"John Wicliffe," Rozelle: It has been said that you do not answer letters which are detrimental to your beliefs. The purpose of these Replies is to answer questions concerning those !Aids. either explaining their nature. or solving difficulties about them which may have arisen in the minds of listeners. One who merely wishes to say somethin g detrimental to the Catholic religion can hardly expect me to give him part of my valuable time in order to let him air his view s. Such a man should tr‘ to arrange to have his own session on some other I ,wever.

Whether as many Catholics as other people live entirely for worldlv vanities and money, even to the forgetfulness of religion and God, ;s not a subject really within the scope of this session. For concern is with the truth of the religion they profess. not w;th the numbers of those who li‘ r tip to their principles or who Hi; to do so.

For, granted a regime of frightfulness, the Church would have to condemn it, whereupon the regime o f frightfulness would cease to tolerate the Church. or would cease to be a regime of frightfulness. In other words, such a regime would either submit to the dictates of the Church, and reform itself; or it would rebel against them , and set out to persecute and suppress the Church. History, and even current events in this world should have taught you that. If you study the Catholic Church closely. you will secure a much better understanding of it. And if you secure that, in all probability VOU will w ant to become a Catholic, and augment the one great force for peace and justice and charity in this world.

Mursell. Max Bonner, who won the singles title in the Spring Tournament, is the only senior to be selected, and he and Max McDermott will probably team up in the National Doubles. • •
Boxing
"Terrible Terry" McGovern, named by many as the greatest feather-weight of all time, needless to say, was of Irish ancestry. In 11 years he had 80 tights and lost only three of them. Young Corbett beat him t wice. and Tom Callahan secured a decision over him, on a foul. What a sensation there was in 1890, when Terry planted on Pedlar Palmer's (England's fight idol) chin a riotous right cross, and sent him to sleep! Then on one never-to-he-forgotten night, Frank Erne walked into the ring all aglow with the victory feeling. Ten minutes later he was carried out—as cold as an icehouse frog. The defeated candidate had very foolishly contracted to K.O. "Terrible Terry" within 10 rounds! The glove was on the other chin! A s a boxer Terry was nothing to write home about. but as a fighter, he was "it." In action he was a whirlwind, tearing through the guard of any opponent—no matter how clever that opponent might be—with crashing jabs and deadly jolts. Like John L. Sullivan's. the reputation of McGovern as a "killer" had a psychological effect on whom ever faced him. Young Corbett, alone, rose superior to the "McGovern hoo-doo." Young Corbett was something of a psychologist himself. and as he passed Terry's dressing-room. on his way to the ring, he called out. "Hurry up. there, and get your licking over. you Trish falsealarm.'" Corbett knew his man. This instill threw Terry into a red rage. So full of blind, unreasoning rage was he at the opening bell that he was an easy mark for the cool. calculating Corbett. Terry's seconds almost wept as they begged him to steady up and get a hold of himself. but the little champion shouted. "Did You hear what he called me"
But that's not the way to win fights. Terry rushed madly to his doom. Corbett calmly measured him with a right to the chin, and dropped McGovern for the full count. In the opinion of Malachy Hogan, one of the greatest referees America has known, Terry McGovern was a pocket ectit n of Jim Jeffries, with twice the energy.
Golf * * Ever they are carrying out tests with the ball of golf. Quite a few have been carried out on English courses to determine the carrying power of "the white pill," and it has been ascert?ined that the carrying capacity, over a period of six years, has not varied. At Moortown (Englani during the amateur championship, t he average flight of the ban, from hit to pitch, N\ as 214.38 yards. In the Walker Cup matches it was 218.8, which was exactly the distance provided by tests at Troon in the amateur championships. A t Malone. in Ireland, last May. with the wind against the players, the average was 2!0 yards. Tests held in 1932 at Troon provided an average of 214. and 216 yards at Royal Mid-Surrey course. meIntinued on Page 10 )

The programme for the next Olympiad will not cover so many There events as in the past. will be 132 events, and among those cut out are Polo, Handball, Basket Ball and Hockey. A critic commenting on this says: ""Handball and Basket Ball are childish games". . . That scribe has certainly not played Hand ball, assuming that Irish Handball is meant. He evidently has not seen it played. You can safely rank Handball as the most strenuous of all games—and Basket Ball is far removed from being "childish." Credit Where Due.

H.G.'s
STATEMENT
"I think the cinema is the very greatest art, with the possibilities of becoming the greatest art form that has ever existed," declared Mr. H. G. Wells, in a burst of prophetic fervour in November, 1935. A long series of undistinguished films show Mr. Wells' statement to be of a piece with his other prophetic utterances. A s a ruthless exposee o f the complete banality of the average film, this review of "Her Jungle Love,- by Miss C. A. Lejeune, of the London "Observer," is pertinent and timely.
Her Jungle Love" (.‘j \Vito was She and what was her lingle Love? A . She was a lovely Malayan witl. plucked eyebrows, geranium ;ip-stick, and two sarongs, one - and one blue, and Baab r jungle love. wa, who? Mitchell, pan-Amen -

)f course not. The blonde. 1- Martin.
To-lay there are clearly to be tra,;ed two streamF of tende: ,:y—one to the light, the oth, r to the left. The first is 1e2oing many of the most serious modern thinkers back to which thc spiritual things alone can bring men to sanity here, and to true peace hereafter. The second is conducting the obstinate children of Agnosticism farther and far ther along the fatal road of
ne,;ation. It is this second stream which Mr. Wells feeds.
Q. What (lid Bob do after the crash? A. He bled first, because the Picture is in techmcolour. Then he saw a chimpanzee and the brunette, Tura. Q. What did he say to her? A. He said she looked like a squirrel in Hyde Park. Q. And did she look like a squirrel in Hyde Park? A. She looked to me just like the heroine of "The Hurricane." Q. But you said she was a Malayan? A. Oh, no, she was English r eally. She had been brought to the island eighteen years before by a Vniversity graduate called K uaka. Q. Why? • ‘. Because he was rich and cultured. wore sapphires and emeralds alternately according to the clay's technicoiour schedule, and wanted his revenge on the white devils. Q. Rather thankless revenge, Wasn't it? A • That wasn't all his revenge. He sacrificed one white m an per annum to the sacred .erocodiles•

Q. And what did he say? A. He said, "Tura, this is Eleanor Martin, and this is her father, Mr. Martin. O. Oh, was her father there, too! A. Of course, it was his yacht. They went back on board for dinner, and Eleanor changed into a black tulle evening gown.
MR. WELLS is at the moment travelling aboard the P. and 0. liner Comorin (due to arrive i9 Fremantle on 27th. inst.). He will bioadcast for the A.B.C.
O. Where did he find the white men? A. Oh, they just happened.
Q. But if one year they didn't happen? A. Don't be tiresome. With five script-writers on the story one was bound to happen. Besides, he had a white man in hand already—Atkins, the missing flyer. Q. Did Tura know abotit the crocodiles? A. Certainly. he tried to warn Bob about them, but her English was hardly serviceable for detailed narrative. ( .). Didn't she learn from Bob? A. Oh, very quickly. In a couple of days she was singing "There's lovelight in the starlight with you" with only the faintest trace of a Malayan ac' cent. Q. What was Eleanor doing all this time? A. Eleanor? Oh, Miss Martin, the blonde. She was lying baep in a "chaise longue" in a pink negligee. Q. Not exactly helpful was she? A. Give the girl a chance. Once she got over her first grief and registered a pastel triumph for technicolour, she called out the U.S. navy and air force and went off to look for Bob herself in a neat yachting costume. O. Did she find him? A. Not for a long time. He was down in a subterranean temple watching Atkins being fed to the crocodiles. Q. Didn't he interfere? A . He said between clenched teeth, "1 don't like the look of this." He registered manly horror. And then he embraced Tura. Q. Wasn't that rather unfair to Eleanor? A. Oh, no. He said the two girls would be sure to like each other. Q. And did they? A. Don't anticipate. Bob and Tura had to be thrown to the crocodiles first.
Q. Why?
A . So that the publicity department 'should Aay that this picture MOVES. Against the lush background of the steaming jungle there is an increasing parade of ACTION. The climax is sensational, breath-taking. and realistic. The film is thrillpacked. The jungle is shown in all its colourful glory. There is also a big romance appeal and much delightful comedy. Be-
A. You're very anxious about Eleanor, aren't you? She's only a fiancee really, just a nobody. No jungle glamour, no sarong style, merely the other woman. She said, ji you must know, "Look there! It's Baab!" And then, "Hullo, Baab, what an attractive native girl."
sides, what else were the crocodiles for? Q. Did they eat Bob and Tura? A. You're so optimistic. There was a volcanic eruption. and the whole temple crashed down on top of them. Q. How did Bob and Tura escape? A. Through a crack in the rock. The earthquake wiped out Kuaka and half the natives, and the surviving crocodiles advanced in mass formation and finished off the others. Q. And then what happened? A. Eleanor came running up the beach. O. What did she say when she saw Bob?
Q. Why had she brought an e% ening gown? A. She had seen jungle pictures before. She knew there would be an attractive native girl. Besides, black tulle is always good hr a renunciation scene. Q. So she remembered him? A. Of course. Her heart tokl her to. So did the five script writers. Q. And how did it end? A. Tura dived overboard and swam back to the island, heartbroken. She crouched by a pool, kissing a crushed camellia, and crooned, "I f!:1 in love. What else could I do?" Ard then she saw Bob's reflection in the water. Q. So he married Tura and not Eleanor? A. Well, considering the social conditions of the island, that is a theme I would rather not elaborate.

On Thursday morning, December 8, at 11.30 a.m., the Sisters and Staff of the Training College, Victoria Square, and the Superiors of the various Orders assembled in the College Hall for the reading of the first annual report. His Grace Archbishop Prendiville presided. Rev. .Dr. McMahon and Rev. Father A. Lynch were also present. f the request of the Principal, Dr. McMahon read the report, after which His Grace spoke in terms of appreciation of the work done at the College during the year.

In addition to these weekly demonstrations, others were given at various metropolitan schools to which the Sisters went to practice: the schools selected affording facilities for practice in large classes under one-teacher, or in grouped classe: in three -teacher and two -teacher schools. In the second term special attention was given to Story -work, Dramatisation, Phonics, Reading and Folk -dancing in the Kindergarten and the infants' classes.

I
Easier Divorce
N our issue of the 24th. ult., attenticin was drawn 1(). the .fact that a Bill was before the Legislative Assembly to widen the grounds for divorce. . Since that time there. has been a spirited protest against the Bill from the National Party women's branch, and a few letters in the Press. But the measure is not receiving the public attention it merits, and once it becomes law it will be too late for protest and regret: Paganised though our civilisation has become, there is still a stigma attaching to divorce, which indicates that the Christian tradition is not completely eradicated from the subconsciousness- of the masses This despite some centuries of ever -developing secularisation. was attested to in a remarkable fashion at the time of the abdication of Edward VIII. Granted that a good deal of the moral Indignation was a hypocritical pretext (in the part of those who manoeuvred the unwritten portion of that crisis, it yet remains that the consciences of a good many Englishmen were stirred and shocked at the idea of a divorcee occupying the Throne.• • * * This apparently spontaneous uneasiness at the prospect of divorce, even after generations of the malpractice which should have blunted the public conscience, is noteworthy. That the whole business was regarded with suspicion is evidenced by the caution which required at least some proof of grave misconduct on the part of one of the patties. Inevitably, as moral standards are watered clown, so even these restrictions on divorce become irksome to those who would like to see the last barriers of public decency and Christian morality fall. But this spirit of pagan abandonment cannot even be honest. It dare not come brazenly forward and demand free love. Instead it stalks about in the lovely garments of humanitarianism, talking about the fate of innocent children and the heart-break of unsuccessful marriages. All of which is truer than they know. But the remedy for these human agonies is not further licence, but a return to the concept of marriage as a sacramental state, to the discipline of Christian monogamy, and a general recognition of the moral law over political expediency. • • * The Catholic Church has not, however, shifted her ground on ' the question of marriage. She cannot do so, because whereas marriage was. in the beginning. merely a natural contract, it has been elevated by Christ to sacramental dignity. The condemnation of divorce is not a matter of ecclesiastical law or discipline; it is a matter of direct. positive. Divine command. The action of Liberalism in placing marriage undor purely civil legislation was a flagrant attack on the moral law and on the Christian tradition. W hen the State, therefore. grants a divorce or separation, it simply indulges in a legal sham. The decisions of judges affecting the marriage bond have no sort of real validity, nor any binding value whatever on the human conscience. They exercise a purely fictitious power. Yet it is now proposed not only to continue the divorce racket, but to enable people to enter into adulterous unions w ithout even the pretence of proving guilt for the dissolution of t he original union. If this measure becomes law without a storm o f protest. we will at least know to what extent the enemies of Christianity, in our midst, have prevailed.
On Monday. December 5, a ceremony of Reception was held at St. John of God :'onvent, Sal:,i0co when six Postulants received the religious habit of the Institute. His Grace the Archbishop, who performed the ceremony, celebrated Mass in the Convent He was assisted by Chapel at 7.15. Rev. Father Joyce, C.SS.R., who preached the occasional sermon, and by the Convent Chaplain, Rev. Father Brennan. The marble altar, set in white gladioli looked very beautiful, and the Convent Choir rendered both the sacred music of the Reception Ceremony and sang the Mass of St. Michael. Taking his text from the Common of Virgins: "This is a wise virgin whom the Lord has found watching," the reverend preacher, applying those words to each oi the Sisters who were to receive the religious habit on the morn-. ing, traced the progress of their yourk: lives from a happy Catholic ho7ne until they found themselves putting away the things of the child, and getting their first conscious lesson on the transitory nature of all things earthly. The light which then enCered 'heir souls showed them two paths from which in the springtime of their lives they were to make their choice. !.ike Saul of Tarsus, when struck with the light of Christ, he humnlerl hnelf and prayed: Lord. whit woull.st thou have me to do? ' They ti:a watched and prayed: and haying heard the call, "Come. follow Me." they chose the narrow path hedged in with the thorns of self-denial. In very beautiful language. made more impressive by Scriptural quotations, the preacher stressed the necessity of the young Sisters taking Jesus for their model, so that with His Divine aid the boulders which would seem to block their path might become stepping stones on the path of perfection. In exhorting them to be true to their vocation, he said that their Divine Master was free to put aside the chalice of suffering, to abandon His unfaithful creatures, and to return to His heavenly home: but that Heaven itself w ould not be the same on His returning with His work undone. They, too. in time of trial, were free to set aside the chalice of self-degial, and to return to the home of their childhood, but having once tasted the things of God. could their restless hearts ever again he content. The preacher closed his sermon: 'Courage, then, my dear Sisters. . . . . R emember that the things of this world are ever changing, but do you, the chosen ones of Christ, stand firm in faith and hope and trust. so that when Life's brief day has closed.

In the meantime we hays a serious finam ial responsibility to carry within St. Columba's area. But it is no greater than what we have faced in the past. It is difficult to make an appeal for a presbytery - a church, a school, or a hall are so impersonal that a pastor can beg shamelessly. But for a house wherein the parish ch.srgsare to live, the appeal leaves them open to the charge of asking for soe t hing lor themselves, and that is rar.te easy or pleasant. That a new presleetery is necessary in South Perth no one denies. The priest should live nea; his church, as it is his personal responsibility to attend and guard the Blessed Sacrament. Living alongside his church the priest will visit often, and t rom those more frequent visits to the Blessed Sacrament he will be doing more for the people than any other parochial activity of his. To avoid embarrassing the parish clergy. Very R CN'. Father Walsh, C.SS.R., Rector of the Redemptorist Monastery, will make the appeal in his own inimitable manner on next Sunday afternoon. The ladies are providing afternoon tea on the grounds between the presbytery and the church. We are hoping that our own parish family will a ttend and show by their presence that they are ready to support in the future as they have done so magnificently in the past the new appeal to their generosity. And to that support we are calling all the people of the parish, t hose in St. Patrick's district and those w ho live this side of Canning Bridge. hether you can give much or little. or nothing. be present this coming Sunday afternoon and let us, as members of a united family, cheer each o ther on to face this new task.

indeed all the people of the parish, were the deeply indebted to His Grace notwithstanding Archbishop, who, night. three other engagements that had come out as a mark of appreciation of the meritorious work of the people to crown their young Queen, Miss Shirley Pearce.
His Grace said it gave hint great pleasure to be with them that night. He wished to congratulate them, not only on the very fine work they had done this year, but for all the years since their parish was established. He then placed the crown on the head ia our young Queen, and offered her his congratulations. beautifully The young Queen was and charmingly attired, as was also lie then her numerous attendants. presented h..r with a beautiful gold exMiss To panding wristlet watch. the Peggy Knox, who wQ, next in a order of succession, he presented To each of the _ beautiful necklace. stallholders he presented a handbag as a malt" token of appreciation.

CREMORNE GARDENS. "Wells Fargo." the main attraction on the programme commencing at the Cremorne Gardens on Saturday next. is built around the development of a famous American transport company, and is a story of great pictorial wealth and one graced by a substantial love rcanance. These have been woven into the background of American history during a particularly colourful era—one which saw the real birth of San Francisco and the long period of the Civil War. There are tender as well as tense passages in the film. The humour (supplied chiefly by Bob .Burns as a droll, drawling philosophical plains man) is one of its features. The main roles are filled by Joal McCrea, Frances Dee, Lloyd Nolan and Porter Hall. The associate attraction, "The • Lady From Nowhere." starring Mary Astor. surrounds the efforts of a young girl to escape from a gang of criminals. Newsreels complete the programme.

Mrs. Troupe Farewelled. The appreciation of the Convent and the Christian Brothers for the practical assistance rendered to them by Mrs. Troup, has been evidenced by the expressions of regret heard on all sides when she announced her departure from Kalgoorlie. At a function held recently at the Convent of Mercy. Butler-street. eulogistic references were made of Mrs. Troupe's work, and she was the recipient of a beautiful little token of appreciation. A t the Christian Brothers' College, on December 6, the committee of the Parents' and Friends' Association met. After partaking of afternoon tea sery,ed in the College library, Mrs. Troupe was pres2nted with two little keepsake gifts—one from the committee and one from the Christian Brothers. Mrs. Troupe express2d her thanks for the remembrances and said that the ymemory of happy days spent in Kalgoorlie would always be hers. On Thursday 1st. inst.. a happy band of ladies, comprising the women's committee of All Hallows Church, gathered at the home of Mrs. W. Whyte, of King-street. Boulder. to farewell Mrs. Trroupe. Few have worked harder or more generously in the cause of Catholic charities, and particularly Catholic education. than Mrs. Troupe, and no job was ever considered too humble for her to perform in her desire to assist. Her work each year for All Hallows' annual ball was always such as to merit the greatest of praise. A most pleasant afternoon was passed with community singing and vocal items. tea A delightful afternoon was served, during which Mrs. Maher presented the guest of honour with a beautiful set of linen, as a slight memento from her fellow workers. The singing of "Auld Lang Syne" brought to a conclusion a very happy afternoon. Among those present were Mesdames Troupe, Whyte. Maher, O'Neil, Teahan, Fitzgerald. Morgan. Joyce. R yan and Maroney.

Last Tuesday about 11.15 I was told was wanted. On the way to where I was wanted I tried to decide who it might be that wanted me. and before I had arrived at the decision I had arrived at the spot where I was wanted and found--"The Wandering Minstrel." Because of the fact that he has been my Reverend Editor for the greater part of my A.B.-ship, I greeted him with marked respect, as also his companion but when the three of us had found our chairs the respect grew to joy, for I found an envelope containing five £1 notes in my hand. "It's in honour of St. Nicodemus," e xplained the Minstrel, and it's from a lady wtho has often assisted vou under aliases, and who has been amused because you never recognised her' In vain I asked her correct name or the name of any alias she had used. The only satisfaction I got was to be told that she was single, worked in town, and was somewhere between thirty-eight and forty. "and she wants this Fiver to be in he Memory her father," added the Minstrel "What's her father's name?" I ask ed, feeling that if I got that and the lady was single, I would surely arrive at the knowledge I sought. but the Minstrel and his companion evidently did not come down in the last shower, but in the mighty deluge that swept the earth in the days of Noah, as they lust both gave a grfte There (whether because of astuteness or want of astuteness, I know not), I have come to the conclusion that those five El notes are the parting gift of my Rev. Editor, who, under the name of "The Wandering Minstrel." and I know not how many o thers, has given constant support to my efforts for our Busbies. I theretore take the liberty of placing his name after the "Tn Memoriam." which he instructed me to put opposite the name of St. Nicodemus. and if by so doing I am giving a surprise tn any "single lady, between the ages of thirty-eight and forty, and working in town." Ihumbly apologise. and dear in "Wandering Minstrel," if I err giving you credit for this gift. I can at least express here my appreciation of the mans- encouragements you have given me in my work, and I am delighted to do so before you wander further.

The Outpost, Sleepier Hollow. Dear Aunt Bessy.—Yesterday the royal thermometer registered 105 in the shade of the palace verandah, but time was too precious to be spent lying on a lounge, even if I had one, and my mood if pensive was certainly not vacant, for, recurring, to my mind was the picture of a stately mansion beside a lake, set amidst the trees where flowers wild and cultivated flutter in the breeze, and where dwells a little old lady who has been sadly neglected of late. Yesterday was a busy day, as the Divisional Commander with his A.D.C., and two lieutenants but without his Lady-in-waiting) arrived at the Outpost to invest two new recruits with their uniforms, but to-das• we have returned to our usual routine. Everybody is happy. but some very tried, especially my faithful Josephine, on whom fell an important part of yesterday's celebrations. The staff of officers here would be of inestimable value to any Captain My faithful Josephine and the Dark Rosaleen work with silent effieiency, and never fail to come in the royal car, even on tours of inspection to distant sentry posts. The pride of the Outpost is the Old Warrior who has been on active service for fortyseven years. and acting on the principle that old warriors never die. he would not even go to bed recently when the 'flu attacked•him, so in punishment (and because candles cost too much) he is not going to get any candles on his next birthday cake. Our milk maid is having some trouble at present. A sub-station is being established next year and she has the t ask of training the Court Jester to do the milking. hut I am afraid there are many milkless days ahead Picture the Jester prostrate on the ground beside a leather cap and three-legged stool. swimming in spilt milk as Mr Ellis' deisel car rushes past the cow l•ail and all because the Jester has rooted objections to leg ropes. John O'Brien's Little Irish Mother is not the only one. There is another one here with six little steps and stairs, and the amount of work she can get through is astounding. Best wishes. - -Yours sincerely, PRINCE CHARMING. I n Reply to Prince Charming. It is pleasing to note, Your Royal Highness, That life at The Outpost is good, Though the mercury climbs to hot dryness, Your zeal such a trial has withstood. B e all accounts things have been moving Without any aid from your boots, And the military status improving By investing the two new recruits. rejoice that your household is managed By adept< in the culinary art, For your inner man will not get damaged, Or the wind interfere with your heart.. Please give the Old Warrior candles W hen his next birthday cakes becomes due. If he wishes to die in his sandals That won't hasten or slacken the 'flu For we'll die whe le bon Dieu has willed it, On the footpath, the 'plane or the 'bus.

N the - early days of the Church, Christians were accustomed to communicate , .,henever they attended Holy Mass, provided, of course, they were in the state of grace. The Church imposed, in the ninth c entury, the orecept of receiving on Holy Communion at least Christmas Day, Easter Sunday, The presenz and l'entecost. law. dating back to the Fourth Lateran Council, held in the year 1215. obliges all Catholics to receive Holy Comtntuilion within the Paschal tune. A study of the customs of the earl period of the Church shows that the Sacred Host was placed on the palm of the right hand of the one receiving Holy Communion.

Non-Catbolics frequently ask, is it not necessary to receive the •0.• Sacred Host and then to drink from the chalice in order to par- 1 take of Our Lord's Body and Blood? The Church teaches us that in Holy Communion, under either species. we receive the glorified, living Christ. whole and entire as He is in heaven: Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. While it was permitted to the faithful up to the twelfth century to receive Holy Communion under both species, still the doctrine of totality of presence tinder either species was the constant teaching of the Church. During the course of centuries the Church gradually restricted Communion under both species to the celebrant of the Mass. ln the year 1414 this restriction became general. Though in Holy Communion under one species we receive Christ whole and entire, we must remember that it is a Church dis-
