"Caught you this time, haven't I?" said the constable, as he made a grab for the lad. "Not quite," came the boy's reply, as he neatly dodged beneath the -outstretched arm of the law and dashed off down the street. The constable, thinking of his sergeant's stripes, followed, until suddenly the boy wheeled round, dushed back to the door of the jeweller's shop and knocked loudly on it. He was immediately let in, and the policeman, running up completely out of breath, was just in time to hear the boy exclaim: "I say, dad, I've found a champion way of training for the school sports!" Many stories, some true, some—well, not quite so true, are told about the remarks of schoolboys. A well-known headmaster vouches for the accuracy of this one.

BY REV. DR.

R UMBLEmsc Basque Priests and The Pope W.H.C.H., Ayr, Qld.: I enclose a document in several languages which is being freely circulated amongst foreigners in N. Qld. It is a copy in English, Italian, Spariish, and French, of a letter sent to the Pope by some of the Catholic priests in the Basque provinces of Spain. Would you give your opinion of the veracity of the statements contained in the letter? it makes four basic statements: (1) That the Catholic Church has been respected and protected by the Basque Govt.; (2) that bombing by aeroplanes in Franco's service was responsible for the destruction of Durango and Guernica 13) that Franco falsely accused the Basque Govt. and people of responsibility for the destruction by incendiarism and mining; (4) that the Basque clergy are completely loyal to the Catholic Church and the Holy See. To those four statements I reply that the first is to a great extent true. The Church has been r espected by the Basque Govt. -The second is only half-true. Durango was destroyed by Franco's aeroplanes. But Guernica was not. The third is false. Franco accused, not the Basque Govt. and people, but t heir Anarchist and Red allies, of d estroying Guernica ; a charge that has been proved to the hilt. The fourth statement is not true. For whilst the Basque clergy continue loudly to profess their loyalty to the Church, they refuse to obey their own Bishops in their blind adherence to a mistaken policy. The Wily Communists. Who would have knowledge of a letter sent to His Holiness the Pope? The letter was not really written for the Pope. but for diffusion to the world as having been w ritten to the Pope. The Basque people in certain localities. t ogether with their clergy, are separatists who do not want a imited Spain. The Reds capitalised their distinct nationalism, d issimulated their own Comrnunisti hatred of religion, and promised Basque independence if Franco were defeated. The Basques fell for it, and committed the tragic error of throwing in their lot with Communists and Anarchists who cared absolutely nothing for Basque ideals. The wily Reds persuaded some c f the Basque clergy to write a letter to the Pope, and they did s o. handing copies to the Reds for whatever purposes they pleased. Why is it printed in four differ-eht languages and circulated? For propaganda purposes. even it was written with that inten:ion. The printing of the leaflet in four different languages is to intensify its usgfulness.

Marconi's first Nvife was always an Anglican. Marconi himself, though baptised a Catholic, had been brought up as an Anglican by Protestant relatives He returned to his Catholic faith only in later years. 'When he contracted his first marriage he did so in the Anglican Church, but with no intention of binding himself for life. Nor had his Anglican wife any intention of making an irrevocable contract. That they could believe in good faith that a temporary contract would justify their living together as husband and wife shows that they were not rightly instructed concerning the essentially permanent character of Christian marriage. That statement is erroneous. It happens to be correct.

THE RECORD

the See of Cochabamba, was deprived of his bishopric and excommunicated by the Pope? Bishop Jules Garrett, of Cochabamba. Bolivia, was deposed and excommunicated by the Pope in December, 1929. He was accused of disgraceful conduct, and of offences against both the commandments of God and the laws of the Church. The Pope summoned him to Rome; and there in a judicial trial, Bishop Garrett was found guilty of the charges made against him. He was thereupon degraded and expelled from the Catholic Church. Is it true that he later officiated as an Anglican clergyman? Yes. Haying been expelled from the Catholic Church, he sought a position in the Anglican Church, was accepted. and given a place as curate in Porto R ico.

Is he still alive? W hen 1 last heard of him, he was. I have not heard anything to the contrary since. He accounts for his change by saying that he left the Roman Church because he could not believe In the infallibility, nor in the jurisdiction of the Pope. But he did not leave the Catholic Church ot his own accord, nor was he faith ful to his duties in that Church. Doubts about the infallibility of the Pope came to him only when the Pope became certain of his criminal violations of his grave obligations: and he rejected the jurisdiction of the Pope only when that jurisdiction had teen used to expel him from the Church. Rite of Episcopal Consecration. Three Bishops usually take part in the consecration of a new Bishop. That is the usual practice and the normal law in the Catholic Church. Could a Bishop be validly consecrated by one Bishop only? Yes. But, whilst the consc cration would be valid, such procedure would not be lawful save under special circumstances and the approval of the Holy See. Why does the law require three Bishops? The law dates from the earliest ages of the Church. The reason for it is probably to be found in the fact that early heretical sects were consecrating Bishops indiscriminately and multiplying c laimants to various bishoprics. Disputes arose, not only as to v alidity of consecration, hut even as to the lawful consecration of some Bishops. As the matter was too important to permit the risk of doubt, the Church insisted that, in the consecration of lawful and genuine Bishops, three other Bishops in communion with Rome would act as her official representatives.

It merely symbolises the fact that all priests share in the one priesthood of Jesus Christ, and that the same priesthood is being conferred by the Bishop on the present candidate which his fellow priests have already received. How does the Catholic Church discover the validity or otherwise of the ordination of schismatical Bishops and priests? By a careful scrutiny of the Tedentials of those front whom they receive ordination, an examination of the form employed for the purpose, and a close study of the intentions of the participants, whether directly or indirectly manifested. Origin of "Irvingites." What is the Irvingite, or so-callApostolic "Catholic ed Church?" It is a comparatively new Protestant sect, which really commenced its existence in 1835. The members repudiate the title "Irvingites." denying that they owe their origin to Edward Trying. as is commonly maintained. How did this church originate? Its history must begin with Edward Irving. who was born in 1792. Irving became a Presbyterian clergyman, who preached with great success in Glasgow and London. He was of a mystical turn of mind, and got deeply interested in biblical prophecies. As a result he began to preach the imminent coming of Christ. enkindling considerable excitement. In 1833 he was deposed and expelled from the Presbyterian Church for heretical teachings about Christ. but the majority of his congregation adhered to him, and a new form of Protestantism was developed. Irving thought that the special gifts of the Holy Ghost to the early Christian Church and the Apostolate itself, were restored to him and his followers as a pre-

paration for the Second Coming of Christ. He died in 1834. In the following year his followers organised wh.at they called the "Catholic and Apostolic Church," under the fond delusion that the mere taking of these names would indeed render theen Catholic and Apostolic. In reality, as I have said, they hut rotnied a new Protestant sect. Their Doctrine and Worship. What are its main doctrines? The Irvingites claim to accept the Bible as the inspired word of God, together with the Apostles Nicene. and Athanasian Creeds. They believe also in the gift of tongues and the spirit of prophecy in their midst, and live in expectation of the early- coming of Christ. Tithing is part of their religion, or the giving to the church by every member of onetenth of his earthly goods. Their worship is based on the Eucharist, but they deny the Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation. In 1842 they drew up a liturgy based on Greek, Roman, and Anglican rites, , making use of Catholic Mass vestments. If it is an episcopal church, whence does it derive its sacerdotal orders; and are those orders valid? The Irvingites are vaguely episcopal. though they have no Bishops in the ordinary sense of the word. They believe in a fourfold ministry of prophets, apostles. evangelists, and pastors. According to them their apostles alone can minister the Holy Ghost by the laving of hands, and alone have final doctrinal au.thority. Their apostles, therefore, would be equivalent in their view to Bishops. They claim that this ministry is valid if only by virtue of the direct communication of the Holy Spirit. But the whole thing is a structure of religious imagination opposed to the teachings of the New Tetatnett. And the Catholic Church certainly rejects their "Orders" is invalid.

N editorial note in the Vatican newspaper, "Osservatore Romano" denies the rumour circulated through the European Press that the Holy See is supporting Japan's activities- in China. "Although the false and insinuating character of this rumour is obvious and evident to all who know the principles inspiring the Holy See's activities," says the. "Osservatore," "the Holy See, recognising the harm such false news may cause, especially to the Catholic missions in China, hastens to deny the whole story, declaring that nothing in it comes from the Vatican authorities, that it is altogether a false and manifestly insinuating invention." The rumour was originally issued by the official Domei Agency in Tokyo. The Vatican's relations with China are excellent, declares the "Osservatore," particularly as it is a missionary country. Throughout the Sino-Japanese quarrel the Church has carefully refrained from interfering on either side, recognising it as purely political affair. When .1apan took over Manchukuo the Holy See refused to admit its sovereignty until Japanese rule had been definitely established. A rchbishop Costantini. former Papal Delegate in China and now Secretary of the Congregation of Propaganda, has declared on this subject that although the danger of Comtnunisin is fully recognised at the Vatican. the missionaries have been instructed to confine their activity exclusive'v to their apostolate and to keep out of all possible political controversy. VILLAGE BUILDS OWN CHURCH WITH NO OUTSIDE HELP. Work Begins with Communion and Ancient Ritual.

HE inhabitants of a poor little Gascony village, France, have started to build a new church entirely on their own, with no outside help or material. They began the work after ttie year's harvest was brought in, and they will continue through the winter, hoping to finish their task before next spring calls them again to other tasks. All are taking part, men, women and even the children. To begin the building the people of the village—Leojac—placed all their tools before the sanctuary over-night in the delapidated old church. Next morning they attended Mass, re-ceived Communion and heard a special sermon. They then walked in procession to the site where the priest cut the first turf.

Why Children of Mary Do Not Marry They Seem Too Holy to be Homely.

ATHER Alfred, C.P., who spoke at a rally of Children of Mary at the Albert Hall, London. recently, told the story of a parish priest who said he was going to suppress the Children of Mary in his parish. He explained that it was because the best girls of the parish did not get married. The young men considered them unnatural and found them difficult to get on with. Consequently many of them married Protestants and there were fewer Catholic homes. Our Ladylike Homes. This, said Father Alfred, was a real danger. When women set out not just to become ladylike, but to become Our Ladylike they inspired in men shyness and diffidence. Women are, as a rule, bv nature more sensitive and spiritual than men. A good man reverences a real woman. And this reverence is her strong point, but it may become a source of alienation. A man may find her a hit too spiritual to be really alive. Seeing Children of Mary constantly at their devotions may fatally reinforce this feeling. To remove this difficulty Father Alfred suggested that the Children of Mary sliould take more interest in social affairs in the parish, in whist drives, dances and study circles. Then young men will get a chance of seeing them in ordinary life and will see how homely and nr.:iira I :hey really are. In stressing the greatic,.: virginity we are incline' t.1 forget the greatness of Christian marriage.

The Subiaco Military Band has been requisitioned for the afternoon, and what could be more entrancing ,han to have afternoon tea to the strains of sweet music?

And, remember, the wholr ef the nett proceeds go to the Home o; Peace, so let us see what we, the Catholic Women's League, can do for such a deserving charity,

Minimum and Maximum. As things are, both in life and in the Church, necessary and free, so there exists' a division between Catholics in their attitude towards them, for there are minimum Catholics and maximum Catholics. The minimum Catholics are those who do their least possible best, without endangering their souls; the maminium Catholics are simply those Catholics who do their level best. I am not libelling the minimum Catholics, for they are not displeasing to God; they do what He tells them to do, and there they stop, as they have a perfect right to. do; but their position has its danger. For it is natural to man to look upon certain things as necessary, and others as free and in a way superfluous, which has this gfreat advantage, that when one happens to be tired, or too busy,, one can always omit the things that are not of obligation. A maximum Catholic, not feeling up to the mark, will find relief in giving up Benediction for one day, or the Rosary, or a practice which is not essential. A minimum Catholic can find no such relief unless he gives up what is of obligation. His duty is ill protected against his own instinct for change. He only does the least he can do, so he must go on doing that least he can do or sin. . The maximum Catholic has his duty well protected. for, as he usually does more than he is bound- to do, it will never occur to him to omit anything of what he is bound to do: he will simply omit what he is free to do, and so stand secure in his faith and his loyal duty.

MAE WEST'S CANDLES. "Mae West is not a Catholic and never has been a Catholic," writes Father Daniel Lord, Sj., in an article syndicated in Catholic newspapers in the United States. Father Lord says he has often heard that Miss West is a Catholic—"it's even been said that she is a daily communicant." The talk of her being a Catholic seems to rest entirely on the fact that "she is a great burner of candles." "The reason for that." says Father Lord, "is this: Once on a time, she had an Irish Catholic maid. Mae West was about to open a play in New York and the lighted a candle for maid said: you and the new play, Miss West.' The play was a vccess. and the actress-author decided had candle that the lighted brought her luck. "Thereupon she began the practice. of lighting candles and has c ontinued it ever since."

PERTH, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1937.

A Stabilised Society= lavery VEN among Catholics the writings of Mr. Hilaire Belloc are not universally acceptable. It is claimed that the reason for this is a certain dogmatism and over-weaning confidence on the part of Mr. Belloc. It seems rather to us that Mr. Belloc is unceasing-ly irritating because he is invariably right., Over twNty years ago, fol instance, Mr. Belloc wrote "The Servile State," in which he maintained the thesis that an unstable capitalist society, such as ours, would endeavour to find some solidity through compulsory labour. In other words, the world would revert to that system of slavery which prior to the conversion of Europe to the Faith, was the fundamental and immemorial social institution of humanity. In Australia anyway, it seems quite likely that this generation 'shall see the fulfilment of this prophecy. For there is an unholy alliance between all political parties and newspapers to secure the introduction of a system of National Insurance, which is nothing more or less than an organised system of slavery. If it can be effected, and there seems to be no formidable opposition, it will mean that the present order of society may he perpetuated indefinitely, and that the cause of social justice may as well be shelved. National Insurance may well be the last bold card to be played for the stake of whether the present order will persist. CapitalOnly the ism has been decaying over a considerable period. patch.-work pieces of time-serving politicians has made its survival possible. Incredible humiliations like the dole have been thrust on the workers, but there are depths to which human nature, in the generality, will not sink. It should be a matter of earnest prayer and of vigorous action by Catholics all over Australia that National Insurance will be decisively rejected. The only people whom it will insure are those few anonymous gentlemen who have concentrated in. their grasp all the sourcess of wealth in this ComAnd, it will insure them against the inevitable day inom-yealth. o f wrath and reckoning when the working masses will revolt against the men who have stolen their property, and reduced them National Insurance bids the to a sub-human condition of life. workers abandon all hope of economic independence and equality of opportunity. It would throw them hack on the charity of those men who have already deprived them of justice and the right to live as men. It represents the setting in of the process of decomposition in the corpse of democracy. But even National Insurance is not the end. It is merely the bold coup which will make the end, compulsory labour, possible. Once Australian workers accept the disgusting pittance which the charity of the rich will be willing to pay. the Government authority will force them to accept any. work that 'is offering. Refusal will mean that the worker will be classified as unemployable and deprived of the proposed insurance "benefits." The National Insurance proposals will also be the final expose of exactly wh!-,t democracy means in Australia. Our Press and our politicians never cease crying out against the Caesarism of Italy. the oppression of the German dictatorship. and—more softly—of the inhuman bureaucracy of Russia. But all these insufferable tyrannies will pale into insignificance compared with the God-State that will be set up in Australia. Unemployment will be a recognised, permanent feature of social life, and the already underpaid workers will be made to pay the State so that the State will be able to pay them a ridiculous slave sop in hard times or alternately compel them to such labour as the State sees fit. We will not suffer such things. We want justice and not a dirty sham calling itself charity. We do not want slavery but rather a decent income as the prelude to the ownership of property.

Catholics know well enough that economic conditions give rise in some measure to the practice of birth -prevention. In Australia and New Zealand, however, this argument lacks force. Catholics also know that economic duress is used as a pretext for immorality. In any case the remedy is social justice and not lust. 41.4•~4,04.04p#,,I4k

"That Xmas is coming, And the goose is g.etting tat." Personal. We offer to Mrs. MacNamara, of South Como, our sympathy on the death of her husband last week. He was a "rambler from Clare," gone home to his reward after a useful life, during which he kept the Faith, and handed it on to his large family, now scattered and married throughout the State. Late this afternoon (Saturday, November 27), John Rae Walter, formerly of Katanning, will leacl Catherine Anne Keenan to the High' Altar and persuade her to change her name. The bride will be attended by a bevy of beautiful maids from the Keenan household. Gee, but the young bloods of South Perth are slow and dull witted if they allow some "foreignPrs" to captu,e those maids!

Annual School Concert. Weeks of hard work on the part of the Sisters and children of St. Joseph's Convent culminated on Thursday evening, 18th. inst., when the annual grand concert was held in St. Joseph's Hall, before a very large audience. The programme presented was a lengthy the one, and judging by applause which greeted each item, it ;net with general approval. The bill was well varied, lovers of singing, both solo and choral, were catered for, and the manner in which the performers carried out their parts reflected great credit on their tutors. A t the conclusion of the concert, Rev. Father Brosnan thanked all who had helped to make the function a success, and expressed his appreciation of the attendance: he also complimented the youthful performers on the excellence of the entertainment they had provided. The programme opened with action songs by . the babies, followed by a piano trio, "The Minstrel Boy,- played by Misses Flynn, Nursey and Woods. The school choir was heard to advantage in "A Little Sound" and "Under the Blossom That Hangs in the Bow." The free gymnasium and pyramids by the boys, and the drill and marching by the girls, were well done, and reflected great credit on their instructor, Major Saunders. Well-merited applause was given to a song and dance, "Jolly Jack Tars,- performed by the senior An item which took pride of girls. place in the /first part of the programme was the "Irish Country Dances," performed by a dozen senior girls, and their work was first-class, this being attributed to the dancing instructor, Miss Peggy Esler. In the second half of the bill, a violin solo was given by Mr. F. Hadley, while a character song, "The Kinky Kids' A thorParade," was also presented. oughly enjoyable evening was brought to a close with the performance of a play entitled "The Madcap Months," in which a great number of children took Although it was rather long, part. the play was full of interest and the parts were well carried out.

THE CONCERT.

One evening recently, a most unusual sight was witnessed at West Perth. About 7,30 p.m. a queue of people formed from the gates leading to the Parish Hall right along to and across • Aberdeen-street. The event was a grand concert organised by the Rev. Father Valentine, in aid of the St. Vincent de Paul Society, and given by the Singing Students of the Convent, assisted by Rev. Father Valentine, Messrs. F. Burke, G. McCarthy, J. Brown, S. Lynch, and Piper Campbell. The hall was packed to capacity with an appreciative audience, who enjoyed every item of the excellent programme presented. Among those present was the Very Rev. Dean Brennan, P.P. Some. fine choral numbers were given by the "Singing Students' Choir," while the following members were heard in songs delightful to listen to: Misses E. Straus, M. Buggy, P. Brennan, F. Nowotny, P. Tweedie and E. Clarke. J. Newsham and Miss Evelyn Beston gave a splendid interpretation of -An Indian Scena," in which the beautiful Indian lyric, "Minnetonka," was featured. The annotation was delivered by Miss Phyllis Tweedie, and the violin obligato feelingly rendered by Miss Denise Dingwall.

1he children's concert on Wednesday, November 17, was a great success. The house was crowded and though the night was warm it was evident from the frequent and prolonged applause that the patrons enjoyed themselves, A fter the opening chorus by K. Sander, R. Curry and J. Connell, the curtain was raised, and the sight that met our astonished eyes was really beautiThe stage was crowded with ful. children, dressed in all the colours of the rainbow, and carrying bouquets of flowers. The tiny children in the front row seemed to wonder what it was all about as they gazed unwinkingly at the audience. They were as interested in the people in the hall as the people were in them; but they raised their bouquets belatedly when required and sang mechanically with the others. It 1,i;ould be too tedious and furthermore it would require more powers of criticism than the writer possesses, to go through the different items and do them justice; but the boys on the bicycles deserve special mention. The most amusing incident in that item was unrehearsed. One of the young Oppermans, when piloting his tricycle, collided with some youngsters in the centre of the stage. No damage was done, but the cyclist did not seem to worry whether there was or not, as he coolly disentangled himself and his machine from the wreckage, remounted and rode on. It was a glaring instance of the .callousness of hit and run tricyclists. Ronnie Mahoney and Beryl Mills caused a lot of merriment in their Ronnie Ma duet. "Money Matters." honey showed that she has inherited all her father's talent for acting. Anyone who has heard him recite the "Jew's Wedding" know that there was a good actor lost in him, Ronnie had a worthy partner in Beryl. I know that it is courting trouble to single out any item for special praise, for they all deserve praise. The singing was all that we have come to expect from the children, and the dancing, elocution and drill items Miss were also well up to standard. H. Jones deserves the highest commendation for her elocution teaching, and the pupils of Miss Yates, the drill mistress, did themselves and her the m-eatest credit. The Sisters wish to thank everybody concerned, the people for their attendance, Mr. Bert Toop, for his work in beautifying the stage: Mr. Vic Egan, for arranging the lighting effects, and Misses A. Brown, R. Curry and J. Connell, the accompanists. The New Oratory. During the week we received the altar for the proposed neik oratory from His Grace the Archbishop. The altar is the one that was in the oratory in the Palace for many years, so it is a historic one. It was used for Years by the late Archbishop and his predecessors, as well as by His Grace Dr, Prendiville. We are very grateful to His Grace for this relic of the r;ast that has so many associations, and we hope soon to have a new oratory for the Sisters worthy of it.

Rev, Father Valentine received a great ovation for his cultured and beautiful singing, and had to respond to vociferous encores. His numbers were "Mate o' Mine" (with violin obligato by Miss Denise Dingwall), "An Old Fashioned Town," and "Ye Banks and Braes." Messrs. F. Burke and G. McCarthy were responsible for the humour of the evening. They kept the audience in screams of laughter during the performance oj their fun-laden numbers. Miss May Hart was heard in "The Irish Rosary," a touching sketch, by "John O'Brien." Later in the ever ing she charmed all by her splendi . dancing of the Highland Fling, to the spirited music of the Pipes, which wer:. played by Piper Campbell, who als gave a lively "Pipe Solo." Alice Hey-en, Radio artist, thrilled all with her novelty pianoforte playing. She was the principal accompaniste for the evening. Assisting accornpanistes were Mr. T. Forrestal anti Edythe Straus, A t the conclusion of the programmt Very Rev. Dean Brennan, in a pleasant speech, thanked the people for their attendance, the artists for their snlendid programme, and spoke in appreciative terms of Rev. Father Valentine, to whose untiring and selfsacrificing work the succe,,s of the e vening was nine.

Goldfields Notes

The ranks of our active Catholic laymen were further depleted last week, when Mr. E. G. Flanagan left for For the last five years Mr. Perth. Flanagan, who had been Clerk of Courts and Mining Registrar in Kalgoorlie, had been connected with every Catholic project on the *fields, but it was as President of the St. Vincent de Paul Society that he will be best remembered. During his sojourn here he gave of his time unstintingly to further the charitable work of the society, and few were the Sunday afternoons that he did not spend in visiting one or other, and generally both, of our big hospitals. Many were the cases of relief he handled and he was e ver ready to visit the needy in their homes, and to find, if possible, work During his ocfor the able bodied. cupancy of the Presidency, he inaugurand ated the church book' stall, through this medium succeeded in circ:ilating mud; sr—d Catholic literature, a project in which he was deeply interested. Our loss is great, but we rejoice in his elevation to a higher position, and kno,w that he will find scope for his charitable activities in Mrs. Flanat he metropolitan area, gan and family will transfer to Perth in about a fortnight's time, and this good Catholic family will be seriously missed when next year comes the r ound of Catholic social activities to tuch they ever lent a ready hand. Mr. and Mrs. A. Whitside, ot Lam. ington Heights, left during the week t o enjoy a well-earneu holiday touring t he south-West. Our sincerest sympathy is extended to Rev. Dr. Goody in his recent sat bereavement.

First Communion at Highgate It has long been the established custom in Highgate Hill to associate the Feast of Christ the King with First . Holy Communion, and so it was that )'2. 0},on Sunday, October 31, a magnificent . congregation, overflowing the large ';eating capacity of the Sacred Heart . Church, assisted at the 8 o'clock Mass n honour of this double holy event, The little First Communicants, numbering about fifty, occupied reserved ,eats in front of the altar, which was beautifully decorated with the choicest of flowers, but surely no lovelier wreath had been twined for Christ the King that morning than that precious garland of pure young souls tv aiting so eagerly to receive Him. During Mass all were edified by the devotional singing of the little ones, and it was a soul-stirring moment for that privileged congregation, when, as one harmonious whole, the children recited aloui their little Acts of Preparation. A t the close of Mass, Rev. Father Wallace spoke a few words of congratulation to the happy uchildren, and t o the parents he addressed a very special appeal. urging them to be ever mindful of their great trust, by never giving bad example. Having made their thanksgiving, the little band of First Communicants, f ollowed by an admiring crowd of relatives and friends, made their way to the Convent School Room, where a dainty breakfast had been laid amidst a profusion of flowers and streamers, the Papal colours of white and gold predominating. Very Rev. Father Wallace, Adm., and Rev. Father Henebry added to the children's happiness by having breakfast with them, and later sat with them for the customary photo. graph, which will in the course of time find a place on the school-room wall alongside other pictures of other First C ommunion Days. This brought the morning to a close, and the happy children left for home carrying away with them small Reverend of gifts pictures—the Mother to be treasured mementoes of that great clay in their little lives. * * * * '

THE RECORD siastic churches that are found in it. Besdes the Cathedral, there are churches at Bluff Point, the Cemetery, Mullewa, Northampton, and Carnarvon. We understand another architectural rvern is to be erected at Three Springs.

In conclusion, the flourishing state of the schools, the high standard of character and education impaired, the two large congregations at the Cathedral every

Sunday, the flourishing societies, the successful Communion breakfast recently held, and the great success of the recent mission, all hear eloquent tribute to the fact that in the picturesque city of Geraldton there exists a flourishing church and this is mainly due not so much as to the faith ann goodness of the people, and the edification and zeal of the clergy, 71S to the splendid lead and example set by His Lordship the Bishop, and to his foresigh% zeal and organising powers and progressive policy. — "Cathedral Chronicle." -

Glamorous Tommy Farr. Tommy Farr's rise from the T onypandy pits, where the black s weat ran from his young brow like ink, is a glamorous figure. He is the story-book warrior. The Welsh idolise him. Indeed they go beyond that. English Wignall, Trevor sports writer, and oddly enough a Welshman himself, predicted that Playboy Max Baer would thrash the life out of Tommy. His forceful articles probably had a lot to do in making Max a 10 to 1 on shot.

Excellent entries have been received, particularly in the lightweight and feather division.

MY CORN E RITES,— Judging by limited number of letters, the grown-ups among you have grown out of the Corner, or have pitched their tents elsewhere, or maybe the Page was so long about getting back into its usual position in our Weekly that it would need the Angel of the Trumpet to call the Cornerites together again. Well, seeing it is not easy to call the Angel himself to this duty, there's nothing else for it but for me to do the trumpeting with words instead of a trumpet, as the policy re• commended to Little of Bo-Peep "Leave them alone and they'll come home," doesn't seem to apply to you, and therefore does not seem a practical policy for me to adopt. I would be mighty glad then if you w ould kindly show some signs of life if you still have it in you. The time between this and December 31 is very limited, and I do want to hand over at least One Century to our credit for 1937, because living on the glory of past achievements while very pleasant to ourselves, is in no way beneficial to the Bushies. Many among you deserve my best thanks, for which I have been preserving myself from hard work and sacrifices, you have been good to the Cause, and I have just received evidence of that in the £3 14s 6d handed in by "The Five Little Murphys." With deep appreciation I acknowledge my indebtedness to the Five I.ittle Live Wires themselves, and to the following benefactors who have kept steadily giving into the children's special collection: Mr. J. D. Mooney, Mr. L. Keating, Mr. J. Keating, Mr. M. Cogan, Mr. C. C ogan, Mr. Roy Paxton, Miss Hetherington, Miss Kitty Murphy, Mr. Jim Murphy, Mr. H.

The Return of the Five Little Murphy's. St. Lawrence, South Perth. Dear Aunt Bessy,—We are rather late welcoming you home to the West, but better late than never, and we hope you had a good holiday. You were very much missed and we are glad you are back. We are sending you £3 14s 6d. from our usual supporters; some of them are away holidaying at present, and we must not forget to ask Rev. Dr. McMahon and you to pray for two of them, who died recently—Mrs. White, mother of Mr. Lionel White, and Mrs. Denis Murphy, mother of Miss Kitty and Mr Jim Murphy. They have always helped since the beginning. Mrs. Handcoek gave us some stamps and we are sending them along to you. You can send us a book of tickets on the Half Sovereign. Love from, THE FIVE LITTLE MURPHYS. My Dear - Five,--When I saw the £3 14s 6d in your letter I knew for certain you really meant all the nice things you said about missing me, and being glad I was back. _ Thank you very much for being such faithful little soldiers while Sandy and I were away, and you can be very sure that our two deceased benefactors will be remembered in my grateful prayers, as well as those of the Bushie-s' Founder. I am thanking all who contributed to your pleadings in another part of the Page; and you deserve spe•zial congratulations. AUNT BF-s9Y. Brisbane-street, Perth.

She is going to take St. Therese's name for Confirmation, as she loves her, and here is her card and the cash. -EILEEN O'MEARA. Dear Eileen,—Thank you for helping our poor little invalid to till in t he Pinkie, The Little Flower was very keen on people loving her, so when Eileen takes her name I hope she will shower the rose of good health down on her straight away, and give her love for love. AUNT BESSY. 42 Reserve-street, Claremont. Dear Aunt. Bessy,—I received your letter and also the tickets and card last Wednesday. I thought the holy picture was lovely and thank you very much for it. You will see the lucky week-end I have had. I was able to finish the card and sell all the tickets, and I want you to send me another book of tickets and a card. as I see that there are not many volunteering to help you get that Century before the end of the year, so I must make up for them--Your fond niece, EILEEN SULLIVAN. Dear Eileen,—You are just as cheering to my heart as another six months' holiday, and I only hope all the weekends will be as lucky as the one you had last week. That Century will come I'm sure, even though the Volunteers are slow, and may God bless you for being so interested. AUNT BESSY. 406 Charles-street, North Perth.

AUNT BESSY The Never _Never. Dear Aunt Bessy,—Do you mind being written to in pencil? (It all depends.) I always write my letters in bed, and I find ink has a habit of getting on the white quilt, which isn't a popular idea with the land-lady. As a matter of fact, letters in bed isn't a popular idea with her either, as elec. tricity costs one and six per unit, so I'll make this short, and just tell you that we're all very glad to see you back, and here is one of your pink cards by way of weleome. Love from, SUNSHINE SUSIE, Dear Sunshine Susie,—You evidently have not heard the ancient adage— "Write not your letters in Lest in licking to moisture the lead, Your tongue begins ailing, And all your strength failing, You can't write any more cos you're dead." Therefore, apart from my feelings on the matter, which I own, are not too receptive, refrain from Aisturbing your own conscience and your lanrua,'y's ideas about thrift. All the same, I'm delighted to see you come back to the Page with a smiling face and one m the ancient Pinkies, and if Puck's become a duck, then welcome Sunshine Susie!

Dear Mrs. Moynahan.—ManY for being so prompt with the return of butts, and if all who have the tickets on hand do likewise, I should be able to pay expenses and have sixpence on the gold piece. AUNT BESSY. November 13, 1937, Dear Aunt Bessy.—I sent you a 10s. P.N. about two months ago, and with it a little note signed "A.N." I watched the 'Record" each week, and saw no acknowledgment. so I am wondering if it went astray as I left it blank. —Yours truly, A. N. Dear "A.N.,--That P.N. came to hand about a month before I arrived back in W.A., but it came to hand and was acknowledged, though you may have missed seeing it, as there was no Page going at the time, The cash was waiting for me on return, and I am sorry you have had anxiety over it.

When I saw your letter and Sam and Tiddles saw my smile they thought they were looking at the Aurora Australis. I'm not too sure about the fairies in Coburg, but if you get an introduction to one whose initials are A.F.. he might not object to obtaining an audience for you with the King of the Coburg Fairies, for I would not like you to be airing the pink card around any church

M., of Adelaide, like several well-known gentlemen of Perth, has a special soft spot for what is known as the "holy folk," and though most of his petrol bills soak into that soft spot, the spot remains as fragrant as if it were watered by the dews of heaven, as maybe it is. A fter seeing all he showed us of Adelaide, I don't see why one cannot truthfully say it is the next best city to Melbourne, Sydney and Perth. The State has been blessed by public-spirited men who have left legacies of valu. able land to be used as recreative and educative assets for future generations The city is of South Australians, compact and neat and clean, and seen from Mt. Lofty it looked like a peaceful plain wearing on its 'out-stretched arms a silver ribbon of sea. Adelaide—the City of Roses! It fully deserves that lovely title, but I am not sure that it as fully merits the claim that "it has the most beautiful sunsets in the world." Yet I was astonished to hear someone say that it had when we got to Brisbane, and having seen breathlessly beautiful sunsets here in W.A. and parts of N.S.W, and Victoria, I asked my informant who told her that, and things explained themselves when she said, "An Adelaide lady," for I have rarely met any people more satisfied with their own State than the South Australians, and the Torens is as fair as river to them as the Blue Danube Perhaps the taking was to Strauss. of a poet's license when talking about sunsets is permissible, for only last week I heard of a little girl in Perth who became enraptured when she saw the silver majesty of a full moon -rising up- above Lake Monger, and who called on all around her to "look RI That little girl the glorious sunset." wasn't Mary Snoggins either. Which reminds me, that when recently reading someone else's account of his travels somewhere else, I smiled to come on the following passage: "We ran along a beautiful road, through many new houses, suburbs, and beau. tiful trees." On our way to Mt. Lofty, which is the drive of drives, I, too, could say "we ran along a beautiful road," but, thank God, T.M. was too careful and well balanced a driver to run through any new houses or beautiful trees, though we did run through many suburbs of houses made beatiti. ful without by the charm of carefully cultivated gardens.

This discontented transparent. son was the Jewish people, her Doctors especially, so boastful of the fact that they were the firstborn of Jehovah, and destined to inherit everything which is His on earth—The Temple, the Law, His Holy Word. Did these secfaries, eaten up with their own self-importance, recognise the likeness in this portrait? Did they at all comprehend that Jesus valued tears of peniany hypotence far above that critical righteousness? he was bidding all sinful men repent, and thereby opened wide to them the celestial banquet and the Kingdom of God? The Pharisees' sullen and obstinate blindness hardly admits of our hazarding any such conjecture; but though the Parable of the prodigal lad seemed only another stumbling-block to them, it has since saved numberless sinners from despair, for it assures them that the loving kindness of their heavenly Father is unbounded, free, and knowns no end.

Father Anthony'

HE mystery which had puzzled me so long was solved at last. Having no doubt whatever in my mind that the dying man spoke the truth, I could not compliment myself on my own ingenuity; for all my suspicions had melted away like smoke. I saw now how cruelly unjust I had been to the young priest, and I realised, in a flash as it were, how terrible had been his struggle to keep his holy oath and yet to help his brother whom he so dearly loved. His dread of visiting his brother, his secret visits to the man Bournes, his wild despair - and sorrow as the dreary days crept on, his avoidance of Eileen, all were now clearly explained. My heart yearned to him in pity, while my spirit bent in reverence before his pure and gentle nature, so firm in its sinless strength. He had fallen in a dead faint, his face upon the ground. Bending over him I raised him gently in my arms and supported his head on my knee. At my request, Kathleen .brought me a bowl of water, the contents of which I sprinkled over his pale face. His lips moved, but his eyes, which were wide open. were fixed on vacancy. Then, assisted by Father John. I carried him into the outer room, and threw open the door that the cool air might blow in upon his brow.

"Holy Saints preserve him," cried Father John. "I love him as if he were my \ own son, and it's myself that knows he's an angel born, barrin' the wings. Look up, my son, look up, and speak to Father John." The boy (for indeed, he was little more) seemed to hear the voice, and turning .his dark eyes toward his friend, his pale, beautiful face broke into a smile, like the smile of a littlq child, and he reached out his hand which the other took and kissed fairly breaking down over it and crying. It was a touching sight. revealing at it did the deep affection which the two priests of God, so different in age, temperament, and character, bore to each other; and I confess that I was strongly moved. In a few minutes Father Anthony had perfectly recovered and stood up, supported by the little priest. "You're better TlOW, my son:'" said Father John anxiously. "Sure it's a sore trial the Lord has put upon ye, but you-ve eoflt.. through it like a sainted man." As he spoke Eileen entered from the inner room. The young priest did not shrink from her now, but held up' his head, and looked her sadly in the face. "All this time." she said, quietly and almost bitterly, "you

knew the truth; you knew that Michael was innocent; you knew that this man was a murderer, and yet you did not speak!" For a moment the young priest shrank back, startled and pained ; then, without averting his eyes, he replied quietly: "I could not speak. I was bound by my oath!" "There are some oaths which should not be kept," returned Eileen, "just as there are some things which cannot be pardoned." "Miss Craig," replied Father Anthony, "you do know not what you are saying. I have kept my covenant to God, but how have I kept it?—what has the keeping of it meant to me? Besides my mother, the only living soul I have to care for is Michael, and you know well what my brother is to me. Yet I have been doomed to see him dragged into the very shadow of the scaffold. I have been tortured almost beyond my strength. Ah. God forgive me," he cried, raising his pale face to heaven, "there have been, times when in my agony I have torn my priest's robes and almost broken my crucifix, saying 'There is no God, or such things could not be!" He paused, and looked at her imploringly, his eyes dim with tears. "Sure he speaks the truth," cried Father John. "and God will reward him." Sadly and intently Father Anthony continued to regard her, until suddenly she lost all selfcommand. "Father Anthony. forgive me!" she cried, and sank sobbing at his feet. The young priest placed his hand upon her head. "Sure I've nothing to forgive," he said gently. "God bless you for loving Michael so much. and believing in him in spite of all."

Within a very few hours Miss Craig had returned to Castlebar, bearing with her the news of Rory Bournes' confession. The man lingered on. till next day, and a written statement _being prepared. he signed it before witnesses, of whom I was one. Information had, of course, to be given to the authorities, who, seeing that he was too ill to be removed, placed a police guard around the farm and held him under formal arrest. His mind unburdened of his secret, he seemed now quite indifferent to earthly things, and sank gradually, soothed not a little by the spiritual ministrations of Father John. Mr. O'Flannigan, the solicitor, lost no time in preparing the way for Michael • Creenan's vindication, but many tiresome preliminaries had to be gone through before the prisoner could be set at liberty. On tfie day fixed for the trial he was brought into court; Eileen sat in the well by the side of her solicitor, and close to the dock grasping the Prisoner's hand, stood Father Anthony. The counsel for the Crown at once rose and intimated that he was instructed to withdraw from the prosecution. "I understand," said the judge, glancing at the documents before him, "that a confession has teen made by the real criminal,

and that it is supported by several independent parties, several of whom are now present." "That is so, my lord," replied the counsel for the defence. "One of these gentlemen," "said the judge, addressing the jury, "is the daughter of the unfortunate gentleman who was se. cruelly murdered; another is the prisoner's brother, the Rev. Anthony Creenan." All eyes were turned on the pathetic figures—the tall handsome youth in the dock and the pale dark-eyed man who stood h beneath him, clasping his close "Call Father Creenan," said the judge. Amid breathless silence the young priest made his way xt, the witness table and was duly sworn. "You are the prisoner's brother ,and a priest of the Roman Catholic Church?" ad. Anthony bowed hi head. "According to the depositions before me you have been aware from the first of your brother's innocence, having received on the very night of the murder the confession of the guilty party." "Yes," answered Father Anthony. "You did not, however, make lily communication to 'the authorities? You did not even exonerate the prisoner, although you knew thal he was about to be tried for his life? May I ask, Father Creenan, if you would still have preserved silence, even if no confession of guilt had been made, and your unfortunate brother had been condemned, as he might have been, to a disgraceful death: There was a pause. The young priest glanced towards the prisonel-, and, then raising himself erect, made the sign of the cross. "The secret was not mine." he answered. "I should not have spoken." A murmur went through the court. "Not even to save your brobrother's life?" demanded the judge. sternly. "Not even to save my brother's life!" was the reply. Aria as -the murmur deepened the priest continued: "My brother knows that I would have died for him, but I could not, even for his sake, have been unfaithful to my vows. I trusted in God— my trust is justified—and God has saved my brother!" The murmur changed to a cheer; men shouted and women sobbed; then a cry came from the clock and rang out in the court. "God bless von, Anthony!" cried Michael. "Sure I'd never (1i)aatsh -e!,,asked you to break your An ind,escribable tumult followed, and in the midst of it stood the two young men, looking with infinite affection at one another. Even the judge was deeply affected. When there \vas silence again he said quietly: "Under the circumstances there is no reason whatever to detain the prisoner. As a matter of form he will enter into an undertaking to take his trial again if called upon. hut in the meantime he must he set at liberty. A few minutes later Michael Creenan sprang from the dock into the arms of Father Anthony, and. amid a scene of the wildest enthusiasm. the brothers left the court together. (To he Continued.)

A Liturgical Catechism Q. \\Then were bells first used?

the

church-

A. About the 6t11. century ; but their use did not become general till the 9th. century. From the 11th. century it became the custom to give bells a name, and the blessing of a bell is spoken of as its baptism. • Q. Of what does the blessing of a bell consiSt? A. Of the recitation of psalms, of washing with holy water, of anointing- with oil of the sick and with chrism, of incensation, and of the reading of that portion of the tenth chapter of St. Luke which records the visit of Jesus to Mary Magdalen and Martha: the purpose of the bell being to remind the people to seek "the one thing necessary." Q. What names are usually inscribed on the bell? A. The name of the saint after whom it is called, the name of the donor, of the godfather and godmothers, together with inscriptions that are often quaint and ingenious. One well-known Latin inscription on a .churchbell in Metz sums up all the purposes a bell serves, and may be translated thus: I praise the true God; I mourn the dead; - , - :11111011 the people: I ward off lightning; I convoke the clergy; I glorify f estivals.

PATRONISE OUR ADVERTISERS

-:-

A MERCIFUL GOD. If unhappily it should come about that I am unfaithful to God I know that He will not abandon me. He is so good that He is the first to speak to me, to urge me to return to Him. He stretches out His arms: Come back quickly. My weaknesses do not repulse Him, and even if I fall very low He comes down even so far. I feel His appeal within me for this remorsemvhich besets me, which grips me, is He Himself. Oh, my joy in grasping the hand which He stretches out to me—my joy in knowing God is good to such a point as that. The prodigal son runs up, accuses himself, and is about to throw himself at His feet; but no, the Father, the Friend, does not leave him to do so. He clasps him to His breast. "I have sinned . . ." is what the son wants to say, but He does not listen. Bring quickly some shoes. Make haste to kill the fatted calf! I have found my son again! It seems as ;f God were the happier of the two, and my heart melts with joy at the l<nwledge of this tenderness. THOUGHTS FOR THE, WEEK. Sunday: We are not saved from life's contrary winds, hut e are saved in them. Monday: We will never be sorry for taking sound advice. It saves many tragedies and sorCOWS.

Tuesday: Some offences are pathological—at least subjectively—and excite pity rather than indignation. Wednesday: Those families who cannot give a son to the Church should regard it as a duty and as an honour to contribute something every year towards the training of a future priest. "Four-score-and-six years have I served Christ, and He has done me no wrong, how can I now blaspheme my King arid my Saviour?"—St. Polycarp. Friday: One of the best prows that a soul is progressing on the road to heaven, and is making rapid advancement in virtue, is the being able to remain in peace in the midst of the worries of the world, the assaults of heli, and the contradictions of creatures. Be strong in this. adil mock at the attacks of the evil spirits.— St. Paul of the Cross. Saturday: The time for merit will soon be past. There will be no place for faith and trust when in Thy light I shall see light. I shall not he able then t o glorify Thee as now. ‘,-Iten I see in a dark manner and have the blessing of those who have not seen and have believed. Now is the acceptable time, now are the days of salvation.—Mother Mary Loyola.
