Why'nottheimportantandinfluentialPharisees. sittingwarmandcomfortablebytheirfiresathome? Whywasnotthemessageoftheangelsfirstdeliveredto thecourtofHerodtheGreat,justsixmilestothenorth inJerusalem?

Theshepherdswerethefirsttobetoldofthebirth oftheMessiasbecauseinthiswayGodintendedto showHisloveforthepoor.Fromthefirstmomentof HisBirth,Christwastobeasignofcontradiction;from thebeginningHeidentifiedHimselfwiththeunderdog, notwiththesuccessfulandpowerfulofthisworld.

Moreover,ifwethinkofSt.Josephasfairlyyoung, thevirtuesweassociatewithhimbecomeevenbrighter. Patience,forexample,weratherexpectinseasonedand experiencedmen;itisallthemorenotableinthe young.

Hetoldmembersofthe CatholicUnionofthe ItalianPressthatthese characteristicsarea"necessaryandurgentantidote againsttheseriousdangers foundincertainsectorsof thepress.

Themake-upofthePope's audienceandsomeofthe detailsofhisdiscoursemade itclearthatPopeJohnwas speakingtotheItalianjournalistsabouttheItalian press.Buthealsostated thatthegeneralcharacterof hisremarksmadethempertinentforall"whowork withyouinthenameof honestyandtruthandwho defendthoseidealswhich arecommontomenofgood will."

ThePopeexpressedgreat esteemforall"whodedicate themselveshonestlytothe difficultandseriousprofessionofjournalism."

Buthesaidhehas"a naturalandeasilyunderstandablepreference"for thosewhoq`exercisethis professioninthelightofthe Gospelandofthelivingand perennialteachingofthe Church."

"Itisnotsufficent,therefore,toknowonlyhowtO informandbeinformed," thePopecontinued."One mustalsoknowthemeans andthetechniquesofinformation,atthesametimenot wastingtimeinlisteningto andreadinguselessthings sothathecanacquire theskillofknowinghowto

HequotedfromPopeLeo XIII:"Allthosewhoreally andsincerelywantboth sacredandcivilthingstobe defendedeffectivelybyable writers shouldoutof theirowngenerosityseekto promote talent;and thegreaterone'swealth,all themorelustforoneto supportthemwithone's powerandriches"(Encyclical'Etainos.'Feb.15,1882).

Whileurgingajustwage forCatholicnewsmen,Pope Johnatthesametimewarnedagainst"pureprofessionalism."HesaidtheCatholic journalistwho"seesthings solelyfromaneconomicand technicalviewpoint eventhoughheishonest, willneverachievehisaim ifheisnotsupportedand governedbythespiritof prayer,charityandtheapostolicimpulse."

ThePopedevelopedhis secondpointof"brotherly cooperationandco-ordination"inthelightofChristiancharityandtouchedon manyquestions-among themtheunityofCatholic journalistsamongthemelves,defenceoftheChurch iiasociety,andduerespect forlegitimateauthority.

Hedefinedhisthirdpoint, aChristiansense,as"that fragranceofChristwhich givesajusttonetoeverything."

TheHolyFathersaidthat suchasenseisalsomanifestedinnotindulgingin praise,innotattributingall meritstoonesidealone.In short,hesaid,theChristian sense"seekstoemphasise thoseuniversalexpressions ofwhatistrue,goodand beautiful."

NOSEASONoftheyear,noteventhelove-sick spring,hasgivenussomuchbeautifulmusicas Christmas.SogreatisthetreasurythatProfessor Callawaywasabletofillanentireeveningatthe WinthropHallwithChristmasmusicneverbefore performedpubliclyinWesternAustralia.

TheFirstNowel,a NativityCantataby VaughanWilliams,is modernonlyindate,1958, asinspirititissaturated inthepopularCatholic devotionofthelateMiddle Ages.

Indeed,thegreaterpartof thecantataisanarrangementofmedievalcarols;the term"arrangement"isnot slighting,everywhere VaughanWilliamsenriches anddeepensthemusic.

Thisintimatemusicwas admirablysuitedtothe lovelyvoiceofMollyMcGurkinhertwosolosand ArnoldMattersprovedas capableasever,butboth soloistswouldconcedethat thechoirtookthehonours, particularlythewomen. Theirunaccompaniedchorus "inBethlehemCity"was thefinestpartofthecantata.

Therestoftheevening wasdevotedtothemuch longer"ChildhoodofChrist" byBerlioz.

Someyearsago,theB.B.C. ThirdProgrammedevoted thebestpartofanevening toaprogrammeentitled"Berlioz,Crackpotor Genius,"inwhichtwoeminentmusicologistsargued thetwosidessupportedby musicalillustrations.

Theywouldnotneedto leavetheconfinesofthe "ChildhoodofChrist."What anexceedinglyoddworkit is!Itcontainsachorus, "AdieuxdesBergers,"which issuchgreatmusicthatit canstandalongsideHandel orBach;italsocontainsa duetbetweenMaryand Joseph,ofallpeople,ofsuch banalitythatitalmost reachesthedepthsof"Won't youbuymyprettyflowers."

ItwouldappearthatBerlioz'srecipeforanoratorio waslikethatforLancashire Hotpot,whichiscomposed ofanythingedibleyoucan layyourhandson.Whoelse butBerliozwouldpopina militarymarch,adervish danceandadelicioustrio forharpandtwoflutes whichhasnoconnection whatsoeverwiththenarrative?

Nevertheless,wemust concedethatBerliozisnever dullandalmostalways beautiful.Toweringlikea mountainabovetherestof theworkisthe"Adieuxdes Bergers"renderedintoEnglishas"Thoumustleavethy lowlydwelling."Incidentally,thetextheredepartsa longwayfromtheFrench andismuchsuperiortoit. Forthosewhbfoundthe

Englishtriteinplaces,they shouldnutblamethetranslator;theoriginalwordsby Berliozmoreoftenthannot matchedtherevoltingmonumentsfoundin19th-century Frenchcemeteries.

AduetbetweenMaryand Josephinthestable(notto beconfusedwiththebanalitymentionedearlier)had muchthesamespirtoftenderdevotiontotheChrist Childas "Adieux." I thoughtthedelicatelovelinessofMollyMcGurk's voicehadneverbeenheard tobetteradvantagethan here.sheseemedtosingas
