle intuition, discovers in the gross materialistic negations of Communism something of "spiritual truth" which the "Church" has inadequately expressed. • • • Passing over his preposterous claim that Communism is a religion and his definition of religion which would appear to submit some strange and barbaric gods for the adoration of men. Mr. Williams next proceeded to postulate a well-defined demarcation between Communism and Bolshevism. This is where his championship of Communism breaks down most pitifully, for the Russian experiment goes only to prove that the Communistic ideal. so far from growing classless, has degenerated into a strong centralHis Grace the Archbishop specified quite ised dictatorship. clearly that he referred to Russia, but in any case his remarks could apply with equal truth to Australia or any other country. for Communism throughout the world is affiliated with Moscow as the mother of all "comrades." and delegates from Australia recently attended the Soviet International. There is no quarrel over the That capitalists infact that Communism preaches class-war. augurated the struggle is irrelevant, and moreover a very st,perficial analysis. The Rev. Mr. Williams is edified by the thought that Communism is working towards the ultimate goal of abolishApparently the means (which in ing class and class-warfare. theory and practice alike resolve into annihilation. confiscation. injustice. and the complete dehumanisation of men) justify the end. Meanwhile Mr. Williams is undismayed that the class-struggle strikes at the very root of the Christian life, which js fraternal charity and justice. • This ideal of a classless society, a unit with one interest, and motive, that so enthralls Mr. Williams, is at least consistent with his other anti-Christian views and particularly with his denial of original sin. The most obvious flaw in the whole Communist programme is that it treats of men as if they were automata. There is no calculation of the human element, of passion and caprice and instability. If men could be dehumanised Communism would forthwith prevail. Communism has also broken down badly over its interpretation of history. its evasion of the reality of the spiritual forces in history which lend it significance and order. It has not realised that man from his earliest records had needed hieratic government. In the nature of things men are not equal in any aspect. Some will lead and the majority be led. So it has proved in Russia. though the Communists claim that the dictatorship Supposing even of the proletariat is only a temporary phase. that man could he so "socialised" that he would devote all his energy to working for society and become eventually unable to conceive of any other economic organism. would it be a human order, or could men indeed rise, or sink, to such a level? Over the matter of private property. Mr. \\Tillianis becomes confused to an extent which it is difficult to unravel. He might he invited briefly to read the works of Marx. Engels. and Lenin. Also he might elaborate in what way a man's ownership of his own home gives him any power, let alone absolute power. over the lives of others. Man has intrinsic personal rights derived indirectly from God through nature. These cannot be alienated from him by the State. which did not confer them. Mr. Williams. at length. feels compelled to a monstrous choice between the Church

Mr. Williams also took occasion to in the name 0f make a fatuouc' parallel between the Archbishop's advocacy of censorship and Sos viet tyranny. This arises from an inability to liberty from license. When a man is free to do whatdistinguish he license; liberty is that state where a man is free to likes, that is ought to do. Mr. Williams' abhorrence of Soviet do what he violence is un..:enviricing. To champion Communism is to accept its essential doctrine of class-hatred, of which the inevitable and logical outccme is violence. Earlier in his argument, Mr. made a preptscterous choice in favour .of the "religion" Williams of Communism. W1-.at has become, at length. of the stalwart old Protestant slogan that one religion is as good as another? • • * * As a passing shot. Mr. Wiliattis enunciated some brotherly sentiments which are supposed to he the broad and root doctrines f.f .7ommunism. They are. he states, essentially Christian. He world. fain have us believe am, Communism has succeeded while the "Christian Church" has faltered. This is a very doubtful tribute t:: the Rev. Williams' Christianity. In actual fact, Communism is a cult of hate, relying on an internice class-warfare to attain a materially impossible connterpart of heaven on earth. The critic's final words, however, arc especially uninformed and unf.tinski-1. "On these matter; :( .- ial refortri) there was no Christian coctrine or programme."

It is mere subterfuge to he talking about the -Ceristiati Church" in relation to social reform. when the one and only early reformer was the Catholic Church. In fine, the Rev. Arr. Williams' sermon, if correctly reported, is the best argument w hich might be availed of in the topical discussions relative to the e xclusion of clergymen from spheres, both political and otherwise, a f-,r.tit which they know nothing!
Omissions of a Bible Student The Rev, Iona Wiiiiants in ills recently concluded series oi Scripture questions in the evening Press, provided a glaring M. stance of the blind leading the biind. and a painful illustration of the process of piling Ussa upon Pelion. As a correspondent in the Press noted. it did not appreciably help Christians to understand the Bible if the teacher with one breath despised it as a pack oi myths and fables, and in the next sought to elucidate the mythology- for the practical guidance of human souls. Incidentally, but none the less effectually, Mr. Williams' methods of exegesis de' monstrate the futility of including Scripture a8 a subject for examination on the school curricult.m., It would indeed tax the ingenuity of the examiners to set a paper from which no controversial issue would arise, seeing the variety and peculiarity of views existing among the non-Catholic sects. • • • * treatment There is also a certain naivete about Mr. Williams' of the New Testament.

THE RECORD.
St. Joachim's Parish The opening of the new School; C hurch (Our Lady Help of Christians) at Victoria Park East, on Sunda , December 8, has necessitated some alteration in Mass hours at St. Joachim's Church on Sundays. After due c onsideration, the Very Rev. Dean Brennan has announced that Masses on Sundays at St. Joachim's Church will be at 7.30 a.m. and 9.30 a.m. These hours should prove entirely satisfactory. They certainly give reasonable opportunity to families, where it is mostly necessary to divide up in the attendance of Sunday Mass, to observe the de sired objective of parishioners attending Mass in their own parish c hurch. Novelty Gift Distribution To-morrow (Sunday) evening, after evening devotions, the sealed cards, bearing names of those who have been awarded one or o ther of the 45 novelty cash gifts, will be opened in the Schoolroom. Subscribers are requested to attend. and in any case to complete promised donation of 11 to building fund immediately. This is imperative before any subscriber could he considered in the allocation of gifts. Results of gift distribution will. in conformity with the usual procedure of the committee, be advertised in next week's "Record."
