The following day the Pontiff was forced to cancel an appearance at a public hall where discussions on religious differences were being held by representatives of the nonCatholic Christian communities of India, due to a heavy morning schedule at the house of the Cardinal. The Pope received civil authorities and about 75 bishops, priests and lay readers from Catholic communities in India. He urged the Indian Catholic leaders to say Mass in the local languages. Crowds waiting outside showed that the wild welcome Bombay had given the Pope was not abating. Said Cardinal Gracias: 'I have spent forty years here in Bombay and I have never seen anything like it.

York World's Fair next summer. The gift of the tiara was disclosed here by Francis Cardinal Spellman of New York at a formal clergy luncheon for newly consecrated Auxiliary Bishop George H. Guilfoyle of New York. The tiara was on the dais, enclosed in a wooden box covered with white leather. READ LETTER Cardinal Spellman read a letter he had written in Rome thanking the Pope for the tiara which the Pontiff had dramatically put on the altar in St. Peter's Basilica in the presence of more than a thousand Fathers of the Second Vatican Council on November 13. "I am deeply grateful to Your - Holiness for the precious gift of your tiara which I humbly accept as a tribute to the charity of Americans and as evidence of the desire of assisting Your Holiness in helping the poor of the world, said Cardinal Spellman's handwritten note. "This tiara will be treasured as an object of veneration and a symbol of the merciful heart of Your Holiness,- wrote Cardinal Spellman. The tiara was a gift to t he Pontiff from the people of Milan where he was archbishop before being elected Pope. When the Pontiff relinquished the tiara, the Vatican announcement noted the references to hunger and misery in the world at the Vatican Council and said Pope Paul wished to give new witness to charity for the needy.

BISHOP FULTON J. SHEEN discusses F one asks a young woman who was a college graduate to tell the year in which Shakespeare was born, or the forces that were engaged in the Battle of Waterloo, or who was Socrates, she could answer. But if she is asked what to do when a husband snaps back an answer, or slams a door, she has no ready response. MARRIAGE IS ABOUT THE ONLY LIFELONG PROFESSION IN WHICH THERE IS NO PREPARATION OR NOVITIATE.
Y ing to find happiness, and they really
OUNG people say that they are marry-
believe that happiness is identified with possessing a partner, just as one might enjoy possessing a beautiful car, or a country house. How pleased one is with a new car! But after six months one does not notice its tail lights, ash trays, all of which were so important the day when it was purchased.
POSSESSING ANOTHER To marry someone with the idea of possessing him or her, is to rob that person of the precious endowment of liberty. If that other person is "mine," like a cocktail then he or she can never make a present of himself or herself. What I possess I can longer receive as a gift. You cannot receive a gift of ten dollars if you already have it in your pocket and you own it. The whole meaning of the union breaks down. The very word "conjugal" means "with a yoke"— "con jugum." It is not a dead yoke, but a living relationship and an adventure in constant development. There is such a thing as "wave length" in which there is a kind of an accord reached between t wo persons. This wave length accord is not just a few minutes a day, but for life. A t first the tempests of sexual encounter, its stormy concentrations, create the illusion of harmony. But
later on, there is a realisation that the other person is never completely possessed. The basi creason is— the other person belongs to God. This ultimate region is inaccessible.
AS Helmut Thielicke put it: "Because of the other person's 'alien dignity,' he always retains an ultimate remainder of his own being, whichI must respect even in the most intimate and loving encounters as something that is withheld from me and which I dare not lay hands on even in the extremes of ecstasy. The "hang-over" of all functional love which ignores the dignity of the person is a reminder that flaming torches are not put into hands to burn a city, but to illumine it. Husbands and wives are not torch-throwers to leave charred ruins, but protectors of great possessions whose title rests in the hand of God. This hunger and thirst for possession and being possessed ultimately reaches a stage where there is a feeling of being alone together. One realises the impossibility of uniting two beings. There is a barrier to total possession. Even after the thrill of the capture, there is the deep sense of not having the prey.

WHEN CARDINAL GILROY ADDRESSED THE COUNCIL
ARDINAL GILROY HAD AUSTRALIAN PASTORAL C EXIGIENCIES IN MIND WHEN HE ADDRESED THE COUNCIL R EGARDING MATRIMONY. While praising the marriage draft, he made several proposals. He suggested that the impediment of disparity of worship (marriage between baptised and unbaptised persons) should not invalidate a marriage but only make it unlawful. This would always presuppose that such a union
involves no danger of perversion from the faith for the Catholic party in which case the marriage would be forbidden by divine law itself. Cardinal Gilroy further suggested that the Council should insist more strongly than the schema in dissuading Catholics from contracting mixed marriage, but in such a way that, barring t he danger of perversion f rom the faith, these marriages would not be absolutely forbidden. As far as the promises regarding the baptism and education of children are concerned, the Cardinal proposed that, although they

need not necessarily be given in writing, nevertheless there should be external evidence of such promises. For this purpose, he proposed that the promises be made verbally before the parish priest.
THE Cardinal proposed that, provided a marriage has taken place in due conformity to civil law and the interested parties can produce a legal document testifying to the marriage, the Church should recognise this marriage as being valid, though unlawful, even for Catholics. The Cardinal said that what he had particularly in mind was that if this suggestion was accepted fewer people would be living in the proximate occasion of sin and the canonical effects of the rrip i•riage of Catholics out side the Church would not fall on their children. Those who transgressed the laws of the Church re garding marriage should not be admitted to the sacra ments until they have taken steps to rectify their situation. In the case of mixed marriages, continued Cardinal Gilroy, Nuptial Mass should not be prescribed as the schema suggests but could be permitted by the bishop. It would be helpful, he added, to formulate a new definition of the impediment of mixed religion so as to make it applicable to marriage with a non-baptised person also. Cardinal Gilroy concluded: "I humbly suggest that what Ihave proposed makes for the stability and holiness of marriage," and proposed that the whole matter of mixed marriages should be discussed in the fourth Council session after the Council Fathers have had time to give it full deliberation. However, the Pope has set up an international commission of bishops and theologians to consider this question and he is likely to publish a motu proprio on it before the fourth session. Bishops have been invited to submit comments on the mixed marriage question by writing; the pontifical commission has been gathering statistics and facts on it for almost a year. The provisions of the Pope's motu proprio would be incorporated in the revised code of canon law to be prepared by a commission which includes Cardinal Gilroy.
THE
RECORD
ted by the Council did not deal directly with marriage as a sacrament, but concentrated on suggestions for a reform of canon law on marriage. It proposed that the Counregarding provisions cil Ecumenism should be a guide for future legislation on the impediments of mixed religion and disparity of worship. Cardinal Gilroy suggested a number of amendments to the draft, but Archbishop Heenan welcomed the proposals with few reservations: "The proposals for the future celebrations of mixed marriages are most welcome. Too often the ceremonies for such marriages are so stripped of solemnity and joy as to seem more like a funeral than a wedding. No blessing of the ring, no candles or flowers, and—what makes the bride burst into tears—no organ. "If the Church grants a dispensation, she should do so graciously, magnanimously and in an open-handed way. Let the Church show herself a real Mother not only for the Catholic but for the non-Catholic as well. If cannot the non-Catholic with a good conscience promise that the children will be brought up as Catholics, there should be no attempt at coercion. "It is sufficient for him not to object to the promise being made by the Catholic party. This promise should
be made without any conditioning clause." The question of mixed marriage inevitably interested the bishops of Protestant-Catholic countries more than others. Bishop Fearns, Auxiliary Bishop of New York ,speaking for Cardinal Spellman and 100 American bishops, said: "We bishops should have more time to prepare our pastors for such a drastic modification of the Church's law on marriage. It would be well to c onvoke a meeting of pastors, especially of those from pluratistic c oming c ountries, to discuss the problems involved."
A RCHBISHOP °.• CONWAY of Armagh, Ireland, completed the AustralianEnglish-U.S.A.-Irish contribution to the debate by saying that the Council Fathers had only had a few hours to discuss this matter (of canonical form and the mixed marriage promises) and were being asked to hastily send it on for ultimate decision. No parliament in the world would act so hastily, he claimed, to change a serious and The t raditional law. matter is too important to be disposed of in just a few hours of discussion, concluded t h e Archbishop of Armagh.
Cardinal Doepfner, of Munich, would have replied that the question of mixed marriages is so urgent that it cannot await the revision of Canon Law. He made these points in his speech and proposed that the Council should ask the Holy Father to take steps immediately to implement the legislation proposed in the schema. Pope Paul is expected to act shortly on the questions treated in the schema, but after speeches from the English - speaking Council Fathers he is likely to leave wide discretionary powers with the bishops, who must Judge the pastoral consequences in various circumstances of changes in marriage legislation. ,,

CONCELEBRATION OF MASS POINTS To REAL NATURE OF THE CHURCH Vatican City: When Pope Paul VI and more than 20 bishops concelebrated the opening Mass of the Second Vatican Council's third session, two points were made clear. The Pope and all the other bishops together make up a body, called a "college," with a common responsibility to serve, teach and make holy the universal Church. And the liturgical reform decreed in December, 1963. by the Council is well under way. According to the 1963 Constitution on the Liturgy, the Church's real nature is perfectly manifested when the whole body assembles at the altar—the bishop surrounded by his priests, ministers and all the faithful taking part in the celebration of the Eucharist. On the occasion of the first Mass of the Council's third session on September 14, it was the chief bishop, the Pope, surrounded by other bishops who make up the apostolic College, by the priests and other members of the clergy, and by a huge crowd of the faithful all taking their full part. This form of Mass, with a chief celebrant presiding and with other concelebrating bishops (or priests), is a concrete symbol of what the Ecumenical Council will proclaim in its doctrinal pronouncement on the Church Central to this is the Council's teaching on the "collegiality" of bishops—all the bishops as a body or college succeed the band of Apostles, as the chief one among them, the Pope, succeeds the chief Apostle, Peter. This doctrine, agreed upon by four-fifths of the bishops at the 1963 session, strongly supported by Pope Paul in his opening address, and voted for overwhelmingly by Council Fathers at the meetings of September 22 and 23, is reflected on the diocesan level in the collaboration of priests with the bishop, on the parish level in the collaboration of assistant priests with the pastor and, finally, in the common action of all the Church's members, lay and clerical. In the Mass concelebrated in St. Peter's Basilica the community nature of the Church was a little obscured by the almost inevitable grandeur of the occasion. The altar was practically hidden from view by the concelebrating bishops gathered around it, there was a multiplicity of prayers said in common by the concelebrants. the reception of Communion and other rites were complex in appearance, and only a handful of the laity received Communion.
UNITY SIGN But none of this can obscure the powerful teaching effect of concelebration, showing the order of bishops united to the priests and other clergy, united to all the people, in the Church's life of prayer and work. It was a sign of the unity of the priesthood, but above all a sign of the unity of the Church. All attention was focused on the celebration of the "same Eucharist, the single prayer, at one altar." Clergy and faithful sang the sacred chants and refrains to psalms. The role of the chief celebrant, in this case Pope Paul, and of the other celebrants, in this case other bishops, was rfiade clear—to preside over and serve the whole Church. Last January, the Pope set up a new commission to revise the Church's liturgy in accordance with the Council's commands. In the spring, the commission announced that a new rite of concelebration was being prepared. Next Holy Thursday it should become a common parish experience. And, wherever there is an abundance of priests, the practice of celebrating Masses individually and privately should gradually give way to the single community Mass concelebrated as a sign of unity. The Mass in St. Peter's also gave indications of r evisions which, when officially decreed, will affect all Masses celebrated publicly, not merely concelebrations. These include, for example, the service of God's word ( from the Epistle through the Creed) with the celebrating priest seated away from the altar and listening to the readings along with the people; the few invocations of a litany after the Creed; the "prayer of the people" for the needs of the Church and of all mankind; the simple ending of Mass with the dismissal and blessing. If there had been any doubt about liturgical—and other —renewal in the Church, it was dispelled by the c oncelebrated Mass. Concrete reforms are under way. Their purpose is a fuller, sounder proclamation of doctrine and the spiritual renewal of the Church's members.

LONDON: The Catholic Church in England and Wales is losing substantial sums of money every year because Catholics fail to cooperate in an income tax for scheme" "covenant weekly donations to their parish churches. A survey by the Catholic Herald newspaper during the past year indicated this is largely due to fear of the tax man, ignorance of procedure and a lack of trained lay helpers in parishes. COVENANT Under the scheme, parishioners promise to pay a fixed sum to the church each week. If they fill in an official government form promising to pay — or "covenant' — a certain sum to the church each year for seven years, the government will refund income tax already paid on it to the church. Getting Catholics to sign covenant forms involves door-to-door canvassing and explanations of an involved scheme, which can only be done by trained laity. LOSS In the Nottingham diocese alone it is estimated that £A31,500 a year is being lost through lack of covenanting. Some parishes in London lose around £A1,350 a year. A big drive is now on to explain the plan and to encourage more Catholics to support a scheme which is helping to meet the financial burden of Catholic education. Where the plan operates, except on a few special occasions, no other collections are made for special causes, so that all the collection money goes directly to the parish. From this the pastor gives any donations he feels justified to special appeals.

"COMMUNIONZTIC REVOLUTION": HOW BISHOP DESCRIBES VATICAN COUNCIL II
cil is the practical realisation that we are all living cells in the Mystical Body of Christ. "The bishops from comfortable dioceses have become uncomfortable at the sight of their impoverished brethren from Latin America, Africa and Asia. The tinstudious bishops have become conscious that they have missed much of their episcopal vocation in counting and administration. On the other hand, the experts in the Council have realised haw far removed they sometimes were from the dust of human lives. "It really is like a new Pentecost. Each was going his own way. Now they have, as the Acts of the Apostles state, 'one mind and one heart.'"
Rome: Pope John did what the Risen Lord did. The Church has been behind closed doors for centuries. He said: 'Open the doors! There is a world waiting for salvation. Go into it!" The Lord is again appearing behind the closed doors of the Council as we debate and discuss, and there is no stepping back as we hear Him say, in the words of the Apocalypse: 'I have set before you an open door, and let no man close it." In these words Auxiliary Bishop Fulton J. Sheen, of New York, who is director in the United States of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, summed up his impressions at the end of the third Council session. Bishop Sheen's recent speech in the Council debate on the missions met with a wide echo. He expanded on his ideas in an interview given to this correspondent. What will come of the Council, he was asked. "This Council," he replied. "is the battleground of what

"We must understand that there can be not only a capitalism of money, but also of ideas. The communion-istic revolution now is dividing the intellectual wealth and distributing it to the Church all over the world." He was asked: Will not such an ideological division cause unrest in the Church?

"The doors have been opened wide, much too wide to be closed again."
"As I see it, the equilibrium which is coming out of this Council, as it builds up its doctrine and practice, is something wonderful to behold." Which issue stands out amnog those that came up during the third Council session, Bishop Sheen was asked. "I think," he said, "the one note that rang out in the Council was that the Church is to be the Church of the poor.

Jerusalem, Jordon: Visitors to the Holy Land have always viewed with awe and curiosity the city of our Lord. The historic pilgrimage there of Pope Paul VI in January, 1964, has provided added stimulus to the public search for information about the holy shrines. Today Jerusalem is much larger than it was during, the lifetime of Christ. Politically it is divided—Jerusalem of Israel to the west and Jerusalem of Jordan to the east. The famed Mount of Olives is studded with many shrines, among them Viri Galilaei (Men of Galilee), Shrine of the Ascension, and the Carmelite precinct of the Pater Noster (Our Father). On the western slope stand three large structures — the Chapel of Dominus Flevit, the Russian Church of St. Catherine, and the Basilica of the Agony in the Garden of Gethsemani at the foot of the slope.

fact that Jesus, during his triumphal entry into Jerusalem, wept over the city. No one knows the exact spot where Christ wept, for the tradition is not very clear. That He did weep over the city is known from the Gospel (Luke 19, 41-44). From Christian documents we know that pilgrims believe that Christ wept on the western slope of the Mount of Olives. Two 16th century documents state that the Turks built an "oratory" or "mosque" at the place where Christ wept. This mosque was called elMansuriyeh (The Triumphant), the ruins of which can be seen today just outside the Franciscan property.

PRE-HISTORY The excavations at Dominus Flevit by the Franciscans in the years 1953 to 1955 are important for what they show on the pre-history of Jerusalem. The final reports are now being published by the Franciscan Biblical Institute here. One volume covers the necropolis of the Roman period (63 B.C. to 333 A.D.), another deals with the Jebusite burial place (3000-1200 B.C.) and a third report, the remains of a Byzantine monastery and chapel with mosaics. Pottery found in the tombs aided the archaeologists in dating the Jebusite burial place as in the Middle and

IN STONE The relics in the Roman necropolis were found in the oven-shaped tombs and chamber-type tombs cut into the rock. It is because those people sculptured their tombs into stone and buried their dead in stone coffins that we have something left of their civilisation. These tombs represent the last century of the pre-Christian period and the first century of the
Christian period. During this time Jerusalem was under Roman control and Christ spent much time here. The Dominus Flevit not only has meaning for the archaeologist but also for the pilgrim of today. For here he can see the modern Jerusalem and the general lines of Herod's Jerusalem. He is not really far from Christ in time.

SCHOLARSHIP AND STUDY Of GOSPELS CAN LEAD ONLY TO MORE KNOWLEDGE OF CIIIIIST Vatican City: The Pontifical Commission for Biblical Studies has urged Catholic scholars to use all the new means of scholarship "to throw full light on the perennial truth and authority of the Gospels." In an instruction ratified by Pope Paul VI on April 21 and published in the May 14 issue of the Vatican City daily, L'Osservatore Romano, the commission cautioned scholars to remain faithful to "the norms of rational and Catholic hermeneutics," the branch of the theology which defines the laws applied by exegesis, the critical explanation of Scriptural passages. The commission also said scholars should make use "of the new means of exegelii and particularly of those offered by the universally esteemed historical method." DEFINITION The instruction defined the historical method as one which "studies the sources and defines their nature and value, making use of textual criticism, of literary criticism and of the knowledge of languages." It said that by studying the languages of writings and the contexts and cir"11.4 , 04.4.441.#4,41,4.4.4,1.4.4.#4,04411 , 004.440

cumstances surrounding them, the Biblical scholar "will exploit all means by which ,he may penetrate more deeply the nature of the testimony of the Gospels, the religious life of primitive Christian communities, in the sense and in the value of the Apostolic tradition." The document also sanctions the use by Biblical scholars of the "method of the history of forms" or word usages and says they "may make due use of them for a more extensive understanding of the Gospel. "Form criticism" seeks to classify units of the Scriptures into literary patterns and attempts to trace them to their original usage through preaching—before they were put into print. WITH CAUTION The use of form criticism has been a sore point with some conservative Catholic Biblical scholars who fear it leaves too open the possibility of the Bible's being emptied of its divine origin and inspiration. Although sanctioning the use of form criticism, the instruction states it is to be used "with caution, because the said method is often connected with mad-

missable philosophic and theological principles which often vitiate the method itself as well as conclusions on literary matter." The instruction noted that "some supporters of this method, moved by rationalistic prejudices, refuse to recognise the existence of the supernatural order and the intervention of a personal God in the world by means of Revelation proper, or the possihility of miracles and proplsecies "Others start from a false notion of faith, as if faith did not care for historical truth or were even incompatible with it. Others deny a priori the historical value and nature of the documents of Revelation. And finally, others, taking into little account the authority of the Apostles as witnesses of Jesus Christ as well as their office and influence in the primitive community, exaggerate the creative powers of this community. All these are not only contrary to Catholic doctrine but also lack any scientific foundation and are outside the correct principles of the historical method." ST. JEROME The document is composed of an introduction and five numbered sections. In the introduction, Catholic Biblical scholars are urged to deal with each other with charity, remembering that even St. Jerome, who translated the Bible into Latin, had only "relative success" is resolving various problems. After dealing with historical method and form criticism in the first section, the document then goes on to analyse the relation of Christ to His Apostles while living, and of the Apostles' relations to Him after His death, in their preaching and writing of the New Testament. In part it makes the point that the Apostles "honoured Jesus as the Lord and Son of God, and there was no t ransformation of Him into a single 'mythical' person nor a distortion of His teaching" However, it also points out that the Apostles expressed the facts in their own individual way, enlightened by Christ's teaching and by the Holy Spirit.
EACH HIS OWN The document noted the various Apostles chose to preach "in a way suitable for their specific aim and for the mentality of their listeners. This primitive instruction was done at first orally and then set down in later was writing and gathered into the Gospels, with each of the four authors selecting details and the order of events "suitable to various conditions of the faithful and the aims they had set themselves narrating it in a way as to meet these conditions and that aim." From new studies by Biblical scholars, says the document, "there emerges the fact that the life and teaching of Jesus were not simply reported for the sole purpose of preserving their memory, but were 'preached" so as to offer the basis for faith and morals. Therefore, by diligently scrutinising testimonies of the evangelists, the exegete will be in a position to illustrate with greater penetration the perennial theological value of the Gospels and throw full light on how necessary and how important is the interpretation of the Church." STUDENTS In the third section of the document, the instruction insists that students for the priesthood should study the Bible for its theological values primarily and warns against the danger of indulging in literary criticism for itself alone. "Let them (Professors) not stop halfway, content with their literary devices, but let them show how these devices contribute in reality to understanding even more clearly the revealed doctrine or when possible to reject errors." In the fourth section, the instruction urges preachers to avoid "advancing vain or insufficiently proven innovations, (though) they may explain if necessary and with caution new opinions, already solidly demonstrated, bearing in mind the condition of the listeners. In narrating Biblical facts, they should not mix in with them fictitious details which little conform with truth." WRITERS Prudence was also urged for all writing on Biblical subjects to remain close to the Tradition of the Church "while treasuring the advances of Biblical science and using profitably the results of the modern scholars, but avoiding altogther the temerious opinions of innovatiors." The instruction reminded that Biblical writings for publication should be submitted for the approval of those having Ordinary authority, and the document urged Ordinaries to keep diligent watch on such writings. The last section stated simply: "Let those who preside over Biblical associations comply faithfully with the norms set by the Pontifical Commision for Biblical Studies."

"YOU'LL NEVER WALK AGAIN OR MOVE YOUR FINGERS."
By • • • BRIAN COLLINS
"ALL DUE RESPECTS TO YOU, DOC, ONLY GOD CAN SAY THAT." He turned slowly from my bed with a nod and a doubtful smile and, though I knew that things could have been worse, my future did look grim. To think of the past made things harder. In spite of all my efforts memories kept flooding back of what life had held for me up to that day-13 weeks before — when everything had changed . . . I was born in 1933 in Fremantle, Western Australia, third youngest of a workingclass family of thirteen. My parents, having the Faith of their Irish forebears, sent me to school at the Christian Brothers' College. As a member of the Cathedral choir, I received by education free. When my schooldays were over, I served my term as apprentice carpenter to my father, but, too restless to stick at a steady trade, I went cray-fishing for a while up the coast. After a few foolhardy exploits and hairescapes from breadth sharks, I returned to the city and began to earn good money as a salesman and, an enthusiastic always player of Australian Rules football, was in line for selection as a member of the State team. I had also met Dolores, with whom I was going steady, but being only 23, I wanted to see more of the world before settling down. There was plenty of time for everything, I told myself.
KEEN SHOT In June, 1957, I headed for the North-West in a four-wheel drive utility with a brother of mine and two friends. We planned to work our way around Australia and had managed well for the first 1.400 miles when, leaving the pearling port of Broome behind us, we reached the first crossing of the Fitzroy River. Here we stopped on the bank to cook fish and watch for croco• diles. It was a glorious day and life seemed so exciting and wonderful. "This is the life," I said, as we packed the ute for the next stage. "Yes," my brother replied, "almost too good to last." As I had always been a keen shot, I perched myself on the bonnet of the car, rifle ready for potshots at Kangaroos and eagle hawks as we sped along the smooth, sun-drenched highway through vast golden plains dotted with ant-hills and boab trees.
TRAGEDY As evening drew in, it began to get cool and someone passed me my shirt from the cabin. I'm not sure whc t happened next. I only remember the sudden sense of shock, then lying on the road, looking up under the front of the vehicle, one of the wheels pressing hard against my chest. It was probably my size-6ft. 2in., and over 200 pounds—that had prevented the ute running over me. My two friends hurried to the township of Fitzroy Crossing a few miles ahead, leaving my brother to look after me.Iremember telling him to put a bullet into me, whether seriously or not, I cannot say. The next moment, however, I asked him to say the Rosary with me as we had all done every night during the trip. I woke up later that night
in the Australian Inland Mission hospital in Fitzroy Crossing and next morning was picked up by the Flying Doctor and taken into the port of Derby. Here it was found that I had dislocated my spine below the neck and I was flown to Perth for immediate operation. After lying for six weeks with weights attached to my head and feet, I was removed to a rehabilitation annex for 18 months before returning home in wheelchair.
TO LOURDES In 1960 I heard that "The Catholic PilAustralian grims' Club" was calling for nominations from the incurably sick who needed financial help to undertake a pilgrimage to Lourdes. I was urged to apply and to my surprise was promised £300 towards my expenses. My doctor was sceptical and, no doubt hoping to prepare me for disappointment, said I was expecting a lot from the Almighty. In this he did not fully understand my outlook, I'm afraid, for I regarded Lourdes not only as a place of possible cure, but as a source of Grace.
"I'M YOUR MAN" As it happened, however, none of my family was able to accompany me, and it seemed that, after all, this great privilege was not to be mine. The day the pilgrimage left Fremantle, my friend, Father Hansberry, dropped in to introduce me to a young friend of his, Max Hebble. We discussed the pilgrimage and my disappointment, but after they left I tried to put it out of my mind. Two weeks later they returned. "If you still want to go to Lourdes," Max said, "I'm your man." I thought he was joking, but he assured me he was quite prepared to sell his business and accompany me. I told him he did not realise what this would mean and that to begin with he would have to be able to lift me. Max was only 5ft. 7in. and and weighed about 145 pounds, but he quickly proved that he could carry me quite easily. I then explained that he would also have to nurse and care for me in every way. He said that would be good for his soul. He sold his business and six weeks later we were on our way.
CONFIDENT By this time I felt confident enough that we would manage, but had Max understand that if I should die on the voyage he was to feel in no way responsible. There were difficulties, of course, but somehow, between the two of us, these became a laugh. The wheelchair was too wide for the cabin door, which meant that Max had to carry me in a rolling ship from the passage to my bunk and in the process we often hit our heads against the cabin walls. Max looked after me wonderfully, and it was only later that he told me what a shock it had been to him until he got used to it. I feel sure that I was intended to go to Lourdes partly because of the people we met on that ship. We became good friends with the ship's doctor, nursing

sisters and officers, as well as many of the passengers. Some of them poked kindly fun at our Australian ways and speech and doubted us when we told them true stories of the outback, so we made up tales about Max's goanna and prickly pear farm and race meetings at which kangaroos were ridden by piccaninny jockeys. They believed us!
GOOD FRIEND We had not been long on board before we managed to form a Rosary group of 35 passengers, including some we were to meet again. One of our best friends was a Presbyterian minister from Queensland, who approached me one day early in the voyage when he saw that I was distressed over some incident or other. He suggested that as there was no Catholic priest on board he might be able to help me. Suspicious at first,I did not encourage him. Next day he came to me when I was alone on the deck. "What I wanted to tell you," he said, "is that when you get upset about something you should say an 'Ave' on your rosary." I was so amazed I could only say that I could not get at my beads without help. He told me it would be enough if I put my hand close to them. When I expressed surprise later that he should know so much about the Catholic religion, he said: "We are closer than you think." Before we left the ship at Marseilles, the doctor invited us to his cabin, where all the officers, from the captain down, had gathered to drink our health. Some of the passengers came up to us that last day and said: "We're not of your Faith, but we've been praying for you and we wish you all the best." Our special friend, "The Reverend," as we called him, when saying goodbye, gave us a letter which he told us not to open until he had left us. His message was so touching that I have always treasured it. It was addressed "To two very wonderful fellows" and it read: "Dear Brian and Max, "There is so much that a Scot cannot say, but he can express in writing, hence this letter. I am deeply proud to have had the privilege of your friendship, but, honestly, fellows, I do not feel worthy of it. You have both taught me a lot in courage and sacrifice and yet at no time have you appeared sanctimonious. God forgive me, but I find it difficult—very, very difficult. starch-shirt —to forgive Christianity. "You are a good pair and represent the best of Australian life. Keep it up and don't quit. There are two friends I will really miss on my travels, but in my prayers I will be with you every step of the way. Although I am a dour Scots heretic, I will be standing on the sidelines at Lourdes rooting for you and even the blessed angels will get weary of my nrayers. "Could I quote for you the words of a famous Scot? " 'Christ be with me, Christ above me, Christ to comfort and restore me, Christ beneath me, Christ beside me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me. Christ in mouth of friend and stranger. Today I arise invoking the Blessed Trinity, confessing the Blessed Unity. Saviour on us Salva tion be.' (rine Breastplate of St. Patrick.)

Australian Bishops' Release On The Liturgy
WASHINGTON: Children in public schools can go on pledging their allegiance to "one nation under God," as a result of a new action by the U.S. Supreme Court. The high court dismissed without comment a challenge to the use of the phrase "under God" in the pledge to the U.S. flag recited by children in New York public schools. The court, in effect, answered nagging questions about how far it is prepared to go in barring religious expressions f rom public schools in the wake of its 1962 and 1963 rulings against prayer and Bible reading in these schools. The answer appears to be that the court has drawn a dividing line between religious exercises properly socalled — like prayer and Bible reading — and ceremonies in which religion is present only by way of allusion—as in the case of the flag pledge. The former are forbidden in public schools, the latter permitted. The challenge dismissed by the Supreme Court was brought before it in September by an organisation called the Freethinkers of America. The Freethinkers contended that the Federal Constitution's ban on an establishment of religion was violated by having children in public schools say the words "under God" as part of the flag pledge.

US[ OF SLAT BtLTS URGED With the hol iday season approaching it was now time for motorists without seat belts in their cars to get them, Mr. H. W. Dettman, chairman of the executive committee of the National Safety Council's road safety division, said recently. I t was the car owner's moral responsibility to provide passengers with safety belts before j oining the throngs of holiday motorists. Since a promotion campaign had been organised, there had been a definite increase in awareness of the advantages of seat belts. More people were seen wearing them and there had been more reported instances of people being saved by them in road accidents.

roads. Safety authorities, the police and other bodies are trying various means to decrease this toll. While the greater part of this project must still be left to the human element to fulfill, various mechanical assistances have been introduced to help.
Thomas Meagher, formerly presented the Hon. J. F. Craig, M.L.A., Minister for Transport and Police, with a set of seat belts. Neither Sir Thomas nor Mr. Craig needed safety belts because they have used seats belts since their first introduction. The publicity was given for your benefit. The percentage of cars being fitted with seat belts is rising. But the Safety Council wants to make sure from their publicity that those who have seat belts use them at all times.
SAFETY HELMETS Readers may recall the time when motor cyclists and scooter riders did not wear safety helmets. An intensive campaign was waged to persuade riders that this was the sensible thing to do. Statistics have shown that the campaign overcame the problems, the reluctance and the arguments against the wearing of the safety helmet. Today one seldom sees a rider without a helmet. SAME STYLE Safety Week, 1964, in Western Australia, held last October, was a climax in the State Seat Belt Campaign. This coincided with the commencement of the National Campaign. On this occasion, the president of the National Safety Council of W.A., Sir
PERSUADE They also hope that those who have and use the belts will persuade other car owners to have them fitted. Dr. John Lane of the Traffic Injury Committee of the National Health and Medical Research Council said that if the national seat belt campaign achieves its stated objective of increasing the wearing of seat belts by 15 p.c. — making a total of 25 p.c. of the nation's cars — 2,590 road casualties would be saved throughout Australia annually.

Cardinal Augustus Khrushchev for the release of Archbishop Josyf Bea, of the Vatican, had told me of his great concern Slipyi of Lvov, in the Ukraine, who had spent for the Bishop's health. "The chairman said he was unfamiliar with the nearly 18 years in jail and under house arrest. case of Archbishop Beran, FOLLOW UP
Archbishop Slipyi's release was announced in Moscow on February 9, 1963, two months after the CousinsKhrushchev meeting, and at the very time that the Catholic prelate was secretly arriving in Rome. Pope John XXIII confirmed news of the release on the morning of February 10. a Sunday, and met the Ukrainian Catholic Primate that same afternoon. Archbishop Slipyi has remained in the Rome area since his release, and last February Pope Paul VI conferred on him the new title of "major archbishop." Cousins tells of his part in gaining freedom for the Byzantine Rite leader in the lead article of the Saturday Review, a weekly national publication, for November 7, entitled "Notes on a 1963 Visit With Khrushchev." In it, the 52-year-old editor makes public the fact that he had long meetings with Khrushchev both on December 7, 1962, and on April 12, 1963. He did not report on the meetings when they occurred, Cousins states, because he was serving as a "private emissary" rather than as a journalist. ADVANCE COPY The second meeting took place two days after Pope John's encyclical on peace. Pace min Terris, was released at the Vatican. Cousins relates that he had been entrusted with an advance copy of the encyclical, translated into Russian by Vatican officials, for presentation to the Soviet Premier. He recalls that when he gave the copy of the encyclical, Khrushchev told him he was pleased and would "read it with great interest." Of the first meeting, in Moscow, Cousins states: "I was acting on behalf of Church leaders who felt the time might be opportune for exploring the possibilities of enlarged freedoms inside the Soviet Union. In particular, the object of the mission was to obtain the release of Bishop Slipyi, the head of the Ukrainian Rite."

Exhibits At Bologna: Its Common Sense * DESMOND O'GRADY writes from BOLOGNA During the last Council Session, on its long weekend a group of 88 Council Fathers, together with observers and journalists, visited the biennial sacred art exhibition at Bologna. The exhibition was held in the Antonio, a Franciscan centre which is active in both charitable and cultural fields. Each day it provides 150 meals for the poor; it supplies free clothing for the needy and has built one block of 17 flats for people who otherwise would not find decent housing. Its cultural activities include the biennial art exhibition, a drama school and an annual festival of children's songs. Shortly, it will have a television production and transmission unit functioning; it has a cinema which exhibits seven days a week. COMMUNITY The trip was an opportunity to contact the Church of Bologna: the community grouped around its bishop, Cardinal Giacomo Lercaro. The Cardinal has given his diocese this sense of identity but not in an exclusive way for at the same time it is more conscious of its links with the whole Church. Bologna foreshadowed the themes of the Council: for ten years a theological research centre there has been studying collegiality and it made its findings known to the Council; for as many years the liturgical renewal has made itself felt in the diocese. At the moment of writing the annual diocesan mission on the Mass is under way.

"The Great Poverello" by Michele Korcsmaros
SHARING Cardinal Lercaro has 70 poor students living with him. They come from Nigeria, the Cameroons, the Sudan, Hungary, Venezuela and Italy. It is not a student hostel but a home in which Cardinal Lercaro is father. He wakes the boys each morning at 6.30, says Mass for them, they eat together without trace of formality, he is always available for a talk with them. During the Council he writes them a daily collective letter explaining what has happened and, in addition, a personal letter to a different boy each day. He follows their studies, which are mainly at university level, with close interest; successes bring a telegram of congratulation signed Papa' which is spelt the same as the word Pope but is pronounced differently and means dad. REWARDING Cardinal Lercaro began to care for needy boys when flooding of the river Po left many homeless while he was bishop in Ravenna. He emphasises the social aspect of the spiritual training he gives the boys and aims particularly to help them assume their responsibilities of marriage. He has a reward in the many former students who return to visit him. About forty of them have named their first son Giacomo.

SPECIAL LIFT-OUT SUPPLEMENT
INSTRUCTION OF LITURGY COMMISSION Introduction
I—N ATURE OF THIS INSTRUCTION 1—The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy is deservedly counted among the first fruits of the Second Ecumenical Vatican Council, since it governs the most excellent part of the Church's activity. It will bear more abundant fruit the more profoundly the pastors and the faithful of Christ perceive its genuine spirit and put it into practice with goodwill. 2—The Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, established by the Supreme Pontiff, Paul VI, in the apostolic letter Sacram Liturgiam has already speedily undertaken the task entrusted to it, to bring the directives of the Constition and of the apostolic letter a proper fulfilment and to provide for the interpretation and execution of these documents. 3—It is of the greatest importance that the documents, from the very begining, should be properly apwith everywhere, plied doubts, if there are any, concerning its interpretation being removed. Therefore, the Commission, by mandate of the Supreme Pontiff, has prepared this Instruction, in which the functions of the bodies of bishops in liturgical matters are more clearly defined, some principles given in general words in the abovementioned documents are explained more precisely, and finally some matters, which can be put into practice now, before the restoration of the liturgical books, are allowed or required.

Some General Norms 1—APPLICATION OF THESE NORMS 9—The practical norms, found in the Constitution or in this Instruction, and whatever is permitted or determined now by this Instruction before the restoration of the liturgical books, even if they pertain to the R oman rite alone, may nevertheless be applied to the other Latin rites, the provisions of law being observed. 10—Those matters which are entrusted to the competent territorial ecclesiastical authority in this Instruction may and should be put into effect by that authority alone through legitimate decrees. In individual cases, the time and the circumstances in which these decrees will take effect shall be defined, always with a reasonable interval of time for the faithful to be instructed and prepared for their observance.

The directors themselves shall take part in this common recitation, as far as possible. In addition, sufficient time shall be provided in the order of the day for clerics in sacred orders to pray the divine office. It is desirable that, at least on major feast days, the students should chant vespers in the cathedral church, where possible. 17—Exercises of piety, arranged according to the laws or customs of each place or institute, shall be held in due esteem. Nevertheless, care should be taken, especially if these exercises are celebrated in common, that they be in harmony with the sacred liturgy, according to the purpose of Art. 13, and that they be related to the seasons of the liturgical year.

and the whole celebration shall be closed with the or "common prayer" "prayer of the faithful" and with the Lord's Prayer. 38—It is also fitting that sacred celebrations of the word of God, which are to be encouraged on the vigils of the more solemn feasts, on some weekdays in Advent and Lent, and on Sundays and feast days, should take into account the pattern of the liturgy of the word in Mass, although there may be only a single reading. In the arrangement of several readings, however. in order that the history of salvation may be clearly discerned, the reading from the Old Testament shall generally precede the reading from the New Testament, and the reading of the Holy Gospel shall appear as the climax. 39—In order that these celebrations may be held with dignity and piety, it shall be the task of the liturgical commissions in the individual dioceses to indicate and provide appropriate aids. XI—VERNACULAR TRANSLATIONS OF L ITURGICAL TEXTS (Const., Art. 36, 3)
43 — Particular liturgical books which were lawfully approved before the promulgation of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy and indults conceded up to that day retain their force, unless they are opposed to the Constitution, until other provision is made in the liturgical restoration, as it will be completed in whole or in part. XII — THE LITURGICAL COMMISSION OF THE BODY OF BISHOPS (Const., Art. 44) 44—The liturgical commission, which it is desirable that the territorial authority establish, shall be chosen from among the bishops themselves, as far as possible. At least it shall consist of one or other bishop, with the addition of some priests expert in liturgical and pastoral matters. who are designated by name for this office. It is desirable that the members of this Commission be convened several times a year with the con suitors of the Commission that they may deal with questions together. 45—The territorial authority may, as circumstances suggest, entrust the following to this Commission: (a) studies and experiments to be promoted in accordance with the norm of Art. 40, 1 and 2 of the Constitution; (b) practical initiatives to be undertaken for the entire territory, by which the liturgy and the application of the Constitution on the Liturgy may be encouraged; (c) studies and the preparation of aids which become necessary in virtue of the decrees of the plenary body of bishops; (d) the office of regulating the pastoral-liturgical action in the entire nation, supervising the application of the decrees of the plenary body, and reporting concerning all these matters to the body; (e) consultations to be undertaken frequently and common initiatives to be promoted with associations in the same region which are concerned with scripture, catechetics, pastoral care, music, and sacred art, and with every kind of religious association of the laity. 46—The members of the institute of pastoral liturgy as well as individual experts who are called to assist the liturgical commission shall also freely offer their assistance to individual bishops for the more effective pro motion of pastoral-liturgical action in their territory.

40—In vernacular translations of liturgical texts prepared in accordance with the norm of Art. 36, 3, it is fitting that the following be observed: ( a) The vernacular translations of liturgical texts shall be made from the Latin liturgical text. The version of the biblical pen copes, however, should conform to the Latin liturgical text, but with the possibility of revising this translation, if deemed advisable in accordance with the original text or some other clearer translation. (b) The preparation of the translation of liturgical texts should be entrusted, as a special concern, to the Liturgical commission mentioned in Art. 44 of the Constitution and in n. 44 of this Instruction. So far as possible the institute of pas torl liturgy should assist the commission. But if there is no such commission, the supervision of the translation should be entrusted to t wo or three bishops, who will choose persons, including lay persons, expert in Scripture, liturgy, biblical languages, Latin, the vernacular language, and music. For the perfect translation of the liturgical text into the language of the people must necessarily and properly" fulfil many conditions at the same time. (c) Whenever it is called for, there should be consultation concerning translations with the bishops of XIII — THE DIOCESAN neighbouring regions which LITURGICAL have the same language. (Const., Art.

III—THE HOMILY ( Const., Art. 52) 53—There shall be a homily on Sundays and feast days of precept in all Masses which are celebrated with the people present. No exception may be made for c onventual, sung, or pontifical Masses. On other days, a homily is recommended, especially on some of the weekdays of Advent and Lent, as well as in other circumstances when the people come to church in larger numbers. 54—By a homily from the sacred text is understood an e xplantion either of some aspect of the readings from holy Scripture or of another text from the Ordinary or Proper of the Mass of the day, taking into account the mystery which is being celebrated and the particular needs of the hearers. 55—If plans of preaching within Mass are proposed for certain periods, the intimate connection with at least the principal seasons and feasts of the liturgical year (cf. Const., Art. 102104), that is, with the mystery of the Redemption, is to be harmoniously preserved: for the homily is part of the liturgy of the day. IV —THE
COMMON P RAYER OR PRAYER OF THE FAITHFUL (Const., Art. 53) 56—In places where the custom is already in force of having the common prayer or prayer of the faithful, for the interim it shall take place before the offertory, after the word Oremus, according to the formulas now in use in the individual regions. The celebrant shall direct the prayers either from his seat, from the altar, from the ambo, or from the edge of the sanctuary area.
The intentions or invocations may be chanted by a deacon or a cantor or other qualified server, reserving to the celebrant the words of introduction and the concluding prayer. This latter will ordinarily be: Deus, refugium nostrum et virtus (cf. Missale Romanum, Orations diversae, n. 20) or another prayer which come-
sponds better to a particular need. In places where the common prayer or prayer of the faithful is not in use, the competent territorial authority may decree that it be done in the manner indicated above, with formulas approved for the interim by that autority. V—THE PLACE WHICH MAY BE GRANTED TO THE VERNACULAR LANGUAGE IN THE MASS (Const., Art. 54) 57—In Masses, whether sung or low, which are celebrated with the people, the competent territorial ecclesiastical authority may admit the vernacular language, the decrees having been approved, that is, confirmed, by the Apostolic See: (a) especially in proclaiming the lessons, Epistle, and Gospels, as well as in the common prayer or prayer of the faithful; (b) according to the circumstances of the place, also in the chants of the Ordinary of the Mass, namely, Kyrie, Gloria, Creed, Sanctus - Benedictus, and Agnus Dei, and in the antiphons at the Introit, Offertory and Communion, as well as in the chants that occur between the lessons; (c) Moreover, in the acclamations, salutations, and dialogue formulas, together with the formulas at the Communion of the faithful: Ecce Agnus Dei, Domine non sum dignus, and Corpus Chisti, and in the Lord's Prayer with its introduction and embolism. Missals for liturgical use, however, should contain the Latin text in addition to the vernacular translation. 58—It pertains solely to the Apostolic See to concede the vernacular language in other parts of the Mass hich are chanted or TOcited by the celebrant alone. 59—Pastors of souls shall carefully see to it that the faithful, more particularly the members of lay relialso associations, gious know how to say or to sing together in the Latin Ian. g.uage those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them, especially with the use of simpler melodies. VI—THE FACULTY OF REPEATING COMMUNION ON THE SAME DAY (Const., Art. 55) 60—The faithful who communicate in the Mass of the Easter Vigil or in the midnight Mass of Christmas may also receive Communion again in the second Mass of Easter and in one of the Masses which are celebrated on Christmas in the daytime.

He blessed one bedridden little girl who spontaneously returned his blessing. In the polio ward, a small girl dressed in a bright red frock studded with glass beads, tried to walk a few steps with him by using a wooden walker which supported her braced feet. That afternoon, he visited prominent citizens of Bombay and members of the committee of India's Congress party, the ruling political party. He later presided at a Syro-Malankara Rite Mass at the Oval, and blessed the sick there. He began his last day in Bombay with a Mass for altar -servers in the cathedral. While the morning was still young, he left for the Shrine of Our Lady at Bandra, and then visited the diocesan seminary. From there he went to the airport and to Rome again. He was the first Pope to visit the land evangelised by the first Pope's brother, St. Thomas the Apostle. •

four candles, two of them burning on this Second Sunday of Advent, We had come to spend the day in learning better the meaning of this season, and in finding ways to make it vivid in our home among our family. So we began at Mass, where everybody took part as fully as possible, even to singing Advent hymns, quite new to most of us, but so simple and pleasing that with Father Albert Lynch's encouragement and the support of the girls' choir, we felt we did quite well.

then sing an Advent carol. The first reading we heard was from Genesis, when God created light and made man in His own image. Next was a passage from Isaiah's prophecy of the Messiah's coming. The third theme was John the Baptist, the last of the prophets, and finally there was the account of the Annunciation. As a surprise parting gift we all received an Advent Wreath made by the girls of the Orphanage. I think we all heard many new and interesting ideas, and felt encouraged to try some in our own homes. Of course, such a day does not just happen. It was a project of the Seminar for Liturgical Studies, and we are grateful to Dr. Eduard von Perger, who had the idea and who organised it so well.
League
Members are advised that there will be a picture evening at Victoria Square at 8 p.m. on Thursday, December 17. The slides will be of New Guinea and are to be shown and commented on by Sister Julian. All members and friends will be welcome. At the recent fete at Ngala the sweet stall was conducted by the League delegate, Mrs. M. Gabbedy. This was very successful and Mrs. Gabbedy wishes to thank all members and branches who contributed towards the success. The League has offered to conduct the cake stall at the fete being held for the Night Shelter and Soup Kitchen in March next year. This is still a long way off, and members will be further reminded when activities resume in February. Representatives who attended the Travellers Aid Christmas morning tea reported it had been a very successful and enjoyable morning. The League was also represented at the National Council Christmas morning tea, they too having an enjoyable session. Would card-playing members please note that the card afternoons at the Centre will continue as usual during the League recess. Notices will appear in this column. The Christmas party was a highly successful evening. and a full report will be in next week's issue. BRANCH NOTICES

Y.C.W. BRANCH NOTES By Y.C.W. Branch Correspondents of PALMYRA (Girls): Some the attended leaders the Y.C.W. social at Bunbury and had a very enjoyable w eekend. There will be a meeting of the social committee on Thursday at 8.15 p.m. The branch wishes a v ery speedy recovery to Margaret McManus, who is at present in hospital.

The enquiry on savings as part of preparation for marriage is still in progress. A leader brought up the problem of of youth taking intoxicating drink. It was thought that perhaps these fellows are bored and have no interests
in sport or other healthy activities. Whatever the reason, each has an obligation to try to interest himself in something that will be able to help them. A final reminder to everyone of the Christmas Barn Dance at the Sloga Hall on this Sunday night. COTTESLOE: The social held last week was a great success both socially and financially. The branch is combining with Claremont for a Christmas dance to be held on Sunday, December 20. Weekly meetings are now on Thursday nights. HIGHGATE (Boys): All the members who attended the State Conference over the weekend remarked on what a great time they had both in the social and spiritual aspect and that they met some old friends there. Again the Youth Club had a good attendance last week and the play which was put on by some members was well received by all who attended. The president asked all members this week for the reports on the branch which were assigned to them so that the branch will be able to publish its report for the year ended December 31.

There shall be, however, a sermon or homily drawn from the sacred text (cf. Const., Art. 52), after the reading of the Epistle and Gospel from the Mass for the spouses, so that the order of the whole rite shall be: brief admonition, reading of the Epistle and Gospel in the vernacular language, homily, celebration of marriage, nuptial blessing.

Catholics cannot be expected to be present and engage actively in the offisuch worship of cial Churches as if separation from their own Church and denial of its claims were justified. "CATHOLIC EXCLUSIVENESS" Q.: I know you have a rule forbidding you to enter a Protestant Church, even as an extreme case to attend a funeral service for a dead friend. R.: The Canon Law of the Catholic Church itself authorises bishops to permit such attendance as an act of sympathy and charity, where social reasons of relationship or friendship warrant or even demand it.
R.: That is true. God is infinitely perfect in Himself and, as we say, "transcendent." That is, He is different in being and nature from the created universe, which we call "nature" itself, viewing it from our point of view and as part of it. Nothing that happens to the created universe is happening to God. If things go wrong in the created universe, they are not going wrong in God. The universe is not "part" of God.

tion"; and if it can't make God unhappy as He is in Himself, since it is opposed radically to the will of God and treats God as if He were of no account or even as if He were non-existent, we can say it would kill God if it could. As for saddening His "heart," we know that God as a pure Spirit hasn't got a heart. But when the Second Divine Person became man in the Incarnation, He took a human heart; and in Him we are shown what sin means in the sight of God. Our Lord, as true God and true man, put before us in the agony of the Garden of Gethsemane, a human heart saddened indeed by the burden of our sins! and, as Father Faber says, since sin would kill God if it could, when the "Word was made flesh and dwelt among us" sin fastened on that flesh and was its death. So, although God "as transcendent" is perfectly happy in Himself, when in His immense Love He entered into the created order, sin, "the blot in creation," inflicted the penalty of suffering and death on the created human nature by which He had made Himself, not in the Divine Nature but in His human nature, part of that created order.

Mann, in "The Lives of the Popes of the Middle Ages" (1925) Vol. 5, p. 240, says the story is based on the unsupported assertion of a contemporary irresponsible gossip named Raoul GIaber. H. K. Mann points out that the statement is irreconcilable with other contemporary writers who, while strongly denouncing the wayward behaviour of Benedict IX, never mention his mere boyhood as an excuse for it. At the time of his election, all the evidence points to Benedict's having been at least in his twenties, although one author at the time, Beno, in his "Gesta Romanae Ecclesiae," holds that he was well over thirty. So that's that, without going further into the history of Benedict IX and his times, nearly ten centuries ago.
FAMOUS ROSETTA STONE CURIOUS, Granville: What was the Rosetta Stone? R: The "Rosetta Stone" was an inscribed basalt discovered monument by a French army officer near Rosetta, a village on the west bank near the mouth of the River Nile, in 1789. This recorded both in Egyptian and Greek a decree of the Egyptian priests assembled at Memphis supporting the cause of Ptolemy V of Egypt in the second century B.C. The two-language stone provided the French Y OUR
scholar J. F. Champollion with a key to the interpretation of Egyptian hieroglyphics and of demotic writing — from the Greek word "demos" meaning "people" — a popular and simplified form of Egyptian script, which had previously defied all attempts at translation of Egyptian characters into modern Western languages. On the fall of Alexandria in 1801, the "Rosetta Stone" became the property of the British Government and is now preserved in the British Museum.

S.S., MASCOT, asks . . . CAN A YOUNG MAN WHO WANTS TO BECOME A CATHOLIC GET OUT OF HIS PROMISE TO ONE OF HIS RELATIVES BEFORE SHE DIED THAT HE WOULD NEVER BECOME A CATHOLIC?
4.4n,.......nnpodp.rdNre#4.4,,Antdrirrrossnare#4.4.4.4.4P4,40,••••••••••••••••,#4.4.44P4Nr.".
R.: It is not a matter of "getting out" of such a promise, if the young man is conscientiously convinced of the truth of the Catholic religion. In such a case, the promise itself ceases to have any force at all and should be treated as non-existent. In merely temporal affairs having to do with this world only, promises to deceased relatives should be observed unless there are serious reasons, possibly due to later developments unforeseen by the deceased person, excusing one from fulfilling such promises. But it is a very different matter where religion is concerned; for here duties to God are involved. A non-Catholic who becomes conscientiously convinced of the truth of the Catholic religion is obliged before God to obey his conscience and become a Catholic. He is not only free to ignore earlier promises not to do so; he is obliged not to let them stand in the way of his becoming a Catholic, no matter to whom such promises were made. Our Lord stressed that no lesser claims upon us can avail against our duties to God when He said: "He that loveth his father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me" (Matt. 10:37).

• PROSPECTIVE "MARRIAGE-CONVERT" Q.: Ihave in mind a young non-Catholic man who wants to marry a Catholic girl. We would all like him to become a Catholic; and he says he would like to, but that he feels tied by a promise to a deceased relative not to do so. R.: Here we must be careful. No non-Catholic man has any right to be received into the Catholic Church unless it be because he is conscientiously convinced of the truth of the Catholic religion. The young man you mention cannot become a Catholic just to please you or to please the girl, regardless of whether he believes in the Catholic religion or not. At most he can offer to receive instruction in the Catholic religion, and after such instruction ask himself whether or not he has attained to a sincere belief in the Catholic religion. If he has, well and good; if not, he cannot in conscience become a Catholic. The sincerity of such a young man's conviction would be evident if he told you all, the girl included: "I so realise the truth of the Catholic religion that I feel obliged in conscience to become a Catholic and I'm going to do so quite independently of this prospective marriage and whether we go on with that or not." What we have to understand is that religion belongs to God; that we cannot play around with it as we please; and that no motive less than a sense of duty to God Himself justifies decisions in such a matter. Self-deception is so easy and, particularly when we know there are other motives liable to influence us, we must be doubly careful in examining our conscience to make sure we are acting through genuine personal conviction where religion is concerned.

BAN LIFTED BONN.— For the first time in many years, Bishop Aaron Marton of Alba Julia, the only Catholic bishop in Communist Rumania, has been given permission to visit his diocesan semiinary. Restrictions on visitors to his residence have been relaxed, it was reported here by KNA, German Catholic news agency. The 68-year old bishop is a native of Alba Julia. Ordained in 1924, he was consecrated on February 12, 1939. In June, 1949, he was arrested by the communist regime for refusing to accept a Red proposal regarding Church-state relations and for his refusal to deny the primacy of the pope. Bishop Marton was placed under police surveillance for several months and later jailed. After six years in prison he was released in 1955, subject to close police restrictions. Visitors to his residence were obliged to seek authorisation from the government's religious affairs office. In the summer of 1964, the government . freed about 100 Catholic priests from prison, but they were not allowed to return to their pastoral duties. The bishop's residence remained under Police guard, and he was allowed to say Mass in his cathedral only on important holidays. Ordinations had to be conducted in his residence chapel.
A group of young carol singers is pictured outside an English home as Christmas day draws near. Their "concert" is usually short, probably a couple of carols at the most. Then comes a knock at the door, or a rattling of the letter box asking for a donation towards some good cause. Life in Britain over the Christmas period becomes, in fact, almost one long series of carols. As well as the youngsters at the doors and the choirs in the streets, there are c arol services in nearly every place of worship, from the smallest village Churches to big Cathedrals --(Photo 13.K.

PRIEST OPERATES NUTRITION CLINIC FOR BABIES FATHER IVAR McGRATI-1, S.S.C., writes from YUAN, LIN, FORMOSA. TWICE EACH WEEK THE YARD OUTSIDE THE CHURCII HERE IS FILLED WITH MOTHERS AND BABIES. Most of the babies don't look too healthy. They seem definitely undernourished. That's why • they are here. They are attending the nutrition clinic operated by the parish priest of Yuan Lin, Father Joseph C osgrove, M.M. Father Cosgrove walks the to talking about, mothers, calling the babies by name, and commenting on their progress. "This poor child has only started to come," he says, patting on the head a thin baby of about eight months in his mothers' arms. "If you returned here in six months you wouldn't recognise the child." Two years ago Father Cosgrove decided that to a great extent the supplies donated through Catholic Relief Services-National Catholic Welfare Conference were failing to accomplish the good they should with undernourished babies. The mothers didn't know how to use the milk powder, butter oil, flour and bulgur for the greatest benefit of the small children. Father Cosgrove acted. He checked with the Sisters at the Maryknoll clinic at Changhua, learned how to put back the butter oil into the non-fat milk powder for babies. He heard how milk prepared with polydrops, a multi - vitamin formula. would make up for the deficiencies in a baby's diet. TWO YEARS For two years this veteran of the China missions, for merly a priest in South China, has been operating two nutrition clinics in his parish. "Here in the town of Yuan Lin we have 'graduated' over a hundred babies in the past two years. When they had completed the

course they were normal, healthy babies." "Many of these mothers come many miles each week," Father Cosgrove remarked. "They realise what good we do for the children." Since commencing the
work, Father Cosgrove has shown 15 other priests of Taichung diocese how to operate similar clinics. Each week, throughout Taichung, thousands of undernourished babies benefit from the charity of these priests with the aid of C.R.S.-N.C.W.C. supplies. Each year hundreds of rehabilitated babies "graduate." -. At present,. Father Cosgrove has 130 babies registered at the Yuan Lin town clinic, and 60 babies registered at the Ta Tsun village clinic some ten miles away. "If I see that a baby is undernourished, I accept it right away, no questions asked. The vast majority of the babies have non-Catholic parents."

There will be three orchestral concerts, two being Promenade Concerts by the W.A. Symphony Orchestra under Farnsworth Hall with the pianist, Lance Dossor, as soloist. These are more conventional programmes but well varied; they include a Borodin symphony, Dvorak's Fourth, Rachmaninov's Second Piano Concerto and Liszt's Hungarian Fantasy. FITTING ENDING The third orchestral concert will be a performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, a fitting ending to Farnsworth Hall's term as ABC Director of Music. Three other performances complete the tally for the Festival, apart from the ballet season. On January 9, William Herbert and Stephanie James will give the enchanting Schubert song cycle "The Maid of the Miller." On January 23 the University of Adelaide Wind Quartet will join with Patrick Brislan, horn, and Lance Dossor, piano, to give a concert of wind works. On February 8, Pauline O'Connor will give a piano recital. Whatever complaints may be made of the 1965 Festival, the committee must be given the fullest praise for initiative and courage. —H.T.G.
A Happy Romp At Playhouse
BACKSTAGE..
with De Strave
A
MAN whose name has
always given him a lot of trouble and amusement will arrive in Perth this Saturday. He is Australia's leading stage producer, ROBIN LOVEJOY, who will produce a professional cast in "Othello" for the Festiva) of Perth. Mr. Lovejoy did not use his own name for some of his early stage work. The reason — "It sounded so made up and phony!" He said that lots of his early theatre contacts used to call him Mr. Merryweather or something like that — and one old actor at a party seriously called him Robin Goodfellow all through the evening. "So I thought it better in my early days to just call myself Neil Clark for some of my work," he said. 7
THEATRE TRENDS
Mr. Lovejoy rejoined the Elizabethan Theatre Trust last year after spending some time studying theatre trends in the U.S.A. under the terms of a fellowship from the Harkness Foundation of New York. He has produced over sixty professional productions and such artists of international repute who have come under his direction include Dame Judith Anderson, Paul Rogers, Margaret Rutherford, Robert
THE VOICE "Is it because many of them are mainly busy radio actors? Not always. So many radio players are confused when they get on stage, though. Is is any wonder? They're on the run from station to station—an Irishman at 10, a Scot at noon, a hillbilly at 3, a bush drunk at 5—and always acting with only one part of the personality—the voice." He said that this technique of acting only with the voice makes it difficult for them to achieve any sort of real character identificaSpeight and Sophie Stewart. tion on stage—and yet many In last year's Adelaide of them have to try because Festival of Arts he produced of the TV opportunities.

THERRY REVUE
Margaret Hammond plays Cleopatra in the Therry Society revue "The First 400 Tears". The headgear which is worn by Margaret was made by producer Paul de Lano from newspapers, cardboard and pipe cleaners. The revue, which pays 'tribute' to William Shakespeare's 400th birthday can be seen at St. Mary's Hall, Leedervil le from December 10- 12 and 17-19.
I UNDER the able chairmanship of James Bailey, "PLAYHOUSE GAIETIES" is presented in true Victorian music hall style. Directed by Edgar Metcalfe, it consists of the melodrama "The Drunkard," written by W. H. Smith and a Gentleman, and a number of lively songs from the gaslight era. All are well done. The production, although a little slow, has style, wit, charm and much good humour and good performances are turned in by most of the cast. In "The Drunkard," the villain of the piece, Lawyer Cribbs, is cleverly played by James Beattie, who relishes in his evil doings. The victim of Cribbs' trickery is Edward Middleton. In this role Vic Hawkins has zest, but lacks conviction. Gabrielle Acres makes her Playhouse debut as Mary Wilson, the distraught wife, whom she portrays with a finely judged blend of pathos and innocence. The evening's entertainment, when it reverts to the music hall of sixty or more years ago, does so wholeheartedly. Many of the cast, particularly Joan Bruce, sing the popular numbers with life and obvious ,enjoyment. A word of praise must also go to the audience who joined in the singing in true music hall manner. Indeed, "Playhouse Gaieties" is a happy romp on the Playhouse Stage.—D.T.

COUNCIL RADIO SERIES
BARE LINE IN THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER A MONTH OR TWO AGO TO SAY THAT PAULINE O'CONNOR, WAS TO APPEAR IN THE 1965
FESTIVAL OF PERTH DID LITTLE TO DISPEL THE MISTS WHICH
On January 6, The Australian Broadcasting Commission will begin a series of four radio programmes on the Third Session of the
SHROUDED THE CAREER OF ONE OF THE MOST REMARKABLE MUSICIANS THAT PERTH HAS PRODUCED. Her native city has seen nothing and heard very little of Pauline O'Connor for the last half-dozen years since she won an Italian Govern• ment scholarship to study under Michelangeli, Italy's greatest pianist. It comes as a pleasant shock to realise that she has already gone farther in establishing herself as a concert artist than any other native-born West Australian —Eileen Joyce, with whom she will nndoubtedly be compared, was born in Tasmania. Michelangeli was so impressed with his pupil that, after two or three years, he appointed her his assistant teacher at the International • Pianist Academy at Turin. Her concert career began in a modest way in 1961 when the music critic of La Nazione said: "She is an artist richly endowed with an excellent instrumental technique and an unusually soft touch, uniting the force and penetration of a lively and attentive personality." The newspaper La Sicilia made the same comment on : touch and technique, when she played in Sicily the following year, with the added remark that here was a pianist of the first rank. MAJOR CENTRES
By 1963, she was playing in the major musical centres of Italy, in Naples, Milan and Bologna, as well as Turin. She was invited to play at no fewer than three international music festivals held in Italy. The acclamations of criticis began to
multiply — and they began to change. I Resto del Carlino said I much the same as the critics of 1961 and 1962, namely, "She is clearly in possession of a perfect technique of concert class and of precise rhythm." The critic of La Nazione, however, who was the first to praise Pauline two years earlier, was beginning to say something very different. "Miss O'Connor, who played the Mozart concerto, K453, was shown to be a great artist with a secure and profound attention to the musical text, -together with an inner and convinced attention to communicate." In other words, this pianist has reaches the stage when touch and technique are subordinated to interpretation; to that comment we might dare to add that this is a sign of that "world class" which we so glibly claim for our promising artists and which hardly any deserve. It is significant that she was playing Mozart, whose piano concertos are on a plane above those of other composers; they are relatively easy to play, but extremely difficult to interpret and satisfactory performances are lamentably rare. FIRST CLASS A brief extract from the
critic of Il Messaggero at about the same time speaks of "extreme clearness and exemplary limpidness," both characteristics of a firstclass Mozart style.
To round off the quotations of music .critics, here is what the Giornale di Brescia said recently: "Pauline O'Connor, whom we have already heard many times, reconfirms the quality of touch and an infinite variety of nuances all perfectly controlled and used to construct a fluent and convincing discourse." In the meanwhile, her reputation had reached outside the confines of Italy when she won first prize in International the Petroff Contest at Bologna. This is one of the major competitions in Europe and has led to a concert tour of Czechoslovakia, where she plays in Prague, one of the great musical centres of Europe and home of the famous Czech Philharmonic, and other cities. Also, next March, she will make a concert tour of Ireland.
PAULINE O'CONNOR
On February 8, she will give a recital, playing a B flat major sonata by Mozart, Fantasie3 Schumann's stucke Opus 111, Prokofiev's Piano Sonata No. 5 and Theme and Variations Opus 72 by Glazunov.
Both the Concert and recital will be held in Winthrop Hall, which is relatively small, and those readers anxious to hear Pauline O'Connor would be wise to book well in adance.—H.T.G.
The speaker on January 20 will be the Most Reverend Guildford Young of Hobart, and on January 27 Dr. W. Barnett Blakemore of Chicago, U.S.A. It is hoped that the other t wo talks will be given by the Most Reverend James Gleeson of Adelaide, and the Most Reverend Thomas Muldoon of Sydney.
Her appearance at the Festival of Perth will give her an opportunity to play
EERIER
for all the people who were so generous with their time
and money to I-_21p her in the early days.
THIS PROPERTY IS BEING
GENEROUS OFFER Further, she has donated her fee for her piano recital on February 8 to the Bursary Fund of the Music Council so as to help other young musicians to study overseas. Her first appearance will be on January 30 in the sixth of the Bach concerts when she will play the D minor keyboard concerto.
Second Vatican Council. The programmes will be broadcast on the Second Network (6WN) at 10.15 p.m. and will take the following form:January 6 — The Nature of the Church. January 13 — The Relationships between the Churches. January 20 — The Question of Liberty. January 27 — The Observers View.

Overcame Bad Draw DESPITE a wide marble, Cashmore made short work of the field in the sevenfurlong Advance Handicap ( 1). Again this horse came home stoutly to bring his score to three wins from his last four starts. Given a further distance, he looks like going on with the good work. His breeding and the way he races suggests that staying will be his long suit. Enodalo flashed home run third after being badly placed on the turn. He has improved with each run and maybe thi2 placing could bring him to his top. Shortpriced favourite Count Amber smartly dropped out in the straight.

SHORT -PRICED Credit Card was never out of trouble in the Advance (2) over seven furlongs. At his last start he won a novice in easy fashion, but he now joins the long list of horses who have failed first start when lifted up a grade. Stick tight with this fellow —there are more wins in line for him. The race was won by La Loire, who fought on to just beat pacemaker Luckenough. The event was hardly the punter's "cup of tea," as the lowest price of the three placegetters was 20-1.

Ran About BUT for "running in" down the straight in the six-furlong Forrest Handicap (1), Wellard would have beaten Fortescue Lad by a bigger margin. There were no signs on Saturday of the bad legs this horse is reported to have and he looks like repeating last season's performance, when he won a couple of races at this time of the year. Aldasan, the favourite, was just beaten out of a place. Now that he has had a few runs, six furlongs could be a bit short' for him, as Treen had to ride him along to hold a good position. This could be the reason why he shortened stride in the run home.

The Happy Story Of I The Christmas Cakes
TOY TIME • , .4,...I../
•:„.,<,.,,,4. -.---6.--' ,,,,,,,,,,,x $(1
IT WAS the day before Christmas in a l ittle village in faraway Bavaria. The Christmas trees inside the houses were gaily decorated w ith bright trimmings, and the ai r was fil led with the wonder of Christmas time. In the bakery shop were stacks and stacks of the most delicious little Christmas cakes you ever tasted. "Wunderkuchen," the old man called them. They were made of rich nuts and raisins and spices, and how the boys and girls loved the Wunderkuchen, especially at Chistmas time! These little cakes were cut out in the shape of all kinds of animals — cows, horses, sheep, and some were even shaped like the c amels that carried the Wise Men one night so long ago when they rode out in search of their new king! B USY
TIME
HOW good it smelled inside the bakery, arld how warm it was, and how happy were the people, moving in and out the door! But even at Christmas time there are some who cannot have a Christmas tree, all gaily trimmed with glass decorations and lights; and there are some who can not eat the wonderful cookies filled with nuts and raisins, the Wunderkuchen the old baker has made es pecially for Christmas time! So everyone in the Bavarian village went about his business, carrying packages home. They were very busy, so they could not be blamed that they did not notice Hans, the woodchopper's boy. There would be no Wunderkuchen at his house on Christmas Day. No, there would be no Wunderkuchen, with rich nuts and plump, juicy rai sins at his house in the woods. So he played a bright little tune on his mouth harp and danced a funny little jig to keep his body warm, and tried to pretend he was having a wonderful time, all by himself! But it was growing dark, and the lamplighter was going his rounds, lighting the lamps on the corners. And inside the bakery shop the old baker made ready to close his doors. And he was a little lonesome, too, because even though he was making ready to take home a bag of his Wunderkuchen, he had no Christmas tree upon which to hang the cookies. In that village in B a v a ri a, Wunderkuchen were hung upon the tree. dangling with little red strings. Then after all the gifts were opened and everybody had laughed with delight at seeing their presents, every one was supposed to eat the Wunderkuchen. It was a good sign, everybody said, that all was well within the house for everybody to eat Wunderkuchen together oil Christmas Day. A LITTLE L ONESOME SO the old baker had no one to join him, and no tree at all at his house! All he had was his bag of Wunderkuchen! So he hummed a little song to himself and pretended he was happy But he was a little lonesome and his song had just a touch of sadness in it. So he walked home through the first shadows of Christ mas Eve with just a touch of weariness in him that was unlike the jolly baker. "No Christmas tree," he said to himself, "No Chistmas tree! I might as well not take home these Christmas cookies! They're supposed to be hung on the tree and eaten on Christmas morning so everything will be well in the household!" And the woodchopper's boy, dancing his little jig as he went, walked home, thinking: "Here I have a

RESPONSIBILITY EXPRESSION OF VIEWPOINT CONTRIBUTION OF EXPERIENCE . . . From Women ROME: The appointment of women auditors at the Second Vatican Council, one of their number said here, is a call to women to exercise their responsibility, to give their point of view and contribute their experience in the Church. Rosemary Goldie, executive secretary of the Permanent Committee on International Congresses of the Lay Apostolate, said in an interview that the Council provided an excellent opportunity to develop collaboration among Sisters .and laywomen in the apostolate of the Church. "Sometimes," she said, "there is created the false impression that there are two apostolates in the Church—one for Religious and one for laywomen. s%V.W.WWV.V.V.V.VI * By FATHER JOHN FOLEY 0.Y.Y.V.V.V.V.V.Yeee "But now we have an opportunity to stress a point we all feel deeply—that we are co-operating in the Church's one apostolate. Now we can seek new ways of developing our contributions together in the work of the Church in the modern world." Miss Goldie, 48, is an Australian who has spent the last 19 years in Europe. She has been with the lay aposince committee stolate 1952, gathering material on the theology of the lay apostolate, planning international meetings and advising local groups.

Turning her attention to the discussion of the Church in the modern world, Miss Goldie pointed out that lay people are being drawn much more into thinking of the Church in the world. While admitting that the schema on the Church in the modern world did not and could not give the laity all the answers, she said a new realisation is developing to the effect that the wh'.)le Church, including the laity, must work together to solve the problems of the modern world. The documents of the Council, she said, stress the duty of all to be active in the apostolate. While it is noted, she said, that organisation is not an end in itself, but only an instrument of the apostolate, it is also true that the apostolate

of the Church is essentially a community apostolate. "What should be developed," she said, "is the idea of the diocese as the people of God in a specific area.

CHRISTMAS CARDS: Have HOW THEY GREW you tried this?
Part of the scene of the average home at Christmas is an array of greeting cards, sometimes displayed on the mantelpiece, sometimes strung on a ribbon across the room, or perhaps pinned to a net draped along a wall. Many of these cards are gay and amusing' others are beautiful in themselves, as well as pleasant reminders of friends and relatives. THE VARIETY of Christmas cards is enormous. Some are as plain as a visiting card; others are v ery elaborate, with reproductions of old master"cut-outs" and pieces, many other ingenious devices. Some are prinkled with artificial snow or glitter; indeed, perhaps the most wellknown illustration of a
WHEN your beautiful, " rich, fruity Christmas cake comes out of the oven there's more to do than just admire it if you expect it to stay moist and develop that wonderful flavour. Wrap it right way, tin and all, straight from the oven in a dry tea towel and layers and layers of brown paper. Leave for 24 hours or so, or until quite cold. Then remove from the tin just to check that it hasn't stuck or burnt. Leave the cake in the paper that lined the tin and press the part that extended above the rim of the tin over the top. Wash the tin and dry thoroughly and put the cake back. This time wrap in grease-proof paper with an outside layer of brown paper and a plastic bag or wrapping to enclose the lot. If there's a large enough airtight container around the house, the whole parcel can go into that until the day you take it out to ice and decorate it.
CICWOCICWOMOCMS:WC * By NANCY ALLUM MICVOMICIMCWOCICWM% British Christmas card is a snow-covered country scene with a red-breasted robin and a sprig of holly in the f oreground. Many business firms send out magnificent "prestige" cards, but this practice has been declining in recent years, many of the firms preferring to donate money to some charitable cause. Many of these charitable organisations, too, both international and national, now print their own cards, putting the proceeds of the sales towards research or treatment. Professional and amateur artists often make their owns cards—wood-cuts and lino-cuts are popular for this purpose. Photographers, too, show their skill, with ambitious "exhibition-type" prints as well as with simpler scenic designs.
WHEN TO BRUSH Always brush before the Clothes are hung in the wardrobe. Gritty particles of dust on Clothes worn during the day Will infiltrate the wardrobe and settle on other clothes inside. The "green tinge" on black and dark-coloured fabrics is caused solely by dust that has penetrated the fabric fibres.

It was, however, some time before Christmas cards were put on the market, and they were not common until about 1862. The first cards were simple in design, a robin, or a sprig of holly or mistletoe and a conventional greeting. But year by year they became more and more elaborate, till about 1884 they
reached their peak of ornate decoration. The custom of sending Christmas cards has grown steadily and spread all over the world, until now it has reached mammoth proportions, and the daily post rises by millions during the festive season.

Don't rub fabric with a brush as this would tend to brush in the dirt instead of removing it. Clean brushes between use with an old toothbrush to remove fluff and dust. WHICH TO BUY There are many types of clothes brushes in all shapes and sizes on the market. It is worth keeping several—including one for the glove box in the car. and one near the wardrobe. Brushes are made from either pure bristle or nylon fibres. Large or small pure bristle brushes, though expensive, are more pliable and therefore best suited for all textured, napped, lightweight and woollen fabrics. Nylon clothes brushes are f or useful Particularly brushing dlisty overalls and heavyweight cottons.

Clothes Brushes Are Useful 'INVISIBLE particles of dust and grime, in addito fluff and lint, tend to adhere to our clothes, so a clothes brush is a very handy article to own," says Mrs. Nina Martindale of the Women's Extension Service, New South Wales Department of Ariculture.

THE ORIGINATOR THERE is some uncertainty about the date of the first Christmas card. Some ascribe it to Mr. W. C. T. Dobson, who is said to have sent a sketch symbolising the spirit of Christmas to a friend in 1844, others to Mr. W. M.

—WHERE ARE WE? IN THE WORLD there are 12,500,000 lepers who are without medical care or assistance . In the district of Sialkot, Pakistan, there are 75,000 Christians, but not a single doctor, nurse or the smallest of hospitals to take care of their needs. In all of Pakistan, where there are 90.000.000 inhabitants, there are only 13.000 doctors, 3,500 nurses and 36,000 hospital beds. Two million people die each year just of tuberculosis. In Ghana, Laos, Madagascar, Mainland China and Sierra Leone there is only one doctor for over 20.000. In Afghanistan, French West Africa, Nigeria. Togo and the Sudan there is one doctor per 40.000 people. Yet in the United States, Austria, Belgium, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the U.S.S.R. there is at least one doctor for every 900 people.

KOREA TODAY THE post-war period in Korea, from 1953 to the present time, has been one of unprecedented growth that borders on the miraculous. No other mission territory in the world, including the fastgrowing Church in Africa, can match the rate of growth of the Korean Church. One might search for and give many reasons to explain it, but in the long run one is forced back to the sober truth that there is no real explanation except an abundant grace from God. It would seem that the bitter years of persecution were the time of the sowing. The seed, so freely watered with martyrs' blood, has now grown to harvest. The words of St. Paul come to mind, that one man sows and another reaps the harvest in the field of the Church. This has certainly been the experience of missionaries in Korea. Before the Korean war, the number of converts was steady but not spectacular. Then, when the tide of war ebbed, the free southern half of Korea witnessed a veritable explosion of conversions. Priests were unable to cope with the numbers seeking instruction. Baptisms were numbered in thousands. Mission Vicariates that had a Catholic population of under ten thousand in 1953, have seen the number multiplied many times and swell to 55,000 today. The latest available figures for the whole of South Korea puts the number of Catholics at 628.546, in increase of 53,000 for the year. Two hundred and seventy missionary priests are working in Korea and there are 327 Korean priests. In the seminaries there are 370 major and 406 minor seminarians, so that the future of the Church —which is so dependent on a local clergy—seems assured.
