"Complete support of parents is vital..."
Record Pope John Paul I I has called on the Church to arouse itself from sleep in the beginning of a new Church year with a massive Advent Encyclical Letter on The Mercy of God. We should be rejoicing that the Holy Father is summoning the whole Church to reflect on such a profound subject but rapid changes in today's style of communication are making the issue of such documents a questionable exercise. The latest Letter is really a substantial small booklet of 83 pages and seven quite forbidding chapters. If the treatment given to the Pope's first encyclical Redemptor Hominis is a guidethis Letter too is destined to be seen by few, read by even less and taken notice by practically no-one. The problem is even more acute because the Vatican authorities have tried to do the right thing. The Apostolic Nunciature in Canberra sent embargoed copies to Catholic newspapers for this week's publication. Summaries of some aspects of the document appear on pages one and two of this issue, but such news summaries and one in The West Australian on Wednesday are poor substitutesforthe original. It is not the task of newspapers to print long heavy texts, ecclesiastical or otherwise. The majority of people now say unashamedly that they do not read columns of type. Where are the alternative channels of cummunication in the Church. Where can a Catholic buy instantlythe important statementsof Pope's Synods and Commissions over the lastdecade or two? The encyclical Humanae Vitae is the most criticised document of the decade but a copy can scarcely be found — especially a copy that has been read. We have one Catholic bookshop serving the whole of Western Australia. The pamphlet racks in overcrowded church porches are virtual deserts. The time has come to confront the communications question in the Church at all levels from the Vatican, through hierarchies and local bishops, down to the practical level of marketing the message to the people. Having the truth is no longer a consolation if nobody is ever hearing, let alone listening, with attention.

influence is crucial "To have a Catholic school in its truest sense, it is absolutely vital to have the complete support of the parents," the Aquinas junior school headmaster said on Tuesday night. Brother Daniel McMahon told a speech night gathering that the vital role of parents as the first and primary educators of their children had been spelt out in the documents of the Second Vatican Council. "A survey of 3,500 people conducted in N.S.W., Victoria and Tasmania, by Dr. Hans Mol, revealed that the family background was of tremendous importance in the passing on of values, both moral and religious," he said. "Responses to his survey indicated that those children whose -parents held strong Christian values were twice as likely to hold these values as other people of their own age. "When both factors — a Catholic school and strong Catholic values in the home — were added together, the response of these people in the survey was over 80 per cent positive. "Dr. Mol indicated that the most significant conclusion of his whole survey was: the Catholic school strongly reinforces religious and moral values if they are lived out in the home. "Last year I indicated in my report to you that it was, in my opinion, better for parents who do not fully support our teachings and our way of life in matters of faith and morals, to choose other Christian schools for their children. "Dr. Mol's research would support this statement. "Parents and school need to work closely together and to support each other in the difficulties of our society. "This implies communication and cooperation that goes both ways. "These qualities — family moral background and the application of these Catholic morals — make a Catholic school 'Catholic'. "I would like to stress the importance of the father's influence at this stage of the junior school student's development," he added. "I have found that very often the schooling side of education is left to the mothers. "It is Mum who has the contact with the school, who collects the report, who attends school and interschool activities and the one who knows the teacher. "This is understandable When it is realised that Dad is usually at work. "Fathers, it is of the utmost importance for you to spend time with your preadolescent son. I cannot emphasis this too much.
"It is now that you will gain the confidence and trust of your son. "Don't let yourself be seen only as the provider and the disciplinarian, but rather as a loving father and friend — no matter what else you can or cannot give in the way of temporalities. "Nothing will substitute your time with your son and families and, "I can assure you, the time spent with your son now will be rewarded a hundredfold later. "I urge you to become involved, whenever possible, in your son's schooling, in his sporting activities, class excursions and camps."
Guest of honour at the Aquinas Junior School speech night was former junior school headmaster Brother Boyd Egan pictured congratulating Timothy Macknay to whom he had presented an award for music, watched by his father Clive Macknay who was an Aquinas pupil of Brother Egan 20 years ago. Brother Egan was on the staff of A quinas for 22 years, saw the building of the present junior school and was well known as the commanding officer of the college cadet unit.

Father Tony Ryan, S.J., Director of Catholic Relief Services in South Bihar, has appealed urgently for funds to help hard working farmers re-establish themselves following India's severe drought and famine. These farmers are very dignified and human people, but have a particularly tough time. The average family of seven lives in a one room mud dwelling without electricity, water supply and sewerage. Their household possessions include a few cooking utensils, a mud and cowdung stove, some baskets, water pots and sleeping mats. Their survival depends on what they can grow. But since late 1979, when crops failed and water became scarce, they have struggled to exist on one meal a day. Tools, animals, cooking utensils were sold to buy food. Then seed for the next crop had to be eaten. Finally, they foraged for roots, nuts, bulbs and anything edible . . . just to stay alive. Severe malnutrition, excessive heat, lack of drinking water, made their lives unbearable. The extent of their suffering is hard to comprehend. With the drought now over they have an urgent need for nourishing food. But without bullocks for ploughing, farming tools, seeds and fertilisers, the food they need so desperately will be beyond their resources. A small donation will provide them with seeds and fertilisers. $80 buys a pair of bullocks for ploughing. Please help them to get started. All donations are gratefully acknowledged by:— Australian Jesuit Mission in India, Jesuit Mission Centre, P.O. Box 193, North Sydney, N.S.W. 2060.

I know that there are gross difficulties in this regard in modern society. There are burdens sometimes laid upon the woman, such as inadequate housing, economic and health problems; even outright prejudice against big families stand in the way of greater wealth of children.

Plumbers' man was told he was mad to quit a job Mr. Roy Galvin has built one of the State's leading plumbing supplies concerns over 47 years in a very competitive business. A cornerstone of his success, regarded as an old-fashioned notion too often these days, is the idea that "the customer is always right." He was aided by his brother Len for 45 years and two of his sons, John and Jim, are now actively engaged in the business. Roy has been a member of the Hibernian Australian Catholic Benefit Society for 62 years. After many years in Leederville, he has been a member of the Applecross parish for the past 25 years. He is a modest man, but there is just a touch of pride in the boss's manner as he shows a visitor round the headquarters establishment of his company.
It is the extensive city premises of the family company Roy Galvin and Co. which stretches along the western side of William Street and well around the corner into Francis Street.
The man who gave the parent c ompany its name — there are several other companies in the group — is greeted by staff as Mr. Roy because sons John and Jim are actively engaged in the business and a third son, Dr. Tony, is a partner.
Plumbing supplies of almost every des cription, the company's stock-in-trade, are stored in orderly fashion in the warehouses at the rear of the premises and the softly-spoken Roy Galvin knows where every item is located. A lot of them are made in the company's factory at Osborne Park and sold also from branches in that suburb and at Wanneroo and Willetton. And it all started from humble beginnings. Roy was born in Hay Street in Perth in 1902 and educated at Arranmore Convent, later to become St. Mary's, in Leederville — a parish with which he was prominently associated for many years. He started work at Harris, Scarfe and Sandovers in 1917 and one of his bosses was Joe O'Callaghan, brother of the late Father Gerry O'Callaghan who is well remembered as an AIF padre in the Middle East and the parish priest at East Fremantle. He moved from Sandovers to the Wellington Street hardware store of James Eastwood Ltd. where he stayed until he started his own business in 1933. It was at the height of the Depression and the wiseacres said that he was mad to leave a job paying six pounds a week and risk his life savings in such a venture at such a time. His brother Len, now living in retirement at Floreat Park after 45 years in the business, was with him and the little concern made progress from the start despite the forebodings of the pundits. They moved to the present William Street site in 1935, a location that then had only a few little shops and houses. But the sagacious Roy had foreseen the advantages to be gained from positioning a plumbing supplies business where it could best serve the northern suburbs, and William Street was a main artery from the north. There was plenty of competition from bigger suppliers but the Galvins survived and progressed by building up the rapport with customers and the high standards of service which are still the hallmarks of the business. Came the war and the difficulties it brought in maintaining continuity of supplies, but there was plenty of work —army camps and the like — for the plumbers who were their customers. There was also sadness because two of the assistants who had worked in the shop, Austin Keogh and Mick Cusack, were killed fighting in New Guinea. The . post-war years brought steady e xpansion and the company has grown from a little two-man show to a business that now employs 120 people. Every two years or so it produces a comprehensive and well-illustrated catalogue of its wares called Galvin's Guide
By BOB BOYLE which has been described as the bible of the plumbing business. It goes to every plumber and local authority in the State as well as to people such as architects and builders. One of its early pages carries a potted version of the Galvin philosophy. Among the points made are: • The customer is most important. He is not dependent on us as we are on him. • We're not doing him a favour by serving him — he's doing us a favour. • He is not an interruption to our work — he is the purpose of it. • The customer is not someone to argue with or match wits with. • Nobody has won an argument with a customer. Although he has been a strong member of the Applecross parish for 25 years, Roy still has nostalgic attachments to the Leederville of his younger days. Sixty-two years ago at the age of 16, he joined the Leederville branch of the Hibernian Australian Catholic Benefit Society and he is still a member.

Roy Galvin was only a toddler when this picture was taken in 1906 in North Perth when the first trams arrived there, but years later he was to locate his business to take advantage of plumbers' requirements in areas north of the city. The Record, December 4-10, 1980

I was born at Wellington Mills and after the death of my father, my mother came to Perth about 1914 with her family of five. My oldest sister was about 15. My parents were Irish, and although mum had very little of this world's goods, she had her very strong Catholic faith. The only relative she had in Perth was a cousin, Mrs Bourke, who lived in Wittenoom Street, East Perth. Her two daughters had entered the convent, Sr M. Berchaus and Sr. M. Leonard. She gave some immediate assistance, then mum rented a house in Victoria Avenue. My brother went to St Pat's, and althoughIwas only 21/2 the Sisters of Mercy of St Joseph's Convent kindly took me n amwiliyth . my older sister so mum could go to work and support the family. There were no social services in those days, so mum's day started very early in the morning and finished late at night. I was at St Joseph's till Third Grade, then went to Sacred Heart Convent, Highgate, where I did a Commercial Junior. I did office work, then later worked at the Archbishop's Palace when Archbishop Prendiville was resident and Fr. Bill Kelly was Administrator. Then followed on Mons. Kennedy, who married Peter and me in 1939.

Pope: Avoid drugs Ask not of others pseudo-religious The youth scene this week sects and alcohol

A young person yesterday e xpressed disappointment that at Sunday Mass there had been no mention of the earthquake victims in Italy.
MUNICH, Germany: During Mass attended by nearly 700,000 people Pope John Paul II called on German youth to avoid the e scape into alcohol and drugs, pseudo-religious sects, and "pseudo and social utopias". Urging young people utopias, idealised dreams "not to be easily moved of society," he said. from your senses or terrified," the Pope said that "As necessary as ideals people too often turned and aims are, utopian to "certain external prac- 'magic formulas' will not tices" instead of to God. get us anywhere, since they are usually accom"Not a few young peo- panied by totalitarian ple here in your country power or the destructive are in the process of des- use of violence," he troying their inner being added. by withdrawing into themselves with the aid of Pope John Paul said that young people had alcohol and drugs," he some reason to seek said. escape from "the techni"Withdrawing into one- cal and economic develself can also lead to opments (which may) pseudo -religious sects, destroy man's natural livwhich abuse your ideal- ing conditions" and from ism and your enthusiasm the realities of "our world and deprive you of free- which is divided into mildom of thought and con- itary power blocs, poor science," the Pope added. and rich nations, free and t otalitarian States."

lot of good." An example was the work of Mother Teresa of Calcutta, 1979 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, which was done anonymously "before a surprised world became aware of her work." the Pope said. "Your human life is a unique adventure and enterprise that can turn into both a blessing and a curse," Pope John Paul told the young people. "Before you young people, who are the great hope of the future, let us ask the Lord of the harvest to send every one of you, and every one of your young fellow citizens on this earth, as labourers to his great harvest, in keeping with the great wealth of callings and gifts in his kingdom on this earth."
I tried to point out that the priest should not be the only person responsible for what happens at the Liturgy. It is the prayer of the people as well. Confronted with such big tragedies we feel helpless. We all cry out in a prayer of pain and ask each other, "what can we do?" The same day another young person spoke to me about a more local tragedy. It was their concern for the "down and outs" of our city. Late one evening this young person was walking through the city and passed an old couple sleeping huddled on a pavement bench. This was just not good enough, the young person felt. The scene really disturbed that young person because he was not sure what to do, or where to go for help. I suggested that the least he could have done was simply to talk to the old couple and ask them how they felt about sleeping on a bench in the cold. Of these two tragedies, one is enormous and beyond our individual capacity to do very much alone; the other is smaller and touches us more closely and about which we are able to do something.

cultural grant to present it in the city for adult audiences. The play had another beneficial spinoff in that it increased parent involvement in school activities. This enhancement of interest was welcome, but the P and F had already been active. Its members had put down a bore and they are now working on reticulation and fencing in addition to establishing the school oval. The mothers run the canteen and assist in the school library. The pupils won the boys' section in the inter-school sports for Mercy colleges in the region and the students are coached in tennis, soccer and cricket. Until this year the school worked with t wo others in the area but it is now an independent entity. Its principal objective is to give its pupils a good Catholic education and to prepare them properly for their state in life,
an aim that is aided by regular class Masses and close co-operation with the Girrawheen Mercy Parish of which it is a part. Staff and pupils are looking forward to an even more fulfilling programme next year. ..

What they seek
AT JOHN XXIII The school motto Seek Justice is the guiding principle of John XXIII College, the board chairman, Mr. Terry O'Connor told parents and pupils at the annual closing function on Tuesday night. He said that this meant teaching children something about the world in which they were going to live and something about Christ's love for those less fortunate than themselves. "Seeking justice does not mean having the highest material resources, the lowest pupil-teacher ratio, the best playing fields or fees that only the wealthy can afford," he said. "On the other hand, seeking justice does not mean ignoring the necessity of having resources or putting up with classes that are unacceptably large or with inadequate facilities. "What we are seeking in John XXIII is a school that strikes a balance between extravagance and wastefulness and the legitimate expectations of students and parents for an education which will equip them properly for later life." Sister Denise, the college principal, gave a report on progress that had been made since she held a meeting of parents to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the college. She said that she was gratified that parents had acknowledged aims such as the Christian environment, the socio-economic and multi-cultural aspect of the school, its social awareness, community spiritual-
ity and pastoral concern in religious and moral education. Referring to the large number of last year's students who had entered tertiary education, Sister Denise said that there was concern over the pressure that existed for the student who chose not to enter tertiary or higher secondary studies. "We try to instill into students that who a person is, is more important than what a person does, and that intangible results measured on this scale of values are more important than the measurable results of marks at school," she added. Sister Denise said that the criteria for entry to John XXIII College were family values and the parents' witness to prayer and worship. To parents who were not coming up to that standard she put the question: "Are you creating a conflict situation for your child? "Where the school in Christian education is stressing prayer, the Mass and the sacraments, then if the family practice negates these three there is a real confusion for the child with an undermining of parental or school authority, or both. "On the other hand, where parental and school values coincide we have a very happy partnership."
