It eas been proved time after time that where a branch of our society has had the advantage of the active assistance of the priest of the parish that that branch has progressed and added to its memLership, and where it is not possible or a priest to take an active part in a branch the direct oppubite has been the result; the branches of our society in those cases have not progressed. In most cases I am sorry to say they have died, and their demise can be attributed more or less to the fact that we have not been able to secure the services of the priest to follow the interests of the society. From a Catholic point of view we have only to look around us to see the great monuments of achievement that have been built by the priests of the present and the past. There is one thing I would like to refer to this morning, and that is the hardship and life of sacrifice that. are led by our priests in the out hack places. Very often they are practically on the road from Sunday morning until the next Sunday morning. There are priests that have to travel hundreds of miles. and I think we very often overlook the fact that there priests are living a life of sacrifice to establish the Faith and make our Catholicity what it ought to be in Western Australia. Bro. Bdwards referred also to the assistance given the priests of building by the society in the schools and churches, particularly in He hoped that in the the suburbs. future when it is possible at all for a to assist in any way branch Hibernian they will do it. They can make a success of anything if they do it in the proper way Monsignor Verling, responding, said he was delighted to be pseseet because he thought there was no function that priest should he more pleasa than at present to be ed a general Communion, because it is an evidence of the Faith of the members stud it is a proof of their devotion to the Church, and it is an expression of the Faith they hold most dear. I find, he continued, at the present time in Australia those Communion Breakfasts are quite a feature of Catholic life, and I have read stateiments of priests oad bishops, and they say that they are doing untold good: they are bringing -

I know the difficulties, many and many a home was shattered, many a home was desolate, and many a father and mother with their little ones were cast out on the doorsteps and were thrown to hunger or to seek a home in a foreign land, and notwithstanding all their trials and difficulties they clung to the Faith that was in their souls. Therefore, I would ask each and every one of you this morning to remember this day and cling to your Faith, and never be afraid to say you belong to that Church that was founded by Christ Himself. You are Hibernians and Catholics, and the word Catholic- comes before Hibernian, and if you always practice your religion and are faithful to it. you may rest assured you are doing what God requires of you, and in the end you will receive the crown of eternal life.

Now the progress of the Church is not a work of priests and bishops. If we have a true faith in the Church it is the duty at the people to help in every movement for the rue cess of the Church, and 1 believe by coming together to a Communion Breakfast such as this will be one way of co-operation between priests and h-is I hops and the various societies. hope you will continue this function every year, and I believe it will bring a blessing on you. The Church is pro greasing all over the world. People sometimes ask what is the sesret of the vitality of the Church? It comes from the Blessed Eucharist. We have the promise of our Divine Lord that He will always guide the Church, then we have the altar and the Mass, and we have our Blessed Lord. and where the people frequent the altar rails there you will find the faith and the blessing of God rests in that particular place. Once again I congratulate you, and I hope that God will always bless your society. Rey. Father Moss, Adm., in a stirring speech, said he certainly ielt it a great privilege to he there that morning appearing before such a fine body of stalwart Catholics. Other denominations tell us that on Sunday mornings their The Catholic benches are empty.

That question is so often asked, but the answer to it is very simple; God and God alone guides the destinies of the Catholic Church. and the promise of our Divine Lord Himself a short time before He left the world that He would remain with His Church all days even to the consummation of the world, is an assurance that it will progress. God guides the destinies of the Church, and He gives to its members courage and strength to fight the ways of the world so that they may progress and may go ahead as He Therefore, it wished them to do. should be the pride and glory of every Catholic to adhere to the rules and doctrines laid down by the Church, and I suppose there is no other body more faithful to the Church, or observe the rules in a better manner than the members of the Hibernian Society the wide world over.

Doheny gave the toast of "'I he Hibernian Australasian Catholic He said the society Benefit Society." had a great claim to the respect and gratitude of every exiled Catholic Its history was entwined Irishman. with the unfortunate, and in many respects the glorious history of Ireland. In 1570 the Hilaernian Society was founded in Ireland by Rory Oge O'Muore, its main object being to defend the priest in the celebration of Mass in Penal Days, and to aft`a-S his body guard. Its first name was the The Defenders had a Defenders. stormy career. When O'Moure died he was succeeded by Donald O'Driscoll, who with his whole party were killed in an endeavour to shield the priest At the Confederation of Kilkenny the Defenders were given a definite status, and their work went on, but in those Penal days it meant some risk to be a priest, or a schoolmaster, and it Meant sonic risk to be an Hibernian. .In 1520 a Conference of the Society was held. and a governing body, called the Board of Erin was appointed. Later rules were drawn up, and its motto, "Friendship, Unity, and True Christian Charity," was announced. The so-
ciety helped other Irish exiles to obtain positions, and there is as great a need to-da,y for some organisation to do this as there was at any period in the history of the society. After the clearances of 1849 there were many Irishmen forced out of Ireland who found a home in Australia, and here in the 50's the H.A.C.B.S. as we know it now found a home. The need for it He wished the society still exists. long life and prosperity. The District Secretary, Bro. J. j. O'Farrell, in his response, reviewed the work of the society fur the past year.

On other occasions talking of Australia one thinks of its wonderful possibilities, its marvellous develop ments, its rich resources and untouched mines of wealth, the freedom we have tinder its blue skies, and a host of other things which are all perfectly true, but at a gathering of members of the Hi bernian Society, on whew banner is emblazoned the word Catholicity, quite different thoughts fill the mind. Everybody in the community must return something for the good they receive, but what do we return to the community as a consideration for what we get.
If we take it for granted that other people return good citizenship, let us assure all that we return to the community something more than all that, and that is what occurred to me when I was asked to speak to this toast. We

The whole trouble in this country is that other denominations, net having a full estimation of the moral world, has conceived bitterness and bigotry against Catholics and what the Catholics stand for. They see Oath. lie halls of education erected all over the State. They are envious, and they preach their doctrine of hate from little bethels against Catholicity. Ye, t hear them at election time and whew ever there is an opportunity to rail a cry against the Catholic Church. I hope the time will soon come when the heavy burden of having to pay a double tax for education will be lifted from our shoulders, and the work of the Sisters and Brothers recognised. Riches without moral, are nothing, and it is necessary for Australia to have the principles of religion leavening its economical and social life. Bro. W. A. Brown responded,
and emphasised the obligations that were upon Australians to take an interest in the affairs of their country and the shaping of its destiny.
"Ireland a Nation." The toast of "Ireland a Nation" was submitted by Bro. T. Hynes in an eloquent speech, during which he referred to the early history of Ireland, her conversion to Christianity, her life and death struggle in penal days to preserve the Faith. and her long and un-
compromising fight for freedom. It was a pleasure to him, an Australian, to give the toast of Ireland a Nation. Ile regretted he could not speak of Ireland to -day as a happy and contented Ireland, but he hoped at their next annual Communion Breakfast they would be able to congratulate Ireland on having attained a lasting All was not well, they knew, peace. with the old Motherland.

Great applause followed the speech, and "God Save Ireland" was sting. In the Bro. Si. O'Dea responded. course of his remarks he said, referring to the burning topic of unrest in Ireland: The trouble in Ireland to -day is not Ireland's ancient enemy; the trouble is between themselves. I admit it is difficult to realise or to understand it, but to get at the root of the trouble you want to do more than read Irish history; you want to travel through 'Ireland. and you want to meet the people, then you can find how it is that such extraordinary differences of opinIreland during her ion exist to -day. long struggle of 750 years has had various different organisations to keep the spirit of her people alive. The last organisation that she had, and that we all considered was the most successful one was that of the Sinn Fein organisation, and the work performed by that organisation was indeed wonderful. After the present settlement was brought about there was a large number of members of that organisation who held the opinion that the fight should have been continued until absolute freedom or a Republic had been gained and many of them will tell you to -day that they took the oath of allegiance to fight till Ireland was free. Now there are other causes also which will account for the differences of A large number of those opinion. who were prepared to accept the treaty arc bitter to -day to think that Ireland should be divided, and I have no hesitation in saying that had the Free State been given to the whole of Ireland instead of 26 counties, Ireland would have been a peaceful and happy The root of the country to -day. trouble is that the British Government is dealing with a divided Ireland, and a section of the Irish people have been compelled to go to the Northern State against their will. What has happened? No sooner had that State been formed than these people, men, women and children, were shot. The trouble or in Ireland to-day is nothing more less than a difference of opinion on the Treaty. Some think they should continue on for ever the fight for a Republic, but I am satisfied a very large majority are prepared to accept the Free State as a first section of their ultimate freedom. Of course a number are opposed to that determinedly: they are determined to see it through Now the question is askif they can. ed why do these people get a followA number of these vesting men ing? who are fighting now in the Republican

HAY -STREET, PERTH. "WHERE THE GOOD HATS ARE."
Dr. Hess. the Centrist deputy, in spec ches before the Reichstag and Landtag,
have not yet been given their share in government. For decades, he pointed out. German Nationalists have combated Catholics and refused them appointments corresponding to their numbers. Now he claimed that an even larger number of appointments to important posts had been given to German Nationalists, who were opponents of the Democratic -Republican A member of form of government. the Nationalists and a former mayor of Cologne, %Vallraf, tried to combat Dr. Hess' statement in the Landtag, declaring that when he was secretary of State he had brougnt Catholics enough to high positions. but that Catholics had not been contented with them, demanding always that Catholic Centrists be chosen. The Jews have great influence in Germany, and have gained many important appointments, due to their money power. it was so before the war. and during the war they were usually placed at the head of important societies for war and welfare. Dr. Rathenau, the Minister who was recently murdered, was a Jew. The Jews are very potent factors in the spiritual life. Many of the most important newspapers and practically all the satirical, modish and theatrical magazines, as well as theatrical agencies, are in their hands, or are supportThey dominate banks ed by them. and business of all kinds. In the remote past these Jews, for the most part. voted for the Nationalist Liberals. Even when they were individually very friendly to Catholics, they never voted Since the war for the Centrist Party. many of them have gone over to the Socialists, who number many Jewish leaders among them. The assassination of Dr. Rathenau, the Jewish Minister was one of the events that may yet be said to have precipitated a crisis in Germany. The German Nationalists have been charged with the murder, and there is no defence to be made of the assassination. It is conceivable that there is a large element dissatisfied with the manner in which the government is being conducted, but this is no excuse for violence and cruelty. Socialists Live in Pomp. The Socialist Government, however, has been seriously blamed for according almost royal honours to the dead Minister, heaping his bier with floral pieces that cost from 20,000 to 80,000 marks. It is well known that many of the Socialist leaders themselves live in great pomp. much like the emperors and princes of other days. In addition to these grave symptoms, there is practically a dictatorship of the streets in Germany. All that has been done by the Socialists for the lower classes has not.made them con"The workman and nothing tentedbut the workman," is a commonly accepted slogan for some, who brook no resistance to their Socialistic aspirations and requests. This is in reality a dictatorship of the street. As a result of this spirit, strikes and demonstrations have been numerous, not only in large towns, blut in villages and hamlets. People are forced to leave their work whether they desire to or not. Those who refuse arc driven from house, office and factory, and forced to join the strikers. One of the greatest of these demonstrations was at the time of the death of Dr. Rathenau. In Berlin, during the funeral, all passers-by and all who watched the funeral were forced to uncover and stand bareheaded whenever the red flag passed. Many young lads and In girls openly insulted spectators. Cologne, Dusseldorf and Ludwigshaven. Catholic ceremonies were mocked and priests insulted, even when in their vestments.

The President also welcomed back to the branch Bro. W. Brown,a PP., who has been away in the Nor' -West for some months. All the members of St. Kevin's, he said, were glad to have Bro. Brown associated with them once again, as that gentleman was an enthusiastic worker. and one who took a keen interst in the affairs of the lodge. Bro.

Everybody enioyed themselves immensely, and apart from a few minor mishaps which occurred on the homeward voyage, everything was very satisfactory. The "Football Trip Fund" still grows apace, having now exceeded the "two century mark," and with organisation and industrious endeavour the trip will be a foregone conclusion, and those who participate in it will make a record, inasmuch as they will be the first Hiberni Ms in the Australian Commonwealth to undertake such a visit to their brothers in the Eastern portion of this Continent.

Already Catholic, Protestant. and Jewish unions and welfare organisations have been found working in Germany for the common cause, and perhaps in their political union, a union that must be based on Christian principles, may come yet the regeneration of the country.

Cole and Nind led their forces to victory and defeat respectively, the scores being: Cole 17, and Nind 40.

It is a tragic truth that if England
were involved in such a war as is now threatened, she would be weak at almost every point where she was strong Everything that so short a time ago.

This war, if it comes and if it concerns us, really will be something like what was deorel and scribed in the nonsense of This really will be a orman A nge 11 war of politicians and not of peoples.

it is really true that our relation to

Even if it had a justification, it was a Philhellene No secret justification. philosophy was preached like a popular religion to suppn-t the war; no propaganda even of the political sort sometimes used against the Turk. We are committed by the most secret of all secret treaties; the unwritten treaties We are tied by the most of finance. the secret of all secret diplomatists; diplomatists who do not even admit more any that they are diplomatists. than thieves admit they are thieves. For the first time in her history England confronts a patriotic problem without a patriotic public opinion. We are caught in a quarrel morally quite unprepared, without even a factitious or superficial national enthusiasm, far less the instinctive and enduting en-

People called it aristocratic; but when Edward Grey stood up and spoke for Belgium, he knew how to gain in twelve hours a backing that was truly democratic. What sort of democratic backing can these demagogues of pluto Grey contrived to get cracy get? Lloyd George everybody with him has contrived to get everybody against him. Toryism does not want to fight the Turk, Liberalism and Labour do not want to fight anybody.

Every*.ndy knew what was meant by Glad stone's sympathy with the Greeks. Everybody knew what was meant by Disraeli's sympathy with the Turks. But to read the official utterances to (lay is to realise how a policy can be Greek without being Liberal, and TurkThe case ish without being 'Imperial. for being pro -Greek is the case for the championship of Christian nationalism: yet our policy has insulted that idea in Poland and twenty other places.

The old policies may sometimes have failed but they could always count on a great mass of educated men who would think and talk and

And if this is true of the Govern. meat, it is equally true of the natural critics of the Government. Take the "Times," or some such leading paper,

and note how it has come to be something worse than its worst error:: in the old days. The "Times" had a case in the days when it could sink to use a creature like Piggott to prcvo its case. It had a cause to fight for, if it looked rather like a cause to forge for. The "Times" said what there was to be said against Russians or for Italians; and it meant what it said. Read the "Times" 4o -day and it is impossible event to say what it says, let alone what it means. For the last year or so of Lord Northcliffe's life it was full of a return to relative sanity, which may not unfairly be called the repentance of that erratic adventurer. Since his death and during his incapacity, it has slowly veered round. and is now vaguely drifting in a new direction; but nobody can say whether it is
towards Athens or Constantinople. It has always been the boast of the
"Times" that it changed with the times, average educated and respectable Engand represented the attitude of the Tishman.
We are
terribly afraid that
it boast is justified.
We fear
it is
only too likely that the "Times" has no notion of what to do next. because the Englishman has no notion of what to do next. The average Englishman is not even allowed to know what he has done last. Out of all these blunders there may come at last one ominous and enormous thing. It will be called the advance of Islam. It may well be the advance of Asia. Islam, which was always a cavalry charge, may yet be the advance guard of more slowly moving millions come to challenge once more the Christian captaincy of the world. Mahomet's religion, which was militant, though it was nothing else, may be only the spear -head of a much longer lance coming against us out of the lands of sunrise. For there is really no limit to the apocolyptic enormities that a few fools may manage to relase by the finger of folly. Doubtless long before that had happened the fools would have been flung to destruction by an awakened democracy; and even the genuine though cynical patriots who defend the Turk, such as the English Tories or the French politicians, would by that time be long past any idea of defending the Turk or of defending anybody but themselves. By that time all Christendom would be on its own defence; with tocsin and trumpet and watch -fire on the tower. By that time the possibility of cooperating with Islam would long have passed; but it has not passed yet, though it is already passing. But it is only by imagining some such immense and almost cosmic catastrophe. issuing from the trivial treasons of our politics, that we can also contrive to imagine any such enthusiasm of defence. Even then we should enthusiasm our only have learned through the war; but not entered We enthusiasm. upon the war with any could comprehend that enthusiasm well enough, if only it were there to be comBut to have a crusade it prehended. is necessary to have a creed. and in this case we have not even a patriotic We have wronged the Mospassion. lem Arabs not for the sake of the

VIZOGROUS SPEWS BY ARCHBISHOP MANNIX.
The ceremony of blessing and opening a new 110,000 school at Coburg was performed recently by his Grace Archbishop Meninx, who delivered a vigorous speech on the occasion. Re. plying to a vote of thanks, his Grace
said:-

I take this formal vote of thanks as some general expression of your affection and loyalty towards me as Archbishop of Melbourne, as a Catholic, as we have been reminded' and as an Austein.n.

The peoPie here in Australia did not seem to have that affection and that esteem for their own country that they should have had. They had not learnt to put Australian interests in the first place. I am not speaking now of re. ligious matters. When I came to Australia first it took me a considerable time to find an Australian flag.

The Anglican Church Congress was held last month in Sheffield. A Hot able event of the day was the sermon preached by the Archbishop of York in the Cathedral. In the course of his address he declared that "while religion attracted the Church repelled." A true religion was wanted, and one did not find it in the Church. Viscount Halifax, president of the English Church Union spoke to members gathered in the Foresters' hall upon "Re -union with Rome and the Holy See." He said that last October he saw Cardinal Mercier. Archbishop of Ma He knew the prominent posilines. tion that the Cardinal occupied during the war, and he was anxious to tell him of the appeal for re -union put out by the Bishops at Lambeth.

Belloc's Solution of the Jewish Problem (By David Goldstein.) Jew," Of course, the Jews of our day are no more responsible for the dental and condemnation of Christ by Caiphas and his followers, and His resultant crucifixion by the Roman soldiers. than are the people to -day, including the Jews, actually responsible for the sin inherited through the fall of Adam. But when the Jew of to -day will not acknowledge that "the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us," if he actually insists upon blaspheming Christ in his Talmud. which he holds to contain "everything that man needs to know," he is culpable as all men are who wilfully refuse to rid themselves of the In their sin of Adam by Baptism. denial of the Messiah will be found the fundamental cause of all that may rightly be called objectionable in the As the author of "The Hebrews.

OA.
From the time the son of David trod this weak and weary world there has been a Jewish problem. This problem It is rightly held is with us to -day. to be ignorance, convention, fear and assumption that has kept many persons, including the Jews themselves, from recognising or acknowledging that there is a Jewish problem. When one considers the international monopolistic ambitions of the Jews-using the term Jew in the popular sense-their growing power and control in finance, government, the theatrical and newspaper world; their influence in the various departments of philosophy, modern economics medicine, and science; how offensive some of their sses who come actions are to other into association with them, there is warrant for concluding that before many decades pass the Jewish problem is likely to come to a destructive climax, unless a solution is found. Hilaire Belloc, after studying this problem for twenty-five years, has sent forth a readable book on "The Jews" (Houghton Mifflin) that is filled with matters of interest and is no doubt being widely read by Jews as well as English-speaking non -Jews in the world. It is written in the spirit of a fair-minded investigator seeking justice, and is therefore free from the animus that seems to permeate all too many books containing an expose of the Jews. Though some Jews have insisted that the author "doth protest too much," that he is not an anti-Semite, there is nothing in the spirit of the 327 pages of his book to warrant the calling of Bellocn anti-Semite. Yet Jewish resentment has been aroused by the book, for the even temper maintained by the author makes the armory of material he presents a doubly effective weapon for anti-Semitism, which is generally more anti -Jew than pro Christian. The book is in a word an Its author lamentably indictment. fails to get at the basic cause of those actions which he shows to be partici., larly objectionable to Christians, and as the "solution" that he proposes is no solution whatsoever the book, while no doubt a good-seller, may be classed as It is with regret that a dis-service. one finds the author bringing in the Church. of which he is a prominent defender, in a manner that does not appear to the writer of this opinion to square with Catholic teachings, and thus he adds pressure to that Jewish power that is positively anti-Catholic. The book deals very insistently and dogmatically with the Jews as a nation, an alien nation among nations, and therefore not capable of being truly loyal citizens of those nations they inhabit. It asserts that there is no solution of the problem unless there is a frank recognition by the Jews, as well as the non -Jews, that "there is a Jewish nation," that the existence of Jews "as a nation politically is as much a fact as the existence of coal or diamonds," that "Jews are citizens of that nation." that any other viewpoint is "fantastic," and a "delusion." Surely, to deal with the Jews who once inhabited a specific territory that was their own, who were once united in language and by common politico -religious institutions, a pure theocracy, who were truly a nation and were dispersed twenty centuries ago, and who have no general desire for nationhood, as for instance the Irish and Poles have had, is to depart from that exact terminology the author holds to be "of first importance." Even though there are Jews, a minority of them, who are enthusiastic over the Jewish' State in Palestine. there is no warrant for insisting that the Jews are a nation in the positive sense in which Belloc uses the term. The chapter on Zionism, of fifteen pages, is devoted to the aspirations of that minority. 'In it is brought forth an interesting point that it were well for Zionists to read and ponder. This chapter may be called a warning to those who are manipulating their financial and political power to force upon the people of the Holy Land a Jewish State. If such a thing is ever fully realised, and the dark clouds already gathering on the horizon of human affairs seem to portend a cyclonic reaction before the ambitious design contemplated has been carried much further, the question of a divided national allegiance is very likely to be raised much to the disadvantage of all Jews whether or not they are supporters of Zionism. Even considering the ambition of the political Zionists, such a thing as a Jewish nation in the proper sense of that term may be said to be non-existent to -day. Those actions which the book rightly holds to be objectionable do not spring from their alleged nationality nor from the assumed desire of the Jews for nationhood. But. rather, upon proper investigation, these objectionable characteristics will be found to spring from a perverse manifestation of those natural religions and racial qualifies with which the ancient Hebrew race was endowed, Belloc s assertion to the contrary notwithstanding. Hilaire Belloc's book is interesting, and the discriminations he sometimes makes. for instance that Bolshevism is "a Jewish movement, but not a movement of the Jewish race," are excellent. Yet one could read the book from cover to cover and fail to get at the basic cause of the hostility that exists towards Jews, for its author does not dig below the surface -phenomena he In fact, Belloc sometimes presents. deals with the Jew as if he were an irresponsible being, calling upon the people "to excuse him bevause h. is a
the other characteristics brought forth as objectionable may, in general, be overcome as they have been overcome in thousands, but in one way only: by Christianising the Hebrew racial qualities. They should be brought to the realisation that they were, but that they are not now, God's chosen children; that what was really great and glorious in the religion of the sons of Abraham they must find embodied in the Church that the Son of David founded; that by being regenerated in the waters of holy Baptism. by partaking of the Bread of Life, and by thus making God's will their will they shall come into the Zion of eternal life. The Jews should be shown that the acceptance of Catholicism does not imply a denial of anything that was truly great On the conin the Old Dispensation. trary, it is but accepting the fulness of the rightful inheritance of Israel. Belloc holds out no Messianic hope whatsoever for the Jew. Once a Jew, in his opinion, always a Jew; the "Jewish nation" must persist. The answer to his query: "Was the Jew less a Jew in race through his Baptism?" is that the Jew is not a Jew in race but in religion. In race he is a Hebrew. The Jew through Baptism becomes a Christian, a Hebrew -Christian, with all the possibilities of those converted Jews to whom St. Paul addressed one of his Epistles. Again, dogmatically to declare that "the Catholic Church is the conservator of an age -long European tradition. and that tradition will not compromise with the fiction that the Jew can he other than a Jew" is as far-fetched an interpretation of the spirit of the Church as calling the brazen perverse Hebraic disregard of Christian courtesy that Belloc witnessed in the cafe in Nimes "courage of the very highest Pope quality." Our Holy Father, Pius XI., by giving the League last July as the time for special prayers for the conversion of the Jews, shows that the Catholic Church does not hold that "tradition," she does not hold it be a "fiction" to believe that the Jew can She believes be other than a Jew. that he may be a Christian if he so wills, and therefore she called upon her children throughout the world to ask the Sacred Heart of Jesus to grant us this sublime favour for the Jew. Coming from a Catholic publicist, it is a sorry disappointment to find Mr. Belloc's book lacking in the appreciation of our moral obligation to work for the conversion of the Hebrew race as the solution of the Jewish problem. Is it any wonder that the volume tapers off into nothingness? 1 he author conditons his "solution" first of all upon
"recognition" and "telling the truth (that) there is a Jewish nation"which there is not! Jewish unity is to be found in religion, and Hebrew unity is to be found in race, but a national unity of the Jews is not to be found. "This statement" that the Jews are a nation, the readers are told, is "so obvious and so simple" that it has only to be stated to be accepted by everyone who makes a "just analysis of the What is the soluJewish question." It is not aggressive legal tion itself? action, it is not expulsion or hostile segregation, as that would only serve for a time, and would leave rankling in the Jewish heart a bitter sense of injustice. The "solution" that is given to us as "practical." as 'the only stable one," as one that will surely be "permanent." is "friendly segregation," a recognition by the Jews themselves that they are an alien people, a separate nationality in every country they to -day inhabit, and they are advised voluntarily to segregate themselves and thus to avoid the drastic legislation The Belloc sees in store for them. author recognises a beginning of this "solution" in the separate Jewish institutions already established, these he We are told that would encourage. "separatist legislation should naturally come from our not should it arise," but side, rather should it come from the Jews themselves, otherwise they would be likely to dig their heels in and insist upon going on as they have been This ''peaceful settlein the past. deliberate ment" proposed, "with vagueness and soft -mess of outline- is a "solution" that is no solution whatsoever, but rather an aggravation. This would be setting up a Jewish State in every nation in the world where Jews are to be found. This "solution" proposed for the Jewish problem is as fantastic as that solution for the ills of society advocated by the Bolsheviki that is so justly castigated by Belloc. I submit that it would be easier to convert the Jewish race to Catholicism than to get them to accept the solution proposed by Belloc. Surely it is better worth working for because in the end something worth while shall have been done.

Christianity was preached in Smyrna at an early date. In the year 93 there existed a Christian community here St. which was directed by a Bishop. John mentions this Bishop in terms of the highest commendation in the Apocalypse. Two letters are extant which were written in the second century from Troas by St. Ignatius of Antioch to the Christians of Smyrna and to Poly' carp, their Bishop. When Polycarp was martyred, the Church of Smyrna sent an encyclical letter to various churches concerning his death. After Poly carp several of the early Bishops were put to death. The Latin See of Smyrna was created by Pope Clement VI. in 1346, and had an uninterrupted succession of titulars until the 17th. century. This was the beginning of the Vicariate Apostolic of Smyrna, a territory of
vast extent.
The Russian Orthodox The Eagles Church
(By E. L. Poison, in "America.") While the zealous men sent by the Holy See to relieve the famine-tragedies and other unspeakable sufferings in work in Odessa, Nikolajevsk. and Rostov on the Don, the Bolsheviks have not relinquished their furious attacks on all forms of Christianity. Only the Mohammedans and the Jews are exempt from their hostility. To cite one example: before the war there was but one synagogue in Moscow; at this time
there are sixteen. Both the Catholic and the Orthodox priests are in the same predicament. Neither hierarchy nor monachism is to The be allowed to survive in Russia. same law applies to the Orthodox perThe Church. and to the Catholic secution of the Catholics is embittered The Bolshevik! by political hatred. are frantic in their fury against Poland, which by her miraculous heroism, dammed their hordes beneath the very For that reason walls of Warsaw. the Catholic priests in Russia, being mostly Polish. no less than the Orthodox clergy are the object of Bolshevist persecution. In the attempts to extirpate Christianity in Russia, the Bolsheviki have found a powerful and unexpected source of assistance in the bishops and priests of the so-called Living Church. In August, the members of this Church which is engaged in warring on the traditions of Russian Orthodoxy, held a meeting in Moscow. They laid the foundation of a reorganisation of the Russian monasteries that have been deprived of their goods and deserted by most of their former occupants. According to their decisions, the'monasteries may survive as agricultural communities. but not as the centre of clerical training, and still less, as the nurMarried priests will series of bishops. be called to the government of the various sees. If the ordained monks wish to take up parish work they have to renounce the monastic vows. They will be entirely subject to the pastors The laymen who emof the parishes. brace the monastic life will have no privileges: they will be forbidden to aspire to the higher ranks of the Hierarchy, and their sacrifice will have to be confined to the rigorous labours of agricultural activity. This is the formula which the Living Church has adopted to bring monachism back to the ideals of the Primitive Church. According to the chiefs of the Living Church, only such persons shall be regarded as members of a parish as declare themselves against "counter-revolution" and partake of the Holy Eucharist: The supreme direction of the Russian Church belongs to the local synod of priests who will meet every three years. Laymen are allowRussian dioed to take part in it. ceses will be divided into administracivil divithe following tive districts, son of the terrtory. Therefore. the number of bishops will be considerably increased, and their contact with the Faithful will become closer. Besides, the task of the Bishops, according to the decisions of the meeting, will be reduced to that "of ordaining priests. and praying for their flock." Two decisions of the synod are worthy of mention. According to one of them, Tolstoi is exalted as one of the pillars of the new church. The Living Church declares that the anathema imHe posed on him was unwarranted. The fact that will be rehabilitated. pamphlets and his last works, fiction alike, denied all the truths of Christian revelation and changed all the doctrines of the Gospel, is of no account. As the old Russian Church tried to canonise John Huss as a martyr of alleged Roman intolerance; so the Living Church attempts to canonise Tolstoi, either to gratify the Bolsheviki, or former Orthodox to discredit the Church. Another declaration contains a veritable panegyric on the Bolshevist revolution. It affirms that by the revolution the Church in Russia was

WHAT AN IRISHMAN MEANS BY MACHREE.
Pray come and interpret this Gaelic for me, And tell what an Irishman means by "Machree."
"'Tis the white of the day and the warmth of the sun; The ripple of the waters that laughingly run:
The sweet bloom of youth, the harvest of years; The gold of all smiles and the salt of all tears; 'Tis the thrill of the hand and the light of the eye; The glow of the cheek and the lip's
parting cry; 'Tis mother! 'tis father; 'tis children and wife; 'Tis all that he lives for and hopes for above; 'Tis an Irishman's heart making vocal
his love; The whole of creation and one isle in the sea: And that's what an Irishman means by 'Machree.'" 'Tis "Machree" that exults in a warm, thrubb:.,.! heart, When he takes his colleen until death do them part; Tis Machree" that he croons to sweet newly -born charms. n a wisp of a child nestles snug in his arms; 'Tis "Machree" that he feels in the twilight of days. When himself and herself look far back on life's ways. -Rev. Francis P. Donnelly, $.J. WORDS OF WISDOM. The Lord never makes us fountains, is the
but only channels. He alone source of all that is of good.
In bodily ailments we look every way Few indeed for help without delay. are they who have such anxiety for their souls. Every hour comes to us charged with duty, and the moment it is past returns to heaven to register itself how spent. Imperfection is the stamp which attaches itself to all the works of men as if to attest their origin.-Emile de Girardin. One cannot make oneself master of all things by possessing them; to make oneself master of them one must despise them all.-Bossuet. Confidence and fear are almost one thing rather than two, when we speak He that fears most trusts .of God. most. He that trusts most fears most. -Father Faber. Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, at all the times you can- to all the people you can, as long as ever you can. Ours is the seed -time; God alone Beholds the end of what is sown: Beyond our vision. weak and dim, The harvest time is end with Him.
--Whittier. SELF. Outside of daily labour, our relations with other persons cannot be happy until Self is forgotten. Shyness and embarrassment arise from self-consciousness, rudeness and irritability from selfishness; resentment and envy are the fruits of self -love. All happy human intercourse depends upon the putting of Self in the background and keeping it there. The closest personal joy in life-love for those nearest and dearest to uscan be fully. enjoyed only by the forgetting of Self, and considering others first and foremost. It is because of the continual intrusion of Self that so many homes lose their happiness and become abodes of Self must be discord and suffering. abdicated before any joy worth the keeping can be gained. This renunciation of Self sounds hard; it looks like a blank wall; but in reality it is God's Gate into human happiness

AN ARTIST'S TRICK. Once, the refrectory walls of a convent needing a new picture, it was decided to have the portrait of a certain saint in the vacant place, and a painter of some renown was called in to do the work. The friars could not afford to give the price asked for which the artist stipulated, but agreed to give him his meals while the task was in progress. He was rather sorry that he had,consented to this, however, when
he found that his food consisted principally of thin soup, bread, sour wine, prunes. and onions. At last the day came for unveiling the picture, when, to the great dismay of all present, it was seen that the figure of, the saint stood with its back turned towards the lookers-on. "You see, Father," said the painter, addressing the astonished prior, "the saint could not abide the smell of onions, and was forced to paint him in that position." No sequel to the story has come Let us hope, though, down to us. that the portrait was properly repaint ed, and that the mischievous artist and
the pcor friars had more agreeable fare. MY PRAYERS.
Do I mean the prayers I offer, do I feel the words I say, When, before our heavenly Father, I kneel down from day to dayWhen, at morning and at evening, I incline to seek His Face And my voice goes up in pleading, to His glorious throne of grace?
When my voice goes up in pleading, does my heart go with it, too? There are many things I ask Him that
His might and grace may do; Petition on petition goes up to meet His ear, Oh. are they such petitions as our Father loves to hear? I tell Him of my wants-my needs, but when I turn away, Do I think of what I asked for, do I watch as well as pray? Do I strive against temptation, do I seek like Christ to live. Do I use aright the blessings that so freely He doth give? My prayers are with much speaking-
yet when I leave the spot, How quickly are its memories spreadhow soon those prayers forgot? Oh, if the thought that gave them birth so lightly treasured be, How can I think God s mercy will remember them for me? Yet, one petition further, Lord! wilt Thou not deign to hear? breathe anew Oh, let Thy Spirit through all my daily prayer. Then help me as 1 pray. to live, kept by Thy Grace divineAnd the glory of the prayer and life alike, 0 Lord, be Thine.
LIFE-A LOOM. It is a fine notion of life to liken it
to the loom. God puts on the warp in those circumstances in which we find ourselves, and which we can not change. The weft is wrought by the shuttle of every -day life. It is niade of very homely threads sometimes, common and seemingly trifling duties, unpromising and unwelcome tasks. But whoever tries to do each day's woik in the spirit of patient loyalty to God is weaving the texture whose other side is fairer than the one he sees.

CRUEL SILENCE. The cruellest lies are often told in silence. A man may have sat in a room for hours and not opened his teeth, and yet come out of that room a disloyal friend or a vile calumniator. And how many loves have perished because, from pride, or spite. or diffidence, or that unmanly shame which withholds a man from daring to betray emotion, a lover, at the critical point of the relation, has hut hung his head and held his tongue!
IMPERFECT HUMAN NATURE. In the matter of bodily health, there are diseases which can not be cured, wounds which will lease us maimed or lame to the end of life; constitutional maladies which can be controlled and
THE UNITY OF THE CHURCH, As the hammer welds the iron into a closer mass, so the Indissoluble unity of the Catholic Church is, by persecu-
-tion, tested, confirmed, and revealed.
For eighteen centuries the mystical vine has stood, a living tree, rising in its stature, spreading in its reach. unfolding its leaves, multiplying its fruits, showing its imperishable vitality in every branch and in every spray.-Car. di nal Manning. A POET'S GOLDEN DEED.
The celebrated French poet, De Musset, was walking one evening on the beach at the little watering-place of Croisie, surrounded by a group of joyous friends. They had just left the dinner -table. Among all the gay company that day the happiest person was

In fact, one coin was all that now remained to him-a new louis d'or-which he was tossing in the air, laughing meanwhile at his poverty. As the party walked along, they suddenly came upon a little girl in rags and tatters. fast asleep, with her head The resting on a heap of seaweed. jests and laughter ceased, and the merry party stopped short. De Musset drew near and gently placed in the palm of the child's hand the louis d'or, his last remaining resource. His example was followed by dearly all present; and the poor peasant -child, when she awoke, must have wondered at the pile of gold pieces, and especially that one should have dropped into her hand. , STAMPS OF VARIOUS NATIONS. A unique stamp collection would be one containing all the religious stamps issued by the various European and American countries. Portugal issues stamps bearing the effigy of Saint Anthony of Padua. Hungary. I3avaria. and the Virgin Islands have stamps with the image of the Virgin. The shipwreck of Saint Paul is recalled on certain stamps of the Island of Malta. There are two Belgian stamps picturing Saint Michael. In 1900 Brazil issued a commemorative stamp picturing an angel flying through the heavens. The priest Hidalgo is frequently represented on Mexican stamps, and the United States has a stamp representing the Jesuit Marquette preaching to the Indians. Many Swiss stamps have a cross. One of the stamps of the Dominican Republic shows an open Bible, and one of the stamps of Venezuela represents Columbus planting the cross on the new world he discovered. In addition to all these, many stamps of various countries represent famous cathedrals.
CARRYING YOUR POINT. Carrying your point is not the most important thing in the world. Pride and self-will may urge you to conquer, if you can, but it often happens that yielding is the higher. truer victory. To get the best of an argument by a sa:-castic turn which wounds a friend, to get your own way at the cost of discouraging and disheartening someone else, to win by taking an advantage which is doubtful, if not evidently unfair, is to pay too high a price for victory. Other things are better worth while thaif merely carrying your point.
THE POWER OF GOOD EXAMPLE. The following letter from a "Grate ful Convert" to the editor of the Brooklyn "Tablet" tells its own story: "Your readers may be interested in the story of my conversion to the Catholic -
faith, though there is nothing unique or sensational about it. Three years ago I was, not only not a Catholic, but I had been a bitter anti-Catholic. brought up in a section or the country where Catholics were few in number. Bigotry and prejudice were the breath of my nostrils. Nothing was too bad for me to believe of the Church; for I was living in an atmosphere of hatred towards all things CaAs I look back now. I wontholic. der why it never occurred to me to question the truth of the stories I heard about priests, nuns, etc. But. as a matter of fact, such a thought never came to me. . .

We wonder what emotions stir the general who. from his point of vantage, watches ten thousand men go cheering up a ridge into the very jaws of death, knowing that everyone who falls is sealing the fate of a great cause? What thoughts arise in the orator as he watches men swaying like bending corn beneath the thrilling thunder of his eloquence, and knows that he is stirring them for good or ill to surrender their wills and do his bidding?
