RUMBLEms., Catholic Old Testament Books A.M., West, N.S.W.: What translation of the Old Testament is the Catholic Canon taken from?
Wisdom, Eccleciasticus, Baruch, and the two Books of Macha bees; also parts of Esther and Daniel. These sections of the Old Testament Protestants declare to be apocryphal writings, not composed under divine inspiration. I am speaking, of course, of the attitude adopted by the early Protestants. Many even present-day Protestants, clerics, have so lost faith in the Bible that they scarcely believe any of it to be divinely inspired.
Religious Liberty T. Topher, Temora, N.S.W.: Does the Catholic Church teach religious liberty? Yes, in the sense that men should attain liberty from error and vice by accepting and fulfilling what God has taught and commanded; no, if by "religious liberty" you mean that man is at liberty to profess any religion As a Protestant, he pleases. you at least profess to believe
an individual fervent Christian will possess an interior spiritual liberty which no human power can break or destroy. Por it is given by the Spirit of God.

In the Irish Free State. surely a Catholic country, the Protestant schools are subsidised by the Government.

The temporal interests of the Pope's political State might easily conflict with the real interests of the Commonwealth. Mr Gibson is talking sheer nonsen-;e- Had he not published such a s tatement, one could not but believe that he himself knew it to be nonsense. Yet, for his consolation, let me tell him that, if the political interests of Vatican City really menaced the political interests of the Commonwealth, the Catholics of Australia would be obliged in conscience to defend Australia against Papal aggression. If the Pope sent two Cardinals and an altar boy in rowing boat to annex Aurtralia as a further temporal possession of the Iloly See, it would be the duty of Catholics in Australia to enlist at once in the Army, Navy, and Air Force, and concentrate on the task of repelling the attack even at the cost of their own lives. Is it not evident that such assertions of these of Mr Gibson are simply absurd! Silentt would be better than urging such bish as an argument againct ('at' schools. The Duty of Parsons, The times called ministers of the Presbyterian Church to the task of —. instructing their people as to what was at stake in the present dispute. It is to be hoped that they make a better job of it than the Moderator of the Queensland Assembly. They must instruct their people in r egard to the essential principles of Protestant Christianity. I wish the heads of all the Protestant Churches would club together, and give us a statement as to what the essential principles of Protestan! Christianity really are But, leavink; out all the other Churches, the Prc byterians themselves can't agree as to what those principles are.

So far as we Catholics in Australia are concerned, the Pope is head of a purely religious society known as the Catholic Church. By his control of Vatican City he is politically independent of Italy But no Catholic in the w orld, who does not reside in Vatican City, owes political allegiance to the Pope as a temporal ruler.

In these pages Mr. Idriess records his recent experiences while accompanying a Nor'-West Mounted Police miles Patrol for twelve hundred through the Kimberleys, north of the King Leopold Ranges—one of the a longest and most arduous patrols evei made in that wild region. .From his graphic pen the reader gets vivid pictures of life where, even today, every man practically dies "with his boots on." One meets the pioneer cattlemen, the settlers, the hunters, and the few grand white women who lead lonelier lives even than their menfolk. One listens to the tales of cattle spearers and native outlaws: and with the Patron hunts down the killers Mr, Idriess writes sympathetically and understandingly of the last of the Stone Age men, with whom he has lived and travelled for years. Tells of their struggle for existence, their loves and hates, their fierce vendettas.

What is This Lourdes. John Gibbons. This book, by Mr. John Gibbons, naturally reminds us of another work by this author called "Tramping to Lourdes." But readers would be wrong in imagining that there is any repetition in this book. The earlier book was the story of a pilgrimage. The present is inspired with the wish to tell quite simply and frankly the myriad impressions that have come to the writer at Lourdes in the course of many- visits. He writes for "the very ordinary man," who knows little or nothing about Lourdes, and who cares less. By that ordinary man, he means But to one who is not a Catholic. our shame it must be admitted that many Catholics must be placed in that

He does not argue aqut the facts or attempt to defend them. He states them and then leaves one with the impression that he says, "Well, there it is! What about it?" We hope that this book will reach the public for whom it is intended. Catholics would do the cause a good turn by spreading it among their friends, whilst there is much that they themselves will find of profit in these very readable pages.
HIS HOLINESS POPE PIUS XI. tgf:471- IXIVIr-4, 4X1111nt -,
The Pope in Politics. Teeling.
By
William
This recent publication purports to be a comprehensive study of the Life and Work of Pope Pius XI.. The author, named William Teeling, disavows any intention of discussing such matters as the religious influence of the Vatican and the teachings of the Catholic Church, but presents what to his mind is the position of the Vatican in politics and present-day international problems. Long before concluding the book, one doubts his bona. fides for undertaking the task the author set himself, and feels just as pleased that he did not attempt anything rioader. T HE BASILICA AT LOURDES— far-famed for the pilgrimage of which it is a centre, and for the extraordinary events that have occurred and still occur there.

Pray the Mass. By Rev. John T. McMahon, M.A., Ph.D., H.Dip.Ed. Pellegrini and Co. Price 6d. This revised third edition of Part I. is for use in Primary Schools, but it will also prove of great assistance to the devout Catholic. The author hopes that "Pray the Mass" max- be seen in the hands of the pupils during- Friday's lesson. He also hopes that the children may bring the book home so that the ideal of praying the Mass with the priest may be made known to par. ents and adults. This hook should be of assistance, too, to converts learning to know the Mass, the central act of ur H4v Faith
The sweeping assertions made are not representative of Catholic thought, especially as regards the Church and the New World, and at times one wonders to what persuasion the author belongs and just what are his objects in writing the book. The chapter on Australia is not particularly worthy of notice, except for the fact that it aids one to make an estimate of the book's value, and confirms impressions formed in earlier chapters. Mr. Teeling is hardly sufficiently unbiased or well informed to make a just estimate of the work of personalities much bigger than himself.
The Catholic Press is my voice! —Pope Pius XI.

Look upon it but as a mere human institution, look upon it but as a settled system of speech and action, emptied if you will of the unutterable significance that the Catholic believes to be at the heart of it, yet to the most detached student must the Mass appear as something hallowed and astounding—a thing of thrilling interest. It is so for the Catholic both because of what it is and because of its story through the centuries: It must be so for any man for at least the latter reason—a thing of vastest interest, if only for the centuries of years down which it has travelled and for the ten million changes of circumstance and association that have wheeled around it.

A widespread phenomenon scarcely ever adverted to is the enormous number of escapes which embarrass and, at times, jolt the joie de vivre. Some people think prisoners are the only things that escape.

U.S. KNIGHTS RENEW PLEDGE AGAINST REDS. Urge Government Again to Remonstrate With Mexican Rulers. Three thousand delegates attending the closing sessions of the supreme convention of the Knights of Columbus, at San .Antonio, Texas, resolved on behalf of the order's 500,000 members to continue their vigorous campaign against Communism and renewed their Protest against the persecution of the Church in Mexico. Communism, their resolution declared, "is foreign • to our Christian and patriotic ideals, dangerous to the temporal and eternal welfare of the people, and repugnant to the minds of all who prefer truth over falsehood, freedom over slavery, and Christ c•ver anti-Christ." They renewed their appeal to t he United States Government to eemonstratt with the Mexican Government against the "violation of civil and religious rights," and assured the Catholics of Mexico that their interest -in their welfare "remains steadfast and unabated." Exiled Bishops. Emphasis was given to the protest against the persecution in Mexico by the fact that the delegates were meeting in San Antonio where. as Archbishop Drossaerts said in his speech of welcome, two exiled Mexican Bishops have died and the Apostolic Delegate to Mexico now finds sanctuary. Supreme ,Knight Carmody, w hom the convention re-elected to office. described Communism a s "something distinctly foreign and apart from the conception o life and liberty that we have developed through our IF() years of v,- overnment.

1,500 "OLD BOYS" FILL
His Grace Denounces Spurious Chain-letter, Contraceptives
L
AST Sunday witnessed the second of what is intended to be a yearly demonstration of faith on the part of all exstudents of the Christian Brothers' schools and colleges now resident in this State. Some fifteen hundred men took part and approached the altar rails in a body during the nine o'clock Mass at St. Mary's Cathedral— a grand tribute to the prolific labours of their former tutors. * ELL before the appointed hour the Cathedral . was the focal point upon which group after group of men converged, men of all ages When Mass zi rid conditions. commenced the Cathedral was quite comfortably filled. His Grace the Archbishop c elebrated the Mass, assisted by Rev. Father Johnston. an ex„indent of the Christian Brothers' establishment at Fremantle. One of the most striking f eatures. of the occasion was the re x erent singing of the hymns. in which the entire congrgation took part. A t the end of the Mass His Grace entered the pulpit, and. a fter congratulating the Christian Brothers and the energetic committee x -ho arranged such a ..,...... _ fine demonstration, addressed the men a short but eloquent sermon.

His Grace's opening 'Subversive doctrines taint the v ery atmosphere you breathe; false philosophies abound on all sides. There is need for you to be every watchful and loyal." Chief amongst the, dangers which threatened Christianity and civilisation to-day, he continued, was that which was undermining the Christian ideal of family life. He referred to birth It was a cancerous control. growth eating more and more into the very vitals of society, causing national decay and disintegration. The pestilential camand openly paign that `was shamelessly conducted in their midst by the advocates of such an obnoxious doctrine compelled him on an occasion like this to w arn the Catholic people. The Church taught that contraception in all its forms was a grave crime. It was an injury to God, to society. to the family. and to the individual. . It defeated the ends of marriage and d egraded it to the level of a mer6 instrument of carnal gratification. The hatred of God for this crimt appeared in general from the horror with which sacred Scrip. t ure spoke of unnatural lust, and in particular, from the case . of ( Than whom God slew in punishment.

The London pub. these darkening evenings, is a cosy place, a 5 nue- place. usually with a fire burning, with food on the buffet. brown sausages, roast ducks. silvery ..ardines, round yellow cheeses. pink barns, all in happy harmony with the brown ales and dark stouts and the appetites of man. One still has the best talk in them, because one • talks at ease, and for hours. And.

One poet has been reciting to me for several weeks a composition of his c,wn. and Fleet-street still produces its s topical rhymes which run from ear to ear, the happy b y-products of the copy-tasters' desks. And old songs. the songs that England made when there were still things in England worth a song, survive in pubs. Old Ted, who plays a wicked hand at shove-ha'penny, paused the other evening to sing me a ballad of Susan. which was unnnestionably a very good ballad indeed.

It is a sheer defiance, according to the evening press: the B.B.C. has had so many complaints from temperance extremists regarding the mere mention • of demon alcohol. that the B.B.C. has revolted. It has thrown down the gauntlet. It is going to turn on drinking songs and praise of wines: it is going to honour jollity and puncheons. kegs and tuns and tankards. And Simon the Cellarer, no doubt.

St. Joseph's Convent School, Fremantle Grand Annual Entertainment The pupils of St. Joseph's Convent School, Fremantle, presented their grand annual concert in the Fremantle Town Hall OR Wednesday e vening, November 3, 1937, at eight o'clock. The house was crowded in e very part, and the enthusiasm pre. ,:alent to the closing number remains a delightful memory. From what seemed an inexhaustible repertoire, the orchestra, under the baton of Mr F. A rbuthnott, with Miss Kathleen Droney, presiding at the piano, delighted the audience with appropriate selections. Among the gathering were observed Very Rev. Father Ahearne, 0.M.I., Rev. Father Kenny, 0.NI.I., Rev. Father Ryan, 0.M.I., Rev. Father Moore, 0.M.I., Rev. Father Weldon, 0.M.I., Rev, Brother Boland, 0.M.I., and Rev.

* Letters to The Editor CHURCH MUSIC "lo the Editor. Sir,—The ecclesiastical regulations r egarding Church Music have been published twice recently in "The Record" in very prominent positions. NVhile listening to the broadcasts from St. Mary's Cathedral, I have noticed., with surprise that, apparently, these regulations are rarely, if ever, observed by that otherwise creditable choir. On the other hand, the requirements can be fulfilled with little trouble even by much less experienced singers. To my knowledge this has been done in more than one country centre. Why this strange anomaly —Yours, etc., "ENQUIRER," Northam.
Sir,--A great deal has been heard lately about a change in the music of the Mass, and it seems likely that we shall have Gregorian tones. The old masters, Handel, Mozart, Beethoven, S chubert, Haydn ,and others, composed many beautiful Masses. They gave of their very best to God and wrote their names to His glory and praise. Nothing could be more devotional than their works. Many years ago, when living in London, I used to attend the Orators- in Brompton-road ,at that time having the finest choir in England. The choir consisted of men and boys only, no women, but their rendering of the music of the old masters was most beautiful and solemn. It is only right to give the best of everything to God. The best music, the best paintings and ornamentation, the best architecture. Some people say you can worship God in a barn. So you can; but that is no reason why we should 11Qt build the most beautiful church we can get in which to worship God. In the same way we want the most perfect ornaments and the finest music in which to sing His praise. Music has a great influence on the soul. Remember the old quotation, -Music hath charms," etc. Saul used to be soothed by David's music. Perhaps on the occasion when he threw the javelin at him David was indulging in something similar to the Gregorian tones and so Saul was irritated instead of soothed, I sinoerely hope all the beautiful Masses are not going to be cut out .and Gregorian tones substituted. If so, daily practice would be the only way to make the voices blend perfectly and keep them subdued. Some Gregor:An tones that I heard the other day. instead of sounding one bvatitifill r ound note together, were boisterous and ragged in the extreme, and cal. iillted to be irritating to one's nerves.

St. Vincent's Junior OrphanclAe, Castledare Catholic Women's League The Executive of the League has been very busy of late getting everything in train for the Garden Fete in aid of the Home of Peace, Subiaco. When the League was formed in May last, His Grace Archbishop Prendiville, mentioned certain activities he would like it to undertake, and to assist the Home of Peace was one very dear to his heart. Hence the League had no hesitation in undertaking an effort to support it, The readiness with which the members of the League have taken books of tickets to sell shows that they are in accord with the wishes of His Grace. The Home of Peace is for members of all creeds and classes, and among its inmates are several Catholics, who speak very highly of the care and the kindness they receive. For its up. keep it depends very largely upon the generosity of the general public. On Tuesday, November 2, quite a of our Catholic ladies visited • number the institution and were shown over it by the Matron, and by Mr. Higgs, the organiser of the Home, and there they saw the wonderful care and attention being bestowed upon the inmates, who. despite much suffering, are very bright and happy. The Garden Fete will be held at the Home on Saturday afternoon, Decem•ber It, so we have just a few weeks to work it up. The main.thing is for all to work together, and if you are in any doubt as to what is needed, just write a line to Miss Furse, Room 212, Sheffield House, Hay-street, or to any member of the Executive, of which Mrs. Maxwell is president. The organiser of the Fete is Mrs. Conway, of 22 St. George's Terrace, and she will be grateful for any help, great or small. There will 'be a fancy stall, a cake stall, and a produce stall, besides afternoon tea, cool drinks; etc., and donations towards stocking same will i7e most gratefully received, The next meeting of the League will be held on Wednesday, November 24, at S p.m., in the Cathedral Hall, and will take the form of a social and business meeting. As a result of the last social quite a number have become members, but we want every Catholic woman to belong to it, so come ;long on 24th. inst., and join up and help in the charitable works tat are being undertaken. It is an old saying that "charity begins at home,- so we ask you to help Your elves now by coming along to a card cvening in the Cathedral Hall on December 1, the proceeds of which will go to the League's funds, as money needed to carry on the works which have been allotted to the League by His Grace. Fuller particulars will appear from time to time in "The Record,- and at the general meetings the president will furnish detailed information. In response to the president's appeal .for furnishing the League's headquarters, a lady very kindly promised an electric kettle—a most acceptable gift. The Executive meet on the init Monday of each Month, and special important 'meetings are held when w orks are on hand. On every Friday afternoon the presiden t and secretary may be interviewed at Room 212 from 2.45 p.m. Tilt lift will take you to the second floor of Sheffield House, so you will have no Etairs to climb. Once again, be sure and keep the e vening of November 24 and December 1 free and come round at S p.m. to the Cathedral Hall in Murray -street. The thanks of the C.W.L. are extended to the Hibernian Society for an invitation to a representative to be Present' at their annual General Communion and Breakfast. Mrs. M. Bustace attended and was much impressed by the wonderful demonstration of Faith at the Cathedral, and later, by the intense loyalty and devotion to ..lether Church, to the Archbishop and to the clergy, expressed in the speeches elivered at the Communion Break,

But this help did not cover everything and there was still an obligation on individuals to render all the assistance they could in order to make the lot of those He aplittle children happier. pealed to those present to show their sympathy for the work that was being done at Castledare by leaving a gift, which would be used by the Brothers to the best advantage, and would make the lot of the children much brighter. Whatever was done for the little ones was done for their Divine Master and would not be forgotten. Mr. C. Dudley eloquently supported the appeal of His Grace. He urged the gathering to make it possible for the Christian Brothers to maintain the Orphanage without the added burden of financial worries. By giving financial assistance they became participators in the noble work of the Brothers. The opportunities open to the boys in the Castledare-ClontarfTardun scheme were dwelt on by the Hon. Mr. Troy, M.L.A. He advised those present to do all t hey could to foster such an excellent plan. Mr. J. J. Kenneally and r. C. Cross, M.L.A., spoke in support of the appeal. The vote of thanks to His Grace was moved by Rev. Father Doyle, P.P., Queen's Park. His Grace, said Father Doyle, was ever ready to support by his eloquence and presence the charitable work of the Archdiocese. During the afternoon the Clontarf Band rendered a musical programme. The subscription list, which is (-till open. will be published later.

It was a creditable performance considering the poor start of the previous Saturday, with Gerry Lewin 33 (run out) and 0. Ryan 20, doing well in an endeavour to retrieve the position. St. Patrick's Old Boys again showed consistency with 123 in their second innings, G. Staples and 0. Ryan sharing the wickets for the opposition. Next Saturday, the Club has the bye, with the next match against Hurlingham at Raphael Park (Victoria Park) on November 27.

IIER 13, 1937.
Communist's Claptrap HATEVER the Spanish Front may have done for the spine of Mr. R. Hurd, the Communist agitator, a present lecturing in Perth, it has certainly not destroyed his nerve. A paid emissary direct from the heart of Red Spain, this gentleman proclaims himself to be a Roman Catholic. We have no hesitation in dubbing Mr. Hurd a contemptible liar for that statement. A Catholic is one who accepts the doctrines of the Church and endeavours to conform his practical activities to his beliefs. No Catholic could engage in a propagandist tour on behalf of the Soviet and remain a Catholic. If Mr. Hurd then retreats and say he W AS a Catholic, well the same is true of Judas, Luther and Henry VIII. But nobody regards such people as representing Catholic opinion. For this reason, and by such tactics, Communist propaBeganda will always he several jumps ahead of the Church. cause Communists recognise no moral law, they are not hampered by moral scruples, and their methods show none of those - distinctions which ordinary people make between right and wrong, and which is poptaarly known as common decency. It is sad to relate that Mr. Hurd is not cutting much ice. Except for the presence of a few interjectors at the private reception in the Town Hall last week, the whole affair would have degenerated into a Communist soliloquy. ' The despicable form of propaganda in calling himself a Catholic is not doing Mr. Hurd much good. He does not deceive the Catholic worker, and he does not convince anyone else, the Communists knowing their own. If he were wise he would drop the Catholic claim, because the Australian people have a wholesome distaste for men who "rat," whether in politics or elsewhere. He is running the imminent danger of being found out, which is the only sin the Communist acknowledges. in another respect, however, Mr. Hurd is performing a real public service. His arrival has brought a number of Communist affiliations into the light. These bodies, although not exclusively of Communist membership, are dominated bv the Red element and serve their ends. The Movement Against War and Fascism, for instance, has been heating the big drum on And, of course,. our old his behalf, and the Workers' Art Guild. friends of the Spanish Relief Committee, who jibbed at proving their innocence in the Law Court. There is no point in reviewing all the absurdities given out by Mr. Hurd. But the extraordinary similarity of his tactics with those employed by Sister Lowson and Mrs. Throssell, compel one to think they are all graduates of the same university, and have sat together at the feet of one master. His proof, for example, that the Spanish War was not one to save Catholicism. was appalling simple. Eighty per cent. of the "rebel" army, he claimed, Actually the Moors were foreigners, including mans' Moors. number 5 per cent., are not black and are well-disciplined regular • troops. Similar auxiliaries have been used by every civilised nation. Of the remaining foreigners (accepting lr. Hurd's preposterous figures), 40 per cent. would be Italians, and incidentally Catholics. So that that argument proves exactly what Catholics claim. In any case, it is rather ingenious for a member of the International Brigade to be complaining of foreign intervention This Communist force was in Spain within four months of the outbreak of the Civil War. Meantime, Mr. Hurd will continue lecturing under the auspices of the Spanish Relief Committee, which will continue collecting funds from the public. But they will What is happening to the money? not publish a balance sheet. Will they be forced to disclose these facts under pressure of public opinion?
T
Chain-Letters
HE public denunciation of chain -letters made by His Grace the Archbishop on Sunday last should set finally at rest the minds of any who were, perturbed by these cowardly attacks on the Church. it has never been the practice of thd Church to employ anonymity in the propagation of Her doctrines. When the Pope wishes to make a pronouncement. he issues • an Encyclical to the entire Catholic world. The Bishop of a diocese gives out a pastoral. The pulpit is raised above the ground level that all may see and hear what the Catholic Church has to say. If there arose any political issue which militated against the faith or morals of Catholics, the Hierarchy would not use a chain-letter, but would make public a Joint Pastoral, as the Spanish. German and Mexican Hierarchies have done.. The Church desires. anonymity less than, any other body. The Res Catholica is also the Res Rtiblica. Catholic Bishops have never been noted for timidity, as witnessed recent history in the condemnation of the Action Francaise, Cardinal Xen Roey's pronouncement against Degrelle. and Cardinal Faulhaber's criticisms of Nazi paganism. It was all the more injudicious, therefore, that a local paper saw fit to devote two pages to the shabby affair of the chain-letter. As the Archbishop pointed and yet completely miss the point. out, it should have been obvious to anyone that it was a travesty and a caricature of Catholic belief and Catholic practice, particuYet. whei-r,s the chainlarly the silly reference to "heretics." letter urged Catholics to capture all key positions in the State, the

Rather does experience show that Catholics are exasperatingly slow to take a proper interest and •participation in public life. Whether this arises out of a realisation of the corruption in public affairs is beside the point. In any case, it is futile to write about chain-letters without stressing that they are inimical to Catholics, are issued by the enemies of Catholicism, and that if they raise. sectarian bitterness it is all on the side of those who engage in such base and discreditable tactics.

Walpole On October 30, the Catholic community of this district were able to avail themselves of the privilege—the first in many months—of receiving Our Divine Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. T wenty-four people, adults and children, assembled at Mrs. R. B. Clarke's home at Walpole to hear Mass and to welcome Rey. Father Holahan to the district. Father Holahan had the pleasing duty on this, his first visit, of baptising two babies, and enabling little Pauline Stuckbury and Rosemary Dawson to make their first Holy Communion, for which they were instructed by their teacher, Mrs. MacPartland, to whom we are all deeply grateful for the interest which she displays in the spiritual welfare of the children, Father Holahan gave us a short dis course on the necessity of the world for Christ the King. Pointing out that the turmoil and strife and world chaos all arose from one common Recause, the abandoning of Christ. calling to us the constant appeal from our Holy Father the Pope to all people to give Our Lord his rightful place as Christ to King.

The Spring Tournament of the VV.A.L.T. Association, being held at the Leederville Club Courts, is providing great play, and should continue to do so. There have been some great sur',rises, excellent match play, and high standard tennis throughout. The tournament vill be concluded this week-end. "Christians'" Champion.
So far the feature of the tournament has been the very fine play of Max McDermott, of Christian 1;rothers' Perth. On Sunday he was opposed to a class player in Brian K innane. whom he beat in two .traight sets—a brilliant performance. The outstanding- features of the winner's play were his serving and his volleying. He has now reached the semi-finals o f the men's single championship. These will be played at the weekend. They are: Stephen y _Tac°by. McDermott v. Davis. Sacred Heart Champions.
There was a big surprise in the s emi-linals of the Girls' Junior Championship. where Miss Knox and Miss Ryan were successful. The former beat Miss Paull, 7.5.
7-5, and Miss.Ryan, first player for the recently successful Sacred Heart team, winners of the Slazenger Cup, ten years in successkin, excelled herself to defeat No. 1 seeded player, Miss Hunter. Not seeded in the first four, Miss Ryan dropped the first set, -but showed her quality in a great fight back to record a great and m eritorious victory. Women's Doubles Championships. The semi-finals of the Wo-
men's Doubles when Misses

Text of New Encyclical ( Continued from Page 9.)
And just as, in the time of the Crusades, there arose throughout Europe from all the nations a single supplication, so also, today throughout the whole world, in the towns and in the smallest communities, all are seeking, united in heart and effort, by means of filial and constantly repeated entreaties, to obtain from the Mother of God the defeat of the enemies of Christian and human civilisation in order that over tried and erring men true peace may shine! So, if all carry out what is asked of them with the necessary dispositions. with great confidence and fervent devotion, it can truly be hoped that as in the past the Blessed Virgin Mary will obtain also in our time from Her allipowdrful Son that the waves of present-day storms should be restrained and calmed, and that a brilliant victory should crown this noble emulation of Christians in prayer.

May they begin then that first, to recite on their knees before the statue of Our Lady the prayers
But the Holy Rosary does not only serve powerfully to conquer the enemies of God and religion; it is also a stimulant and a spur in the practising of the evangeliekil virtues which it inculcates and cultivates in our souls. It feeds, above all, the Catholic Faith which blooms again from just this opportune meditation of the holy mysteries and raises up our minds to the truth revealed by God. And each one can understand how salutary it is, especially in our times, in which sometimes even among the faithful one notices a certain disgust as regards the things of the spirit, and almost boredom with Christian doctrine. The Holy Rosary revives .also the hope of immortal happiness when the triumph of Jesus Christ and His Mother meditated by us in the last part of its recitation. shows us the opened heavens and invites us to NV111 our eternal home Thus, while the hearts of mortals are penetrated with the unbridled desire for the things of the earth, and while men covet ever more ardently perishable goods and ephemeral pleasures. all find in the Holy Rosary a useful reminder of the heavenly treasures "where no thief approacheth nor moth corrupteth" 331 and goods will ilever perish. And charity, which has slackened and grown cold among many. how cbuld it not he warmed by a return of love in the souls of those who remind themselves with 'afflicted hearts ot the tortures and death of our Redeemer and the afflictions of His Mother of Sorrows? Finally, from this charity towards God there cannot but spring necessarily a more intense love for our neighbour from the fact alone that our thoughts stop to consider the pains and sufferings that Our Lord endured to renew in us all the lost heredity of the Sons of God. Take then to heart, Venerable Brethren, that this practice of devotion which is so fruitful be always more widely used and that it be highly esteemed by all and increase general piety. By your zeal and that of your priests who aid von in the care of souls. may the praises and advantages of it be preached and repeated to the faithful 6f all classes of society.

HEY were now upon the high-road leading to the Holy City, when Jesus prophesied to the Jews that, though first to be called to the heavenly Kingdom, they should be the last to find the way thither. That he purposed going up to Jerusalem for the anniversary festival of the Dedication had come to be known to all, and the Pharisees of Perea were much rejoiced thereat. In their impatience to witness His departure they pretended to fear some outbreak of wrath from Herod, and so pressed Him to fly the country "Leave these parts," they urged ; "get away from here, for Herod has a mind to kill you." Defies Threats. These threatening words had little effect upon the Lord. He informed His enemies that nothing would hinder His fulfilling His Mission to the very end, and this He would do by proceeding onward toward the frontiers of Judea, not through any fear of Herod, but in obedience xo the mandates of Heaven, which were now beckoning Him on JerusaThen, branding the lemwards. wretched policy of that prince whose name they had invoked, He responded to the Pharisees: "Go and say to that fox that I shall cast out devils and heal the sick to-day and to -morrow, and on the third day I shall have finished; nevertheless, to-day and to-morrow and the day following T must walk, for it cannot he that a Prophet perish out of Jerusalem." And so at the time appointed t he Sa.viout quitted the realm of Herod. passed over the Jordan. and wended His way through the rocky defiles which lead up to the Holy City. Doubtless it was just as He was about to enter within her walls and at sight of the multitudes grouped around her gates. that the heart of Jesus was torn with great grief and ungrateful He wept over the city, foretelling that she would see Him only once again, that s9 she might welcome Him with a first outburst of gladness and straightway thereafter put Him to death. "Jerusalem! Jerusalem!" He cried. "thou that killest the Prophets and stonest them that are sent to thee, how often would T have gathered thy children as the hen doth her brood under her wings! And lo! your houses shall be deserted. for I say to you: You shall not see Me until you shall say. 'Blessed be He that cometh in the Name of the Lord !' " Last Chance. This sad foreknowledge did not prevent Jesus from entering the streets of Jerusalem. there to proffer her His gift of Salvation for the last time. Just now the town was given over to joyous celebrations, for the Feast of the Dedication was no less brilliant than were those of the TabFor ernacles or the Passover. the space of one week the Jews, with palm branches in their hands, surged in crowds through the Temple, with sa,:red song c ommemorating the Purification of the Sanctuary by the Maniatown was ablaze with lights, in memory of that single flask of oil which for eight days had sufficed for the needs of the divine service.

Anniversary of the Dedication Jesus -- Shepherd stone Him. With a word Jesus quelled their madness. "I have done in ,your presence," He said to them, ''many good works from Mv Father; for which one are you now about to stone Me?" " 'Tis not for any good work that we intend to stone you," they made answer, "but for blasphemy. and because, being a man, you make yourself God." And the Lott) was moved to pity by their blindness: He showed them how, in the Holy Books, Jehovah had Himself announced and foreshadowed this Mystery, which was so abhorrent to their minds. Not content with having appeared to their fathers under a human form, to prove that He did not deem our flesh unworthy to be united with gis Divinity He had even bestowed his incommunicable Name upon the judges of Israel. "You are the gods of earth," He had said; "you are all sons of the Most High." Since the Voice of Infallibility. and the words of Scripture, which can never perish, had both attributed this title to mere creatures, how durst these enemies of the Christ accuse Him of blasphemy -for that He said: "1 am the Son of God?" Jesus assured them anew that He was their Shepherd. their Safeguard, their Watchman.

Hew was content to recall what He had told them as to His Miswhat wondrous sion. and by deeds He had given proof thereof. Then, repeating the parable He had given them at the Feast of the Tabernacles, He assured them anew "that He was their Shepherd. that if they were willing to be His sheep, following Him and / hearkening to His voice, having Trim for their Safeguard and their Watchman. they might rest in sweet security, for the Father had communicated unto Him His attributes, that divine Power which is above all things whatsoever; yet no one is able to wrest aught from the hand of the Father." And then He added: "My Father and I are but One." One Substance With God. The essential vigour of these mighty words would alone have made their meaning clearly manifest. By them Jesus declared Himself their God—not simply united to the Father by faith and love, but having only the one same Substance with Him. And it was in this sense the Jews tinderstood His words, for they snatched up stones. thinking to
Escape. Nor did Jesus confine Himself to reducing them to silence by this personal argument; He proceeded to fortify His position by means of those Marvels which the Father had worked by Him, in order to evidence that He was
with Him and in Him, and so concluded by disclosing His Divinity more plainly than ever before. "My Father is in Me." He said, "and I in My Father." Cpon these words the Sanhedrin rushed upon Him to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hands and went forth from, the Temple. Once again He had made it ap"pear that the princes of . Juda were obstinately determined to reject His proffered gifts; and thereupon He quitted Jerusalem and returned to the other side of Jordan. into the land of Perea which had aforetime given Him kindly welcome. Henceforth it was to be the only part of Israel where the Incarnate Truth might find patient listeners: indeed, it would appear that this region remained faithful unto the end, for scarcely had Jesus revisited the places where John had baptised swhen the country-people flocked about Him again.

Meantime Michael Creenan was languishing among other unfortunates in the town gaol.

Michael more certainty round Creenan's neck; and that I naturally hesitated to do. The same consequence might ensue if I reported the mysterious conduct of the young priest. I determined, therefore, to wait fur a little while yet, and see what might ensue. Michael Creenan was not yet either tried or condemned, and in the meantime there was a possibility that I might make some new discovery, even at the last moment. Somewhat to my surprise. after that midnight interview with Father Anthony, my patient at the lonely farm seemed to gain strength. In a couple of days he was out of bed and sitting up in the sick-room; but with that increasing strength came an increasing sullenness and taciturnity, so that he seemed almost to resent my efforts to restore him to health. His cry now was for drink, which his sister, under my instructions, carefully kept from him. On the afternoon of the day when the assizes were to open I visited the farm, and found the man up and dressed, though still too weak to venture out of the house. He greeted me with his usual growl of salutation, and then said, glancing darkly at his sister, who stood by: "Did your honour tell Kathleen not to let me taste a drop of spirits?" "Certainly." I replied. "In your present condition drink is poison to you, and unless you want to die--" "Sure I don't mind about that," he muttered. "I'm wake and low, and a little shmall drop of the. drink would comfort me." "If you were a wise man," I returned. "you would never see whisky again. T. believe it's at the bottom of all your troubles. By the way," I added "you've never told me how you got that ugly wound in the arm." I watched him closely as I put the question. His coarse, unshaven face, grim as a wild beast's, went black as thunder, and he cast a strange glance at his sister as he answered: "Mv curse on them as done it! I'll be even with them some (lay." "But how did it -happen?" I persisted. He turned his savage eyes on mine. "You want to know too much," he muttered. But at that motnent. to my surprise, Kathleen stepped forward and, pointing at him with a trembling finger, cried: "Tell his hohour what he asks! Tell him the truth, Rory Bournest or shall I tell him?" "Hould your tongue," growled the man, with a curious look of alarm. "Sure I'll not hold my tongue." returned Kathleen, with roving excitement. Then turning quickly to me she added, with a. flash of her dark eyes: " 'Twas myself that did it: and by that token I'm sorry that 'twas no worse!" "Don't believe her," returned the man. "She's lying." "I'm not lying neither," said N2 thleen ; and as she spoke she rushed across the room, and throwing open a cupboard, drew

But without looking at she him, brought the reaping-hook to me and placed it in my hand. "Look at it, your honour," she cried. "Look at the blood there on the blade of it—the blood of him that I struck with it, bad luck to him. Is it lying I am, now?" I examined the weapon. The point and inner edge, sharp as a razor, were covered with blood, as she said; blood which had dried on it; and there were crimson spots and splashes even on the handle. I looked at the woman in horror. while her brother, now white with terror, eagerly besought me not to let her approach him. "Sure you needn't be afraid," she said. "I've given my word to the soggarth, and I'll never lift my finger against him again; but if he says I didn't do it he's lying, your honour. I stabbed him with the reaping-hook, and God willing I'd have had his life." " Why did you do this?" I demanded. "You might have murdered him; and from what you say it was your intention to do so." "Sure enough," was the reply. "Ask him why; maybe he'll tell you the truth, or maybe it'll be another lie!" So saying, she took the reaping hook from me. and placing it back in the cupboard turned the key in the door. "Your honour may keep the key," she said, placing it in my hands. "What I did once I (lid. but I'll never do that same again. My brother Rory knows he's safe enough now from me." And without another word she left the room. I sat with the sick man for a little time, but failed to elicit from him any further information. His momentary alarm over, he relapsed into his former sullen mood, and only responded to me in monosyllables; but when, as in duty bound, I asked him if he was still in dread of his sister's violence, he replied: "No, your honour. She manes what she says—she's sorry for what she's done." I left him, and passing into the adjoining kitchen, found Kathleen watching by the fire, w ith her face hidden in her hands. When I approached her she looked up. and I saw the tears streaming down her face. "You are a strange girl," I said gently. "Wfiat had your brother done that you should attempt to injure him so terribly?" "Your honour will know some day." she answered, sobbing: "but sure, he's my own flesh and blood. and I don't want to see him come to harm. It's the curse of God is on itim and me and all of us, and sure my heart's broken and I wish I was lying in my grave." I attempted to question her further, but could get nothing out of her. At last I expressed to her plainly enough my belief that both she and her brother knew more than they cared or dared to say about the Mylrea mystery. She did not appear at all astonished, nor did she exhibit any dread when I added that it might be my duty to communicate with the police. "It's not the peelers I'm afraid of." she said quietly. "but the curse o' God! Sure it's no use

C ouncillor Goodier, Brother of A rchbishop. Oswald A. Goodier, K.C.S.G., a former Grand President of the Catenian Association, and for many years treasurer and secretary' of the Stony-hurst Association, is to be the first Catholic to become Mayor of Preston, England, since the Reformation. In order to make it possible for Councillor Goodier to accept the office, the Preston Town Council passed the following resolution: "That in future no conditions as to attendance at church be attached to the acceptance of the Mayoralty of the borough." Previously no Catholic could accept the office of Mayor of Preston because a civic visit to the Anglican parish church of the town by the Mayor was always insisted upon.
Archbishop Hinsley has anriounced that he will invite representative economic writers, employers and workers, or members of Trade Unions among Catholics, to discuss with him T he formation of an Advisory Board, or Court of Appeal, both for workers and employers, in ;he Westminster Diocese. The Archbishop's invitation follows a letter sent lw the St'. Vincent de Paul supreme council in London suggesting that the English Hierarchy appoint a small committee to investigate with expert advice what exact 1-tandards of living should reasonably be expected by the w orker and provided by the Catholic employer. "Such a committee, acting with a uthority, might possibly be a court of appeal both for workers -Ind employers." states the letter. HIS GRACE, MOST REV. DR. HINSLEY, Archbishop of Westminster and Metropolitan of England—
The new unconditional invitaCouncillor to tion extended Goodier to become Mayor was a unanimous one of the 1.N-hole Council. A native of Great Harwood, but brought to Preston as a child, Councillor Goodier is a brother f Archbishop Goodier, S.J. On Council in 1924. He was educated at Stonyhurst and amitted as a solicitor in Amongst the offices he 1897. now holds on the Preston Town Council, which he entered in 1924, are the chairmanships ot he Highei Education Sub -committee and the Water Committee. Last year he was created a Knight Commander of St. Gregory for his work for Catholic ;Tauses. He is at present a parishioner of the Sacred Heart Church, Ashton-on-Ribble. where it is ex2ected a new church for the parinsh will be opened during his year of office. He was Grand President of the Catenian Association from 1919 to 1921, and president of the Stonyhtirst Association in 1922. The new Mayoress, Mrs. V. M.

"All Catholic societies were recently invited to make concrete proposals whereby social justice, so desired by our Holy Father the Pope. might become a reality in the Catholic life of ails country." the letter says.
"The Sovereign Pontiffs, as You told us, have defined the moral principles upon which the economic and social life of the w orld should be built. Of set purpose they have left each nation to discover practical details. "The Catholic Press supplies constant evidence of the interest displayed by the laity in the Church's attempt to find methods c f arriving at true social justice according to the teachings of the Encyclicals. Ready for Social Reforms. "The Catholic demonstration at the Royal Albert Hall on September 30 must provide a proof that the Catholic Church in England is prepared not only to reiterate general principles, but to lay down some definite programme of social reform. The Church is deeply concerned for the temporal welfare of her children so all should have the opportunity to live a full Christian life, in order that they may come to Eternal Salvation. "We, the sons of St. Vincent de Paul, make so bold as to accept Your Grace's invitation and t o offer the following proposal." A fter stating the pr9posal. the letter goes on : "It is not for us, at this moment, to burden Your Grace with details of ati"-'y possible plan touching wages. rents, competitive prices and the inter-relationship of one with the c,ther. "It is sufficient for us humbly to suggest that the interpretat;on of what the Papal Encycli.,sals import, when their general principles are applied to the ecopomic conditions of our country, c ould well he entrusted to a representative body of Catholic experts and of Catholic practical men both employers and employed_ or members of trades union 3. The letter is signed by Mr. J. McKnight, President. Mr. E. A. Dean. treasurer, and Mr. J. T. Mumford, hon. secretary Archbishop Replies. In his reply. dated September 27, the Archbishop says: "The practical proposal of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul contained in your letter of September 26 is for the Board of Bishops to consider. "But I accept this suggestion for my own diocese, and I shall invite representative economic writers, employers and workers, or members of trades union qmong Catholics. to meet me and discuss the formation of the ad,-isory board proposed."

C ONFESSION SEAL CASE: C HARGE WITHDRAWN. The Government of Travancore, India, has withdrawn the proceedings initiated against a Trivandrum priest for refusing to break the seal of confession. Father Paul, parish priest of St. Joseph's Church, heard the confession of a thief who had stolen jewels and documents worth a considerable sum from the house of a clerk working in the Travancore Secretariate. The thief entrusted part of the spoils to Father Paul. The priest returned them and later was interviewed by the police. When told that he would be required to give evidence, Father Paul refused. were Criminal proceedings started and the priest was to stand trial. The case has been dropped. it is stated. only because the actual theft took place three years ago. The authorities declined to accept Father Paul's contention that the confession was privileged. on the ground that such lig privilege is -not in the in' la Penal Code. Patronise Our Advertisers
