MarywaslisteningtothewordsofwisdomwhichfellfromtheSacredLips ofJesus;andshewasdrinkingfrom thefountainofholiness.Marthawas anxiousthatMaryshouldalsoshare intheworkofattendingtoOurLord's wants.SheturnedtoOurLordand askedHimtorequestMarytohelp herinthepreparationfortherepast.

Inordertomakematteisclearer,it maybewelltotakeaconcretecase. OurLordmaycallsomeonetotake chargeofsomework,ortofulfilsome vocationintheChurchoreveninthe world.Thisworkmayentailagreat dealofenergyandcare,andmay requireverymuchtime.Thewise personherekeepshistranquilityof mindinspiteofalltheanxietiesofthe work..Heactsonlyafterprayerand consultationwithGod.Hepreserves thespiritofrecollection;andsosanctifiesallhisworks,andallthetime, occupiedintheirperformance.Another maydoasimilar,work,andgivetoit allhisattention,andallhiscare;yet hemaymakemanymistakes;gainno merit;anddoverylittlegoodtosouls; becausehehasnotthespiritofrecoliection;andbecauseheallowshis exterioroccupationstodestroyhisinteriorlife.Hiswholeattentionis givenovertoalltheunimportantdetailsofhisvocation.Hegivesghimselfnotimeforreflection,andeither cutsshortorelsesayshisprayerswithdistractions.Howmanypeopledo verymuchworkforGod'sgloryand thesalvationofsouls,yetlosenearly allthemeritoftheirwork;andinsteadofgaininggracesfromalltheir effortstheyoftenfallintotepidity; andthegoodworkperformedmaybe thecauseoftheirspiritualruin.

Judasheldtheofficeofbursarin theApostolicCollege.Thiswasa necessaryoccupation,becauseOur LordandtheApostlesrequiredtem-poralitiestocarryontheirwork,just likeothersengagedinthesalvation ofsouls.YetJudasallowedthe handlingofmoneytodestroyallthat spiritofgenerosityandself-forgetfulness.Finallyheendedbylosingthe faith;andforgreedheevensoldOur LordtotheJews.Judasisnotan isolatedcase,althoughheisworthyof particularnotice,beinganapostle.

LettertotheNewmanSociety

ADDRESSEDTOTHE Rev.Sir,-Iaddressthefollowing commentstothemembersoftheNewmanSocietythroughyou:

(1)Financialrecognitionbythe Stateoftheworkdonebyteachersin Catholicschools:

Iamgladthatinopeningthenew ConventbuildingatBunburyrecently, theArchbishopchosetorefertothis subject.Ithinkthat,atthepresent time,aconcertedattemptonthepart ofCatholicsWouldremove(atleast pertly)thedisabilitiesunderwhichour schoolslabour.Myattentionhas, duringthelastfewyears,beendrawn todifferentaspectsofthismatter,and asIhappentobefamiliarwithboth ourownandtheStateeducational system,Ihavesomeintentionofpublishingnextyearafewremarksonthis importantquestion.Oneobjectof thisletteristoaskyoutoattemptto interesttheNewmanSocietyinkeepingthisquestionbeforethemindsof bothCatholicsandnon-Catholics.Any personwho,possessingcertaindetailed informationtosupporttheclaimsof ourCatholicschools,attemptstopresentthistonon-Catholicreaders,must besupportedbyastrongandinsistent demandbyCatholicsasabody.In thisregard,Iwishtodirectyourattentiontotwoimportantaspectsof thematterwhicharerarelyreferred tobyspeakersonthissubject:

(a)TheCatholicdemandisnotyet sufficientlystrongorinsistent,because fewCatholics,evenofthosewhoare 'yinapositiontoinvestigate,areaware oftheextenttowhichwearebeing robbed(thereisnootherword).Any onefamiliar,saywiththehighschools oftheEducationDepartmentwillrealisethat,whiletheCatholicschooleasilyequalsoreclipsestheotherwhen onthesameground,itsactivitiesare, insomeimportantrespects,toooften starvedbylackoffunds.TheState notonlyspendsmoneyfreelyonbuildingsbutgivesgenerouslyfortheestablishmentandequipmentofmany things,fromchemicallaboratoriesto schoolsofwoodworkandmetalwork. Forexample,aboyinterestedinthese lattermanualactivitiesmayleavea highschoolnotonlywithafineeducationintheordinarysubjectsfrom FrenchtoPhysics.butwithexpert trainingincarpentry,etc.Itwould beverydifficultforourCatholic schoolstoprovidethesethingsinthe samelavishwaywithouttakingona furtherconsiderablefinancialburden.

'Futthisisnottheonly,orthe greatest,loss.Wemaybelosingnot onlymoneybutlives.Itwouldnot onlybeeasytopointoutbrilliantCatholicstudentsandscholarships-holderswhoarepracticallyforcedbycircumstancestoattendStateHigh Schools,butitispossibletopointto Stateprimaryschoolswherethereis fartoolargeaproportionofCatholic children,someofwhomareplaced therebecauseinsuchschoolseducationisfree,andatourstheBrothers andSistersareforcedtoaskatleast someslightfinancialassistancefrom parents.(TheappearanceofsuchchildrenatStateschoolspossiblyindicatesapeculiarsenseofvaluesonthe partofsomeCatholicparents,butit isapitythatchildrenshouldsufferfor theweaknessesoftheirelders.)

ManyCatholicsdonotrealisethis doublelosssustainedbytheChurch bytherefusaloftheStatetograntaid toourteachersandthegreatextensionofscopewhichwe.uldfollowthe consummationofthisactofsimple justice.(Forexample,youhave.I amafraid,littlehopeofgainingwithin ashorttimesufficientmoneytoerect afittingCatholiccollegeattheUniversity,owingtotheheavyburden alreadybornebyCatholicsinsupportingtheireducationalinstitutions,but youwouldhaveaverygoodprospect ofobtainingitifthisburdenwerelessenedbythegrantingofStateaidto oarprimaryandsecondaryschools,) SomesincereCatholicsstillbelievethat thelosssustainediscompensatedby theopportunitywhichthrpresent situationgivestoourpeopletodemonstratetheirenthusiasticsupportofthe Christianidealofeducation.Ihave nowfarlesssympathywiththisview thanIhadonce.Itmightbesaid thatwargivestoanationanexcellentopportunitytodisplaythecourageandvigourofitsmanhood,butit isnotworththeprice.

(b)However,Iamafraidthat,of thoseCatholicswhoappreciatethefull injusticeofthepresentstateofaffairs,someassumetooreadilythat themajorityofnon-Catholicsaredirectlyassociatedwiththisinjustice: Thisassumptionisnotonlyinsulting, bututterlyunfair.Thisisanimportsatpoint,forIhaveknownmanyCatholicswhoaretonmuchdisposedto imputetothepresentgenerationof Australiancitizensthedeliberatecontinuanceofthepresenteajustcondi'

OBAPLAINtions.Imytelfhaveused,andshall useagain,theword"robbery"toindicatetheseriousnessofthelosssustained,but,Ishallapplyittotheinactionofcontemporarynon-Catholics onlywhenIamcertainthattheyare fullyconsciousofthewronginflicted. OfonethingIamcertain-thatwe,as Catholics,havenotyetgivensufficientlyclearandfirmexpressiontoour thoughtsonthismatter,andhavenot setourselvestodemonstrateclearlyto non-Catholicstheutterunfairnessof thepresentsystem.*Youmaydisagreewiththis,butIdonotthink thatyouwillfindanypublicationby anAustralianCatholic'addressedto non-Catholicsandsupportingwithdetailedinformationanappealtotheir senseoffairplay,andtotheirnatural respectforaneducationalandsocial idealwhichregardsmoraltrainingas thebasisofalltrainingforcitizenship.

IamcertainthatinnootherState inAustraliaisthereabetterchance ofobtainingfullrecognitionofthe workofourCatholicschools,butthis recognitionwillnotbeobtainedunless wefirstgainthesupportofallreasonablenon-CatholicsbyafirmandsustaineddemandandaclearandtemperateexpositionoftheCatholicposition.(Itishardlynecessarytoadd that,asfarasthequestionisonein whichpoliticalactionmusttakeplace, itshouldnotbeapartyquestion:we mustgaintheinterestandsupportof fairmeninever);party.)

*Note:Generalstatementsareof littleuse.Ihavenotedtwospecific instancesofinjusticewhicharerarely mentionedbyCatholicsinW.A.,but which,whenmentioned,arereadilyappreciatedbynon-Catholics.Imay speakofthesemorefullylater.

(2)TheNewmanSociety.

IamgladtohearthattheNewman Societyisnowtoresumeitsmeetings ithas,asfarasIknow,beeninastate ofslumberfornearlytwoyears.I oughttohavetakenmoreinterestin thematterbefore,sinceIwasavicepresidentoftheSocietyin1927,andI believethatalecturegivenbymein Augustofthatyearwasthelastoccasiononwhichameetingwasheld.(I trustthatthelecturewasnotofa naturetosendawholesocietytosleep forthislengthyperiod.)Iamnot alittleofahermit(minusthevirtues) myself,andIhavemetfewofthe membersandheard'nothingofthesocietysincethattime.Asamatterof fact,Ihadintendedtomakeanattemptlastyeartowakenthesociety bysuggestingcertainactivitiesin whichitmightengage.Oneofmy reasonsfornotmakingtheattempt wasthatIwasdoubtfulwhetherthese activitiesmightnotdrawawayattentionfromwhatyouhavestatedas thechiefaim-thefoundationofaCatholiccollegeattheUniversity.However,Inowindicatesomeofthepoints whichIhadintendertostress:

(1)TheSocietymustnotonlydo something:itmustgiveitsmembers thefeelingthatitandtheyasindividualsaredoingsomething.Someof themembersweremildlyannoyed whenIsuggestedin1926thatthesocietywouldnotsurviveifitsmembers hadnoimmediateworktodo:butI thinkIamrightinsavingthatthe promiseofthefirstenthusiastiCmeetinghasnotbeenfulfilled,andthat thisfactisduetotheinfrequencyof meetingsandthedegenerationofmeetingsintomeretalkingandlistening.

(2)IthereforesuggestastheimmediateaimtheremovalofCatholicdisabilitiesineducation.Itshouldbe theobjectofthesociety,first,tomake theCatholicdemeridsomethingtoed& andclearerthanthehalf-heartedthing itis.and,secondly.toattempttoremovefromnon-Catholicmindstheprejudiceswhichhinderthelustrecognitionoftheworkof,ourschools.'The lobmaybeadifficultone:itwillcertainlyrequirepainstakingandpersistenteffort:butitwillbeworthdoing. Thesocietyshouidbevigilant,notonly toobserveindicationsofsupport,hut. aboveall,tocounterpatientlyand thoroughlythedifferentarguments whichmaybeurgedagainstus.In thisconnection,itshouldinvitetheassistanceofmenexpertindifferentaspectsofthequestion.Forexample, tostatementswhichcompareunfavourablythestandardofCatholicschools withthatofStateinstitutions,it should,insteadofreplyingwrathfully andingeneralterms,outforwardthe statementsofthosewhohaveafirsthandacquaintancewiththelatter.(As IamamemberoftheEducationDepartment,thissoundsratheregotistical,buttherearemanyotheraspects ofthematter,ofwhichIknowjust sufficienttofeel.thatIwouldwelcome informationconcerningthemfrom othermemberswithmoreexpertknowledge.Forexample;theexistenceor lackofStateaidinothercountries,the peculiarcirounstaocrwhich,la.the

past,attendedtheremovalofState aidinotherAustralianStates,thesupportgiventoourcausebymodern educationalthought,alloftheseaffect theissue,and,evenfrommyown slightknowldge,IamcertainthatCatholicsfamiliarwiththeseaspects couldgivegreatassistancetoour cause.)

(3)TheSociety,beinganassociation ofeducatedpersons,shouldbeinterestedineducationandeducationalinstitutionsgenerally.Yourrighthand menintheappealforCastledareshould bethemembersoftheNewmanSociety.Havewebeensuch?Catholics educatedfortheprofessions(snobbish word!)shouldbeinterestedinseeing thatthosewhomNaturehasdebarred fromsucheducationshallobtainthe mostcomplef9trainingpossiblefor them.Accordingtomyideas,the NewmanSocietyshouldbeofassistanceinattemptingtoincreaseeducationaleffortthroughouttheState.It mightnotonlyencourage,pay,Albany bygivingpublicitytowhatisbeing done,say,inGeraldton,butmight bethemeansofobtainingassistance forthoseplaceswhichneedsupport, butcannotgetsufficienthelpfrom merelylocalappeals.(Icanthinkof atleastoneschoolwhichIoughtpersonallytohaveassistedinthisway.) Thepointisthatthemembersand organisationoftheNewmanSociety shouldbeavailabletoassistanyimportanteducationalappeal.

(4)TheNewmanSocietyshouldaim attheformationofagreatCatholic libraryisthefirststeptowardsthe proposedNewmanCollege.Thewords ofCarlylestillringtrue:"Thetrue Universityinthesedaysisacollectionofbooks."Ishouldtaketoo longeventoattempttoindicatethe manifoldusesofsuchalibrary.(I thinkthatasmallCatholiclibraryexistsinoneoftheotherStatecapitals.)

ARayofLightinMexico

On.the21st.inst(statesacable messagefromMexicoCity),thePresident-(SenatorE.P.Gil)announceda settlementofthecontroversybetween theRomanCatholicChurchandthe StateofMexicoonthefollowingbasis: Firstly,theMexicanGovernmentwill allow designatetheRomanCatholichierarchyto priestswhoaretoregister incompliancewiththeMexicanlaws; secondly,religiousinstructionwillnot bepermittedinschools,butwillbe permittedwithinthechurches;thirdly, therightwillbereservedtoRoman CatholicprelatestoaptlyforthemodificationoftheConstitutionatany timeinthefuture,whichisthesame rightgrantedtoallMexicancitizens.

Thestatementlookauthenticand maybetakenseriously.TheCatholic worldwillrejoicetolearnthatpeace hasreallybeenrestoredtotheCatholic ChurchinMexico.Lastmonthan editorialinthatwell-informedweekly review"America,"read:

"Therecentexchangeofstatements betweenArchbishopRuiz,headofthe MexicanHierarchy,andProvisional PresidentPortesGil,isthemosthopefulthingthathascomeoutofthe Mexicanmuddleforalengtime.Ifit isfollowedupintelligentlyandingood $faithitmaybringpeaceatlastto manyconsciences.

"Thetermsonwhichasettlement canhemadehavelongbeenknown. Theymaybeexpressedinasimple phrase:separationofChurchand State.

"ThismeansthatPortesGilrecognisesthatthedecreesofPresident CallesonJuly2,1926,weretheoppo-iteofseparation,thattheywereunion ,,fChurchandStateofapeculiarly odiouskind,contrarytoallmodern civilisedpractice;thattheopposition oftheChurchtothisunionwasnot dictatedbyanydesiretocontrol Mexicanpolitics,butbyaprofounddevotiontoinalienableprinciple;andthat theidealpracticalsystemoftherelationsofChurchandStateinthemodernworldisthatwhichexistsinthe UnitedStates.

"Ontheone-hand,theChurchcan makenodifficultyaboutaccepting suchterms.TheChurchdemands nothingbutfreedomtocarryoutits peacefulmissionofsavingsoulsandof makingthemChristlike.Theevents ofthepastfourmonthsdemonstrate thatMexiconeedsthatmissionand needsitquickly.ThepresentPope hasmadeitclearthathispolicyis veryfarfromruleofthecabinets,of thearmiesandnaviesofthenations, sfinternalpolitics:itistobringthe individuallivesofmenandoftheir familiesbacktothepiacticeofthe virtuesofourLeader,Christ.Ifthe MexicanBishopsoncebegintonegotiatewithPortesGil,theyoughtto havenodifficultyinmakingthis clear.Itisunderstood.ofcourse,that theHolySeecannotbeexcludedfrom this,atleastinitslaststages.

"Consequently,PortesGil,ifheis leftafreehand,andfeelshimselfsufficientlyindependentofCalles,will easilyheabletocometoterms.It issimplyaquestionofwhetherhe willheabletoacceptforMexicoa systemwhichhasprovedsobeneficial toreligionandcountryintheUnited States.Heisinapositionofhaving tomakeachoice:eitherhewinsthe Cameofpacificatorofhiscountry,or hethrowsithackintostrifeandconfusion.Naturally,anyagreement madewillhavetobeaccompanied byguaranteesoffulfilment."

ThestrifebetweentheRationalist GovernmentofMexicoandtheCatholicsofthatStatehasbeenlongand 'hitterandtenaciousonthesideof each.Todethronereligionwasthe chiefpurposeofCalles.Itnowseems thattheGovernmenthasadmittedthe futilityofitswaronreligion,andhas thrownupthesponge.Thesepara- tionofChurchandStatecouldhave beeneasilymadewithoutplunder,bloodshed,murder.andawholeseries ofdespicablethingsdoneunderthe aegisoftheMexicanGovernment's authority.

AfewdaysbeforelastChristmas,havingassistedinthehearingofthechildren'sconfessionsinhisCathedral,he wasreturningtohishomewhenhis hearttailedhim.Thus,inthemidst ofhislabours,hisfatalillnesshadits beginning.Duringhislongillnesshe wasnursedwithtendercareanddevotionbytheSistersofMercy,andhe wasvisitedconstantlybyArchbishop MannixandthepriestsofTasmania andMelbourne.Thestaffofthehospital,doctors,sistersandnurses,were alledifiedbyhisunfailingpatienceand cheerfulness.Theyrecallhowhappy hewaswhenintheearlydaysofhis illnesshecouldbeneartheblessed SacramentandvisitItregularly.His fortitudewasremarkable,butinthis hewasbutfollowingthecharacterhe displayedwheninboyhood'sdayshe playedthegamebravelytotheend.

AmonghisclassmateswastheMost Rev.Dr.Roche,Archbishopof_Newfoundland.Hewasordainedin1 InNovember,1898,Dr.IB'arryarrivedinAustralia,andfor12yearswas attachedtothestaffofSt.Mary'sCathedral,Sydney,duringthelateCardinalMoian'sepiscopate.Hewas closelyassociatedwithalltheimportanteventsoftheCathedralandArchdioceseofSydney;wasmasterofceremoniesattheplenarycouncilofAustraliainSydneyin1905,andactedin thesamecapacityattheconsecration ofSt.Mary'sCathedral.In1907he wassentbyCardinalMoranonaspecialmissiontoNorfolkIsland,andwas thefirstpriesttosayMassonthe islandfollowingtheremovalofthe convicts,60yearspreviously.Healso actedaschaplaintoDarlinghurstGaol, theNavy,andSeamen'sMission.A poorschoolneartheCathedralreceivedthespecialattentionofDr.Barry, whowasthefirstchaplainappointed totheschoolbyhisEminenceCardinal Moran.TheSistersofSt.Joseph andthechildrenattendingtheschool hadawarmfriendinDr.Barry,who workedwhole-heartedlyforthechildren'swelfare.AzealousanddevotedworkerattheCathedral,hewon hiswayintotheheartsofthepeople, andimpressedhissuperiorswithhis thoroughnessandadministrativecapacity.In1910hewasappointedpastorofChatswood,Sydney,andheld thepastoratefornineyears.Inthis parishhebuiltapresbyteryandafine churchatSt.Leonard's.

WhilestillparishpriestofChatswood,Rev.WilliamBarry,attherequestofArchbishopKelly,travelled throughQueenslandcollectingforSt. Mary'sCathedral,Sydney.Shortly afterhisreturnhewasappointedby HisHolinessPopeBenedictXV.as Coadjutor-ArchbishoptoDr.Delany,of Hobart,cumiuresuccessionis.Hewas consecratedTitular-ArchbishopofPesinonteat'St.Mary'sCathedralonAugust31,1919,bytheArchbishopof Sydney.OflisExcellencytheApostolicDelegate,theMostRev.ArchbishopCattaneo,presidedatthethrone, andtheassistingprelateswerethe (bishopsofLismoreandWilcanniaForbes.

ThenewArchbishopreceivedamost cordialwelcomefromArchbishopDelanyandthepriestsandpeopleof Tasmania.Theyshowedthatthe IslandStatewasnotsecondtothe Mainlandinitsappreciationofthe sterlingqualitiesofDr.Barry.They knewofhispreviousworkbyrepute; nowtheybenefittedbyhislabours amongthem.ArchbishopDelany,advancedinyears,wasinfeeblehealth, andheleftthelargerpartoftheactiveworkofadministrationtohisCoadjutor.ArchbishopBarrytookhis placeinthepubliclifeofHobart.His engagingpersonalityendearedhimto allclasses.Allhistalentsofhead andheartheputatthedisposalofhis peopleofTasmania.PartsofTasmaniaaredifficultofaccess,buthevisitedeventhesmallestandmostremotedistrict',notonce,butmany times.Indeed,heseemedtobeeverywhereatthesametime,thepeople said.Whereverhewenthetriedto lightingthecaresofhispriests;he preachedtothepeople;hecatechised thechildren.Forthechildrenhehad aspeciallove;hecouldadapthimself totheirmentalityandwintheirconfidenceandaffection.Andinthem prayerstheyrememberedhiminhis lastsickness.

TheoutlinesofDr.Barry'scharacter maybesummedupinthewords,earnestness,sincerityandteal;andwhen withthesequalitieswerecombinedan engagingmannerandasympathetic heart,wehaveanunderstandingof thepowerDr.Barrypossessedof"makingfastfriendsineverywalkoflife. AmongthosefriendsinTasmaniahe numberedhisExcellencytheGovernor,SirJamesO'Grady.Theyfound theyhadmuchincommon,andtheir earlyacquaintanceripenedintoafast friendship.
