Protestant churches are clubs for good people, but the Catholic Church continues to welcome the publicans and sinners with whom Christ mixed so freely.

An American Protestant after inveighing against Mexican Catholics added thoughtfully, "Of course, mind you,-Mexican halfcasts and Indians would have been infinitely less manageable if they hadn't been at least halfcivilised by the Catholic Church." And perhaps the Neopolitan brigand who disedifies Protestants less by brigandage than by continuing to say prayers to Our Lady is no worse a man because he still retains a saving faith in a power which stands for righteousness. In the course of nineteen centuries the Church has discovered that sinners sometimes sin, and is therefore not so scandalised as her critics by the frailties of her Like her master she children. comes to call not the righteous but sinners to repentance. and like she her master continues to give scandal by her uncomprising hosti1ity to fashionable sins and by to unfashionher charity infinite Church the of The reputation able sinners. suffers, perhaps. from the fact Mr. Lunn is the son of Sir that an .American gangster or a S.

:1 LABELS THAT MISLEAD It is a constant handicap for Catholics in discussion that the main headings of history have been established in an anti-Catholic tradition. The terms Dark and Middle Ages, Renaissance, Reformation. Counter-Reformation, the Enlightenment, even the Industrial Revolution, these period headings fit naturally into a pictt.re of the past that is part of the liberal and un-Catholic air we breathe The Reformation is the most aggressive of such terms, for it is made to suggest that the wholesale repudiation of certain essential Catholic doctrines in the sixteenth century was a simple moral process, and that the Catholic Reform was an answer to the Protestant Reform. The historical truth is that, in t he face of a growing worldliness both inside and outside the Church. there was a strong feelSome of the ing for reform. early heretics were filled with this feeling. but the first heretical generation was primarily concerned with the repudiation of reliziotts authority.

By Douglas It bodruff spiritual. The English are a profoundly religious people, to a point of mysticism, and the growth of the sects, from the end of Elizabeth's reign onwards, was the assertion of religion by people now deprived of their old f aith, mainly in the interests of the new Stare and seeking pathetically to recover a spiritual order for themselves. What is called the Counter-Reformation was the slow fruition of a demand for reform in the Church to which, since the beginning of the sixteenth century, more and more men of the caliber of Colet and More had been joining their voices. There were appalling delays in summoning a general Council. and when it did meet at Trent in 1545. much irreparable damage in Germany and England had already been But the rise of German done. Protestantism, although it influenced the shape of the Council's deliberations, was not the cause of the Council any more than St. Ignatius founded the Society the Jesus at the same

Dark Ages suffered from the bloody domination of violent men, and in particular from the horrors of 'the Northmen who wized out in the ninth century so much of the civilisation that they found. No one who reads in the pages of Bede the story of the converted English, making of seventh century England an island of Saints, can feel that the adjective "Dark" is anything hut the rhetoric of irreligious scholars. The centuries between the fifth and the eleventh were not dubbed Dark because we lack information about them, but because of their beliefs. It was the uncritical hagiolog-y, the sustained cultivation of moods of devotion which were unintelligible and repellant to the seventeenth and still more to the eighteenth centuries. which fixed the adjective. It is a questionbegging one, that assumes the falsity of the reasoning of Alcuin, and Charlemagne aud Alfred, that learning and literature are nothing in themselves save as they- help men to know the only- matters that are their real concern. If an age or a man is properly to be called Dark, it must be when he is norant of the end for which ht was made, and the scholars who made an idol of scholarship are the dilettantes and virtuosos of every age whose minds lack real illumination.

The England of Elizabeth prepared the Puritans, for it was an England n which the abbeys and ehantries and shrines had all been swept away, and the holy days with them, and the later characteristic features of English Protestantism. which we owe t n the seventeenth century. while T hey can be discerned in embvro, 1-.ad not vet come to birth• Now the word Reformation obscures the historical fact that a zeneral loosening of religious s tandards preceded the tightenup which came as a counter--.1ovement.

"Sign of the Times": In your last issue you denied that the end of the world is at hand. 1.-1J‘y then do you explain the "Wh.nesses of Jehovah?" Reply: The "Witnesses of J ehovah" merely constitute a form of that sect known as the Russellites.- They have no evidence whatever that Jehovah ever asked them to be His witnesses. The Russellites were named after Pastor Charles T. Russell. an American, who started a new form of Protestantism. Their religion is based upon the conjecture that Christ's second coining is imminent, but their grounds for such a guess is illfounded. They pay little or no attention to the obvious thit4;s in Scripture, but concentrate upon one .point in particular, which Christ purposely left obscure, saying, -It is not given tr man to know these things." Fur myself. I do not deny that the end is imminent. but merely its immediate probability, a nd Christ Himself has denied all certainty as to the actual Ivo ment, "Of that day or hour no man knoweth, ntither the ainlels in heaven, nor the Son. but the Father."

But normally She insists upon retaining the law. and all Catholics are obliged nobserve it. The Church speaks with the authority of God, and it is God who forbids cremation through His Church. Any Catholic who would violate the will of the Church in this would be violating the will of God.

The Relapse of "Red" Ryan O

NEWSPAPER SENSATIONALISM THAT HAS A MORAL

UR evening contemporary whetted its appetite for sensational "copy" on Saturday night when it splashed the fate of the Canadian gangster, Norman CRed") Ryan over three columns. From a childhood background of crime, Ryan developed naturally into a holdup bandit, and eventually into a "killer." While serving a life s entenLe he organised a prison riot. and in the subsequent enquiry so impressed officialdom ( inclu(ling the ex-Premier of Canada. Mr. R- 11. Bennett) that he was released on parole, and to all outtvard appearances became "reformed" and a respectable citizen. • Now, however, when policemen shoot two bandits, and one is discovered to be Ryan. the world is profoundly shocked at his double life, and the newspapers dub him "Dr. Jekyll." It struck inc. as I read the report. that under the skin the AN4,r1d has but little tolerance and that it scarcely understands vice anv better than virtue. I could not help contrasting the world's outraged magnanimity at the sight of a reformed criminal's relapsing against the Church's incredulous little gasp that the ret, ,rtned habitual criminal should "stay put." The world it seems must be int,llerant of relapse, because it is ignorant of the true nature of reformation. This case ' ''''• strated in a flash how it is

Two Views of Character Reformation (By Video.) that the world cannot understand the Catholic confessional. The Church, by its usc, and Christ by its institution, clearly showed that :hey recognised they were dealing with a creature who was capable of constant relapses. The Church never s upposed that a sin confessed. repented, and hence forgiven, was finished with, once for all. Never did the Church refuse to forgive t he repeated sin unless indeed there has been no sort of effort at renunciation. For the Church has always remembered how the Master had said that even the just would fall seven times daily. What the Church does require is an honest purpose to try and do better. This. combined with sorrow, is sufficient for forgiveness. But always. at the back of Her head. the Church knows that man's will is a puny and fickle thing. likely to fail especially when it so easily forgets the need of having the grace of nod co-operating with it. Briefly, then, there are two leWS of reformation which may even have psychological reaitions hrough history. Sonic nonCatholics still believe that the R eformation was a complete and irref ragalde break with som e-

thing that NVD.z, wrong and hateAnd this, too, is their view ful. o f what character reformation should be. A stern and final renunciation of what is wrong. So far as it goes. this view is ideal, but it is not human and scarcely_ In such a view there possible. is no room for relapse, vet "erThe fact rare est humanurn." That of original sin remains. probably explains. too. how respectability has become one of the great Protestant virtues. By the st:trk irony of reality, the Catholic Church, which is often enough regarded as inhumanly hard, in this instance is She has not divinely tender. confused the sin with the sinner. The former She loathes as Her Founder did. to the latter. She stoops with infinite patience and pity to lift again and yet again. This is the recurring mistake in humanitarian philosophy and Their charity is not practice. deep enough to forgive relapse. their horizon is not wide enough t o comprehend it. They are not catholic enough ( in two senses) in their view of humanity. Hence their calculations so often go The hold-up bandit is astray.

set up as motor-car salesman They earning £100 a month. are puzzled that he cannot live -straight.- Here again their puzzlement arises out of ignorance of the nature Of sin. Vice, like virtue. is not something external to man which may be donned or doffed with the facility of a silk kimono. A sin is something you become, it changes your personality. A state of habitual sin is something you are rather than something you are in. In any case, it is not something you have. To expect this immediate and miraculous transformation is not reasonable. So it is that the Church lays such stress on Christian education as the fundamental factor in character formation. While the child's heart and mind are plastic, they must be set in a Christian mould. Even should there be mistakes in later years. the mind and will are seldom so impaired that they forget where to turn for release and healing. No Catholic has any reason to be discouraged on account of Moral failures. for the Church exists. for the most part. for the morally weak rather than the morally s tront.f. as Mr. Lunn points out so well on Page 7. Well, the newspapers are sensational, but their excitement may cover a. moral which would comfort the world, if the world were not so busy over other things.

PERTH, SATURDAY, JUNE 6, 1936.

The S_Aliceessor of Caesar The C:itholic Press of Australia would have been well content to have treated the centenary of Bishop Broughton with the charity of silence. But the Anglican Bishop of Wangaratta, at the church cf ingress in connection with the centenary. %vent out of his way to fling the gauntlet of insult in the face of the Catholic community. "The Pope," declared his Lordship, "is the successor of the Caesars. not of St. Peter." From the context of the Bishop's remarks this seems to imply that the Pope is merely a . political power and with such mystic-al powers of despotism that his subjects pay hint abject and cowering obedience. If that is what his Lordship meant, it oit)uld be a serious understatement to call it an unfortunate remark. It is a malicious and unashamed lie. Its only redeeming feature is the accidental inference that St. But as this admission was quite inadPeter was the first Pope. vertent, it does not call for plaudits. • If Bishop Hart were even superficially read in Church History. he ought to know that in no time since the Apostolic Age has the Papacy been so completely untrammelled by political pressure as in this our own century. This was attested in a striking manner by the signing of the Lateran Treaty a few years ago. when the Holy Father waived the temporal possessions to which he had a perfect right and retained only a diminutive territory sufficient to ensure his complete freedom and independence. In the modern crusade of Catholic Action, moreover, His Holiness has expressly disowned as Catholic those associations which owe specific political allegiance.

A Modern Prophet. W e notice that the Women's Pare of our secular cont.-.•niporaries is not infrequently employed as the medium of antiChristian propaganda of one form or another. In the "West Australian" of Tuesday appeared the account of an interview of a lady journalist with Mr. H. G. Wells on "Women of To-morrow." Mr. Wells made certain speculations on what the future held for the fair sex and to the Christian reader it sounded a very terrible prospect. As Mr. Belloc has amply indicated, Mr. Wells is a first-class novelist, but is not authoritative either as an historian or as a scientist. The very gifts which enhance his powers as a novelist prove a serious handicap in the more solid branches of learning. A fertile imagination is a positively- menacing factor to the truth of science or history. But Mr. Wells has gone further. He has assumed the role of seer. If one keeps in mind that his prophecies are of no more essential value than those of his uninspired fellow mortals, one may- survive their reading with no more hurt than injured feelings and a certain disgust that the seer really desires the fulfilment: of his sordid prophecies. What is truly exasperating about this particular report is the gullibility of the reporter and that species of piscine admiration which is usually lavished on dubious prophecies and denied to irrefutable revelations. When Mr. Wells visualised a domestic lift "robbed of cooking and housework." it should not be the signal for an effusion of fulsome adulation. The intelligent reporter would have pressed for a solution of the male-to-come's problem of hygienic housing and eating. When NIT-. Wells foresaw the women of the future with "a controlled number of children," he ouglit ti have been asked where the control came in. and whether it \N-ere a good thing that immorality should increase in inVerse ratio to the decrease oi national births. We are grateful that Mr. Wells conceded that marriage woulil remain monogamic. though he reached the right conclusion froic wrong reasons. Marriage to-day is monogamic because Chri-t restored it to its pristine strictness. It will remain monogamic b ecause Christianity will survive, and those who do not profess it will practice "free love"—that eumphemistic term which at. tempts to cover the morality of the rabbit hutch. The confusion in which Mr. Wells is enveloped is one of the origin of Christian women's status. Through the Mother of God o.-oman was raised from a chattel to an honourable place by the side of man to whom she is, by nature and divine intent, the complement. If Mr. Wells' brave new world for women conies timidly (as it should) int...!xnstence, we will relapse again a matriarchate, that orimitiv 'condition from which Mr. Wells asstre: Its in hi, "Outline tory" we originally evolved. .:4

Erroneous View of Church's Influence After all, we are very short sighted in estimating the influence of the Church. We judge by externals, and forget that our influence is usually greatest when we are most opposed. Chesterton puts this magisterially in "G.K.'s Weekly" for March 12: "The Church's influence may decline when the bishops are rolling in wealth and ruling like princes: when courts and palaces are full of pageantry of ritual like a pageantry of heraldry, when priests think themselves secure in alliance with the world: especially the official world. But the Church's influence does not decline when she has to meet more of poverty or persecution; it always begins to rise again in a towering might and majesty and magnetism. The influence of the Church had declined by the

time when a superb pontifical High Mass was perfomed before the Royal Family and all the nobles and the Estates, when that great aristocrat Talleyrand de Perigord went up to celebrate and whispered to a fellow-prelate, 'Don't make me laugh.' But by the time that an Archbishop of Paris was rabbled in the Paris streets, all wise men knew that the Church had risen from the dead." In the present industrial situation Catholics do not need to wait for a calamity before they can exert their influence. Our priests and Bishops, and a good part of our laity are apostolic men. A little courage and clinnsel taking will give us leadership' in the fearful perplexity that surrounds us.

New Norcia Football S.I.C. v, Piawanning. On Sunday last, a very thrilling match took place on the College Oval between the College and Piawanning. The match was even right throughout and was full of excitement right from the bell. The home team had the best of the play in the final term. and were too fast for their heavier opponents, but in spite of this they failed by six points to carry home the honOUTS. In the first term the pace was not very fast, and this gave Piawanning a A nice left-foot decided advantage. kick by M. Brennan raised the first major score of the match. This was quickly followed by another by C. Reay, who hail previously kicked two minors. Piawanning undoubtedly had the best of the term and gave College very little opportunity of scoring. First quarter scores: Piawanning. 2 goals 3 behinds; College, nil, From the bounce in the second quarter, College took charge and nice work by F. Clarke put H. Waugh in a posiHe made no mistake tion to score. and having tasted success the College Put all they knew into the game, with the result that before the quarter was finished they had raised both flags three times. Half-time scores: Piawanning, 4 goals 4 behinds: College, 4 goals. During the third term College again lost control of the game a little, and nice work by T. Brennan at centre again raised the flags for Piawanning. The College replied with a like score. which goaded the visitors to attack the College goal with increasing vigour. The efforts were rewarded, for just before the bell they scored two majors in quick succession. Thirsil-quarter scores: Piawanning, 7 goals 7 behinds: College, 5 goals 2 behinds. In the final term College made the pace fast and completely outpaced their heavier opponents. A feature of this quarter was the high marking of T. Carmody, the College goal-sneak. who 'scored three goals during the term. l . Smith saved Piawanning in this term, for by his high marking and long clearing kicks he dominated the whole hack line.

The teams were the same as last week's, and Brand again won by a large margin, The day was very windy, and there was a -little rain towards the end, despite which the scores were fairly good.

Pentecost at New Norm The Feast of Pentecost was celebrated with all due solemnity at New Norcia. During the vigil all the ceremonies prescribed by the Liturgy—the chanting of the prophecies, the blessing of the baptismal font and High Mass—were carried out in detail. On the feast itself the Prior, Rev. Father Wilfrid, was celebrant at High Mass, with Rev. Fathers Alcalde and Maurus as deacon and sub-deacon, respectively. Twelve boys from the Native Orphanage combined with the Monastery choir in rendering the "Missa Puntificalis," by Perosi. All who Were privileged to attend were unanimous in their praise of the excellent manner in which the boys rendered their part. The members of the Benedictine Community, who were responsible for their training, and particularly Rev. Father Eladius, are t . be heartily congratulated. It is indeed a noteworthy achievement that these native boys have been taught to sing the praises of God so fervently and well, "It was very plucky of you, madam," said the magistrate. "to set upon the burglar and capture him, but need you have blacked both his eyes and knocked all his teeth out" The woman looked indignant. "How was I to know it was a burglar " she asked. "I'd been waiting up for my husband for three hours, and in the dark I thought it was him."

ST. JOSEPH'S CONVENT BALL.

Ilad my first communication to "The Record" been written five months ago. it would have been in a vein of cheerful optimism. After watching the hard work of our small band of workers chits ing the period intervening I can only write as one of a hand of dogged pes• simists. I do not think many parishes have been handicapped to the extelit that ours has at the outset of their career. The site suits about 10 per cent. of the parishioners, and that is an inflated estimate. We have only one -Mass on Sundays, which means sparse congregations these wet Sundays. Thirty per cent. of our parishioners are nearer the old established church, and don't forget to inform our direct-giving collectors of that fact. A wet night and the long walk from the. tram is sufficient to cause a serious slump in the attendances at our card nights and dances. Despite the grouse, we are carrying on. Our dance and card nights are run at a profit by very careful handling, and with more wholehearted support from the parishioners we may yet be able to recover a long lost enthusiasm. Mass will be at 8 a.m. on Sun ' iii future, and we hope the additional half hour's grace will encourage better attendance. I miss quite a few well known parishioners from whom one should be able to eetiect assistance . We broke mr record for attendance at last Wednesday's carnival dance, over 100 attending, despite our unofficial handicap. the weather. We are hoping that the newcomers will attend every We inesdav in future• when we can promise as good fare as we served last week.

The fifth annual ball oi the exstudents of St. Joseph's Convent, Fremantle, will be held in the Fremantle Town Hall on Wednesday, June 24. This year it is hoped to eclipse all previous efforts, and an energetic committee is working to this end. His Grace Most Reverend Dr. Prendiville has kindly consented to receive the debutantes while other guests of honour will be the Mayor and Mayoress of Fremantle Miss Vera Stewart is preparing the debutantes for their presentation, and is also arranging exhibition dances. Miss Doreen D'Arcy's 1..4chestra will provide the music, and late transport will be available. In connection with the ball, a reunion of all ex-pupils will be held at the Convent on Saturday, June 13. when a special sports programme is being arranged in the Convent grounds. All ex-students in the metropolitan area, and others from the country who may be in town for that week-end- are urged to attend on that afternoon, if possible, to renew old friendships and to assist a worthy cause. The combined sports day and reunion of exscholars is an innovation this year, and every support should be given to it. The final effort before the ball will be a monster bridge and house party at the residence of Mrs. Yench, Osborne-road, East Fremantle. on Wednesday, June 17, and this date also should be kept free.

I am hopeful the wee laddie will prove his worth and make a century. but as my work has to be completed so early I cannot hazard even a guess as to whether he will beat "Love's Young Dream," though, indeed. his popularity has taken such a sudden turn for the better during the last ten days that it would not surprise me if he went over the £100next week I will be able to tell You Under this letter I that definitely. am acknowledging the butts received to May 30, and next week those that were received in time for the drawing will be duly acknowledged, so since we cannot triplicate or cut Sandy into several thousand odd pieces, I trust you will all rejoice with the lucky one who will be entitled to claim him as their own from Wednesday evening. There are a lot of suspicious minded people in this hard world. Yesterday I was accosted by "The Sleeping beauty," and thus she greeted me: " Well, A.B., you beat the divil and all, I notice you have the Litany of the Saints going now and you've left 1 out poor St. Joseph on purpose. s'pose that's a catch to draw someone to give you a Fiver in his honour." Perhaps because The Sleeping Beauty dreams as well as sleeps, she imagineand credits me with a whole lot motives I never think of, and I speak truthfully when I say that I myself was nearly bowled over when, on looking down the "Litany of the Blessed in Heaven" I noted the absence of his holy name. I was disturbed in spirit, if there is any saint in heaven for rn I have a loving regard it is the er-father 'of Our Blessed Lord. Therefore,I sent up a most humble and abject apology, and St. Joseph was princely and kind enough to accept it, f or this morning I answered a summons to the 'phone to hear the delicate voice of "Sister Sue" telling me she didn't like "St. Elizabeth of Hungary" and that she did love St. Joseph and she thought it was "simply awful" to have never even mentioned him, .so would I please put him in at once and .a Fiver opposite his name.

Saturday, June 6, 1936.

Father gives us an instruction n:on. before Benediction, and one night he told us how Our Lord would come like a thief in the night. and that we must always be ready and not have any black m arks on cur soul. We say the Rosary every night and Father explains each Mystery so that we will have something to think about. Miss Noonan plays the organ and Mary O'Sullivan comes up every day to help the Sisters with their work. Perhaps she is going to be a nun, as well as Alberta and Harry might be a priest. Father Giles says Mass and Father Cumtingham tells us the names of the vestments and what each one means. One day Father Cunningham went over one hundred miles gathering up the children to bring them in to the convent, and he had to go through some very rough tracks to get to the various places. We have had some concerts; the boys seem to like reciting, hut the girls fancy singing. On Saturday night we curled the little children's hair, and on Sunday morn. jog at Mass we sang the hymns as well as we could. Father got a few funny answers from some of the children. One night when he asked us did anyone know what a martyr was, one boy said: "Please. Father, something you ear!" Another question was. "Where was the Child Jesus while Mary and St Joseph were looking for Him?" and someone answered. "He fell oil the donkey and got lost." When Father went to say Mass at Easterbrook he t ,ok fifteen children with him, and all t he luggage was tied at the bark of the car- you should have seen the crush. We would love to see you at our next school. 'You would have some time for games between the instructions. and You would get plent:of apples—four times a day. Will you come? (Plentv of apples four times a flay Is that real dinky-die? If so I might!) We would love to thank all Your Cornerites for all the joy and privileges they have given us. and we would like You to tell them that we pray for them all.—Your loving nieces. EILEEN COLLINS AND NORAH KINGSTON, Dear Eileen and Norah.---Many thanks for your very thoughtful message to my Cornerites. and your own generous friends of the Corner. and I am sure all will feel repaid for the sacrifices they make on Your and the other Busbies' behalf when they have read your letter, which was the corn. T•letion to the charming article that ap p ared on the Maniimup School in last week's "Record." The little boy wit o said that a martyr was something t o be eaten was not so far out when one remembers how many of the early martyrs were eaten by the wild beasts, and I hope that as you grow in the knowledge of our holy Faith all of you will grow up brave enough to be real martyrs for God if He wanted that proof of love from You.

SIXTY-SECOND YEAR.

Carmel's First Year

431,428,000 CATHOLICS

Sunday next, the Feast of the Blessed Trinity, is the first anniversary of the enclosure of the Carmelite Sisters and incidentally the feast day of the Nedlands Carmel, which is dedicated to the Most Holy Trinity. In the short space that has intervened since their enclosure, the Com. munity has had a good share of difficulties, with sickness and molestation from hooligans. But beginnings of this type are regarded in the Catholic mind as .00{1 beginnings. "l7bi crux. ibi l•hristus." (The design belt iw. w hich is reproduced on the altar in the public chapel at the Monaster)', sets forth the mystery of the Blessed Trinity, and is therefore very appropriate to the feast day.) "The Record" voices the feelings of all •our Catholic people in wishing the Carmelite Sisters every grace and happiness in the coining year.
