SPAIN'S LI-4:GACY IN STONE CHURCHES OF THE PHILIPPINES
HILE Spain itself is in turmoil, its legacy to the new world of the Faith and of splendid temples remains and increases. The churches of the Philippines will be one of the outstanding features of Manila's international Congress from February 3-1 1937. Churches—tall, imposing, with majestic grandeur! Churches— small and simple, large and ornate; churches still standing as they have stood for centuries, the scenes of colourful ceremonies for the devoted faithful : churches. moss-grown and dilapidated. "hare ruined choirs where late the sweet birds sang." recalling old days of glory; churches rich with the treasures of the centuries in architecture, history, and art, eloquent witnesses of the wonderful work of missionaries who long since have died in t he scenes of their toil; churches scattered all over the Philippine Archipelago—Spain's legacy in s tone to the Filipinos. Where the Spanish sword went, there also went the Cross of Christ, and as the colours of Philip were being hoisted over conquered lands. loving hands were piling stone upon stone, building the churches of the Philippines. Hand in hand, soldier and missionary went about, the one conquering for country. the other for God. It is no wonder. then, that there are so many churches in the Philippines; the Congress pilgrim will not fail to notice the abundance of these "houses of God." especially in Manila, which is. indeed, so rich with old churches ,that it has been described as a quaint. old mediaeval town in a modern setting. Since most of these are in Intramuros (old walled city). the Congress pilgrim will not find it hard to visit them. Cathedral of Manila. A t the creation of the Manila Archdiocese in 1581, the largest church in the city was designated cathedral, and this was dedicated on December 21 of the same year. The present cathedral. which dates back from 187079. is the 111th building to rise from the site, the first four haying been destroyed by earthquakes and typhoons. which visited Manila periodically. It was blessed by Archbishop Pedro Pavo . with fitting pomp and ceremonies, which lasted through t wo days. December 7-8. 1879. Archbishop Harty restored it to its present rich and harmonious condition in 1915. The dome of the Cathedral is the first and last thing the traveller sees at sea the centre of the cross on the dome is the reference point of all astronomical long-itucks of the Archipelago. Of composite architecture, with a dash of Byzantine. the Cathedral s tands on a high elevation of s tone: steps lead to a spacious court-yard. and the whole ensemble produces an imposing effect. Within the church is welllic.,,hted, airy. and lofty. In one o f the chapels along the sides, the remains of Mgr. Guidi. NunJo in the early years of American occupation, lie buried. The nave of the church is majestic in
proportion; its clustered pillars have gilded capitals. The cupola rises to an immense height and has an inside balcony. The dome bears a fresco of the four E vangelists. Massive native v estment chests feature the sacristy. The side walls are flanked with wardrobes and reliquaries. Here, also, are choir books of enormous dimensions_ xvhqse antiquity and long period of tinuse is testified to by their ‘vormeaten bindings. In this church most of the more important religious ceremonies of the XXXII'. International Eucharistic Congress will be held. In times past, it has w itnessed such ceremonies as the Requiem Mass for Pope Pius X.. the Te Deum for the safe arrival of the Spanish aviators, who first flew from Spain to Manila: and the Te Deum and Mass for the new Philippine Commonwealth.
In a city otten isited by ‘.1estructive earthquakes during those times, this church has withstood the earthquakes of 1045, 1754, 1852, 1863, and 1880, while all the others were toppling down in thunderous crashes. But, t hough fortunate with the attacks of nature, it has not been so with those of men. This church and its graves were profaned during the British occupation of Manila in 1762.
The first synod of Manila was held there in 1581, as was the Junta Magna. at which weighty matters of ecclesiastical import were discussed; in the vestry of this church the terms for the American occupation of Manila were signed in August. 1898. Bones of men prominent in the ecclesiastical and civil history of the islands lie buried in the chapel to the left of the altar-Salcedo. Lavesarez. and
THE CHIEF CHURCH OF THE PHILIPPINES —THE 6AIIIEDRAL OF M ANILA. The first building was erected in 1.581. but was destroyed by earthquakes. The present edifice dates back from 1879.

THE RECORD.
NEWSPAPER SLANDER Deliberate Campaign of Misrepresentation
The internal condition of Spain is sufficiently horrib le, but the deliberate lying and loading of cables in our Austra lian press is past all bearing. Either the Press is abyssmally ignorant of recent Spanish history, or it is the tool of an organ ised conspiracy to misrepresent the facts and poison the national mind against the Spanish rebels. The only cable that told the truth was published in an out-of-the-way corner in Mond ay's "West Australian." In it the nature and objects of the Spanish revolution were described in an interview published in the Englis h "Daily Mail" on Monday by General Francisco Franco. leader of the rising, who was formerly military governor of the Canar y Islands.
The choice sample of slanderous propaganda appeared in last Saturday's "Daily News," in an article entitled "Plain Man's Guide to Spain," which incidentally was a flagrant piece of plagiarism from an ill-informed Sydney publication, "Current Problems." We select a few of the more glaring lies for categorical refutation:—
"The Issue Seems Clear Cut--Communism or Fascism" The issue is between an unscrupulous Masonic Government,
w ho foisted a penal, anti-Catholk Constitution on a Catholic nation. connived at bloodshed and looting against .Catholics, and. finally, attempted to sell the country to Moscow and the Right w hich comprises the Catholic nationalists who want social justice and order, whether under ) fonarchy or Republicanism. 4
-It is only five years ago that the young Republic was launched under the clear skies of free-
dom, tolerance ideals."
and

The young Republic was laun• cited under the bleak skies of reli-
gious
hate
and anti-Catholic Masonic persecution masqueraded in the guise of Liberalism. Since the fall of the Monarchy, in April. 1931, the benevolent constitution has
bred nine major revolts. 29 reformed governments, and no fewer than 78 Ministers. There has
been freedom for all except Catholics. who comprise the prep( inderating majority of the nation. As for high ideals. we have the supreme patriotism that imports Red agitators and hands out arms to the civil populace to disport themselves.
"Until 1923, the record of government by the privileged classes—by the Monarchy, supported by three pillars form ed by the Church, the No,. bility and the Army—was appalling."
MANUEL iAZANA, The villain of the Spanish Drama and the hero of the secular Press.
SPAIN
mass of Catholics, for the most part illiterate, just passively endured these intolerable conditions until they were aroused by the Catholic Actionists under Herrera and Robles.
SPAIN is in the throes of a terrible civil war to decide whether Russian-financed Communism in the guise of Liberalism or a Catholic regime shall rule. The revolt was deliberately provoked by the demon strable inability of the Azana Government to suppress arson and pillage of Catholic property and attacks upon Catholic leader s, and by its open alliance with the Russian Comitern.
"Three-quarters of the country and colonies are already in our hands, and the fall of Madrid is hourly expected. A revolutionary triumph will restore law, order, unity and justice."

"Then came idealistic, intellectual. literary Don Manuel A zana. With his fellow Liberals he set to work to devise a constitution which would give freedom, for the first time in history, a home in Spain." The admirable Azana's work consisted in tearing down the alieg-edly democratic Republic which he had helped to frame in
1931. The new regime destroyed the last vestiges of democracy in Spain. The only period of peace which Spain had known under Republicanism was deliberately subverted by Azana, who plunged the countr - into a
deluge of blood in the Asturias revolt. For this he was sentenced to death, but the sentence was
unhappily commuted. His Cabinet contained six Freemasons, and central points in his constitution were the disestablishment of the Church. the disorganisation of the army. and the introduction of divorce. If ever a political racketeer and opportunist existed, his name is Manuel A zana, who openly boasted in the Cortes: "Spain is no longer a Catholic country." The supreme slander concerns Gil Robles, whom our informative evening press describes as a "blindly doctrinaire young Catholic," who "jockeyed for power." While it talks of "intellectual idealist" Azana. the press ought in fairness to remember that the young Catholic leader'is the son of a University Professor and himself has pursued an exceptionally brilliant scholastic career, having held a Professorship of Public Law. Successful as a journalist, he was attached for some while to the "New York Times." When elected to the Cortes he found Spain threatened with the forces of a corrupt Liberalism and a definitely antiCatholic constitution and Government. All his energies have been centred on revising that Constitution. rar from "jockeying" for power, his forebearance has been miraculous at those periods when he was howled out of the Cortes. and his opponents freely used the bomb as the instrument of policy. His brief hour of political power— from May to December. 1935—
when his party held six seats in the Coalition Cabinet, was characterised by sound and progressive administration. The army was reorganised, unemployment notabl- reduced, excellent financial results effected, and agricultural reforms set afoot which aimed to make farm labourers

Money -Lending and Usury
T
HE Commission on money -lendin g wig in this Statt is considerably which is at present sitindictment of our social order overdue. It is a terrible that some men are able to make an extortionate living out of the passions or economic necessity of other men by so exploiting their weakness or their dire need as to compel them to submit to ruinous conditions. This unnatural method of gain was discre dited through all the Christian c enturies, by the pre-Christian pagans. was reserved to our own enlightened and by Mohamedanism. It s me legalised and respectable. It is age to see the practice beto the fourteenth century the Church interesting to note that down and the civil law rigorously condemned the lending of money at interes t, except by reason of sc,,me special circumstance, 'where the lender was in danger of losing his capital or exposed himself to a loss or the deprivation of a gain. In our day, however. the Church permits the general practice e F lending at interest, provided the interest demanded is moderate. So that charity alone, and not justice, can oblige anyone to make a gratuitous loan. Some are perplexed over these different attitudes on the part of the Church, at one time conde mning, and at another authorising, the practice of taking interes t on loans. A zstisfactory explanation is to be found in the differe nce of economic creumstances and the state of society. Money was formerly employed merely as a token to facilitate the exchange of goods. Oppsrtunities for investing money in commercial ventur es or .converting it into revenue-producing property were compa ratively rare. Hence a loan to a solvent person in those days was an advantage rather than a burden. for it gave the money -lende r full security for his money, as the borrower insured him agains t its accidental loss. To-day, however. money is fruitful in itself and on this ground the Church permits the lending of money for moderate interest. .Yet moneylending is to.day the source of many sins against justice, because the interest charged is excessive, just as the profits of modern business are exorbitant. The moral issue at stake is how the rate of interest may he judged to be just and moderate. Theoretically, the fair rate of interest should nearly correspond to the average gain that those engaged in business may generally expect in a determined centre. If. for example. investors in a given centre who have money in buildings, land, or industrial enterprises. generally look for a profit of 6 per cent., the just rate of interest would be about 4 per cent. or 5 per cent. In practice, the best course is to conform to the usages established among honest men Special circumstances, of course, make the fluctuations of the rate of interest reasonable, as in the case of prices. The general decay of conscience in business, however, seems to indicate that private monev-lending is so unsatisfactory that it cannot safely he left with individual consciences. Government legislation on maximum interest rates and perhaps complete Governmental control of loans seems indicated. But the issue. of course, drives much deeper. The activities of the private money-lender are only the evil fruits of an evil tree. If men are found to be seeking loan money in large numbers (and the position of civil servants in this !rafter has become.proverbiall. the obvious inference is that they are not being paid a decent living wage. And even more ultimate than that. if the majority of men were masters and not serfs, they would take care not to forfeit their economic independence. However, the preliminary step would be the raising of wages and the Governmental control of prices to curb the exorbitant profits of big business. For. if prices advance in the same ratio as wages. the wage-earner is in no better situation than before. . That the activities of the money -lenders need examination was illustrated in a English court case dsrinc the week, in which Lord Sempill was involved. The financier was only charging 120 per cent. Tt is to be hoped that the findings of the present Commission will not be shelved, but that this national ulcer will he healtd without delay.

The multiplicity of churches has destroyed the reality of religion; their pandering to the fashions of the hour has undermined morality, so that the present attitude of men towards the supernatural is largely one of indifference, if not hostility.

Monsignor Verling Dead Archdiocese Bereaved of Saintly Priest
THE LATE RT. REV. MONSIGNOR VERLING, V.G.. P.A. A fter a long and painful illne-s, extending over some years. d eath came peacefully for the soul o f Monsignor Verling, V.G., P.A. , at the Hospital of St. John of God a t 4.15 this afternoon. His t i7ace the Archbishop was present at the death-bed. In his passing the Archdiocese is bereaved of a saintly and well-loved priest. His long association with the parish of Subiico was characterised by scrupulous fidelity and untiring zeal in his apostolic vocation. The late Monsignor Patrick Verling, V.G., P.A.. was born at Fermoy. near Cork. Ireland, in 1873. He made his priestly studies for six years at Maynooth College. where Very Rev. Dean Brennan. of Victoria Park. and R ev. Father T. Robinson, C.SS.R., of Oxford Park, Brisbane. were class -mates. and among his pro.(--ssors. were Most Rev. Dr. Man nix and Cardinal McRory. The late Monsignor was raised to the priesthood in August. 1899. in Meenstown Cathedral. Cork. In October of the same year he left Ireland to undertake missionary work in Australia. Toodyay was his first parish in W estern Australia. and after three years in the country districts he was given charge at Su12iaco. where he has laboured 7 :Htlifully and \veil for the past 34 years. He saw the growth of the parish from a sandy wild-7ness to a beautiful and progressive suburb.

BUILDINGS).
The beautification of the grounds ot S t. Mary's Cathedral, which has been proceeding for the past five months, is In place of the old now completed. wall which had done service for the past 70 years there has been erected a dwarf wall of carved Donnybrook a light by freestone surmounted wrought iron fence of pleasing design. The fence is octangular in shape and at each angle is a Gothic freestone pilThere are four groups of gates lar. hung on freestone piers with ornamental tripods at the apexes to carry electric lights. The carving of the Donnybrook stone for the base of the fence took five months and 20 craftsmen were employed on the work, which is so rarely called for that it was necessary for the men to be obtained from other occupations which they had taken in place of their skilled avocation. The grounds have been graded on an easy slope from the freestone base wall of the fence up to the Cathedral, and the whole of the roads and footpaths which were originally laid in gravel / are now paved with granolithic slabs. A sprinkler pumping system has Cathedral the been installed in 'grounds and will be supplied from a 60ft. well, which has been sunk in the north-eastern corner of the grounds. The well has been constructed of concrete casing 4ft. 6in. in diameter, and is the onlv well of this type in the State. The depth is 50ft. to river level and at that depth a concrete platform has -been built to hold the 'pump and electric motor, which will supply 6,000 gallons of water an hour to the sprinklers, The centrifugal pump has been made in the Eastern States specially for the work on the Cathedral grounds and a similar one is shortly to be installed in the grounds of ParA representative of liament House. the contractors said recently that the irrigation system which has been installed in the Cathedral grounds is by far the largest of this .nature in Aus-

in ordinary circumstances a number of years would have been required to achieve the same end. In planting trees the entire beds have been excavated and the sand replaced with a mixture of loam and manure, 30 tons o f manure and 150 tons of hills loam being required for the purpose. The flower beds are massed with flowers of varying types and colourings. In one bed are 750 ranunculi bordered with 100 giant pansies; another bed has 400 larkspurs, bordered with 400 colendula, while vet another has 200 erneraria. The eineraria were raised in glasshouses and transferred to the Cathedral grounds when about to flower. An excellent effect has been obtained by using tall slender trees to offset to advantage the Gothic spires of the Cathedral and, for the purpose, poplars and cupressus stricta (funeral pine) have been planted in groups of three and five. The poplars are grouped with the tallest trees in the centre, stir rounded with others of varying height to gain an informal effect. These poplars range in height from 20 to 45 feet, and are planted 6 feet in the ground to izi,e stability against the wind. The lawns have been thoroughly prepared and liberally dressed with fertiliser. (*ouch grass has been planted over the erktire area and winter fescue has also been sown. The fescue will give an immaculate appearance to the lawns within three weeks, though the couch grass will be in the early stages of growth for many months to come.

Notice to Schools Notice to Teachers I respectfullY ciraw the attention of t eachers of Christian Doctrine to the f ollowing points in the programme:1. Prayers.
The words of the ordinary prayers need much teaching, unless we are prepared to allow children to continue •using phrases they du not under stand, Fur example: "Most gracious advocate," in the Hails- Holy Queen; "I detest my sins,- in the Act of Contrition; "Grant me pardon, absolution, In and remission," in the Confiteor. "Litu,gy for the ('lass-Room" (Pellegrini), 1 outline definite suggestions on teaching prayers. I refer you to these pages (43-48). 2. Catechism. The unusual words, and the scientific presentation of the Catechism demands of teachers that they go slowly, using black-board and pupils' pads. To take the difficult, technical Words of the theological definition of the Catechism out of the text and put them on the black-board, creates a new presentation. The Catechism page is so familiar to the pupils that the eye passes over the difficult words. More pupils' activity in translating the answers of the Catechism into children's language is necessary. (c.f. Liturgy for the Class-Room"---p. 43. Also of The Black and in Some Methods of Teaching Religion (pp. 210-211i . Bible History.

PlIrLIP IIARGRAVE. Something of a sensation was caused in Australian musical circles on Friday, 31st. ult., when it was announced by Miss 11. Garnaut, ut Bernside, S..1.. that her charge, Philip Hargrave, the famous boy pianist, had given up the idea of a professional musical career and Philip intended to study medicine. who is now HI, has given concerts all over Australia and New Zeaalnd. Miss Garnaut said that this was no sudden impulse, as for some time Philip had been thinking about such a course. She would not attempt to influence him either v, ay. He would continue his musical studies with her and make music his recreation. He hail met many medical men and had ‘.,hava, more than a passing interest in their work. Ile had drifted towards the profession, perhaps un. e.. roa-iots'!,- at :-irst. but it was not until recently that he had come to a decision. The shc said• won'd be able to bear the expense ol his medical studies with th., moiler he had earned as a pianist. Miss Garnant was inclined to think that Philip might vet revert to his firct ,•hoice.

6 WF SCHOOL BROADCA.STS. The committee of School Broadcasts met last Wednesday to draw up the programme for the final Session. On the coming series the pupils of Ladies' College, k'ictoria Square, are giving a reading from Shakespeare. Every school in the , Archdiocese may have a copy of the programme for each class teacher, and in the foreign language groups, children may have a copy on application to 6WF, Perth. The corn. mittee is anxious to receive criticisms of the talks from teachers. So far there have been few, if any, criticisms from our Catholic schools. Any recommendation for special talks ,or specified speakers, will be favourably received by the coMmittee. A form goes with each programme on w hich the criticism is written in such a way that the talk ;s criticised without the speaker knowing from where it comes. If the teachers like any particular talk, let the committee kncni it, as that is the only way there is of learning whether the talks are suitable or not. The future of School Broadcasts rests with the teachers. provided they make their views known. A t the beginning of each Year each school must apply for programmes, stating the numbers required.

It is painful in the extreme to have to admit that their absence is due to a mean form of snobbishness which, while it indicates their mentality, is and an outrage against democracy wholly foreign to Catholic character. A character that is truly Catholic is truly great, too great to have its mentality warped by an accidental circumstance called wealth, and too great to ostracise others- from its social life because in the designs of Providence they have been placed on a plane that is but qualitatively different in Time. A Catholic social function, like the Ca. tholic Ball, is meant to bring all Catholics together, and it is hoped that this year its objective will be fully realised. The Committee.

PARISH JOTTINGS
0 CONNOR—MONAGHAN WEDDING. On Wednesday morning, 22nd. ult., there was celebrateet, by the Rev. Or. Sullivan, at St. Matthew's Church, Narrogin, the wedding, with Nuptial Mass, of Nurah Mary a . iunaghan, only daughter of Mr, and Mrs. J. J. tJoe) Mom aghan, of the Hordern Hotel, and Clarence Andrew O'Connor, eldest son of the late T. P. O'Connor and Mrs. O'Connor, of Narrogin. The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. Joe Monaghan, jtuir., made a charming picture in an ice blue swagger suit, with matching hat eye veil and beige accessories. Her shoul der spray of white camellias and hyacinths completed an attractive toilet. She was attended by Mrs. Joe Monaghan, junr., as matron of honour, and Miss Elsie Paxton, as bridesmaid. Both were attired in smartly cut swagger suits, the former in tones of dusty pink with navy accessories, and wearing a shoulder spray of shaded pink c arnations; the latter in Kenya red with brown accessories and wearing a shoulder spray of roses. Mr. W. J. Corrigan discharged the onerous and varied duties of best man, as if to the manner born, and was ably supported by Mr. Roy Paxton as groomsman. The altar was specially decorated for the occasion by the Sisters of the Sacred Heart Convent, and the choir, of which Miss Monaghan is conductress, gave an excellent rendition of St. John the Baptist's Mass in F. Bordesi's Salutaris" was sweetly sung by Mrs. Foley during the signing of the register.
-
The breakfast, held immediately a fter Mass, was attended by members of the respective families only, and at 11 a.m. a reception was tendered by Mrs. J. J. Monaghan to some forty guests in the lounge room of the Hof, dern Hotel, where a light but dainty repast was served. This function, in t he absence of a long and protracted breakfast, was vested with a semi-official tone, as the whole of the toasts and speeches so necessary at a wed. ding were tendered and honoured. Mr. W. J. (Bill) Corrigan was further shouldered with the responsibilities of chairman, and commenced by reading several scores of congratulatory telegrams. The certain element of gloom which would naturally make itself felt at the absence of their good friend and host, Mr. Joe Monaghan, who was unfortunately confined in the St. John of God HOspital, was dispelled by the news that this ever popular gentleman w as much improved in health, and by the receipt of a personal message to the.. happy couple written in the inimitable and irrepressible style which all present knew so well. Dr. Sullivan proposed the health of the Bride and Bridegroom, to which Mr. O'Connor replied, but. nnaccustomed to this new position. made the " fans pas" of using the sinssnar pronoun. Ile then proposed th.! health of the Bridesmaid, which was replied to in a most witty amusing and speech by Mr. R. Paxton. Other toasts proposed were "The Bride's Parents," by Mr. J. -ranley, who spoke very feelingly t.t (: ject, replied to by Mr. John Monaghan. The "Bridegroom's Mother,Mr U. J.

Toodyay Convent BalL The many enquirers as to the date of the 1936 Convent Ball will be content to know that September 4 has been definitely fixed upon. Mr. J. Griffin and his ever-popular orchestra have been engaged to supply the music. Mr. Griffin is right at home in Toodyay, for it was here he was reared. His old-time music is a password in our midst, whilst his recent tour of New Zealand and the Eastern States has filled his repertoire of modern music even to overflowing. Remember the date, September 4. Intending patrons from the metropolitan area would do well to make early bus reservation with either Mr. J. Hassell, of the Western Stove Co., or with Miss M. Willoughby, of Ahern's office staff. Popular Lady Competition. I'm telling ye, boys, the folk out Jennacubbine and Wongamine way are right on their toes this year, If there was ever a popular candidate in any competition, it is certainly Mrs. P. Bowen. Her mans- supporters rolled up in force to a dance on her behalf at Mumberkine on Saturday, July 25. The organisers were the young ladies of the district, and they are to be congratulated upon the social and financial success of their effort. Novelties were the order of night and Miss Sheen, of Goomalling. succeeded in winning the 10s note. At Wooroloo, Miss Boyd and Mr. McDonald are leaving nothing to chance in the organisation of their dance for August 8. A successful preliminary function was held at the Sanatorium on Wednesday, July 29. Thistook the nature of a euchre party. Mrs. S. Llyod and Miss L. Thompson announce another of their popular card evenings for Wednesday, September 12, on behalf of the candidature of Mrs. E. Chapman. On Wednesday. July 22, a pleasant afternoon was spent at the residence of Mrs. Haywood, on the GoornallingToodyav-road. The proceeds. amounting to ? (Oh! mum's the word in a competition) will further the interests of Mrs. Bowen. We are deeply grateful to Mrs. Haywood for organising this function. Mundaring Affairs. Rumour filters through that Mrs. Reddie, of .Mundaring, was the host at an afternoon tea party to a number of distinguished guests from the metropolitan area on Sunday, July 19. The Snowball Carnival (alias annual Catholic Ball) has been fixed to take place at Mundaring on Saturday. August S. The unequalled standard of this function renders it an irresistible attraction to visitors from far and wide. Good! Meet me at Mundaring on August 8th. Canonical Visitation. The Parish of Toodvav is shortly to be honoured by a second official visit from His Grace Archbishop Prendiville. His Grace will arrive in Toodyay on Friday, August 14, and on Saturday, August 15 (Feast of the Assumption), he will say Mass at the Clackline Hall at 8,30. He will visit Jennacubbine at the 8.30 Mass on Sunday, August 16, and administer the Sacrament of Confirmation. His Grace will address the congregation in Toodvay at the 11 o'clock Mass of that Sunday and confirm about 30 candidates at the evening devotions. On Monday evenisw, August 17, His Grace will hold evening devotions at the Sanatorium, and say Mass for the patients the next morning, The districts of Mundaring and Mt.

Mount Melleray- Abbey, Co. Waterford, Ireland, can surely claim to be the best known religious sanctuary in the English-speaking world. Situated on a south-eastern escarpment of the rugged Knocicmeald downs, the great Cistercian monastery dominates and consecrates the glorious Valley of the Blackwater, its tall slender spire, silhoutted against the blue of sky or the black of hill-tip, insistently pointing to the things above, a silent but neverceasing Sermon on the Mount. A very vision of beauty and peace, it leaps to the view of the approaching visitor with the suddenness and unexpectedOne moment ness of a desert oasis. surrounded by a dark, dreary wilder. ness, the next and he is gazing spellbound upon fruitful fieuds and well. stocked pastures, with the monastic pile showing grey in the distance, all enclosed in a beautiful framework of Hardly can many-tinted fir-groves. he be brought to believe that the space now occupied by the monastic buildings, and the plough-lands and the meadows of the monastic farm, was, just a century ago, quite undistinguishable from the environing waste of heather and gorse.

The Abbey was originally designed to accommodate a community ot from sixty to eighty persons; and until quite lately the numbers kept between these ligures, despite the fact that it has been called upon to furnish colonies for three new toundations: one in England, another in the United States, and the third in Cu. Tipperary, Ireland. But of recent years vocations have been markedly on the increase, with the result that the community at present totals one hundred and twenty. This, of course, means congestion which, under existing circumstances, there is no possibility of relieving by To means of another foundati6n. ease the situation in some degree, important additions have been made to the dormitory, refectory and cloisters, etc. But where the congestion makes itself most felt is in the Church and Chapter -house, and there, owing to local conditions, no extensions are possible. There is absolutely nothing for both with more it but to replace roomy structures. The project of a new Church has been debated in the comunity for alEveryone reamost half a century. lised the need of it. The original edifice was undeniably a wonderful feat for the resourceless founders, and all honour to them! Nevertheless its internal arrangements were such as rendered difficult, if not impossible, tne proper execution of the elaborate Cistercian ceremonial. This inconvenience was mainly due to the necessity of throwing open to the public the part of the nave which, according to the Constitutions of the Order, should be reserved to the lay-brothers, with the consequence that these had to be accommodated in the choir. Besides the old roof had begun to suffer from the weather, and in spite of repeated repairs was constantly leaking. Still the new Church seemed as far off as e ver. Lack of funds constituted the chief, indeed the only, obstacle. But now the rapid increase in numbers ren. dered impracticable any further postponement of the great enterprise. Either suitable subjects must be turned away or room must be made for them. Of course the latter alternative is the only one that could be considered. So putting their trust in Providence and in the generosity of the faithful, the monks have at length embarked on the great adventure. On August 17, 1933, as the climax of the Centenary Celebrations of the Founding of the Abbey, His Eminence Cardinal MacRory, with impressive solemnity placed the first stone in position. Building operations, however, did not begin until the end of February, 1935. According to the design furnished by the eminent Irish architects, Messrs. Jones and Kelly. Mount Mellerary's new church will be a perfect gem of architectural art, in the traditional Cistercian style. A s the expense of such an edifice will go far beyond the resources of the community, the friends of .Mellerav the world over will be proud and happy to rally to their assistance. The Irish people, needless to say, are al. ready doing their part with characterThere will be need, istic generosity. help. however, of outside And whence can that help be more con. fidentiv looked for than from those sunny lands in the Southern Pacific where hundreds of Melleray-trained priests, and not a few Bishops, have laboured with zeal and lasting fruit for the propagation of the Gospel? The very first Catholic missionary in Australia—Father O'Flynn—was a member of the community that founded Mount Melleray. It has been suggested. and we think very happily, that there should be one Australian Chapel among the many the new Church will contain, one Chapel built by Australians, especially. past-pupils of Mount Melleray Seminary, and consecrated to the memory of the countless mission. ;Aries who, trained in the same Acadernv, devoted their lives to the task of Pxtenriing Christ's Kingdom beneath h e Sol:the-ill Cross.

BIRTHDAY GREETINGS TO Winnie Froude, The Little Ray of Sunshine, Francis Alphonsus Murphy, Teddy, Bett, and Peggy Smith. Dear Nieces and Nephews,—There are five strong of you this week, and I was thinking it would be grand if we could have a group photograph of you in the Corner, as I'm sure it would outshine that of the Dionne Quins. You form rather an interesting "quintuplet," since your ages range from two to eighteen, and dear important Eighteen, I hope you won't object to being numbered in honour of the 6th.? You should not, since your birthday falls on one of the tritunphant feasts of Our Divine Lord—a feast that should fill us with the hope that when after death we behold the Face of God we will be told we can remain in Its Light for all eternity, instead of a fleeting span as was the earthly privilege of the three chosen apostles. Our Ray of Sunshine, like the Dionne Quins., will know what it feels like to be Two on the 2nd., and what better wish can we voice than to boric she will remain the little Ray of Sunshine in her own hoine for many a year to come? Then there„ is you, Francis Alphonsus Murphy, and though the book doesn't say how old you will he on the feast of Your second Patron.

It is bleak and stormy as I am typing this, and next week the birthday letter will probably be done with the sun streaming down on us, and that is the way it is with all our lives--fine clays and rainy days, and days of joy and days of sadness, hut if you five live to grow old and if you love Our Lord as You love Him now, you will he able to thank Him as much for the sad parts of your lives_as for the happy periods, as just as there would never be a rainbow if there wasn't the rain, there would never be the shining evidence of God's mercy and goodness over our lives if there was no sorrow in it, so, therefore. T can express no better wish for each of you than that you will be five constant believers in Him and in His goodness, come what may, and that you will always know the peace of making your acts of resignation to His Divine Will in hours of trial as fervently and lovingly as you make vour acts of thanksgiving for His favours in times of gladness.
