Be a Trappist - and live longer

LONDON. — Trappists seem to be less heart-attack prone than other people, according to a University psychology report. Dr. Bernard Caffrey, Clemson University, studied personality characteristics related to heart disease among both TrapBenedictine and pist monks in America. The former eat neither meat nor eggs, while the latter eat a "typical American diet." Trappists live in seclusion; their fellow religious see much more of the world. Dr. Caffrey kept dossiers on 1,433 monks in 23 monasteries. He found Benedictines to be of the -aggressive, impatient, hurried type, driven by a sense of time urgency. "The Trappists' type is just the opposite. Two out of three heart attack victims are of the Benedictine type."

NEWS IN PARS GERALDTON CLERGY APPOINTMENTS

A third parish, at Rangeway, has been created to serve the people of Geraldton; the other two are at the Cathedral and at Bluff Point. Bishop Thomas recently appointed Monsignor JOHN BARDEN to be parish priest of this area that will include Utakarra, Kojarina and part of Tarcoola; all were formerly part of the Cathedral parish. Monsignor Barden was administrator of the Cathedral parish for the past 13 years; At Rangeway there is an existing school-church and in the near future a new presbytery and church will be built. The new administrator of St. Francis Xavier Cathedral is Father Adrian VAN • KLOOSTER, on loan from Wollongong diocese. Father R. POCOCK, Blessed Sacrament priest, is chancellor and bishop's secretary. Father R. LOWE has transferred from Port Hedland to the Cathedral parish. At South Hedland, a parish that includes Marble Bar and which was once part of Port Hedland parish, Father A. VANNEMAN, Carmelite, is the new parish priest. Formerly stationed at Hilton Park, Fr. Vanneman is on loan to the diocese and during last year was in Geraldton. Another Carmelite, Father Gregory MOORE, who has been acting parish' priest of Northampton during Father M. Moffatt's absence on holiday leave, has been appointed parish priest of Tom Price. Father Moore is a former parish priest of Hilton Park. The retiring parish priest of Tom Price, Father James NIHILL, is to return to his home diocese of Sandhurst from which he was loaned to Geraldton for three years, 18 months of which he spent in Geraldton and the remainder in Tom Price. While Father Keith SPAIN, of Mingenew, is on holiday leave, his place will be taken by Father ODERIC, Franciscan, on loan to Geraldton diocese for 1976.

At the University of W.A. she took a Bachelor Science degree. She was made a member of the Australian Trained Nurses Association and the Australian Institute of Medical Technology.

TREATMENTS

Her reputation in the treatment of diabetes has led to invitations to attend three of the tri-ennial congress on the subject in Sweden. Israel and Argentina. Following an accident in 1961, Sister Philomena moved to Rivervale and has made herself available to a steady strettm of people seeking her assistance through her interest in migraine and vitamin's and minerals in the human system.

Catechists' gathering at Moora Thirty Catechists and parents from various areas of the parish, gathered at Moora for a day of instruction last Monday. The programme was under the direction of Sisters Margaret Mary and Justina, from the Catholic Education Office. Film strips were shown and discussion was held on the updating of methods of teaching religion to children. Father Pat Ahern said that with twelve schools situated in various areas of the parish, it was essential to have lay helpers. Ideally, the school instruction should supplement the example and instruction of parents in the home. Various books and other aids were distributed to catechists and parents to help them in their Work. • Moora catechsts Pictured at last week's meeting with Sisters Margaret Mary and Justina, (centre), from the Catholic Education Office.

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 Wcrld 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 village men and women have tucked away their festive dresses that are worn on special days. A tour is not just a jaunt through a dead past; it is an experience of the living history that has been handed down.

RECORD

* OUT OF THE PAST - NO. 17 • The present parish Church of Corpus Christi at Mosman Park was opened on October 19, 1964. Fifty years previously the first Mass Centre had been opened nearby in the Presentation Sisters new high school. Until the Mosman Park parish was erected in 1938 the area was served from Cottesloe. Father Richard O'Neill, P.P. was the first priest to say Mass for the few inhabitants. The high school building pictured here was blessed and opened by Archbishop Clune on November 2, 1914. Some Sister has written on the back of the photo loaned by the Presentation Sisters that the building was blessed on the "Feast of All Saints — being a Sunday dedicated to Divine Providence," Before the erection of this building part of the recently demolished Iona Convent was used for class TOMS.

After being used as a church-school for twenty five years the high school was taken over as St. Aidani's parish church in 1939. When the present church was completed, St. Aidan's became, and remains today, the Iona College Hall. A convent tradition provides a reasonable explana, tion of the names Iona and St. Aidan. This account suggests that Iona Convent got its name because Bishop Gibney likened the largely uninhabited area to an island between the Swan River and the Indian Ocean. St. Aidan, although sometime later, was like St. Columba, a monk of the famed monastery on the Scottish Island of Iona. 0 Photos and other historical items plus reminiscences are always welcome at the Perth Archdiocesan Archives.

Christian faith and its meaning in the Catholic school • A team from the Catholic Pastoral Institute has recently compiled a set of catechetical guidelines for teaching religion in primary grades.. The introduction to the guidelines contains general notions on the meaning of Catholic education. The first part of the text is reproduced here. Quotations are from sources such as the General Catechetical Directory and the Documents of Vatican II.
