schools. The request was sent by the Ministry for Church Affairs to the assembly of bishops of the State Church. Officially, Catholics are barred as history teachers on grounds that they would not be able to teach properly the history of the Protestant Reformation. In practice, however, the decision rests with school principals, and several Catholic teachers have been history teachers in public schools in recent years. The question is understood to have come up at
this time because the Government would like to sign an intetnational convention upholding the equal right to work for all citizens.

His Eminence Thomas
Cardinal Tien, S.V.D , a quiet, mildmannered fugitive from the Chinese Reds, has not been in his See city of Peking since 1949, but he expects some day to return there and die of old age. In an interview, China's first Cardinal traced his optimism to the "growing rift" between the Communists of China and This eventually lead to the Reds' downfall, he predicted. In the meantime, both continue their war on the Church. About 14,000. priests, H.E. Cardinal Tien Sisters and laymen have died as martyrs in China, he said. Of 19 churches in the Peking area, including his cathedral, 15 have been turned into Communist meeting halls or government schools. The four churches still open, he said, are administered by priests who have co-operated with the

THIRD ORDER OF ST. FRANCIS The trust foundations of society are fourfold, namely, authority, obedience, justice and charity. Should any or all of these be ignored then society cannot function properly. One of the outstanding virtues of St. Francis was his fervent charity. Even when he was dying he expressed great concern lest he be a trouble to his brethren, and finally resided to have himself carried down to Portiuncula to save them bother. In the time of St. Francis licence had warped the morality of the people and particularly was the virtue of charity missing. It was the great charity of Francis which fitted him especially for the great social reform he sought to inaugurate. This love led to the call to charity in the rule of the Third Order: "Let them zealously exercise kindliness and charity among themselves and towards their neighbours. Let them take care whenever they can do so, to settle quarrels." Fraternities of the Third Order are established at Perth, Victoria Park and Midland Junction. Enquiries cnay be addressed to Rev. Father Berard, O.F.M., 53 Great Northern Highway, Midland Junction. The monthly meeting of the Perth fraternity will be held on Sunday, February 28, at 3 p.m., in the Children of Mary Chapel, Victoria Square. Prior to the meeting there will be instructions for novices and postulants commencing at 2.30 p.m.
