The annual meeting of the Tig- nlsh sub-division of the Catholic Women's League was held at the Convent Assembly Hull on April 14th.

The meeting opened with prayer by Chaplain Rev. J. A. McDonald. The roll call was read and the min- utes of the inst meeting and last annual meeting read and adopted.

We are a unit of a great National Organization established just ele- ven years ago by o. group of uo- men representing small societies from Edmonton to Halifax. Tho League. self constituted, has deve- loped into o strong National Orga- nization and in functioning, grap- ples with economics, social and re- ligious matters of Dominion-wide import, especially the furthering of tho interests oflMother Church and for the protection of the Home~the Mother-cell of the Na- tion. Growing importance of the League's position is recognized to- day throughout Canada. Every- where it is asked to take it's place in the front line of public endea- vors. His Holiness Pope Plus XI gives the League his very heartiest approbation.

There are many possibilities in our centre that the future holds in ‘store for us. Let us continue to ‘work faithfully-let us deal in Charltywith each other~1et us show what the Catholic Womenﬁ: League means, then, we shall cx-

The National Convention of the

Catholic Womcns League was held ,in Charlottetown during the past

summer and proved successful

from every pohit of view. Twenty three out of twenty scvcn dioceses ‘were represented. To Mrs. W. J. Ilifrlntyre of Charlottetown has ‘fallen ihc honor of being unani- mously vlcctcd as National Presl- rlnit. Knowing her natural abili- lics which orc supported by unil- miled courage and great sacrifice, we nre not surprised that the de- legates of 1931 Convention made choice of her for thc high office of National President.

On the occasion of the departure of our beloved Chaplain Rev. Dr. G. J. McLcllan from our midst, a reception was held in his honor, at which an address was read, accom- panied by the presentation of s. beautifcl Marble Crucifix. The warmth of his expression of grati- tude was unmistakable.

At the beginning of the year s. Church Committee was formed under the direction of a capable convenor. Their work which con- siseted chiefly of cleaning and de- corating the Sanctuary and Sta- tues, donating and cleaning lights, is highly commendable. The Sanctuary Fund was increased and

I two Aladdin lamps were purchas-

ed for the Sanctuary. Our Fi- nance Committee hasworked un- iiringiy. The approximate amount nf money raised was $373.17 8nd

$338.23 disbursed. Our activities to raise funds consisted of a lot- tery. a High Tea, two plays staged and card parties held at the homes of different members. These have not only added materially to the funds but also provided social entertainment between members and their friends. To all those members who opened their homes on these occasions, I wish to ex- press my sincere thanks.

social service work occupied a large part of our programme. A number of families received assist- ance in the matter of food and clothing. Our Committee was ai- so responsible for the provision of clothing and bedding for families that had been visited by much sickness during the winter months, also for the making over of old clothing as well as new. Well fil- led hampers were distributed to needy families at Christmas. Our usual donation was sent to St. Vincent's Orphanage.

The Convener of the Sick Com- mittee has credltably discharged her duties. Towards education we have contributed as in previous years.

Our obligations both National and" Diocesan have been met. A donation at Christmas was sent to the Sisters of Service. The Sis- ters of Service are the -‘ children of the Catholic Women's League. The results of their work except in a few cases are hid- den and unobtrusive, but the good accomplished by them is far more reaching than will ever be known. Our magazine subscriptions are paid, which go to support the only Catholic Women's agazins in the Dominion. The Canadian Lea- gue is the mouth piece of our Lea- gue, and the ITIIOCIIH5 link among our sub-divisions from coast to coast.

A step well worth encouraging would be to induce our young girls to become interested in our work. whether to become members of the sub-division or to form a. Junior club, as exists in other centres. In conclusion I wish to express to our Chaplain, who has shown us his paternal interest, our ap- preciation of his interest in our; work. It is fitting also that a. wcil deserved tribute be paid to our past president for many helpful suggestions offered. to our offi- cers, convcnors of the different committees, to all members who have so wcll discharged their du- ties and contributed in so many ways to the progress of our sub- division, for the success of the dif- ferent undertakings. was surely duo to the co-operation of our ex- ecutive and members. Again I would ask that peace and harmony prevail. ‘We must be true members of our great Or- ganizntion, overlooking each others short-comings. ever keeping be- fore us our Ideal of true Christian Womanhood, Our Lady of Good counsel-Our Patroness and In- spiration.

'Rev. R. M oorhead Legato Extends Words 0f Comfort To Those Burdened With Worry and Anxiety.

The following interesting sermon‘ was delivered by Rev. R, Mosrhead Legato ill St. James Church last evening:

Isaiah X)’.‘.{llI l7: "Thine eyes

' shall sec the King in his beauty;

they shall behold lhc 151d that is very far off"

These we the words of a man whose faith in God remained brave and unshaken when the times in which he lived were utterly out of joint and the heart of his native country was crushed and bwken- In order to see the beauty of the words and the grandeur of the man who spoke them. let us glance at the historical setting of the text.

Hezekiah, King of the Jews, had been on the throne some twenty‘ five years when a. storm that had been threatening broke upon the Holy City in all its fury_ Sennach- crib, King of Assyria, and hered- itary enemy of the Jewish nation. was advancing in his proud progress against Jerusalem with destruction In h‘s heart. It was an invasion so notable that one of our poets has Sung the familiar song about it: “The Assyrian came down like a wolf on the fold—w'il-h his cohorts all gleaming in purple and gold— and the sheen on his spears was like stars on the sea~whcre the blue waves roll nightly on deep Gal- ilee." I" '

Sennacherib had Victoriously ov- errun the then known world, and

his approach on Jerusalem was a- waited by the citizens in hopeless fear. And Isaiah, the Jaws great statesman, wus practically the only man in thstgbeloasured ﬂty who went about with" his new" gh and a smile on his face. He kept on tell- ing the Jews that the advance of the enemy would be checked by the Divine interference, but no one would believe him. The faith and courage of the Jews began to de- sert them. But against every dis- heartening ifgn Isaiah stood con- fident, osoinst every instance of the people's unbelief he was prompt. All would yet be well, he insisted, because God had said it would- And if ever o. man was tempted to for- sake his own faith, Isaiah was. As the enemy attack drew near, panic and piofligacy and riots broke out in the city. The mental balance of the citizens was thrown out of gear, and their patriotism completely collapsed. Isaiah did his best to stabilize them and to bring them in reason, but in vain. And then came the awful day when the Jews looked from their city walls, and saw all tns glittering panoply‘ of their would be destroyers knock- ing at the gawi. And then their eyes turned inward and beheld their beloved King, as frightened as the meanest of his subjects, bowed to the ground in despair, wearing the mourning garments of sack cloth, and the ashes, emblem of death. sprinkled upon his head. And even in the face of those two disheart- ening sights, Isaiah stands up and cries out with ringing voice: "Keep your heads, and keep up your ‘hearts In spite of every threatening appearance. Gods word must comeI truc» He has promised to stand by us, and He will. “Listen" he says, "your eyes will yet, and before long, sec your beloved King raised from the earth sitting once again on his throne, clad, not in sackcloth, but in h’s beautiful royal robes, and you shall look forth from these walls and behold our lovely land of fair distances cleared of every ves- tlge of the invading enemy."

And even so it was. Under me very walls of Jerusalem, the angel of death, as the story goes, breath- ed in the fees of the enemy. some commentators explain the miracle as lioving been a virulent and speedy epidemic like the black plague that decimated the enemy hosts, And the pride of the haughty Sennachorib woo laid low-and glad nus ﬁlled JonIolem-snd the King stood before nu owplo 0m» more clad u’: nu beautiful kingly ap- psrsl-ond once more the wandered at will throush the bor- ders okthcir fair land-for God had said it,’ and His word could not fail.

Isaiah, the only man in a whole community, who in the, face of A national calamity of the grinuncst description, and with all the prob- abilities against him so ferns could be secn, dares to be an optimist and pin his faith to his God. I want. you to look at ths man, and to think deeply about the stand he took and kept- Ifihe had acted 11kt! his fellow citizens and turned cow- ard-if he had defaulted after all tho preaching he nod done about faith in God, those Jews could never have believed either in Isaiah o1- in=God agaiirlfhe fact is that those Jews, though they had lost faith in God themselves depended on Isaiah sticking to his faith for their sakes. "

Pﬁvscnt Parallel Case

‘the case is the very same today. ‘ﬂiers are lots of people whose faith, in the present crisis that has overtaken the world, is becomi decidedly shaky-but those very people are looking to theChurch, to you and me, not. to lose our faith in God- Just as Jerusalem absolute- ly needed Isaiah's faith, so the world today needs your faith and mine.

The world today is depending on the Church to keep things on the level. If the Church collapsed to- day, if your and my faith in God failed, anything might happen, an- archy, panic, revolution. You and I have in set the pace for faith in God in these difficult days. You and I have the faith of others to consider as well as our own faith. Therefore it is up to the Church, it is up to you and me to stand fast lke Isaiah and hold the for; with our teeth sct and our eyes undilu- med looking into the hills of God from whom alone cometh our help.

The church has the opportunity today of rendering to a distressed and aimless world the greatest ser- vice it has ever rendered-hand when I say the church I mcnn you and me, the Church's mcmbcrs—“I will trust and not be afraid"

The secret of Isaiah's faith was just this-that God was more to him than anyone or anything else was. And a faith like that is a tre- mendous offset bo the inevitable and unexpected calamities of llfs- St Paul takes his stand beside Isaiah when he utters his well known words: "If God be for us, who can be against us?" It was not that Isaiah was merely an cptimist by temperament. It was his faith in God that made him an optimist. IFOr faith in God does make optim- ists. No amount of mere tempera.- mental optimism could have kept Isaiah buoyed up and firm to his- purpose with those spears of thc' Assyrians but a stones throw from his breast. No amount of more tem- nersmentll optimism could have, KEN him Ifisistlnil to that distracted populace that in an hour or two‘ their King, now grovellingin the dusg would rise in his beauty. and. that the lovely land of distances‘ now in the grip of a reientlsss sti- emy would shortly be free “sin. Brethren, these noble ond faithful words of finish span the centurion

heart be troubled, neither let it be

afraid." Foifh u Necessity

It all comes in giro-that if io man just tries to cultivate o calm, true faith in God, and if he takes good care to give his faith o. chance.- he can look awoy beyond any zet- back that comes go him to the premise and presence of Him who has promised never to leave him nor forsake him, and be undis- turbed. I-Ie can rejoice in that creed which Tennyson has penned for us: "I can but trust that good shall fall a; lost, for off, st last, to all and ovary winter change to spring," and in that oven sweeter mood of Browning: "God's in I-fls heaven, a1l’s right with the world." '

Isaiah stood thst day looking up- on two scenes, tho dcsoistod Kins and the invaded ooimtryJ-wo scen~ es which would have knocked the bottom out of the optimism of any ordinary man. He might have said to himself: "I will not try to paint too bright a picture, for such would be Udiculous in the face of the dark things which ire happening and threatening." But he says noth- ing of the kind. ‘rho optimism which was born and kept ‘alive _ in his heart by his faith in God overlays the picture which he paints like a sun-burst breaking through the darkening clouds.

The great John Wesley was one day wolkin: along o country road when ho mot o mm, ond entered into conversation. This man began topourbut histroubiss tothe famous preacher. "I am almost driv- en cron by anxiety," ho sold, “and I don't know whotI shall do with all this worry and trouble that hi! come upon me." At that moment Wesley noticed o cow in the field ha’ side them looking over the stone fence. "Do you know," sold Wesley, "vmy that cow is looking over that stone wail?" "No," replied his troubled companion, “Wcll," said Wesley, "she is looking over it be‘ cause she can't see through it- And that is what is the matter with you my friend. You are will to look through your woll of trouble, in- stead of looking ovsr it and above it." Why not use the faith you soy you have in God to help you i0 lift up your eyes and look over tho woll instead of- blinding and distressing yourself by trying to do the impos- slblc.
