Mrs. Barbara Kinna dies Those who choose not to suddenly; severe loss to parent be s 'must maintain Catholic family welfare The Catholic Family Welfare has suffered a severe loss in the sudden death last week of Mrs. Barbara Kinna. She not only helped plan and set up the Catholic Bureau, but her contribution to the Department of Community Welfare is said to have changed the whole face of the Government's welfare provisions in this State. She was originally from Singapore and later did her initial training in social work in Sydney, following up with postgraduate studies at the London School of Economics. She then returned to Singapore she where founded and directed the Singapore Children's Society for twelve years. Returning to Australia, she had the distinction of

being the first social worker to be employed by the Child Welfare Department, now the Department for Community Welfare. After her unique contribution to that body, she joined the beginnings of the Catholic social work body at 77 Saint George's Terrace. She began work with the Catholic Immigration Office and later joined the Catholic Family Welfare Bureau as grant-inaid social worker, and as senior social worker. Among her many contributions in this field were her help to migrants, family counselling, child adjustment and counselling, advice and

support to Castledare and Clontarf, assistance in Broome to co-ordinate welfare groups, assistance in. the establishment of the Bunbury Christian Family and Ethnic Service, assistance at Wandering after the departure of the religious personnel. Father Barry Hickey, Director of the Catholic Family Welfare Bureau said that Mrs. Kinna was an extremely competent social worker, and a respected person throughout the social work field. He said that she was noted for her enthusiasm, creativity drive, and friendliness. She leaves a husband and two daughters.

contact with children'

MIAMI (NC). — Those who choose not to be parents must maintain contact with children or the future will have no reality for them, the famous anthropologist Margaret Mead, said here. Many people today do not want to accept the responsibilities parenthood involves, she said in a keynote address to a national consultation on young adult ministry sponsored by the National Council of Churches. "Now there are many young people who do not intend to get married, or if they do marry, do not intend to become parents. "There's a whole portion of our population that could be termed. Not Yet Parents, or No Longer Parents, or Never Have Been Parents." Emphasising that there was room for all these lifestyles, Miss Mead said: "Those who do not choose parenthood are free for a wider responsibility. "Free from the need to have to gain material goods. Free to spend half their time, if they want, or even more in doing things for other people." But those "who choose not to be parents must maintain contact and close relationships said. to children or the future will not have any "He had a profound ef- reality for them."

Society would not go on with a situation "in which people get married miscellaneously, get divorced a year later and present us with a nation of children from broken homes," Miss Mead said. She emphasised "that parenthood is a particular, specialised responsibility while children are young and that people who enter parenthood are accepting certain responsibilities and certain losses of freedom for both men and women." The present time was "probably the worst period in history to be a parent of a teenager and it's the worst period in history to be a teenager with parents on the other side of the gap," Miss Mead said. "We need to find out where young people of today are going. They are all over the place — in school, out of school, in marriage, out of marriage. "The old definitions don't hold today.

"So we need new definitions of responsibility. "Young people have to provide those definitions themselves. "People are faced with the possibility of doing things but that doesn't mean we will." During her formal presentation, the noted anthropologist outlined several concepts and definitions which she said needed to be changed. "We divide society up between the people in school and the people who got out. "One of the most important things I think we have to do is get rid of the notion that there's a great difference between people in school and out of school; to get rid of the idea you have to get as much education as you can because you're never going to get another chance." Commenting on older adults returning to school, Mead said that she wasn't sure "that means something very good because universities have suddenly discovered older people are a source of income."

English Failure from p.1

open to exploitation by the para-militaries. "The absence of political initiative on the part of the administration combines with the other elements to generate in people a sense of hopelessness. "It is even more true at the beginning of 1977 than it was when the Northern Catholic bishops said it in 1971: 'Far-reaching political initiatives must be sought as a matter of greater urgency if those who advocate violence are to be deprived of their chief ally — despair.' "The greatest economic problems facing our own government and politicians here must not be a reason for letting the Northern problem take a subordinate place."

to be sure that the young people who decide against parenthood and for other forms of responsibility never lose closeness to children. "The best way to do this is to build threegeneration communities where they are close both to older people and close to children so that at the same time they embrace a wider freedom than parenthood they're also close to the past and close to the future." During the 1950s, people were expected to be parents no matter what, said Miss Mead. Those who couldn't have children of their own "were expected to adopt at least four wellborn, illegitimate children of impeccable parentage. "I estimated, at one point, that we needed 5 million well-born illegitimate children to fill the need." She continued: "If you look to the 1950s, when we were the most married country in the world — not always married to the same person, but steadily married — you see that our aim was to be married from puberty to senility."

RECORD

Dangerous eight minutes of the day in marriage Marriage Encounter's chief psychologist, Dr. John Hack, warns of those eight minutes during the day when a marriage can easily be wrecked. The time it takes to boil a couple of eggs is all it needs to put your marriage in grave jeopardy. "There are eight minutes each day when the average marriage is at its greatest risk," Dr. Hack, a 40-year-old with two children says. "They are divided into two four-minute periods and a thoughtless or inconsiderate word at these times can trigger off, at best a pretty active row, and at worst a marriage crisis."

FIRST DANGER SPOT The first danger period, he says, is apparently the first four minutes of breakfast — "an estimated 65 per cent of family squabbles take place at breakfasttime." Dr. Hack believes that the reason is partly biological. The average woman's body, it seems, takes longer to "wake up" than the average man's. "A man can be fully operational 10 minutes or less after waking up to half hour," he explained. And he has found that during this tempestuous four minutes there is usually an antagonist who is alert and awake . . . and a victim who is sleepy and uncommunicative. The answer to this, he maintains, is to "eat up and shut up."

THE ANSWER Or, to put it a little more scientifically, "to refuse to respond to negative situations," and to make it a rule to never even attempt to discuss your problems over the breakfast table. If you are one of nature's sleepyheads, wake up a little earlier, and allow your body to "shift gears" from sleeping to waking before you actually get out of bed. A cup of tea brought to the bedside by a solicitous husband won't do any harm, either!

AFTER WORK BEWARE The second danger period is the first four minutes when the couple meet again after the day's work because "in this period," Dr. Hack told me, "the wife is usually the aggressor. "She often feels sub-consciously that her husband takes refuge in work to avoid the humdrum responsibilities of the house, and when he comes home she lets him know it." So a man who returns home with a headache and still ruffled after a wigging from the boss is likely to be met at the door with: "The washing machine's leaked all over the kitchen floor, there's something wrong with the bathroom light, and what are you going to do about it?"

RESPONDING NEGATIVELY

No wonder, says Marriage Encounter, in what is probably the under-statement of the year, a man is likely to "respond negatively." Which means he'll probably kick a pile of t ops out of his path and demand to know: -why you can't at least tidy things up a bit beforeI get home." Of course this is no answer to anything, and

before four minutes are up they'll be blazing away at each other, in the midst of a row which will probably take days to patch up.

BOTH SIDES TELL Nearly as bad is the wife who, before the poor man is even through the door, gives him a blow-by-blow account of how she was overcharged for a tin of baked beans, what she told the shopkeeper, and what he said to her. Another approach pretty well guaranteed to spark off a row is to ask a husband what kind of day he's had, and when he begins to tell you, to rush out in the middle to put the peas on. And any complaints about how awful your day has been will invariably result in an "I've had the worst day" competition which will soon turn into a row about what an easy life the other partner has . . .

PROBLEM FOR MOST "Our research has shown that up to 75 per cent of serious marriage rows can be traced back to these two periods," Dr. Hack says. "They are the times when we are mentally and physically at our lowest ebb. We are feeling negative and on the defensive and unable to respond positively to any challenge." The majority of rows are, he says, sparked off on Monday mornings, when the prospect of the forthcoming week's work is particularly depressing, and Friday nights, when husbands feel especially in need of a rest.

NEVER ON WEDNESDAYS "Surprisingly, the evenings, particularly Wednesdays, are more hazardous than the mornings," says Dr. Hack. "And Sunday evening needs watching too." His advice is never to try to engage a husband in breakfast-time conversation — that's simply begging for trouble. And in the evening, silently usher a husband to his favorite chair, keep the children out of his way, give him the evening paper, pour him a beer or a coffee, and leave him in peace for a few minutes.

ORDINATIONS ARE UP BUT VOCATIONS ARE DOWN ROME (NC). — Ordinations are down but vo-

cations are up, according to figures released here by Polish Church officials. The Rome office of the Polish Bishops' Conference reported that the sizable decrease in 1978 ordinations was the delayed effect of changes made in Poland's secondary education system six years ago. The officials explained that six years ago the Government began requiring secondary school students to study one additional year before graduating. Since Poles must complete secondary school before beginning six years of seminary training, many young men vitio would have entered the seminary in 1970 had to wait an extra year. Last year Polish bishops ordained 477 men, while in 1975 the total was 606. Polish Church officials here emphasised that the number of students in major seminaries in Poland rose significantly in 1976 — from 4,388 in 1975 to the current 4,705.

Visitors are welcome to browse among reference material. There are six Australian and 12 overseas magazines and liturgical periodicals that can be viewed. Visits are especially welcome from parish liturgy groups and leaders, teachers, priests and acolytes. During 1977 it is hoped to increase this contact with parishes. Many will welcome the news of the arrival of copies of "The General Instruction on the Roman Missal". This is the charter and textbook for the present liturgy of the Mass. It is indispensable reading for all people actively involved in liturgical work. So far this material has been available only in the expensive altar missals. Now it is on sale in handy booklet form. The Liturgy Centre has 100 copies coming to hand and will keep the supply flowing as long as the demand continues. With the approach of Lent, it is expected that parishes will make further efforts to establish more firmly the understanding and practice of the new Rite of Penance. At the Centre, a limited number of the excellent packet "Programme for Renewing the Rite of Reconciliation" are still available. Also available is the U.S. Bishops Study Text, "Rite of Penance" that has proved most popular.

Society in forefront of the battle in an irreligious world The St. Vincent de Paul Society was in the Forefront of the battle to show an irreligious world that Christ is alive, National president of the Society, Mr. E. Bacon, of Sydney, said. He was speaking at a recent meeting of society members in Hobart to promote and plan distribution of the society's new Australian manual. • Mr. Bacon told members that in the time of Christ, as in the time of St. Vincent de Paul, and of Frederic Ozanam, there was a great weakening in acceptance of God, loss of faith. and ereat moral decline. "We all know how great is the decline in our own age," he said. "So the Church looks to the collaboration of the laity, such as in membership of the St. Vincent de Paul Society, as being in the forefront of the battle to irreligious the show world that Christ is alive, that God loves them, that men and women like themselves love people because it is a fundamental, outward expression of Christianity." Mr. Bacon said that the fact that the Vincentian apostolate was an

integral part of Christ's Church was emphasised in the Vatican Council's Decree on the Laity, which showed that the Church wanted Vincentians to bring the message of Christianity to people by their example — only through the laity who live near them." In recommending the new Australian manual of principles and practices to members, Mr. Bacon said it should be used in conjunction with gospels, because, the "the fundamental aims and principles of our Society are to be found in the life of Christ. "Carry out these principles", he stressed, "by loving the poor, the despised, the sick, the unwanted. "Take their hand as St. Vincent de Paul did, give them a warm greeting and, above. all, introduce yourselves with a smile because you want to be their friend. "Conversely"; he warned. "don't be officious, gloomy or stand off-ish".

Thursday, January 20, 1977

Monsignor J. T. McMahon says:

"IT'S THE MASS THAT MATTERS"

That famous phrase was written by Augustine Birrell, one-time Chief Secretary for Ireland. Having spent some years in Ireland, Birrell was asked why the faith of the Irish was so loyal and warm today "in spite of dungeon, fire, and sword".

The answer, that came from a close observation of the lives of the Irish people, was: "It is the Mass that matters; it is the Mass that makes the difference, so hard to define, so subtle is it, yet so perceptible, between a Catholic country and a Protestant one, between Dublin and Edinburgh. between Havre and Cromer." A remarkable evidence of the devotion of the Irish priests and people to the Mass may be seen in the village of Moneen, in County Clare. The landlord. Protestant Wesby. who owned the greater part of the Clare peninsula, from Kilrush to Loop Head, the northern jaw of the Shannon River, would not allow a chapel to be erected on any part of his estate. Up to the famine years the priests said Mass in the homes of the farmers. The Great Hunger which began in 1845 and lasted till 1851 was one of the worst in history. With the famine came the "soupers", who offered hot soup to the hungry parents and children if they gave up going to their homes for Sunday Mass. The people refused the bribe and no home would deny the priest the use of their humble cabin. The landlord's agent, Marcus Keane, warned the tenants that if they allowed Mass to be said

in their homes, down would come the roof. It was no idle threat. One of the last to have their roof down were the Brennan family, whose father was a pilot on the Shannon River. They did not put up the roof again but emigrated to Queensland. For some years Mass was said under a shelter of sheets draped over the shafts of a farmer's cart, but the wind blew out the candles during the winter months and the people could not see the priest.

"THE ARK"

priest, parish The Father Michael Meehan, got an idea from watching the bathing boxes on wheels at the popular seaside resort of Kilkee. He requested the local carpenter, Owen Collins, to build an enlarged box on wheels with glass sides, and an open front. When finished it was drawn by horses through the streets to a site on the banks of the Shannon River at Kilbaha, where it remained for five years, from 1852 to 1857. It was a triumphal procession, all the people joining in, and as it moved along the road, the people left their homes to welcome it. The box on wheels was quickly named "The Ark" by the delighted people, and an "Ark" it proved itself for five years. The landlord prosecuted Father Meehan for having a "nuisance" on the public road. The lawyers in the court had to send for a dictionary to learn the meaning of the word "nuisance" and the resident magistrate,

McCullagh, decreed that the "Ark' was no nuisance according to the definition. So for five years, in rain or shine, the people flocked around the Ark each Sunday until 1859 when the landlord, seeing that he was defeated grudgingly gave permission to erect a chapel at Today the Moneen. Ark is a precious relic of the faith of the people, enshrined in a devotional church with an excellent glass window stained priest the showing preaching to the people from the open door of the Ark.

OUT OF REACH

The Ark is now raised up out of reach of the pen-knives of souvenir-hunters who wish their emigrating children to take a bit of it with them. The Ark is a strangelooking box . on long, projecting shafts which enables it to be moved from the wind and rain on this site, exposed to the Atlantic storms. It has two sides of glass so that the priest can be seen by the congregation. At the back of the box is a sturdy shelf and a niche holds a statue of the Sacred Heart. The sides of the box have two iron hooks which support the door that sealed up the box when not in use. The four small wheels. like those of a wheelbarrow, now lie inside the box. It is roofed with tarred canvas, such as the fishermen use to cover their curraghs. In 1935 on my visit to Moneen, County Clare, I met Thomas Casey, a retired teacher, who had

served the last Mass at The Ark. He told me his impressions. He said: "At Kilbaha on the River there Shannon were three roads that met near the quay. On a triangle of grass formed by the roads The Ark was placed, and on Sundays it was turned on its wheels to protect the priest from the wind and rain. Both sides were of glass, there was no door, so that the people could see the priest throughout the Holy Sacrifice. On wet days the people brought flat stones from the edge of the Shannon to kneel upon. Father Meehan stood at the open door and it was the finest pulpit ever seen.

IN IRISH "Here, Sunday after Sunday, he instructed, consoled, and encouraged the people in their fight against the `soupers'. He spoke always in Irish, the language of his flock. Crowds came to hear The Sacraments him. were administered there. marriages were celebrated, and children baptized." "It's the Mass that matters." What the sun is to our physical life, bringing light, warmth, and health, and growth, so is the Mass to our spiritual well-being. Let us frequently warm our cold, indifferent, worldlyminded souls at its heat. and guide our lives along its path of golden light. worries and When anxieties harrass us, and despair would abide in our hearts, then let us away to Mass. and facing that sun of our spiritual lives, all the shadows will fall behind us. • NEXT WEEK: Come, O Holy Spirit with us to the Mass.

W.A. tennis queen wins national quest title at Hobart carnival The West Australia contingent acquitted themselves well at the recent Australian Catholic Lawn Tennis Association carnival in Hobart, the most notable success being that of Miss W.A.C.L.T.A., Carol Sanderson who was crowned Miss A.C.L.T.A. T his was W.A.'s first success in the 17-year history of the national competition. An intelligent and at.tractive brunette, Carol's charming personality made her a popular choice by the judges and won the admiration of all those who attended the carnival. Although she was only recently involved with Catholic tennis in this State, Carol's enthusiasm should ensure a long association with the W.A.C.L.T.A. and her experience will be invaluable to future Miss W.A.C.L.T.A. representatives. Later this year Carol will be entering the Quest of Quests and she must be given an excellent chance of featuring in the final.

QUEENSLAND STRONG Queensland players dominated the tennis section of the carnival when they won the Archbishop Kelly Shield for the aggregate of success in the men's and ladies 'event. Queensland also won the Archbishop Duhig Shield for winning the ladies' section, whereas Victoria were successful in winning the P. J. O'Shea Shield for men. Individually, t h e Queensland players performed well by winning the two individual trophies.

ance by taking off the May Priddis Memorial Trophy for the outstanding lady player. Queensland's top three lady players won selection in the all-Australian side. However, W.A.'s Mary Sayers played fine tennis to gain a berth in that side.seeded at No. 6. The West Australian ladies performed well, losing only two matches throughout the carnival. They finished fourth behind strong the Queensland combination. Western Australia comfortably defeated both New South Wales and South Australia. Victoria and Tasmania recorded victories against W.A. and the match against Queensland was washed out. A depleted men's side were unable to match the ladies' performance and finished sixth. The manager of the W.A. team, Mr. John Messer, considered that the carnival Was a notable success, the highlight being the enjoyable social functions. The organisation of the tennis, he thought, left a little to be desired. However, Tasmania could be excused to a certain extent because they were handicapped by a lack of adequate court facilities. Association members are reminded that the 1977 A.C.L.T.A. carnival will be held in Melbourne during the period December 25 to January 1, 1978. The Allen Park Tennis
