Does the Catholic Church grant burial to one who takes his own life? The normal . law of the Church forbids the burial of a suicide when there is no 'reason at all to think that he was not in his pro. per senses at the time. She refuses her rites in such cases to impress upon people the gravity of such a crime against oneself, society, and Almighty God. But when there are good reasons to believe that a suicide was not in his normal senses, and it is fairly common knowledge that the person was in ill-health or oppressed by worries, the Church permits Catholic burial.

Protestants and "Foreign" Control One could not imagine a Protestant Archbishop or laity submitting to a foreign control.

But as Catholics owitlg the same spiritual allegiance to Christ. there is no room for the word "foreigner' amongst members of the universal Church. We Catholics can say with St. Paul.

And I hope I have helped you to understand that, where His religion is concerned, all thought in terms of nationalism, and all notion of "foreigners" must he out of place. The Catholic idea is that, whilst we must render -to Caesar the things that are due to Caesar, in the temporal and civic order, our religious allegiance abstracts from national considerations. From the religious point of view we are not only brothers in Christ, but members of Christ. And one member of Christ cannot he "foreign" to another member of Him.

er, feeds it, educates it, disciplines it into the law of loyalty, and inspires it with fervour for the State religion—which IS COMmunism itself, as proclaimed by Lenin and the minor prophets. So there is not much need for enduring marriage, unless one feels like it. A man and Nvoman come together for a time. If they have a child they hand it over to the nearest cheche. By a penny postage stamp they may divorce each other. The Almighty State. The State has a right to take the man away frOM one place and
send him to another where his labour is required. No man is allowed to have private opinions hostile to the StSte or the law of the commonweal. History, literature and art are equally the servants of the State ideal. There must be no heresies, lest. the State be disturbed. There must be no departures from type, lest order be upset. The Communistic State does not tolerate erratic genius, rebel minds, oddities of character, private interpretations of obedience. Human nature is standardised. Men's minds are standardised. Their way of life is standardised; because any retreat of the individual into a place and life of his Own would be contrary to the communal faith and order. All this seems inherent in the system. There must be this regimentation, this barrack life, this common discipline, to make the system work. Inevitably, if it endures, it must produce a human type and society from which many individual differences are eliminated, with all individual responsibilities and initiative. It is the death of the separate soul, that the communal State may live; and if one wants to know the logical result of this new experiment, one may read Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley— one of the most horrible books ever written, and only tolerable as a dreadful warning of the direction in which humanity may be moving.

Private Rights. But there are certain conseences of the communistic State which seem inevitable and inseparable. If all property is in common, then family life seems to be w eakened; because private property, and the necessity of earning and keeping it for wives and children and descendants, have been the strongest motives of the human family. If the individual has no importance beyond his little service to the State, his rights as an individual, his rights over the children, the old moralities of the Christian world become, or may become, threatened. In the individualist State a man labours to get a mate, he toils to earn bread for his children, he struggles to -give them a decent education and other advantages. His whole ambition, purpose and energy of life are centred in his family. But under the Communistic system the family is no longer of great importance.

The Cornin,i. of the Grail
%rep The arrival of five Ladies of the Grail ill September and the s ubsequent visit of the Countess de Hemptinne to the Adelaide Congress in November, will probably signalise a great forward movement for Catholic Action in Australia and ultimately lead to its close organisation on a national basis according the mind of the Holy Father. The visit of Countess Christine de Hemptinne alone would be significant. For not only is this great Catholic laywoman National President of Catholic Action in Belgium, but she is also World Presdent of the Catholic Women's Movement. She comes to Australia, moreover, accredited by the Holy Father and with special instructions from Mgr. Pizzardo, the offical head of Catholic Action for the world. With her xvide experience and astonishing zeal for Catholic Action, Countess Hemptinne should prove a real inspiration to the Catholic women of Australia.
As for the coming of the Grail, that unquestionably is an event of first-rate importance. For it is essentially a movement Of our time which aims to carry the Christian warfare, with great daring, into the very ranks of the enemy. Its members do not retire within the cloister. They live in the world and endeavour to carry the apostolate into precisely those spheres where they live and work. They meet the moderns on their own ground. Hence They are indisthe rank and file of the Grail wear no uniform. tinguishable from their fellows and seek to achieve their ends not by controversy nor by individual publicity, but by the solidarity of their Catholic convictions and by the unselfishness and cheerfulness which characterise the carrying through of those convictions. Nor are their activities narrowly confined to strictly religious spheres. They are equally free to engage in cultural, charitable, and social affairs. They are endeavouring to revive that interest and participation in human things which so strongly characterised t he Ages of Faith. One of the most striking features of the work of the Grail has been this revival of Catholic cultural influence, exercised mainly through mass dramatisations. Within recent years English members of the movement have presented in the Albert Hall, London, "Everyman" and Francis Thompson's "Hound of Heaven," which, These cultural according to reviewers, were uniquely moving. efforts, though they surprise Catholics, should vet remind them t hat they have come close to losing a very precious portion of their traditional heritage. The Church has been, through the centuries, the patron par excellence of the arts and the spirit of Catholicism had blossomed into the finest flowers of genuine art and literature. It is only since the Reformation that these spiritual manifestations have been "departmentalised," dissociated one from the other. The Grail aims to restore all things in Christ. and in that restoration t here will be no estrangement between art and religion. Precisely is the Church "Catholic" in that it penetrates and That narrow view permeates human life in its every aspect. religious (in the specifically to the Church confine which would sense of devotional) activity is fundamentally false—a product of The Catholicity of the Church's mission has the Reformation. been extraordinarily stressed by the Encyclicals of the present Pope.

Drew's decision was received by the party with expressions of deep regret. Mr. Drew, who was first elected to the Legislative Council in 1900, holds the unique distinction of having been a member of every Labour Government in this State. Last June the years _ which he had served as a Minister reached a total of 15. which is a record for 'Western Australia. Mr. Drew was born in 1865 at Northampton. and, after various activities in that district, began a journalistic career, succeediwg to the editorship of the "Express" in 1892. In 1900 he nominated for the Central Province of the Legislative Council. the sitting member for which was the late Sir William Loton. and was returned unopposed. He has held the seat ever since, with the exception of from 1918 to 1924. In August. 1904. Mr. Drew accepted the portfolio of Lands in the Daglish Government and. on a reshuffling of portfolios the following- year, he became Colonial Secretary and Minister for Agriculture, which posts he held until the Government resigned in A ugust, 1905. On the formation of the Scaddan Government in 1911, Mr. [kw- was made Colonial Secretary, resigning with the Government in 1916. gri Defeated in 1918. Mr. Drew regained the seat in 1924, being appointed Chief Secretary and Minister for Education and the North-West in the Collier Government, holding these offices until the Government was defeated at the general election in 1930. Three years later, with the return of Labour, he was made Chief Secretary and was again appointed to .this office after the general election this year. During his total of 30 years as a member of the Legislative Council Mr. Drew's sincerity and courtesy have won for him the r espect and esteem of all members, of all shades of political ()pinion. His task of piloting Labour Bills through a House in Which his parts- is outnumbered has been heavy, hut he has never failed in tact and sympathy, and has made a concientious s tudy of all matters which came Within his sphere.

First Communion at Highgate
On Sunday, August 16, a group ot children from the Sacred Heart School, Highgate, approached the altar rails of their parish church to receive their First Holy Communion. Great was the surprise of the parishioners to see this happy hand of innocent little children seated in the front of the church on the Sunday following the Feast of the Assumption, for First Communion Day in Highgate is usually the Feast of Christ the King. but this year there were quite a number of children whom their spiritual director considered were already sufficiently instructed to receive this wonderful Sacrament, and it was accordingly decided that for them the Feast of the Assumption should be the guiding date, but the large body of First Communicants for 1936 is still waiting for the Feast of Christ the King. The hymns sung and the Acts recited by the children reflected the greatest credit on their teachers, and to see them approach the altar rails was a truly wonderful sight, surpassed only by the gleam of happiness and joy which radiated from the faces of the privileged little band as they returned to their seats with the Lord and God within their breasts in the earthly form of a piece of bread. Rev. Father Kennedy was the celebrant of the Mass, and his sermon was an eloquent address to the children. who thoroughly appreciated his every word and with their strong loud young voices gave to him promises to show greater respect and love for Our Lord in His great Sacrament of Love. One of the school rooms was beautifully decorated in colours of blue and white and here, before an altar in honour of Our Lady, the August First Communicants of the Sacred Heart School, Highgate, partook of a sumptuous breakfast, and each one received a little token to commemorate the great day. The Administrator of the parish, Rev. Father Wallace, and Rev. Father Kennedy were both present at the breakfast, just as has been Rev. Father Crowley present at similar functions for many years past. It has ever been the desire of Rev. Father Crowley and the good Sisters of Notre Dame des Missions to make First Communion Day in Highgate one which will live in the memories of the children for all time. and this year though their parish priest is far away Sunday. August 16, was made by both clerry and Sisters a day that will never be forgotten by the happy little ones who were so privileged as to have necial day set apart for them to receive for the first time the Sacrarnent of the Most Holy Eucharist.

Trayning-Wyalkatchem Parish
Donnybrook
Popular Girl Competition. Last July, at a well-attended meeting of ladies at the Convent, a definite line was decided upon towards augmenting the convent extension fund, when it was agreed to launch a popular girl. competition. Miss Dorothy Barron already well known among the parishioners of the Trayning district, is receiving solid support from the proceeds of bridge parties and various raffles. A big fancy dress ball at Trayning is being planned for the near future. Kununoppin and probably Bencubbin will rally to Dorothy's assistance, and there is no doubt that Dorothy's Trayning friends will leave no stone unturned to give her the lead in the contest. That's why Miss Elsewood, of Wyalkatchem, had to engage the sturdy W yalkatchem Catholic workers, who will not suffer to be beaten by Trayning. At a special meeting held after Mass recently the Wyalkatchem congregation pledged itself to support their appointed candidate. On the other hand, Miss Molly Gleeson is taking no risks. Her friends at Yelbeni are determined to make Molly the most popular girl in the whole Wheat Belt. Her trumpet call is sounding now in many districts. We wish the competition every success, and hope the Sisters attain their goal, namely, the much-needed accommodation for girl boarders. It is expected that the scattered Catholic community of the Wyalkatchem-Trayning parish will support the competition to its hest ability.

On the night ui August 12, the picturesque South-West town of Donnybrook was the venue of the dancing public of that corner of the State. TN occasion was the annual Catholic Ball, always the outstanding event of the season in the district. This year it was an Oriental Ball, and it would be difficult to imagine a prettier setting for the five hundred happy dancers who were still five hundred at 3 a.m. The greater part of the credit for the success of the function must be heaped on the young shoulders of Mr. Stan Jordan and Miss Mary Foley, both of whom, however, are hardened veterans in the matter of skilful ball management. The hall decorations radiated from an aerial pagoda in a mass of streamers, Chinese lanterns, and chains of t winkling lights. Ranged round the outskirts were almond trees smothered in pink blossoms, and directly under a wall-frieze of midnight blue. On the stage, surrounded in golden blooms and against a pagoda background. Doreen D'Arcy and her band dispensed popular rhythms that made the night seem all too short. To cap an excellent attendance• beautiful music, and artistic surroundings, the supper arrangements were sumptuous. Served in the lavishly decorated supper-room by an enthusiastic body of workers, the only fitting adjective is "perfect." The committee wish to thank the numerous helpers who combined to make the Oriental Ball. the great success it undoubtedly was. Among those present were: Miss Joy Durbin, Miss Mary Foley, Miss P. Boucaut, Miss L. Boucaut, Miss Lorraine Bovell, Miss Billie Kessell (Perth), Miss E. Woodbrook, Miss N. Sears, Mrs. D, M. Ferguson, Mrs. A. C. Frost, Mrs. J. 13. Mitchell, Mrs. L. Overheu, Miss M.

Dear E. E. Me----Congratulations on your lucky win, and the prompt spirit that sent me a share in it. I have started a special appeal on behalf of the saint you name, as it takes £5 to finance him in the column, and I am afraid he might be a bit of an outsider if I put him down yet, but I have given him the credit of the overplus on Tiddles' patron, and with your £1 added he has a fairly good start and should do the rest himself.

BUSHIE BESSY. Dear Bushie Bessy.—It is sweet to find an ardent lover of Our Lady manifesting her Immaculate Mother's humility. Your share in helping on the Scheme has been anything but small, and according to the increase of my Objectives you have increased your efforts, and so much of the eredit of each year's success is due to your hidden and constant work.

tarrying in this village either painful or perilous for the Saviour, since St. John adds immediately: "After that, He descendHis with ed to Capharnaum Mother, His brothers, and His disciples." The uncouth violence of the Nazarenes was proverbial. Perhaps they refused to see anything but a clever imposture in the miracle of Cana, and so would force this "son of Joseph" to take Himself out of their country. But the first sojourn of Jesus at Capharnaum was of short duHowever, at that time ration. He manifested His power by the tone of authority which thrilled in His speech and by His miracles, insomuch that only a little later we shall hear the Nazarenes uttering their reproach: "Do some of the great works like those which you performed in Capharnaum here in your own country!" We do not know what deeds these were, whose renown had been spread throughout Galilee; we are forced to resign ourselves to the bare knowledge of their occurrence. Hardly had the Saviour awakened Capharnaum to a knowledge of His presence by these miracles when He withdrew from their country-side. .The caravans which go up to the Pasch were being formed just at this time, collected from all the lands bordering on the lake. Jesus joined company with the pilgrims of Galilee.
The First Pasch in the Ministry of Jesus. Apparently they took the route through Perea, and arrived in Jerusalem by way of Bethany and the Mount of Olives. There was nothing at that time to distinguish Him from the crowd of Jews about Him—neither the testimony of the Precursor. which was almost forgotten by this, nor the miracles wrought in Capharnaum, since no report of them had up to this date reached Jerusalem; the Saviour entered the Holy City unknown, unnoticed, and with nothing to mark Him out from the throng. His first act was to. go up to the Temple to pray; but it was useless for Him to seek any place on the Holy Hill for silent adoration; for He being a son of _hula, might not penetrate within the porches of the Levites: He must remain with His tribe without in the lower courts; hut just now and all during the feasts this part of the Sanctuary was given over to the merchants, and was thus profaned lw an unhallowed traffic. The Coming of the Hucksters. This abuse, unheard of before the Captivity, had crept in since the period when the Jews, who had been dispersed over the whole world, thronged into Jerusalem for the Passover. As they could not bring with them trom those far distant lands the animals necessary for the sacrifice, it happened that tor a long while the small number of victims was in disgraceful contrast with the To m ultitude of worshippers. guard against this dearth of oblatihns, one of Herod's favourite courtiers, Irava, son of Bota, gathered thither great flocks of sheep, and generously offered them to the sons of Israel.

these enterprises, whence they derived numerous perquisites! Protected by their political influence, the sellers soon slipped into every avenue of the Temple and all through the Porches of the Gentiles, turning that vast court into a market, where was set out for sale every requisite for the service of the altars— cages full of doves intended for the offerings of the poor; herds of cattle and flocks of sheep, for richer customers. Indeed it was not alone the paschal lamb which had to be immolated at this season ; the Jews of the Dispersion, since they came to Jerusalem but once a year. were obliged to wait until this visit to make presentation of such y„ictims as were required of them, either aceording to the prescriptions of the Law, or in fulfilment of some pious VOW.

The Desecration of the Temple. It must be remembered how innumerable these sacrifices were in order to conceive a just idea of the tumult, which was aggravated by the presence of the moneychangers. Seated at their tables, these bankers of the lower classes provided every one with the half' shekel which he must pay "as the price of his soul ;" and this because the greater part of the visiting Jews. haying come from Roman provinces, would have in hand only moneys stamped with idolatrous images, and therefore unworthy of being offered to the Lord. Necessary as this traffic may have seemed, it profaned the House of God. Certainly the victims were always immolated and the rites celebrated upon the topmost terraces: but the chanting and the prayers were no longer audible in the lower courts; shrill cries, incessant bellowings, coin rattling upon the t rays of the noisy brokers, a confused rabble of pilgrims and hucksters, with their beasts lying about the mosiac pavement of the porches as though it were the litter of their stables. This was what Jesus must needs hrar and see within the very shadow of the Sanctuary. (To be Continued.) THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK. Sunday: Most men are better than the estimate we form of t hem before we know them. 1;15 Monday: "A tree hath hope: if it be cut, it groweth green again, and the boughs thereof sprout." (Job. 14.) Tuesday : Try to view things from the standpoint of ten years hence, and you Vill make fewer mistakes. W ednesday: "To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I became all things 10 all men, that I might save all." (I. Corinthians.) Thursday : A really holy man has no greater satisfaction than the discovery and promotion of another's holiness. Friday: "Jesus Christ, yester7 day, and to-day: and tic same f orever." Saturday: A hymn tune, of which a musical critic might say that it has little artistic merit. may nevertheless make a powerful emotional appeal, on account of its association with some outstanding event in our lives. such as our First Holy Communion.
