THE

LENTEN LAWS RULES OF FASTING AND ABSTINENCE DURING LENT

ABSTI NENCE :

1. Everyone in good health who has reached the age of reason is obliged to abstain. To abstain is a serious obligation. 2. All Fridays and Ash Wednesday are days of abstinence.

Flesh meat and meat soup are forbidden. Lard and dripping may be used on days of abstinence provided they be used merely as a condiment or seasoning.

FAS1 : 1. Everyone in good health over 21 years of age and under 59, and not engaged in exhausting work, is obliged to fast. This is a serious obligation. 2. Every day of Lent, from Ash Wednesday to midnight on Holy Saturday, is a day of fast, except all Sundays and St. Patrick's Day (March 17). 3. On fast days, those bound to fast are allowed one full meal, that is a meal without any limitation as to quantity, and two smaller meals. At the two smaller meals they may take whatever is necessary to enable them to perform their ordinary duties. The full meal may be taken either in the evening or at midday (A handy way of computing how much food may be taken at the smaller meals is to say that together they should not equal the full meal.) 4. Eating between meals, even fruit and confectionery, breaks the fast. However, a biscuit or some similar small portion of food may be taken with a drink. Liquids do not break the fast (a liquid is anything that is consumed as a drink, e.g. tea, milk. fruit juices, beaten egg, etc.). 6. On days of fast without abstinence, meat is allowed at all meals,

NOTE: ( a) The solemnities of marriage (Nuptial Mass, the use of music, etc.) are forbidden until Easter Monday. (b) The Pascal Precept is required to be fulfilled between Ash Wednesday and Trinity Sunday (May 24).

He will send others to the various Christian churches which sent observers to the Second Vatican Council and to heads of diplomatic missions accredited to the Holy See. Others will go to the Catholic patriarchs he met when he visited Jerusalem and other parts of. the Holy Land in early January. The Pontiff said his distribution of the candles to non-Catholics should add a "ecumenical significance" to the feast which commemorates Christ as the Light of

the World.

In the annual ceremony in the Consistorial Hall of the Vatican (Feb. 21, hundreds of bishops. heads of religious orders and representatives of the various knighthoods of the Church knelt before the Pope and presented him the decorated candles. The ceremony is designed

THE LIGHT OF CHRIST Pope Paul told the assembly he would send the can-

dleS to various parts of the world to remind those who see them of the light of

Christ. "Christ is indeed the light of the earth, the life of the

Church, the light of souls,"

he said. "And it is to give to ourselves, to give to others, to everyone, the joy of fixing their eyes on this lone light of salvation that we,

"As the prayer of today's liturgy says: 'So that, illuminated and instructed by the grace of the Holy Spirit, we may truly know and faithfully love.' "

Pope Paul also said he would send other candle to various majo basilicas and to "severar humble churches . . . whose piety we intend to kindle by honouring their poverty," The churches were not named. F OLLOWS P RECEDENT

. In singling out various groups and individuals, Pope Paul followed a precedent of Pope John XXIII who, in

1960, first sent candles to

principal churches throughout the world to invite Ca-

tholics to pray for the success of the ecumenical council. At noon on the day of the Candlemas ceremony. the Pope appeared at his window overlooking St. Peter's Square and asked prayers that Christ will guide the world.

The orphanage started almost by accident. A former pupil of a nearby convent school died in childbirth and the father, unable to care for the child, asked the Sisters at the Mission to look after it. The Sisters agreed and before long the word of their charitable deed had spread. It was not long before the Sisters were inundated with new-born babies. Having no money, the Sisters have had to house the babies in a dilapidated building, without the necessary i tems and facil ities required for the care of babies—sick or healthy. The water coming from an old well was impure. Rubbish was beginning to pile up around the plain brick building, the oldest in Ubon, and monsoonal rains turned the grounds into a breeding place for flies and mosquitoes. The two Sisters at the Mission, often assisted by a novice from a nearby convent, managed the best they could under these circumstances. Ho weve r, when the death rate of the babies reached about fifty per cent, it was decided that some thing more had to be done. The men, including a number of non-Catholics, began work on an organised basis. In their own time and out of their own pockets, they set about cleaning up and repairing the surrounds.

clothing and ample supplies were received by the orphanage. However, as Ubon ex periences a long summer, there is need for summer clothing, such as nappies, singlets and rompers for the babies, whose ages range from a few days to about four years.

Plastic Toys The Sisters are in urgent need of soft plastic toys. Some of these babies have never even seen a rattle or teething ring and Father Christmas is unheard of at the orphanage. It is gratifying to note that the efforts of these men have not been in vain. The death rate among the babies at the orphanage

THERE'S A NEW LIFE FOR BEER CANS IN MAKING RUBBLE DRAINS

Work Force Two large rubble drains were built and any diseased trees and shrubs were destroyed. A new iron roof now covers the laundry and kitchen area at the back and the "nursery" has been completely enclosed with fly wire. A complete electrical rewiring of the building was carried out and fluorescent lighting was installed. The main organiser of the work force was Corporal George Carney. who was a tower of strength in the project, working each fail. without Saturday However, he has recently left the area and will be singularly missed by the Sisters.

Equipment Recently it was arranged to have the inmates inspected by two Macquarie Street eye specialists who were visiting the area. The men have approached several Australian firms —so far without success— to donate necessary equipment for the running of the orphanage. Items such as a combustion stove, refrigerator and electric fans are well out of the reach of these few men. One well - known firm has already supplied a ton of small tins of their baby foods and it is hoped that similar firms will follow suit.

Pilgrimage Threw A Spotlight On Letter When Pope Paul announced his pilgrimage to the Holy Land, a certain amount of attention was concentrated on Father Paul Gauthier, a French priest who works among the poor of Nazareth. Father Gauthier had writ- it only ideas but also experiten a letter to Pope Paul on ence of poverty. When the August 15 which contained priest - workers were disbanded in France in 1954, a paragraph inviting him to he was a teacher of theology visit the Holy Land.

fly lived in such a dark cave that the children were halfblind. A father of seven went mad because he was unable to support his family. CO-OPERATIVE 'Father Gauthier organised an investigation into the lives of 200 families, wrote a report on them, received a promise of aid from the government and support from Church leaders and unions. He instilled sufficient confidence in a small group of workers to form a housing co-operative. His worry was that the neediest families would not be able to pay the minimum necessary to enter the cooperative. At this point a Belgian priest, Father Warlomont, while on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, met Father Gauthier. He sympathised with the French priest's aspirations and on his return home sold his car. He sent the money, and much more that he collected, to Father Gauthier so that long-term loans without interest could be made t o the poorest. Apartments were built to accommodate 1,000 people and this activity, and the confidence it engendered, was a major decisive factor in restoring Nazareth to a healthy economic condition. Father Gauthier initially lived in a hut similar to those temporary structures which road-workers use. Now he has a small rectangular concrete house, the poorest in the co-operative. Nearby is a grotto-chapel, which contains the simplest of altars, three ikons, some candles and petrol lamps. Previously the grotto was a family's home. The house has four rooms. The first, packed with books on theology, ecclesiology and sociology, is Father Gauthier's. The second is a living room and kitchen where there is a petrol stove as the house has no electric power. The other two rooms were occupied by a Belgian and two Brazilians.

EVERYMAN'S By Father JOHN C. KNOTT

but does not exhaust the possibilities of man. They have invited the Companions because they see them as representatives of a different vision which nevertheless shares their respect for work. The Jews of the kibbutz are normally areligious and regard the Church as distant not only because they are Jews but also because they consider the Church as linked to capitalism. NO SYNAGOGUE The Companions can share the kibbutz Jews' respect for work, but not their elevation of collectivism to a super-value. Their apostolate consists of a humble, patient presence, a solidarity of work and destiny, and the witness of a charity as strong and more profound than that of socialist solidarity. There is no synagogue on the kibbutz, but a chapel has been made available to the two Companions. Jewish visitors are rather surprised when they ask is there a synagogue and the answer is, "No, but we have a Cath olic chapel." The kibbutz apostolate can be considered a trial run of an apostolate to the Marxist world. The BethSahur apostolate is a trial run of the apostolate to the underdeveloped countries. Beth-Sahur is a village a short distance from Bethlehem in Jordan. The first thing which strikes one on approaching it is the aridity of the landscape. There is scant work provided by the land and there is little in the village apart from in Jordan's sole plastic factory'. One quarter of the men have migrated to countries ranging from Germany to Australia. Another quarter z. re unemployed. INITIATIVE A year ago a pair of French female Companions took up residence in BethSahur. One went to work in the plastics factory' while the other kept house. It was even more difficult than it had been in Nazareth at the start. For one thing the Arabs found it di:icult to accept women with social initative: for another the situation had been stagnant for the whole 15 years since the end of the ArabIsrael war had seen the population double to 25,000. In August last year three male Companions moved to Beth-Sahur and the effect of the Companions is already being felt. There is a new spirit of co-operation in the village which was divided over seemingly insuperable problems. Plans for a "workers' city" similar to that of Nazareth are under way. There is also a new ecumenical spirit among the small Christian communities and between the Christians and Muslims. Father Gauthier divides his time between Nazareth and Beth-Sahur and he crosses the troubled Jordan-Israel frontier as many times as he wants to because both sides recognise that this 48-year-old, tall, thin, blue-eyed Frenchman aims only at the good of the poor, irrespective of nationality He hftes that the Church will reaffirm its unity with the poor in every sense of that word in the Council and in practice. The next session might show the wide concensus there is with Father Gauthier's ideas.

Seek And You Shall Find THE QUESTION IS A HAUNTING ONE. Where do you find them—the poor, that is. In one sense they are all around you. At one time or another e veryone is in need of a helping hand, a kind word, a sympathetic ear, a bit of money, a shared thought or feeling, a smile, a recommendation, an opening of a door, a new opportunity. But these are what might be called the deserving poor. Give them a little help and off they go on their own. It is something like the driver of a car stuck in the snow. He rocks the car back and forth, but does not have quite enough traction to , move out under his own power.

T HE

EXTRA

PUSH

Along you come and at the strategic moment you add the little extra push that was needed. Off he goes with a wave of thanks, relieved that he is free. You stand watching with a little glow at having been able to help. To that type of need most people will respond and there are enough daily opportunities not to have to create more, although sometimes our reaction could be quicker and more generous. Even in the more serious cases such as catastrophic illness or the sudden death of a parent of a large and young family. friends, relatives and associates will rally around to help. To the extent that our hearts are touched by human need will we respond. And we will respond as frequently as we can as long as we know it is a deserving case. By deserving is meant not only the presence of a need, but that our gift will help them to help themselves. After all, isn't that whom God helps—those who help themselves? But what about the so-called undeserving case —the one who has a need but shows no particular improvement when he is helped and little if any gratitude. These are the ones, and their name is legion, who in a sense really deserve at least the. charity of mankind because in too many cases they are the victims of the injustices of society. If you were to seek for them in the spirit of Christ, as the least of His brethren, where would you be liable to find them? You five senes would be of special assistance in this search.

MISERY

your sens, of sight, tor example. The next time you have a few minutes slowly drive through a slum area. Every one of our cities. large or small. and a good part of our rural districts, have them. Look at the decaying buildings. If you are with someone walk into one of the tenements and see the number of people living in one room. paying exorbitant rent for the privilege of sharing a common faucet with other groups of human beings. You can't call them families, since their only bond is common misery. You won't have to over-exercise your sense of smell. The odour of decay and filth combined with that coming from the common, usually stopped-up t oilets, will add its own emphasis. The hallways will be dark, so that your hand instinctively will touch the damp. flakey wall or the greasy railing and draw back just as quickly. The sudden, sharp cry of a young child in pain could mean many things in other circumstances, but here it could be that the rats are moving in dark and airless bedroom. Above all is the taste of bitterness in your mouth that human beings would have to live in such an inhuman environment. There is a strong desire to run into the fresh air before nausea comes, and back of it all is the thought or the fear that this could be you living this way, as it could have been your child who was bitten. What can be done? First of all there is needed the aroused conscience of our citizenry which will demand action of responsible authorities.

RECORD

Book Records Remarks Hitler Made MUNSTER, Germany. — "I would simply march into the Vatican and lug out the whole gang, and then I would say, 'Sorry, I made a mistake!' But then we'd be rid of them!" This remark was made by Adolf Hitler, Nazi dictator, according to a book by Henry Picker. He says the remark is based on stenographic notes made by himself while he was present at meals in the wartime headquarters of the "Fuehrer" during the years 1941 and 1942. The book, "Hitler's Tischgespraeche im Fuehrerhaptquartier" ( Hitler's Table Talk at the Fuehrer's Headquarters), was written by Picker and Heinrich Heim, and published in Stuttgart. Hitler's remark was made in reference to Benito Mussolini, the late "Duce" of Italy, whom Hitler blamed for having made what he thought were much too ample concessions to the Holy See in the Lateran treaties. The author of the book also reports a statement by Hitler proclaiming the -impending collapse of the Church," although it might take one to 200 years. "I am not interested in articles of faith," Hitler said, "but I won't tolerate

any interference of those sky pilots, for the State must be absolute boss, and this organised deceit must be hit hard. "It ought to be possible," he added cynically, "tp arrange for only dumb-bells to stand on pulpits, and only old women to listen to them because all these men of the cloth are a curse." Hitler also said, according t o Picker, that if the government were to cut off its subsidies to the churches, "bishops and clergy would all cringe and beg for help . . . As for myself, once I am buried, I would not want to have any popists around within a ten-foot pole distance." "Echo der Zeit," Catholic weekly here, in reviewing the book, points out that one of Hitler's remarks it reports, constitutes an answer to the charges levelled at the late Pope Pius XII by Rolf Hochhuth in connection with the Nazi persecution of the Jewish people. Hitler said: "If anywhere in this country there were a mutiny, I would have all the opposition leaders, including those who belong to political Catholicism, dragged out of their homes, arrested and executed on the spot." Hitler, says the paper, in his hatred of the Jews also meant to destroy Christianity, and in Christianity, Jewry. "Jewish Christianity" was the phrase he frequently used indicatitng that both Jews and Christians were the objects of his venom.

This is the problem taken on by the bishops of the Second Vatican Council in a special chapter in their constitution on worship, which was formally enacted December 4. The council Fathers were aware, in dealing w ith this subject, that Advent and Lent, Christmas and Easter, and half a dozen other holy days, are probably the only observances in the Church calendar that have any impact on most Catholics. As in in other parts of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, here too the council has decreed a reform, which must be worked out in detail gradually. It is intended to suit "the traditional customs and discipline of the sacred seasons" to "the conditions of modern times." One paragraph, for example, contains a decision to revive the twofold character of the Lenten season, first as a time to recall the sacrament of Baptism, next as a time of penance, "not only internal and individual, but also external and social." There is a long .background to the coucil's decree to reform the practices and celebrations which recur in each Church year. Pope St. Pius X began to disentangle the observance of Sunday as the Lord's day and of Lent itself from the overgrowth of the feast days of saints. Pope Pius XII concentrated his spiritual renewal of the Church on Easter, with a rearrangement and shortening of the Holy Week services. Pope John XXIII simplified the complex series of feasts a little and tried to give some relief to the weekday Mass-goer from the constant repetition of the requiem Mass formula which prevails in some places.

Revisions Needed council, however, The second reference, "litTHISspeaks of changes urgical catechesis," refers to

"both in the liturgy and by liturgical catechesis." The first reference is to the r evisions needed if the progress of the Church's year is to be effective and meaningful for the people.

veloped during the liturgy itself, especially during the Mass. A lesson learned early in the Second Vatican Council is that the truths, articles and dogmas of faith may not be studied or preached as a disjointed series of isolated facts. Their unity in the single mystery of God's plan for men must always be foremost. The same is true of the Church year with its apparent conglomeration of feasts of varying importance — it needs greater unity, greater concentration, at least in our understanding of it. The Constitution on the Liturgy expresses the central point of the Church year with absolute assurance; it is the paschal or Easter mystery of "the Passion, the Resurrection, and the glorification of the Lord Jesus."

Paschal Banquet IT is worth noting how

often the same unifying theme appears throughout the council's teaching on sacred worship. The Eucharist is 'a memorial of His Death and Resurrection . . . a paschal banquet." "The paschal mystery of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Christ" is "the fount from which all sacraments draw sacramentals and their power." "The work of Christ the Lord in redeeming mankind and giving perfect glory to God" was "achieved principally by the paschal mystery of His blessed Passion, Resurrection from the dead, Ascension, and glorious whereby, 'dying, He destroyed our death and, rising, He restored our life.'" If this is the central point in Christian worship, how does it fit into the so-called liturgical year? The superficial answer is the annual observance of Easter, with its special celebration of the Lord's passage from death to life. The council's answer is different: Sunday is the day of the Lord, the "original feast day," around which all else circles. "Every week, on the day which the Church has called the Lord's day, she keeps the memory of the Lord's Resurrection. . . By a tradition handed down from the Apostles which took its origin from the very day of Christ's Resurrection, the Church celebrates the paschal mystery every eight day . . . It should be proposed to the piety of the faithful and taught to them so that it may become in fact a day of joy and of freedom from work . . ."

day to celebrate the Resurrection, which is central to Christ's "saving work," was able to turn to the annual feast of Easter and the entire series of observances which revolve around it. These are described as the Church's attempt to unfold "the whole mystery of Christ, from the Incarnation and Birth until the Ascension, the day of Pentecost, and the expectation of blessed hope and of the coming of the Lord." In the course of each year, the of powers and merits Christ's deeds are "made present for all time;" Christians are able to lay hold upon them. In all this, the real need is to keep proportion and unity uppermost, to centre every facet of the Christian religion around the Death and Resurrection of Jesus. With this in mind, the bishops of the council approached the delicate question of the feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary and of the other saints. These have their necessary, significant place in the Church's year and in the consciousness of the faithful)—certainly in the case of Mary, as well as in the case of "saints who are truly of universal importhe throughout tance" Church. The Constitution on the Liturgy decrees that the saints' feasts must not predominate or take precedence. Again, it is a question of maintaining unity and proportion in the way in which the Christian Faith Is proclaimed and celebrated.

Holy Scripture mow it should be clear

why ,in another connection, the council insists upon a return to scriptural emphasis in worship and in teaching. "It is essential to promote that warm and liv ing love for Scripture to which the tradition of both Eastern and Western Rites gives testimony."

In the liturgy of the future—with the major revision of the liturgical books —"there is to be more reading from holy Scripture. and it is to be more varied and suitable." In the liturgy of the present, preaching "should draw its content mainly from scriptural and liturgical sources." Bible services —again in today's practice — should be encouraged. particularly to unfold the many but unified sides of the mystery of Christ celebrated each year. The Bible devotions are recommended "especially on the vigils of the more solemn feasts, on some weekdays in Advent and Lent, and on Sundays and feast days." One last point should be made. Some have thought that the council's liturgical renewal is a matter of revising legal regulations for Catholic worship. This is the same kind of error that Pope Pius XII rebuked as long ago as 1947. On the contrary, the council's purpose is far deeper. It intends to renew the Christian spirit and to centre observances, practice and understanding upon the mystery of Christ, in particular upon the paschal mysIT is no easy task to re- tery announced in Scripcover this full meaning ture, the Lord's dying, of Sunday—in practice, in rising from the dead, and the teaching of the clergy, ascending into glory. in the awareness of the people—but the council judges it an important, necessary effort.

C.W.L. MEETING WAS WELL ATTENDED The first executive and general meeting of the Catholic Women's League for 1964 was well attended. Mrs. Jolley welcomed the members a n d expressed good wishes for a successful year for League activities. It was pleasing to know that one of the resolutions, forwarded by West Australia, to the Bi-Annual Conference, namely, "That the Commonwealth Government be urged to extend payment of Child Endowment to the age of 18 years in cases where children are continuing their studies and are wholly dependent on their parents," had been recognised by the Government and was taking effect this year. The International Secretary, Mrs. R. Green, receives quite an amount of correspondence concerning matters. of much interest from other parts of the world

through the World Union Women's Catholic Organisations. As time does not permit the reading of these letters at the meetings, it was decided to form a study and discussion group. All members are welcome to join in the discussions, which will be held at the All Saints' Memorial Centre on the third Monday of each month, commencing February 17, at 1 p.m. Members a r e reminded that the League is anxious to make a success of the stall at the Redemptorist Monastery fete, and are urged to give as much help as possible by donating jams, pickles, cakes, fancy goods and any article suitable for the "White Elephant Stall." The office at the Centre is looking most attractive with its new curtains, and it was decided that to brighten the room further the cane chairs should be

The architect was Mr. Moran, of Hargrave, Moran, Haw kins and Associates. The buildings comprise a two-storey block of four classrooms, an administration block, ablution block and stationery storeroom. A short distance from the classrooms is a modern, compact rzsidence for the priests and living qUarters for the housekeeper. The buildings are of salmon - coloured clay bricks with intermittent panels of green rendered cement. The administration building has a striking feature wall of coloured stone. There was a total of 100 cubic yards of concrete used in the entire structure, two-thirds of which was required for the classroom block, the upper floor of which is supported by reinforced concrete columns. The classrooms, which feature revolving blackboards, have large areas of cupboard space. while the floors are covered with vinyl tiles. The large aluminium - framed windows face south, thus prevent any glare from the sun shining directly in through the windows. All steelwork throughout the buildings is un • painted. hut has been specially treated with a zinc. base rust repellant. FROM IRELAND residence The priests houses a small oratory for the private use of the two priests and one lay brother. Its complete set of altar furnishings has been

SPECIAL LIFT-OUT LITURGY SUPPLEMENT.

CONSTITUTION ON THE SACRED LITURGY Introduction

Chapter I

1. This sacred Council has several aims in view: it desires to impart an ever increasing vigor to the Christian life of the faithful; to adapt more suitably to the needs of our own times those institutions which are subject to change; to foster whatever can promote union among all who believe in Christ; to strengthen whatever can help to call the whole of mankind into the household of the Church. The Council therefore sees particularly cogent reasons for undertaking the reform and promotion of the liturgy.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES F OR THE RESTORATION A ND PROMOTION OF THE S ACRED LITURGY

2. For the liturgy, "through which the work of our redemption is accomlished," (1) most of all in the divine sacrifice of the eucharist, is the outstanding means whereby the faithful may express in their lives, and manifest to others, the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church. It is of the essence of the Church that she be both human and divine, visible and yet invisibly equipped, eager to act and yet intent on contemplation, present in this world and yet not at home in it; and she is all these things in such wise that in her the human is directed and subordinated to the divine, the visible likewise to the invisible, action to contemplation, and this present world to that city yet to come, which we seek (2). While the liturgy daily builds up those who are within into a holy temple of the Lord, into a dwelling place for God in the Spirit (3), to the mature measure of the fulness of Christ (4), at the same time it marvelously strengthens their power to preach Christ, and thus shows forth the Church to those who are outside as a sign lifted up among the nations (5) under which the scattered children of God may be gathered together (6), until there is one sheep fold and one shepherd (7). 3. Wherefore the sacred Council judges that the following principles concerning the promotion and reform of the liturgy should be called to mind, and that practical norms should be established. Among

these

principles

and norms there are some

which can and should be applied both to the Roman rite and also to all the other rites. The practical norms however. which follow, should be taken as applying only to the Roman rite, except for those which, in the very nature of things, affect other rites as well.

4. Lastly, in faithful obedience to tradition, the sacred Council declares that holy Mother Church holds all lawfully acknowledged rites too be of equal right and dignity; that she wishes to preserve them in the future and to foster them in every way. The Council also desires that, where necessary, the rites be revised carefully in the light of sound tradition, and that they be given new vigour to meet the circumstances and needs of modern times.

I. The Nature of the Sacred Liturgy and Its Importance in the Church's Life.

5. God who "wills that all men be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth" (1 Tim. 2:4), "who in many and various ways spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets" (Heb. 1:1), when the fulness of time had come sent His Son, the Word made flesh, anointed by the Holy Spirit, to preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the contrite of heart (8), to be a "bodily and spiritual medicine" (9), the Mediator between God and man (10). For His humanity, united with the person of the Word, was the instrument of our salvation. Therefore in Christ "the perfect achievement of our reconciliation came forth, and the fulness of divine worship was given to us" ( 11). The wonderful works of God among the people of the Old Testament were but a prelude to the work of Christ the Lord in redeeming mankind and giving perfect glory to God. He achieved His task principally by the paschal mystery of His blessed passion, resurrection from the dead, and glorious ascension, whereby "dying, He destroyed our death and, rising, He restored our life" 1 12). For it was from the side of Christ as He slept the sleep of death upon the cross that there came forth "the wondrous sacrament of the whole Church" (13). 6. Just as Christ was sent by the Father, so also He sent the apostle, filled with the Holy Spirit. This He did that, by preaching the gospel to every creature 1 14), they might proclaim that the Son of God, by His death and resurrection, had freed us from the power of Satan (15) and from death, and brought us into the kingdom of His Father. His purpose also was that they might accomplish the work of salvation which they had proclaimed, by means of sacsacraments, rifice and around which the entire liturgical life revolves. Thus by baptism men are plunged into the paschal mystery of Christ: they die with Him, are buried with Him, and rise with Him (161; they r eceive the spirit of adoption as sons "in which we cry: Abba, Father" (Rom. 8:15). and thus become true adorers whom the Father seeks ( 17). In like manner, as often as they eat the supper of the Lord they proclaim the death of the Lord until He comes (18). For that reason, on the very day of Pentecost, when the Church appeared before the world, those who received the word" of Peter "were baptised." And "they continued steadfastly in the teaching of the apostles and in of the communion the breaking of bread and in prayers . . . praising God and being in favour with all the people" (Acts 2:41-47). From that time onwards the Church has never failed to come together to celebrate the paschal mystery; reading those things 'which were in all the scriptures concerning him" (Luke 24:27), celebrating the eucharist in which "the victory and triumph of his death are again made present" (19), and at the same time giving thanks "to God for his unspeakable gift" (2 Cor 9: 15) in Christ Jesus. "in praise of his glory" (Eph 1: 12), through the power of the Holy Spirit 7. To accompli" a work, Christ r..esent in His (Th pecially in her liturgical

celebrations. He is present in the sacrifice of the Mass, not only in the person of His minister, "the same now offering, through the ministry of priests, who formerly offered Himself on the cross" (20), but especially under the eucharistic species. By His power He is present in the sacraments, so that when a man baptises it is really Christ Himself who baptises (21). He is present in His word, since it is He Himself who speaks When the holy scriptures are read in the Church. He is present, lastly, when the Church prays and sings, for He promised: "Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them" ( Matt. 18:20). Christ indeed always associates the Church with Himself in this great work wherein God is perfectly glorified and men are sanctified. The Church is His beloved Bride who calls to her Lord, and through Him offers worship to the Eternal Father. Rightly, then, the liturgy is considered as an exercise of the priestly office of Jesus Christ. In the liturgy the sanctification of man is signified by signs perceptible to the senses, and is effected in a way which corresponds with each of these signs; in the liturgy the whole public worship is performed by the Mystical Body of Jesus Christ, that is, by the Head and His members. From this it follows that every liturgical celebration, because it is an action of Christ the priest and of His Body which is the Church, -is a sacred action surpassing all others; no other action of the Church can equal its efficacy by the same title and to the same degree. 8. In the earthly liturgy we take part in a foretaste

Christ's faithful, though not of this world, are to be the light of the world and to glorify the Father before men. 10. Nevertheless the liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time it is the fount from which all her power flows. For the aim and object of apostolic works is that all who are made sons of God by faith and baptism should come together to praise God in the midst of His Church, to take part in the sacrifice, and to eat the Lord's supper. The liturgy in its turn moves the faithful, filled with "the paschal sacraments," to be "one in holiness" (26) ; it prays that 'they may hold fast in their lives to what they have grasped by their faith" (27); the renewal in the eucharist of the covenant between the Lord and man draws the faithful into the compelling love of Christ and sets them on fire. From the liturgy, therefore, and especially from the eucharist, as from a fount, grace is poured forth upon us; and the sanctification of men in Christ and the glorification of God, to which all other activities of the Church are directed as towards their end, is achieved in the most efficacious possible way. 11. But in order that the liturgy may be able to produce its full effects, it is necessary that the faithful come to it with proper dispositions, that their minds should be attuned to their voices, and that they should co-operate with divine grace lest they receive it in vain 1 28). Pastors of souls must therefore realise that, when the liturgy is celebrated, something more is required than the mere observation of the laws governing valid and licit celebration; it is their duty also to ensure that the

Active Participation.

14. Mother Church earnestly desires that all the faithful should be led to that full, conscious, and active participation in liturgical celebrations which is demanded by the very nature of the liturgy. Such participation by the Christian people as "a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a redeemed people" (1 Pet. 2:9; cf. 2:4-5), is their right and duty by reason of their baptism. In the restoration and promotion of the sacred liturgy, this full and active participation by all the people is the aim to be considered before all else; for it is the primary and indispensable source from which the faithful are to derive the true Christian spirit; and therefore pastors of souls must zealously strive to achieve it by means of the necessary instruction in all their pastoral work. Yet it would be futile to entertain any hopes of realising this unless the pastors themselves in the first place, become thoroughly imbued with the spirit and power of the liturgy, and undertake to give instruction about it. A prime need, therefore, is that attention be directed_ first of all, to the liturgical instruction of the clergy. Wherefore the sacred Council has decided to enact as follows: 15. Professors who are appointed to teach liturgy in seminaries, religious how..of study, and theological faculties must be properly trained for their work in institutes which specialise in this subject. 16. The study of sacred liturgy is to be -ranked among the compulsory and major courses in seminaries and religious houses of studies; in theological faculties it is to rank among the principal courses. It is to be taught under its theological. historical, spiritual, pastoral, and juridicial aspects Moreover, other professors. while striving to , ,xpoun:i the mystery of Christ ane the history of saly at i from the angle propr to each of their own subjer.must nevertheless do so in faithful take part fully a way which will clearly aware of what they are doing, actively engaged, in the bring out the connecticn between their subjects and the rite, and enriched by its liturgy, as also the uW. .. effects. which underlies all priestly 12.

The sacred does not exhaust the entire activity of the Church. Before men can come to the liturgy they must be called to faith and to conversion: "How then are they to call upon Him in whom they have not yet believed? But how are they to believe Him whom they have not heard? And how are they to hear if no one preaches? And how are men to preach unless they be sent?" (Rom. 10:14-15). Therefore the Church announces the good tidings of salvation to those who do not believe, so that all rien may know the true God ;,nd Jesus Christ whom He has sent, and may be converted from their ways, d g penTo believers ance (24). also the Church must ever preach faith and penance; she must prepare them for the sacraments, teach them to observe all that Chri.st has commanded (2`11. and Invite them to all the r -orks of charity, piety, and the apostolate For nil these works make it clear that

By so doing, pastors will be fulfilling one of the chief duties of a faithful dispenser of the mysteries of God; and in this matter they must lead their flock not only in word but also by example. 20. Transmissions of the sacred rites by radio and television shall be done with discretion and dignity, under the leadership and direction of a suitable person appointed for this office by the bishops. This is especially important when the service to be broadcast is the Mass. III. The Reform of the Sacred Liturgy.

21. In order that the Christian people may more certainly derive an abundance of graces from the sacred liturgy, holy Mother Church desires to undertake with great care a general restoration of the liturgy itself. For the liturgy is made up of immutable elements divinely instituted, and of elements subject to change. These not only may but ought to be changed with the passage of time if they have suffered from the intrusion of anything out of harmony with the inner nature of the liturgy or have become unsuited to it. In this restoration, both texts and rites should be drawn up so that they express more clearly the holy things which they signify; the Christian people, so far as possible, should be enabled to understand them with ease and to take part in them fully, actively, rtnd as befits a community. sacred Wherefore the Council establishes the following general norms:

General Norms

22. 1. Regulation of the sacred liturgy depends solely on the authority of the Church, that is, on the Apostolic See and, as laws may determine, on the bishop. 2. in virtue of power conceded by the law, the regulation of the liturgy within certain defined limits belongs also to various kinds of comterritorial petent bodies of bishops ligitimately established. - 3. Therefore no person, even if he be a priest, may add, remove, or change anything in the liturgy on his own authority. *2.3. That sound tradition may be retained, and yet the way remain open to legitimate progress, a careful investigation is always to be made into each part of the liturgy which is to be revised. This investigation should be theological, historical, and pastoral.

THE

Page Ten As far as possible, notable differences between the rites used in adjacent regions must be carefully avoided. 24. Sacred scripture is of the greatest importance in the celebration of the liturgy. For it is from scripture that lessons are read and explained in the homily, and psalms are sung; the prayers, collects, and liturgical songs are scriptural in their inspiration, and it is from the scriptures that actions and signs derive their meaning. Thus to achieve the restoration, progress, and adaptation of the sacred liturgy, it is essential to promote that warm and living love for scripture to which the venerable tradition of both eastern and western rites gives testimony. 25. The liturgical books are to be revised as soon as possible, experts are to be employed on the task, and bishops are to be consulted, from various parts of the world.

B ) Norms Dawn from the Hierarchic and Communal Nature of the Liturgy 26. Liturgical services are not private functions, but are celebrations of the Church, which is the // sacrament of unity," holy namely, the people united and ordered under their bishops (33). Therefore liturgical services pertain to the whole body of the Church; they manifest it and have effects upon it; but they concern the individual members of the Church in different ways, according to their differing rank, office, and actual participation. 27. It is to be stressed that whenever rites, according to their specific nature, make provision for communal celebrations involving the presence and active participation of the faithful, this way of celebrating them is to be preferred, so far as possible, to a celebration that is individual and quasiprivate. This applies with especial force to the celebration of Mass and the administration of the sacraments, even though every Mass has of itself a public and social nature. 28. In liturgical celebrations each person, minister or layman who has an office to perform, should do all of, but only, those parts which pertain to his office by the nature of the rite and the principles of liturgy. 29. Servers, lectors, commentators, and members of the choir also exercise a genuine liturgical function. They ought, therefore, to discharge their office with the sincere piety and decorum demanded by so exalted a ministry and rightly expected of them by God's people. Consequently they must all be deeply imbued with the spirit of the liturgy, each in his own measure, and they must be trained to perform their functions in a correct and orderly manner. 30. To promote active participation, the people should be encouraged to take part by means of -acclamations. rfesponses, psalmody, antiphons, and songs, as well as by actions, gestures, and bodily attitudes. And at the proper times all should observe a reverent silence. 31. The revision of the liturgical books must carefully attend to the provision of rubrics also for the people's parts. 32. The liturgy makes distinctions between persons according to their liturgical function and sacred Orders, and there are liturgical laws providing for due honours to be given to civil authorities. Apart from these instances, no special honours are to be paid in the liturgy to any private persons or classes of persons, whether in the cere-

monies or by external display. C ) Norms Based upon the Didactic and Pastoral Nature of the Liturgy

Chapter II THE MOST SACRED M YSTERY OF THE EUCHARIST

47. At the Last Supper, on the night when He was betrayed, our Saviour instituted the eucharistic sacrifice of His Body and Blood. He did this in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the Cross throughout the centuries until He should come again, and so to entrust to His beloved spouse, the Church, a memorial of His death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity (36), a paschal banquet in 42. But because it is imwhich Christ is eaten, the possible for the bishop al- mind is filled with grace, ways and everywhere to and a pledge of future glory preside over the whole flock is given to us (37). 48.

Authority

for all mankind, and for the salvation of the entire world ( 39). 54. In Masses which are c lebrated with the people, a suitable place may be allotted to their mother tongue. This is to apply in the first place to the readings and "the common prayer," but also, as local conditions may warrant, to those parts which pertain to the people, according to the norm laid down in Art. 36 of this Constitution. Nevertheless steps should be taken so that the faithful may also be able to say or to sing together in Latin those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them. And wherever a more extended use of the mother tongue within the Mass appears desirable, the regulation laid down in Art. 40 of this Constitutioon is to be observed. 55. That more perfect form of participation in the Mass whereby the faithful, after the priest's communion, received the Lord's body from the same sacrifice, is strongly commended. The dogmatic principles which were laid down by the Council of Trent remaining intact (40), communion under both kinds may be granted when the bishops think fit, not only to clerics and religious, but also to the laity, in cases to be determined by the Apostolic See, as, for instance, to the newly ordained in the Mass of their sacred ordination, to the newly professed in the Mass of their religious profession, and to the newly baptised in the Mass which follows their baptism. 56. The two parts which, in a certain sense, go to make up the Mass, namely, the liturgy of the word and the eucharistic liturgy, are so closely connected with each other that they form but one single act of worship. Accordingly this sacred Synod strongly urges pastors of souls that, when instructing the faithful, they insistently teach them to take their part in the entire Mass, especially on Sundays and feasts of obligation. Concelebration, 57. *1. whereby the unity of the priesthood is appropriately manifested, has remained in use to this day in the Church both in the east and in the west. For this reason it has seemed good to the Council to extend permission for concelebration to the following cases: 1. a) on the Thursday of the Lord's Supper, not only at the Mass of the Chrism, but also at the evening Mass; b) at Mass during councils, bishops' conferences, and synods; c) at the Mass for the blessing of an abbot. 2. Also, with permission of the ordinary, to whom it belongs to decide whether concelebration is opportune: conventual Mass, a) at and at the principal Mass in churches when the needs of the faithful do not require that all the priests available should celebrate individually; b) at Masses celebrated at any kind of priests' meetings, whether the priests be secular clergy or religious. *2. 1. The regulation, however of the discipline of concelebration in the diocese pertains to the bishop. 2. Nevertheless, each priest shall always retain his right to celebrate Mass individually, though not at the same time in the same church as a concelebrated Mass, nor on Thursday of the Lord's Supper. 58. A new rite for concelebration is to be drawn up and inserted into the Pontifical and into the Roman Missal.

of Christ, and, finally, to give worship to God; because they are signs they also instruct. They not only presuppose faith, but by words and objects they also nourish, strengthen, and express it; that is why they are called "sacraments of faith." They do indeed impart grace, but, in addition, the very act of celebrating them most effectively disposes the faithful to receive this grace in a fruitful manner, to worship God duly, and to practice charity. It is therefore of the highest importance that the f aithful should easily understand the sacramental signs, and should frequent with great eagerness those sacraments which were instituted to nourish the Christian life. 60. Holy Mother Church has, moreover, instituted are There sacramentals. sacred signs which bear a resemblance to the sacraments: they signify effects, particularly of a spiritual kind, which are obtained through the Church's intercession. By them men are disposed to receive the chief effect of the sacraments, and various occasions in life are rendered holy. 61. Thus, for well-disposed members of the faithful, the liturgy of the sacraments and sacramentals sanctifies almost every event in their lives; they are given access to the stream of divine grace which flows from the paschal mystery of the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ, the fount from which all sacraments and draw sacramentals their power. There is hardly any proper use of material things which cannot thus be directed toward the sanctification of men and the praise of God. 62. With the passage of time, however, there have crept into the rites of the sacraments and sacramentals certain features which have rendered their nature and purpose far from clear to the people of today; hence some changes have become necessary to adapt them to the needs of our own times. For this reason the sacred Council decrees as follows concerning their revision.

from these, when capable of being adapted to Christian ritual, may be admitted along with those already found in Christian tradition, according to the norm laid down in Art. 37-40 of this Constitution. 66. Both of the rites for the baptism of adults are to be revised: not only the simpler rite, but also the more solemn one, which must take into account the restored catechumenate. A special Mass "for the conferring of baptism" is to be inserted into the Roman Missal. 67. The rite for the baptism of infants is to be reshould be vised, and it adapted to the circumstance that those to be baptised The are, in fact, infants. roles of parents and godparents, and also their duties, should be brought out more clearly in the rite itself. 68. The baptismal rite should contain variants, to be used at the discretion of the local ordinary, for occasions when a ,very large number are to be baptised together. Moreover, a shorter rite is to be drawn up, especially for mission lands, to be used by catechists, but also by the faithful in general when there is danger of death, and neither priest nor deacon is available. 69. In place of the rite called the "Order of supplying what was omitted. in the baptism of an infant," a new rite is to be drawn up. This should manifest more fittingly and clearly that the infant, baptised by the short rite, has already been received into the Church. And a new rite is to be drawn up for converts who have already been validly baptised; it should indicate that they are now admitted to communion with the Church.

may be done by all the bishops present. 77. The marriage rite now found in the Roman Ritual is to be revised and enriched in such a way that the grace of the sacrament is more clearly signified and the duties of the. spouses are taught. "If any regions are wont to use other praiseworthy customs and ceremonies when celebrating the sacrament of matrimony, the sacred Synod earnestly desires that these by all means be retained" (41). Moreover the competent territorial ecclesiastical authority mentioned in Art. 22, *2, of this Constitution is free to draw up its own rite suited to the usages of place and people, according to the provision of Art. 63. But the rite must alway conform to the law that the priest assisting at the marriage must ask for and obtain the consent of the contracting parties. 78. Matrimony is normally to be celebrated within the Mass, after the reading of the gospel and the homily, and before "the prayer of the faithful." The prayer for the bride, duly amended to remind both spouses of their equal obligation to remain faithful to each other, may be said in the mother tongue. But if the sacrament of celebrated is matrimony apart from Mass, the epistle and gospel from the nuptial Mass are to be read at the beginning of the rite, and the blessing should always be given to the spouses. 79. The sacramentals are to undergo a revision which takes into account the primary principle of enabling the faithful to participate intelligently, actively, and easily; the circumstances of our own days must also be

FRIENDS;

So, too, the Real Presesnce of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament may be mysterious, but that does not prevent Catholics from realising what they are doing when they approach the altar to receive Our Lord in Holy Communion.

BAULKING AT MYSTERIES Q.: When I ask my Catholic friends about things, I am told not to probe mysteries. R.: Christian faith is the will to accept what Christ taught because He taught it. It does not consist in an ability to understand fully all that He taught. Much that He taught is mysterious, and is bound to remain mysterious. But He never t aught anything that is meaningless. We can have some understanding of revealed truth, even though I know that to say you not an adequate underlack humility means that standing of it; and what we you are proud; and that to can understand is enough say that you lack docility for all practical purposes. means that you set great The doctrines of the Tristore on being independent and and self-sufficient. The diag- nity, the Incarnation the redemptive works of nosis may be unpleasant, Christ on the cross may be - mysterious, yet Catholics but that's how things are.

R.: You mean you would like to have the definite faith and certainty of it which you envy in them. But you are at fault in your self-analysis. For despite what you say, you are not prepared to give anything to be like them. There is a price to be paid which you are not willing to pay. You have neither the humility nor the docility to accept anything as true, even though God Himself reveals it to be true, unless it be fully explained to your own satisfaction.

WHY FORBID INQUIRY? Q.: Why should I be told not to probe mysteries? R.: There is nothing wrong with thinking over revealed mysteries and trying to gain as much understanding of them as is possible to the human mind. But not even the greatest of all theologians can attain to a full comprehension of them and must accept them by an act of faith based on the conviction that God knows all truth and is incapable of revealing what is false. There is a passage in the Old Testament which Monsignor Knox translates as follows: "Seek not to know what is far above thee; search not beyond thy range; let thy mind ever dwell on the duty God has given thee to do . . . leave off, then, thy much questioning about such things as little concern thee . . . more is granted to thy view than lies within human ken. By such fancies many have been led astray and their thoughts chained in folly" ( Ecclesiasticus, 3:22-26).

Proofs of God's Existance

ST. THOMAS AQUINAS Q.: St. Thomas Aquinas deals with this problem in his "Summa Theologica." part I. question 2. article 2. R.: There he asks whether it is possible to prove that God exists, and his answer is in the affirmative. In the following article he explains his famous "five ways" in which, from the limitations in the very being of all objects within the range of sense-experience, reason can and should conclude to the reality of an Unlimited Being whom all men speak of as God, and who is responsible for the existence of t his ‘.'.-hole visible universe. Volumes have been writte.1 cn roong the actual significance of these arguments of St. Thomas, and there are Catholic thinkers who hold that they are not strictly logical proofs leading to a knowledge of somethin of which we had no inkling beforehand, but that they are the developed expression of a rational insight or judgment of which all men are capable by their natural use of their intelligence. even though 0)struse p hilo sophical reflections are quite beyond th,mn.

RECORDINGS NOT ISSUED PREVIOUSLY * THE INIMITABLE SIR THOMAS. H.M.V. 57/6. Most miscellanies grouped around an artist recently deceased are usually selections from old recordings hurriedly re-dubbed so as to cash in on any news value. This disc is nothing like that; it is true that they are old recordings because, unhappily, it is now some time since Beecham's great genius has gone from us, but none of the recordings has been issued before. One is inclined to wonder why Sir Thomas withheld his final approval because in performance a n d recording alike, almost all the material is excellent. Even Delius' "Summer Evening" is a different recording from the one pre• viously issued; both are identical arrangements by

Dvorak being really well known. If you want the Sibelius and Delius, you won't complain of the Beecham least of all in the fillups. * BACH: Organ Works. Columbia, 57/6. The organist is Edouard Commette, the organ is that of Lyons Cathedral and the works consist of two Preludes and Fugues (B minor, BWV 544; and G minor, BWV 535) and two Toccatas and Fugues (D minor, BWV 538; and C Major, BWV 566). Organ music is a subject on which I hesitate to give an opinion, being very ignorant; to which readers may well retort—only organ music? However, to my untrianed ear, the performances seemed pretty good; certainly the recording is.

Beecham himself and both performances are by the Royal Philharmonic. This, Beecham's own orchestra, plays everything on this disc except Fauvre's Pavane which is by the French National Radio Orchestra. Most of the first side is occupied by Sibelius' tone poem "Tapiola." The other works are the "Irmelin" Preludue by Delius, No. 2 of the Opus, 59 Legends by Dvorak, and the Symphonic Dance in A by Grieg.

This is by the New York Philharmonic under Leonard Bernstein, who is also the narrator. As might be expected, approach is Bernstein's new, cutting down a good deal of the traditional narration. It was struck by the remarkable clarity of the instrumental detail both in recording and in the vivid playing. It would certainly be high on any competitive list. The "Nutcracker" Suite is the reduced Opus 71a—the entire ballet being Opus 71; this latter occupies two entire records whereas the Suite is merely seven numbers with a miniature overture. Only one number (the March) is missing here. Performance and recording are both very good.

Astounding Technical Skill

A Restrained "La Boheme" WITH THE EXCEPTION OF CATHERINE RYAN ( MUSETTA ), THE CAST OF "LA BOHEME" MIGHT HAVE BELONGED TO A GOURMET FRATERNITY. No one would deny that operas are essentially musicdramas and any drama needs appropriate casting. John Young's production of this Puccini opera was both sensible and to some extent predictable. In a scaled-down composite set he gave us a very restrained "Boheme" — and certainly anything else on the small Playhouse stage would have been grotesque. However, denied the flourish of the grand stage, the opera must necessarily assume a more realistic air in the more intimate setting. Hence the need for an unhealthy looking Mimi and the like, with more emphasis on the acting. One feels that this company would be more at home in Newtown than in Pier Street. As Mimi and Rudolph, Marie Sutherland and Gino Zancanaro never quite make it. Mr. Zancanaro has a fine voice and his rendering of "You Tiny Hand Is Frozen" was near perfect, but his performance was full of cliches of gesture and movement and in all rather shallow. I'm not sure who was the more consumptive — Mimi or Marie Sutherland.. They were both breathing very heavily. Thankfully, Miss Sutherland handled the death scene with taste and sensitivity. Her Mimi as a result was a pathetic and touching performance in spite of her robust appearance. In Catherine Ryan we had a Musetta of beguiling and vivacious charm. Miss Ryan has the gift of great warmth as was evidenced in the final act. Her waltz song from Act II was a highlight. As Marcell, Russell Cooper gave an important per-

formance. He had clash, passion and humour, plus an attractive voice. Ian Norton's bass gave the philosopher a beautiful resonance and besides Mr. Norton is a fine actor and I suspect a fine comic. His farewell to his cloak was the most moving piece of acting to be seen for a long time. The production is notable for some fine ensemble singing, an unobtrusive local chorus and some good playing by the W.A. Symphony Orchestra. This season surely illustrates the need for air conditioning the larger theatres so as to give Perth some grand opera in the grand manner after many years of c onfinement.—D.T.

Not To Be Missed THE PROGRAMME on "Shakespeare's England," presented in the Basil Kirke Studio was arguably the best live show in the Festival. It is in two parts—Part "The Court," was presented last Sunday, and Part "Town and Country," will be on Sunday, February 16. Don't miss it—it's free, but be early. The wit, sophistication and beauty of 17-century music and literature make us moderns seem very dull dogs indeed. Any comparisons amonc. the performers would be in vidious, but the two madri gals were the best music performed by all five sin gers. Edgar Metcalfe pointed wit and pathos of verse and prose so that it became merely the voice of the original writer—interpretation at its best. The spinet playing of Kathleen Callaway deserved the highest praise.—H.G.T.

It was apparent last Wednesday that he was having some trouble—possibly he was not well, but, just before the interval and also once or twice in the second half, the musical ideas lost their form to a certain degree through hesitancy. Those works such as the Barcarola and Danza by

Tansman and a Sonatina by Torroba which had been specially composed for the guitar seemed most successful. Transpositions from the harpsichord gave us a delightful Gavotte by the older Scarlatti and a Chaconne by Couperin and this kind of t ransfer retained a good deal of the original character. The most curious of t ranspositions was a minuet from a string quartet in which the guitar coped moro or less with all four voices. A very enjoyable evening.

DEAR BOYS AND GIRLS, Last week I was so taken up with the thought of you going back to school that I completely forgot that last Wednesday was the beginning of Lent. I know that the season of penance, as Lent is often called, does not affect you under Church A law, because you are not bound to fast. sensible attitude of the Church's law because young bodies need the full daily nourishment to help them grow and stay healthy. However, there has always been a very good custom which encourages those under 21 to do some form of penance during this special season. Lots of boys and girls make a resolution not to eat lollies during Lent, or not to go to the pictures. Some pleasant things that we are allowed to do or have and we freely give them up in a spirit of penance, to train our minds and our bodies to resist things that could be attractive and yet are not permitted. It trains us to say no. Don't always be negative, not doing things, but often do things, like going to Mass some week mornings, or making a special visit to Jesus, or doing some kind work for somebody. PAUL WILKES wrote of his holidays, glad you enjoyed them, Paul, and congratulations on passing your Junior Swimming. Have recorded your change of school. JO ANNE O'DEA wrote of her change of address and school for herself and brother Peter. ANN KEHOE says that she finally got around to joining JR's and told of her two weeks at Palm Beach. LINLEY GREEN told of her birthday—it is good to have your birthday during school holidays, Linley. MEREDITH McGILLIVRAY wrote—I will try to find you a pen-friend in a different country, Meredith. ALEC BROWN wrote a long letter about his family's trip to Walpole. The description and the brochure sounded very inviting, Alec. I almost wished myself down there. That haul of fish must have been something worthwhile.
