And every parent who can reply "yes" has the right to demand that the expenses be defrayed from the public funds to which all contribute for the purpose. Sectional Interests.

The onus is on Catholics to show that their sectional interest can be identified with the public interest. W e ask to be allowed to do so The public interest is that there should be available to every child a sound primary education, and that no hindrance of poverty, creed, or race should bar his way to it. No one could wish for a better statement of the public interest. This has been achieved by adhering to the principle that primary education should be free, and secular. Will the That is not true. "Courier-Mail" say that a sound primary education is not available in Catholic schools because the curriculum there is not merely secular? And how does the "Courier-Mail" make it out that the principle of free primary education has been adhered to. when the primary education given to Catholic children is not free?

Land Monopoly Must Go Capitalist Theory of Property Unsound HE Australian colonies were, at first, an attractive field for the investment of British capital. but very early in the history of this country it was found difficult to exploit labour on the same lines as in the British Isles. The Swan River Colony was a painful demonstration of this fact. Adventurous British capitalists obtained grants of land here and came out with boatloads of plant and servants, only to find that the latter soon deserted them and broke contracts in order to work for others at higher wages, or took up land for themselves.

The Spanish Nationalists ha ve agreed to take the new Portuguese Corporative State as a model for the new Spain, and have actually begun to put similar principles into effect in those parts of the country under their control. They are encouraged in this because Portugal's success has become an established fact and because the principles are explicitly taken from the Papal Encyclicals.

Now, Christian Corporativism is founded on fundamentally diiferent principles. The two most vital principles were formulated in the "Quadragesimo Anno." The first is: "Of its very nature. the true aim of all social activHAY STREET (near Sandover's). also MURRAY ity should be to help individual STREET (near Ahern's). members of the social body. but never to destroy or absorb them."

the State. All are indispensable for healthy social life just as the stomach, the heart, the head, and the other organs are necessary for healthy bdaily life. But each organ must have a certain degree of independence in acting. It would never do for the head to undertake the work of digesting the food or pumping the blood. Similarly, the 3151e must not take on itself the work of the other societies, but, like the head, may direct and co-ordinate the other societies in their activities. That is the limit of its competence. Two points emerge from this The first is that the family comes to be regarded as the proto-type of the occupational society. It is, as Salazar expresses it, "the basis, the irreducible social cell, the original care of the parish, of the municipality, and consequently of the nation." The second is that the occupations are independent bodies, and which, though under the protection of the government, work out the economic salvation of their members without reference to politics. They are democratic institutions because their local and national councils are constituted by the face vote of the individual members, and they are compatible with democratic parliamentary government. Occupational unions are not mere State executive bodies, and therefore occupational unions can exist Under Any Form of Government • —dictatorial, republican, tnonarchic or democratic, whereas Fascist Corporations can only exist( under Fascist Dictatorship and - the Fascist conception of the omnipotence of the State. Salazar had to impose corporativism to a certain extent in order to save his country from ruin. In an extreme crisis he had to establish a framework of occupational unions. complete and ordered in every detail. But he would be the first to recognise the advantages of voluntary corporativism. and he has no illusion as to the dangers of.dictatorship. He has again and again w arned his countrymen that his intervention will prove unavailing if the life of the new State is to rest on the power of, or the devotion to. one man. The ideas with which he has inspired them must become enshrined in their social order, their political institutions, if they are to be perpetuated. The disadvantages of a dictated corporativism are merely temporary. and due to the necessity of finding a quick remedy for a desperate disease. But the remedy is Founded on Solid Christian Principles drawn from Papal teaching, and with the continued enlightenment of the Portuguese people will assuredly work in the end for good. The main point is clear. The new National Spain may bear some external and superficial resemblances to the Fascists State. hut the likeness will only he skin deep. The essentials and foundation will he Catholic and Spanish.

He says something which causes his Italian hearers to burst into happy laughter, thereby conveying to his audience that there is no sin in smiling and being happy. Then he strikes a more serious note and goes on, welcoming his people, bidding them be strong, bidding them take comfort in the undying warmth of the faith of their fathers. The voice is not the voice of a man stricken in health. It never falters, and frequently echoes with all the strength and fervor of youth. A little gesture here indicates emphasis, another reassurance, another enthusiasm. What cannot be understood in words is so conveyed by the personality of the speaker that his hearers who cannot follow with their ears follow with their eyes.

Nothing describes him more intimately, more accurately, more faithfully than that! Here we are in the presence of the Holy Father! The Holy Father is speaking to his children! For I am sure we all felt as little children in the sight of God and God's Vicar on Earth. It would have been a strain for anyone to speak for twenty minutes in the heat in that crowded chamber as His Holiness spoke that day. But he seemed to he above physical weakness and his concluding phrases were stronger than his opening sentence.

The Congress Badge is becoming more conspicuous in the public streets. trams and trains, hut there are still a very large number available for those desiring to purchase them and help defray eFpenses that such a Congress will entail. The motto of every Catholic should be: "Obtain and wear the Badge." The Missionary Exhibition to be held during the Congress, from present indications, should he a wonderful one. It will show what great work is being done tiy the priests, nuns and brothers amongst the various Foreign Missions in the world.

All Hallows' Church, Boulder, on August 30, was the scene of one 01 the prettiest weddings yet seen there. when Kathleen, third daughter of Mr and Mrs. M. Hallinan, of Boulder, was married to Richard, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. Slater, also or Boulder. Rev. Father Brennan officiated at the ceremony, which was celebrated with Nuptial Mass, the bride's brother Michael serving at the altar. The bride made a charming picture as she entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. Tom Hallinan, who subsequently gave her away. Her beautiful white satin wedding gown was fashioned on French tunic lines, with long, graceful train. Over this fiell a beautifully embroidered silk tulle veil, caught in position with a halo of tiny rosebuds and silver leaves. A sheaf of white lilies completed a charming toilet. The bride was attended by her two sisters, May and Elizabeth, who wore strikingly pretty contrasting frocks of pink and blue silk net over satin; their head dresses being N;eile t tes held in place by pink and blue roses to tone. They carried bouquets of pink and blue roses. Little Cecile Milner was a dainty train bearer, (rocked in old gold ruched taffeta, with golden lace cap, and carrying • a basket of pink roses. Mr H. Slater (brother of the bridegroom) acted as best man, and Mr, C. Button was groomsman. A most impressive and inspiring feature of the ceremony was the Children • of Mary guard of honour, and the placing of the bride's blue cloak on Our Lady's Altar by the president of t he society (Miss Noreen Fitzgerald). After the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents, where only relatives and intirnate friends were present. The bride's mother (Mrs, Hallinan), wearing a smart navy blue ensemble, with hat to tone, received the guests, assisted by Mrs. Slater (the bridegroom's mother), who wore a smart grey costume. After the usual toasts had been honoured, and numerous con gratulatory telegrams read, the happcouple left by car for their hone.: moon. The bride travelled in a chic brown floral redingote frock wit green hat and matching accessories, Mr. and Mrs. R. Slater have now tak en up residence at their home in tenoom-street. Boulder.
Obituary THE LATE MR. JOHN YOUNG. T he sudden and sad ;U.SS caused by the death of John Young, at the early age of 23, an only son and an "old boy- of C.B.C., Perth, also late school teacher of Collie High School. has been a heartfelt shock to his bereaved parents, sisters, relatives and friends. John was very highly esteemed by all whu knew him, and he gave his life --as he lived it—ever ready to len`d a helping hand. He was an exemplary Catholic and passed from this world wearing his holy medals and badges, which were found pinned against his heart when taken. The family are sincerely grateful to the Sisters of the Presentation Convents at Collie and Mosman's Bay for t heir consoling accounts of small incidents in the life of the deceased. They are also sincerely grateful to the Sisters of the Sacred Heart for their lovely tribute in the form of a silver crucifix, which was placed on his coffin. The Sisters of Mercy, Bassendean, t hey also wish to thank for their cornforting expressions of sympathy: also Rev. Father O'Gorman, of Bassendean, for same. John's remains were brought to the metropolis for the last rites. Requiem Mass was celebrated both at St. Brigid's, Collie, and St. Mary's, Highgate, and from the latter the funeral proceeded to Karrakatta. Six of his C.B.C. pals acted as pall-bearers, and amid his bereaved relatives and a wide circle of friends his remains were laid t o rest. Rev, Father Downey, who was a close friend of John's, journeyed from Collie to be present, and to give to his sorrowing family first hand infor. mation, and to him Mr. and Mrs. Young and daughters are sincerely grateful. To his many friends they also wish to extend heartfelt thanks for 1:ind messages. R.I.P.

Who Are The Radicals?
' !-

r.;
. The glib tongue of •Communism is forever repeating that the "reactionary Roman Hierarchy" is aiding and abetting the forces ‘rhich make for war and Fascism One may pass lightly oyei the last tag, remembering the heroic stand the German Hierarchy is making against the pagan ideology of National Socialism, and how the Cardinal Archbishop of Malines swung the political pendulum against Degrelle. It is becoming evident that even a lie grows stale through too frequent repetition._ But when Communism accuses the Catholic Hierarchy of being reactionary, it makes a joke at its own expense. For. whatever else may be claimed for Communism, no stretch of the imagination can make it appeal progressive. It is reactionary in the highest historical sense. It strives to put the clock back two thousand years. It demands a restoration of social security through the slavery of the masses on one side and Caesarism on the other. One may think it a good thing to wipe out religion. But it is not new, and it is not progressive. For Nero attempted to wipe out Christianity. and whatever may be adversely alleged about the present condition of Christianity, it is at least certain that Nero is very dead. • • • The social dilemma really demands a reply to the question: What is the criterion of progress? Communism, in its antiquated way, finds the measure of man's liberty in free bread and circuses, as the Romans did. But progress from the Christian angle postulates a spiritual thing called freedom. And collective ownership is not freedom but a barbaric revival of mass slavery under bureaucracy. In its ultimate aspect nothing could be flatter than a logically developed Communism. It would regimentate human personality and human activity to an even greater degree than the industrialised order of capitalistic society today. It is the Christian order alone that is radical in the true sense of piercing to the root of the problem. Nothing can be conceived more revolutionary than the programme of social reconstruction outlined by Popes Leo XIIr. and Pius XT. Instead of demanding merely a c hange of the form of tyranny as does Communism, the Papal plan demands, firstly, a change of heart and of a man's attitude to life. and then in practice the simple life secured through private property and contentment with a decent sufficiency for all. • In the field of doctrine nothing is more exciting than orthodoxy. Regarding the social order nothing is more revolutionary than social justice. That is precisely why the Papal encyclicals have gone unheeded by large numbers of Catholics. They are too drastid for the mediocre. Whenever one listens to a Communist orator, one is compelled by the fact that he agitates not for a different order. but for a patching of the existing one. He does not demand property for the worker. which.would make him economically free, but only a betterment of wages and conditions in his present servile condition. To accomplish this, the Communist would have a revolution in blood, so that ultimately Stalin may sit- pn the throne of Rothschild. So we say that Communism is not radical, and not even revolutionary. It is Capitalism's best ally, because it tends only to improve conditions within the present system, and so make the worker content with it. Catholicism is the true radicalism. It foments in the worker the terrible desire to he a man and therefore free, as becomes his nature. How strange an opium is religion!
An Election Moral A few months ago it seemed certain that Labour would triumph at the next elections. During the same period the Catholik. Press repeatedly warned Labour of the Red poison which was infiltrating the movement. Labour, in its programme of external defence, and in its relation to international affairs, now favours a policy of isolation. But during the past year it blundered clumsily into the Spanish embroglio. was duped by the Reds, and came out in open sympathy with the Muscovite regime of Valencia. As the elections drew near the Communist Party announce its intention of backing Labour. The latter endeavoured frantically to disown the unsought and unwelcome ally. But, though there was absolutely no official connection between the parties, the damage was done. The public could not be blamed if it anticipated a consistent attitude towards Communism at home as in Spain. There is no reasonable doubt that Labour was beaten at the polls not by the Nationalists, but by the Communists. • • In its endeavour to win the working masses of Australia Communism has used the one trick that could have worked. It appealed to democracy, and attempted to insinuate itself, however improbably, as the champion of democracy. But the one unmistakable moral of the elections just past should be to show Com-
Saturday October 30. 1937.
munism to the worker as the arch-enemy of democracy and of working class interests. Communism must have known that its open support of Labour would do the movement no good at the polls. The repeated rejection of its Peace overtures and of the United Front, has shown Communism clearly enough that it has no general support or sympathy in Australia. Yet, knowing this, it plunged into the campaign, ostensibly on the side of Labour, but very surely blighting its prospects of victory. The Labour Party, too, should have learned its lesson. It is not enough to reject Marxism at election time. There is need of a thoroughgoing purge of the Communist virus from its ranks, so that at the next elections it may be able to say to the Australian public: cast out our enemies and yours three years ago."
Flirtation An extraordinary news item was cabled from London during the week, which described how a Glasgow girl was fined in the Irish Free State for kissing a local youth on church property. The official charge was "committing an act of impropriety in a public place." To our sophisticated and largely pagan community, the whole business sounds rather ridiculous. But there is a great deal which Catholics, in their charity, might have said about flirtation and have not said. From a false sense of tolerance Catholics have not insisted that, just as one of the secondary purposes of marriage is to quiet concupiscence, so the primary use of flirtation is to-.inflame it. Nobody who has regard for the truth can deny that prolonged and impassioned embrace is the surest method of encouraging lust. The modern practices of "petting" and "necking" are nothing more or less than euphemisms for the preliminaries to sexual promiscuity. It cannot be gainsaid that even in the few innocent cases of flirtation, the practice makes for insta bility in marriage. Christians still draw a well defined distinction And one of the chief natural factors oi between love and lust. love which make for happiness both in and out of the marriage s tate is self-control.

A very large congregation filled the Cathedral, and Very Rev. Father Walsh, C.SS.R., preached the closing sermon on the subject of "Perseverance.- The preacher stressed the importance and necessity of prayer as a means to persevering in grace, and exhorted his listeners to be faithful to the good resolutions they had made during the Mission. After imparting the Papal Blessing, Father Walsh, on his own behalf and on behalf of Father McLoughlin and Father Cahill. expressed his appreciation of the magnificent re, sponse of the people during the two weeks of the Mission. both for the morning Masses and lectures, and for the evening devotions. He expressed his gratitude to His Grace the Archbishop and to the Administrator. Very Rev. Dr. Kennedy, for their co-operation and hospitality, and thanked the priests of the Cathedral Staff for the help given them.

Among the passengers who passed through Kalgoorlie by the mail 'plane on Friday last was Rev. Father Fahy, S.J., Provincial of the Society of Jesus in Australia. Father Fahy had visited Perth in connection with the purchase of a property for the establishment of a Jesuit College in Perth, which College will be opened for students at the beginning of the second term in May, 1938. A full report of the opening ceremonies of the St. Joseph's Convent, Kalgoorlie, will appear in our next issue. The Late Mr. S. J. Hill. The news that Mr. Samuel Joseph Hill, so well known on these 'Fields, had passed away on the afternoon of October 15, cast a deep gloom over the The news of Mr. Hill's community. death was the first intimation to many of his illness, which was of very short duration, and this made the shock the greater, for it was only a few days previously that he seemed in his usual good health and spirits. It was at Heathcote, Bendigo, that Mr- Hill was born in 1868. As a young man of 27 he came to these 'Fields in the boom years, and after some years in the back country he finally settled Not for long did he in Kalgoorlie. follow his blacksmith's trade, for, upward of a quartet of a century ago, did he join the A.M.P. Society, whose best known industrial agent he was. On the occasion of his retirement from their service less than a year ago, he was the recipient of many tributes of esteem from the managerial staff in the East and West, as also from the field agents with whom he was ever popular, and by whom he was highly respected. One of the •younger managers. referring to Mr. Hilt on one no casion, remarked that it was his wish that when his turn to retire came he could do so with "as splendid a record as, 'Sam's.'" The deceased was an exemplary and devout Catholic, and it must ever re. main a solace to his sorrowing relatives that the last Sacraments of our Iloly Church culminated a life devout and useful in the cause of Catholicity. lie figures prominently in the early history of St. Mary'4, and his was one of the first marriages in St, Mary's, But it is as a Hibernian that S. J. Hill will be longest remembered. To the cause of the H.A.C.B.S. he was eve, loyal, and in. its interests no effort was too much. For 27 years he was its Goldfields secretary, and having previously been president and treasurer. On many occasions he had represent.
ed the Kalgoorlie branch in Perth, and on several occasions the State_ in the East. To its welfare he was pledged. The men's Communion Breakfasts, which have been so successful during the recent fifteen years, were also the fruit of his organisation and untiring efforts. He was of the old school, who in matters Catholic did not count the cost—their numbers are He has bequeathed to now too few, his own in particular, and to Catholics in general, the remembrance or one who was ever a fine citizen, interested in the welfare of his land and fellow citizen, and who mingled with it true He gave unto Caesar Catholicity. the things that were Caesar's, and to God the things that were God's. The funeral cortege took place on October 16, and was largely attended. Rev. Father Kennedy, assisted by Rev. Father Brennan, read the burial service, and among those present were Mr. J. Casey, representing the National Board of the H.A.C.B.S. To the sorrowing widow and relatives "The Record" extends its most R.I.P. sincere sympathy.

In the Junior Boys' Srngles Championship, A. Davey beat Rodoreda. American Women Players. Australian women players are delighted that two Americans, Miss Dorothy Bundy, and Miss Dorothy Workman, are to Australia this summer. Vhen the proposed visit of the English women broke dovni, it seemed that Australia's women champions would be untried by players from overseas. In view of Australia's commitments abroad next year, this was to be regretted. The Australian women, who are of world standard, needed the visit of foreign players to give them edge for an overseas season. The American visitors will provide much stronger opposition than the English team, as proposed, would have been. One of the visitors, Miss Bundy, is the daughter of May G. Sutton, winner of two Wimbledon Singles, while her father, Thomas C. Bundy, was Doubles Champion of the United States, with Maurice McLaughlin in 1912-13-14- Last month Miss Bundy defeated last year's A merican Singles Champion, Miss Alice Marble. So that since she was ranked No. in U.S.A. last year, she made a big advance. Recently she defeated Miss Carolin Babcock, No. 5 last year. The other visitor is Miss Dorothy Workman, who is tt rising Californian player, is not quite so well known as Miss Bundy. The visitors should arrive in Australia in about a fortnight. It is not yet known whether they will play in Perth. , 41.41.-0410. .041. 4041.-411410-411.10. AN- .041r. 48.10.-.041,4011. 4110

Book That Reveals the Truth And Gives the Evidence. S the Spanish civil xvar the result of misgovernment in Spain; or is it the result of a planned attack upon Spain by International Communism? The answer is to be found in a brilliant work by G. M. Godden, "Conflict in Spain," just published by Burns and Oates at the low price of 1/6. Miss Godden shows first of all that the Communist attack upon The Spain is of long-standing. principles of the French Revolution were systematically put into practice there throughout the French Revolution. The people were corrupted. the governing authority was brought into contempt until Spain was a fit place for more drastic action after the success of the Russian . Revolution had given power and experience to the international masters of Communism. Evidence of Reds. The author is a first-rate -inthoritv on the methods of these men. She quotes from their own documents. from Lenin, from Dimitroy, from the reports of Communist Congresses, to prove that a state of anarchy in Spain was deliberately prepared. and that it was intended to unleash the Red Terror under the Popular Front Government. Four months before the outbreak of civil war, on April 20. 1936. the "Daily Worker" declared: "News from Spain gets bigger and better. . . . Nothing like it has been seen in Western Europe before." Franco's uprising forestalled the final plans of the Communists. but where they had power they systematically carried out their plans of destruction. Full accounts are given, the facts being taken from eye-witness accounts and from the files of such papers as "The Times." A final chapter gives equally illuminating descriptions on the restoration of good-feeling and order behind Franco's lines. This is a hook within the reach of many purses. Catholics should buy it. study it and use it constantly as an answer ts) the proimtzanda of Communism.

bEnded by their love of earthly goods that .He dwelt longer upon this suiject. Pointing up to the fast-living crows hovering over their heads, and .to the meadowlilies under their feet, God's creatures N‘iiich leave the care of, fodd and raiment all in His hands, He bade them not to let themselves be harassed and, as it were, tossed about by the troubles of life: "Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you a Kingdom. Sell all t hat you have and give alms. Make yourselves purses whictl w ear not out with time, a trea sure. which faileth not in the heavens; for where your treasure is there will your heart be also." And as we see the Lord \'as repeating to the Jews of Perea the same. lessons formerly given the Galileans; but now, as the time grew shorter, He added still more impressive Counsels—for His Mission was fast drawing to it: close. He wished them to be e ver vigilant, with loins upgrit, with lamps burning in their hands, like waiting-men who stand watching for their master. "I am come to kindle a - fire upon the earth." He said, "and what will I but that it blaze forth right quickly? I have a Baptism wherewith I am to be baptised; and how am I straitened until it be accomplished!" Thus, together with that immense longing to save the world. there was an accompanying host of sad forebodings; for the Christ knew what wild storms were gathering against His work and how, in a few short months. faith in His Name would be the occasion for bitter persecutions. "Think you," said He, "that I ant come to bring peace to earth? No, I tell you, rather the sword and separation. Henceforth, if there be five persons in one house, they shall be divided, three against two, and two against three: the father against the son and the son against his father, the mother against the daughter. and the daughter against her m other." The Hour of Salvation. \-0t the multitude listened to these words without comprehending them. without any inkling of the great struggles which Jesus was foretelling, and how close at hand was the Redemption of mankind. With something almost like bitterness, He reproached them for their apathy. Why, s ince they were so Clever at guessing by the cloud-rack on the Western horizon, or by noting the ,=outherly breezes whether the day was likely to be showery or 'warm—why could they not discern the drift of the times wherein they now were? Very soon it xvould be too late: the acceptable hour of salvation once slipped by, the Lord would become a rigorous creditor, who w ould deliver them over to the i ndQ-e: and the judge would cast m into the dungeon, from firs,,ce none goeth forth till after he has paid all unto the very last :hing.
Sunday, October 31. LAIXIXIXINIVI6X1X1XXXXXININWIMMIXHIM LEO XIII. ON DEATH When in 1897 Pope Leo \ 111, felt the shadow of death beginning to fall upon him, he wrote the following, con:.idered to he among the best of his poems: The Westering sun draws near his cloudy bed. Leo, ar,d gradual dai-kness veils thy head. The sluggish life blood in thy withered veins More slowly runs its c• ,tirse what then remains? Lo! Death is brandishing his fatal dart, And the grave yearns to shroud thy mortal part: Rut from its prison freed, the soul expands Exulting pinions to the enfranchised lands. • M y weary race is ion-1 touch the goal: Hear, Lord, the feeble panting of my soul! If it be worthy, Lord, Thy pitying breast Welcome it into everlasting rest! May I behold thee, Queen of earth and sky, Whose love enchained the demons lurking nigh, The path to Heaven: and freely shall I own 'Twas thy sweet care that gained my blissful crown!
THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK. Sundae: Deny yourself some little thing each day. Monday: Find something interesting in every disagreeable task. Tuesday: What people think of you is not half so important a!, ‘'hat VOU know about yourself Wednesday: Jesus Christ OM Lord and Saviour has taught us how to live, how to die, aid hpxy to conquer death. Thursday: God gives each 'me of us sufficient grace ever to know His holy will, and to lo it fully. —St. Ignatius. Friday: Anticilote 711e wants of others without waiting till you are asked. True charity teaches us how they may stand in need. Saturday: Many die suddenly and unprovidedly. for the Son of Man will come at the hour when He is not looked 1-23-3.

The leader of a Chinese Communist band has asked for a strange ransom. For the release of Father Leonardelli, a young Italian friar, he wants 500 army uniforms, 1,000 pairs of putties, 12 watches, five fountain pens— specifying they must be of German make-1,200 phials of antifever injections and 35 otlicr kinds of medicine. The unfortunate priest had been in China less than a year., when early this summer Reds invaded the district where he was working. Thinking to find safety in a port on_the Blue River he had crossed a lake, when he was seized by a band of Reds waiting for him on the shore and was carried off to their hide-out in the hills. , JAPS APOLOGISE FOR BOMBING OF MISSION. The Japanese Consul-General at Tientsin has replied to the protest by the British and French Consuls against the recent bombing of the Jesuit mission and hospital near Sienhsien, Central Hopei, by Japanese planes. The reply states that at the tittle of the raid the Japanese military authorities were not aware of the existence of this establishment, and gives assurance that the incident will not be repeated. The mission comprises a walled township and is situated several miles from Sienhsien. It houses some 2.000 persons. including about a dozen Canadian Sisters.

The ancient Franciscan monastery, at Faeeoni—founded by St. Francis of Assisi in the year 1222 and favoured through the centuries by Popes, Emperors, Kings and Princes—has been completely restored and given back to the Minor Conventuals. In the evil days of regalism in the Kingdom of Naples and later in 1860 under the Massoni Government, the friars were driven out and the historic building became almost deserted. The inhabitants of the surrounding country became interested in the monastery anl invited the frairs to return. @Prince Umberto of Piedmont took a special interest in having the monastery restored, and himself .performed the re-opening ceremony. A statue of St. Francis presented by Prince Umberto was placed over the entrance. New bells were blessed and rung, and the monastic life is once more flourishing.
