One wonders what will be the fate of the Church under the fierce assaults which it is sure to suffer. It is tragic indeed. We see a common murderer raised to the status of a hero, for the remains of the executed criminal who murdered Dollfuss have been dug up and reinterred in a hero's memorial. They will probably make a song about him. like the street-fighting bravo. Horst \Vessel, who is the subject of the Nazi anthem.

Nazi marriage and racial laws have been imposed on the Austrians. They will now know the delights of sterilisation and children born out of wedlock w ill be declared legitimate. The Nazis will take delight in cor:-upting the morals of the youth in Austria as in Germany. A well-informed American observer, writing in the "Month" last year, stated that it is the deliberate policy of National Socialism to encourage immorality amongst boys and girls; huge c amping parties are arranged, apparently with this end in view. The writer states it as a fact that an appalling number of young girls become mothers at the age of 13 or. 14.

R UMBLEms4 Prom;se of the Eucharist

A.D.G., East Maitland: What meaning did the Jews take from the words of Christ, "He and that eateth my flesh drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life?" . Those words occur in -the bth. chapter of St. John's Gospel, w here Our Lord promises that He will leave His flesh and blood in the Sacrament of the Eucharist. The *Jews took His words literally just as do Catholics; but many of them, unlike Catholics, r efused to believe in Christ. "This saying is hard," they said, "who can hear it?" So we are told that many who had followed Christ until then, left Him. Had they suspected that He did not mean them just as they stood, the Jews would never have been scandalised by His words. But there was no room for any symbolical interpretation; and as jesti obviously meant what He said, the Jews decided to abandon Him rather than believe in His doctrine on the Eucharist.

to believe in the Catholic doctrine of the Eucharist behave as the Jews who wer present when Jesus made the promise, but who had not faith enough in Him to believe that He could do what He said He ,.%'-otild dO.

Book in l 2. These Prayer Books substituted a Protestant Communion Service for the Sacrifice of the Mass; a Protestant doctrinal standard in the shape of the Articles of Religion. Thus the movements to set tic a National and Protestant Church of England came to fruition in the years 1349 to 1552, as Mr. Hammond declares. Catholic Claims.

more wholesale scale in the years 1649 to 1552. Personally I am convinced that ,on Anglican principles, the Anglican authorities are logically justified. Catholicising tendencies are out of place in the Anglican Church. But that is precisely because the Anglican Church is not a Catholic Church, in the normal sense of that term. "That method of approach is unhistorical." . That cannot be correct. Take a simple historical test. Right through the ages the central act o f Catholic worship has been the Sacrifice of the Mass. Without the Sacrifice of the Mass the Catholic religion ceases to be. Now when the reform in England came to fruition in 1549 the Sacrifice of the Mass was abolished. Mr. Hammond himself denies that the Sacrifice of the Mass has any part in Anglican worship. He does not regard his ordination as giving him any right or power to offer that Sacrifice. His is another religion, therefore, and cannot be the Catholic religion. Any approach to this question which ignores the Sacrifice of the Mass must be ranked as unhistorical.

"The nature of the reform," said Mr. Hammond, "was not the abandonment of Catholicity. We still assert our belief in the Holy Catholic Church." That is to retain a name whilst repudiating the reality. The authority of the Catholic Church A practical way of expresstogether with many Catholic ing goodwill to your Cathodoctrines and Catholic forms of lic paper is to be guided by worship were rejected.

details of the assassination of Mr. Joseph Lo Pa Hong, China's millionaire philanthropist and President of Catholic Action, have now come to hand.

A few days before the murder, two Chinese orange sellers set up a stand in the street nearby the house in which Mr. Lo was staying with a friend in the Rue Dubail, in Shanghai's French quarter. From them Mr. Lo bought some fruit. These same men are believed to have been his slayers. Search has been made for them. They were probably in disguise, it is stated.

To say that there was no such thing as objective truth was supreme madblasphemy and supreme ness. The answer to the intellectual gangsters was that no man could make laws for himself,' he must accept the laws under which he was born. Another reason why nations died—and our nation is in a parlous state—was because we had become absolutely callous to life as instanced by the number of people killed on the roads each w eek. Dr. Sutherland said that if the present birth rate and death rate remained where it was now —and the birth rate would decrease—by 1954 the number of children under 15 would be halved; the number of people between 50. and 45 reduced one quarter; and the number of women aged 65 and over would be doubled. In 1954 there would be 5,000.000 fewer people in England. That would be the case if the birth and death rates remains(' as at present, but they were going to get worse.

DR. HALLIDAY SUTHERLAND, Author of "The Arches of the Years," "A Time to Keep," 'Laws of Life," speaks plainly on the causes of England's declining population.

A declinivg population was incompatible with an expanding market. And in regard to foreign policy what was the use of armaments if there were no men to work them? Discussing the causes of the. declining population, Dr. Sutherland said one reason was that Government departments had weakened. The Ministry of Health was indictable for that. Then there was the surrender of the medical profession, and of the Church of England at the The deLambeth Conference. velopment of hire-purchhse, another cause, Dr. Sutherland described as anti-social and bad.

The greatest heresy of our day was the heresy called progress—i.e., no matter what happens it is progress. Everything that happened was not necessarily progress. Dr. Sutherland said that in regard to the professional and other classes the education of children should be made more r easonable. It is a wonderful thing, concluded Dr. Sutherland, how in the long run, even in our own generation. it has-been demon. s trated thatethe laws Qf God and the teaching of the Catholic Church are not only right objectively and for eternity, but essential for the well-being of the nation.

LTHOUGH the Vatican City has had every amenity of the modern town enclosed within its small domain, until now it has had no cineina. Soon a cinema is to be ready for the citizens of the State. It will be built in the northern part of the grounds, between the telephone exchange and the garages, and will hold 750 seats—enough to seat at one time at least threequarters of the population of the city—an organ to replace the orchestra, and the most modern sound wiring system yet invented Father Gemelli, who is virtually looking after the plans for the new cinema, spoke of the Pope's interest in the screen, which was first manifested in his Encyclical, "Vigilante Cura," and has been in many shown subsequently other pronouncements.

FATHER AUGUSTINE GEMELLI, 0.F.M., the famous priest-scientist, is supervising the erection of the Vatican City cinema. Father Gemelli, who, as president of the Pontifical Academy of Science, delivered the inaugural address when the Holy Father opened the Academy's new sessions recently, is one of the best known priests in Italy, and, in fact, in Before the war he the world. was a Marxist doctor and a materialist. On his conversion, he joined the Franciscans, and was subsequently ordained priest. He is the outstanding Catholic figure in Italy in the realm of science. His work is colossal, and although primarily on questions of natural scientific problems, it bears witness to his widespread general culture. He has, too, remarkable gifts of organisation. His principal work at present is the University of the Sacred Heart at Milan, of which he is Rector. It is to him that the University owes its existence, and to his labour that it holds its importance. Father Gemelli is 60 years old, and is a close personal friend of the Pope. 11111111111113111111111111C]1111111111110111111111111I1111111111111011(111111111C211111

nowadays the cinema takes the same place as was taken by the novel in the second part of the last century. "Those who, forty or fifty years ago, delighted in reading novels were not so attracted by literature as by the desire to be carried • away from every-day society and events. The more interesting the novel the more popular it became. "The same happens to-day in regard to the film. The workman, the typist, the clerk, find on the screen the life of dreams which satisfies them. The stronger, the more emotional, the more gripping the plot, the greater is its success and its influence on the masses. "This is the great difficulty, and a great responsibility confronts the producer of to-day as it confronted the novelist of half a century ago. His job is most painstaking. Producer's Responsibility.

These words, spoken by one who by daily proximity with the Pope must be able to interpret his feelings so much more accurately than it is possible here with only the official statements issued by the press to work on, are intensely valuable and intensely Because the film proshrewd. ducer can get at the "inside" life, he can remake all life for his audience.

It is practical Christianity, for it is a putting into teaching of the practice of Leo XIII., Pope Vicar, Christ's who reminded the world that a workman's wages should be sufficient to enable him comfortably to support himself, his \vile, and his children. A writer in .one of our evenon commenting ing papers, Messrs.

That doctrine is, of course, the logical outcome or the materialistic philosophy of this industrial age. The machine, which is everywhere ousting men, has become the standard b) which the workman's efficiency is measured. It five men be replaced by one machine, then each man is worth only a fifth of the c ost of the machine's upkeep. The creative ingenuity of modern science and engineering seems to be almost limitless. The craftsman, the navvy, the artisan, t he signalman, the accountant, the telephone operator, and now, in America, the bank cashier, have been mechanically parodied. Human relationships lose something of their humanity in a community in which machines are as c ommon as men. Vitality must lose something of glow its in its contact with the robot'; w hen the the handshake iswarmth of replaced by the gripping of a lever.

tion of work and wages in this country." It wpuld be a nice point to decide what an "unsentimental principle" is. It might be argued that since principles fie deep down in the moral sense there can be nothing sentimental about them. On the other hand, since, as the schoolmen teach. there is nothing in the mind AixiXIXOCAIN •

IMPROVING WORKERS' CONDITIONS. English Firm's Scheme. Hundreds of families are affected by a scheme of child allowances, to supplement wages, announced recently by an English firm who have 12,000 people on their pay-roll. The company are Pilkington Brothers, one of the biggest glass-making concerns in the Empire. The scheme is based on families with a minimum of three children of school age. Five shillings weekly will be paid for each additional child of school age. An extra £1 a week will go into some homes. The firm has warehouses all over the world. A typical family to benefit under the plan is that of forty-threeyear-old Michael Honey. Michael and his wife have five children. That means an extra ten shillings a week. Commenting on the scheme, one of the board members of the company stated: "It will cost us a four -figure sum each year. but it will improve the conditions of our workpeople. and it is for the The welfare of their children. scheme applies to office staff as well as the factory workers, and an employee must be earning a high salary before he is barred it.—" West Australian." from March 3. 1938. :4--;f1f1

which has not reached it through the senses, some might contend that the more sentimental the principle, the nearer it is likely to be to justice, for the more human a thing is, the less inhuman it can be. An age which prefers the machine that cannot think or feel to the man who lives by thinking and feeling is bound itself to become unfeeling. Its principles have lost truth, because they are no longer rock bound, but are set up on the shifting sands of expediency. Pilate, when he asked: "What is truth ?" was, perhaps, not so hypocritical as he seemed; not nearly so hypocritical as when he washed his hands Big of an unpleasant affair. Business to-day does not ask: It has not "What is truth ?" even the wish to he honest with itself: and it can wash its hands of responsibility to its workmen's families by pleading that its prin, ciples, like its factories, have become dehumani ed. Mechanisation, while it does not allow of bonuses for children, does, quite logically, seem to be providing bonuses for sharehold-

ers. Lately one of the Big B anks has paid a bonus of 2 per cent, to certain shareholders, in addition to a substantial dividend. Perhaps there will be bigger bonuses when the robot bank cashier makes his appearance over here. But however many kinds of machine the magnate may make; however great his ingenuity in giving robots the likeness of man; there is one thing he cannot do— create life. Obedience to the primal command "Increase and multiply" is not enouraged by the majority of modern employers. The sluieks of happy laughter as the children play up and down the streets, or the tierce glee with which boys just released from their lessons kick the football from one side of the road to the other, have lost their appeal; the semblance of life is preferred to life itself; machines are made as lifelike as human contrivance can make them. And if in consequence the livelihood of the worker becomes so precarious that he hesitates to bring new life into the world, that is so much less competition with capitalism's own creations. Courageous Example. Messrs. Pilkington Bros. are amongst those who respect in each of their workmen "his dignity and worth as a man," of which Pope Leo XIII. speaks in "The Workers' Charter." Some may object that their scheme if generally adopted would lead to a favOuring of men without families ; that the family man would not he suffered lest profits should suffer. But such a cleavage between differently -graded employees is no Apprentices may new thing. work until they reach manhood, and then, Nvhert entitled to men's

wages, find themselves out of work. And all over the country there are offices and factories staffed for the most part with girls, because men with families are too expensive to keep. No injustice can be righted unless there is the goodwill to right it. And the courageou4_ example of Messrs. Pilkington Bros. must weigh not only as a counterpoise in the sales of justice, but also as an equilibrium in the minds of other men who are wavering between the claims of conscience and the pull of bank balance. Others may think that the scheme does not go far enough; that the first three children should share in the special provision; or even that the worker's wages should be high enough to allow him to anticipate additions to his family. Other employers may, if they are so minded, devise schemes which they consider more generous. If they do, Messrs. Pilkington Bros.' own generosity will have been their inspiration. So may this agg of mechanism capitalism and which has created so much, but which cannot, try as it may, usurp the creative omnipotence of God, be regenerated.

Mussolini did, not carry out a supression of Jewry in Italy after the manner of Hitler in Germany They were not as numerous, for one thing, and those who were there either left the country or r emained, content with the new regime. Amongst his advisers now are a few Jews. Mussolini's heavy hand fell on Freemasonry, and for an explanation, he writes in his "Autobiography": " . . . I proclaimed the impossibility for Fascisti to be members at the aine time of masonry' we must not forget that this shady institution, with its secret character, has always had in Italy the typical character of briber and blackmailer.

Masonry opposed Mussolini for many reasons, not the least of which was his religious policy, which restored the Crucifix to the schools and r eligious teaching to the curriculum. He triumphed in Italy, not because, as it is constantly and absurdly represented, he was a reactionary, but because, by appealing to the noblest instincts in human nature, he could rally around the standard of a common cause, all the elements of a hitherto disorganised and disunited nation. Let me also emphasize that Mussolini, in his great fight against the forces of evil, found that a purely secular ideal, was, by itself, insufficient.

The leader of the new Italy stands for the preservation of European civilisation. Ranged against him is Bolshevism and its natural ally, Liberalism.

HE Moscow plan for Spain and its demand for control over Left organisations is furtiter revealed in a letter by the Arch-Communist, Leon Trotsky, in the "New York Times," December 7: To the Editor of the "New York Times." In your issue of November 28 you printed an article by Nathaniel Pfeffer, "Is China Beaten or Has the War Only Begun?" The author, well acquainted with the Far East, gives an excellent analysis of the general situation. His conclusion is; Japan can gain a long series of particular victories, but cannot win the war. China has on her side space, time, human masses, a nationally liberating character of the war. The author is completely correct when he says that against mass guerilla warfare on the part of China, Japan will prove in the end powerless and will suffer, we can add, not only a financial and economic, but a social catastrophe.

The role of Sue was splendidly carried through by Miss Kay Kinane, while Mr. George Dean as Pierce was delightfully buoyant and forthright. The climax of the play is reached when Marion changes her mind about the conventual life and after an amusing attempt to cajole a woe-begone suitor of long standing (Harold O'Mahony—played with eminent success by Mr. \V. Hoey) into a proposal of marriage, finally accepts Pierce Hegarty amidst tears and confusion.

Austin Kelly, S.J., preached the occasional panegyric. In the evening a concert and play were presented in His Majesty's Theatre, at which a record attendance was present. The theatre was packed to capacity. The organising committee comprised: Rev. Dr. J. T. McMahon, Rev. Father Doddy, Rev. Father O'Connor, Rev. Father Winston, Rev. Father A. Lynch, Mr. J. Mitchell, Mr. J. Tully, and Mr. K. Spruhan. Messrs. J. Minihan and A. Jackson were in charge of the house management. while Mr. M. Eustace was in charge of the stage. The committee desires to thank all those who assisted in the arrangements of the celebrations in any capacity. The concert opened with a most invigoratinglv performed fantasia, with which the girls of the orchestra of the Victoria Square Convent recalled memories of Ireland's most beautiful melodies.

Record Attendance studying the violin at the Melbourne Conseryatorium, where she obtained the Diploma of Alusic. She has a great warmth of tone, and a highly .developed sense of musical feeling, which, combined with a good technique, places her in the front rank of Perth's violinists. Appropriately her main offerings were fantasias of Irish melodies, and in response to insistent applause she gave a Bolero by Bohm, a spirited performance of which once again gained for her tremendous applause. She was accompanied by her sister, Miss Kathleen Kenneally. The pupils of the Highgate Primary School gave the "Kerry Dance," in which their singing and dancing gave the great pleasure we have learned to expect from Miss Peggy Esler's training. With the.aid of large coloured balls, the girls of St. Joseph's School, Victoria Square, gave a tine display oi a kind of rhythmic drill almost akin to the ballet. The concert part of the programme was brought to an end by- two of Moore's melodies, Has Sorrow Thy Young Days Faded?" and "Lye's Young Dream," sung by the St. Brigid's singing students' choir. It is always a pleasure to hear and see this well nown body of young ladies, and they sang in the beautiful style to which they have accustomed During an intermission to prepare thv, stage for the play, the Victoria Square orchestra once more played an Irish selection, this time from the orchestral pit, from where they also accompanied the Ball Rhythm. The piano accompaniments were played by Mrs. H. Lynch, Misses K. K enneally, K. Dunne, L. Brennan and Alice Heyen.

The second portion of the programme was the presentation of Lennox Robinson's comedy, "The Far-Off Hills," which was very capably produced by Miss Lily P. Kavanagh. The performance was all the more creditable when one considers that the original play in three acts had to be condensed to two and that the play had only been in rehearsal a short time. The plot concerns the Clancy household, whose normal life, since the death of the mother. has been rather stifled by the straight-laced, over solicitude of Marion, the eldest daughter—a part admirably sustained by Miss Pat McManus. Marion repressive measures kindle the sparks of rebellion in the father (cpnvincingly portrayed by Mr. Frank O'Grady), in whom age has not quenched the joie de vivre. In this philosophy he is aided and abetted by two young bloods- of the town—Oliver O'Shaughnassy

HE forces arrayed against Christian marriage were many and varied; but all had their source in the shameless immorality of the modern world, said Rev. Father Cahill, C.SS.R., in the course of his third Lenten lecture at the Cathedral. It refuses to accept or retain anything whatever that could restrain its insatiable self-indulgence. Hence the prophets of the modern world had marked down Christian marriage for destruction. In its place they advocated the untrammelled promiscuous lusting of free-love, divorce and birth-control. Father Cahill then asked a pertinent question: "Who is the greater criminal the one who robs or murders another or the degenerate sex-obsessed man who employs his fame and skill as an author, or his

In an age so profoundly materialistic ; in a world governed so largely by self-love; in a land where the passion for power, position and wealth was so predominant, the unworldly and unselfish love that hid itself in such a spiritual retreat as Clontarf— to minister without fee or reward to the wants and needs of the orphan—could not fail to stir the chord of generous enthusiasm which, in spite of its frailties and faults, lay everywhere at the heart of humanity That those children might he way work their enabled to through life and support themselves, it was, of course, absolutely necessary to provide them with the means of doing so. And those means were none other than trades and handicrafts suit-

ed to their capacity. There was no more desirable asset to themselves and to the world at large. Clontarf, in the past, had been noted for its proficiency in the crafts. With this new equipment, the work of the Brothers should be rendered more effective and the technical education of the boys considerably improved. His Grace congratulated the Brothers and the little boys who had helped so efficiently in the construction of those splendid buildings. In congratulating them, he thanked them and those who had helped in the organisation of that function and who were always ready and willing to lend a helping and generous hand to the orphans. Amongst them were included many who did not worship at the Catholic Shrine. He was glad to see such a splendid gathering of friends and well-wishers of Clontarf and felt confident that all would help as generously as their means would allow to assist this noble work of the Christian Brothers. Dr. E. M. Stang. Dr. Stang said that she had taken an interest in Clontarf for many years and she considered it a wonderful place for children The land was extensive, the river was nearby and offered facilities for healthy sport, and the orchard, dairy, vegetable gardens and poultry runs all had their places in giving the children all that was necessary for them to become the healthiest children in the State. Bishop Raible. A most valuable part of the work of the orphanage, said Dr. Raible, was in training the children thoroughly for their crafts. There was evident in Australia a certain tendency to think that as long as a job was finished it did not matter how it was done. There were too many who considered themselves qualified mechanics because they had once handled a screwdriver or who thought they knew all about join-

lanage ery because they had once smelt a glue factory. The land must have people who took their trade seriously and that was what the boys of Clontarf were being trained to do. A boy who knew his job thoroughly and whose character had been soundly trained was of as much value to the State as many university professors. Mr. J. F. Lynch. The classrooms of Clontarf were equal to any technical classrooms in the State, said Mr. J. F. Lynch, and the work of the boys was first class. He was in a position to know, and he could say that it compared more than favourably with the work done in the technical schools in this or He appealed any other State. to employers to help to complete the work, of the orphanage by taking the boys into their employment or by arranging apprenticeships for them. Mr. J. J. Kenneally. It gave himself and his colleague, Mr. Faull, great pleasure to attend the opening of a building to help the orphans, said Mr. Kenneally.

Cartagena is so obviously next door to the "fiery gates" that I felt a strong pull to go to confession . without delay! But the heat did not deter many of the passengers.

I wanted to see his remains which rest under the high altar in the Jesuit church, the little hovel in which he sTept those many years, and his small private chapel, all still intact and preserved to his memory. And I saw it all. I remained for some time after the flock of tourists had given its interior the usual tourist glance and left for the sunbaked streets. There were only two or three Catholics in the party, but I was 'one of that two or three to say a prayer—and try for a few moments to commun.e in spirit with the Saint.

And he now contradicted my assertion of _ the morning that as a human being he was a "marvel." He said: "Basically I am nothing but glands, developed from a simple chemical cell.

But migrants of this kind, with a pea, sant tradition, are only to be found in over -populated agrica tural countries, and these are foreign.

Our Sectarian Press

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

Apparently the secular Press is never too pre-occupied with "scoops" to relax its hymn of hate against the Catholic Church One tries to find explanations for these rash and rabid attacks, and failing, turns to finding excuses—an equally fruitless search. Perhaps it arises at times when there is a dearth of "copy," one piously hopes. Yet in the Press excitement over Hitler's coup d' etat in Austria, there was someone sufficiently calm to note that "the church bells rang (by order of Cardinal-Bishop Innitzer)." A few days later it was reported that "official quarters (oh blessed anonymity) allege that important stores of arms and stocks of anti-Hitler pamphlets have been discovered in Romaa Catholic churches and monasteries in the neighbourhood of Linz It is declared (oh thriced-blessed discretion) that arms were found in the vault of the Cathedral." Everybody, remembering the comic "morality" trials in Germany, knows these reports for the lecherous lying they are, but the Press continues churning it out without question or criticism. * * If you tackle a modern editor about the tactics of his pubh cation you meet with the blandest imperturbability. He is totally irresponsible he is paid to trust the cables of his news service even when contradictory or palpably false. Let us instance the case of Kurl Schuschnigg. It was reported locally on the 16th. inst. that the Austrian Chancellor (at whom the Press had always sneered on account of his unrepented Catholicism), had married a divorced woman whose husband was still living. Further "a priest called at the palace . . . and performed the ceremony." This inherent absurdity occupied 7i inches of the evening press. The morning press of the 21st. inst. stated that "the reported marriage was improbable" in exactly half an inch! Yet a final and conspicuous denial of what is known by a fifth of the State's population to be completely untrue, will never be published. Is it not time that the Legion of Decency in Australia relaxed irs vigilance on the films in favour of organising a boycott on a press which is shameless and utterly unchecked in its licence and its lies? • • • The chief difficulty which faces Catholics is not that the Press tells lies. For lies can be refuted. But the Press tells ties, so many in number, so frequently and so untiringly repeated, that it is impossible to keep up with it. But worse than all, those unnamed powers which own and control the Press, have their wills set towards a deliberate policy of slander. Consider the What human being could hope to Spanish War for a moment. cope with the torrent of bestial, stupid and incessant propaganda which has been directed against Spain and the Catholic cause? Take the alleged Nationalist bombing of open towns and the case No child of this generation in this of Guernica in particular. country will ever be able to forget in the years to come the barrage about the Guernica horrors. Yet "The Times" of December 14, 1937, admitted a main article by Wing Commander James, M.P., in which the destruction of Guernica by the Reds, upon evacuation, is admitted and, in fact, excused, as an act of war. Did we ever hear a whisper of this in our local Press? Or, take the capture of the Bishop of Teruel and his alleged broadcasts. Were we ever told about the imposture of the Bishops voice over the radio? Truly the Catholics of this country are like Chesterton's "silent people." We have suffered all things and we have not spoken—yet! n

Migration A cable received here on Wednesday last indicates that a Catholic organisation is at work in England, in view of the Federal Cabinet's recent decision to resume immediately migratiori from Britain. In this matter it can only be said that we have been betrayed by our political leaders who have failed to legislate for a decent living assisted by a child endowment scheme, and so make possible the natural increase of our best immigrant— the Australian baby. So we must accept immigration as an inevitable development. The prospects of a British migration are, however, by no means cheerful. The recent report of the Registrar General shows that the population of England and Wales is almost stationary. From now on it will steadily decline. Hence British statesmen will take every precaution against losing useful citizens, and especially in view of the grave tension in Europe and of a probable expansion in the British rearmament plans will they be reluctant to permit workers to leave the agricultural areas. Our own needs in the matter are well defined. We definitely do not want industrial workers. Our cities are already too crowded for decent social life and are perfectly ridiculous from the defence angle. Our unemployment figures are no prove, subject for boasting, and will even require a little dexterous manipulation at election time. However, vast tracts are idle, and those under production are hound up with "export complex." It is obviously the first duty of Australian governments to develop

Father Boniface has recently returned after a four months' visit to his native land, where he r epresented the Lord Abbot of New Norcia at the Provincial Chapter of the Benedictine Order in Galicia. Not only did the lecturer relate his own personal experiences in war-torn Spain, but he made a lucid analysis of the otimplex f orces which had brought about the present position there. Disclaiming any qualifications as a public speaker, Father Boniface succeeded in holding the attention of an uncomfortably crowded audience by his simple statement of fact. His address was r eceived enthusiastically, and justly acknowledged as -entertaining, instructive and inspiring." A full report will be published in our next issue. Father Boniface was questioned by members on several Points of general interest, and matters prominent in local controversies on Spain.

Authority

ar

(Continued from Page 15.)

Rights of the Church. Human imstitutions, and especially the State, can only exist by virtue of the principle of authority of which the Church is the loftiest exponent and strongest support. "Obedience is the bond of rule," and the "non-serviatn," of the first Rebel has been repeated by his human followers throughwarfare out all time, in their whether against the City of God or the civil power. If obedience to civil laws is not rendered as a by secured duty, it must be actually force; the method adopted by many authoritarian Governments which rule by the eleforcible subordination of mentary civic and personal liberties to what they regard as the good of the State. In so doing, by a rightful nemesis,' they have succumbed to the political methods of the people they most detest.

Saturday,

Amici carissimi. Dinanzi al tumulto del mondo moderno l'uomo pensieroso non puo far a meno di domandarsi -perche tutto questo imbroglio?' perche queste guerre?- -perche non risplende in questo mondo la luce della pace?" Queste domande sorgono spontaneamente dal cuore umano ii quale cerca naturalmente la felicita, anzi la somma felicita. II pacifista ci da la sua risposta che rigettiamo senz'altro — perche non si puo avere la vera pace senza la giustizia. La pace le quali sono e, direi, una sintesi di giustizia e di carita fraterna rifiessioni della carita e la giustizia infinite di Dio. Pero aggiungiamo che queste virtl.1 senza ii motivo soprannaturale dell'amore di Dio non possono assolutamente avere esito felice perche quella debolezza umana che rovina l'anima dell'individuo puO rovinare l'anima della nazione — puo minacciare la pace del mondo intiero. Povero mondo! mondo senza Dio: mondo senza vero motivo perche immerso nel fango delle passioni umane! Noi, 0 Cristiani! figli della chiesa Cattolica e Romana possiamo dobbiamo contribuire alla pace del mondo colla santificazione dell'anima propria. Senza Iddio non si puo far nulla, ii pii1 presto r iconosciamo questa verita tanto meglio per noi, tanto meglio per il mondo. Ii Cattolico ii quale nega Cristo colla scostumatezza di vita, il quale Lo nega rifiutando recisamente di pratticare la sua religione e traditore effettivo, diciamolo chiaramente, perche la fede cattolica e quella fede viva la quale trova espressione naturale in opere buone. Siate sempre entusiasti per la vostra fede 0 Cristiani. perche Iddio e Iddio solo puo darci la vera felicita — una participazione nella Sua beatitudine divina. Augurandovi questa felicita.

Non era la prima volta che Gesii affrontava i Fariesi sulla questione dell'osservanza del Sabato:—la Religione ebraica era es.senzialmente Sabatica — il Sabato fu ii giorno di riposo. dopo i sei giorni della creazione, — ossia era fondata sul riconoscimento di Dio Creatore; Gesii affermando la sua padronanza sul Sabato, c provandola con operare miracoli, affermava insieme la sua Divinita e la sua Messianita, ossia la sua

Beaconsfield

Our first dance of the season was held on Wednesday, March 16, and all things considered, it was very successful, and augurs well for the coming year. The orchestra has been augmented by a drum, so now with excellent music, a perfect floor and a good supper, patrons are assured of an :injoyable time. The next fixture will be on Wednesday, March 30. The euchre parties are in full swing, too, but there is Mom for improvement in that department. Surely Beaconsfied can boast of more than 30 players. Where are all the old patrons of the past? The ladies give a good supper and good prizes, so they are leaving nothing undone to make the parties a success. They deserve more support. It is disheartening for them. They 10 not mind working when their efforts meet with success, but the stoutest heart will quail in the face of continual failure. The euchre parties are held every Monday night in the School-room.

It was one of the in this cricket for occasions big satisfied. well were all and tate, S On Friday, Western Australia batted and did well to reach 192 after being at one stage 6 for 76. lt was then that we sa 0,- a very bright partnership between Pies sen and Zimbulis, who. ad(lel 7.)6 Eyres for the seventh wicket. .41 compiled and lustily hit out five hit He minutes. seventeen in fours and two "sixers," while a third landed just inside the boundary. His was easily the brightest batting of the innings, but the effort of Zimbulis making 38 is also deserving of ‘cry high praise. Mervyn Bessen, the country player, justified his selection by hitting 1p 39 in good fashion. One straight drive to the fence off McCormick was perfect in de tail. It should encourage selectors to give other country players of note their chance. Australia made 391, and that is the lowest score that Bradman and Co. have been dismissed for, as in the first match against Tasmania the tally \'as 477 and in the second 520. Don Bradman showed his wares to good effect by scoring his first century in this State. He made 102 in fairly quiet fashion, though his runs were scored in the good time of 122 minutes. It is his 68th. century in first-class cricket. and barring accident's Don should be the first Australian to make a c entury of centuries. The best batting came from Stan McCabe, whose 122 was compiled faultlessly, and his strokes were executed with erfortless ease. He batted for 140 minutes, and hit fifteen 4's and two "sixers." Don Bradman recently passed a nice compliment to Stan. He said: "Stan is the best batsman in the team. I runs, but Stan may make more executes his shots SO perfectly, and does everything so correctly that, without doubt. he is the Pest batsman of the team:, • The 391 runs were scored in 267 minutes.

Claremont Subiaco, 9 for 302 (dec.), v. Nortfi—Perth, 0 for 24. West Perth, 5 for 311. v. N.E Fremantle: East Perth, 223, v. Fremantle There will be just one more match in the qualifying round ,so the games set down are very important. « . • Darlot Cup Matches. Matches for Wednesday-, March 30: Scotch College v. Aquinas College, at Scotch College. Guildford Grammar School v. Hale Schocl. at Guildfordi EARLY DAYS. 1850-51: Tasmania beat Victoria at Launceston in the first inter-colonial game on record. 1855-6: First Victoria v. Nev South Wales game, and wcti by the latter. 1857-88: First "hat trick" in Australia—G. Gilbert did it against Victoria for New South W ales. 1856-7: An incident. Playing for New South Wales against Victoria, Rees was caught at the wickets by G. Marshall off J. W. Hamersley. and was given "not out" by the Victorian umpire. Rees was asked to state "as a gentleman," whether he had touched the ball. He said "yes," whereupon the umpire reversed his decision and Rees retired without a murmur! Them were • the days. 1868-9: New South Wares was dismissed for 37 by Victoria at Sydney. When a Victorian batsman was dismissed*, the applause was so loud that it caused a horse to bolt. Six persons were injur cd and taken to hospital. 1885-6: A. H . Jarvis caught two and stumped four for Australian XI. v. Victoria. I. W Trumble, for Australia bowled 19 consecutive overs. 1890-1: Alex. Bannerman, in 51 hours, 'carried his bat through the innings for N.S.W. v. Victoria for 45 runs. One of his partners was H. Moses, who batted 1 ihours for 9 runs; At one period Bannerman did not score for 70 minutes. . Enthusiasts. One of the most enthusiastic cricket communities in the world must surely be that of Lord Howe Island, in the Pacific. The total population is not much over one hundred. Yet two elevens are often to be found in the field. The ground is small, and a curious, if not unique, procedure has been adopted as as to overcome The any resulting difficulties. wicket is of concrete, but only one end of it has been covered with matting, and at the' end of each over the batsmen and the fieldsmen change over. This arrangement has been found successful and it is claimed that it is one which saves both expense and time. It certainly would do away with the captain's problem of who should bowl from the bottom end, into the wind, with the -wind. etc.. etc.

Boxing Atilio Sabatino has defeated Fred Henneberry on points. This fighter has geatly impressed He put up a great showing against Australia's title-holder, Ron Richards, to whom he gave away weight. In his whole career he has lost only two contests and it xvill be interesting to see against whom they send him next. The fight game is booming in the East, and that there is plenty of money in it may be gauged from the fact that Henneberry received 11,000 for getting into the ring against "Sab." Claude Nichol', ‘'ho answered to the name of "Tiny" when a resident of this State, has improved out of all knowledge since going East. He put up a very good fight against Ambrose Palmer, and now it has been announced that he has received offers from American as yell as English promoters. Ambrose Palmer will met Leo Kelly on March 29 (next Tuesday) and for the supporting bout Nicholl has -been matched with the American Simpson. Jim Corbett. Jim Corbett was of an extremely sensitive nature, and he was really goaded into his title fight against Charley Mitchell of England. Jim could not put up with the personal abuse that Charles showered on him. The feud be. n•an at a social, when Mitchell re:, fused to shake hands with Corbett. "You're a big American coward, and I can beat you to pulp in this room," shouted Mitchell. Corbett took it, but he was very aggrieved about it. "After I get through with Sullivan, I'll settle with Mitchell for that," he said to tfis manager. In the ring Mitchell's taunts and abuse made-Corbett lose his temper, and through this Gentleman Jim nedrly lost the championship on a foul, when he floored the Englishman and then landed a glancing blow on the head as the challenger was taking the count on one knee.

MY CORNERITES,— The first item on our 1938 Programme pow ends with the completion or the "Popular Personality Shamrock.- Its glory goes to the Captain of the Australian Test Team, and its cash--22 3s 9d—towards the Objective. Very gratefully I thank those among you who contributed to the satisfactory results of this particular effort, and, if as some hope, Bradman did not succeed in gaining a thousand runs, I think each of the cricketers were supported most generously, and if they gain as many Centuries in the coming Test in England the ashes should be theirs. A correspondent in this week's columns (trying to entice me to send her nine cards, ahem! ) alludes to the working of what she calls my "mathematical brain." That small mound must have been working overtime in the early hours of last Sabbath, for, I found my. self thrilled from head to toes by receiving a cheque made payable to The Bushies to the value of £100, and the signature on the right-hand corner was —"Stan McCabe." The thrill must have been too severe for I woke to find the clock ticking on towards 225 a.m., but so realistic was the dream that I almost switched on the light to see if the cheque had fallen down between the wall and the bed. The dream took the form of a serial story, because as soon as I had gone ,back to the land where dreams belong. back came the cheque, and with it Mr. McCabe himself, to tell me it wasn't really he who was donating the £100 to the fund, but a dear old bachelor _who was too shy to want publicity, and whose name was Jerry Eyeglass. So! Anyone among you knowing the whereabouts of an nice bachelor answering to this name will do the Bushies a great service by sending me his address at once. to Seriously, though. if I proceed the work my mathematial brain in right direction, it would be extremely bad for it, for, here we are almost at the end of March, which means a third of the year gone, so if we have not yet three gathered in one hundred for months, how will we gather in one hundred per month for nine months, which will be necessary if the Thousand is to be ours by the end of 1938? Fortunately for itself my brain never runs in the right and practical &lirecIt always inclines me to look tion. confidently beyond the clouds, and say to the One who reigns above the heavens and earth, - You can bring it in in half a day if You want to." and so He can. *Yet because I do believe that God helps those who help themselves, it behoves me to urge you not to sit tight, comfortable as such a position may be. Therefore, my Cornerites, if you have not yet qualified for merribership in our Cardboard Brigade, the Bicycle Adventure, or the Grand Fiver Campaign, make a good resolution to sign your name to something in the Bushies' favour even if your name isn't Jerry Eyeglass.—Yours hopefully, AUNT BESSY. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS. A.B. returns thanks to the "Gene:. ous Benefactors" on the list of "The Five Little Murphys," whose donations added 15s to the funds this week; to "The Slacker,- for 1/9 in favour of Bradman; also to "Faithful Heart." for -5s received in favour of Bradman; to Brian Born, for 2s. for McCabe; tc "Sympathiser," for ls. _for O'Reilly; and to Mrs. Byrne and the Five Little Murphys, for their supplies of Old 'Stamps; also to John Price, Gretchen, and Mrs. Moynahan, for the return of 'butts and cash on Bicycle, and to Marianella for helping on Sandy's favourite.

126 Charles-street, Perth. Dear Aunt Bessy,—Please rind enclosed four cards and 10s. It gives me great pleasure to do what I can for the Great Work. I can't do much in the way of practical Catholic Action, but perhaps this is one way of doing something. The bicycle tickets are going slowly, but please send me four more cards, and I will ask another book of tickets as soon as I succeed in filling the present book. May the Sacred Heart and Our Blessed Mother bless the Cause and your 198 efforts for it. A CLIENT OF OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL SUCCOUR. Dear Client of Our Lady,—As long as you keep helping. the Bushies' Scheme as you are doing, and have so constantly done in past years, you need have no doubts about your inability to help on Catholic Action, as you are doing your big part in it, and in one of the most necessary branches—that of the education of the little children in the outback in the Truths of our Holy Raith. The cards and cash were welcome, and the tickets will get going soon, so don't be anxious. AUNT BESSY.

I have just returned from a holiday at Dunsbrough, where Twenty-four of us journeyed forth by means of a motor truck and two cars. We camped at Pinjarra going and returning, ands though much can be said in favour of camping under the stars, believe me, one has little or no sleep, and we were up and about at 3.30 a.m. mainly because the lighting system was rather effective, there being a bright shiny moon overhead. The three noted Australians have compiled a useful score, but I am terribly disappointed that our Don hasn't reached a thousand, so I am piling on some more runs. Hoping you will reach your Objective ,and with love from Muinmie, Margaret, and—Your loving nephew, DICK THACKRAY. Dear Dick,—Did you write your own letter? The writing seemed altogether different from your previous samples, and I am wondering. for if you found it easy to change it I would like to know the art, since I have been trying to change mine into a legible hand for won't the last sixty years, and it Thank you for nlacchange for me. ing the 5s. worth of runs to Don's favour, and though he did not get the Thousand he has helped towards seeing that we will get it, thanks to all his generous supporters, and those of the Am glad you enjoyed other heroes. your romantic trip, and I hope there will be many such in store for you.

F hi SUMMARY OF THE REGULATIONS FOR FAST AND ABSTINENCE.

(1) On Fast Days, those bound to fast are allowed one full meal, at, or after mid-day. In addition, they are allowed .two light meals, one of about eight ounces, at which butter, eggs, cheese, or fish may be taken in small quantity; the other of two ounces or three, at which a little butter may be taken. (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 of .fast and abstinence, provided they be used merely as a condiment or 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 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 dav, 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. THE PASCHAL PRECEPT.

Then said the Lor:! : "Henceforth may never fruit be found upon thee!" • And from that moment the figtree began to wither away. Surely a strange anathema this, if • we consider it as merely affecting a tree, incapable of meriting praise or blame; but a terrible judgment for the hypocrites, for whom this fig-tree was the figure, most of all terrible for the Jewish people who, while boasting of their laws and - their ceremonies, used these outward signs only to hide the hollow insincerity of their righteousnesa,. This death-blow is the only one dealt by the Saviour's merciful hands; indeed it was only wrung from his heart during the last days of His stay among them in the hope of striking their stubborn souls with a holy fear of God; and even here the tender nicrcies of His heart warded off the blow, moving Him still tc ,,pare mankind, and in their stead

A LITURGICAL CATECHISM Laetare Sunday. Q.What is the special character of the Fourth Sunday in Lent? A.. The Fourth Sunday in Lent strikes a note of joy. The altar is decorated, the organ sounds, the dalmatic and tunic are worn (cf., the Third Sunday of Advent). It was the Sunday before the great scrutiny that used to be held on the Wednesday of On the fourth week in Lent. that Wednesday took place trio ceremony Qf the aperitio annum ( the .opening of the ears: cf., the Ephpheta of the Baptismal service') and of the Traditio symbolorum (the teachinc, of the Creed and the Our Father and the explanation of the Gospels.) These ceremonies assured me Catechumens of their birth to a new life, of 4heir resurrection on Easter morning. The joyous anticipation of it all gladdened the liturgy of the Fourth 'Sunday which is called Laetare Sunday. It heralds for us by way of encouragement the joys of Easter before we enter upon the deeper Passiontide. We gloom of should rejoice that we belong to the Jerusalem of the New Covenant, to our Holy Mother the Church, who has given birth to us, likewise, in the Sacrament of Baptism. Q.

Alms and Lent In the economy Christian almsgiving is any material service rendered the poor and needy out of love for Christ, whether one feed the hungry or clothe the naked or succour the sick or manifest his charity otherwise. Almsgiving is not the mere giving to those in want, and this should be insisted on. It is aid bestowed because the needy poor are children of our heavenly Father and our brethren in Jesus Christ—for God's sake. Our Lord has told us quite explicitly that what is done for the least of His brethren is done unto Him. It is the supernatural fact that we are all incorporated into the Body of which He is the mystical Head that must he at the basis of almsgiving to give it its essential dignity and merit. The Fathers of the Church is following Scripture, which rich in passages directly or indirectly emphasising the necessity of contributing towards the welfare of the needy, frequently and unequivocally inculcate the The necessity of almsgiving. story of the Apostolic Church shows that our first fathers in the Faith fully sensed their obligation; they held their goods in common; they took up collections in their assemblies; they assigned deacons and deaconesses to be the Church's almoners for More than once in the poor. later history Pop-es and -Bishops and Christian Sovereigns sold their very treasures - to alleviate St. Lawrence is resuffering. called as the classic example, though he has had thousands of imitators throughout the centuries

To adore God, to thank Him and to implore of Him His gifts is therefore a threefold duty incumbent upon man, for the mu pie reason that man is altogether dependent upon God. But in consequence of his having fallen away from God and become corrupt by sin, there devolves upon him, now laden with iniquity and deserving of punishment, still another obligation—namely, that of appeasing an offended and irritated God, by appropriate propitiation or satisfaction.

SCOT STUDENTS WILL HEAR THEMSELVES MAKE MISTAKES.

COUNT JOHN McCORMACK, famous Irish tenor, has been suggested as a possible candidate for the position of President of Eire, under the new Constitution.

A novel method of teaching foreign languages is to be tried out at Our Lady's High School, Motherwell. it is a recording apparatus whereby gramophone records are made of the pupils' voices and then played back to them. Simultaneously, the teacher explains the faults in speech and pronunciation. This will be the first time in Scotland such a method has been tried in schools The experiment is being made at the proposal oi Mr. Thomas Lynch, M.A., head master, who along with several members of his staff, demonstrated the idea at a recent meeting of the Education Sub-Committee of the Lanarkshire county council.

No matter how strongly we disapprove of the German actions, we can do nothing without greatly endangering our own existence. * * Poland took advantage of the state of "nerves" and the precedent set by Germany to impose her will upon Lithuania in an arbitrary fashion. It seems almost a pity that the three tiny Baltic States were given an existence separate from Poland, for the added strength would have given Poland the status of a great Power, with free access to the Baltic, problem and the "corridorovhich must eventually come to a "show-down- with Germany) would not in that case have ar.15en. .\loreover, a great nation which honours its Catholic traditions and remains at peace with its neighbours would be a strong influence towards sanity in European relations.
