Subjects Treated With Great Variety
I would like to travel by that gigantic liner, the "Queen Mary," to Los Angeles, calling on the way at all the ports of Australasia. Arrived there I would choose one of the most exclusive hotels jor my sojourn.
(By BRENDA STOKES.) Is international sport a benefit? The unthinking public might be tempted to acclaim with one voice an affirmative response; but to one who has studied the question deeply, and who has taken into account the exigencies of poor, frail human nature, many difficulties will present themselves. Even after a detailed study of the matter, any opinion formed must necessarily be restricted and incomplete as, at the present time, international sport is still in its infancy. Bearing in mind this fact, any decision arrived at must be taken, not so much as conclusive, as prophetic. It will rest with future generations to declare triumphantly that their time has seen the full realisation of all the Ilenefits ascribed to international sport, or to aver sadly that the ideal has long since faded from the mind of man, overwhelmed by the insuperable difficulties crowding the way to its achievement. Meanwhile we can only observe the trend which international sport is taking, and thus endeavour to discover if the benefits. which its originators were so sure of it conferring on the participating nations, have so far been realised, partly or in full. A glance back at the ideals and objects of those who made international .sport possible will enable us to find out whether we are advancing towards our goal, or retrogressing. Means to Brotherhood. If the former is the case, inteinational sport, as conceived by its originators, will be the means whereby the nations of the world, despite barriers of race and creed, will be drawn together by a closer bond of sympathy and understanding. The interchange of opinion, the deeper knowledge, and consequently the more tolerant view, of the prejudices and customs of other nations will banish racial antipathy. As a result of this attitude the danger of war, which frequently arises out of the ignorance of one country of the needs and customs of another, Nvill be lessened considerably, and perhaps in time completely abolished. Future generations Avill exemplify the ideals of the past. and the blessed virtues of understanding. sympathy and friendship vill continue to flourish between nations. If sport is .characterised by the true sportsmanlike and competitive spirit, then may we hope that it vill confer its manifold benefits upon the nations of the w orld. But already in many countries important factors have intervened to check the realisation of these ideals: and there is a danger that sport will degenerate from a happy and pleasant form of recreation into a systematic training for the battlefield. In too many cases it is regarded as the means by which there may be produced a race of Physically perfect men, the bulwarks of the nation. In this case failure in an international c ontest would be looked upon as a blot on the nation's honour. In the mad rash for supremacy, might not the rights, spiritual, moral and temporal of the individual.- be overlooked? While, therefore, international sport is regarded merely as a means of demonstrating the strength of the nation, we can never affirm that its establishment has conferred benefits upon the world.

THE WINNING CONTRIBUTIONS Last week, our first essay competition this year drew to a close. Entries were received from all parts of the State, and most of our Catholic schools were represented by more than one competitor. Hence the standard of English composition attained in our schools may be gauged with a certain degree of accuracy. In the senior division, Brenda Stokes, of St. Joseph's Convent, Cunderdin, was awarded first prize. Candidates discussed every aspect of International Spbrt with lively interest, but frequently forgot the literary aspect of their work in their anxiety to relate the facts. Among the juniors many novel ways of spending a holiday were suggested. The world tour seems to have captivated the youthful imagination, so much so, that the romances of Jules Verne become the merest commonplaces. Switzerland, Egypt, China, Fiji ,and the South Pole—all appear to offer unlimited opportunities for enjoying oneself. A ustralia alone seems barren of adventure. Joyce Myers, of St. Joseph's Convent, Victoria Square, submitted the best essay with a well-written account of a holiday trip. Freedom in the choice of prizes was fully appreciated by all the entrants to the comtietition, who exhausted the whole range of juvenile wants. The chosen gifts have been forwarded to the respective winner in each division
C ommercialisation. To some degree it is a deplorable fact that the elements of commercialism have been allowed to creep into sport. Should this commercialistic spirit, which degrades sport to the level of a Money-making concern, spread to every branch of athletic achievement, it were all in vain to hope that the dreams of those early idealists may be fulfilled. Up to the present in our own southern land sport is untainted by elements other than those which tend to produce a feeling of friendship and understanding. True, on account of this attitude we failed to carry off many of the laurels of victory in the Olympic Games, but what matters that Nvhen we have accomplished a far greater object? We have preserved the true spirit of international sport. through the medium of which we have become more closely knit with other parts of the British Empire in a feeling of love and loyalty for the Motherland. In the extension of our sport with other nations, may we not hope that similar benefits will result? In the years to come may we never place sport on a commercial basis. May we ever he able to re-echo the noble sentiments of those grandly simple lines in Lawrence Rim-011's "Song of the Ungirt Runners": " We swing ungirded hips And lightened are our eyes. The rain is on our lips, We do not run for prize." Then, and then only, will the benefits arising from sport played internationally be realised.
AN IDEAL HOLIDAY. (By JOYCE MYERS.) Many and various are the opinions concerning the "Ideal Holiday." Those lucky ones whose bank balances will permit it, go for world tours. Then country people seek the rush and bustle of city life and the town-dweller longs for quiet peace—fulness among the tall gums of the bushland. The spectacled professor of natural istory would probably prefer to spend his time hunting the woods for specimens. The book-worm would choose.. a library where he would be able to browse about as he wished. To me all holidays are so delightful that it is difficult to imagine the ideal one. I think. however, that the excitement and
I would be introduced to a senior in the film world who would show me all the inner workings of film production. I would frequent the most popular restaurants in the hope of catching a glimpse of my favourite stars. The homes of the stars in Beverley Hills would be another attraction. From there I would wend my way to California where many of the stars go to es cape the hot summer of Holly wood. From California my homeward route would be overland to New York, and then across the Atlantic to London. An ideal conclusion to my trip would be to arrive in London for the Coronation. Perhaps it would be too much to hope that such a small and insignificant person as myself would catch more than a glimpse of the procession. But even a glimpse would be enough. The colour and glitter that must accompany such pageants would always remain in my memory. Apart from the thrill of the procession, I would see London in its holiday attire and the people in their gayest mood. But even more thrilling than all this would be my return to Australia by air: Rome, Baghdad, Calcutta, Rangoon left behind, and at last Australia: our . . . Sunburnt country, A land of sweeping plains. Of ragged mountain ranges, Of droughts and flooding rains." —and my home!

Two Scotland Yard men brought the information to Father Gabana at his Ealing home. To hold that Gallagher's action was other than a ruse to save his colleague from disaster is to s tretch the long arm of coincidence too far. McGovern's ignorance on Spanish affairs is notorious. Father Gabana is an authority on the subject. When the challenge was issued it was regarded as a practical certainty that McGovern would not accept. There have been plenty of opportunities for _Gallagher to muzzle Father Gabana by an appeal based on Britain's non-intervention policy. That he chose the present time is obviously a move designed to help his associate in a serious dilemma.

to others. This followed a question as to whether "His Majesty's Government proposed taking any action to restrict his activities in attacks upon the Governments of Spain and Catalonia." McGovern announced his willingness to take issue with Father Gabana in a letter accusing him of being "a propagandist for Franco. the foul and bloody murderer of Spanish men, women and children," and stated that he was "guilty of misleading,. cunning and lying statements both on the platform and in the press." He would, he continued, refuse to meet him for any other reason than debate. as he considered him guilty of shocking conduct in his defence of Franco, Mussolini, Moors and Legionaries. In kceping with the wildness of his other statements, McGovern has expressed his belief that Father Gabana was the real author of the pamphlet, "How They Bluffed McGovern." which was the work of Rev. Dr. Grimley. Father Gabana's Activities.
Through about fifty sermons and a like number of lectures delivered in many parts of Britain, Fathet Gabana has done more than any other individual to enlighten the masses on Spain.

He has paid annual visits there for the past nine years, taking office each August as a supply for convent chaplains or priests on parochial work. The Spani§h Refugee Fund of the "Catholic Times" was his conception, and- he has worked hard in other directions for refugees who have found themselves stranded in London. A s chaplain to the Englishspeaking community in Barcelona, he has been thanked several times by the British Government for such matters as having organised services in the Cathedral on the jubilee and death of King George V., and arranging a reception for the British Mediterranean fleet when it anchored .off the port.

An effort is to be made to get Mr. Arnold Lunn, who has just returned from a visit to Spain. to deputise for Father Gabana in the debate with McGovern. It will be interesting to see whether the latter uses the technical loophole open to him to evade the meeting. .Tudge: "What is the meaning of the expression, `Sez you?'" Counsel: "Mud, it would appear that it is a slang expression of American origin which has gained regrettable currency in the language of the people through the insidious agency of the cinema, and is, I am given to understand, employed to indicate a state of dubiety as to the credibility of veracity of a statement made by the speaker."

Glancing through the results of all matches one was particularly struck with the evenness of several matches and of the extraordinary discrepancies Apparently in the scores of others. the selectors of several clubs have an exaggerated idea of the playing ability of several of their members; they would be well advised to realise the fact that the standard of play now given in the Association has improved out of all knowledge, and when placing teams in the future they select a grade where their members will secure a reasonable chance of victory. Nothing is so disheartening to players than to be made a chopping block of. In the round just .concluded it was noticed that St. Mary's men had defeated Peninsula after a most exciting encounter.

THE RECORD
THV, RECORD PERTH, SATURDAY. MAY 22, 1937.
Catholic Taxpayers' Campaign On Sunday last was inaugurated a nation-wide campaign to obtain justice for denominational schools. Subsequent to the de-cision of the Hierarchy at the Education Congress in Adelaide last November, the Catholic Taxpayers' Association came into being. The organisation was inaugurated in each State, and without ostentation the State Councils organised committees in each parish of their territories. The date of the official opening for the campaign was fixed for May 16, and on Sunday last, therefore, the claims of religious schools were set forth from every Catholic pulpit throughout the Commonwealth. Although inaugurated by the priests, the movement is essentially of a lay character. After all it is the laity which bears the burden of the education anomaly The success of the campaign vill ultimately depend on our ability to present our claims in such a way as to compel the fairmindedfless of the Protestant majority of this country. Many misconceptions are prevalent which it is our clear duty to dispel. • In the "West Australian" of the 18th. hist, for example, were reporteal the public questions which were to come before the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church. Regarding the question of justice for religious schools, it was stated that the public questions committee viewed with concern "the propaganda of all departments of the Roman Catholic Church to secure subsidies for its schools." The committee, moreover, considered the matter finally dealt with bv the Assisted Schools Abolition Act of 1895 Finally, it expressed its faith in the existing secular system of the State schools. .This brief report contains no fewer than four fundaznental errors. and it is essential that Catholics be in the position to correct them. 1. The Taxpayers' Association is not asking for Government subsidy for religious schools. A subsidy, we take it. is some gratuitous gift on the part of the Government to which the recipient has not strict natural right, as, for example. bounties on wheat or gold. What Catholics demand in this matter is not charity but justice. not a subsidy but a refund of what it. would cost the State to educate our children. In view of the fact that Australian Catholics have saved the country about £50,000.000 to date, this does not seem an unreasonable demand. 2. The Catholic Taxpayers' Association is not campaigning exclusively for Catholic schools. It asserts the right of all denominational schools to claim for pAyment by the State for the secular education provided in religious schools foi. children who have a right to free education by the State. 3. The claim of the Presbyterian committee that the matter was finally dealt with by the :Assisted Schools' Abolition Act of 1895, is little short of preposterous. The Parliamentary files of that year reveal that Bishop Gibney and Monsignor Bourke, representing the Catholic community, were heard in evidence before a joint committee of both Houses, not to say whether assisted schools should be abolished, but to estimate the terms and conditions on which it would be equitable to abolish the system, "having regard to the vested interests which have been legally created." To suggest -as the Rev. G. Tulloch did personally some few Nveeks ago, and as he does now through corporate representation that Catholics connived at the introduction of secularism, or were satisfied by the temporary settlement, is simply grotesque and in contradiction of historical fact. The minutes of the evidence given in 1895 are replete with Bishop Gibney's dissatisfaction. Nothing he could have done or said would have preserved the Catholic schools. Under duress. and with no alternative, he accepted the pitiable morsel of £15,000. Actually. before the Commission, he estimated the vested interest of the -Catholic Educational Organisation at £84,975 1 1 s. Old. When asked by the Chairman if he would be prepared to sell and hand over the whole of the Catholic schools at this valuation, Bishop Gibney replied: "1 certainly sbould not hand them over to anyone at that valuation. T have put a valuation upon them which is very moderate, simply to show what we have done for the cause of education encouraged by the Government." Again he stated: "If you are going to cut us off. then it is stated we will get a liberal offer from the Government. but the most generous offer would not pay the Catholic body It would not pay them to accept £100.000." In reply to another .question. the Bishop said: "I estimate that it would not pay us to surrender our case under #1000,000. If it was left to me to say whether I would surrender, I would say `No.'" Will the Presbyterian General Assembly sincerely contend that £15,000 was any sort of compensation for the work aeeorn. plished by Catholic education between 1871 and 1895, to say nothing of the tremendously increased organisation and expense of these subsequent 42 years? In the light of these incontrovertible facts, it is clearly a mis-statement to say that ''the Roman Catholic Church built all its schools since that date (1895) in full unarstanding that no State assistance would be forthcoming." How- a Government. moreover, at any given historical moment. can legislate for all eternity, especially when that legislation is patently unjust, is in the nature of a poser to the plain man. 4. Lastly, there is an alleged implication on the part of Catholics concerning the "low moral tone" of State schools. It cannot he denied that this is to a good extent supported by statistics of juvenile delinquency, but we have no desire to labour the point.
Saturday, May 22, 1937.
The broad issue is that the Presbyterian Assembly supports secularism. Catholicism condemns it, because it is incomplete and places education on a naturalistic basis. To admit the present system of secular education is to admit that religion is merely incidental to education, when, in fact. Christians must regard it as fundamental. Even many Protestant leaders have declared that the non-religious ;'school means the gradual emptying of the Christian Churches. On purely rational grounds it would appear more feasible to expect supernatural conduct from a child trained according to supernatural rather than natural motives. It is earnestly to be hoped that the report of the Presbyterian public questions committee is ,in this matter, rather in the nature of a first impression than a considered opinion. Catholics look confidently to their Protestant brethren for support in this campaign for educational justice, because natural rights are matters upon which sectarianism cannot be considered as impinging
Spanish Kelief Committee
In a previous issue we warned our readers against contributing to the appeal of the Spanish Relief Committee, because its character was suspect and its explanations unsatisfactory. A -controversy in Victorian papers revealed that the committee would give no guarantee that the inoney collected would be impartially distributed in both the parts of Spain under Nationalist and Communist control. Investigations locally disclose a similar state of affairs. In view of the fact that a concert in aid of the funds ot the Spanish Relief Committee was held in Anzac House on Friday night, it is pertinent to enquire where the funds are being sent from Western Australia. We have it on the authority of no less a person that Mrs. Nettie Palmer that the funds will be sent to the Communist headquarters in Hosier Lane, London. This is further supported rw the fact that the secretary of the local committee was permitted to carry a banner in the Labour Day procession which was typical of the Communist propaganda misrepresenting- the character of the war of liberation in Spain. Further, the Communist organ—"The Workers Star"—has been zealous in taking up the cudgels in defence of the committee. And ‘vhy not, seeing that it is not intended tp offer relief to the thousands of refugees from Communist and Anarchist atrocities in the greater part of Spain. * At a recent meeting of the local committee most unsatisfactory replies were received to vital questions. Officials declared that assistance would be given to both sides, but in the same breath admitted that they had depots only on the Government side of the line. Asked why this was so, they declared that they had permission to operate on the Government side but not on the Nationalist. Pressed as to whether the Nationalist permission had been sought, they did not know. When it Nvas inquired what necessity there had been to set up separate depots when a world-wide organisation already existed in the Red Cross, no reply was forthcoming. The Red Cross had not been approached. From all this it is clear that relief from this fund will be given only in those areas into which no practising Spanish Christian dare flee, because of the r eligious persecution. These committees, while proclaiming impartiality, are out only to assist those people whose Government has exported to France and Russia £150.000.000 in bullion which should have proved more than sufficient to provide food and clothing. as well as the latest Russian tanks and 'planes. • • Although the Spanish Relief Committee is of little enough consequence in itself, it is important as an illustration of the new Communist tactic, whidi is the securing of political support for the Communist Party under the piletence of enlisting charitable assistance. A recently published pamphlet of G. M. Godden's provides irrefutable evidence that the Russian Soviets and the Third Internationale actually directed their affiliated organisation s in Australia to secure political support for the Communists by means o f the present Spanish Relief Appeal. In the controversy in the Melbourne "Age" referred to above. a Left Wing supporter let the cat out of the bag by writing: "The Spanish Relief Committee has never pretended to he completely non-partisan." No one has any objection to Australiim Communists raising funds to assist destitute Communists in Spain, but it is plainly hypocritical and dishonest for the Spanish Relief Committee to pose as an impartial organisation when it is plainly partisan, political, and sectarian.
Red Tricks at Home and Abroad
R ecent events abroad have been fraught with some sig. niticance for Communism. In Russia the inevitable moral results of the system are becoming evident. Cables announce, yet a further "purge,- which means that more high officials will fall victims to t he suspicion and ruthlessness of the supreme official. In Pugland at length there is evidence of an awakening to the Red peril. The secretary-general of the Transport Workers has called for the support of every member to drive out .of the ranks Communists seeking to undermine the structure of trade unionism. This has a moral for Australia. for here Communist agents have endeavoured. and ill many instances succeeded, in securing key unions, especially in those of the transport workers. positions in Most importantly. in Spain Senor Caballero. the "Spanish Lcnin." has been unable to control his anarchist allies ,and has had to resign. Though there tins been a re-shuffle, the new Cabinet is even more Red than its predecessor. In discussing this matter, the "Daily News," with its customary humorous touch, remarked in a leading article, that, because the new Cabinet represents all shades of Left opinion (except the Anarchists and the trade unions). "anv attempt to characterise the Spanish War as a

struggle between CoMmunism and Fascism is misleading." We would take this opportunity of reminding the "Daily News" that this represents a complete change of front. Its readers have been constantly assured up to the present that the struggle was one of Fascist rebels with democrats. Surely our journalists are rather splitting hairs when they try to decide how many shades of pink make red! The position locally indicates that the Communist party is about to attempt impenetration of the State School Teachers' Union, as usual through its affiliated organisations. A commencement was made when members of the union were recently addressed by a member of the Movement against War and Fascism the best known of the Communist subsidiaries. This is to be followed at the August Conference by the proposal to form a "peace" movetnent among teachers. In Labour ranks at the University there is sympathy for the Spanish Relief Committee, while in Adelaide a prominent Labour man is to be disciplined by the party because he dared to dissociate himself from the same organisation. Meantime another propagandist play, "Where's that bomb?" is in course of rehearsal. Yet there are found Catholics who claim that Communism is not growing. and that the Catholic Press has been stampeded into a panic. It will be unspeakable if, in the aftermath. we have to confess that we know not "the time of our visitation."

Browne, 74 Edmund-street, East Fremantle, without delay. "In the midst of so many attacks on Christian ideals, we Catholics will be second to none in efforts to unhold the principles of order and good Christian living." This statement formed part of a message from the Pope read by the Papal Envoy at a special service at Westminster Cathedral on Sunday last. The Papal Envoy gave the Apostolic Blessing, and then read the message from the Pope, who declared that to be a good Catholic was to be a good loyal citizen, serving the country and the Empire.

CHESTERTON CLUB ABSORBING LECTURE BY DR. M. KELLY. The rooms of the Chesterton at 36 Pier-street, were taxed to capacity on Wednesday night. when Dr. Michael Kelly, of Bunbury, delivered a most informative lecture on the recent Papal Encyclical, c`Divini Redemptoris." Dr. V. H. Webster was in the chair and welcomed the guest of After the lecture, Rev. the evening. Father A. Johnston moved a vote 0:: thanks ,/o the lecturer, which was carried with acclamation. Dr. Kelly suitably responded. The lecturer commenced by pointing out the striking fact that the Pope, an old man, recently risen from what wa-s- considered his death-bed, and without any physical or teniporal power, had within five weeks issued stern denunciations of the two strong. est powers in the world—atheistical Communism and German National Socialism. Dr. Kelly proceeded to contrast and compare the two systems. Speaking of Communism, the lecturer exposed the astonishingly varied propagandist tactics employed, quoting freely from the recent encyclical. He concluded by 'urging members of the Club to permit no lie in the Press or in conversation to pass unnoticed, ea pecially on that focal point of .present Communist endeavour—the Spanish Civil War. On Friday next, the 28th. inst., the Chesterton Club will be addressed, by Father Wilfrid Ryan, S.J. .A bridge evening, organised by the ladies of the Club, will be held at 36 Pier-street, on June 8, at 8 p.m. Tables may be bookedl by ringing B9817.

His Grace Administers Confirmation at Rosalie Sixty-Nine Children Keceive the Sacrament On Sunday, May 16—Pentecost Sunday—at 7.30 p.m., His Grace Archbishop Prendiville administered the Sacrament of Confirmation to sixty-nine children of the parish of Rosalie. It was His Grace's first official visit to the newly-formed parish; new in the sense that it is now officially recognised and established as a separate parish and a growing centre of Catholicity with all the responsibilities of a parish, but old in the sense of many pleasant Catholic recollections and associations. Rosalie was formerly part of the Subiaco parish, indeed it is somewhat difficult even yet for a number of faithful and loyal Catholics to realise that it is now an independent and sturdy little parish, itself ready and willing to shoulder its obligations and to accept its responsibilities. It is new, too, in the sense that it has got a new priest of its own, but one who has hosts of old friends in the country districts, where he laboured in the Lord's v ineyard for many a year. It w as Aunt Bessy. I think, who first drew attention to the fact that "he had gone to the city. its ln-at and its labours to share." all)e Busbies of Yarloop and the parts around Wagin and katan:ling have known him. Sixty-nine children were presented for Confirmation—thirtyix and thirty-three boys. Very sweet. devotional and innocent they all looked—the boys in neat serviceable suits, and the girls in white with the customary wreath and veil. All of them proudly wore their Confirmation medals—a silver gleam on a flash o f red. A fter a long and tiring day at the Cathedral, His Grace arrived punctually at 7.20 p.m., and marched up the aisle of the church which does duty as a school every day of the week. He was waited on by Rev. Father Doddy, who attended on him during the sacred ceremony. Mr. Forristal ,an old and faithful parishioner, acted as sponsor for the boys, whilst Mrs . Stubbs, an equally faithful parishioner and worker for the Church did a like service for the girls. Whilst the Confirmation was being administered, the newly-formed choir sang. the "Veni Creator Spiritus" in an exceptionally devotional manner. His Grace Speaks to the Children. His Grace then addressed the newly confirmed children, and in a touching sermon explained very clearly the Sacrament of Confirmation and its effects. Petitecnst Sunday was iiideed a fitting day to receive that Sacrament; it was the anniversary day of that fi rst Confirmation, when the Holy t ;host descended upon the -Apostles in the form of tongues of fire, many, many years ago. Miraculous effects followed that first miracles Confirmation — these were necessary in the beginning to establish and nurture the infant Church. and to impress upon a pagan world the Divinity of its authorised origin. As duly Archbishop. claiming succession from these same Apostles. he came amongst them that night to confer the self -same Sacrament upon the children of Rosalie. Confirmation made them strong and perfoct Christians. unafraid to profess and proclaim their Faith. bestowing upon them the seven gifts of the Holy Ghost.
sending them forth to fight the battle of life, confirmed in the Faith of Christ and the Apostles; enabling them to be loyal and true to the end. He 'referred to the trials and temptations they would encounter from a three-fold source in after life—the world, the flesh, and the devil. The world with all its glittering amusements and varied attractions; its wealth and its display and its love of pleasure and ease; the flesh with its sensual allurements referred to by the great St. Paul ; and the devil. whose principal delight was the destruction of the souls of men. He encouraged them to make frequent use of the weapons which our Divine Lord had provided for them, namely, prayer and the frequent reception of the Sacraments. Then, orL bended knees, the children made fervent and public profession of their Faith. repeating after His Grace the words of the Our Father, the Hail Mary, and the Apostles' Creed. Afterwards the children were asked to take the pledge to abstain from intoxicating drink till they were twenty-one, by which time their characters would be su ffi ciently develope d to enable them to realise the wisdom of total abstinence for life. To the Parishioners. Addressing the older members of the congregation, His Grace congratulated them on the good reports he had been hearing about them. and on the earnestness with which they were developing into . what would be a splendid suburban parish. He had given them a priest of their own as soon as it was possible for him to do so, a first-class organiser. with a record of wellnigh a quarter of a century of earnest and successful work in t he Archdiocese to his credit. With their goodwill and cooperation he could visualise a splendid parish in the near future, complete with parochial schools, convent, presbytery and church. All their parish priest asked was their co-operation ; without that it would be impossible to do anything. In a very short time, he hoped, please God, to be amongst them again to lay the foundation stone of their new church on the block of land they had already acquired for that purpose. Their new presbytery, recently acquired. had been renovated throughout, and was furnished with taste and discrimination, and was comfortable without being luxurious. He had left that entirely to the parish priest, who has unerring taste in these matters. It was indeed a credit to the parish and a suitable and convenient home. Self-Sacrifice of Teaching Sisters. His Grace then referred to the splendid ‘vork done for the children for many years by the Sisters of Mercy, who travelled in and out every day from Victoria Without any earthly Square. reward these refined and cultured ladies had given of their best in the interests of the children of the parish. The amount of money spent in fares alone to and from their Convent at Victoria Square throughout all the long years had reached the colossal sum of What a beautiful little £ 2.000! convent could be had in Rosalie itself for that amount! He hoped the day would soon arrive when that ideal would become a They were at present reality.
having additions made to the parochial school—these were absolutely necessary and he was very pleased to learn that they were making a very substantial effort to meet the cost of the undertaking. His Grace then referred briefly to the new Association formed that day, and which had been explained to them at the morning's Masses. He encouraged them to study the movement thoroughly, and help it along by every means in their power. Then, imparting his blessing, he wished them every grace and blessing from Almighty God—the Giver of all good gifts. The function then closed with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. After a long and tiring day. His Grace mote-ed home at 9.30 p.m. A special word of gratitude is appended to the good Sisters and the children who decorated the altar so beautifully, also to the many kind ladies who donated flowers to breathe their fragrance around the King of Kings, our dear Lord in the Sacrament of the Blessed Eucharist, and to grace by their radiant loveliness a holy and a happy scene which \vill live long- in the memories of the children of Rosalie. The Children of Mary will hold their monthly Communion on Sunday. May 23, and in the afternoon there will be a general meeting, followed by Benediction. It is of interest to note that the builders have got a good start on the foundations for the new school Euchre Parties. The weekly party held in the school hall on Thursday evening, 6th. inst., was again well patronised, and the prize money was shared by the Rev. Father Doddy and Mr. R. Hall, who both won an equal number of games. A fter the competition the committee served a very nice supper. ..- It is noted that there is now a sprinkling of young people attending these functions, and as they appear to enjoy themselves, we hope to see their numbers rapidly increase.
St. Brigid's, West Perth The fortnightly dance, conducted by the Children of Mary, was held in the Parish Hall on Wednesday, May 12, and took the form of a Coronation Carnival—lucky spot and streamer dances were a feature of the evening. The popularity of these dances is undisputed, judging by the crowds that come from far and near to be present at them. The floor is fast, the crowd select, and the supper excellent. We hope to see all our old friends and a few more at our next big night, Wednesday-, May 26. The weekly euchre party, held in the Parish Hall every Friday evening, is a huge success. The prizes are good, so come along on Friday next and spend an enjoyable evening. The prize packet has again commenced and cards have been distribut ed at the church door. We hope all 'parishioners will do their part by taking a card and filling it. If you cannot take a card at least give your name to one of the numerous collectors, who will be only too glad to explain the c onditions of the prize packet, and by doing this you will be helping to do your share in the parish activities.

The weekly dance, held on Tuesday, 11th. inst., in St. Mary's Hall, was once again highly successful. A young lady at one of the intervals expressed to me her surprise and astonishment at the "magnificent hall,- the "perfect floor,- the "excellent orchestra.' She had been "to them all in the city," but this was the best of them all-a really beautiful dance and in future she was going to no other. She was a stranger, who had come from afar, and hers is only one of the many tributes paid to our weekly dance. The spot dances were won by Mr. Mills and Miss Catlin and Mr. Burns and Miss Marriot. Trams 15 and 16 bring you to the door of St. Mary's. The ticket costs only 1/6 (no tax). The weekly euchre, played in the lesser hall while the dance was on, passed off in a very genial atmosphere. There was a good attendance. Twelve games were played, Mrs. Jenningsan old patron--with eleven games, won the first prize of ./3. while Mr J. Malone won the prize of El for the six selected games.

" "Xavier Wins
The famed "Head of the River" Victorian Public contest of the Schools was won on Friday by Xavier College by two lengths, from Wesley, with Melbourne Grammar third, a length away. The time was 5min. 36,2-5sec., and the crews had to battle against a strong head wind. Congratulations to Xavier College. Old Xaverians in this State were particularly pleased when the news came through, for the win was somewhat unexpected. It was the 70th. contest, and it was Xavier's third win—the title, it may be seen, takes some winning, In 1901 the race was rowed for the first time in "Eights." The actual origin of the race is of great interest. Soon after the Melbourne Regatta in 1868, some of the boys of Scotch College and Melbourne Grammar School, fired with the ambition to become oarsmen, had taken up rowing on the Yarra. Then sprang up a rivalry, and one morning—June 17, 186S—two boys arrived from Scotch Then at Grammar's headquarters. handed in this letter: "Dear Sirs,-1 am requested lw the Scotch College Rowing Club to challenge You to a friendly four-oar gig race, 'subject to such conditions as are agreed upon.—Yours, "JOHN C. FIELD." The healthy challenge was accepted, and from that small beginning, came the great event that we know to-day. It is interesting to note that Xavier, this year's winners, have figured in the In 1919 only dead-heats on record. they rowed a dead-heat in the final, and in the row-off Scotch won by a canvas, the result being in doubt until the last stroke. In 1922 Xavier dead-heated with Scotch in their heat, but did not rerow it and did not compete in the final. eeee eteee eeee e ee e eee
LONG HITTING AT GOLF When golfers foregather at the 19th, hole, a fruitful source of discussion is long hitting. I listened in to such a discussion recently. One told of an Englishman by name of 'Bliss, who belted a ball a-couple of furlongs! But he was reminded of one who knew of the circumstances that it was on hard So that big ground and down hill. hit was discounted. -They spoke of one Vernon Hayes, who at Royal Wimbledon (England), hit a ball 420 yards.' He used a 171oz. His next driVe driver for the job. was 310 yards. In 1913 W. McNaCounty Lahinch, mara, "pro.," at Clare, drove a record distance for that course of 400 yards. But in practically all these hits it was one of three things, or a corn bination of them ,that made them over lengthy—fast ground, down grade, wind. It is generally agreed that the man who can drive consistently 250 yards in normal conditions of turf and weather, can be labelled "a long hitter" --and one who occasionally passes the 300 yard mark is 'a mighty smiter, :Pi.
Hockey A Win for St. Ildephonsus, A good even game was witnessed between this pair, with "Saints" winning by the odd goal-3-2. The best play. er for the winners was Leo Wood, who hit two goals, and he received valuable support from Kinsella and Best, while T urner, Strudwick and Beames bat. tied hard for Perth to avert defeat. It was an A2 Grade game, University Defeats Christians. In the Reserve Grade there was very little between 'Varsity and Christians, the win going to the students-2-1. Marshall and Barden goaled for 'Varsity ,and Conroy secured Christians' lone goal. B1 GRADE.—St. Ildephonsus' Draw. "Saints" and Cricketers figured in a hard game—a scoreless draw. Pratt, Benson and Yates were the best for " Saints." with Robinson and Flower the pick of Cricketers.

Tennis
7he Racing Game
The Davis Cup. Tennis enthusiasts generally, but more especially Australians and Americans ,are looking forward to - the Davis Cup tie between our men and those of the U.S.A. The winner will meet the winner of the American Zone, and that winner will play in the challenge tie, against Britain. Almost universallv it is considered that the winner of the America4Anstralia match will win the Davis Cup. Last week I pointed out that it would be unwise to take too much for granted. The Americans. Donald Budge will be the spearhead in attack of the American team. He is an out-and-out champion, and I will be surprised to hear of his losing a single in the forthcoming match. Recall that he has already beaten Australia's No. 1, Quist, on t o occasions, On paper it certainly appears that Donald Budge will defeat both Quist and McGrath. If that happens Australia must win both of the other singles and the doubles. Frank Parker played very well against the Japanese when he defeated Yamagishi in straight sets. He will be a hard one to beat, but Australia's men have good prospects of doing so. It may be that the American selectors cvill prefer "Bitsy" Grant, who was not available for the match against the Japanese, to Parker, and if that happens Australia's job will not be any easier. As it was on the last quest for the Cup, the Doubles will most likely decide the issue. And here only the super-optimist feels cheerful when summing up -Australia's prospects. Here's where America has it on us— elle will put on the court a tried pair in Don Budge and Gene Mako. Our pair will be Crawford and Quist. This pair played well against Mexico, but "believe it not," that was their first appearance in combination since the last Davis Cup! It seems incredlible, hut it is a fact. That's why I think America as a team is better equipped than Australia.
Headquarters on Saturday. The W.A.T.C. will do the honours at A scot on Saturday with an attractive Autumn meeting programme. Here's a quick run through the programme with a very early prediction for each event: Roebourne Hurdles.—Tom Deane should win with Enaed. Rockingham Handicap.—Aguenor. For the Carnac Handicap nothing appeals more than Swanboy, while First Wave strikes us as likely to take the stake in the Flinders Handicap, For the Rottnest Handicap Old Story, a non-starter last week, gets our vote, and the programme will conclude with a win for Modulus in the Australind Handicap.
The Rugby Game Followers of the Rugby Union game are going through an eventful season. T wo highlights are—the .match against the Springboks on Monday, May 31, at the W.A.C.A., and the tour of the Eastern States, which will take place during August. • Those, from whom the State team to meet the "Springboks" will be selected have been announced and though there are some who have queried the selectors' wisdom, most will agree that they have done their work well. All who desire to see champions in action should make a point of watching the Springboks on Monday, May 31, at the W.A.C.A, Ground. A Band of Champions. These "Springboks"—the experts say —are the world's champions. They are a team of giants, with 13 of them 6ft. or over. The forwards are the heftiest of their kind ever to represent a country in the Rugby Union game. Their main objective is to play Australia and New Zealand, hut as it will be their first appearnce when they play in Perth, locals have something on our Eastern States' friends. They will play their first Test v. Australia at Sydney, on June 26; and the second at Sydney on July 17, after which they will leave for New Zealand, where their Tests with the Al! Blacks should be classics. The first "Sprinkbok" team visited Australia in 1921.

The second Sunday of May was observed in the usual way by the members of the Holy Name Society. There was the general Communion at the seven o'clock Mass, when the men approached the altar rails in a body. The men again attended in their guilds at the evening devotions, at which the Administrator, Rev. Father Kennedy, officiated. After the evening devotions an adjournment was made to the "Hall," when the members were again addressed by Rev. Father Kennedy, who informed them he had important work for them to do, but first they must increase the numbers in the guilds. The Spiritual Director then made reference to the objects of the Society, and informed the members that their first duty was good example at all times and in all places. Next Holy Name Sunday the address will deal with the necessity of monthly Confession and Communion. The next business was the reorganisation of the guilds, and from now . on members would be in guilds according to the districts where they resided. This would facilitate the work of the prefects, who were responsible to some extent for the attendances. Owing to the number in the Central Block Guild, a new prefect, Mr. F. Steele, was appointed to relieve some of the work of Mr. E. G. Flanagan.
