We cannot dissociate from th influence of the Bible a willingness for service which has been a strong strain in English character, and a powerful factor in national development. With all that I agree. I believe that a willingness for service is a strong strain in the English character, and that a patriotic devotedness has been a powerful factor in our national development. I also believe that this is due in part to the influence of the Bible, with its constant inculcation of the higher duties we owe to .God—duties which in turn breed a greater sense of duty on the lower plane both to our country as a whole, and to the immediate circle of But I deny our neighbours. that, in order to secure this influence, it was necessary to publish an inaccurate translation of Scripture, or to adopt Protestantism and its principle of private And I believe interpretation. that, since the promulgation of that principle, there has been a great reversal of thought in the The tendency English mind. has been for the national development and prestige to becOme the beginning and the end of the average Englishman's religion.

of belief in the Bible itself will rest with the Catholic Church. Even the rationalists are not mistaken on that point, for in their effort to spread the principle of unbelief and to destroy Christianity they openly admit that their greatest obstacle is the Catholic Church, even as it will be the final stronghold of the Christian Faith in the tussle with all the opposing forces bent on the destruction pf The leading article in the "Herald" said that 'popular knowledge of the Bible has been associated throughout history with the national freedom of thought and independence of individual opinion.

The history of America derives, too, from a Puritan movement towards freer expression of thought in a new world unshackled by the trammels of intolerance. The That is quite untrue. Puritans who went to America wanted to be free from the intolerance*which would force them to conform to the established Anglican Church in England. But they never dreamed of any general freedom of thought in America. They desired freedom to be Puritans and to impose their views on all who dwelt in their And they shackled new land. their colonies with the trammels of intolerance from the very beginning. If any man left England to escape Anglican Uniformity with the idea that he would find freer expression of Puritan New thought in the World, he was very soon disillusioned.

Mr. Bourne. he recalls, admitted in the witness box that his patient was a very healthy girl. He also said that from a blood test he was certain that she was free from venereal disease, which is one of the sad things in these cases that an assistant conveys to his victim. "Notwithstanding these two facts he thought that if pregnancy
had not been interrupted it would have affected the girl's health. He was careful not to say that the birth of the child would have led to her death. "Now it ‘vould have been an easy task for the prosecution to have proven by medical evidence that girls younger than the girl in this case had given birth to babies without any injury to their health. "In so far as the birth being a danger to her life or her health was concerned, it could have been pointed out that in every birth there are elements of danger to life and in every birth there are elements of danger to health.

I do not mean an abortion induced by a skilful surgeon like Mr. Bourne. but I mean abortion by less skilful surgeons and by professional abortionists. . . .

A Roman Summer Festival

By Abbot Hunter Blair
s I write these lines in Scotland's capital, a shrewd east wind is blowing from end to end of Princessstreet; and a sudden shower of sleet (though this is August) is dashing and rattling a gainst my windows. A singular phenomenon; for rw.• thoughts are t urned to-day to Rome, where her faithful people (not the foreigners or " forestieri," who have long ago taken wing) are keeping with love .nd devotion the unique festival of the Madonna of the Snows; a title full of interest, and embodying an ancient and very lovely legend. The Legend of Snow in August. Unique, I have called this feat of our Blessed Lady; and so indeed it is.

Critics have busied themselves in compiling lists of the authcrities have not mentioned the above dent as an historical tact. But what concerns us is that the feast of Santa Maria ad Nives was, from a mere local celebration. extended to the Universal Church: that the legend was included, iii the 16th. century. in the new and reformed Breviary promulgated by Pope St. Pius V. for the whole Catholic world: while his successor, Clement VIII., raised the festival to the rank of a double -major. Thus authorised and accredited, this beatit•ial tradition may be .accepted by us all as authentic, as it has' always been accepted by the people of Rome. Titles of the Great Church. So in spirit we may join to-day with the thousands of worshippers who are thronging what has always been to me the most lovely, devotional, and inspiring of all the great Roman basilicas. How many significant titles this noble church has borne since its consecration by Pope Liberius in the fourth century. "As the Liberian Basilica; it was first known then as Our Lady's of the Manger, from the relic of the Holy Crib of Christ, preserved first in the magnificent Sixtine Chapel, and now in the confession beneath tne high altar, where the beautiful kneeling statue of Pius IX. has stoocl since his death in 1378. St. Mary Maggiore. or the Greater, has been its official name for centuries, because it ranks before all Our Lady's churches in Rome, and ( excepting only the sanctuary of Loretto) ,in the whole Christian world. In some respects it is also, perhaps, the most beautiful, its most striking columns (taken from a temple of .Iuno) which divide the great nave from the aisles.
ABBOT SIR HUNTER BLAIR. Lovers of St. Mary Major. One likes to think of the great men who have loved this noble church: of how the poet Tasso sang its praises, and the beloved St. Charles Borromeo used to leave his splendid palace, and climb the Esquilline on his knees in order to pray within these sacred walls. To-day, at High Mass in the rich Borghese chapel, added to the basilica by the Borghese Pope Paul V., 330 years ago. the legend of the miraculous snow is commemorated by a shower of white roses from the dome.
Our Lady's Own Mass.
The Mass celebrated at St. Mary's Major on this festival is not a "proper- one, but the beautiful votive Mass "De Beata," which in the ages of faith in this England of ours was celebrated in so many cathedral and monastic and collegiate . churches, day after day and all the year round, in honour of the holy Mother of God.—"Universe.-

Dr. tioujo, Arcnbishop of Melbourne, to extend the sphere of their labours to Australia in A08. It was not the Brothers' first connection with the Land of the Southern Cross. In 1843 came three Brothers, and these for five years conducted three educational establishments in Sydney in a manner which was an inspiration to the local schoolmasters. The return of the Brothers in Ireland was due to their wish to retain connection with their Order there rather than to change over to a form of Benedictine rule under the control of Archbishop Polding. One of the Brothers who returned to Ireland, Brother Franc is Larkin, was appointed Director at Thurles, anci there, under his care, was the schoolboy who afterwards becam e Rev.

Boxing HENRY ARMSTRONG. Lou Ambers put up a great fight for his lightweight title, but the challenger, Armstrong, was- too good. He now holds three titles—Feather, Lightweight and Welter—and so has achieved what no other boxer has ever done. Bob Fitzsimmons held three titles but never at the one time. •
There is no doubt that Australia's stocks have risen since their 5-nil victory over Germany. Not only did they win in hollow fashion, but what is more important, there was a most decided improvement in the play of Quist and Bromwich—particularly in the play of the latter. This must give them hopes against America, but there is nothing solid on which to base such hopes. I cannot see either Quist or Bromwich as victor of Budge, and they say Riggs is little behind the world's champion. Our pail has not been defeated in international Doubles, so without being unduly optimistic, we may look for success there. Maybe that Riggs will not settle down —it is his Davis Cup debut—but, apart from that helping us, the prospects of an American win are very bright.
One of a family of thirteen, Armstrong was born at St. Louis on December 12, 1912. He was left motherless at five years of age, and so had to battle in more ways than one. He determined to break into the fight The last occasion on which Australia game, and has always looked after himself.

Sir,—I did expect to see some comment of a constructive nature re a cobe might operative scheme which brought about in connection with land settlement. At present there is too great a margin between the price of a bag of wheat and the loaves of bread on the breakfast table. The responsibility for this is either on the master millers or bakers, or both. I do not wish to upset any system unless a better one can be put in its stead. I know from experience that there are few people making anything at wheat growing under present condiMost farmers who wish to tions. make ends meet have turned to mixed farming. Now, to do this, one must buy bran But we and pollard for one's stock. find we pay as much (and sometimes more) for a bag of bran than we get for a bag of wheat. Now here is my constructive scheme: Let a company stand behind, say, the Bindoon Farm, and instal a flour-milling plant. Perhaps Clontarf could provide some good lads to bake the bread from Bindoon flour to supply the many institutions Bindoon, with in and around Perth. the offal from the flour mill, could raise stock on a large scale. I feel that such a scheme would have much to recommend it, and I am sure would prove that the price difference between wheat and bread is at present out of all proportion.—Yours, etc., "CATHOLIC IIARNIER." Bencubbin. Sir,—From a moral point of view, e very primary producer. no matter what his occupation. is entitled to a price that represents the cost of production plus a fair profit for all he sells. Never any more, nor ever any less. Social justice demands that one section of the community must not e xploit another. It is well for the Christian to remember that to defraud a labourer of his wages is a sin that cries to heaven for vengeance. Having regulated the prices of all primary products, the next important step is to see that our money supplies equate with .production. Total incomes must equal total prices of good for sale, since the object of production is consumption, not destruction. The law of the jungle leading to a t ooth and claw struggle for existence, must not be allowed to prevail. When money is artificially limited, if one shows a profit, another must necessarily suffer a loss. We all cannot show a profit. Money must be made to fit the goods, whereas at present the goods are made to fit the nvIney, arbitrarily limited. The first essential is a National Bank, w ith all other banks as agents for our National Bank. The nation must control the policy of that bank and its own credit, hut will not interfere with a dministration; it will leave that to experts. The hanker will be instructed that money is to be the servant of man and not his master. Such obsolete ideas as basing our money supplies on gold, or the conventional idea of preserving a ratio of cash to credit ( after fixing the amount of cash). will be relegated to the scrap-heap. If the controller of the Bank is unable to get the goods over to the people wanting them, or evolves a system that is less cruel and, unscientific than the present one, he will be removed from his job, and held personally responsible for any loss of life resulting from his system. A. system that is man-made can be remodelled, and as Christians we should not tolerate any system that threatens nubile well-being and such as leArls to the destruction of civilisation.--Yours, etc..

Sir,—In reply to the appeal of your c orrespondent, Mr. Tames Kelly, for support in an anti-National Insurance campaign, I must say that I differ with him on this issue. National Insiirance appeals to me as a break in the clouds of a dull sky. It precipitates a stragetic division of class and at the same time places a weapon in the hands of the people of the insur-

CENSORSHIP. Sir.—Catholics are mistaken if they imagine that their non-Catholic fellowcitizens are opposed to ALL censorship by the State of books, magazines, and films. What most people object to is the granting of despotic powers to any Minister or Board sitting in camera, and not subject to check by the King's courts of law. Nobody, for instance, doubts that a government should seize blasphemous, indecent or treasonable books. But many think that an aggrieved person should have the right to appeal to the High Court, and on a prima facie case shown, obtain a writ calling on the Minister or civil servant concerned to show cause why any act of censorship should not be deemed to be an arbitrary and unrea. sonable use of power. This ancient British custom has been filched from Australian citizens. Without some such safeguards as this, bureaucratic censorship will create far worse evils than it prevents. Civil servants are no more and no less exempt from that corruptive. of human nature which is due to the fall of Adam than other people. consequently a strict check is necessary to prevent abuse or mistake --and the King's courts of law appear to be the readiest means of checking excesses of real by administrative officials. —Yours. etc..

In modern controversy it cannot be assumed that there is a single supernatural belief common to both parties. The basic principle of contradiction has been contradicted by philosophers, while even in theology there is no cornman agreement outside the Catholic Church of precisely what is included in the idea "God." Of course, the urge towards unity is not a modern phenomenon. Those pioneers of disruption—the Protestant reformers— were also the champions of religious unity. Cranmer pined for "a true Catholicism throughout all Europe." Modern desire was, however, quickened by recent Lambeth Conferences, which aspired towards the "ideal of a united and truly Catholic Church." There have been chiefly three avenues of approach to r eunion. One was from the historical appeal to the undivided church of antiquity. Another was from the unsatisfactory subjective basis of "Christian consciousness" and inner experience. And the third was an endeavour to find the least common clenominator of significant Christian belief at the moment. The first of these methods is the least Popular to-day, partly because Catholic historical scholarship' has reached formidable proportions and intrusion partly because of the of Marxist philosophy into the domain of history.

tion of racial theories, there was no hint of an attack on Catholic Action. However, the report went on to say that by the 1931 agreement "Catholic Action may deal only with religious, educative and recreative activities, and eschew politics, thus leaving racialism to the Fascists." Whether the implication was intended that Catholic Action, as an organisation, had meddled in politics is not clear, and in any case untrue. Individual Catholics have the same political rights as other citizens, but organised Catholic Action has been raised above the political trough by the express command of the Holy Father from its inception. The newspaper reports to hand at the moment do not made sense. The notion that the Pope's pronouncement on racial theories and Italian Catholic Action's acquiescense in them constitute an intrusion into politics is just an example of muddled thinking. The Catholic Church, by her very nature, is concerned with all those springs of action which affect the spiritual nature of man. That is, the Church's chief preoccupation will always be with ideas and moral principles. But she will not attempt to implement these principles practically. That is the function and duty of civil government and of the general body of citizens. The Church, for example, demands a just wage for workers. It is quite within her province to do so, because moral principles of justice are at stake. But she does not organise trade unions. She points the way. It is within the province of.the workers themselves to follow that direction through their natural right to form associations. Nor does She bring secret political power to bear on government to legislate for social reconstruction. She lays down clearly what is morally binding on them. It is again up to the citizens to implement her lead by the exercise of voting power.

War-Mongering Thanks in large measure to the pernicious influence of the Liberal Press, international affairs of recent years have been successfully presented with the object of discrediting the Church. In England, for example, the Abyssinian and Spanish issues have r eacted considerably on the number of converts received into the Church. They always have it both ways, of course. The Pope, when he speaks is a meddler; a coward when he does not. But on this matter of war the Liberal Press is in grave danger of being found out by the general public. Which illustrates how reckless the mud-slinging has become. On this Spanish issue no effort has been spared to precipitate an international struggle. There has been a deluge of obscene lies.

ANNUAL BALL. A general feeling of gaiety and good fellowship was to a great extent responsible for the success of the New Norcia Ex -Collegians' (St. Gertrude's ball annual and St. Ildephonsus') whicb was held at the Embassy ballroom on Monday night. There was a large attendance of members of both colleges forming this association, and their friends, and the many colourful frocks added to the gaiety of the scene. Large clusters of multi-coloured balloons hung from the ceiling and were let down like a shower on the dancers during the evening.

A s is indicated in the Society's advertisement in this issue, the District Board has, with the approval of the Registrar of Friendly Societies, adopted a new scheme of mortuary benefit membership in respect of which it will be possible for a member to contribute for the death benefit only.

The usual meeting of the branch took place on August 15. Bro. R. Butler presided over a large attendance. The visiting teams who were to meet us at football did not come on either Sunday, so we had two disappointments. We paid a visit to St. Patrick's Branch but although their team proved too strong for us in quoits, we only lost the table tennis by one point. A letter from the M.S. Council, re cricket club for juveniles, was discussed. and it was decided to enter a team from the branch. Our next fixture is on August 29 at home, so will be members' entind night.

St. Ambrosius was greatly beloved by the children of the district on account of his sanctity, his good nature, and his excellent apples. He trained a grape -vine so that it grew all round the doorway of his hut, and when the great purple bunches were ripe, he invited St. Polystenachon to come and see it: but St. Polystenachon denounced it is a snare of the Evil One, and read St. Ambrosius the thirty-five pages of his great treatise that narrate the eternal anguish of the proud. St. Ambrosius listened with polite attention, and smiled inside his great beard. It was his custom to cultivate herbs with medicinal virtues, and to brew from them potions and liniments to heal the ailments of the poor people who lived near him. Once, indeed, he cured St. Polvstenachon's rheumatism: but the bitter saint denounced the cure as the result..of witchcraft, and sat all night in the rain in order to counteract the deadly influence of herbs whose roots, as he wisely said. reached down to Hell and were nourished with eternal fire.
One day, when the good Ambrosius was digging in his garden, the dove that sat on his shoulder warned him that some one was approaching the hut. The saint put down his spade, and shaded his eyes with his hand as he stared towards the gate. for the sun was exceedingly bright, and the gilded roofs of the distant city were like discs -f crawling fire. He could see no one. So he warned the dove that she was becoming short-sighted or imaginative and resumed his digging. Very soon, however, the dove spoke to him again, and as he paid no attention to her, she pulled one of the hairs of his holy whiskers. He put down the spade and straightened his back with a groan. and stared towards the gate. This time he saw a small brown animal

The responsibilty for this impression rests largely with John L. Lewis, who, while condemning Communism, yet appoints Communists to office in the The stated purposes of the organisation are quite sound, but the admission of disruptive forces to key positions could soon nullify them. Meantime at home the policy of intense infiltration is on the wane. Poorly attended meetings and meagre press publicity indicate that some people can't be fooled indefinitely, and are realising that they have cut rather sorry figures in public in the past owing to,a certain lack of discrimination in the choice of platform colleagues. Even the "outstretched hand" manoeuvre has faded out. Local Communists are at present engaged in such tepid and ineffective pursuits as the fostering of a voluntary pledge campaign for the boycott of Japanese goods. • All this does not, however, presage discouragement or an inclination to compromise on their part. It is simply a lull and recreative period pending the formulation of a new tactic. This vacational phase is filled in with the exhibition of fake films about the Spanish War. Nobody of good faith needs to be appalled by the horrors that will be illustrated, remembering that the Communists did not hesitate to employ pictures taken during the Great Further, the War as poster propaganda for the Spanish War. "Osservatore Romano" has exposed how these films are made. The scenes for one such production were "shot" in the old Convent of Our Lady of Pompeii on Alfonso XIII.

Other scenes depict a violent hand of "priests" armed to the teeth. One has long ago despaired of Communists cultivating respect for the truth, but in the interests of propaganda at least some attention should be Owen to the reactions of probability.

The Archbishop believes that the film "clean up'. in America, conducted by ,Mr. Will Hays, has done much good, though in the long run the problem of good or bad films depends a lot on the film-going public itself. If they do not patronise bad films the film companies will not make them.

Many prizes are to be competed for in the dance hall, while the prize of prizes, which will be won by all, will be on show in the beautiful, comfortable supper rooms. Humility bids us say no more than to issue to each and everyone who loves a good ball in its best perspective the good advice that they must not miss the best ball of the season. The Bazaar.

East Fremantle August 15. the great feast of Our Lady's Assumption into Heaven, was a never-to-be-forgotten day for the people attending the School Church of Mary Immaculate, at King-street, East Fremantle, and especially for the little children who were privileged that morning to receive for the first time Our Blessed Lord into their innocent little hearts. For many weeks they had been preparing and looking forward to this great clay, which was to be a very special day in their young lives. As one entered the church on that Monday morning everything seemed to speak of joy. The altar was beautifully decorated with white lilies, the emblem of the great feast the Church was celebrating that morning. The statue of Our Blessed Lady was artistically decorated with lilies and white broom hung softly from the upper vases, adding to the beauty of the Queen of Heaven's image as she lovingly gazed down on the little First Communicants. The children sang the hymns appro. priate to the occasion, and in preparation for the coming of Our Divine Lord into their hearts read aloud their First Communion Prayers. The great moment of their young lives was fa§t approaching, and the fervour of their prayers could not fail to move the hearts of all who heard them, and make them wish they were children again. Rev. Father Conway, 0.M.I., addressing the happy little band, likened their souls to beautiful flowers in God's garden, and he prayed that they would always keep their hearts as innocent and pure as they were that day. Thus they would be a credit to their Church, their teachers and their beloved Australia. After fass the children said aloud the prayers of thanksgiving. Then they left the church and wended their way through the people towards the breakfast room, where a very inviting and pleasing breakfast had been prepared. After partaking of the many good things, they had their photographs taken with Rev. Father Conway, and thus ended this great day of 1938.

A Virile Race. The natives of Bathurst and Melville are the finest specimens of the' aboriginal race in the north, still lords of their own hunting-grounds, and there leading their own native life. Fifty miles north of Darwin the islands are only half a mile .apart at one point, with dry land at low water. When Father Gsell landed there in 1906, alone in an old lugger with a crew of Manilamen that he hired in Darwin, Joel Cooper's buffalo camp was the only habitation on Melville. and there was none on Bathurst. The natives' r eputation had been a had one, but the priest encountered no opP°sition. When he built a bark hut and said Mass, they were much amused to watch a white man making corroboree all by himself.

co, with singing of the Latin hymns and news of an all-loving Father, worked wonders of conversion. Some were even ready to work for the new-found faith. Some "Go Bush," To-day there is a small colony, church, monastery, convent, schools, dormitories, stores and saddlers' and butchers' shops, and boatsheds, and 40 acres under constant cultivation. The population of both islands, 2,000 all told, drifts in and out at will. Most of these are Christians, except when they "go bush." It is Father Gsell's earnest hope that the rising generation win be Christians. Born near Strasburg, just after the 1870 Franco-Prussian War, in early youth he was inspired to mission work by the writings of Bishop Verjus of Papua, and set out to share it. After some time in New Guinea he became parish priest in Darwin. All missions had so far failed in the Territory, and while he was there a band of Austrian Jesuits, who had eStablished themselves first at Rapid Creek, and then at Daly River, gave up their religious project in despair. They believed that no impression could ever be made on the savages of the north. Then. Father Gsell determined to try. He selected Bathurst Island, as remote from the influences of white man and Asiatic. His crusade was a success. Strange Tribal Rites. There is much to be written of Melville and Bathurst, and their distinctive race, of islanders, easily the most intelligent, the most artistic, and the most stalwart Their tribes of the Territory. native weapons. painted bark baskets, and ornaments, and decorative corroboree "props" are much prized as souvenirs. Past masters of dancing and of the hunt, they are the only tribes in Australia to hold a death ceremony—the far-famed "pukamini" —and to adorn the graves of the dead with memorial posts. carved and brilliantly painted. Father .Gsell is best known for his humorously-admitted commerce in little girls. For Christianity's sake, he flouts the ageold pagan rites at £2 apiece. For the, baby girls of Melville are born married. In a social tradition that has not its parallel on earth, when a daughter is born all her possible daughters of the future are automatically betrothed to one small toddling boy. He hunts for his wife's parents and grandparents throughout their lifetime, and generally acquires his bride, if ever, when he is old enough to be her grandfather. to iniquitous This seemed Father Gsell, but he was alone in the Stone Age, and his only batBlankets and tle was barter. pipes and "plenty tobacco" alNays won against a purely hypo-

thetical wife, and so the infant girls were saved from slavery of o wnership, with freedom to be happily married according to their choice. Whereas the old system was hopeless from a propagation of the race point of view, Father Gsell claims that h.:, Christian natives are fas-: increasing. Many families of a more normal order of things are now living in their wurlies round the mission, and some of them have as many as ten children—a number unknown in the bush. Murders Frequent. Unfortunately a new problem has arisen, a menace of racial invasion. Japanese half-castes, arising from the contact with Asiatic luggers that have so frequently made the islands their b ase, are becoming numerous in the camps. Disease and immorality are a grave danger to the f uture of these splendid island people. From a white wooden cathedral in Darwin, the Bishop will travel his diocese, extending over a half -million square miles, and now including two newly-estabfished Catholic missions to the aborigines, at Tennant Creek and at Port Keats. which is far east in uninhabited country of the Victoria River. Murders of white men artd Japanese have been fairly frequent there in recent years, but no serious trouble has been encountered by the missioners in their conquest of the wilds. In Darwin itself the flock will be a motley one, ranging from the hierarchy of Government officials to a large community of Filipinos and half-castes and converted blacks. Father Henschke has been parish priest there for many years, and the whiterobed Sisters of the convent have laboured unremittingly among all the coloured people. The town has changed since Monsignor Gsell arrived there in 1902. but he looks back to the old Darwin with much affection. —....4 I Boulder's Home for I OUTSTANDING VALUES 1 I

Hours'
The origin of this Devotion takes us back to the Middle Ages. It is believed to have been instituted to commemorate the "Forty Hours" of prayer and vigil kept by the followers of Our Lord during the "Forty Hours" His I3ody remained in the Sepulchre The devotion appears to have become widespread in Italy by the middle of the sixteenth century, and gradually extended to the whole world. As far as our own Archdiocese is concerned, the devotion is carried out each week in some one or other of the many parishes. Personal. Mr. L. F. Kelly, accompanied by his wife, infant daughter, and t wo sons, paid a visit to Kalgoorlie (luring the week. Mr. and Mrs. R. Kelly, of Yilgaril, xwere seen recently in Kalgoorlie.

In the tradition of some of the domestic comedies that have recently come from Hollywood is "Merrily We Live," which will be the main attraction on the programme commencing to-night (Saturday). at the Regent Theatre. The cast comprises a family—the mother (Billie Burke) —two daughters (Constance Bennett and Bonita Granville), a son (Tom Brown), and the father (Clarence Kolb), a sorely tried butler (Alan Mowbray), the cook (Patsy Kelly) and a misunderstood tramp (Brian Aherne). The t ampanion film, "Boy of the Streets," provides an interesting study of slum children. particularly that of the leader of a gang of youths (Jackie Cooper). Newsreels will complete the programme.
Newspaper readers were prevented from knowing about the enthusiastic welcome given to the Royal visitors unless they read
the Vatican Newspaper, "Osservatore Romano," which published adequate reports each day. The circulation of the "Osservatore Roinano" has increased in consequence. Italian correspondents.in Paris seem for the most part to have taken a holiday during the visit, while their papers published scanty and bald summaries from the official news agency.

The
Romance of Old Coolgardie By Richard Donald Lane, B.L. 44

. 444.4.44 411.44.4
THE STORY THUS FARPat O'Lzary, betrothed of Nellie Mc. Crudden, leaves his native Melbourne to seek a fortune on West Australia's goldfields. Susan Rush, jealous of Pat's affections, intercepts a long de. 'aped letter. Nellie eventually gives credence to a rumour of her lover's death, and sets out to find his grave, Meanwhile, Pat is mining some forty miles from Coolgardie. when his mate, Jim Houghton, takes ill. Pat under. takes the heroic task of carrying him to hospital.
CHAPTER VII THE FIGHT FOR LIFE. ar HE Coolgardie Hospital was staffed 1 with nurses and doctors who were not wanting in their desire and ability to do some good for the sick. In this they were second to none. The hospital building, however, was far from being elaborate in its design and its construction. Roughly hewn timber made up the framework of small rough camps. These were covered with bag and hessian, white-washed with lime. In some of these camps there was none but earthen floors and a flap of canvas for a door. Boxes were in use as seats and the beds, though provided with mattress, sheets and blankets were mostly made from rough bush timber. the The nurses wore a uniform, butdunblue in dressed were orderlies the garees and loose, heavy flannel,open. and short were sheelves of which watched One nurse and an orderly towith interest some object movingbush wards them along the distant said mark," track.

THE RECORD "I am Pat O'Leary from Victoria." "That sounds Irish; may be it is Scotch." "What brought you to Coolgardie of all the places in the world?" queried Pat. Jeeringly, Jim said, "I paid my fare. What brought you? Listen friend, I am much interested just now in a game called billiards. See, if the white is here and the red there, and you want a cannon, you should strike here. And see, if the red is here and the white there and you want a cannon, you should strike there. A great game — a most fascinating game is billiards. Here is my authority — a text book on billiards." "I should like to live for more than billiards," said Pat. "Cannons and authorities are used in war. In battling for gold a pick and shovel, tir dish and water-bag are more useful." "Battle. I like your term." "Yes. We battle. We have many things to fight. We fight against misfortune in her many ways — sickness, want, thirst, native spears and the awful heat of the summer sun. But concentrated on the hope of sudden gain our minds are heedless of these dangers. "I have often had no other means of quenching the thirst, but that of holding a pebble in my mouth. I have had to lace the spears of the natives and fight for my existence. Overcome and weary after a long tramp I have felt I should never rise again as I lay down to rest. "But ambitious and adventurous kings never knew of wars so interesting as ours. To take their neighbours' lands and goods surreptitiously and aggressively without regard to moral law or right has been the game of kings and chieftains in the centuries past. Here we fight, and fighting win from old Dame Nature in her wildest realms, gold which brings us fame and fortune. Why sit at ease? We offer a game that is big and gold as heavy as you like at play. Monte Carlo is a fool to our great field — the largest wheel of fortune in the universe. Could your cockney and city bred know of the freedom of our trackless bush, of the chances at play and every one a player, then no longer would they rest

content in fogs and tenements. Here throughout this land finds are keeps in all that nature gives." Jim seemed interested, but sucidenly broke off and said, "Anyhow, Pat, can you box? I have learned the game." "Have you; then how -about a tournament?" Jim: "Right, boy, I'll take you on." Pat replied that "it takes two to make a bargain of that sort, and you must find another field for opportunity." Jim said he would like to arrange a contest. "Then, get into form," said Pat. "Peter Jackson or John L. will be here some day. I shall prescribe for your training. To develop the muscles of the back and legs run ten miles every day with Sunday and Xmas days included. Have a strong massage daily with jam or tomato sauce as a linament. Next have a mustard bath." Jim: "Your jam I should eat The sauce I should sell to the highest bidder. As for your bath, Mustard or otherwise, you could not get sufficient water here to drown a blowfly. I saw one man this morning wash his face. Do you know how? Taking a mouthful of water he blew it on to his hands, and then besmearing his face with his moistened fingers he wiped the dirt off with a cloth. In the draper's shop the other day a man bought six dozen singlets. When asked if he were going a journey he replied that he always keeps a good supply and instead of wasting water in their wash he burns each one when soiled." Pat: "Do your best, boy, in this land. Here is my hand, the bushman's token and seal of friendship. Good-bye." Jim: "Hold friend. Please do not go. Be manly and admit your strength is past. You are no longer fitted for the task. I shall take your place and with the police and tracker I shall find your mate. Stay 1 stay; and have my dinner here to-day. But when you hear the gong for dinner don't take fright; for a tin will rattle overhead in keeping with the tin-dog dinner served within. And when you go within just feel at home and say that you are convalescent Jim." Pat: "Convalescent I am, indeed; but to say that I am Jim
Jones and Brown were sitting in the corner of the club-room discussing the recent death of a third friend, Smith. "What did he die of?" asked Jones. "The doctor said that it was an ex• cess of pure joy," replied Brown gravely. "What do Jones.

Brown explained: "He had just shaved himself with a razor that made his face feel like the advertisement, then he put on a suit Jf clothes that looked just like the advertisement, and he began to smoke a brand of tobacco which smoked just like the advertisement.

But while time and science have gone plunging along with almost the speed of the stars, morality has made progress at the pace of a sloth. There are philosophers who say that the year 1938 is too early in the history of the human race to present a workable system of morality. Some time ago in a "liberal" journal (too darned liberal, if you ask me) I stumbled upon a review of a book called "The Concept of Morals." The writer claimed to be "a modern." The reviewer claimed to be even more "modern." They agreed upon one principle, that "moralREV. JAMES GILLIS, C.S.P. ity is a human device, relative to the needs that created it."

AMBASSADORS THEATRE, WILUNA. Commencing to-night (Saturday), at the Ambassadors Theatre, is a modern corned!! drama, "Man Proof," with an excellert cast headed by Myrna Loy, Franchot Tone, Rosalind Russell, WalThe associate attracter Pidgeon. tion is "Action for Slander," the screen adaption of the famous novel of the same name, and re-introduces an old favourite Clive Brook, to picture goers. The film winds up to a thrillCompleting ing court room scene. the programme is an Our Gang Comedy and Newsreels.
SPECIAL NOTICE. We wish to notify our readers and business firms that "The Record" is "MAN PROOF" now printed on Thursday afternoon, and in future will be dated Thursday —Plus— "ACTION FOR SLANDER" Instead of Saturday as heretofore.
I once met a man—a clergyman, if you can credit the fact— who held to the philosophy that truth varied from age to age that what was true in the sixteenth century or the thirteenth need not be true to-day. As of truth, so of virtue. What wa s moral a hundred years ago, or Live hundred, is not necessarily moral to-day. A clergyman preaches that from his pulpit and presently we hear "Christians" explaining solemnly that "adultery" as it used to be called and o ther sex "sins"—note the inverter commas on the obsolete word "sin"—though they were sins in the days of our grandfathers, are not sins any longer! And on such rank immoralism philosophers venture to build our ethics, that is to say, a philosophy of morals.
But, of course, all this "scienti, hc" and "philosophical' tripe need not affect us Christians. We see it for what it is, a lot of hifalutin' verbiage to make men comfortable in sin. It won't work. The human conscience is Also, the Greatest against it. Moralist Who ever lived is against it. He said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away but My words shall not pass." And again, "Whosoever shall violate the least of these commandments and teach men so to do" is a better scandal -giver and it were had he if for a scandal-giver , "learn,. These born. never been "scientific ed" and "modern" and only philosophers are after all panderers.
To return to the book, and the reviewer. He expresses some amazing opinions: for example, that there can be no hope and no expectation of a valid ethics until we arrive at a correct judgment of right and wrong." Two thousand years have passed since Christ, three thousand since Moses, and we don't yet know what is right and what is wrong. Also, says he, we cannot arrive at a worth-while ethics until we find "moral equivalents for all human impulses, those that have been traditionally repressed no less than those that have been traditionally fostered." Make what vou can out of that. To me it seems to mean that we must find a "moral equivalent" for lust and theft and murder. If we have to wait for that, we shall wait a long time.

Thus "the mind of the Church" is always in active opposition to the "mind of the world;" their respective The ideals must necessarily clash. Spirit of Wisdom dwells in the Church, and thus she has an unerring instinct for discerning the very beginnings of disorder either in the thought or conduct of man. As it is characteristic of error to oscillate from one extreme to the other, whereas truth does not change. the Church has constantly found herself, at one time sharply curbing the abuse of some faculty— reason, for example—and later defending that faculty against a denial of its lawful scope.

The same authority affirming the certitude of original sin is saying something quite different. It is right in each case, but right in a different particular.

Actions become good or bad only when our will enters in and we accept or reject. approve or disapprove, cling to or throw aside And Then— "If there is any doubt about consent, if we are not absolutely sure whether or not we consented. we did not consent. "Peonle with scruples are incapable of iudging their own cases : it is as if they had no conscience at all. "Hence they must accept the conc.ience of a priest direct r. 01-%•;nc his voice, which is in their regard the voice of God, they must fly Hind. They must realise that tfo,ir cur- can oome only through obedience. obedience. and more obedience. "They must go to Confession seldom: between confessions thee- miist not examine their consciertce: they must go t.) Roly Communion even when they are in doubt about mortal sin on their souls.. "If they are physically run-down or nervous, they should consult a good doctor. "Their scrupidosity should be. not a source of unhappiness, but a kind of guarantee that they are in God's orace. They would not be worried about sin if they did not hate sin. They would not be so anxious to stay in God's grace if they were not safe in their love of God. "God wants them to be hanpv.

Q. What is the folded chasuble? A. The folded chasuble is a chasuble shortened in front. used by- the deacon and sub-deacon in cathedral and other special churLent, ches duririg Advent and and other penitential days, and is a survival of the time when the by alike chasuble was worn priests, deacons and sub-deacons. Q. Why is it called a folded chasuble? A. Because it was the custom for the sub-deacon to fold up his chasuble before reading the Epistle, to make his hands free to hold the book, and for the deacon to fold up the chasuble in the form of a scarf and wear it over his left shoulder and under his right arm from the Gospel to the "Communio" of the Mass. Q. What remnants of that custom survive? A. The sub-deacon on certain Sundays in Advent and Lent and other penitential days takes off the folded chasuble before the Epistle and resumes it immediately after it, while the deacon removes the folded chasuble before he receives the Gospel book, and puts on another vestment, which he wears until the "Communio" of the Mass. Q. What is the name of the vestment the deacon puts on? A. The vestment is called a stolone which he wears over • his s tole, and which was introduced

THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK. Sunday: If you are suffering from a bad man's injustice, forgive him, lest there be two bad men.—St. Augustine. Monday: There are Cold, shallow controversies on earth greatness, about Our Lady's while at this hour the great St. Michael is gazing on her throne with a rapture of astonishment, a delightful rapture which will grow to all eternity.—Faber. Tuesday: There is not a more troublesome or worse enemy to the soul than thou art to thyself when not at peace with the Spirit.—"Imitation of Christ." Wednesday: Convert your troubles into so many steps of the staircase leading to Heaven. Thursday: The bitterest tragic element in life is a belief in a brute fate of destiny.—Emerson. Friday: We lack not time. but the knowledge and the will to use it rightly.—Bishop J. L. Spalding. Saturday: To enjoy true happiness, we must travel into a very far country, and even out of c-ur selves—Sir Thomas Browne. THE OBSTACLES. War Against the Spirit. Three things there are in man which militate against the spirit of God: self-will, the quest of earthly pleasure, and the lust of earthly possessions. As against the worship of our own self-will Our Lord has set before us the way of obedience to the will of God; as against the snare of earthly pleasure He blessed the clean of heart and as opposed to lust of dominion He exalted the poor in spirit as heirs of the Heavenly Kingdom.

Donald J Chipper and Son LATE MR. W. H. MORRISSEY. The funeral of the late Mr. William Henry Morrissey, of Noongall Station, Yalgoo, took place on Thursday last, 18th- inst., in the Catholic portion of the Karrakatta Cemetery. Mr. Morrissey was born in Geraldton, but had resided practically all his life in the Yalgoo district, where he had pastoral interests in association with his brothers. He had always maintained a keen interest in civic affairs, and had worked zealously for the welfare and progress of the district. Mr. Morrissey had the
honour of being Justice of the Peace, and had also held the position of Chairman of the Road Board for some 23 years, occupying this post at the time of his untimely death. Mr. Morrissey was also vice-president of the Race CIO. He will indeed be greatly missed by the community, his wide experience, mature knowledge, and sound judgment being at the service of all. His integrity and many sterling qualities had gained the respect and esteem of the many who knew him and his passing has caused widespread regret. Mr. Morrissey was a devout I atholic and a member of the Holy Name Society, and gave practical demonstration of his Faith. A Requiem Mass was celebrated in St. Mary's Cathedral, Perth, Rev. Father J. Rafferty being the celebrant. The cortege then proceeded to the cemetery, where Rev. Father E. Carolan conducted the last rites. The chief mourners were Mrs. M. Morrissey (wife), Harry (son), Grace. Kathleen and Eileen (daughters), John Morrissey (brother, B. Morrissey 'nephew), Miss E. Morrissey and Miss B. Morrissey (nieces). The pall-bearers were Hon. M. F Troy, M.L.A., J. L. Prevost. C. V. Hall. V. Johnson, P. Coyne, E. Eickhorn, D. Beaton and D. Coyne. Among those present were: Messrs. R. A. Cameron, S. G. Royce and R Hamilton, of Dalgety _ and Company: L. S. Dean (Harris.

EFORE the German Cardinals, Archbishops and Bishops go to Fulda for their general meeting, Cardinal Lnnitzer, Archbishop of Vienna, will go north to see Mgr. Count von Preysing, Bishop of Berlin. His Eminence will be accompanied by the Archbishop of Salzburg. Mgr. Waitz. A t this meeting they will also find Cardinal Faulhaber, Archbishop of Munich, and the Bishop of Muenster, Mgr. Count Galen. The purpose of the meeting is to bring about a joint line of conduct between the German and Austrian Hierarchies in matters affecting the Church in Greater Germany. Meeting in Salzburg. The Austrian prelates have not been invited to participate in the Fulda meeting, but there is a possibility that they will issue a joint pastoral in the near future, based on their conversations with the German Bishops in Berlin. A special meeting of the Austrian Bishops will be held in Salzburg, probably about the time when their German colleagues are meeting in Fulda. All rumours of a serious split affecting the Church in Austria are entirely devoid of foundation. A rchbishop Waltz was recently again received in audience by the Holy Father in Rome. It is understood that during that audience the Holy Father had on mi desk Archbishop's Waitz's article defending the position taken by the Austrian Hierarchy during the "Anschlusswhich the Vienna weekly, ' Schoenere Zukunft" had published shortly before this audience took place in Castel Gandolfo.
