Macpherson called at the laundry for his parcel of linen. "That will be three shillings," the laundress told him. "But there are only two pairs of complained, pyjamas," Macpherson "and you charge one shilling a pair, don't you?" "That's right, sir," the laundress replied, "but the extra shilling is for the collars and socks you had in the pockets." Farmer Giles was a real countryman with a mind that never went much beyond his farm and his cattle. An aunt of Farmer Giles died and left him, among other things, a real antique clock which struck the hours Giles installed the and half-hours. clock in his hall, and every morning heard it striking six when he got up.

The coster found himself in the dock of the local police court on a charge of beating his wife and biting off a piece of her ear. "Your husband has been treating you very badly, hasn't he?" asked the magistrate kindly. "Oh, no. yer worship!" came the wife's reply. "But didn't he bite a piece out of your ear?" persisted the man on the bench. "Certainly not, yer worship. I did it meself." On the day after his first—and last —boxing match, a sad and disappoint. ed man hobbled off to see a doctor His head was bandaged, his arm in a sling, his face a mass of sticking plaster, and he had borrowed a crutch. "Hurt yourself?" asked the doctor. Hurt himself! The patient grunted "Feel any pain?" asked the doctor. Feel any pain! The patient gave a second disgusted grunt. He couldn't feel anything else. "Look as though you've had an acci. dent," observed the doctor. "Oh, no," replied the patient. finding his voice at last. "Not at all." "Then, perhaps," suggested the doe. tor. "you've been indulging in some rough sport?" "That's it," said the patient. "I've been blowing bubbles." Little Mary went on a visit to her grandparents, who told her the story of Noah and the Ark. "Were you in the Ark, grandpa?" she asked. "No, my child," was the reply. "Then why weren't you drowned A little later she said to her grand. .mother: "Grannie, it says in the story that they went into the Ark two by two, doesn't it?" "Yes. so they did, darling," was the reply. The little girl gazed at her intently for a time. then asked gravely: "Who went in with you, grannie?"

"Wait a moment," said his companion; "I have an idea." He cupped his hands round his mouth and shouted "Fore!", once again. But still the woman took no notice. Then in one supreme effort the golfer shouted, "Three and eleven-three!" And the woman turned round immediately and stepped out of the way. A banker in Kentucky was in the habit of wearing his hat a good deal during business hours, as in summei the flies used his bald pate for a parading ground, and in winter the cold breezes swept over its polished surface. A Negro workman each week presented a cheque and drew his wages, and one day as he put his money into a greasy wallet. the banker said: "Look here, Mose; why don't you let some of that money stay in the bank and keep an account with us?" The Negro leaned towards him and, with a quizzical look at the banker's hat, answered confidentially: You look "Ross, Is jes' afeared. like you was always ready to start somewhere." A rural witness in a Scottish dog case related how the defendant, McLure, came up and struck him, and proceeded: "So I juist up and gives him a wipe. .Itrist then his dog came along an' I hit him again."

In has the present Life, Dr. Goodier primarily not book a roduced p calculated to answer the scholastic difficulties of students of the Sacred Writings; he set himself to satisfy the requirements of the intelligent reading public. And, in thus limiting himself to their tastes and wants, he has written in such a way as to win all. The book's subtitle—An Interpret-ation—commends it at once. The author, in fact, actually introduces Our Lord, His Holy Mother, and the Apostles as living people, living an ordinary humdrum life in an ordinary humdrum world. He describes. with a wealth of detail, the work of Christ's Mission life of three years. He has based his elaboration of the various characters on the New Testament. Ana thee are extremely well portrayed. Out Lord he depicts as the Mighty on ot God and Lord of the World, but he is also most careful to stress His perfections as a man.

We have often heard Jesus called the most perfect of men: It is a title that is thoroughly true, of course; but it is almost too comprehensive to be of much practical use. We are inclined to assent to it without investigating its meaning. Nor in so doing are we blameworthy. But, in this interpretation, definite particular perfections are pointed out. We see, for instance, at one place the perfect love of Ch '• • • for sinning Christ man; at another, His gentle solicitude f or the temporal welfare of His disciples; at a third, His filial devotion to His Mother.

It is recommended ,too, by competent authorities, as singularly suited to the meditations made by Religious and others. Dr. Goodier is himself trained in the Spiritual Exercises of St .

(2) On Abstinence Days flesh meat and meat soup are forbidden to those who are bound to abstain. (3) Lard and dripping may be used on days oi fast and abstinence, provided they be used merely as a condiment or X seasoning. (4) All Fridays are days of Abstinence. (5) All Wednesdays and Fridays in Lent and in Ember Week, and the Vigils of Christmas, Pentecost, Assumption, and All Saints' are days of fast and abstinence. (6) Monday, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays in Lent, and the Saturdays in Ember Weeks, are days of fast without abstinence. (7) There is no fast on Sundays or Holidays of Obligation. (8) St. Patrick's Day is exempted from fast; also from abstinence, unless it falls on Friday or on the Wednesday of Ember -Week. (9) When two days of abstinence follow one another immediately, the second is freed from abstinence. (10) Those who have completed their twenty-first year are bound by the law of fasting; they cease to be bound to it when they have begun their sixtieth year. (11) Those who are in delicate health, or who are engaged in exhausting work, are not bound to fast. Of course, those X who are seriously ill are not bound by either fast or abstinence. (12) Those who are not bound to fast are allowed to take meat as often as they wish on a fast day, whenever meat is allowed at the principal meal to those who are fasting. (13) Confessors, even outside the Confessional, can for a sufficient reason, dispense in individual cases in the law of fast and abstinence.

CELEBRATION OF MARRIAGE. According to the present discipline of the Church, Marriage may be celebrated at any time. The solemn celebration of Marriage with Nuptial Mass is, however, forbidden during Advent or Lent, i.e., from the first Sunday of Advent to Christmas Day, both inclusive, and from Ash -Wednesday t° Easter Sunday, both inclusive. COLLECTION FOR THE BUSHIES. I wish to remind the clergy that the annual collection for the above -named fund should be taken up on Good Friday, either at the Adoration of the Cross or whatever sacred functions will be given to the faithful on the previous Sunday, and, the offerings from each parish will be forwarded to the Admnis" trator as soon as possible afterwards., Wherever the Stations of the Cross are erected, the Sta should be publicly performed three times each week during Lent. The indulgences may be gained also privately and at anY

time.

In sermons and instructions we are told that the Mass is the greatest act in the world, that it is the continuation of the greatest event in the world, that it is the greatest treasure that we possess. We have not the slightest doubt about that: in fact it is b ecause we believe these statements that we feel that the Mass should mean more to us than a mere recital of prayers. But. what are we to do at Mass? Our difficulty, I think, arise; from the fact that we do not realise actually what the Mass is. We are inclined tb look on ourselves as mere passive spectators, not as real offerers of sacrifice. And the words we generally associate with the part which the laity take in the Mass only add to the confusion. Such words as "hearing Mass," "being present at Mass," "assisting at Mass," make us look on the Mass as a devotional exercise, a form of prayer, an opportunity for adoring Our Lord in the Blessed Eucharist. 'We get the idea that the priest alone offers the Mass and that our part is that of spectators at the offering. lii that we miss the real nature and v alue of the Mass. For we do more than merely "hear" Mass • we offer the Mass ; we do more than merely "assist" at Mass: we off er the Mass: we do more than merely "be present" at Mass; we off er the Mass. That provicitb the answer to our problem of what to do at Mass—it is our Mass; we are to act during the Mass; we are to "do this.”. as Our Lord bade us; we are to offer the Mass. Why Offer?

tim, a holy Victim, an unspotted (B r REV. J. B. CASEY, S.J.) Victim," as one of the prayers of the Mass so beautifully expresses it. Our Lord might have willed that His sacrifice end on Calvary and leave us but a memory of it. But He was not satisfied with that. He wants us to be one with Him in the closest way possible in His sacrifice; and so He continues to remain a victim to the end of time, to offer Himself every day through the -hands of His priests. Jesus Christ is still offering Himself in sacrifice to His Heavenly Father, and we can join in that offering. What a privilege is ours! The Mass is not the priest's Mass alone; it is the people's too. When the priest stands at the altar and offers the Holy Sacrifice, he does, not stand there as an individual. He represents Christ; he represents the whole Church; he represents us. In baptism Our Lord raises us to the dignity of being instruments of His Priesthood, though He gives the power unequally. We all offer the Holy Sacrifice; the priest alone consecrates. When the priest prays, he prays not in his own name; no. for himself alone. He prays for the whole Church both living and dead. Nothing can be clearer than this; it is remarkable the number of times "we" and "our" k occur in the Mass. "We beseech Thee, 0 Lord. . . Jesus Christ is still offering Himself in "We offer the chalice of salva- Sacrifice to His Heavenly Father. and tion. we can join in that offering.

Problem of Many Sincere Catholics "May we be received by Thee . . . "Which we believe of Thy glory . . . This "we" includes firstly, Our Lord Himself, then the celebrant, next the servers, and finally the laity, especially those who are actually assisting. In the Liturgy of the Mass. At the foot of the altar the priest and people purify themselves by a public confession. By this very first act they show themselves to be intimately united and the union continues during the entire sacrifice. The priest will recall it to the minds of the people from time to time with the salutation, "DominuN vobiscum." When the priest offers the bread, he offers it "on behalf of all here present that it may profit me and them as a means of salvation unto life everlasting." Again, as he raises the chalice with wine at the Offertory, he says: "We offer unto Thee, 0 Lord, the chalice of salvation, humbly begging of Thy divine mercy that it may arise before Thy divine majesty with a pleasing fragrance for our salvation and that of all mankind." Then at the Orate fratres he turns to the people and says: "Pray, brethren, that my sacrifice and yours may be acceptable to God. the Father Almighty." After the Preface the silence grows snore solemn, but never for an instant is the prayer that of an individual. It is the one speaking in the name of the many ; all is done in union with the people and in their name. Together priest and people pray

that the peace and unity of the Church may be spread over the whole earth. Together they ask God to accept this offering of all His servants. of His entire family. Together they ask that God would command that their prayers be carried up by the hands of His holy angel to His altar on high in the sight of His divine majesty. Together as servants they offer to His most

excellent Majesty " of His gifts and grants,. a holy Host, a pure Host, an immaculate Host, the holy Bread of eternal life, and the chalice of everlasting salvation." These are but selections from some of the prayers which the priest uses at Mass. How clearly they show the mind of the Church! They clearly show the union, the unity there is between Our Lord, the priest and us. It is not the priest alone who offers the sacrifice; it is not even Our Lord alone who offers the sacrifice. We are offerers, too. We have it in our power to unite with Our Lord through the priest co-offerers. 1,Ve are more mere passive spectators at Mas9si.. we do more than "assistat Mas‘Ni we do more than "hear" Mass. 'Nye offer the Mass; we are co-offe rs'; it is our sacrifice. We have the power of offering to God the only thing in all creation which is worthy of Him. By the Mass we ca honour God as He deserves to be nonoured by Us.

It is significant that the only other c ountry to take this action is Soviet Russia. National Socialism is as uncompromising as Communism in its hostility to religion. But the methods used in its programme of extermination are more refitted. Christianity is regarded as an absurd anachronism, whose continued e xistence is an inconvenience which prevents the German people from becoming gpiritually united.

appointed to the executive positions, and the doctrines of the Lutheran Church were rewritten in the light of the revelation vouchsafed to Adolf Hitler. The late General Ludendorff's pagan sect, with its cult of the old gods of the forest, is quite a negligible force, whose prominence in the Press, both lay and Catholic, is out of all due proportion. it has nothing to do with National Socialism. Waldemar Gurian, in "Hitler and the Christians," says that it is only allowed to exist in order that Hitler, when he eventually suppresses it, can be hailed on all sides as a defender of Christianity. * * The position in Austria is obscure. If newspaper reports are not exaggerated, it appears that Hitler does not intend to honour his agreement with Schuschnigg. The Nazi Party is a well-disciplined one, and mass enthusiasm in its ranks does not arise spontaneously. 11411er has made no secret of his intention eventually to absorb Austria into the Reich. He could do this by secretly stirring up a revolt while appearrnt. to honour the agreement. Then, with civil dissension at its height, he could intervene in the interests of peace. Mussolini's legions prevented this at the assassination of Herr Dollfuss, but who knows if Mussolini will oppose the Fuehrer at this juncture? Theoretically, there are no limits to the claims of Nazidom, for this gospel proclaims the German race to be the leaders of the world. Thus any war fought to achieve world power for Germany would be a just one. This leads to the question of the proposed Anglo-German negotiations. Should England recognise and negotiate with a State which is wedded to a barbarous tribalism and a worshIP of power? The answer is "yes." Germany is suffering under some real injustices, and these should be redressed. But it is right that England should arm powerfully before negotiating with Germany. For she would then be able to make concessions without Joss of prestige. Concessions made by a weak country are attributed to fear, and only lead to greater demands (e.g., Austria). On the other hand, if the concessions are born of a desire for justice. the foundations of a lasting peace may be laid. Herr Hitler is desirous of a newspaper truce. This would be a good tl4g, for the Press campaign against Germany (Iescends in most cases to mere per-onal abuse and barefaced lies. The Fuehrer himself could not object to such a reasoned criticism as is contained in the Pope's But when Cardinal Encyclical. Mundelein, of Chicago. abuses Hitler as a "disreputable Austrian house-painter," his contribution to the discussion amounts to little. * * Mr. De Valera is sticking to his guns on the question of the Partition of Ireland.

It had real beauty, was well lighted, and was surprisingly large, considering that the price had been something under £2,000 His thanks were due to the architects (Messrs.

It was the first church building in the new parish of Bedford Park-Bayswater, continued Dr Prendiville, and he could not future that wish better than buildings would be in keeping with its style.

Father Dunne had been sorry to lose this part of his parish, but when the necessity had been pointed out to him he had agreed readily and had given valuable assistance in the establishment of the new parish. His Grace also thanked the Perth Road Board for the construction of a fobtpath from the nearest road.

Questioned regarding the Spanish War, Father Boniface said that the standpoint adopted by the Catholic papers of Australia was completely correct. He thought the war might last another year, because there was no question of a pact or compromise. It would be a light to the finish, because the Spanish people realised that there could be no national life while the Red element remained in the country. P eople in the provinces held by General Franco were quite satisfied with the order and discipline in force, said Father Boniface. The cost of living, a fter 19 months of war, was cheaper than in France , and household requirements were Plentiful, being sold at the prices Which prevailed before the civil w ar began. There was no danger of supplies becoming exhausted through a prolongation of the war. "General Franco's followers have a quiet and fidence in him," complete conhe continued, - "and life proceeds normally in all towns except, of course, those ill _firing lines.

THE RECORD

THE RECORD OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF PERTH. ESTABLISHED 1874. Published Every Thursday at ''The Record Office," 450 Ha; Street, Perth.

PERTH, SATURDAY, MARCH 12, 1938.

The Trade in Bodies ECEN T revelations from Hollywood disclose the existence of an extensive white slave traffic, in which the bodies of white women are betrayed into the hands of libertines and their souls to damnation. Presumably in our own country a similar traffic is carried on. While all this excites the anger of good men, that other trade in human bodies, the defenceless bodies of the dead, is accepted as part and parcel of the routine of our civilisation. The recent publication by the Karraka,tta General Cemetery Trustees of a brochure on Cremation exposes the whole crude business for the racket it is. The public was given to understand that the Karrakatta Crematorium was built in response to public demand. It now appears that the trustees merely followed the dishonest modern business procedure of supplying 4n nnwanted commodity and then creating for it an artificial demand through extensive advertisement. If this is not the case, why the elaborate brochure, with it insistent argument that cremation is preferable to earth burial? The brochure is a thoroughly disgusting document. In its early pages we are assured that "the process is as beautiful as tilt. sentiment which prompts it." That is what Catholics have been trying to get at. What sentiment prompts the incineration of dead bodies? Have the Cemetery Trustees quarrelled with the monumental masons that they should tout so heartily for cremation? They have done a disservice of some magnitude to a body of decent artisans, while they have certainly "offended the most delicate sensibilities" of a large and influential section of thd community. The booklet goes on to say that cremation "in no way interferes with any religious service, custom or ritual." This is demonstrably untrue, seeing that Catholics are by conscience excluded. It means that the trustees have taken upon themselves to build a crematorium, which they regard as a public convenience, but which they know a large section of the public cannot conscientiously use. That is bad enough, without provocatively embarking on a vulgar sale scheme which Catholics must regard as militant paganism In the hope, presumably, of getting away with it, the brochure is veneered with a sickly coating of cheap sentimentality called ".aesthetic considerations." It appears that you can have canned music without extra cost, that your body won't have to be handled (a Renaissance touch!), you will be finally reduced to a fluffy little heap of "from seven to ten pounds of pearly white ashes," you will be filed in a brick wall, or buried in an urn under a tree, and finally your relatives may avail themselves of the cement seats in the columbarium "to sit and meditate!" "With what?" is the obvious question? There follows a comparison of charges in which cremation romps home by some £15 7s 6d. Of course, if you want the luxury of being buried after cremation, under a tree, that will rather tend to even the charges and also to dispet* argument about earth burial occupying space. Cremation also 'heeds two extra doctors' certificates, which the trustees neglect to me.ntion, which will probably greatly increase the prospects of autopsies._ There is no doubt about it, cremation is cheap from every aspect. n .

The Cost of a Baby

NDER this caption, the "Daily News" recently published the bilt paid by an "average suburban couple" on the arrival of a baby, a bill totalling £50. From the heading one anticipated the inevitable conclusion that "I can't afford to have seven children like. mother." The article in itself was unexceptionable, because if people can't afforo to have large families, no religious consideration will press them to do so. Actually the case cited did not ring very genuine on the economic side. We notice that the suburban couple have been paying off a car. The wife had money for cigarettes and drinks, and for "keeping up social appearances." "We thought we would save money . . . but we never did." Of course, no mother, modern in that sense, will have seven children. Largely because she is more fond of self-indulgence than of children, and because she is not ready for sacrifices. But the implications of the article were unpleasant. For it must have left an all too obvious inference on the minds of those who are not concerned with, or informed of, moral principles. so. • • • % Perhaps there is only one adequate method of reply to articles on the "Cost of a baby," and that is articles on the "Cost of an Abortion." But the Catholic Press is constrained by considerations of decency. This much can be said: If people, from genuine economic reasons, really cannot afford large families, there is no obligation to have them. But the means used, and the only licit means, is continence. Actually the economic argument in Australia is not very potent. It should not exist at all. However, while the present regime of social injustice continues, Christians are called to the practice of virtue in almost heroic degree. Still, tot little count is made of the graces of the sacra?'

A Note for Communists HE inauguration in this issue of a page for Italians in their own language will confirm our friends, the Communists in their long cherished belief that the Catholic Press and the Catholic Hierarchy are in full support of Fascism. They will doubtless scan this page with some eagerness to find evidence of a Catholic attempt to rouse the Italians against the spirit of democracy (which is as meat and drink to. the Reds). They will be sadly disappointed, for instr.uctions on the Sunday's Gospel, on the liturgical season, on matters Of faith, discipline or morals, do not readily lend themselves to political propagandist treatment. Of course, there is the illustration of the Italian commander of the "Montecuccoli" with the Archbishop. Perhaps the Communists will accept this as a measure of reparation for the hooligan tactics of themselves and their affiliations towards the visiting battleship. It shows how little they really care for national honour or the courtesy which Australia usually extends to her visitors. INININPOJNINN1,04.0

ed as the date. D'Arcy's orchestra is at the helm. Armadale's unrivalled hall and supper room is the venue for the Shamrock Ball. Clearers have been surreptitiously busy of late putting the school grounds in order. We suspect that the Tea. son for this outburst of energy is the opportunity it gives for a little quiet practice for the big log-chop on Apro 16 at Ye Olde Narrogin Inn, Obituary. With regret we chronicle the death of Mrs. C. Dore, of Cannington, which sad event occurred on Saturday, March 5A Requiem Mass was celebratcd at St. Joseph's Church, Queen's Park. on Monday. Rev. Father Doyle was the celebrant. The funeral to Karrakatta took place immediately afterwards. To her sorrowing family we tender our sincere sympathy. Overheard. A beautiful brick residence nearing completion at East Cannington will soon be the home of the popular Couple, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Taylor. Mr. C. Reen thinks euchre is quite a good game. That reminds me the euchre party next week will be held on Wednesday, March 16, at the usual place. The athletic representatives of the Hibernian Society did not do "as well as could be expected." Is there any truth in the rumour that the game was not fair?

Great Win for Aquinas College The congratulations of all interested must go to the Aquinas College swill'. ming team and coaches for their splendid achievement in regaining the Henn Cup after a lapse of fourteen years. With many of its best swimmers under age, and who will probably re• turn next year, the prospects of retaining the trophy are extremely bright. In the first event to be contested on Saturday last, March 5, the Open 1® Yards, G. McKay caused jubilation among the red and blacks by gaining first position, and Pember cwam above form to record a fourth. In the under 15 event, Hale School took the lead early, and finished first and second, with Aquinas representatives only able to manage fifth and sixth. Trend scored his first victory for the day in the 50 Yards, under 13, and following this Dolin swam a welljudged race to win the Open BreastStroke. with Leunig inches away fourth. Trend again gained maximum points in the 50 Yards, under 12, to place Aquinas College in the lead, which was lost after the first race. Gibson and Pember filled second and fifth positions in the Back Stroke, and a tired Trend could only manage third in the under 14 75 Yards, to be followed by the other representative, Ballyntine, in fourth place. A fter •a poor start the relay team rallied magnificently to win the event in the record time of 3min. 2 4-5sec., the only record of the day. The final event, the Open 440 Yards, proved a victory for Tregonning, of Hale School. with McKay second, the same positions as the under 12 220 Yards. Gibson was fifth and clinched the position for the red and blacks, leaving them victorious by six points, at 106, from Hale (1001, Scotch (5.61), and Guildford (431). The racing was always close; in the latter stages the leaders never being divided by more than eight points and less than one and a half points. The intense excitement produced can be well imagined. Aquinas College has thus been successful in its first inter-school contest. This will, we hope, prove a good omen for an even brighter era of sporting and scholastic success. The points-getters for Aquinas were: Trend, 25; G. McKay, 24: Dolin, Gibson, 10; Relay Race. 8: Pemba 61; Kennedy, 5; Leunig, 4; Ballantyne, 31; Morris, 3; Bourke, 3; P.

"Ossie" Lovelock, after being let off very early in his innings. finished with really good 105, the resoit of batting. His task of rungetting and winning the match was 'made very easy by the atrocious Captaincy of G e.orge Gardiner, East Perth's Skipper , who kept Jack Wilberf orce and Leo McComish on b"gling being while some 80 runs were scored.

The other century came from Read at Fremantle, who, when his team-mate, by bowling grandly to secure 8 for 19, had won the game for his side, went for the bowling in the second innings. He smote it hip and thigh, and compiled one of the fastest centuries ever scored on the Port Oval. The Australians Are Coming. The Australians walked over two games played in the Apple Isle, and now we are to see them playing against our State. The game commences at mid-day on Friday, March 19, and will be continued on Saturday and Monday. Don Bradman's scores in this State are 27, 3. 10. Is our bowling so very strong? Don Bradman has made a century in every State except this. Will our bowlers get him cheaply again? I think not. A Continuation. Last week I told you how some of the English scribes wrote nastily when Australia achieved its first win over England in 1882. Australians in London came back with some "nasty medicine" for the Englanders. It was described in these w ords: "Sammy Jones found a hole in the turf about as large as a fly's eye. Feeling that Alet. Bannerman might fall in it and get lost. he stepped outside his ground while the fieldsmen were lolling about. Dr. Grace picked up the ball, removed the bails and looking meaningly at the umpire. The latter said. "Of course, sir, if you ask me I must give him out." Grace asked, and out the Australian went. (That could snot happen nowadays.— "Recorder.") On the previous day, Hornbv had given Spofforth a similar opportunity. "Don't you realise. Hornby." said the Demon, "that if I liked I could put you out?" "So you could," replied the Lancashire captain, "if you were playing that sort of game„ but are you?" Spofforth wasn't. Another Neville Cardus. Englishman Neville Cardtis is credited with introducing a new vogue into the rather prosaic task of reporting cricket. His diction is flowery to a degree, and unless one has some knowledge of musical terms . he is often left a puzzled reader, but way back in 1882, there was at least one scribe who let his pen flow flowery. This is his sayso of the field of play and surTO tui ,ngs when Australia first del All-England: "In the ceri ce, level and close sh , the light flannels of the criceters floated incessantly, with, ever-conspicuous in the middle of the picture, the d*klv clad and statuesque umpires. Encircling all, and a rich background, rose golden laburnum, .,iaceful ash, delicate birch, sombre fir, immemorial elm, and magnificent chestnuts." "woody" — but Somewhat quite a hefty Cardus-like effort, albeit there is an absence of any musical terms.

Badcock (167), erstwhile of Tasmania, two seasons ago put on 306 for the second wicket, they put on the best partnership for any cricket by Australia), batsmen against an English team in Australia. Frank Bryant For Albany. Frank Bryant will be lost to W.A.C.A. cricket, owing to his decision to go into business in Albany. For many years Frank has been one of the State's outstanding•cricketers, and probably there has‘been none in recent years more apable with the bat. In all compallons one leaves the late Ernie Partcr out—he was a class by himself Ijiir sheer brilliancy.

At 17 years of age he played for the State XI., and against Victoria in 1928. he and Bill McRae, on the W.A.C.A. Ground, put on 238 for the second wicket, which is easily a record for W.A. He compiled 112 not out and Bill McRae 119. On tour in 1934 he and Frank Alexander put on 114 for the first wicket against Victoria, and that is the only occasion it has been done for W.A. v.

The Victorian Football Association has decided on a drastic change for the forthcoming season. It will be allowable to use the two-handed throw—as in Rugby—provided the hands do not go higher than the shoulders. The Association has also resorted to the old out-of-bounds rule—it will be a throw-in fron, the boundary, unless the umpire deems that the ball has wilfully been forced out. •#################################

And there is not a priest, nun or brother sincerely trying to live their life for God who will not grow enthusiastic in recounting the graces and benefits He has bestowed upon them and theirs. The little sister whose joy it is to become a Carmelite novice this week has the double joy of knowing that both her pious parents consider it their privilege and greatest blessing to give to the Divine Bridegroom the child of theirs on whom His choice has fallen, and we may hope that in her holier little Corner on earth she will remember in her prayers and sacrifices the cause of the Bushies and the needs of the "Come rites."

PERSONAL TIT-BIT. Miss Jinny O'Brien, of Sydney, who has been an inmate of Lewisham Hospital for some weeks, has decided not to die this time, and is now on the high road to the sitting up position in bed, her one regret being that she is not yet able to take active part in the sesqui cententary celebrations that are at present giving a carnival spirit to the harbour city. "Luke the Physician,' • who is still a patient in St. John of God Hospital, Subiaco, celebrated his eighty-fourth birthday last Tuesday. and astonished his doctors, friends and his holy nurses by going into a strict retreat from 7 a.m. till 2 p.m. The only one who was not surprised was his Guardian Angel. as he knew his charge needed this birthday introspection, but it came as a set-back to those who had planned to keep up the occasion by beribboning his sheets, bedspread and pillowslips, to say nothing of the breakfast tray. On being accused of not having the right spirit of his birthday, he confidentially told A.B. that he had a large size bottle of it in the wardrobe; and that in going into seven hours' retreat he wished to test himself with regard to an inclination he felt to join the Trappists. However, we understand the Trappists are not keen on taking postulants who have passed their eightieth birthday, so it is more than likely that "Luke the Physician" will continue to live the rest of his life in the world if not in bed. By the Westralia arrived a little gentleman who will in future act as a body guard to "The Dear Old Lady" when she is on her way to the bank with the Busbies' cash. With straw coloured hair, pudding cheeks and eyes of nigger brown. this Young gentleman favours the cow-boy type of trousers, and he gains the formidable look by carrying a gold revolver in a most conspicuous position. A native of the Dandenong Ranges. but with none of the Ned Kelly inclinations about him, this latest addition to A.B.'s staff re. joices in the romantic name of `,Boronia Bill." A keen admirer of Sandy McDougall, it is probable he will act as groomsman to our kilted laddie if the latter decides to wed Miss Mary Snoggins later on. 4"4"4"04.#4,04.1.4.04, 0•Ps"."1.0.41,11.1.0.04.~#4.441.4.4.041

Their disappointment was lively on learning that He was no longer to be .-een in Jerusalem ,and that no one knew where He was. In the porches, where the numerous ablutions and sacrifices necessitated long hours g.-.f standrc.m ds of ing about for these visitors, the only topic of discussion was the young Prophet. "What do you think?" they asked among themselves; "is it really true that He will not come?" The Councillors could overhear them speaking such words. could note the agitation of the first corners, and so must have congratulated themselves for having avoided the disturbances with which the Festival was threatened, by thus getting rid of Jesus. Sadducees Resolve to Kill Lazarus. Their satisfaction was destined to be of short duration; for just six days before the Pasch news r eached their ears that the Saviour was approaching. The Sabbath prevented the people from hurrying out immediately from the town, but as soon as sunset signalled the end of the hallowed r epose, many went out as far as B ethany. "They went thither, not only for the sake of Jesus, but for Lazarus also," bent upon seeing this man once dead but now called back from the tomb. They gazed at him, were thrilled at the thought, and, finally, overborne by the powet of Jesus words, great numbe; s re-entered Jerusalem that same night, believing in the Saviour. Now among them were certain princes of the people, a fact which was exceedingly irritating to the excited members of the Sanhedrin. The Pontiffs, especially Sadducees for the .most part, with, no belief in the Resurrecti,m the of dead, were indignant that these nobles should be '_he cause of such a commotion. To their Way of thinking, there was only one means the thing, of putting an end to and that was to kill the r esuscitated man; this they r esolved to do. But other cares w eighed upon their minds, for new the rumour came (as already that onnoised about in Bethany) the would enter following day Jesn9 the town.

Loose them and bring them to me. And if any one say to you, 'What are you doing?' say, 'The Lord has need of them,' and straightway he will let them go." Everything took place as Jesus had foretold them; in a byway of the town they found a she-ass tied with her foal outside a gateway; and they unfastened them.

" What are you doing?" inquired some of the bystanders; whereupon they made abswer just as the Lord had commanded them, and they let them go. The Apostles were impatiently awaiting their return; since now, for the first time, they beheld the Master making ready something which might be likened to a Triumph, by preparing to mount the very animal of old devoted to the service of the Royal House of Israel. the ass of Eastern lands, of solemn gait and noble carriage. Jewish traditions had proclaimed that the Messiah would choose no other equipage on the day of His manifestation. "hYnd so," thought they, "at last the hour has come when the Master, after so long persisting in concealing Himself, win appear and establish His kingdom." The delight and enthusiasm of the Galileans was so great that they tore off their mantles and with them decked the ass as richly as they might: then making Jesus sit thereon, they thronged about Him with shouts of great "They knew not," adds joy. Saint John, "the Mystery contained in that which they were doing, but after Jesus was .glorified, then they remembered that all these things had been written of Him. and that they had fulfilled them." For it was long ago recorded, in the words of Zachary:

Strong exception has been taken to the objectionable tone of an article on Matt Talbot, which appeared in the New York "Her. aid-Tribune" (Paris edition) from the United Press Vatican City correspondent.

The offensive article appeared under the heading: "Irish Tippler to be Sainted as 'Protector of Drunkards.'" It stated that Talbot spent his life as a watchman of huge liquor warehouses, and that he learned to "hit the bottle" and was ",almost completely illiterate." Interviews. In interviews secured by

an "Irish Press" reporter with his only living sister, Mrs. Susan Fylan, 501 North Circular-road, Dublin, and others who knew the saintly working man, the real Matt Talbot is revealed., A leading Dublin Canonist stated that the article gave the impression that Talbot had been for many years a drunkafd. whereas the fact was that alcoholism was but an episode in hiA life. Matt Talbot, he said, drank only in the early part of his life between the ages of about 15 and 26, when he took the pledge an(' abstained from alcohol ever afterwards till he died at the age of 69. Nor was it true that this Servant of God was illiterate. Although he left school very early, he had a very high appreciation of spirituality, even in its .most difficult aspects. Although he was not educated in the accepted sense. Matt Talbot had a deep understanding of most difficult theological and philosophical works in which he made notes in his own simple language. He had a perfect understanding of the most profound writings. He was always in sympathy with the movement for improving the lot of the working class to which he belonged. Evidence of his life had been given before the Diocesan Court which sat some years ago. during the Informative Process, which is the first step in the procedure for Beatification. The results of that inquiry were sent to the Holy See, with whom the next step rests. Mrs. Fylan stated that her brother was very fond of drink till he was about the age of 25 or 26, when he took the pledge and never looked at liquor again. Although he left school, perhaps at the age of 12, he read a great deal in his later life. Everything he read was of a religious character. Matt was not a watchman. He was always a,builders' labourer, most of his life being spent in the employment of Messrs. T. and C. Martin, North Wall. These views were confirmed by two brothers who knew Matt Talbot since they were children —Mr. William Larkin, of the Tenants' Association, and Mr. Frank Larkin, who had been for years President of the Apostleship of Prayer, attached to St. Francis Xavier's Church, Upper Gardiner-strreet, of which Matt Talbot was all his life a member. They were aware ,pliat Matt Talbot had once been fond of drink, but knew, Also, from their father and otheyg who had been acottainted witii him, that he had given it up 'completely in the early 'eighties.

"Life of Penance." Sir Joseph Glynn, who has writ. ten a life of Matt Talbot which has been translated into several languages, states that he went to school to the Christian Brothers in North Richmond-street, and left at an early age to go to work, his first job being at Burke's, in the Letts. A fter leaving Burke's he worked for some years in Pemberton's, and finally, at the age of 37, he went to Messrs. 1'. and C. Martin, where he remained until health broke down in 1923,

"Osservatore's" Comment, The Vatican City organ, "Osservatore Romano," published a front page article from its Dublin correspondent deploring the United Press message on Matt Talbot, which was published in the New York "Herald-Tribune," The Dublin correspondent corn ments on the painful impression which this publication produced on the minds of the faithful in Ireland, and states: "The scandalous calumny is all the more despicable as purporting to come from the Vatican City, revealing a lack of responsibility in those professing to deal with religious emanating matters, especially from Rome." The "Osservatore" adds its editorial comment: "The observations‘of our Irish correspondent are so obvious that we can only associate ourselves with the indignation of those good Catholics." ....4"1 04,4""I+41.#41.M.IPAP~#41411sIVIi#4.####-

Every day of his life for many years Matt Talbot rose at 2 VII He had slept for about fourteen years on a plank bed with a wooden pillow. The plank was covered with a sheet to conceal it, and over that was a half blanket, which was all his covering except when the weather was very cold. In that case he permitted his sister to add a tew sacks, but no more bed clothes. From 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. he prar ed on his knees on the bed. At 4 a.m. he rose ,and having dress.: ed, resumed his devotions until it was time to go to Mass He died whilue on his way t° Mass in St. Saviour's church, Dominick-street, and was taken to Jervis-street Hospital, where 3 Sister of Mercy found a cart chain tied twice round his bocb.; held together with twine, a" hung with religious medals.

Spain --England In England the spate of Spanish propaganda continues. The latest publication supporting the Barcelona authorities is called " The War in Spain," a weekly summary, and is being sent out with a covering letter which says that it has one aim—to provide r eliable information on the subject of great interest and bewildering perplexity. But judging by number one, its aim is not really to help people to understand. It is violently anti-Catholic, and repeats the old charsaying, for instance, of the Church: "It dominated education, the key to the minds of the people: even in 1930, about fortyfive per cent of the people could not read or write." with no hint how far the people who were educated were being educated by the Church, primarily by the reliAs far as their gious Orders. r esources allowed, the Orders did a great work for education, but then they are next attacked for having any resources at all. About the land problem, which was very real ,and led to the formation of special agrarian parties, with whom the Catholics in the Cortes were the most closely allied, this publication prints figures, saying, "Here are the sinister statistics of that problent : 1 per Cent. of the population o wned 51.5per cent of the total land. 14 per cent. of the population owned 35.2 per cent. of the total land. 20 per cent. of the population owned 11.1 per cent. of the total land. 25 per cent, of the population o wned 2.2 per cent. of the total land. 40 per cent, of the population owned nil! _ Wealth in England.

It is estimated that the church will cost some £17,000 to build. Its architectural style will reproduce, as nearly as possible, that of the 12th. and 13th. centuries. Cardinal Hinsley has approved the scheme, and Bishop Myers has offered to be president of the local committee. it is expected that both Catholics and Protestants will contribute to the fund for the church.

A PRAYER FOR PRIESTS. Keep them, I pray Thee, dearest Lord. Keep them for they are Thine, Thy priests, whose lives burn outbefore Thy consecrated Shrine. Keep them, Thou knowest, dearest Lord, The world, the flesh, are strong, And Satan spreads a thousand snares To lead them in wrong. Keep them, for they are in the world, Though from the world apart, When earthly pleasures tempt, allure— Shelter them in Thy Heart. Keep them and comfort . them in hours of loneliness and pain— When all their life of sacrifice For souls seems but in vain. Keep them, and oh. remember, Lord, They -have no one but Thee, Yet they have only human he9f, With human frailty. Keep them as spotles ,as the Host, That daily they caress, Their every thought and word and deed Amen. Deign, dearest Lord, to bless.

Lenten Devotions MENTAL PRAYER. Mother Church recommends during_- Lent pious meditation on . Though the Christ's Passion. Passion is not read till Holy Week, the Gospels all during Lent intimately touch upon it. Thus in that for Quinquagesima Sunday Our Saviour foretells So, too, His coming sufferings. there is a reference to them on the Monday and Saturday in the First week, and on the Monday, Wednesday and Friday in the second, etc. It is a sad commentary on the materialism of our day that the habit of mental prayer or meditation has gotten out of the life of laity. Time was when it %vas a most common practice with them. One has but to read the lives of the layfolk of the preReformation period to note how much they were given to meditation. To-day this pious exercise is thought to be the privilege of those in the cloister. In a more Catholic age almost all devout men and women meditated. The world needs to get back to meditation, as the Holy Father has warned us in issuing his fatuous Encyclical encouraging retreats for the laity. Meditating the Passion. All spiritual- writers are agreed that' no subject is more prolific of good results for meditation than the Sacred Passion. Their love for Christ is begotten, and a hearts' detestation for sin, and contempt for the things of sense, and a noble desire to meet the generosity of the God-Man with personal generosity in His divine service. In the Passion we nourish ourselves and our souls with the food and drink of Christ's wounds, whereby we are inebriated. The remembrance of the story of Calvary is well calculated to show men the enormity of mortal sin, of which they think so little, and their own personal ingratitude to God. If the pious Christian will but go over some o f the details of the Passion as outlined in Scripture, he will find his heart inflamed with holy thoughts and feelings, and with pious desires and strong purposes. No man can .picture the outrages heaped on Christ Holy Thursday night and Good Friday and not give love for love: love of God expels sin. The Venerable Louis De Ponte in his classical treatise on mental prayer gives as tke main end and fruit of meditt on on the Passion "to unit nd conform ourselves to Clpitst." This famot ascetical writer says that \ ' should first of all endeayouk to excite in our souls affeetiot,Sr of compassion aner solrow and sadness, thus becoming spiritually crucified with Christ and conforming ourselves to His interior sentimentE • Suffering With Christ. Not satisfied, however, with this spirityal drinking of the Saviour' -Passion, we ciught mgo endeavour as the fruit of the con ternplation of Our Lord's sufferings to drink t!,e clip of tl.a' Passion corporally sr( onformine ourselves to C t in the self same sufferin mid find strength. and couraggi o impose mortifications on uselves so that we

may "bear always in our bodv the mortification of Jesus" (2 Cor. iv: 10) and the "marks" of Jesus (.Gal. vi: 17) which are those marks and pains which afflict our flesh as they afflicted Thus we may say in our His. meditation "with Christ I ant nailed to the cross" (Gal. ii: 19 as well by imitation as by compassion. This will facilitate our fasting and other exterior peni. tential exercises. Especially will it urge us to go beyond the strict regulations Mother Church lass down for her children and mak(, us use more sparingly not merely food ,but all sorts of lawful pleasures. In the spirit of the time we will refrain from public amusements, from shows, dances, etc. So eager is Mother Church that the season be sacredly reserved for mourning and sorrow that she prohibits (luring Lent the solemnisation of marriage. There was a time when, to emphasise her .grief, she did not even celebrate the festivals of the That custom is changSaints. ed, but its spirit should be observed. Even yet the Church ilan merely keeps the Annunciation and the feast of St. Joseph during Lent, and these were introduced int. her calen(tar only as late a..-• 1807 ; previwas kept ously the former in December. Our Roman rite merely excludes octaves during Lent. A LITURGICAL CATECHISM Second Sunday After Lent, Q. What is to be noted regarding the Mass of the Second Sunday after Lent? A. In the night before the Second Sunday in Lent the Catechumens were brought to the Church of St. Peter for the Station fixed for Saturday of Lenten Quarter Tense, which lasted on to the Sunday and served as the Sunday Mass. When the Ouarter Tense Mass—the Mass of Ordination3 — was fixed for Saturday morning, the Sunday which was vacant had a Station Mass provided for it in another church, and la the Sunday Mass the Gospel of the Saturday was retained (cf the Third Sunday of Advent). Q. What instructions does this Mass convey? A . The Gospel, which is of brings Transfiguration, the aS that home to us the truth, enter so Christ had to suffer and into His glory, so it is by penance and suffering that we enter into Heaven. The spirit of impurity and the spirit of dishonesty (Epistle) are amongst the great obstacles t° our attainment of that goal. Sel.e denial will drive out sin and win us grace.

Aquinas College Swimming Carnival

On the evening of February 23, Aquinas College gave its first swimming carnival to the public.. The night was warm, and Crawley Baths were nearly filled to capacity. The bright lights threw their reflection on the placid waters of the Swan, thus providing a beautiful setting for the carnival.

Enthusiasm for swimming runs high with all the boys-every afternoon 99 per cent, of the boys go into the water for a swim. This spirit tends to snake the standard of swimming high. The Canning River is very suitable for swimming, and we are very fortunate to have a strip of beach of about 50 yards to use. This beach is main:y used by the small boys. For the bigger boys there will be a swimming baths on the end of the jetty. Although this has not been opened as yet, we feel confident that it will be one of the nicest private swimming baths in Australia A t the swimming carnival six records were broken-the 440 open and the 110 yards open by Gordon McKay, the College champion; the 55 yards back stroke. by W. Gibson; and the 75 yards free-style, under 14, 55 yards under 13, and 55 yards under 12, by Bob Trend. There are two old records still standing-that of J. Cooke, in 1925, in the 220 yards under 16, and the 55 yards open breaststroke, by P. Kennedy, in 1936. in the tune of 41 3-5seconds. Cooke's time was 2.48 2-5. The Lantern Race was the most spectacular race of the evening. The eight competitors holding lighted lanterns, presented a beautiful picture in the darkness. The decision was given to Nea! Kennedy after an argument among the spectators as to whether his lantern went out or not before he reached the finish. In the inter-house competition Green ( 41) won from Red (18).

THE NEXT CATHOLIC PRESS CONGRESS WILL BE IN VIENNA. The Second International Congress of the Catholic Press, held in Rome in 1936, resolved to accept an invitation from Vienna to hold their session there in 1938. The Congress will take place from May 19 to 22, just before the Eucharistic Congress in Budapest. It will be occupied with an extensive and important agenda. In Vienna extensive preparaLions are already in full swing to give the visitors a cordial reception and to make their stay in the capital -a pleasant and memorable one. The rooms of the Austrian Press Chamber, situated in the centre of the city, are being placed at their disposal. Cardinal Innitzer and Federal Chancellor, Dr. Shuschnigg have announced their intention of addressing the Congress. Special shows of their most valuable exhibits will be organised by the National Library, which has one of the oldest and richest collec. tions of books in Europe. A RCHBISHOP IS HOST OF 90 IN DIOCESE WITH SAME NAME. A rchbishop Glennon, of St. Louis, U.S.A., has entertained 90 members of his diocese who have the same name. They met on the Feast of the Holy Name. The 90 "Glennons," representing practically every parish in the Archdiocese, ranged from babies in arms to men of 29. Medals, prayerbooks and rosaries were given to the guests. The Archbishop announced that another such gathering would be held on the first Sunday in 1939. Only the namesakes attended the celebration. Refreshments were served and the Archbishop spoke briefly and informally on the value of a -good name." C ATHOLIC TEACHERS OF WORLD TO MEET DURING EUCHARISTIC CONGRESS.
