SIXTY-FIFTH YEAR.

Original Text in Use for 100 Years Will No Be Altered Oberammergau has taken a first step in preparation for its next Passion Play in 1940 by the election of a committee, which

held its first meeting last month. It opened with a minute's silence in memory of the patrons and participants of the last performances who have died since the tercentenary celebrations of 1934. The first resolution passed decided that the traditional text by "reformDaisenberger (whose ed" version of the play has been used for the past 100 years) will again be that employed for the coming revival. This is interesting in view of the fact that a large faction has been agitating for a more "modernised" version for the past two plays, which are given usually every ten years. Several changes in the person-

nel of the committee have been made. It includes, beside the ten members of the Oberammergau local district council (headed by Burgomaster (Lang): Georg Johan Lang (brother of the burgomaster and Passion Play producer since 1922); Dr. Bogen. reider, the parish priest; Alois Lang (the "Christus" of 1930 and 1934); Joseph Schieftl, the sculptor; Max Schauer, architect; UlHohenlietner, rich musician; Willi Bierling (who took the part of the Apostle John in 1934) ; and K arl Lang, art potter (a son of Anton Lang, the famous "ChrisAn honorary member of tus"). the committee is Professor Dietiler, who has been elected to the important position of director of

Answering an advertisement for a parlour-maid, the girl signed herself as "Miss Mills." During the interview the prospective employer said to her: "If I should decide to engage you, you wouldn't expect to be called 'miss.'" "Certainly not," replied the maid, "not if you have an alarm clock." A persistent speaker at a Burns dinner was "only slightly sober." and as he persisted in talking, with no indication that he would ever stop, a voice from the other side of the room shouted, "Mr. Chairman, why don't you use your hammer and hit him over the head?" The chairman, who was also "only slightly sober," took the advice, but unfortunately missed the speaker and hit another man, who promptly fell under the table. There was a rather horrified silence, until a voice from beneath the table said, "Mr. Chairman, hit him again. I can still hear him."

'What's the meaning of 'intuition,' dad?" he asked, sucking his pencil. Father thought for a moment, then sighed. "Intuition," he replied, sadly, "is that strange instinct which tells your mother she is right--whether she is or not."

She was walking down the street with a miniature Pekinese on a leash. A huge van was pulled up to the kerb and a pair of mechanics were banging away at the engine, trying to get it When the woman and the started. tiny dog came alongside, one of the men advanced towards them, politely raising his hat.

BY REV. DR. R UMBLEmsz A Jesuit on Spain

Secretary, Socratic Club, Sydney: I quote a passage from an article in a publication entitled "Columbia." It was written by a Jesuit priest named Parsons. To do justice to the passage in question, it would really be necessary to have the whole article, so that it might be judged in the However, light of its context. I will offer some comments which may contribute to your The next few enlightenment. questions, therefore, w ill be quotations from the passage you submit. "The great tragedy of Spain is that, in the 19th. century, the working masses apestatised from the Church, as Pope Pius X. once remarked." I do not agree with that statement by Father Parsons as it stands. To say that the working ma.,ses of Spain apostatised from the Church is certainly too strong, and not true. It would be more exact to say that many of the - working class lost a grip on their religion, and drifted from the practice of it. And I agree, of course, that that was a tragedy, precisely because they were drifting from the true religion of Christ. Whilst, however, I accuse Father Parsons of exaggeration, I can well understand his over -emphasis. He is writing in a Catholic paper a kind of self-examination of Catholics concerning one phase of ,c9nditions which made the troubles in Spain possible. He does not say that this is the only cause. But he warns American Catholics of the dire results of apathy in the application of their r eligion, illustrating his warning by dwelling on the apathy of many in the a contributingChurch of Spain, as cause towards the present miseries. :\ man, grimly in earnest, and trying to shake' people out of • liable to use their lethargy, is strong words be.. yond the actual realities.

THE RECORD

Why Marry at all if Man is an Animal? BUT the case is different if man is a man

(By REV. FRANCIS P. Le BUFFE, &J., in "America.") EADLINES in recent dailies read: "Weds No. 6." "Polygamist Community Faces Troops in Brazil." "Polygamous Colony Increases. "Corespondents," in . rizona." stand "love-child," mates," love " out in bold face type and are nice terms for nasty things. Indeed, the prophets of sex are loud in our generation ,and even our "reputable" newssheets hawk their w ares blatantly. They have stripped off the decencies of life and have left man as naked as the beast and just as shameless. In his recent work, "The Future of Marriage in Western Civilisation," Westermarck. openly states: "The divorce laws of the different western countries will. no doubt, always vary in details; but I think one may safely predict that divorce by mutual consent will, sooner or later, he generally recognised by them. . . . The arguments in favour of it seem unanswerable." This is in keeping with his more destructive view that "pre-marital experience of each other" is conducive to the happiness of man and wife: and the pre-marital "affairs" of her husband with other women enhances him in the esteem of his future wife. W estermarck is frank and operi in his conclusions, as are many other modern writer: of bools and magazine articles. Given their premises. they have drawn inevitable conclusio-ns. It has

taken them a bit of time to get there; but they have arrivea. At first, in the interest of human freedom, these prophets of a new order wanted to loosen the bonds of marriage by divorce,. They have had their way; and divorcees marry and remarry an4 marry yet again, and the marrage contract has been reduced to a mere civil contract revocable at will. Those men, at least, admitted a marriage bond; and many who advocated divorce did so sincerely and with no intention of bringing chaos upon society. But why stop there? Why await a mere civil contract to enjoy the pleasures of sex? NVIty have marriage at all? For the sake of clear thinking a basic analysis will be helpful. Any man and any woman of normal physical health are the fit physical agents of reproduction, even by the most transitory union. God has made man as he is and woman as she is for one definite purpose: "Increase and multiply." Just as animals -may mate and leave each other forthwith and yet have offspring, even so m ay human beings. To Westermarck and his school, man is an animal and nothing more; and so the mating patterns of animals can fit him well. But man happens to be more than just another animal. He differs not merely quantitiyely ; he differs qualitatively. He is part animal, yes; but he is not a better animal; he is a different animal. He is so different that even his animal nature differs in kind from the brute. Man has a spiritual intelligence and free will. Being thus endowed he is subject to moral law, that is, to that sort of ordinances from God LTD which are known through man's mind, and thus lay their pressure Walter Buckeridge F 10.0., F.S.M C.. on his will though they may be DI) 0 A By Ezato.

the fit moral agents of generation. And that is w hy monogamous marriage is required by the no.turai law. By thz.. natural law here, we mean that reason a':alysing- human nature and its individual and societal requirements perceives the need of an enduring union as basic and perceiving it as basic it immediately transmits to the will a sense of obligation that such a lasting union must be entered upon, if the exercise of sex is to be worthy of man. But man is not merely a moral being. Through God's goodness he is a moral being in the supernatural order. God has gone beyond the sheer requirements of our nature. Over and above all that He must have given us if He wanted us - to be human beings, He has, in a very literal sense, graciously (that is, through Grace) given us a supernatural destiny and the means thereto. Just as by nature we are not mere animals, so by Grace we are not mere men: and since we are not mere men, we have higher privileges and higher duties than mere men. Hence, marriage, one of the outstanding privileges and duties of,man, takes on a new relation. The fit physical agency of generation is any man and any woman; the fit moral agency of generation is one man and one permanently woman united What now is the supernaturally It is fit agency of generation? one man and one woman united permanently through the SacraMan and ment of Matrimony. woman are destined for the faceto-face vision of God. and their

offspring is thus destined, top. They people not only this earth; they people the Church of God and rebuild in every age the Mystical Body of Christ; they people Heaven itself when their own flesh and blood go lionie to God. That is a high privilege and a weighty duty: and God meets the new privilege and the new duty with new Grace. Thus, He has willed that married life shall be initiated by the Sacrament and that throughout life, by reason of that initiating Sacrament, actual graces be given so that man and woman may take the pleasures and fulfil the duties of married life aright, not merely as human beings, but as members of Christ's Mystical Body, as sharers in the Divine nature and as living temples of the Holy Ghost. Man as an animal; man as man; man as the super-man•who has had his nature super-naturalised and rendered Godlike: that is the crescendo! But Bertrand Russell and H. G. \\Yells, and near-thinking prophets of a new order know naught of man except what he has in common with the animal. Granting their premises that there is no God and that man has no soul, they proceed with logic t6 aniBut malise man throughout. can they not see that it just does not work?

The stary ing or undernourished child and the desperate parent who is vainly endeavouring to make ends meet are both pitiable objects, but debt has other social consequences which, although indirect, are even more destructive. Domestic discord, the souring of character which breeds cruelty and violence, drunkenness, prostitution, theft and juvenile delinquency very often originate in those homes where parents or children have become desperate for the want of money, and while the wealthy neer-do-well is hard put to it to find an excuse for his depravity, the criminal from the depressed classes is very often more sinned against than sinning. A Social Parasite. On these premises it would seem that all civilised people would be desirous of eliminating debt as far as possible, but unfortunately that is not the position.

"You Must Say Mass

Many years ago the saintly Pope Pius X. said to a group of laymen: "You must not pray at Mass ;you must 'say' Mass." These words will not seem mysterious to us if we remember that we really are what St. Peter has called us, "a chosen generation," "a kingly priesthood," "a holy priesthood," and that Christ has made us "kings and priests of God, His Father, as St. John repeats no less than three times. They will not be mysterious if one reads a translation of the prayers of the priest at Mass. It' fact, it will become more evident why recent Popes have been so insistent in their appeals to the laity to follow the Mass with the priest, to have on their lips the prayers which are on his, to realise the obligations of their association in the priesthood of Christ.

Victims for Usury

The efforts of the Federal Ministry to provide facilities for persons of small means to obtain loans on reasonable terms in periods of temporary difficulty, might superficially be lauded as a timely expedient from a Government which appears to have no vision of future freedom for the nation. It is, of course, quite easy to say, by way of criticism, that if men were paid decent wages and manipulation of prices were controlled by the Government, that there would be very little need for loan money. -Howevei, the facts as they are, show that the Government has no intention of "interfering" radically with industry, while it can do nothing whatever to check the abuses of credit until it controls it. A1eantime, the wretched proletariat must go on and the emergencies of existence (one cannot call it life) must be provided against by a Even this, bad as it is, will national system of yawn-broking. usurers into the gutters the force can if it purpose serve some But it has no such intention. where they belong. The urgency of some such measure for the immediate relief of the poor becomes obvious when one considers that at least 40 per cent. of the breadwinners in Australia earn less than £2 per Why Governments will not squarely face the issue and week. drastically increase the basic wage, together with a scheme of child endowment, is beyond comprehension. Instead there are absurd and even criminal schemes to find and to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on immigration. It all points quite clearly to the influence of the international finance ring on national politics„and to the hopeless corruption of political life. However, here we are out of the depression, with almost half the nation's breadwinners in a state of utter destitution and degrading poverty. Therefore, they will give the poor loans on reasonBut the Government will not control this issue of able terms. credit. That will be undertaken by "private enterprise," which means that the poor will go deeper into the toils and will be exploited even more than in the past. The technique of the new usury is not itself new. It is essentially that of the hire-purchase and cash-order scheme. The borrower pays interest on the nominal sum which he was given to use, together with a weekly repayment of capital. The actual interest that accumulates • through this system compares very favourably with that charged by the most rapacious iisurers in the country. But the average wage-earner is so desperately in neen of a modest competence ,that he has neither time, inclination, nor ability to see the ultimately disastrous effects of an apparent beneSo he is constantly trapped and betrayed volent suggestion. even by the men who govern and who used to be the friends of the poor. This surely is an opportunity for the Commonwealth to reassert the traditional principle of the State controlling the nation's credit and handling this matter through its own machinery, rather than leaving the poor to the exploitation of those gentlemen whose affairs are so private that we do not even know their names. In this matter of money -lending one further point must be noted. The "West Australian," of the 26th. ult., published an article on "Mounts of Piety," which was a sneering and facetious attack on the Middle Ages and its attitude towards usury. It was further asserted that the Medicis were responsible for founding the Montes Pietatis which brought about such "striking changes ni the practice of usury." This is completely inaccurate, as the first genuine Mons Pietatis was founded in London by .the „Catholic A century later the estabBishop, Michael Nothburg, in 1361. on throughout Italy by carried was lishment of montes pietatis effectual remedy to the an apply to aspired who Franciscans, the evils of usury. They were charitable institutions of credit which lent money at low rates of interest, or without interest at all, upon the security of objects left in pawn, with a view to protecting persons in want from usurers, usually Jews. How different is our own national proposition, which proposes to relieve the needs of our Australian poor by delivering them back soul and body to the usurer and the Jew!

Catholics and Public Morality

There is no intrinsic difference between a private and public betrayal of morality; the same gravity of matter, full advertence and consent are present. But the latter is aggravated by the hydra-headed scandals that arise from its commission. Yet there is abroad a very dangerous liberalism which attempts to justify The secret trifling with morality, provided it is done in public. drinker, for example, is still an object of contempt, while the society debutante at the cocktail party is simply "a bright young thing." What would quickly be branded as caddish or indecent in a parlour is accepted as part of "a good time" on the beaches. But perhaps the most striking illustration of this type of self-deception and of public betrayal of the Church and her moral teachA ing can be had in the attitude of many towards the theatre. disgustmost the city of this gave one in recently company stage ingly bawdy exhibitions, and advertised it as such beforehand. Yet it is quite certain that a number of Catholics attended these performances, even if they did not approve them. If it is wrong to read a book which one knows from commonsense, from sufficient authority, or from advertisement to he immoral ,it is infinitely worse to support, financially and morally,

such a show as was recently in Perth. Nothing is more stupid than the attempted justification through wangling St. Paul's text about all things being pure to the pure. The Church teaches au objective morality, which means that some things are evil in thern. When a Catholic selves, as well as for their subjective effects. publicly subscribes to bawdiness in literature, music, or the theatre, he has no sufficient reply when the critics accuse hirn prurience. Again, it is a feeble plea that one goes to admire technical effects, because the same argument applies witn varying The impression left on the force to brothels and cat-burglary. public mind is that Catholic morality is only a theoretical affair, because it does not practically restrain Catholics from a known evil. It also argues that some are a little ashamed of a devotion to chastity. It is, anyhow, of little use to admire it theoreticallv and in strict privacy. #4..N4Nil,PsIINPINAP4PVP4P4N•WsOSI, ""######O###.•"dNIP#41,he•'.'"#.4s0.,

I do not believe these stories of imminent economic collapse, and, if I did, I should consider it bad policy to refuse to come to her aid. There would be some justification for the later repudiation of a Treaty dictated under these terms (hast thou heard of V ersailles?) while a freely negotiated agreement. in which concessions were made on both sides, would be a safe foundation for friendship in the future. Mr. Chamberlain's great speech in reply to his opponents marks him out as a true statesman, and his arrival is indeed an opportune one tor the Empire and ' the world.

(By M. K.) Nation after nation has been torn by civil war and revolution, but England has continued to "muddle through" all her troubles without even a suspicion of disunion. Critics say that the English prefer Order to Justice. This may be so, but Justice is more easily administered where Order reigns supreme. And, even as all efforts to divide the people were unsuccessful during the serious crisis of December, 1936, we can expect them to remain undivided in this still more serious crisis. The Communists in England have striven for years to set class against class, with no success. The only adherents they have gained have been too small sections of the "upper" class, the Liberal and Labour politicians, and the literary intellectuals. The vast majority of the masses will continue to carry on with traditional respect for their lawful rulers. It can he argyed, and with reason, that this is not wholly a good thing; that the masses should not be ready always to give unquestioning obedience to the Government. But it applies to domestic issues rather than to questions of Foreign Policy, on which the experts have to decide, and, within reason, the people have only to obey. Sooner or later, France will have to follow in the footsteps of her ally, and negotiate an agreement with Italy and Germany. But it will be much more difficult in her case, for her At people are sadly divided. any moment the extreme Left can make Government almost impossible. She cannot come to terms with Germany while her alliance with Russia exists, and no French statesman would dare to suggest scrapping this Pact, even though he knew it to he the wisest course.

The egregious "News-Chronicle" tells us that its friends are organising protest meetings all over the British Isles. The Communist Party and the Peace Councils and other subsidiary Communistic bodies are active in this regard. Mr. Attlee, after a vitriolic address at Oxford, was chaired by students singing the "Internationale" and the "Red Flag." It is unliTely, however, that the Communists and their dupes will succeed in disuniting Rumania and Bulgaria are the the British nation on this grave latest European countries to issue. The splendid unity of make away with Parliamentary the English- has for centuries Democracy. Statesmen of all been the envy of foreign rulers. countries are beginning to rea-

lise that party politics, so successful with the English and their descendants, cannot take root in any other soil. Always a source of division, the Class War tends to widen the breach and make the division more permanent. So the advent of Communism has made Democracy impossible in Europe and South America. Soviet Russia, of course, lately adopted a Democratic Constitution. and has become the Mecca for all true Liberals. That zreat Democrat, Stalin, continues to slaughter all those of .41.4.4.4.4.4.4.04.4•41.41

Stalin. It is shocking. Something must be added." And he suggested "You, master of the peoples," and several similar phrases. This is not an isolated instance which Gide tells of in his splendidly honest description of Russia; he met with the same spirit everywhere. Communism is dead inside Russia, but it continues to be exported. It is likely, however, that the export trade will soon commence to decline. The Third International will never recover from the blow it. received in Spain, regarded as "ripe for revolution." Hopes are held of a Re % olution in France, but recent trends make this less likely.

‘vhotn he does not approve. The latest tall poppies to go, guilty of "wrecking and spying," are the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and his second-in-cornmand. The position inside Russia is obscure, and the savagery of Stalin's purge is incomprehensible to civilised people. But there is no doubt that Communism in Russia is a thing of the past; that Stalin-is a complete autocrat, more powerful than Peter the Great and more merciless than Ivan the Terrible. He has rid himself of all the old Communists who made the Revolution, and of all the placeseeking new Communists who helped to consolidate his power And he is surrounded now by a crowd of grovelling flatterers. whose nauseating adulation is never-ending. Andre Gide, the French Communist, tells of a telegram he sent to Stalin when passing through Gori, where the Dictator was horn. It ran thus: "From Gori I feel the need to send you my most cordial. . . ." The official translator would not allow the telegram to go. "'You' is not enough when that 'you' is

the latest orientation of English policy is likely to lead to estrangement from Russia and recognition of General Franco. Thus, if it is not too late, the influence of the Communists in France will begin to decline. This will mean the weakening of the Third International. Stalin will realise the futility of his dreams of World Revolution and will turn his attention wholly to home affairs. Russia is ripe for a flood of Nationalism, after t wenty years of Internationalism.

Extensions to Glendalough The Rev. Mother Provincial of the Little Sisters of the Poor. who has under her control the establishments of the Order throughout the Australian States and New Zealand and Noumea, has been on a visit to this State during the last few weeks arranging for the completion of a large block of buildings known as Glendalough, on the northern shci.e of Lake Monger, Leederville. The present buildings, comprising sections for male and female inmates, day together with its dormitories, rooms, recreation and dining rooms, workshops and all necessary conveniences, however, are insufficient for the r equirements of the State, and the Mother Provincial has arranged for the immediate completion of the large western wing of two storeys, which is estimated will cost £25,000. This wing will be very completely finished, to suit their particular requirements. In addition to the ordinary hot water and other services there will be a heating system to the dormitories, living rooms. and recreation and dining rooms. which will be heated to a moo crate temperature by a steam heating service spreading all over the extensive building with the exception of the wing occupied by the Sisters in charge. The new buildings, which will be simple and severe in design, will be constructed of cement concrete, pressed bricks, and jarrah timber work. There will be fireproof staircases. and an electric lift large enough for inmates on stretchers, and all other special requirements are provided. The drawings have been approved in France, where the Order has its headquarters, and tenders will be called The architects are Messrs. shortly. Cavanagh, Cavanagh, and Allom.

Towards the end of our two months' stay in Sydney, Captain Ippy Wilson came along one day saying he had had an invitation from the Duke and Duchess of Dorrigo to pay them a visit and to bring A.B. and me along The Duke and Duchess with him. own a chain of mountains a little outside Sydney, known as the Dorrigo Ranges„ and as the Captain 'assured us we could breathe in a few gallons of extra pure oxygen without having to pay for it, I advised your aunty to accept his invitation on behalf of herself and myself, and, thanks to her wisdom in following my advice we soon found ourselves on the way to Dorrigo, and its Duke and Duchess. didn't want their Highnesses to think I was an ordinary duniwassal, so I wore the kilts Mum presented to me seven years ago, and the bagpipes that Dad brought from Glasgow, and on the back of my visiting card I had pasted a photo of some of the Primary Babies of Highgate Hill, so if anyone wanted to know much about me I intended to tell them to write and ask the babies, but nobody wanted to know anything about me, not even the Duke and Duchess. I suppose on account of me being with Captain Ippy Wilson they kind of took me for granted. Half way on the way to the Dor. rigo Ranges. the Captain's car, which w as a new Buick, began to jib a bit, and as A.B. got nervy on it, the -Captain proposed that she should get out and board the train while we continued by car.

"All you have to do is get on the train, and get out at a siding called Ilgielar, and by the time you get there we will be waiting for you." Still in a doubtful state of mind, A.B. boarded the train that was Dorrigo bound. and ....,„ 1...,....,,,.........4-4,0~-04,--"~.....

Before withdrawing from their midst the Lord wished t9 dissipate these dreams vf a tem' poral glory. High up in sight of all the listening town-folk towered that great palace which Archelaus had built. This monument of fallen grandeur was a perpetual reminder of their exiled prince and the striking features to of his reign—his journey Rome, hi.; investiture with the rule of Judea at the hands of Augustus, the Jews' bitter opposition to this proceeding, his servants' defence of their master's estates during his absence, and the vengeance which he wrecked upon his foes on his return. Out of these reminiscences still burning in the minds of His auditors Jesus saw fit to compose the Parable of the Pounds. "A man of noble birth went into a far -distant region to take Possession of a kingdom and to r eturn speedily. Nov, after calling together ten of his servants, he gave them ten mina and told them: " 'Trade herewith till 1 come.' , Tut the people of his land hated him; and they sent an embassy after him, saying: " 'We will not have this man to.reign over us.' "So, when he returned, having taken he hadpossession of the kingdom. those heh servants summoned to Whom ad given the money, that he might know what each had gained by "The first c'ame, trading saying.

"But I say unte you: To every one that hath it shall be given, and he shall abound; but from him that hath not even that which he bath shall be taken away. As for those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring them hither and slay them in my presence."

Prophetic Lesson. By its allusions to those current events which were even then changing the face of Judea, this Parable captivated the crowds, while.at the same time it answered another purpose, for it announced to the Jews who looked to find in Jesus a monarch of this world that soon they would disown Him, and in Pilate's Pretorium would repeat the very cry once uttered by the enemies of A rchelaus: "We will not have this man to reign over us!" The punishment of the rebels wouW certainly be fearful: but to the disciples, on the contrary, there was a recompense assured which was to be the more magnificent in proportion as their fidelity should and show itself more earnest eager.

On the morrow all observed the Sacred Repose, but during the late hours of that Sabbath afternoon the Lord's entertainers celebrated His arrival by a great feast, which took place "in the house of Simon the Leper."

The Late Mrs. M. Boylan A TRIBUTE. There has passed away at the ITospital of St. John of God, Kalgoorlie, a very gentle lady who, since my connection with the Page has been a constant, generous benefactor to the Cause it has made its own, viz., that of The Bushies' Scheme, and I could wish that my grateful heart would find a fitting bouquet of its own inmost thoughts to lay as a wreath of remembrance upon what was earthly of her, and what is, please God, of Heaven--her pure and womanly Catholic soul. I refer to Mrs. Marie Boylan. who was so well known and so well loved on the 'fields which were, indeed, but a portion of those varied fields which she graced during life, and from where she gathered around her sunny disposition a host of friends who loved her in life and who will moursi her in death. To those who understood the deep and tender love that bound her to her dear departed life's partner. the late Mr. Robert Boylan,I think her death would come as an expected "sorrow, yet death when it comes, no matter for how long it is expected, or with what previous resignation the heart steels itself to accept its coming, has always the same power to command our grief, and make the pall of loneliness descend upon our thoughts of the future that must be lived without the ones of whom death robs us. Twice only did I meet her, each time with Mr. Boylan. but those two occasions have held charm for me ever since, and when sometimes I have tried to analyse the why and wherefore of that peculiar charm always I have come to the conclusion that, towards the end almost of what one might naturally say was their married life, Mr. and Mrs. Boylan were still sweethearts in the truest. sweetest and purest sense of the word, which, alas, is often abused. So evident was this perfect affection, so fresh was it, and so tangible, that while I sat with them,I said into myself: 'Theirs must have been one of those marriages made in Heaven." surely yes, it was made in Heaven. for did not God claim one of its fruits for His own altar, though He, as He so often seems to do, did not give eithe: of them the satisfaction and spiritual joy 6f seeing their priestly boy raise the Host where Ged lies hid. or bless with his anointed hand and holy lips the worthy parents who had first set h:s footsteps in the paths of virtue. Truly, He who is the Great High Priest seems often to bear out in Hi way of acting those words which imply that holocausts offered to Him must not be given free of cost, for, nearly always the ordination of a son brings the sequel of sacrifice in the family circle, and nearly always that sacrifice is borne along the avenue of Death, Still, it is just as certain that He who sends the sorrow of Death and sesiaraLion into our lives brightens our desolation with the thought of that more glorious sequel of our resurrection, whereto we may confidently look for the full and unclouded reunion with those whom now we count among the dead. So may we, and those near and intimate friends of this kind and gracious lady. this model Catholic wife and mother, say for our own consolation in •every moment of loneliness those lovely words written by Father Faber: "Dear dead, they have become Like guardian angels to us, And distant heaven, like home. Through them begins to woo us; Love that was earthly Wings its flight to holier places, The Dead are sacred things, Who multiply our graces." —ACKNOWLEDGMENT.

THE RECORD

March 5, 1938.

The great Seventeenth is now on its way, And Wet Blanket has got a high fever. Won't yoti help on her hero before Patrick's Day, So the cause of her fever will leave her? She says she'll stick Sandy and me in the mireland, And take the next boat direct to old Ireland.

While the entire week passed without incident in regard to the scoring of runs in favour of those in Our Popular Personal Shamrock, things took a turn for the better late on Friday evening when a heavy parcel was handed over to A.B. The parcel jingled merrily and gave promise by its weight and sound of being well worth unwrapping, and so it was. pickles —guess again—full of Cinderella bon-bons? --have another—full of nothing?—that's where you're had entirely, for it was full of dinkum brownies to the value of 18s., and instead of the usual cork the contents were kept in place by a neat little postal note for 4s., and four love letters to Ekndy McDougall, while, as a final cheerio from all his loyal Highgaters came a cascade of silver to the value of El Os 9d. The full amount of V 2s 9d was the united effort of Highgaters and sympathisers to push on the fame of McCabe in honour of Sandy, so if anyone heard the bagpipes playing -Show me the way to go home" last Friday evening, it was only because A.B. was dizzy from counting up her pennies. Chancing to meet the Wet Blanket, she told her that Bradman was going strong and McCabe not too badly, while poor Bill O'Reilly hadn't moved for seven days. Did she meet with a congratulatory smile, Cornerites? She did not. Very cynically the Wet Blanket answered: "You're no fool! You took the best man for yourself!" Unfortunately .A.B. grinned instead of looking contrite, which brought forth the disgusted ejaculation of "You make me bust!'" Happily she proved not to possess the Think. I properties of a bicycle tyre or a balloon as she did not bust. pray you, how undignified an ending for her, and how messy a tragedy for A.B. it would have been had she really busted!

Harold-street. Highgate. Dear Old Sandiy,—All your old friends in Highgate have been sad because you have been down last in the Shamrock every week. We want you to be up top because we love you, so cheer up, Sandy! We are working our hardest to put you up, and you must help us. The other two have got too many runs. We hope you will win, because the boys and girls at Highgate are your loyal helpers. Don't be down-hearted, and we will watch out for the "Record" next time to see if you are on top. Good-bye and cheerio, from JOHN BAPTIST LYONS Dear John Baptist,—You are a grand pal for a man to have. The Shamrock has been like a bogey-m—in to me, because Aunt Bessy and Wet Blanket have been skiting about Don and Bill O'Reilly, and rubbing it in because no one would send any runs for McCabe. I have been dying Icn. the school to re-open.. as I knew all my loyal helpers of Highgate would soon take the stuffing out of W.B. and A.B., but I've a long way to go before I can get near Bradman. so we can only hope for the best. It took A.B. half an hour to count that jar of coppers, and the fun of it was that she thought they were for Bradman, so we nearly had to send for the doctor and the priest when she discovered they were for my hero. Ask St. Patrick to support McCabe between this and his feast.—Your old comrade, SANDY. Highgate. Dear Sandy,—You will be glad when you see all the pennies we have got for vou. Sister showed 115 the F.hamrocl, and we were sorry when we saw you right down last i the runs, so we hope you will be up top soon. Aunt Bessy will jump for joy when she sees all the pennies, and it will take her a long time to count them. This letter is really from all the boys in our class. hut I am writing it.-Your true friend. ALISTER MATSON. Hooray For The Highgaters. Sing a song of sixpence and when you're tired stop, I don't care for anyone if only I come top. A.B. and Wet Blanket about their heroes boast, But perhaps before St. Patrick's Day McCabe might have the most. Sing a song of sixpence. a pocket full of rye, Four-and-twenty blackbirds baked in a pie, For those birds I'm sorry, but why should I be sad, When I have you, Highgaters, to help to keep me glad? Hooray, then, for the laddies, Mister, in your class. Hooray for all the pennies within, a jar or glass, The queen inside her parlour ma': stay there eating honey. But I prefer to watch A-B. counting out the Money. —Your grateful admirer, SANDY McDOUGALL. P.S.: Dear Mister, I just, wrote that rhyme to let A.B. see she isn't the only one who knows how to write poetry. I hope ybu like it.—S. McD.

by Pilate until His entombment It takes its origin from the habit oi otir pious Christian forefathers visiting the spots sanctified by Our Lord's suffering and w as introduced into our churches by the Franciscans to satisfy the devotion and piety of those who . were hindered from making the actual pilgrimage. Images ot. episodes certain outstanding in the Via Dolorosa were set up and the people passed from station to station devoutly meditatMg on the incident commemorated or praykig vocally. In time the Church encircled the devotion with most generous indulgences As publicly practised to-day, a great deal of solemnity often atThe priest joins taches to it. his people in their prayer and is attended by vested acolytes carrying a cross and candles while as they move from one station to another the Stabat Mater is sung. The stations, in their order, are: (1) Jesus is condemned to death; (2) Jesus is made to bear His cross; (3) Jesus falls the first time under His cross; (4) Jesus meets His afflicted Mother; (5) Simon of Cyrene helps Jesus to 'carry His cross; (6) Veronica wipes the face of Jesus; (7) Jesus falls the second time;, (8) Jesus consoles the women of Jerusalem ; (9) Jesus falls the third time; (10) Jesus is stripped of His garments; (11) Jesus is nailed to he cross:, (12) Jesus dies upon the cross; (13) Jesus is taken dawn from the cross; (14) Jesus is placed in the tomb. Making the stations ought to have a strong appeal to the Faithful since no devotion more literally enables them, after Christ's injunction, to take up their cross and follow Him. A perusal of the prayers suggested for the devotion in any prayer manual will show that even apart from the indulgences to be gained, abundant spiritual graces can be obtained from their usage.

A LITURGICAL CATECHISM First Sunday in Lent. O. How are the Sundays in Lent designated? A. The first four are called after the first words of their respective intriots. The first Sunday is called Invocabit (He shall call upon me) ; the second, Reminiscere (Remember) ; the third, Oculi (My eyes are ever towards the Lord) ; the fourth, Lactate (Rejoice) ; the fifth is known as Passion Sunday, and the sixth as Palm Sunday. Q. What is the chief lesson of the First Sunday in Lent? A. Our Lord's contest with and victory over Satan are brought before us together with the Coming of the angels to minister to in our struggle with Him, Satan victory is achieved only by self-denial. Assistance from heaven can be confidently relied upon in all our efforts. The constantly recurring- versicl and response of the Office assures us of this: V. "God hath given His angels charge over thee. R. To keep thee in all thy ways" (Ps. 90). Q. What is to be noted regarding the Tract? A . The Tract constitutes a whole psalm in accordance with the ancient custom.
