BY REV. DR.

R UMBLE.,, Mar Ever a Virgin

A delphi, Sydney: Recently you replied to a question of mine as to there being t wo Marys in the one family. In order to pretend that Mary, the Mother of Christ, had other children besides Jesus, you quoted St. Mark's reference to James and Joseph, Jude and Simon. as the "brothers" of Jesus. 1 pointed out that. in Hebrew. the term anv "brothers" was used tor stuck same the of -relatives blood whatever the degree of relation ship; and that it was. therefore ,quite applicable to cousins. Furthermore. I showed that St. Mark himself speaks of Mary Magdalen being present on Calvary. and also Mary the mother of James and Joseph - the hatter obviously differing from Mary the _Tames and Mother of Jesus. Joseph were not ,then. b-.olihers of Jesus in the strict serfte of the word, as You would like to suppose. You thereupon scouted the idea that there could be Iwo NIRTVF in the one family. An Inconsistent Bigot. In view of John XIX.. 25, why did you Tr.ake such 3 slinfflinr. r eply? I made no shuffling reply. W hen Nou ridiculed the idea of two Alatvs in the one family, I pointed out that there was ni. need to suppose two Marys in the one family as You wanted to understand that term. hut that it \95 enough for them to be oi the same stock, though in more !'emote degrees of blood relationship. John XIX., 25, says. "There stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary of Cleoi, has." If you now wish to insist that Mary of Cleophas was a sister of Mary, the mother of Christ in the strict sense of the word, why did you ridicule the idea of two klarys in the one family? If you do not say that she was a sister in the strict sense of the word. You concede all that I have been saying. Christian Outlook.

The doctrine you are trying to Uphold that the Mother of Christ had no other children, is m erely a "commandment of men" that the same Jesus warned us against, and it is not f ound in Scripture. I am upholding that loctrine, Will you tell me just why You want to destroy it? There !s not one jot or tittle of evidence S Other.(Tipture that Mary had any t hat children.

trine which is an insult not only to Mary, but to God, to the Holy Spirit, to Christ Himself, and to St. Joseph. The idea that Mary had other children can be held only by one utterly devoid of the Christian sense. To suggest that God so respected and preserved the virginity of Mary in the very conception of Christ, only for her to throw it away afterwards, is absurd. To believe that the Holy Spirit descended upon her, and claimed her as His own, sanctifying her as His sanctuary, only to relinquish her to another nuptial union is ridiculous. Your suggestion, too, is an insult to Christ, who was the only -begotten of His heavenly Father. As for St. Joseph, having beer told by revelation that the child to he born of Mary had no earthly

of what she called her "conversion to Christ," were, for Teresa as she wrote her "Life" years later, a period of "laxity." Perhaps she had grown tepid in her r eligious practices. She tells us that, misled by her own opinion, she had ceased from mental prayer. She persuaded herself that contemplation was "above" her; that she ought, therefore, to concentrate not on the contemplative, but on the active part of her r eligious life. Her father, himself a man of prayer, used to visit her often. He wanted her to be his instructress in prayer; but she could tell him little. Unless the teacher of prayer has himself learned from experience the lessons which he is to impart to others, he cannot teach yell. And Teresa found it so. For a time, she tried her best; but soon, seeing with shame that her father was further advanced than she, and that to instruct him as he wished was beyond her powers, she told hint that she had given tip mental prayer altogether. Her f ather's face must h.P.ye fallen, for, although he did not, for the rest of the time, talk )f prayer, his parting words were: "To talk longer would be waste of time." These words of a loving but disappointed father gave Teresa pause.

New Trials—"The Dark Night." Not long afterwards Don Alonzo died the death of the just. The r ealisation of the great holiness to which he had attained, in a life in are world with its lighter obligations and lesser graces, came home to Teresa with something of a jolt. She resolved on a change of life. She went to her father's confessor, Father ,Baron, 0.P., and laid open her soul to him. This experience director advised her to return to the practice of meditation. She did so. It was the first step to a complete conversion to Christ. Soon she began to give up such habits of life as interfered NVIth her duties to God. Her worldly friends found that she would no longer listen to idle talk. . . • But, although in this more generous service Teresa for a time Not very long after her Profound consolation, she was soo.n ill Cession, she became violently trial Desiring that all possible care to enter into her time of might be taken of her, the Super- proper. iors sent her to her father's When she had overcome her house.

The serious side of Astr*gy is exact in one respect only, the setting up of a horoscope. Two different Astrologers given tRe same data—minute of birth, day, month, year and place—should produce exactly the same map. How many mothers remember the minutes their children were born at, or care, and how many ladies want to remember the day of their birth, never mind the time, and if they do, how many of them would say so. Like the clever lady, who would have her horoscope done, but instead of giving her correct birth date. gave the year as being twenty years later. In due course a welltyped manuscript arrived and no doubt the recipient was highly delighted with it. A fter the horoscope is set up. however, surmise steps in. The Astrologer purports to judge the map. In other words he interprets to us what the meaning of the positions of the planets and the angles formed, amount to. In this judging no two Astrologers need agree although they work from the same text books. and there is no earthly arbiter to de• cide between them. Predictions.

Property and Income

HE ultimate notion of Catholic social reconstruction is the restoration of property, the conversion of our nation from a proletariat to a society of small owners, independent and free. That consummation is, however, extremely remote To such an extent, from the actualities of life to-day. indeed, that Mr. Belloc feels the task is -almost impossible." The central difficulty is that we cannot propose a general And this we scheme for restoring freedom through property. cannot do because we have no way of creating a new and effective machinery, and still more because our first task is to teach a philSmall wonder, osophy of life rather than a scheme of things. then, if the plain man who has heard of Distributism sees it as something sufficiently remote to be considered unreal. Therefore it behoves us, while keeping the ultimate goal in sight, to face up to the facts of life as they- are and attempt to distil some soul of goodness from things evil.

Our immediate task appears to be the relieving of the lot ot the proletariat, the wages slaves and the victims of Governmental charity. The only practical way of doing this at the moment is Logically, such action should have two serito increase wages. ously ill effects. Firstly, it will tend to make the serfs content with their lot, to blot out the vision of freedom. Secondly, it will tend to disintegrate the present social organisation without hope of replacing it with some ordered stability. No words can say just how bad the present system is, but every student knows the horrors of the chaos of a transitional period. The first of these evils we should be prepared to risk. It is not as though a considerable mass of the people had any real idea of freedom, still less any hankering after it.

Badmintor Association, it was decided to inquire and obtain quotes re lighting of 'or hall. etc., and to bring the matter op again at the next meeting. A team has been nominated from our iranch for the inter-branch relay race, and it should give a „good account of itself. Members are reminded to be at the picnic on Sunday, February 27.

The meeting was well attended on Thursday night. and apologies were accepted for the absence of Misses Eileen Walker, Olive Cowan (secretary), Jean Kelly, and Mary Power.

A social evening will be held at the home of Miss Audrey Anderson, 17 Paddington-street, North Perth, on Tuesday, March 1. Many members and friends are unfamiliar with this part, and the directions advised for reaching this place are to take a No. 19 tram to the terminus, arid then to pioceed to the second street on. An e xcellent programme has been arranged and everyone will be welcome. New members for this year include Misses Pat Brophy and Eileen Meagher We take this opportunity of welcom• ing three members who have recently returned home: Miss Gladys Willcock, who spent some time in Sydney: Miss Vera Nfooney, who vacated at Bunbury: and Miss Mona Walker, who has been on a cruise to New Zealand and the Eastern States.

Fremantle C.Y.M.S. Cricket. We had the wrong end of the stick in our match against the Spartans. Losing by 20 runs, the game registered our first defeat for some time, and will probably be the inspriation for better efforts in the finals. All were pleased to see C. Hansen (21) and Brian Yench (17) come to light when runs were in demand. Jack Carmody revealed his usual dexterity as our fast bowler by bagging five wickets. The besiegers on our cricketers' pocs kets are still continuing in favour of the Thrift Club, and from that aspect alone everything augers well for a bumper time at Kalgoorlie. Kevin Kelly has matters well in hand re our cricketing blazers. Tennis. Our courts are now utilised to their utmost on Sunday afternoons, and our champs and others form a grand social gathering while going through with their week-end constitutionals. General All Fremantle and the suburbs are in the know about our special river trip on March 1, as the members are boosting this trip to the full. As this date falls just a little before our forty clays of Lent, why not have a final fling at our' moonlight trip? Definite moves are being made for a Marathon wind-up dance, and all details will soon be made public. so investigate about those new pairs of pumps, chaps, and persuade our lady friends to polish the spangles for our special event. Enthusiasm was the order of the night at our sports night in the club rooms last Thursday. Our new member of the executive, Toe Sicari, is welcomed to the ranks, a, youthful and keen as any of our young members, and there is no doubt that he'll make the grade.

Trip to Rockingham. An enjoyable time was spent by members of the club last Sunday, when Rockingham our anneal bus trip to was held. Owing to counter attractions on this day, the attendance was not what was expected. The outing, however, was' a great success in all ways.

A bookmaker named Corns died in England, and his friends were desirous of erecting a plate in the church where the deceased used to attend. One asked Lord Marcus for an inscription. He sent this: "Death, the great Chiropodist, has cut off Corns." Iont Corns 'himself was known far and wide as a wit. On one walking occasion he was out with Mr. Somerville Tatersall, when a man, that the latter disliked, passed. and Tattersall inquired of Corns if he knew anything concerning the man.

(Extract from Letter). "You will be glad to hear something of the Bushie School which was held at the Convent of Mercy. Coolgardie. We had thirty-four children in all. They came from Widgemooltha. Higginsville. Salmon Gums, Grass Patch. Circle Valley, Red Lake and Carbine They arrived here on the evening of January 10, many of them tired and weary after travelling since the small hours of the previous night. "For many of them it was their First Holiday School, and out of the thirtyfour, twenty-one made their First Confession and First Holy Communion. It would have delighted your heart to see how happy they were all together from the oldest to the youngest. It as very pleasing, too, to see how earnest t hey were about their work. Some of them were so intent upon it that they asked Sister if they could take their catechisms to bed with them. so that they could study in the morning after w akening, while waiting to be called. "Sunday. the 23rd., was their Big Day. At the 8 o'clock Mass that morning twenty-one received their First Holy Communion. During the Mass they sang the usual hymns connected with that beautiful occasion of their first reception of Our Divine Lord into their souls, and their rendition was very sweet and devotional. "During their stay the children were visited by old friends of the Busbies from Kalgoorlie branch of St. Vincen% (le Paul's Society, viz., Mrs. Russell, Mrs. Whiteside and Mrs Anderson.

The Lenten season is preceded by three Sundays called respectively' Septuagesima, Sexagesima and Quinquagesima. The meaninc, of the names is derived from the rubric of the Missal, in which these Sundays are styled. "Dominica in Septuagesima," "Dominica in Sexagesima," - Dominica- in Quinquagesima," and their adoption is probably due to the use of the word

"Ouadragesima." for the first Sunday in Lent to designate the series of forty days which precedes Easter. "Dominica in Septuagesima" is . the Sunday in the seventh decade before Eater, in reality, the sixty-first day before "Dominthe great solemnity. ica in Sexagesima" is the Sunday

Ash Wednesday, in a special ceremony, the more notorious sinners, those guilty of enormous aposP ublic crimes, especially taev, fornication, adultery, murder and the like, were excluded from the Church to remain outside until their reconciliation on Holy Thursday. Meanwhile they publicly atoned for their vices. Their public penance was inaugurated by their private conFrom originally being fession.

limited to or intended for these penitents the habit of confession during Shrovetide was extended. This was partly because some of the faithful might be in doubt as to whether they had incurred any obligation of doing public pep. ance and wished to cons-uit the penitentiary.

More generally it

was purely for purificatory purMen and women desirposes. ed to have their souls in the state of grace to profit by the Lenten fast and other works of piety, for it was recognised that works done in mortal sin have no supernatural merit and avail nothing for everlasting life. Theodulphtis, Bishop of Orleans and a contemporary and friend of Charlemagne, explains the law in his diocese: "One week before Lent confession must be made to a priest that all may enter upon the holy season cleansed from their sins and established in peace with God and their neighbour." One would wish that the custom were prevailing to-day. Unfortunately, there has been substituted for it the habit of giving Shrovetide over to revelry and merry-making, and festivities and amusements that are often sinful take the place of the old-time shriving.

Message from the Holy Father

pittle or

NEWCASTLE, N.S.W. A USTRALIA

1938

To Our Venerable Brother, Edmund Gleeson, Bishop of Maitland. Venerable Brother,—We learn with pleasure that early next year, with a view to stimulating interest in the far-flung mission field of the Church, a Eucharistic Congress will be held in the important city of Newcastle, which is built on the estuary of the Hunter River—a city wellknown not only fo:. its industrial activities, but equally for it: zed for religion. It is g7attfying, moreover, to know that in response to your inv;tation, Bishops, priests and the faithful people will eagerly throng from all parts of Australia. What has been already done in preparation for the proposed C.ongress affords us satisfaction, not for its own sake alone, tut ritner b ecause there springs from it the a dded joy that your celebration will energise the life of the Christian people throughout Australia. This, indeed, was the design of the Most Merciful Redeemer of the human race in giving to it the A dorable Eucharist. It is His gift to mankind, whereby all wayfarers on the earth, casting aside the old slavery of the senses, can have eternal life and have it more abundantly. Whence it follows that for souls hungering to know God, no greater or more helpful aid can be thought of than this Sacrament of His Love, which merits all praise. while It deserves to be reverenced and made known by everyone whose heart is warmed with zeal and appreciation of God's goodness. Urged by such considerations, while We raise Our suppliant r rayer on high to ensure success Upon your undertaking, We exd to you press Our paternal wish desire Eucharistic that the Missionary b e he d • , Congress, about to the City of Newcastle,

may be crowned with blessings most generous and fruitful. Indeed, the various themes to be treated of during the congresaional sessions: the grand solemnity of the sacred functions; and the display of exhibits from missionary countries, will stir up the minds of the faithful to piety and devotion towards the Blessed Sacrament, and give them a corresponding zeal for the interests of the missions. Doubtless, too, the holding of the Congress will result in spreading extensively knowledge of the societies so dear to Our heart, and oft times commenctew by us to the personal concern of Our generous and faithful children—the Propagation of the Faith, that of St. Peter the Apostle, and the Missionary Union of the Clergy. Accompanying these, Our paternal hopes and wishes, as a proof of Our special affection, W e lovingly send you, Venerable Brother, Our apostolic blessing. With like sentiments of benevolence We bestow it also upon our clergy and the flock entrusted to your pastoral care, and on all who will attend the Congress. Given at St. Peter's, Rome, the 21st. day of November, 1937. the 16th. year of Our Pontificate. PIUS XI.
