"without gloss" as Francis kept saying.

Old traditions were sundered, dew yet being founded. To this confused time, c arne Francis as an instrument of the Lord's peace. For indifferent, nominal Christianity, he substituted the real thing: life lived according to the spirit of the Gospel. To a bored age, he gave the fervour of the mystic love of Christ, that t ransfixed him on Mt. AlVerna. To a materiailst society. he preached. the love of 'My Lady Poverty': for Christ was poor. • Our age suffocating in pollution of it affluence-, and greedy misuse of the earth's materials, has much to learn from this: like survival. To a brutalised society, he sowed love for hate; he alone in the Crusades, preached Christ's love to t he Saracens: he alone returned unscathed. Today's paranoiacs have little time left to listen, that in brotherhood alone is peace. So his Order was to be an Order of Brothers. A t the end of the aristocratic feudal age. he set
his friars firmly with the people. the serfs, the masses. His followers were not to be of the Majores (upper classes) but the Minores — (lower classes). Thus came the Order
VATICAN CITY (NC). — A small grey bus now takes museum-goers from St. Peter's Basilica, past some sights of the Vatican gardens, to the entrance for the museums and Sistine Chapel.
The journey on foot from St. Peter's to the museum entrance is about one mile. tus fare now is 150 lire — about 13 cents against the very sick lire. It compares favourably with the $3.50 admission for the detailed tour of the gardens, which is given a few. times a week for those who buy a ticket well in advance. As the tiny bus with a seating capacity of 31 pulls away from the foot of steps to the left of the basilica, it passes three Swiss guards on duty at the Gate of the Bells, the entrance to Vatican City. To the left is the modern audience hall used by the Pope for general audiences every Wednesday. on is St. Farther Peter's Sacristy.

And the blinded eyes that looked their last, benedictional time at Assisi, gave a vision of simple faith and hope. in Christ. which reaches out to our faith-enfeebled. doubt-ridden. despairful times. It was in dying that Francis was born to eternal life: and that his spirit was sent forth to bring peace and joy unfailingly to the embittered hearts of men.
Chapel
At the little brown church of St. Stephen, of the Abyssinians, which is pygmy-size alongside the mastodonic basilica a few feet away, the bus turns left and begins to climb to Vatican Hill. It passes the mosaic studio, the administrative offices of the Vatican City-State and the littleused Vatican railroad station. The station's front is decorated with a bas-relief of Elija ascending to heaven in a fiery chariot. To the right Michelangelo's glorious dome is framed in the manicured trees and shrubs of the pontifical gardens. Soon after passing the formally planted terrace of the Vatican art museum. the bus lets its passengers off at the upperlevel ticket counter of the museum. From there begins the visit to the museum and the Sistine Chapel. The museum tour brings visitors back to where they got off the bus for the return trip. The bus. still an experiment, leaves from St. Peter's Square every 30 minutes in the morning and early afternoon.

To love one's neighbour today includes the wish for a better society because sin stains social conditions and institutions as well as individuals. A merely personal bat-
SUCCESS WITH A THOUGHTS ON FIRST PLAY; COLLEGE MOVE JUSTICE could be lodged, say with the Perth Archdiocesan Trust Fund, and the interest being used to support our Social Acdon Team. The archdiocese and our missionary effort could thus benefit at the same time. Is it worth the effort? Certainly. But at the same time it is necessary to cast our cares on the Lord. I am aware that all of us are together engaged in the work I am doing. Even in the Philippines I feel very much part of the local Church of Perth, representing the people who by prayer, work and influence helped me to the priesthood and kept me there.
need for urgent, effective action non - violent through education, moral pressure and community organisations. We must spend hours listening to the little people — with patience: the best test whether we are open to God's voice is whether we are free of bitterness and hatred (anger, however, may have its place). We must seek a Peace of the Risen Lord accompanied by justice and love. There are many young people who have joined the communists in the hills. Many of them learnt from their Christianity to have a thirst for justice for the masses of the poor.
CLASS STRUGGLE
Class struggle is not the message of Christ. The poor are not always better just because they are poor; they too can be selfish minded and oppressive in their own way. But the wealthy who can be generous in their efforts to assist the poor too often treat the symptoms rather than the causes. There has to be a change of heart within all of us. With Archbishop Helder Camara we see the
IN PERTH During my visit to Perth the people have been encouraging in their interest shown in the work of the Church in the Philippines. We can all learn so fulness and spirit of life and community that the poor show often in the midst of sub-human conditions. Prayer is needed. Love is needed — practical and ready to work hard. And it has to be a ministry to the rich as well as the poor — an honest and clear message to the comfortable, and a support and guidance for the poor. Saint Paul said to the slaves: "Hang on and serve the Lord, but if you get a chance to be free — jump." Should not the Church be with them, speaking with true courage as a true prophet?
YOUNG SHOT I know personally
young people who have been shot, tortured and imprisoned because of their concern for true brotherhood. They are not all hard core materialist-atheists but they challenge the Church to respond to the needs of the majority of Her members, to carry on an apostolate in which the rich will stand fairly with the poor. This is not a call to criticise the Church but to love Her with faith and confidence. An initiative for justice and peace on the part of the Church of the Philippines could well change the course of the young searching for ways

tle with sin can reduce religion to the level of "opium of the people"; it does not speak of the life, hope, freedom and justice of God's kingdom. There is a price to pay. applying Christians gospel principles to complex social realities sometimes will even be in conflict. It is a risk that we have to live with, even if the struggle to maintain unity becomes thick. Or would we advise Jesus not to go up to Jerusalem and suffer and die?

BAD NEWS
The grim-mouthed humourless revolutionary is bad news. He does not believe in sin or the power of redemption; he would wipe out, by violence, all economic inequality, and then, he says, human nature will maintain justice. He ensures a change of man:wers but not a change of heart within the community. We don't anticipate changing she economic faze of the country but :;,e want to develop practical models of community building, not just warm spiritual experiences for those with the comfort of a secure income.

derstand that God gave the world to all His people, not just to the advanced and wealthy. Business and administrative skills must be put at the service of ordinary people; if we relate Christ to this work of educating and training then the people (even the Muslims) will get their strength from Him. This work is not "missionary" according to some ideas; by standards of pure efficiency it is not very remarkable. But the wisdom of the board rooms of business has not looked after the welfare of two-thirds of humanity.
FINANCE
It gives us a thrill to see Christian and Muslim farmers running a small mill together, at the cost of long meetings and tiresome working out the detail of its operation and the use of surplus income by unsophisticated people. "Do you use money?" ant asked, Four years ago I used to say no; at present I say yes. Generous help has come from Australia; $16,000 came from Project Compassion and Austcare for refugee work; I am glad to see mention of an increase this year in Project Compassion offerings. With the daily wage in our district less than a dollar and houses able to be built for $50, this sort of aid can go a long way. Other donor agencies have funded our mill and boat.
