WINES and BRANDY Don't mix up votivv lamps with 'Aladdin's Lamp." No magical power attaches to a votive lamp. It has value only as an expression of faith and love. If one had no religious anotive based on genuine faith, one might just as well light a hurricane lamp, hang it on a clothes-line, and wait for a non-existent rich uncle in Fiji to die, and leave a fortune to a man of whom he has never heard. Things would be still worse if one not only had
no religious motive based on genuine faith, but arranged for a votive lamp from motives of superstition, believing in the efficacy of a burning lamp as if it were a lucky charm, or capable of affecting the course of events by its own innate powers. A votive lamp has no value save as a r epresentative of a disposition ot prayer to God; and I might say tholic religion As a "Votive that a quarter of .an hour's ferIn itself, the vent personal prayer to God is Lamp system." lighting of a lamp before an altar better than burning a votive lamp for a quarter of an hour inor a shrine as an expression of stead.

F. Ireland, Barrangarry, New South Wales. I have read in a Catholic paper of the Votive Lamp system, and would like to know something about it. You are welcome to ask any questions you wish about Catholic teachings or practices. But there is no such thing in the Ca-
God's blessing and protection. A modern writer has recently said, "I am always strangely moved when I see the white beams of the votive candles in a church, in modestly crowded together some corner by the altar—as if they were living souls shining there, and consuming away in their own fire; the faithful canWe (les which we put there. have to go: but they remain in cur place in the sacred building. wasted until their service has them to .the last drop." As a simple religious practice. therefore. votive candles are quit6
justifiable. But, as with all religious practices, excess is possible. and excesses are always to he condemned. Moderation is necessary in all things.
ind there are simple and fool.sh people who have the right celigion. And in all three cases their simplicity and folly will manifest themselves in various ways. And, whilst the burning
of a votive lamp is a small act of piety quite justifiable in itself, I have not got to justify the imaginative extravagances of simple Catholics, or the superstitions of foolish Catholics. Those I condemn, and would use any priestly influence I possess . to eradicate. Catholics Easily Led! I suppose the Catholic people are easily led by their priests. If .so, then surely you must
their real dignity in the realm of piety, and an exaggerated reliance upon their efficacy beyond any reasonable value than can be assigned to them, are to be condemned. A way With Credulity!
I don't believe all that I read about them. Nor do I. So we are at one on that point. Btft the Catholic Faith does not demand that we believe all that people, even Catholics. have to say about votive lamps. Simple people are inclined to he superstitious. And t here are simple and foolish people who have no religion: there are simple and foolish people who have the wrong religion ;
What Does a Lamp "Do"?
r ealise from these replies that if they were guided by the advice of the priest who is talking to you now, they would certainly not be induced to engage in any c redulous folly or superstition. And, whilst the burning of a votive lamp may be justifiable in itself, to make a fetish of "votive lamps" would be discountenanced and forbidden by all the Ca-
tholic priests I have ever met or known. Howevelr, not all Catholics, by any means, are eas7 ily led by their priests. just as there are various degrees of phrsical health in human beings, so there are various degrees of spiritual health in those who profess to be Catholics.

Nobody can understand the basis of our civilisation unless they first realise the nature and organisation of the Christian Empire of the middle ages; their coherent system of law, civil obligations, social privileges, feudal hierarchy, and above all their theory of citizenship were all derived from the Roman Empire and modified by the Universal Church to form a compact system which even in our lives is breaking and collapsing into anarchy and atheism, arising from the decay of its basic principles in the Protestant "Reformation." Nobody but a Catholic can comprehend the spirit of Christendom; no English-speaking person nowadays can understand the idea of Christendom unless he reads Belloc. In his latest historical, "The Crusade," he presents a panorama of life in the age of the Normans and rise of the feudal system. Above all, he gives us a rational interpretation of history—a quality which distinguishes Belloc from practically his illustrious predecessors, who allowed their scholarship to outweigh their sense of reality and whose unconcealed prejudice distorted the perspective of history to such an extent that most nineteenth-century history reads like an excursion into a corner of dretmland.

He was of no great importance, that clergyman, and of himself would not count for much in the scheme of things. But since for us Campion has come to symbolise the durability and immutability of the Church of God, fate has brought it about that that little Elizabethan preacher has acquired the accidental notoriety of standing himself for one of the changing shadows that come and go about Her.

Authority and Democracy ( Continued from Page 9. .
W e can, for the present, pass over Russian Sovietism; it seems to me that it has no point of contact with any other political system. Many people imagine that Communism represents a progress upon the present state of humanity; on me it has the effect of a reaction. At different epochs. the world has seen many Communist experiments, and in a certain sense, one can say that religious orders form another today. History shows that Communism is compatible only with a little developed and little differentiated economy, and that it exacts either a strong and absolute authority, as in Russia, where it will be able to maintain itself for some time yet, or those high virtues which have permitted it to last in monastic orders. That is why people desire Communism : but it is impossible to wish at one and the same time both for Communism and liberty. The latter does not exist in Russia; if at least in place of liberty the lot of the workingclasses had been bettered, this loss of liberty would have had its compensation. Alas! that is not the case, it appears; from the fact of oppression. uniformity, lack of initiative and enthusiasm, the economic regime is in a very had way. I have not the least intention of denying the realisation of the Soviet State. great factories, or large constructions. At the same time, let us recall that Russia has not recognised the public debt contracted by her before the revolution, and if we envisage for an instant .the hypothesis of a similar attitude on the part of some European nation, would we not come to the conclusion that, without any change of government. every State would be capable of momentarily accomplishing marvels. The problem thus put. it will he found without doubt that the work accomplished is very minute. In truth, Russian Communism represents to-day neither a political regime nor an economic system ; it is a doctrine, a philosophy, a morality, a religion Through its apostles and its revolutionary agents it pretends to replace by others, and this throughout the whole world, the conceptions that the majority of civilised peoples have received more or less directly from Rome and Christianity. But it seems that very few notice at what point the principles oi The one and of the other are absolutely irreconcilable: in fact, apart 'from Germany and Italy, openly antiCommunist, the other States want to make us believe that their tolerance towards a subversive propaganda—or their tacit assent is alone commanded by the respect due to the political institutions of other people. Although Communism has failed in Russia, there are still those who would install it in their country under the pretext of saving democracy, liberty, peace and social justice—and that brings us to the conclusion that the minds of men are very. foggy, or their declarations are very cynical.

But, &e. hind this facade, there is a constitutional spirit, which gives to these institutions and organs of the State a different aspect than it is customary to attribute to them. We are anti-Parliamentarians, 'anti-Liberals, anti-Demos:vats. and we want to build up a corSuch statements porate State. may make some people tremble— they may even cause horror amongst some—people who are more used to correcting the faults of their. political system by the virtues of their social formation, than to dreaming of the misery caused by these same institutions in countries which have a different formation. But, speaking sincerely, there is nothing to make any one shiver there; as a matter of fact we are searching for the same objectives as they. hut by processes which are better adopted to our manner of life. We desire that the greatest merit o f out institutions should be this: that clearly imprinted on them they should carry the riark of their Portuguese origin. One of the greatest errors of the 19th. century was to consider that English Parliamentarianism, English detnocracv, constituted a regime capable of being adapted to all European peoples. This was the result: Parliamentary democracy has finished up everywhere in instability and disorder, or rather it has been transformed into a sort of absolute domination of parties over the real nation except, perhaps, in Switzerland, and in a few countries of, the North where specia: conditions of life and hisiory have permitted democratic institutions to become acclimatised and to function. Dictatorships have never failed to arise here and there where the evil became insupportable; they restored order, reorganised life, then and repaired miseries, everything began over again. In general. Continental democracies have not done for the people what non-democratic regimes have been able to accomplish. and it is not true that regimes qualified with liberals have really safeguarded public liberth.s. We are anti-liberal be' i r -e-ause we wish to guarantee those ) libertie.s, some of which liberalism has deprived us of; regarding others she has shown herself ( incapable of assuring us that we will be able to obtain them.

are anti-democrats, because our democracy which seemed to lean on the' people and pretended to represent it, came to the point of remembering the people only when the elections approached, xvhei-eas we want to elevate the people, educate it, protect it. tear it from the slavery of plutocracy. On the other hand, to imagine, as is often done, that public liberties are hound up with democracy and parliament, is to have no appreciation of realities. That the care of the people is close to our heart, and that we are the defenders of its continual ascension and power in the material and moral order, in no way implies for us the necessity of believing that in the mass is found the origin of power, and that the government can be the work of the multitude and not of an elite on which is incumbent the duty of directing collectively and sacrificing itself for that end. To wish to guarantee those liberties essential to social life and human dignity itself does not imply the obligation of considering liberty as the element upon which every political construction should be built. Liberalism has finished up by coining the sophism: "There is no liberty against liberty." But in harmony with the essence of man and the realities of life we will say it is only against the common interest that liberty does not exist. One easily understands the surprise of the foreign observer at some of our laws and institu!ions, which deny the legitimacy 4 certain harmful prerogatives, • a , 1 of contenting themselves as is the custom, of enforcing sanctions, always easy to escape, It is against abuses or vices. because we do not forget that the efficacy of preveOve or repressive measures, and the utility of their employment in governing depend on the social formation of the people. on their culuture and their manner of life.
Measures which would be useless in countries of individualistic formation, like England. become is indispensable when there question of a communal people in If we disintegration like ours. want to do something useful, we must believe in the educative action of political institutions upon man and hope that they will be able to amend him by refusing him the satisfaction of certain vices which he carries in him. According to what has just been shown, it is difficult to give to the Portuguese regime the name of Authoritative Democracy. as the chief of the Italian Government has called Fascism moreover, even if the word democracy has not lost some of its value, the sense is sufficiently altered for us to give up using it).

POPE NAMES "UNRELENTING ENEMIES" "Te be German Catholics in these days is something—for these days are difficult and sad ones for every truly Catholic i.erson," said the Pope, addresing in German recently a group of German pilgrims from Berlin. "These plgrims come to us as r epresentatives of all Germany Gerand especially Catholic tnany. "They come to the Vicar of Christ faithful to the creed of their Fathers, which is and always will he the salvation of Germany. They come to the Vicar of Christ, whose laws and teachings are the true salvation, the +rue light against the Bolshevism of our days, the only true means to combat Bolshevism. "The Bolshevists themselves have recognised this, and have other all declared that with f aiths and religious they can come to terms, but not with the Catholic religion. "This is a great honour and a great truth, but it is also a lamentable fact that we are faced by these unrelenting enemies who do everything in their power against the Catholic Church"

By 1934 there was a genuine gold rush. Shows opened up everywhere, prospectors raked the hills over within a radius of thirty miles of the old telegraph station. The field was proved to have an area of something like two thousand square miles. By 1935 the population of Tennant Creek had grown to near 600. Then came a mining warden, a police post was established, and a small hospital and school. Batteries were established and crushed ore was carried out more systematically. Still, Tennant Creek remains a remote spot. This means that everything is expensive. Miners have found that in many cases it has cost them more to, have their ore crushed than they have received from the mint for the gold won. Hence, the rush has quitened down to steadier lines of development. Two government batteries are now operating at cheaper costs, and mines which were a liability before, are now profitable. Mining representatives of all the large companies have studied the field, Government geologists have spent weeks at different intervals preparing official reports. From these reports, from the success of one large company mine—the Eldorado. from the rich patches of ore opened up by gougers in hundreds of different patches, It seems that Tennant Creek has a long life ahead of it. The Church. A priest was first appointed there early in 1936. Mass for the first twelve months was said in the humble residence of some local Catholics—a galvanised iron shack with an ant-bed floor. The dining table was pushed to the end of this room, c1othe3 were dismantled from nails, and the best was made of the circumstances. The small congregation knelt on the ant-bed and stood for the sermon. The alb was red up to knee-height from the antbed.

This year a small hall was available for Mass, hut was very unsuitable, as the dance, which took place most Saturday nights till the small hours, left the hall rather a wreck. Last September. the old and long disused church at Pine creek, built twenty-five years ago by Mgr. Gsell and Father Cross, was pulled down and brought to Tennant Creek. despite the wet weather which made the northern roads impassable. The freight was very co,stly, much material was lost through various circumstances, so that by the time the Pine Creek church was re-erected at Tennant Creek and re-adapted, it cost many hundreds of pounds. A sacristy, which is also an office, has been added to the structure, and a verandah has been built on two sides to serve as accomodation for the priest The church has been lined, a sanctuary built, and the whole church has been equipped throughout on lines which are permanent. The Parish. To .visit every mine in Tennant Creek is a journey of 500 miles. The alluvial field is fortmiles: other mines are twenty and thirty miles out. Not only for this reason is there a good deal of travelling to do in order to maintain contact with the people. but the priest at Tennant Creek has to visit two wolfram fields at distances respect-, ivelv of 80 and 150 miles from there. There are over a hundred men on the first and over two hundred on the second. Then there are the stations. There are Catholics at Elkreda, and that is 250 miles from Tennant. Alexandria. Austral Downs are more than two and three hundred miles distant. Then the north road has to be traversed at least as far as Bir(him and Matraranka. including Daly Waters and Newcastle Waters—distances of over three 1 hundred miles being involved again. There are but a handful of blacks in the vicinity of Tennant Creek. and without an established mission amongst them, it is quite impossible to do anything for them. It devolves on the single priest at Tennant Creek to exert every effort to keep the Faith alive or to strive to revive the Faith in the scattered outback Catholics of the Northern Territory. with Tennant Creek as a base. _01

POPE'S APPRECIATION. Letter From Cardinal Pacelli. Del Vaticano, September 23, 1937. Your Grace,—It gives me great pleasure to acknowledge receipt to your Grace of the sum of L9,276/9- ( Australian), which was transmitted recently by H.E. the Delegate Apostolic as a gift from the Hierarchy and faithful of Australia and New Zealand in aid of their suffering brethren in Spain. Upon learning from the letter with whicb the Delegate Apostolic accompanied this splendid donation that the initiative had come from your Grace, His Holiness charged me to expreSs to you, and through you to the Bishops, clergy and people concerned, his sentiments of profound thankfulness and appreciation. Although he is accustomed to see daily evidence of the love which binds his spiritual children to him and to one another, he was deeply affected by the fraternal charity betokened by this offering, coming as it does from the Antipodes, and he had words of the highest praise for the sterling Catholicity which has so munificently endowed him with the means of continuing his paternal helpfulness towards the stricken people of Spain. It will, I am sure, be a solemn r ecompense and an abiding satisfaction to all x'ho have contributed to this fund to know that, under the loving direction of the Father of Christendom. these moneys will be dispensed in providing the necessities of religion to those who have been deprived of their churches and institutions by ruthless and impious hands, and in supplying the material necessities of life to the hungry and the homeless, especially to the women and children. From a heart overflowing with gratitude, the Sovereign Pontiff sends to your Grace, and to the Bishops, priests, and faithful of Australia and New Zealand, his Apostolic Benediction, that it may call down upon you all in abundant measure those graces which you most desire and need. . Gladly availing myself of this occasion to express to you my own sentiments of high esteem and of cordial regard.—I am, your Grace, devotedly yours in - hrist, C E. CARD. PACELLI. To His Grace. The Most Rev. Daniel Mannix, D.D.. Archbishop of Melbourne.

Then. on December 11, the Garden Fete in aid of the Home of Peacg will be held in the grounds of that institution from 2 p.m. onwards. All will be pleased to know that Lady Mitchell has graciously consented to open t he fete at 3 p.m. This shows the deep interest and kindly sympathy of her Ladyship in the cause of a most deserving charity. In addition to the Fancy, Cake. and Produce Stalls, two members of thie E xecutive are taking charge of a stir prize packet table, and there will be some worth-while prizes for a very modest outlay. It would take too much space to enumerate the number of gifts promised by those business people already approached. but lots more are required, as the League feels that its mettle is being tested on this. occasion. Yes there will be afternoon tea. cool drinks, ices, and ice-cream. besides a chocolate wheel and such-like popular forms of entertainment. A well-known hand will render sweet music during the afternoon. You will hear of the fete over the air, and you will see references to it in the trams, but the essential part is for you to come along and help—be it ever so little. Now, don't forget the general meeting on Wednesday next, 24th. inst. If you are not already a member come and join up. You will receive a warm welcome from the President and Secretary. Would it not be grand if the League were 500 strong before the new year. I hear our Chaplain has gone to the East. Perhaps he will bring back some fresh ideas from there, to inspire us to still greater efforts. The postal address of the League is Room 212, Sheffield House, Haystreet.

CONVENT CONCERT. The annual concert given by the pupils of the Harvey Convent of the Sisters of Mercy attracted a large crowd to the Harvey Hall. The programme submitted was a lengthy one, and judging by the vociferous applause which greeted each and every item, met with the general approval of the house. The bill was well varied and item followed item with a precision which left no dull breaks in the sequence of a high grade entertainment. Lovers of vocali§s, both solo and choral, and the instrumental, of humour and ,even pathos, were liberally catered for, and the manner in which the juvenile performers carried out their individual parts reflected the utmost credit on their tutors and the attention which they were given. An outstanding feature of the evening's entertainment was the elaborate frocking in a number of items. Both in design and execution the dresses lent much to the charm of the items, and the Sisters and their helpers are to be complimented for the pleasing effects they were able to produce. In the drills and marching the children performed with a military precision and unison which would have done credit to those must their senior in years and training. Prior to the close of the entertain. ment-, Rev. Father F. Ryan thanked the house for its liberal patronage and complimented the youthful performers on the excellence of the entertainment they had provided. The bill opened with a tuneful and delicately executeki pianoforte duet, "Pizzicate," by Misses Judy norrocks and Shirley Wooders, which was followed by a tuneful little number, "Ilow'd you like to be a baby girl?" by the babies. The boys aroused the risible qualities of their house with their number, "The Trump." The sem ior girls earned well merited applause with their song and dance, 'Jolly Jack Tars." Miss Ruby Johnston was loudly applauded for her rendering of "Sing, Break Into Song," whilst the junior boys performed their durnbbell drill in a manner which left nothing to be desired. One of the most colourful turns of the night was provided by the babies in their rendering of the sweet little number, "In the Days of the Crinoline" and their execution of the old Victorian dance steps. The little performers were Jean Galbraith. Shirley Burrows, Jean Rennie, Marie Boylen, Beryl Beard, Leslie Holland, Ruth Anderson and Pauline Pinner. Mr. Roy Roesner needed little Gr. no introduction to his house, and his masterful rendering of that old favourite, "The Volga Boatman," as a violin solo, was received with enthusiasm. The school choir was heard to advantage in two renderings, "April is a Lady" and "Slowly and Softly Music Should Flow." Misses G. Cook and P. Gatehouse next entertained with a pianoforte duet, "Husarenritt," a difficult piece, whieh called for all the artistry of the pair. The babies next entertained with the action song, "The Lullaby Train.The little ones, supported by an augmented choir, per. formed admirably and their appearance proved a popular one. The boys presented "Peter's Problem," to the e vident amusement of the house. The actors were A. Harrison (Peter), John Firman, All Smith, Bill Holland. Messrs. R. Roesner and G. Anderson were applauded to the echo for their rendering of "Russian Air" on the yinlins, whilst the senior girls performed their tap dance in an able and pleasing manner. George Hymus shared his embar. rassment with the house in his recitation of "Saving Poetries." Mastei Laurie Muir was heard to advantage in his violin rendering of "Rondo." The first half of the programme was brought to a close with a drill by the senior boys. Following a short interval the school choir was heard to distinct ad vantage in the rendering of "Airs from the Bohemian Girl." The orchestra consisted of Miss G. Cook at the piano, and Messrs. R. Roesner and G. Anderson and Masters Laurie Muir, Roy Milligan and Bobbie Boylen. The remainder of the concert was taken up with the presentation of the cantata. "The Fairies' Quest." It told of the Queen of the fairies, who had lost her throne through a display of had temper. Emissaries are sent to earth to find a new queen, and they have to choose from the first three children they meet. The cantata opened with a pleasing chorus by the choir, whilst the entry of the little dance girls prettily frocked in Yellow, gave the stage an attractive appearance. "Swandown- (Kathleen
ST. BRIGID'S CONVENT SCHOOL CONCERT. Weeks of hard work on the part of Sisters and children culminated on Thursday evening, 28th. ult., in the presentation at the Convent Hall of one of the most successful concerts ever staged by the pupils of St. Brigid's. When the curtain rose a few minutes after 8 o'clock, the hall was packed, and additional seats had to be placed right up to the stage to accommodate late corners. So popular have these annual concerts become, it seems probable that in the not too distant future they will be held in the Town Hall. The lengthy programme of 22 items was presented in a manner which spoke volumes for the organising ability of the Sisters. The talent displayed by the children was very gratifying for parents and friends. A pleasing feature was the presence in the audience of visitors from Jardee, 'Manjimup, Boyup Brook, Donnybrook, and Bunbury, a number of whom, in conversation with the writer, expressed surprise at the high standard attained by the children. Whilst the performers generally are to be heartily congratulated, there were necessarily various items which had a special appeal for different members of the audience. James Prastidis with his violin, and Ruby Rodgers at the, piano, are to be commended for the manner in which they played the accompaniments for various songs and dances. Both boys' and girls' drill displays were good, and well applauded. The club swinging was particularly good, and many people are looking forward to a repeat of this item at future concerts. The girls who danced the "Kerry Dance" ttuAoughly deserved the prolonged applause which they received, and particular mention must be made of Thelma Fleeton, who did not permit the early loss of a slipper to affect her performance in the slightest. Well done, Thelma. Lennie Gossage, as the doll, in the dialogue, "The Ventriloquist," fairly brought down the house. He will be eagerly looked for next concert. The tiny tots were very good in "A Doll's House Party,- and the action song "Jolly Jack Tars Are We." The song, "Rendezvous," by the senior girls, was beautiful. -Eighteen girls took part, fifteen as a choir, one tiny tot as a statuette, and the two principals who, dressed as a shepherd and shepherdess, danced a stately gavotte. The humorous recitations, "Small Boys' Troubles," by John Fleeton, and "Mr. Brown Gets His Hair Cut," by Percy Feazey, were well received. The humorous debate, "Should School be Abolished?" was greatly appreciat. ed by all, a noticeable feature being the excellent diction of the speakers: this point alone, to at least one member of the audience, being a strong argument for the "negative." All the singing and pianoforte items were good, and the performers ably upheld the reputation of the Sisters in this branch of education. Particularly noteworthy was the fine performance of Moira and Patricia Holmes, in the vocal duet, "I Don't Want to Play in Your Yard." During the evening Rev. Father Fanning thanked all who had helped the Sisters to make the concert such a splendid success, and expressed his appreciation of the attendance and the excellence of the children's performance. A thoroughly enjoyable evening was brought to a close by the performance of a dialogue, 'Mechanical Jane," the star artist undoubtedly being June Hastie, who, as the clockwork housemaid, was an absolute scream. M(-Mahon) an cJd fashioned fairy, and "Puck- (Bobbie Boylen), a fairy with up-to-date ideas: Hortensia Paragon ( Gracie Hymus), a conceited maiden, and Dolores Dumps (Mary Holland), a miserable maiden. The cantata called for much memory training, whilst the children carried out their parts with confidence. Their voices were well trained and clearly heard throughout the house. The contributions of the choir were a noteworthy feature of the preseartation.

PERTH, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1937.
The Soul of Conservatism N such an age, where social injustice is rife, it is understandable that men of good-will should be precipitated into one of two camps, of the Left or of the Right. It is further inevitable that both sides should be extreme, the proletarian dictatowhip denying all individual and personal rights, and the authoritarian state suppressing their exercise in the interests of the supposed commonweal. It would superficially seem commendable to seek the middle way in such a crisis, were it not unhappily true that the "via media" has been seized upon by the economically comfortable, and by the captains and apostles oi capitalism to mean the preservation of the present order. It is the refuge of the weak, thelcowardly, and the lazy. It is most especially execrable in Catholic life precisely because the Pope has declared that a remedy must be found and found quickly. • The Papal words imply, therefore, that there is a disease, and that it is chronic, but that there is also a remedy both drastic and urgent. Hence there is really only one unforgivable social sin, and that either the desire or the doctrine to leave things as they are. If argument with conservatism leads anywhere, it should be insisted ,that there are two camps and not three. Capitalism is not a via dia, despite its outward sham of safety and respectability. Rath it is the deep pit at the end of the Left road. There , is a true economi nd political moderation, a et it is to be found in those-IiiiieketiowSta where the Christian • e is of rather greater importance than the pm% of the State.. The blood-relyionship between the conservative ah4., the Cptiimunist is again apparent in that they both keep on con ing, deliberately and ignorantly, all movements to the Right as "Fascism." Again they are found in concerted duet over the gloriès.of democracy, though aft the conservative can mean by the term is niversal suffrage, majority votes, and the parliamentary machiner in a capitalist society. The Communist. on the other hand, mea nothing- by it. It is merely the proving word which admits him to he very respectable heart of a ociety riddled with Liberalism aiitkphilosophically. identical with his own. But it is interesting and itnport!ant to note that at this historical moment, which is in part characterised by coups and direct action, and whose abuses are certainly clamouring for something radical, the old, old shams are being maintained almost completely by a vocabulary. • In all sobriety, no man of good-will could, to-day, remain a conservative if he had had a classical instead of a technical education, and so was competent to understand the meaning of words In a few generations people will refuse to believe that any ciVisation could have plumbed the depths of sophistry so thoroughly that the Qrdinary vernacular completely smothered the intellectual concept which,it was meant faintly to mirror. And here again we have the conservative and the Communist propagandist (where he is a suspect minority) locked in an eternal embrace, vowed equally to shun straight thinking and plain talk. There is a remote and ineffectual world, exemplified by the placid press. where men are damned by platitudes and euphemisms. The extent of our society's rottenness and corruption can be measured by the fact that this category even includes the yellow-press. Can any good reason be alleged why rape and sodomy should be called *.serious offences," or pregnancy. 'a certain condition"? Is there something intrinsically repulsive about the notion of a viviparous mother? The very journals which recoil from printing the word "venereal" are the same which corrupt our youth and undermine our nation with their "medical" columns. But these are only minor instances of the ostrich tactic exemplified by the euphemism. And the euphemism itself is the merest bagatelle in contrast with the intellectual perfidy it represents. One can only react to a prolonged reading of Hansard, for instance. by wondering why so many schizophrenics are uncertified. The whole atmosphere could be purified and made expectant of social instice if only public life could recapture the language oi the man in the street. Nobody gets punched in Parliament cause there are only to he found there "prevaricators of the Two sailors have a brawl, and one is fined because one truth." was a liar. The jugglers on the stock exchange who "unload" in, time on to widows and country, parsons. escape only through the meaning of the xvorti "business." Tf the papers, untrammelled by iniquitous libel laws, which penalise the truth, could announce that Mr. , the well-known swindler and 'sweater, had returned from a trip to Vesuvius, there would be hope for this civilisation. It was so in the ages of Faith, not only in literature, 'hut even, in theological and notably in political controversy. However, the ugly conservative shamming will continue until the outbreak of the revolution in the Terrace can be described as an "unfortunate incident."

St. Patrick's School. 'South Perth parish has three leaves like the shamrock. The main one is finished, the Church of St. Columba. The second is on the way, the ChurchSchool of St. Patrick's, in Carey-street, which we hope to open early next year. The third, St. Brigid's, will eventually be built at Thelma-street, Como. We dare not make St. Patrick jealous, so we are building a more ambitious school than Ntwe had antic?. pated. Carey-street is some 90ft. over sea level, and is in a commanding position for the new development of The Road this growing suburb. Board is contemplating a road scheme in this area, which will attract new homes. Transportation is excellent, for the South Suburban buses have their final pick-up near the site. We are providing for the future by acquiring a large block capable of accommodating all the buildings of a parish in the years to come. In the interval it will be a big load for us to carry, but face it we must if there is a spark of missionary zeal in the parish. St. -Patrick's is being built to stem the leakage due to distance and perhaps indifferent homes. We feel sure that the parishioners will respond to that, the highest appeal their Faith can make. By direct giving we are hoping to pay for the land before the school opens its doors. Sc far the response has been only fair. It is a very selfish attitude to look at the beautiful Churct of St. Columba and say that will do me, and let the others look out for themselves. That, unfortunately, is not uncommon. But that way of looking at such a new spiritual centre, erected to save homes and children for the Faith, is not worthy of any Catholic. In the name of St. Patrick and his straying flock around Kensington, we appeal for help. St. Patrick wants a statue of himself for his own school— any client of that gi-and old Saint to honour his wishes? He also wants families to, donate a desk to his school. At the moment there are 32 desks awaiting sponsors—no, that is not correct. only 31/, for half a desk is promised. S. Patrick never let any parish down yet, that is why worried parish priests the world over call so many churches after him—the Saint helps to pay for them.

Subiaco Children of Mary Retreat. The Retreat conducted by Rev. Father Cahill, C.SS.R., was brought to a successful conclusion last Sunday morning. The attendance both at the early Mass and the evening lecture had been excellent throughout the Retreat. A very pleasing feature was the reception of a number of Aspirants and Children of Mary into the Sodality. On Sunday morning after the general Communion at the nine o'clock Mass, 58 of the members gathered at St. Joseph's Hall. where light breakfast was partaken. We feel sure that the good resolutions formed during the Retreat will result in an increased attendance at the monthly Communions and meetings. Holy Name Society.

PLAN A POLICY krY0UR HEALTH
Mass will be celebrated on Sunday. November 21, at Gosnells, 8 a.m.; Queen's Park, 9.30 a.m. ; Armadale, 7,45 a.m.; Karragullen, 9.30 a.m. Orange 28: Sunday, November Grove, 8 a.m.; Queen's Park, 9.30 a.m.: Kelrnscott, 8 a.m. ; Armadale, 9.15 am. Personal. We regret to chronicle the deaths of two of our parishioners, the late Mr. George Brooks, of Guildford-road, and the late Mr. Martin Kennedy, of the Kew-Pie Tea Gardens. The Requiem Masses at Queen's Park were attended by many friends of the deceased. To the sorrowing relatives we tender our sincere sympathy. Her many friends were surprised to learn that Mrs, J. Barry, of Hamiltonstreet, was removed to hospital on We trust that this ar Monday last. ,dent supporter shall soon regain complete health and that her 'happy smile shall not be missed for long from our parochial functions. Seen in Queen's Park on Sunday was Mr. T. Ahern, who recently returned on the "Wings of the Morning" from a prolonged visit to other climes.
Dolet Take Chances health is priceless. Why leave it to chance when there are definite laws of action ! Fresh Air —Exercise--Right Thinking— GOOD Cleanliness Correct Eating—Sound Sleeping--Balanced Recreation
are principles of health which return in fullest measure the well-Oeing Nature intended. The price of carelessness represents a heavy burden. Should minor ailments appear, shift the cause quickly and safely with `ASPRO.' Don't take chances with unproved medicaments. Keep to `ASPRO' which gives world-wide service in quick relief. It has been proved that 'ASPRO' does its work without in any way harming the heart or stomach or leaving dangerous after effects and that it is PURE and SAFE. Always keep a packet of `ASPRO' handy in the house.
The Queen. The grand title, "Queen of Queen's Park," grows more attractive as the election day approaches. The enthusiasm of the various contenders becomes more infectious and spreads further afield. What was till recently a purely local civil war, is fast becoming an international struggle, and volunteers are swelling the ranks. Some of these were in the front lines on Saturday evening last and again on TuesWe understand that a further day. and much larger contingent are due to land at Maddington this evening (Saturday), where Princess Joan's troops, marching to the music of Ron Moyle's Radio Band, are concentrating.

Dear Mr. Micawber.--Tiddles says I should call you Wilkins, but I do not like to presume, as I really have not met you except when Charles Dickens introduced us to each other some forty years ago. The Princess is excellent, but I am sorry to say she accused me the other day of having "got very grand" since I went • abroad, so I'm not too sure where I stand now in her royal affections.

"Would Jesus venture to take the initiative and violate the Sabbath before their eyes?" Reading aright the evil workings of their minds, the Saviour unmasked them. "Is it lawful," He demanded, brusquely, "to heal on a Sabbathday?" Divided between the prejudices of their sect and the fear of appearing devoid of pity, the Pharisees looked at one another and found no one ready to reply. Their silence left the Saviour full "Taking the liberty of action. sick man. He healed him and sent him away." Then, addressing the Pharisees. He declared (as once before, in the case of the crippled woman) that He w as justified by their own conduct.

Batting first, Scotch opened cautiously and at lunch had lost 4 wickets for 105 runs. Thompson (77) and Wilkinson (56) later speeded up the scoring and enabled Scotch to close the innings at 7 for 256. Clohessy, 3 wickets for 70, was C.B.C.'s most successful bowler. A fter a disastrous beginning, with 3 wickets down for 14 runs, Alan Edwards (88) and Ken Kelsall (49) brought the score to 137 in a magnificent partnership worth 123 runs before being separated. Edwards' innings was particularly fine, and his chanceless display included 14 boundary shots. C.B.C. had made 160 runs for the loss of 5 wickets at 6 p.m. Scores: Scotch College—First Innings.
