Asked about prospects, Father Hotchkin replied: "This consultation amplifies our quest for unity among Christians. "As it takes its place with constiltations going on with Anglicans, Lutherans, and others, it will make a distinctive contribution to our overall ecumenical effort." The Pope. in his speech after the Mass. expressed the hope that the new endeavours "will enable us to progress together in identifying the differences and difficulties that still separate our churches and finally to surmount them by a reflection of faith and a docility to the promptings of the Spirit."

with the Church--Read THE RECORD

Metropolitan Meliton of Chalcedon. representing Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarch Dimitrios of Constantinople (Istanbul) celebrated together the 10th anniversary of the rescinding of the anathemas which more than nine centuries ago had driven a wedge between Rome and the venerable churches of the East.

• By Canon WI LL I AM PURDY words into action or at least of provision for words which may heal enduringly. The patriarch of Constantinople (he told Paul and the dignitaries assembled in the Sistine Chapel) announces the setting up of a pantheological Orthodox c ommission for the preparation of theological dialogue with the Church of Rome.

IMPORTANCE OF STATEMENT

At the same time, over in Istanbul, Dimitrios was welcoming a similar Roman delegation heaeed by Cardinal Corrado Ursi of Naples. M etropolitan Wilton. addressing the Pope, reminded him of one of his own stories told at the original ceremony 10 years ago. A rich man offered a sage of ancient Greece a handsome reward to teach him the art of rememllering. The sage replied by offering he rich man an even better reward if he xvol.ld teach him of forgetting.

At the same time, to underline how seriously the leader of Orthodoxy will take this new step. he announced and named the members of a special synodal commission of the ecumenical patiaarchate with the same end in view. who Commentators know what they are talking about have made no bones about the importance of this announcement. 'Reconciliation has entered on a decisive phase. t hey say. Pope Paul expressed his delight in a long speech, but, as he loves to do on such historin occasions, he produced to the surprise of everybody a dramatic symbolic gesture. He knelt down and k issed the foot of the visiting Eastern metropolitan. somewhat to the latter's consternation.

MORAL THAT IS NEEDED

THE POPE'S GESTURE

The moral was one needed at Florence in that far-off winter. It is needed in oui own ecumenical enterprise, and in many places in the world where men cry peace and there is no peace Christmas is a time to remind us that true peace is no matter of words— 't is the Oft of the word made flesh. The metropolitan of Chalcedon brought news of the translation of

Older people, who remember the Vatican of 40 or 50 years ago, the first years of the Lateran Treaties, will recall that it was the custom to kiss the Pope's foot at a papal audience. This was one of many features of the historic pomp surrounding the pontifical court. It expressed much of what the Greeks (themselves no strangers to resented had pomp) about the papacy nearly a tho-sand years ago.

R EMEMBERING, FORGETT:NG

•••••••••••••~0411.001.041 0414141,~ ,

Pope Paul VI has stripped off many of the minor trappings of this pomp. It is a longtime since anybody has knelt to kiss the Pope's foot, but here was the Pope himself kneeling to kiss the foot of the patriarch's representative.

"ONLY A GREAT MAN" "Only a great man could so humble himself.remarked one Athenian journalist. "Only a saint," amended Metropolitan Meliton himself. A memorable day in the history of ecumenism, and, like all such. an event which must shift, in various degrees, the total ecumenical pattern. The Orthodox world is no longer a series of ancient churches looking to the past and left behind by history. It is present in growing numbers in the New World, in Australia, Africa and America. Practicing the art of forgetting may bring consequences unforgettable.

"A GROWING COVENANT" To narrow the gap, the Church must ask itself how it could help sustain the love life of the couple in order to en the "frightening disparity" between the philosophy and practice of marriage, the priest said. Father Finnegan, a selfdescribed "centrist" on the issue of marriage theology, said that conservatives would resist change and ignore the contributions of behavioral science in deciding annulment cases, and liberals would undermine the permanency of marriage. The ideal of marriage as a permanent relationship could still be realised while at the same time admitting that it was a growing covenant rather than an ironclad contract. Father Finneg,an said.

OUT OF THE PAST No. 10

•

It was the period of Elgar's "Pomp and Circumstance" music, "Land of Hope and Glory," etc.

When Patrick Joseph Clune became fourth Bishop of Perth, on St. Patrick's Day, 1911, as this and previous pictures in the series show, the people of Perth decked out in their finest clothes and presented a magnificent display of the prosperity which gold had brought to W.A., and particularly to Perth. This picture, donated by Miss Monica Bogue, of Nedlands. recalls for us the grand scene in front of the Terrace C.B.C. on that day sixty-four years ago. • If you happen to have a photograph, drawing or painting of an event or one portraying a priest. Religious or member of the laity in connection with W.A. Catholic history prior to 1920, please contact the Archdiocesan Archivist, Father Martin Newbold, at the Church Office, or telephone 25 9177 or 67 7552, to donate or loan the item for copying. Yours could well be the only copy now in existence, no matter how common it once was.

WHAT WAS MEANT WAS . ..

An unidentified gremlin full of Christmas glee seems to have influenced the printing of last week's article Out of the Past No. 9 (The Record, December 25). Readers, we hope, got some amusement out of the faux pas, which resulted, but, for the historical record, three of the more mystifying paragraphs with omitted words in brackets follow here: "The majority of the problems being faced today in the community were present at some stage in the 'good old days' when such things (were supposed not to) have happened." Let all parish councillors relax. The second fault was in the paragraph: "The one everyone though(t) would be a nun or priest gets married outside the Church, and (the one who) misses Mass (returns to the Faith), becomes chairman of the parish council and leader of the laity in the district." No new historical fact was being revealed — only a few words left out or misplaced in the paragraph: "Even as the foundations of our Christian Faith were being laid by the Birth of Christ, we find the shepherds were coming to worship Him (whilst soon afterwards the soldiers were out after the Holy Innocents) and Herod was plotting to have them killed."

GUIDELINES FOR VISITING THE TERMINALLY ILL

ST. LOUIS (N.C.). — A Jesuit priestphysician who is an associate professor of psychiatry at the Harvard Medical School has produced guidance for the treatment of terminally ill patients.

The priest, Father Edwin Cassem, said that his experience in treating terminally ill patients had taught him that there were several things that they sought from those around them. These were, he said: some show of concern; aid in finding physical and mental comfort; communication; visitation by children and grandchildren to show continuity of life; some sign of family cohesion; perseverance of the family to the end; cheerfulness; a relaxed manner on the part of visitors, and competence on the part of those who serve the patient.

'MUST BE REAL' "Os the matter of

showing some concern for the patient." Father

Cassem said, "the concern can be non-verbal and frequently it is. "But it must be real. If the patient says something about his illness and you pause before answering, it can show the patient that you have feelings about his or her illness. "One doctor was examining a patient and came to a dead spot which indicated that cancer had spread and the 'Damn'. said, doctor Then the doctor said, 'Excuse me' and the patient told the doctor it was all right.

"IT'S NICE TO KNOW" " 'As a matter of fact it's nice to know that you care,' the patient said. This can be the kind of reaction that the patient appreciates." Death It admittedly a "morbid subject" aed communication about the patient's condition should he carried on with great

care, Father Cassem said. "Communicating with the patient is not easy," he said. "Some people -do not want to talk about their condition. "It is not nearly so important what you tell the patient as it is what the patient tells you that is important. "That is one of the most important things 1 have learned in working with the sick.

TEARS AND GRUFFNESS "Patients like cheerful people," he said. "They don't want you to act as if you were at a wake. "One right a patient has is to be treated as one of the living. "Patients do. not mind if you show emotion. If your eyes fill with tears for a moment, that's line. "But they don't like someone who is uptight ail the time.

"Patients also have a right to competence. They do not mind a doctor who is gruff but good at this job as much as one who does not seem to know what he is doing."

P ATIENrs VIEWPOINT ln addition to the points that the patients made. Father Cassem said, he had discovered t wo points of his own. "And the first one I discovered is that the patient wants you at some time to respond to how bad the situation is for him or her. "It's fine to be cheerful and the patient wants that, but they also want a sign that the person serving them or visiting them has an understanding of what they are going through." The second discovery Father Cassem made was that "you have to appreciate the good that you come across and the good is the patient. "The person, the memories of that person — that is the good that you come across," he said.

Eillf RITE OF PENANCE

Ten years ago the 21st General Council of the Church closed in Rome and it was made clear that a period of renewal was to bring a new vision and mission to the Church of today. Some have thought that renewal and reform applied only to the externals of the Church; but even the renewal of the eucharistic liturgy has meant to go into the heart. So with the other sacraments. The last of the Sacraments to be renewed following the decrees of the Second Vatican Council is that of Penance. The new rite may be used in Australia after March 3, and will be obligatory for use after November 28. The rite will have far-reaching effect in the Church because it touches personally on each individual's commitment to Christ and His Salvation. On these pages are some of the Introduction to the new Rite (with comment by The Record, in italics). The first part of the Introduction, along with the text of the prayers for the new form of individual confession, apeared in the Christmas issue of The Record, copies of which are still available at this office. It is recommended that teachers, parish liturgy committees and others take advantage of the present lift out series in order to be equipped not Only for the change of style in going to confession that will be involved, but even for the structural alteration of confessionals that will be a necessary accompaniment.

Europe has an image that is all of its own, principally because its skyline is dotted with the spires of churches. It is not a merely theoretical argument asking whether the churches are full or empty. It is a proclamation of the truth that the men who shaped those cities saw a church as a living monument in the midst of everyday life. Europe has discovered that its churches are the drawcards for tourists. But not only to the big cathedrals and basilicas do the people go. Anywhere the bus or train stops, the tourist finds himself looking at a church steeple; his curiosity calls him to look inside and it is always a gem of one sort or another. The Catholic World Tour is not a religious tour in terms of a pilgrimage. But it is Catholic because it will look at the many places that have become significant in the faith and history of Catholics. The local people won't dress up just because they have heard that you are coming. But like their churches, they have prized the customs and ways of the past. The older viVage men and women have tucked away their festive dresses that ore worn on special days. A tour is not just a jaunt through a deed past; it is an experience of the living history that has been handed down.
