by accepting the Faith he taught and observing its requirements with wholehearted fidelity. • * Origin of Presbyterianism. Dr. Boyd Scott added that the members of his Church needed to be reminded of the fact that the Church went back in an unbroken line to the Supper Room where the spirit of the Risen Lord came upon those that were gathered at Pentecost. lAre need to be reminded of things we have once known, but have forgotten. Dr. Boyd Scott is introducing a new idea which the average Presbyterian has never suspected, and which quite ignores history. Catholicism can trace itself back in an unbroken line to the Last Supper. Presbyterianism certainly cannot do so. It originated in the 16th. century. Thus Dr. G. W. Butterworth, an Anglican, in a book recently published and en titled "Churches, Sects, and Religious Parties," says: "Historically we must go back to John Calvin at Geneva in the years 1540 onwards for the origin of Presbyterianism." But I see a hopeful sign in the very desire to claim unbroken succession from Christ and the Apostles, however impo'ssible it may be for Presbyterians to sustain the claim for their own church. For at least it is an implicit recognition that the Christian Church ought to be able to trace itself back through the centuries to Christ. The man who grasps that principle, and then discovers that his own particular Church cannot comply with the requirement. is much more likely to find the truth and return to the unit): of Catholicism than one who does not advert to the true nature of the problem. Such hopes are intensified by Dr. Boyd Scott's admiration of One who timidly St. Patrick. seeks to be in communion with the Saints can quite well end by joining that "Communion of Saints" known as the Catholic Church. to which every recognised Saint has belonged. Thoughts along these lines should be encouraged as tending to break down the walls of separation, one in and to lead to unity Church in accordance._ with Christ's express will that there should be one flock and one shepherd.

Apostolate for All
has become the great Missionary of the twentieth century, as Xavier was in the seventeenth. By choosing her as the Patroness of the Missions, the Church teaches us the great lesson that without going far afield we. can all be real apostles and heralds of Christ. It is our prayers and little sacrifices joined to a flaming love of God that will ultimately start a conflagration for Christ in the hearts o f the world. The Apostolate For All. This apostolate is open to us all. Our Holy Father the Pope tells us that "There are various ways of exercising apostleship There is an apostolate of prayer, an apostolate of action, an apostolate of word, and, let us add, an apostolate of almsgiving, for money is needed to carry on All God's work among men. men, however, cannot exercise all these kinds of apostolate and are therefore not bound to do so. But there is one way ()Pen to all, the apostolate of prayer, because all can pray. Prayer is the language of love and who is there who can not love? This apostolate is easy, for all can pray and Moreover, the all, should pray. apostolate of prayer is especially efficacious, for Our Lord has promised that He will give all things in answer to prayer, and no other form of apostolate can be of any advantage to men unless its fruitfulness be derived from the apostolate of prayer." We see then that we should be zealously faithful in praying frequently for the success of our missionaries. By so doing we shall be co-operating in the salvation of souls. Our faithfulness will bring down needed graces on those living in spiritual blindness and in sin. Our prayers will our likewise obtain graces for missionaries. Only those who mission have laboured in the fields can understand the lonelidiscouragement of ness and working among peoples of other races and other longues. Loneliness and discouragement come

Catholic Church and the Working Man ( Continued from Page 9.)
"We complain of the excesses we have of Communism, but brought it upon ourselves. Every C atholic who neglects to do his part to remove social injustice is helping to make Communists. Nearly fifty years ago Pope Leo XIII. bitterly complained of the apathy and indifference with which his Encyclical was receivTo-day our Holy Father ed. says that: 'The manner of acting in certain Catholic circles has done much to shake the faith of the working classes in the religion of Jesus Christ.' "It cannot be denied that much of the misrepresentation of the Church's attitude to the social question is due to the inexcusable ignorance and apathy as well as the ,selfishness and shrinking cowardice of many of her own children. "Why should we Catholics by our silence or inactivity draw upon ourselves and our beloved Church the hate and opposition which the present social injustice engenders in the hearts of many honest and sincere men? "Why should we allow the Church to be accused of doctrines which She repudiates and abhors? the considers "When one abuses and injustice so prevalent to-day, one cannot but feel that we are keeping red revolution down simply by sitting as comfortably as we can on top of it, with never a thought for the day when we shall be blown sky high together with the pagan world from which in this matter we differ so little. "If a day of reckoning ever comes it will be useless to say that we knew the principles that The could have saved society. vital question will be what did the did Not what we do? Church do; but what did each one amongst us personally do to live those principles. "It is then the duty of every Catholic to keep dinning into the ears of a deaf world the official Catholic social principles; consistently, and and openly whether it be employer or worker, to shape his own conduct according to those principles. "No man may shirk the issue. 'He that is not with Me is against Me." No Christian may be a Communist. Neither may a man claim to be Christian who shirks his clear duty of doing all in his power to understand thoroughly, to propagate and to ITstore to the modern world the social principles of Christianity. "Give those principles a chance and there will not be a corner of the earth where the revolutionary will get a hearing. 'Then will the world realise that the Catholic Church is indeed the best friend bf the working man." (Next Sunday: "Christ and Sinner.")

Catholic Church and the Working Man Bulwark Against Capitalism and Communism Application of Christian Principles Only Solution to Social Problem The Catholic Church is the workingman," best friend of the Cahill, Father Rev. eclared d C.SS.R., in his fourth Lenten lecture, "Christ and the Worl:?r." delivered in St. Mary's Cathedral on Sunday night last.
Capitalism as an economic system, based on the natural right to possess property, was perfectly just and lawful. But Capitalism in its modern dress was the gross abuse of that system. It \\ unjust and most unchristian and had been condemned by several Popes with a wealth of denunciation that would make the most rabid Communist turn green with envy. Our present Holy Father spoke of modern Capitalism as "an economic system that is hard, cruel and relentless in a ghastly measure." Capitalists of this brand were designated by the Pope. as "selfish, greedy, ravenous, unjust."

As a result, even in the midst of plenty, poor men, the producers and consumers of the goods, were forced to live on the verge of But that caused no starvation. concern to modern Capitalism. in general, modern Capitalism was condemned because it- was opposed to Christian justice and charity. "Every man for himself," "The weakest to the wall," were proverbs expressive of the system, whereas Christ said: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." It was robbery on a huge scale under the protection of the law. It .enabled the few selfish and grasping men to become every year richer and richer, while the workers who make their money for them were forced to eke out a miserable existence in poverty and eternal fear of the future. No wonder that it was called by Pbpe Pius "an economic system that is hard, cruel and relentless in a ghastly measure!" Its evils had stampeded the common sense of men and inflicted upon the world the disaster of Communism. Cahill "And now," Father summed up, "unless Christian principles are to prevail, the unfortunate millions of victimised, down-trodden working men are forced to choose between the unChristian despotism of modern Communismn and the equally unChristian despotism of modern Capitalism."
"If that statement were made a soap-box down on the Esrom f planade to a crowd of Australian men, it would be received with surprise and incredulity," he continued. And yet it was a simple statement of fact. in the modern world the workingman had been forced into circumstances of grinding poverty, said Father Cahill, solely because the world had repudiated the Almost fifty years _ ago Pope Christian principles of justice and Leo X III. spoke of the cruel incharity. And it was the Cathojustice of the system by which lic Church, almost alone, that "a small number of very rich men those restoration of for the trove were able to lay upon the teemprinciples. ing masses of _labouring poor a Why then should the state- y oke little better than that of ment be received with surprise slavery itself."

Tt had been enough. Capitalism was definite Thus financiers would close oil c aused by the repudiation of w ells to keep up the price of Christ. Therefore Christ must be
restored. It was not by chance that Christ had been born in poor circumstances. His foster father, a labouring man, His Mother a child of the people, He chose the vocation of a manual worker. Not mere chance that He chose His Apostles from the working class, that He selected illustrations of His teaching from the working world around Him, and spoke with respect and esteem for the work ingm an. If we read of Christ in His Gospel we would learn the true principles that could solve the social problem. For 1,900 years the Catholic Church had been enunciating those principles. During the long centuries when She held sway over the hearts of men in Europe, there was comparative social peace. NVork was held in esteem, wages were just and constant, labourers were content, strikes were needless, excessive toil was restricted and the homes of the workers were happy and peaceful. But then the Reformation came and let loose the cruelty and greed that is in human nature. It was followed by the pagan Liberalism of the 18th. century, and modern, heartless industrialism came to complete the disruption of society.. Now, as ever, the only hope was in a return to Christ and Christian principles. For fifty years the Popes have been appealing for social justice; they have enunciated clearly the basic principles and had even shown how those principles are to be applied. And for years all that information has been available in Catholic papers These and C.T.S. publications. demand for every worker a just family wage, sufficient to support himself and family in becoming comfort, and so ample as to remove all anxiety for the future. They demand that there be a more equitable distribution of the wealth of the world. That as far as possible -wage-earner" be replaced by "profit-sharer." so that. as Pope Pius XI. says, "in some way the workers be made sharers in the ownership. the management and profits of industry." They appeal for the abolition of the present unnatural splitting of society into employers and workers, and propose the grouping together of both employers and workers according to occupations, and professions somewhat after the manner of the old mediaeval guilds. That the State should uphold the common interests of each group, and smash once and for all the vile competition for money power of the grasping monopolists of Capitalism. "Everyone should have some property; no one should have too much: all must use their property so that the interests of others are not injured," Christian said Father Cahill. justice and Christian charity mn,t ,-overn all. Conclusion. "In no other way does the modern world show itself more definitely unchristian than in its refusal to remedy social injustice," was the conclusion arriv ed at by the preacher. "But in this matter, when I speak of the modern world, I must regretfully include many of our Catholic people." he said.

This year's celebration of Holy Week will be notable for the introduction of a new body of singers, known as the Society of Saint Cecilia.

The Responses, .which are sung between the Lamentations and Lessons (originally to fill in the space of time for each Lector to take up his position, and find his place) could be regarded as commentaries, or reflections which the Church makes, whilst meditating on the sad events of the Passion. They take the form of a dialogue between a tiny group of cantors and the main body of the choir. For those who possess Holy Week books, these are well worth following. The words are not only beautiful, but dramatic in their force, as, for instance, the VIIIth. Response on the Wednesday night: Could ye not watch one hour with me? Ye who declared that you would die for me? Or do von not see Judas, How he sleeps not, But hastens to betray me to the Jews? WNW! Sleep ye? A rise and pray lest ye enter into temptation. Or do ye not see Judas, How he sleeps not, But hastens to betray me to the Jews?
On Holy Thursday morning the Mass and the hymn during the procession to the Altar of Repose will be sung by the Priests' Choir. GOOD FRIDAY. On Good Friday morning the s inging will once more be in the hands of the Choir of the Society of St. Cecilia. The Reproaches, which are sung during the Veneration of the Cross by the clergy, will be sung to music by Palestrina. This is probably the loveliest thing that Palestrina wrote, and though very simple in its f orm, is probably one of the finest and most feeling pieces of music that has ever come from the pen of man. The words are w ords of sorrow and reproach which the Church puts in Our Lord's mouth, in answer to which a double choir answers with w ords of contrition and adoration, alternating one in Latin and the other in Greek, representing all the Christians on earth Both from the Western and the Eastern Church.` The present setting alternates these words between four soloists and the full choir. HOLY SATURDAY. On Holy Saturday the music will be in the hands of members of the Priests' Choir, when the

The LiberaiSpain of the last 100 years, the Spain first of incapacity and disgrace, and then of anarchy and bloodshed, was a spurious Spain, begotten of foreign influences utterly opposed to the history and traditions of the Spanish people. Liberalism paved the way to Communism, degrading a splendid and \glorious nation until its v ery nathe became a mockery among civilised nations." The Liberals of Spain, said Father Boniface, had always had Socialistic tendencies while temining bourgeois. With the advent of the Republic, the fusion of Liberals with Socialists becathe an accomplished fact. To celebrate this glorious occasion With suitable colemnity, a great number of churches, convents an religious schools, with their Offices and laboratories, were burnt,- a number of priests were ill-treated and a few were killed.

This was not a comfortable majority and a new development of the process was brought in to "purify" the House. The result of this "purification" was a majority of 118 seats. These were typical methods of the Popular Front and in this way it had obtained a majority which was * far in excess of its strength in the country. Hard things had been said of General Franco, especially in the so-called democratic countries, He was said to be a dictator, which to them was equivalent to a tyrant, but the man who had done so much for the Spanish people was no tyrant. He was the support of the weak and the father to the orphan; he was fighting for the beliefs and glorious traditions of the Spanish people; he had established order xvhere there had been chaos; he had made life in Spain worth living. Only evildoers needed to fear his justice. In the Red zone whole families had been shot because one member. was known to have Rightist tendencies. Franco's Spain, on the contrary, fed the orphans of the war and he had seen the sons af those who had been' shot as 'Reds, and ot those who were known to be fighting on the Red side, being fed in the dining rooms of AuNo one paid for Mlio Social. the sins of others in Franco's Spain.

"With regard to that army," continued Father Boniface. "I don't suppose there has been an army in world history that has
changed so easily its colour or nationality. Sometimes we are told it is Moorish, at other times it is said to be German or Italian, and then, when we next hear of it, it has become Moorish again. The soldiers that fight and die for Spain are Spaniards. I believe there are a few Germans and a larger number of Italians, but it is certain that not a single sertor of any front is held by foreign soldiers. The Moors are more numerous and General Franco is severely criticised for bringing them over, but the critics forget that these Moors are not savages, that they were regulars before the Civil War, and that they are under the discipline of Spanish officers."
the membership slowly diminished, and last year it was decided to endeavour to purchase land and erect new courts This was done, and now the club has three courts and a pavilion that any club would be proud of, and with its membership increasing the club should once again be prominent in the W .A.C.L.T.A. The committee of the club extend an invitation to all past members of St. Kevin's, the parishioners of Subiaco, and to all members of the W.A.C.L.T.A to be present at the opening. When the ceremony has concluded, exhibition matches will take place between leading players of the Association and spectators should see some fine tennis.

THE RECORD PERTH, - SATURD Y, APRIL 2, 1938:
At the request of the Chestt, ton Club, Very Rev. Father Au., tin Kelly, S.J., will deliver ture at the Club Rooms ale; on tiesday evening at 8.30 subject of the lecture wiii ht "Crusading Spain."
Spain -- At Random The news from Spain has been sufficiently reassuring to cast There was a brief moment of the Press into a bitter gloom. exultation when, it was reported that the Pope had made representations to Franco over the bombing of open cities. _ Anq though this report has not been contradicted, it savours ot the The Holy Father probably made a general protest usual lie. against bombing open cities. For he, least of all people, could not be ignorant of the Red bombing atrocities against Algeciras. Tetuan, Granada, Seville and many other defenceless towns from the very beginning of the war. It is unlikely he would protest only to one side. In any case Barcelona bristles with military objectives. The "Heraldo de Aragon," of February 6, :iste-,-1 munition dumps, 68 war materia-1 factories, 5 poison gas works, 11 fuel depots, etc. Add to this Franco's extraordinary forbearance against Madrid when the bombardment which could have inflicted unthinkable damage was suspended and a large neutral zone wa This outburst of ferocity in the very hour of vicestablished. tory scarcely makes sense . However, it momentarily cheered the Press to believe it, and therefore, though lying, was not in vain. The very next day, however, Dean Inge declared in London that the rebellion had been "ten times justified." This was disconcerting; so much so that the Press had to suggest that it didn't cut much ice in the face of the Pope's protest. It is a truly monstrous occasion when the secular Press has to invoke the Papacy against the intellectual giant of English Protestantism. Then followed Franco's terse reply to the smug British communication of protest. He said quite simply that Barcelona was a military objective, and that he would employ aerial activity only when it was militarily necessary. He might have added that the Nationalists consider Sagunto, with its iron and steel works as a military objective; also Reus, with its aeroplane works, and Albacete as a centre of military concentration for the foreign brigades. Characteristic of his knowledge of the people with whom he was dealing he made no mention of the Red duplicity in camouflaging factories as hospitals and in sheltering soldiers behind civilians. • These considerations tend to make the bursts of indignation from various quarters somewhat unreal and unimpressive. 113Wever, the ultimate failure of propaganda as against the fait accompli will very shortly be demonstrated. The optimism of people like Senor Negrin in his letter to Sister Lowson rings rather hollow in the light of the news which our Press is unable to withhold. Incidentally, Sister Lowson is foolish to tarry in Australia. All that could be done in the way of propaganda hats been done by rather more effective methods than hers. It would be sad if the good lady returned to Barcelona to find it in the hands of the blood-thirsty rebels. The good Australian money which she so patriotically exports for foreign consumption might then be used by Christians for Christian purposes. In any case we shall probably never know how much was contributed to "Spanish Relief," and of that how much went to Spain, because, on account of some mysterious reserve, the Spanish Relief Committees will not publish balance sheets, despite constant persuasion.
"To Hear Mass on Sundays . .
1938,
fr
For Catholics, whose religion is not simply a routine formality poked into a corner of the week, but a universal spirit permeating every activity of life, it is comparatively easy to become lax through inadvertence or to make omissions which do not immediately appear in the vast pattern of the whole Catholic life. But there is a modern practice which is finding increasing favour among Catholics and which is threatening Catholic observance with a dangerous liberalism. It is the custom of going away for week-ends to holiday resorts, which apart altogether from their Babylonian character, are inaccessible for the fulfilment of the precept of the Sunday Mass. It is to be feared that at least a percentage of Catholics make these trips without adverting to the necessity of obtaining a dispensation from a priest. And since the obligation 01 hearing Mass on Sundays is a grave one, binding under mortal sin and implicit in the Divine as it is explicit in the ecclesiastical law, a dispensation will require a proportionately grave reason. Pleasure or 'relaxation do not seem sufficient reasons to assauge the Catholic conscience in what is paramountly the supreme obligation of the Cathoic Faith. Even were the practice occasionally permissible, the issue is further clouded by the dilemma of "How often." There is, moreover, some instinct in Catholic hearts often." There is, moreover, some instinct in Catholic hearts which makes this practice, even with dispensation, not quite comfortable spiritually. Especially so in this age when religion is steadily declining in influence, Catholics cannot afford to compromise, however unwittingly, with the spirit of the world. Strangely enough, it is precisely these relaxations on allegiance to the full spirit of Catholicism- which disedify the non-religious section of the community. They have learned somewhere in the sub-conscious to expect from Catholic loyalty to their faith, and not merell'r to its letter, but to its spirit. And a greater loyalty than can generally be found to anything else in this blase generation. Even if the week-end habit could be justified technically (and this is difficult to .see) the .consideration of the special needs of the • Church and of the world in our day should be an incentive to greater selfabnegation in the cause of loyalty.

The question had been brought before the English Privy Council and evidence had been given by a number of professors who opposed the innovation, and who incidentally showed an appalling ignorance of this branch o f philosophy. The ruling of the Privy Council had defined scholasticism as a urely rational system of thought and completely non-sectarian. The vote of thanks was very aptly moved by Rey.

Devotion of the Forty Hours' Adoration The Forty Hours' Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament was established at Milan about 1534, in memory of the forty hours during which the Sacred Body of Jesus was in the sepulchre. Succeeding Pontiffs issued various rules for this devotion, which were finally summarised by order of Clement XI. On January 22, 1914, Pope Pius X. granted the following modifications of thc. Clementine Instruction, which required that the Forty HOurs' Adoration be continuous: "Whenever in the judgment of
the Ordinary, the directions of
the Clementine Instruction cannot be fully carried out, it will he sufficient for the purposes of gaining the Indulgence- in securing the privileged altar, if the Exposition takes place at any hour before noon of the first day. continues throughout the following day, and closes at noon or later Of the third day, even though the Exposition be interrupted at night."

The Memorial Hall had been artistically decorated with streamers in shades of green and pink, radiating from a centrepiece adorned with shamrocks and roses. Greenery bedecked the stage and emblematical replicas of shamrocks and harps were much in evidence. Excellent music was supplied by Smith's orchestra from Perth, Irish airs thickly besprinkling the programme throughout the evening. The supper was unanimously voted good. As for the frocking of the ladies, a description of which would constitute a staggering problem, we can do no more than to briefly say that they looked well and added a happy contribution to the brightness of the hall.

An Excellent Innings. Roach, of Fremantle, is a "mu!turn in parvo" in cricket—he's built on small lines, but can hit them hard and often, as witness his eleven 4's and one "sixer" in a score of 105 not out in a little under two hours. He promised big things a few seasons back, but he did not get among the runs as most imagined. His innings against East Perth on last Saturday was a delight to watch. The way he slammed the deliveries of Jack Wilberforce was terrific, yet skipper George Gardiner let Jack bowl to his heart's content. The Premiership.

new one, The City of Perth Singles Championship, for schoolboys under the age of 16 years. No Wimbledon for Australians. Australia's participation in the American Zone means that they will not be playing at Wimbledon this year—and that's a pity. But the powers that be have so ordained it. This decision will be adhered to unless some very solid reasons intervene. However, it's an ill wind that blows no one good. Wimbledon's loss will be America's gain, for our players will be all there when the American National Singles and Doubles Championships are on. This will compensate a great deal but not entirely, for all would have liked to see John Bromwich having a shot at the World's Championships at famous Wimbledon.

DIVINE JUSTICE. St. Therese of Lisieux leaves this beautiful thought on Divine Justice: "Though one must be exceedingly pure before appearing in the sight of the All Holy God. still I know that He is infinitely just, and this very justice which terrifies so many souls is the source of all my confidence and joy. Justice is not only stern severity towards the guilty; it takes account of the good intention, and gives to virtue its reward. Indeed, I hope as much from the justice of God as from His mercy."

A LITURGICAL CATECHISM --Passiontide. Q. What great change takes place in the Lenten liturgy at .Passiont A ide? A. The character of the liturgy is wholly changed. Hitherto the faithful in the Introit, Gradual Tract, confessed their guilt fore God and built their hopesbe of pardon on His loving kindness In Passiontide it is the suffering Christ who cries out with the Psalmist to His Eternal Fathet to help Him in His dire necessity, for His enemies are encom. passing Him. Hitherto we were • exhorted to do penace for sin. now we are bidden to suffer an to mourn with Christ. Q. What special liturgical regulations are made for Passiontide? A. The crucifixes, sacred pictures and images are covered with violet cloth. The "Judica" psalm is suppressed with the "Gloria Patri" in Masses of the period. A proper Preface is prescribed. Q. Why are the crucifixes, etc., veiled? A. The idea was probably suggested by the words, "He hid Himself," contained in• the Gospel of Passion Sunday, or it may be a survival of the custom once common—during the whole of Lent—to drop a curtain (the socalled Hunger-cloth) in front of the altar between the nave and and choir. In an case the crucifix was covered with a view to the Good Friday ceremony of unveiling the crucifix. The image of Christ is hidden from our sight that it may be more deeply impressed on our hearts. O. What are the leading ideas of the Masses of Passiontide? A. The growing hatred of the Jews against Our Lord, and the development of their conspiracy to bring about His destruction The dark clouds gather round His Head to burst out into elemental fury on Good Friday. Q. What in addition is emphasised in the Divine Office? A. The triumph of the Cross expressed in the "Vexilla Regis, the Vesper Hymn: "The Royal Banners foreward The shines forth in mystic glow W hen Life for sinners death endured Andct I l.riefed.,b ,v death for man proConfidence in the power of the Cross: "0 Cross of one reliance hail!

RUGBY PLAYERS AT MASS BEFORE SAILING.
VERY REV. STA.NISLAUS HOGAN, 0.P.. PG., MA., who passed through Fremantle on the way to Europe by the Strathmore on Monday last.
Ten of the Australian Rugby League team which has been touring New Zealand, France, and Great Britain are Catholics. They attended early Mass at St. Etheldreda's, Ely-place, London, before sailing Tor home from Tilbury. Celebrant of fEe Mass was an Australian priest, Rev. Father Denis O'Rourke, who was born in Balmain. He is now at Limehouse. The team's secretary -manager, Mr. R. E. Savage, is also a Catholic, and he too c omes from Balmain.
Nun First Trained Nurse in Australia The part that Catholic nuns have played in the development of the noble profession of nursing cannot be overstressed. Florence Nightingale was aided by a band of Sisters of Mercy in her mission of charity to the soldiers wounded during the Crimean War. A little-known fact is that the first trained nurse to

After her profession, Sister de Sales, as she was now called, in response to Dr. Ullathorne's appeal, volunteered for the Australian mission, arriving sith her four companions on DT‘mt‘ei 31, 1838. Later she went, to Tasmania to help found a convent in Hobart Town, where she spent the remainder of her life.

arrive in Australia was a nim, Sister M. de Sales O'Brien. of the Sisters of Charity. When the wise and far-seeing f oundress of the Sisters of Charity was making plans for her hospital for the sick poor oi Dublin, one of hr chief concerns was to provide a few efficient nurses to form the nucleus for the future staff. With this end in view, the Rev. Mother selected three of her young and promising subjects, and sent them to Paris under the escort of Archbishop Murray, who confided them to the care of the Ladies of St. Thomas, who conducted the magnificent Hospital of Noir,Dame de la Pitie. Sister M. de Sales, the youngest of the favoured three, was destined to be the pioneer in the Antipodes of that great army of heroic women who unselfishly devote their lives to the comfort and betterment of suffering humanity. Although, as aiter events proved, the Sister lacked the opportunity of using her acquired knowledge in her adopted country, yet by handing ii down to the members of the Congregation she was unconsciously preparing them for the splendid w ork the nursing Sisters have been carrying on for the last 8C years.

One indireci consequence of the Sino-Japanese conflict has been the removal of barriers that had for many years prevented the light of the True Faith from shining in Yilisien, Hopeh, China. missionary Although effort in the surrounding district had met with a measure of success, Yihsien itself bade fair to remain for long a "City of No Conversions." The change has been brought about by the Unstinted charity and selflessness at the missionaries during the present crisis which has made a renas.t impression on non-Christgia tians. 1,000 refugees have been received at the Mission, and of these thirty-five were baptised on the Feasts of the Immaculate Conception and Christmas, another group of about twenty are at present under instruction.
