That is certainly true in a democracy where every good citizen who has a vote has th,e duty to vote intelligently: and, as far as may be, to render personal service in the country's affairs if suitable and called upon to do so. "All Christian people of whatever denomination, shared alike the responsibility of bringing the Christian revelation and experience to bear upon the problems of government." It is the duty of every Christian to "Christianise" not only himself personally, but society also. Dr. Wand is therefore right in saying that every Christian has the duty to see that the problems of government are solved in accordance with Christian principles. I would that his views on this subject were much more widely accepted.

Did they but know it, such was the vocation of all who professed to in believe Christ and to accept as the supreme law His command that everywhere and always we observe the requirements of charity. Most certainly Dr. Wand has more than justified the Anglican refusal to take part in the antiCatholic outbreak sponsored by a few Nonconformist ministers during the Queensland elections. And every Catholic should be grateful to him for that, as indeed. every right-minded citizen. "In the ecclesiastical sphere we are, under the guidance of God, doing our utmost to bring the Churches together."

Feetham came to Sydney, donned his Mass vestments, and sought permission to offer what he believes to be the Sacrifice of the Mass in St. Andrew's Cathedral, he would find the Sydney authorities most reluctant to allow him to officiate in such a way on Anglican premises. Proof Positive! "When I returned from the Lambeth Conference in 1920,I quoted to you certain passages from the Encyclical Letter put forth by the Bishops of the Anglican C ommunion. I quote them again: 'We Archbishops and Bishops of the Holy Catholic Church in full Communion with the Church of England'" Such verbal claims prove nothing. Not the claim, but the proof of the claim carries weight. In any case the wording would have been more impressive had the document read, "We. Archbishops and Bishops of the Church of England which is in full communion with the Holy Catholic Church." Unfortunately the Church of England is very much out of Communion with the Holy Catholic Church. And Dr. Feetham's efforts to believe the contrary lead him into impossible positions. as we shall see. "When I quoted that in 1920, somebody said that that was not the kind of language to which we were accustomed in Australia." Whoever made that remark was at least a consistent Anglican in that matter. "Then you are agreed that I am the Catholic Bishop of North Queensland.' Dr. Feetham has got back to earlier what he watered down when he modified the claim to "a Catholic Bishop, and the Bishop of North Queensland." However. now he's "the Catholic Bishop." Let us follow the track to see w hither it leads. • • • "The Roman Bishop." "I have a contemporary who is the Roman Catholic Bishop of Townsville." So Dr. Feetham is the Catholic Bishop and Dr. McGuire the "Roman Catholic Bishop." Keep that in mind. "The work of his communion is of great importance, but it is only part of the work of the Catholic Church." Only of the "Roman" part. But still. Dr. Feetham here grants that it is part of the Catholic Church—of the same Church to which he says he belongs, and which incidentally was stupid enough to appoint two Bishops to the same territory, each completely out of communion with the other. Later, Dr. Feetham declares that the Greek Church has excommunicated the Pope and the Roman ;Church, declaring the latter not to be a part of the Catholic Church, and that Anglicans are rapidly nearing unity Will with the Greek Church. Anglicans have to agree that the Roman Church is both part of the Catholic Church. yet not part of it? "You're Catholics or Heretics." "Some of you are accustomed to refer to your Roman friends In so doas 'the Catholics.' ing, you imply that you are not Catholic at all."
1_5, 1938
Therefore Dr. v ery careful to callFeetham was Dr. the "Roman Catholic McGuire Bishop," To speak of him "Catholic Bishop" simply as the Would imply that Dr. Feetham himself was not a Catholic. Yet a few mo. inents earlier Dr. Feetham said, "I am the Catholic Bishop," implying that Dr. 'IcN'vas not a Catholic. Yet again t hueirreeb he. said that Dr. G McGuire's c ommunion Was "part of the -catholic Church"! Where does s tand? If he had said, "I he am the 'Anglican Catholic Bishop,' and Dr. McGuire is the 'Roman Catholic Bishop'," he would have been somewhat logical even though his premises were mistaken. But his statement lands him into an inextricable tttngie of ideas. "If you are not Catholics, you are heretics. The Church knows of nothing in between the two, so do be careful to use correct language." Dr. Feetham's position comes to this: No matter what you believe, call yourself a Catholic, and you will not be a heretic. But heresy is precisely the negation of the correct belief. For example, to deny the divinity of Christ is heresy. Now, if a man denied the divinity of Christ, vet still called himself a Catholic, would Dr. Feetham exempt him from the charge of heresy? I do not think so, unless he is more unaware of the force of terms than I am willing to believe. Insoluble Mysteries. "I know my friends of the Presbyterian and Methodist Communions are with me in this, because they as we use the Apostles' Creed, which leaves you in no doubt as to what you are." When one recites the Apostles' Creed he certainly says, "I believe in the Holy Catholic Hut saying that on, Church." is a Catholic does not make one a Catholic, any more than sarng that one is an American would m be sufficient to make one an AWill Dr. Feetham say erican. tliat Presbyterians and Methodists are equally Catholics with himself, when they don't even believe in episcopacy. and certainly do not accept him as "the of *North Bishop Catholic belong they If Queensland"?

They w atch Him as He makes some clay with His 'spittle and ,then as He smears this clay on those sightless eyes. Yet, it is evident that the Master intends working a miracle to heal the blind man.

The attempt was made here, but with scant success, for there are many present who had known this beggar for years. Why, he had been at that particular spot as long as they ct,uld remember. They had spoken to him and given him aims. Of course it was the same man. There could be no doubt about that. So they argued backwards and forwards, with many a question to this beggar. His answer was same — simple, the always "I am he." straight-forward. And then, when they would eagerly press him to explain how it was that he could now see. he could only tell them the facts.

But in this also they were to be This man's pardisappointed. ents might be old and poor and unused to such company. Nevertheless they were sharp enough for any move of their questioners.

Quebec Marriages Make Trouble
Recently two matrimonial cases in the Quebec Province, Canada, Law Courts, have caused much interest.
It is being said in the Press that marriage: in Quebec, of which one partner at least is a Catholic, are being eeclared null and void because they do not conform with Canon Law. In the most recent case, a marriage of two Catholics by an Anglican clergyman without the publication of banns or special dispensation by a bishop was invalid in the Province of Quebec. M. Justice Forest, who heard the still case, held that Catholics were under the common law. or couttune de Paris, which was in force under the French rcg:me in Canada before 1763. According to that law, priests are the sole keepers of the registers of civil status, and the bishops the only persons authorised to grant dispensations. This "coutume de Paris" was identical with Canon Law on the subject of marriage. Traps for the Unwary. The Privy council had to deal in 1930, with a case which brought up the same issue. Eugene Berthiaume and Dame Dastous were two C.atholics from Quebec who were married right and proper by a priest in Paris. At the time the Canadian Embassy in Paris were just notified of the marriage. Time passed not so merrily for Dame Dastous, who was left to her own devices in Paris, while her husto band's business took him back Quebec. Soon she wanted her divorce from Eugene, but could she get it in Paris? Oh, no. She was a Canadian and back she must go to Canada for such things. She returned to Canada and stated her case. To her surprise she found that she needed no divorce. In Canada her marriage was null and void. She had, by only notifying the Emcivil bassy in Paris, contracted no m arriage at all.
FRANCE PRAYS TO OUR LADY. Paris A group of distinguished French lay people have .iigned and issued, with the . approval or the Church, the following renewal of the consecration or France to Our Lady made exactly 300 years ago by King Louis XTTT: "Immaculate Virgin Mother, of the Seven Dolours, we believe with all Christian peoples that you reign over Heaven and earth. ••Following the example of Louis XIII., who placed in your hands the government of his kingdom, and faithful both to his wishes and to those of the Church, we beseech you to-day to take under your wing all that God has granted to each one of us personally.

Pre or Ante Reformation Law. Another such curiosity case came up in 1912 between Ussher and Ussher. A bachelor, of no religious belief, seduced a girl, and the local parish priest took it upon himself to baptise the man and marry the couple there and then. Later on the young man tired of the situation and sued for jactitation of his marriage on the grounds that there was only one witness handy— the P.P. But when brought before the court of appeal it was shown that since the Council of Trent only. has Canon Law required two witnesses—before the Reformation one was sufficient—and this was the law to which Canada held. since Canon Law regulations after the Reformation have not been incorporated in the Common Law.

Young Easts fought like users, only to fail by two points. Naturally enough, they were sorely disappointed to think that their great effort had been in vain, for there seemed little likelihood of Souths or Swans being defeated. But just when they were looking for the moth-balls, the news filtered through that Subiaco had beaten Souths, and thus Young Easts were still in the Four. Needless to say, there were scenes of jubilation in the East Perth dressing rooms, while there ;s little need to describe the contrast in the South Fremantle camp. Undoubtedly East Perth were a little lucky to find a place, but still they are a wonderful team on their day, and should help to make the second round games as interesting as we have seen for many a year. Souths are a little unlucky to be in the cold after their splendid out form of the last few weeks, but they should not be despondent, as they have had their best season for some years. and should be well in the fi ghting line nex season. As was anticipated, Swans defeated West Perth in a game that developed into a farce in the closing stages. With nothing attached to the result. Claremont comfortably defeated Perth.

But it is the interior principle which directs or should direct human activity, which gives a correct orientation to human endeavour—a principle which, if in harmony with its immediate author, supernaturalises human activity, influences it, directing it in the right channels. The fruit of the harmony between God and the Soul is Catholic Action—it is 'horn in the soul it belongs primarily to the soul, and it sheds its lustre by external manifestation In an human conduct It is clear, then, why Catholic Action should have three steps— Prayer. an attitude of the will; Study, the use of the intellect; and Action—the Action being the result of a combination ot prayer and study. The vivifying principle of the whole is Charity—the divine virtue infused into the soul at Baptism and perfected in Confirmation. Without Charity there is no Catholicism—no Catholic Action, for the vivifying principle has ceased to infuse life : the consequence is a loss of faith, and only a miracle of God's grace can r estore it. This virtue of charIty and its practice has in common with what is strictly philanthropy nothing more tfian this. that both lend towards ot;' .fellowman, the latter tending towards our fellowman as man. Charity, Over and above this, has a motive which is definitely . upernatural. By virtue of charIty we love God above all for His O wn Goodness, and our neighbour for the sake of God; and we serve our neighbour because he IS our brother in Christ.

Turin's Miracle of Christian Charity `The Little House of Divine Providence' St. Joseph Cottolengo Demonstrates Catholic Action dinary sanctity—in a word, he was a perfectly normal boy-, with the interests common to most boys. But this much must be said for him, that he came from a home that typified the best Catholic traditions of the Old World. At the age of sixteen he decided to study_ for the priesthood, and his parents readily agreed, but a very practical difficulty stood in the way. The times were very troublous politically —the great Napoleon held sway in Europe—it was in the days that long preceded the united Italy. Piedmont was ruled at the time by envoys of Napoleon--his stepson, Eugene de Beauharmais, with the highsounding title of King of Italy, ruled as Viceroy of Lombardy or Venetia; his sister Elisa Bacciocchi was Grand Duchess of Tuscany; whilst on the throne of Naples sat Joachim Murat, his brother. Victor Emmanuel I., of Savoy. was living in exile in Sardinia, under the protection ot the British Navy; Pius VII. was Napoleon's prisoner at Savona, a seaport town north of Genoa. The seminaries were closed in consequence of the unsettled state of the country, but, fortunately for Joseph Cottolengo. t wo Professors of the Faculty of Theology of the University of Turin came and settled in Bra. He was thus enabled to pursue his studies and when better times came was able to go t9,the Seminary of Asti, where he was ordained to the priesthood on Trinity Saturday. 1811. For a time he remained in his native village, and was later sent to the small town of Cornegliano•
Doctor of Theology
Always a conscientious man, he felt that his course of studies was not sufficient, and now that the University of Turin had resumed its normal life. he decided to supplement his theological studies. Actually his mind had been seriously disturbed because of an error of judgment in regard to a case submitted to him in the confessional. He went to Turin and read a brilliant course, gaining the degree of Doctor of Theology. For two years after the completion of his doctorate he worked in his native parish, but in 1818 he was destined to receive a surprise, for an invitation came for him to fill a vacancy among the Canons of the Church of Cor-
pus Domini in Turin. This church, erected some centuries before, to commemorate a miracle of the Blessed Sacrament, was served by a Chapter of secular priests, who lived together under a Superior—the Archpriest of the Chapter. The young priest accepted the invitation, which was the result of a unanimous vote of the Chapter, and came to take up his work in the church and parish of Corpus Domini—where he won the esteem .and affection of his fellow priests and of the people of the parish, who were for the greater part members of the working classes. Father Cottolengo was a sensitive man, readily responsive to the appeals of his people—he knew their needs and, like all Italians of his time, looked forward to a day when Italy would be the country 'of one Italian people— strong, confident and independent. He realised only too well (as did De Maistre and Lantieri) that the Liberalism of the day— a relic of the French Revolution —would ultimately bring the country to ruin, cause the people to loss hope, and make Italy a despised nation. How sad the realisation of their prophecy was to be we of the 20th. century know only too well—that same political heresy has brought a rich harvest of spiritual disaster in two other Latin countries, namely, France and Spain, and even Portugal has had her sad experieuce. In those days .of many hatreds, when there existed injustices and brutalities that beggar description— there shone in Turin a ray of hope—God was to give the Turinese a lasting manifestation of His Providence and to teach them the value of the virtue of charity. It happened in this way. On the night of the 2nd. of September. 1827, the Canon received an urgent call to a young woman who lay dying in a neighbouring hotel. He answered the call promptly. and was confronted with a very sad case. A voimg man. Ferrario, accompanied by his wife and small family, had stopped in Turin on their way to Lyons, in France. His wife, who was with child, had contracted an illness which necessitated her removal to hospital. She was refused admission to the General Hospital on account of her pregnancy, whilst the Ma-

ternity Hospital authorities excluded her because of the illness she had contracted. The result was a serious aggravation of her state. Canon Cottolengo anointed the dying woman and remained with her to the last.
Resolution The pitiful state of the young wife, the sad plight of her children and the grief of her bereaved husband, left a deep impression on the mind of the young priest. He contemplated it often and questioned himself: "How many of these unfortunate people die every day in squalor and poverty even without the sacraments to give a ray of hope and joy to their last moments? What can I do to change this unhappy state of affairs?" The solution to his difficulties came in answer to his prayers to the Madonna. The hour of destiny had struck. He would open a house where the sick poor would receive treatment, where only two qualities were required for admission—sickness and poverty. The institution, called "The Little House of Divine Providence." was inaugurated with four beds in a small house near the church of Corpus Domini in 1828. A tiny band of women offered their services as nurses, a certain Dr. Granetti attended the patients free of charge, a Catholic chemist, Anglesio. did the necessary dispensing, whilst a young Catholic layman, Rolando, did any odd jobs around the diminutive hospital and asked no payment. The Canon attended to his duties in the parish as usual, but spent all hi's spare time amongst the sick in his House of Providence. Patients were never wanting and consequently the work ;Assumed amazing proportions. It was then that the carpers and critics began to make their doleful prophecies and seized on every opportunity to make them come true. Their great opportunity came in 1831, when cholera broke out in the city and the Home Secretary, Escarena, ordered the closing of Cottolengo's hospital. We may well imagine the grief 'of the founder and the indignation of his superior, but with characteristic confidence and simplicity, he explained to the Archpriest that certain stalks must be transplanted in order to grow to perfection—he was of peasant stock, so his opinion was most competent. His Superior agreed, and the work was transplanted to the slum area of Turin—the ValYou may well imagine docco. the atmosphere of the slum

Yet to-day it js only a memory, for the two institutions of St. John Bosco and St. Joseph Cottolengo cover the whole area of what was once a huge slum, and originally had been the execution place of a number of early Christian martyrs. The place of the new House of Divine Providence was formerly an inn, and the house itself was given over to the patients—the nurses slept in a renovated stable This was in 1832. at the rear. Within a decade (at the ticne of the Saint's death in 1842), the inmates of the enlarged institution numbered 1,000; in 1917. 10,000; and at the present Jay 14,000.

Treasury
The Treasury of the Little House is a large building, which houses the saddest spectacle of all, the imbecile and the monster. It is a most harrowing sight-some are sprawled in various attitudes, others seated rigidly in special medical chairs. No laughter is here, and the only sounds that one hears are moaning, inarticulate noises that have no meaning. One sees only a few of the inmates of that building, but no matter how dissolute or destructive they might be, however repulsive, they are not referred to by any other name than "the good children." During that tour of the Institution one passes the convent, the Brothers' training house, a seminary (for they must have priests), and a contemplative house where a small band of woIn September, 1934, I had the men who have been reclaimed 1:Irivilege of visiting the Cotto- from the streets live a life of lengo of Turin.

The Troubles of Farmer Brown
The troubles of Farmer Brown and Mrs. Brown are those of many others in this vale of tears —the disappointment over the dreams that don:t come true. For behind-all the years and years of work, planning and "sticking it out" in the bad seasons, was the hope, almost an assured hope. that when they did get to the top of the ladder they would be able to sit hack, and take it easy, and enjoy life. Now they are on the top of the ladder, only to find that, instead of them having a prosperous f arm, the prosperous farm has them, and is likely to hold them in its clutches till the (lay they die,,e o th rFariner Brown is the of e farm, and Mrs. Brown the slave of the homestead—and they know it.

This method was proposed by Dr. Nulty, Bishop of Meath, as a solution of land monopoly in Ireland in the last century, A third proposition is for the Government to assume the large holdings as has been done since the war in Russia, Roumania, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Poland, Turkey, Spain, Mexico, where land monopolists have been ejected instead of buying them out, or taxing them out. The Emperor Nero used to go one better and decapitate monopolists whose holdings were required for closer settlement. It is perhaps a peaceful, practicable and sweetly reasonable proposition to buy out landholders at the economic value of their holdings and pay them with Government bonds. Perhaps that may be regarded as a sacrifice of principle. but if it attains the objective of a peacefui solution of land monopoly, it is a compromise worth accerAig There is the classic analogy of the slave problem in what is now the U.S.A.

tion for the owners- The Southerners defended their "rights" w ith arms—there was civil war. Eventually the North won, and chattel slavery was abolished. Yet it would have been cheaper to have bought up the slaves than to incur the expense of a war, to have siffered the loss of life, to have loaded the nation with crippled and pensioned soldiers. Compromise would have paid in this instance, and perhaps compromise will pay in Australia in order to get land monopolists expropriated. It is wise to have the co-operation of the Messrs. Brown in order to actualise land restoration in Australia. After all, they probably are innocent parties to the development that has landed them in a futile prosperity, and the youth of Australia in the slums and industrial suburbs of the bk cities. Mr. and Mrs. Brown actually would be better off if they retained their homestead with a living area, and saw the balance go into small holdings. It would be a change, but a change for the better. They, as pioneers, would get more satisfaction from seeing the land settled than from any other state of affairs, for the only possible alternative would he disastirous to them. It was summer time, and the farmer was showing his new labourer round the farm, explaining all the jobs he would have to do.

When the list had been completed the labourer asked: "How about clearing all the snow from round the house?" "What on earth do you mean? There's no snow at this time of year." said the farmer. "No, but by the time I've done my jobs there will be."

I doubt, however, that he will enhance his popularity with the Communist fraternity for his indiscretion really amounts to the one sin that Soviet morality recognises—the sin of Being Found Out. I must say in justice to the man that he lied gallantly to the last ditch, but it was no good, because the bourgeois Laborites still believe that two and two make four. What made the comrade's downfall all the more humiliating was the vaunting spirit of his letter narrating his own and his party's " successes." The whole thing was imbued with a note of triumph, both present and to come, and a sense of security and immunity which was very rudely shattered indeed.

It is probably a scare measure bound up with the present campaign againsf venereal disease being waged in the States. For all that it is completely unjustifiable, and the very worst comment we san make about it is to say that there is being imposed on a section of the American people a tyranny similar to that under which our unfortunate aborigines suffer.

There may also be a supernatural reason for this popular hate. as Professor Murdoch suggests when he wonders at the preservation of the inte-c-rrity of the race,• a phenomenon which he describes as a miracle. Professor Murdoch makes his worst blunder when he brackets Belloc with H. S. Chamberlain as a leading Jew-hater. Belloc himself says that he expects to be branded as anti-Semite by the unthinking. His extraordinarily lucid study of the Jewish question goes a long way towards removing- the veil of sentimentality which has 'Over -clouded the subiect in British countries.

In this case, as in the parallel case of the coal miners, the workers have justice on their side. They have behaved with admirable restraint, with a notable absence of Red propaganda. organs. of The capitalist course, clamoured for "firmness" on the part of the employers, as though a large and reputable body of men could be treated like recalcitrant schoolboys. The employers and their advocates maintain, with a certain amount o f justice, that it is the duty of the workers to abide by the deci<ions of the Arbitration Court. In the case of the aircraft workers, however, the award to which they object was made with the union unrepresented at the Court. And the coal miners are merely demanding the same conditions of work which have held good in for W estern Australian mines several years. Their claims are supported by a large body of opinion in the , Eastern States. But they have not secured the Arbitration the sanction of Court. Several times during the past few years unionists have found it necessary to reject aNyards made Though the by these Courts. men were definitely at fault on some of these occasions, the fact is symbolical of the tendency of such institutions in the course of years to become enshrined in a rigid legalism which mars their efficiency. This is the old struggle of Life versus Law, which reminds us that the price of liberty is eternal vigilance. When these institutions become crystallised in legal forms, they tend the more powerful to favour classes at the expense of the less nowerful. The public, appreciation of social questions has advanced rapidly in the past few years, and the struggle of the workers for iiistice receives far more sympathy from the general public than from the Arbitration Courts. For instance, a large majority of the Australian people favours the institution of the fortyphour week. But the greatest obstacle in the path of this reform is the Arbitration Court.

THE NEW BUILDING WITH ITS BEAUTIFUL CHAPEL. On Sunday. September 4. the new Pallotine Monastery at, larclun was opened by His Lordship, the Bishop of Geraldton, Most Rev. Dr. O'Co ins. Among those present were His Lord'ship, Most Rev. Dr. Raible, Vicar Apostolic of the Kimberleys; Right Rev. Monsignor Hawes; Rev. Brother ConIon, and several Brothers from the Tardun Farm School; Senator Cunningham, and Mr. Steele, Chairman of the Mullewa Roads Board. At 3 p.m., Most. Reverend Dr. Raible blessed the new builhing anr chapel, after which the respective speakers were introduced to a large crowd of people by the Rector of the Monastery, Rev, Anthony Wellern.s. Bishop O'Collins. In his speech, Most Rev. Dr. O'Collins referred briefly to the work of the Pallotine Fathers and informed the people that this *Society was founded about 100 \ears ago by a Roman priest. Rev. Father Vincent Pallotine. There are now houses in nearly every part of the world. The conduct missions Pallotine Fathers also in the Kimberleys, Western Australia. It was most gratifying, continued His that their work was Lordship, to know appreciated by the people, but he regretted that apparently the Government had not subsidised and Fathers in patronised the work of the such a way as it really deserved.

Bishop Raible, in conclusion, thanked everybody for their attendance, and pointed out that he had been tempted several times to close down the farm altogether when hard times were pressing on them, but each toime Father Albert, in his great optimism, had written to him and urged him to wait and trust in Divine Providence. He felt that the success of the farm was due in no small measure to the prayers of Father Albert. He wished to empha4ise that, apart from their religious activities and aspirations, they always felt it to be their duty to help their fellow-ciitzens in the work of advancingiAustralia, and to adopt, methods or farming which would best help in developing the clountry for future generations. He again thanked everybody for their kindness in the past, and asked their co-operation in the future. He also wished to thank Right Rev. Monsignor Hawes, who designed the Monastery, for his kindness and assistance, and particularly for his gift of two stained glass windows in the new chapel. The afternoon was brought to a close w ith afternoon tea and specially made pastry called 'Berlin bians," which were enjoyed by all.
Appeal for Aborigines ( The Editor, "The Record," Perth). Dear Father,—Three weeks ago I had the privilege of making an appeal on behalf of the Cathedral Fund in Geraldton. Seeing that this was so kindly reported in "The Record," I venture to make an appeal through these columns on my own behalf or rather .on behalf of our coloured Catholics of Broome and the natives at Beagle Bay and Lombadina Mission. In Broome it has long been felt that a small hall would be a very valuable asset in the parish where our people could gather and have their entertainments amongst themselves. At a meeting held last June a proposal was made and enthusiastically received by the large attendance of our Catholics. It was decided to have a hall built and the assembly agreed to start a block collection tor the purpose. I told them that they would have to pay for the building themselves, but that I had in mind to give the people in Perth a chance to 'do something in the way of equipment, as I felt sure the people of Perth would be disappiinted and would never forgive me, if I did not let them come in and do their share. Now here are a few things which we want: A good piano, for our people up there are very fond of music and have started a little orchestra of their own. There are a number of boys and girls who can play the piano or violin or the guitar and mandolin quite nicely. There is a piano in the school, but first of all; it belongs to the school, and secondly it is that ancient that I believe it would fall to pieces if we try to move it from ias place. A good gramophone and gramophone records will be much appreciated. Then there are fife different indoor games like pink"- pong, chess and other games for the younger set. And last but not least comes the library, for which we have already a nice shelf, but no books. I am sure that in many a home there are a number of books. which have been read this appeal your favourable attention ful retirement in the bookcase. These oould be given to fill the empty space of our shelves with good reading matter 9opular books on history, geography, travels, fiction, books dealing with modern problems according to Catholic ;nc;r1,-s. also small pamphlets and periodicals. P t Beagle RR... and Lombadina Missions a number of the things enumerat. el above would be gratefully accepted. The children have asked me to get some musical inctriirnents for them, guitars and mandolins, as they wanted to play some music themselves. The same thing applies to books and magazines, as particularly our young natives are very keen on reading. I would be very grateful, dear Father if You would be kind enough to give this anneal Your favorable attention and to have it published in your paper. in anticipation for Thanking you emir kind assistance.—I remain, OTTO RATRLE. P.S.M. Vicar Apostclic of the Kimberlevs.

Capra, who arrived 1:)y the rnotorship Remo at Fremantle on Monday, when asked why he did not stay here longer owing to his liking for everything Australian, "Ls that I do not want to go to Heaven before my time."

Dr. Capra said that during his stay in this State during 1908 he visited places all over the country. He went to Bunbury, Geraldton, Nannine, Kalgoorlie, Coolgardie, Laverton.

"I went to Lakeside," he said, "and people warned me that, despite my own water convictions. I would find no there. After the horse I was riding had stink deep into the sand. I began to believe them. "Nfy present purpose in visiting Australia," he said, "is to see what progress has been made during the 30 years since.I was last here. I can say what I like, as I do not represent any official organisation. I am not an official of the Government. In Rome I am what is called a professor of Geographic Exploration, and this year the o niversity has decided that portion of t heir programme will be given to Australia. so here I am to see everyone, to learn of your agricultural, pastoral and mining pursuits, and, more espe -ially. to study the methods you take to reThis will be one of my claim lands special subiects.

Holy Name Society. Attendance of members their at usual general Holy Communion last Sunday showed an increased percent -age, 110 men participating; the total membership of the branch is 123. It is a credit to Bunbury Catholics, and it seems that the little attention of reminding personally those who for various reasons might forget the Saturday evening visit to the church on the hill, is very amply repaid by such a record as above. At the evening owyotions about seventy members were present. Five new members were consecrated with the usual ceremony, and all present renewed the pledge required by the society. Very Rev. Dean Hayes gave a stirring address on "Maintenance of Peace." He told how the Votive Mass for Peace was one for true peace. and went on to point out that the present methods used in the world will never gain true unity among the nations. He quoted an actual case of the falsity of news in papers and broadcasts. A t the meeting of officers and perfects afterwards in the presbytery, Mr. Alec Connell was appointed secretary by the Director, and he took over the duties. Arrangements will be made for a representative to attend the quarterly diocesan meeting in Perth, if it is possible to do so. Children of Mary. Last Sunday, being within the Octave of Our Lady's Nativity, was chosen for a solemn reception qf 22 new members of the Children of Mary, five receiving the aspirants' ribbon and medal and...seventeen the blue cloak and the veil. All the sodalists, wearing regalia, assembled in the church before Our Lady's Altar, which had been artistically decorated by the girls for the occasion. The Director, Rev. Father Power, in a touching address to the girls about to be consecrated, exhorted them to strive to acquire the virtues which should distinguish all true members, and ever to remain loyal and faithful to the veil of Mary. Finally, he congratulated them and also their parents who. to a great extent. Ays.-: responsible for their presence thero that a fternoon. As the sodality choir sweetly rendered the "Ave Mans Stella," the new members, carrying lighted candles, advanced to the foot of the altar, where they solemnly pronounced their Act of Consecration to Our Lady. Then the president and vice-president invested the newly consecrated with the blue cloak, the director presenting each with a manual, ribbon and medal. and certificate of Consecration. A final blessing being given, the cernmony concluded with the singing of "Immaculate" by the whole sodality A fternoon tea was then served on the lawn by the senior members, and thus pleasantly concluded a memorable day for the young sodalists. Sacred Heart Sodality. A large number of members was present at the. monthly Holy Communion on the first Sunday, and with the w armer weather attendance is certain to increase at both the Holy Mass and ex-ening devotions. This winter, sickness has kept quite a number away during the past three months. Children of Mary also attended in very good numbers, assisting in the evening at the Holy Hour and procession of the Blessed Sacrament. The Annual Catholic Ball. The above function is being very well organised. A number of bridge area euchre parties have been held by the many willing helpers. More news should soon be available about this e vent.

Spanish Appeal The appeal to Catholics made by the A ustralian Bishops some time ago at the Sydney Council, for funds to help in the re -building of the Catholic churches destroyed in the Spanish War by the Reds, has been officially- opened in this parish of the New Aetna. diocese with consoling success. As far as this parish is concerned our aim is to hand over a big cheque to the B ishops' Committee. No names are disclosed but progressive results are read out at Mass in every district, the priest emphasising the Catholic doctrine of charity to all the suffer:rig members of the Mystical Body of Christ. The Spanish Church is in union with the Catholic Church of Australia. Ireland and every other nation where the Mass is said. The Catholic National Insurance Society, Western Australia. ,Application forms for membership in the National Insurance Approved Society are now available in Trayning and Wyalkatchem. Mr. J.

Last Sunday the Masses were votive Masses for Peace, in accordance with the desire of the Archbishop. For Boulder it was a very appropriate Sunday, as it coincided with the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. The 10 o'clock Mass was "Cantata," and the Blessed Sacrament was exposed at the end of that Mass. Vigil was kept throughout the day by members of all the sodalities and the school children. In the evening the Rosary, special prayers for peace, and a procession of the Blessed Sacrament took place. The members of ,the Holy Name Society led the procession, followed by the Children of Mary, Sacred Heart Sodality, and the choir. The processional hymns, "Adoro te Devote" and "Pange Lingua," and the Benediction hymns were rendered in plain song by the choir sad Children of Mary. Mr. P. -McMahon acted as master of ceremonies. Obituary. The death occure'ed on Sunday last of Mr. T. P. Scanlon. of Moran-street, a veteran of the 'fields, and one of the old pioneers.

since the war began to resume his work among the wounded. He says that the hospital staffs are working without respite, particularly the nuns. "There is," he declares, 'no eulogy too great for the nuns who are sacrificing themselves entirely to the care of the wounded. "Many of them have lost their entire families in the war, or do not know- whether their relatives are alive or dead. Yet to speak to them you would never know of their own fears and sorrows. They stand up and talk as if nothing had happened to them." The primary need, he says, is of materials, since there is sufficent manpower. Medical materials are in urgent demand.

THE STORY THUS FAR— Pat O'Leary, betrothed of Nellie McCrudden, leaves his native Melbourne to seek a fortune on West Australia's Susan Rush, jealous of goldfields. Pat's affections, intercepts a long deNellie eventually gives layed letter. credence to a rumour of her lover's death, and sets out to find his grave. CHAPTER X ON THE MARCH. c OME days later in Bailey Street, " Coolgardie. Pat O'Leary and Jim Houghton awaited the carrier's waggon on which to pack their swag, buckets, shovels, picks and the rest of it for Hannans (now Kalgoorlie). Pat : "Having recovered from the fever, Jim, do you think you are well enough to face the hard life on the • new field?" "I am not leaving you, Pat, where you go I follow. We must go where all others are going if only to see what is on. Wagon after wagon and cart after cart are leaving daily for the new field and the track is one continuous stream of men on tramp.- You seemed mighty fond of those nurses at the hospital, Jim. Why, I had thought I would never tear you away from the place." "yokes aside, Pat, a lovely little girl came there the day I left. You would think she was an angel. You did not see her. They say her name is Nellie." "Mention not the name to me which just makes me sad. I was once engaged to a girl of that name; but, not unlike numbers of her sex, she failed to keep her word when I was out of sight. Sir.ce my arrival in the West I have written her many letters which were all returned, although on the very best authority I am informed that she still lives. Here is the last letter, which was returned from her. She had not even the decency to write and say she had changed her mind." " Would you care to have to account for the doings of all the Pat's in the world?" The question was too hard to ansthe wer, and Pat immediately saw logic of the statement. He was about to admit his error, when upon looking around he saw an acquaintance and to thought it a good opportunity change the subject. "Here is our German geologist." Turning to the German, who was dressed in blue dungarees and white silk coat, he said; "Good-morning, friend, and are you off to the rush?" The German, whose name was Haake, and whose spoken English was sometimes more like German, said -Yar." "Surely you are not leaving your ,_o.cod show?" said Pat. "But the gold was good and plentiful?" "Yar." "Then you are leaving good gold to look for gold?", "Yar. Dur golt, zur, turned to be in my neighbour's grond. Dur Englishmon for English Zindicat wanted dur option. He said six monts ten tousand ponds; one tousand now, nine tousemd if I buy six monts. I said, No; I wandt dur money all at dur one mondt and dur den tousand in dur one mondt. I said, Yar. He started zer f ordy on dur grond — you zee — and dur Tardy men work out all dur goldt in one mondt — you zee — ard no gal.1 and no goodt to me. She no gcodt to me." " And you gained experience," said Houghton.

Houghton : "Hallo I Scottie. • How do you carry yourself?" "No good Too much hot weather, and no whisky."

Frenoliman "Yes, mystarr, you are very kyne.f "I auction anything, anywhere, at any tim : Others are corning. We await their arrival." Just at that time Jack Bourke and Dan Hourigan arrived. It was in a senso an international congress, as Hought.:Nn made the remark. Then, turning to all Houghton said: "America, Germany and France we, in the name of England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Australia welcome you."

THE RECORD "There were no guntrabon. All zuty I pie, mystarr, you zee."

Houghton turned to his own swag, and from a box took out an English concertina. He then proceeded to play and soon amused the company with English folk songs and tunes. At the first pause the Frenchman, in excellent fashion, played "Ave Maria." Soon the wagons arrived and all swags and other parcels were placed aboard, bon-ami," said Pat, "Come along, "strike up the "Marsellaise;' we will march on to that tune to the rush." Perhaps no more stirring sight was ever seen on the track than this internatiotial march to Kalgoorlie. There were tall men, short men, slim men, thick men, men of many nationalities and creeds, all making their way to the rush. Coolgardie was by no means deserted, and everyone who considered himself well dug-in remained; but the great majority of the surplus population made off to the new field, where a new town of mushroom growth sprang up. Some travelled in drays, spring carts or wagons, while some walked with their swags on their backs. Some pushed before them the whole of thsir wordly goods on a home-made wheelbarrow. In those days there were no motor -cars and people of our days would find it difficult to picture the sight of men in such numbers dressed anyhow and everyhow, travelling in almost one continuous stream under such circumstances. These were stirring days. In the excessive heat, as the thermometer registered about-120 in the shade, mankind worked with a briskness and bustle unheard of in everyday life. They saw gold, spoke only of gold and they thought only of gold from rising of the sun to the going down thereof, and again well into the night. This was a golden acre. a golden life for
THIRTY-ONE
many but a life of dull monotony and hardship for others. These were the days of tin dog and damper, of dirtY faces and parched tongues; yet to many they were days of great merriment and joy. Throughout the goldfields during those earlier years it happened more than once that no rain fell for more than twelve months at a time. All things, even to the hair of the head, seemed to get scorched and withered, and the dust and heat on a windy day were stifling almost to the point of suffocation. Nor were there any picture halls, or theatres, where one might go at the end of a hard day's toil for mental relaxation. There was no variety of scenery, no lake, containing water, or river where one might enjoy cool breezes or a swim. Everywhere on all sides was dull, monotonous, sandy and dry country. Still, with childish optimism, all looked to the future. Immense fortunes were to be made, and as one at morning Stepped out of his rough and primitive bed of bags and gum leaves he knew not the instant he may fall across riches in abundance. At first the population was a teeming mass of strong and sturdy manhood, like an army on the march. Soon, however, regardless of hardship, anxious for adventure or as a matter of duty to be with sons or husbands, a few women came. Among these, but for her own particular reason, was Nellie McCrudden. She could not remain inactive, and soon offered her services as a nurse at the new hospital at Hannans. Fevers were prevalent, accidents sometimes happened, and nurses were badly needed. Nellie's metal was that of the stout and sturdy pioneer who has always been ready to paddle his own canoe, ever ready to act and never wanting in his part. With that characteristic hardiness and courage of her young race, she faced the new position, finding pleasure in helping to restore sick men to their health and strength. Her trackmates, Dr. Dan and Mary Rayner, had secured similar appointments. Here the three were a comfort to one and another in their new surroundings, especially as for the first couple of years, when no theatres or
entertainments were available. They could occasionally go to church on Sunday, for priest and parson were well with the advance guard of the early pioneers. Not satisfied with six days' work, some worked harder on the Sabbath than on any other day, while some men spent their Sundays at the two-up school. At this some attended as a business; others looked on, while some were the fools who kept the gcane going. It was certainly a school where much could be learnt of human nature, and it was often the scene of fights and quarrels. The happenings at one of these schools is still recalled by many.

I have spent exactly fifteen minutes looking at the sketch of your poor cubby, and I think John and you are destined to become the two leading architects of W.A., but I think you should not have had lacy curtains in the garage windows, or a tin of kerosene so close to the stove as both were a real warm invitation to the wintry winds to work their havoc.

lo sono ii Pane vivo. Agli Apostoli, ai discepoli, alle turbe che Egli aveva satollato, col pane miracolosamente moltiplicato l giorno innanzi, rivolgeva Gesu' ii seguente discorso che meriterebbe di e'-sere scolpito a caratteri di luce e di amore nella mente e nel cuore di ogni fedel Cristiana : to sono il Pane vico che discende dal cielo; e chi mangera' di questo pane avra' in se" la vita che non finisce, perche' il Pane che io vi dare' e' la stessa mia Carne per la vita del mondo. I Giuedei altercavano fra loro dicendo : E come potra' Egli mai darci la Carne sua a mangiare? Ma Gesu' replicava : In vefita', in verita' vi dico che, se voi non mangerete della mia Came, e, se voi non berrete del mio Sangue, non avrete in voi la vita. Chi, invece, mangia della mia Carne e beve del mio Sangue possiede la vita eterna, perche" io lo disuscitero' nell'estremo dei giorni. Poiche la mia carne e" veramente cibo, e ii mio Sangue e' veramente bevanda; e chi mangia della mia Carne, e beve del mio Sangue vive in me, come io vivo in Lui. Come ii mio Padre vivente ha mandato me, e io vivo per il Padre, cosi' chi si ciba di me vive per mezzo di me. (GIOV. VI., 5158). Voi avete compreso che in questo discorso, cosi semplice ed alto, Gesu' pane della promessa della istituzione del Sacramento dei Sacramenti, la Santissima Eucaristia. Egli voile a materia di questo Sacramento il pane ed il vino, perche' come questi due alimenti sono l'alimento fondamentale e comune della vita del corpo, cosi' Egli nel Sacluniento della Eucaristia at sarebbe fatto, per nob, l'alimento della vita dell'anima; e, come il cibo materiale ripara al lociori'o continuo della vita corporea, ci da' forza d resistenza contro le malattie, rifornisce le energia che e' necessaria al lavoro tutto questo avviene, per mezzo della Eucaristia, net riguardi della vita dell'anirna. Gesu' Cristo nella Eucaristia si fa Pane vivo, trasmutcmdo la sostanza del pane e del vino nella sostanza del suo Corpo e del suo Sangue viventi, ossia in se stesso, nella sua stessa vita, insieme divina ed umana, perche' nel corpo e nel sangue viventi non si puo' separare cio' eche do' ad essi la vita; se no, cesserebbero di essere pane e sangue viventi. Cost' si intende come Gesu' poteva dire si se' : lo sono ii Pane vivo, che discende dal cielo, cosa che i Giudei non intendevano, ma che noi per la fede possiamo e dobbiamo intendere, anche se, perche' cosa totalmente rniracolosa e divine, totaimente non la possiamo quaggiu. comprer,dere. Ogni giorno che passer, cmzi ogni istante, pill' non fa ritorno nella nostra vita quaggiu', e ne compie opera di corrosione, tcrnto vero che se non vi fosse il cibo, nella nostra vita quaggiu', dcrlia cuna alla tomba, non ci distanzierebbe che un passo. Anche per le vita dell'anima, ai danni della vita cristiana, vi e" un tarlo roditore risultante di tutte le piccole mancanze, che in linguaggio catechistico sono chicmate peccati veniali; e Gesu', nel Eucaristia, e' appunto 11 cibo che viene a riparare a questo corrodimento quotidiano della vita dell'anima. E' questa la ragione della Santa Comunione frequente, anche nei fanciulli, e nei giovinetti, e che, nell'infanzia stessa, ci ha dato dei Scrnti come Luigi Gonzaga, santa Teresa del Bambino Gesu', tali fino della loro prima fanciullezza. Lox vita materiale nostra e' esposta a moiti pericoli di malattia, e fra le malattie non .poche sono mortali, un cibo sano ci fortifica contra gli assalti di wane di esse, specialmente le piu' insidiose. Anche la vita nostra di Cristiani e" espos a a cadere in gravi mali, in colpe grcrvi, i peccati mortali, e per le occasioni, e per le passioni, e per i mali esempi, e per le istigazioni che ci vengeno dal nostro nemico, Satana : la fregquenza dell'Eucaristia ci assicure contro ogni assail° di colper; essa e' ii cibo dei forti, l'alimento degli eroi della fede, dei Martini cristiani, Ira i guali non mancano dei fanciiilli e dere fanciulle, come S. Tarcisio, il martire dell'Eucaristia, e S. Agnese, la incrrtire della purezza e del candore. 1.c.1 vita e" fatta per il lavoro ,e dove non c'e' attivita' e lavoro domina la

MARTYRDOM OF EDMUND CAMPION. The day dawned cold and raining. "God save you all, gentlemen!" cried Campion as they left the Tower' -God bless you all and make you all good Catholics!" Then thy w,i down and tied to his hurdle; the t.vo younger men shared another. Ea.,:h hurdle was tied to the tails of two horses, and then dragged at full speed down Cheapside, under the New Gate, and then Holborn. After this came a mile of open country. and then Tyburn. As they went under Newgate, Campion struggled to raise himself a little, in order to salute the statue of Our Lady over the arch. Now and again the pitiful procession halted its pace; then the martyrs spoke cheerily to the horrified crowds; and once a gentleman leaned down and gently wiped the mud from Campion's face. So anxious was officialdom, that no less than 3,000 horsemen had been gathered round the gallows: and "an infinite number of souls." Just as the hurdles reached the place the sun shone out. Campion was the first to mount the cart and to put the noose round his own neck. He began to speak—it was his right. "We are made a spectacle unto the world, to angels and to men—we are fools for Christ's sake." But they prevented him, and kept arguing about 'treason." "If you esteem my religion treason, then am I guilty. As for any other treason, I never committed any--God is my Judge." But a proclamation was read out in the Queen's name—a plan unparalleled before or after—stating that it Was for treason. not religion, that these three men were being killed. Again and again he was questioned, and had to repeat the wearisome denials, and then tried to pray. He used liturgical words, in Latin. Someone shouted to him to pray in English: "I will pray to God." said he, "in a language we both well understand!" Still once more they harried him, and told him to pray tor Elizabeth. "Yes," he replied. "I do pray for Elizabeth, your queen and my queen, unto whom I wish a long, quiet reign with all prosperity." At these words they drew the cart away. An official, touched with mercy, had ordered that he shoiild remain hangthg till he was quite dead. He was not. therefore, according to the directions of the sentence, conscious when his limbs were placed upon the quarteringblock to be hacked asunder. But as the executioner tossed them into a cauldron for boiling before they were exhibited on spikes. some of his blood fell on the sleeve of a. young and brillihnt writer, Henry Walpole. The lad had not been pious. but had felt indignation at the treatment given to men like Campion. and had atreacrY befriended him: this blood turned him into the hero and martyr that he afterwards became, and was but a symbol of the wave of conversions which all over England swept men anew into the Church. And all Europe rang with the news: so much so that the English Government had to send out its apologias on all sides. But not a soul believed them. Campion died a martyr and as such we venerate him.--"-Edmund ramnion." by C. C. Martindale, S.J., in "The English Way."

Q. Of what material are the made? estments v A. The amice and alb are made of linen; the cincture of linen, hemp, or even silk; the maniple, stole, chasuble, cope, dalmatic and tunic are made of silk, may be of cloth of gold or cloth of silver, or in poor churches of a mixture of silk and cotton. Q. Must all these vestments be blessed? A. It is of obligation to bless the amice, alb, maniple, stole and chasuble. Q. By whom may the vestments be blessed? A. The vestments may be bless by a Bishop, by a parish priest within his parish, or by any priest to whom the bishop gives the requisite faculties. Q. Is the Church very conservative in the matter of the style and cut of the liturgical vestments? A. Any departure in style and cut from the accepted use of the
