Christian or Communist. No one can be in different or neutral. The broad- minded soul can no more view the red terror in the distance. All things are good to the good, no more stands. Cardinal ~~ Mindszenty's crucifixion helps to clarify the sincere conviction of the Communist rulers. Naked power finds only opposition in those who fight to preserve. the soul with. a re- sponsibility to God. Communism is not economic or political. It is a' re- ligion. Its first principles are hatred and terror. It has a Pope and Car- djnals and a priesthood as real as the Catholic Church. fallible teaching. Communism is Socialism logically concluded, Ques- tions answered hy mail. --Father McGivney AS LET hae Ld Presbyterial W. M. S.

It was indeed heartening in this our first lent Fund. } : We managed, more or less, to get seats for everyone, and it really was funny to see the male members of our Club dashing around to get benches, and as more and 'more people arrived, so they ran around again, Mr, Bob Pickard, our own president, opened the evening with a welcome to the Oshawa Club, and then with its cast of thirty, male and female, the show began, Everybody enjoyed it.

These men drew real special notice as they were very funny Metcalf as the "Interlocutor", while the chorus gang their songs in a way it was a joy to hear. I noticed, too, that though the Revue was on the gen- eral lines of a Minstrel Show, the songs were all very original and the scene changing for. the second half, added a lot to what we all thought was a pretty good performance. Vernon Osborne, as the Director, Dr. S. George Werry, A.T.C.M,, as Director of Music, and stage manager, Stanley Gomme, should be congraite lated. d Show over, we adjourned to the was served to over one hundred people and here T should mention, we had an added treat, some members of the Ux- bridge 4-1 Another Club, including their Mr. and Mrs. President," George and Mrs. Black.

Clifford Smith gave a few President of the Happy.Double Club, Mr. Love, and Mr. George. Black of the 4-1 Another Club gave thanks. Lunch was a very happy affair, after which Merwood 'Dale sang a very amusing song and we finished the evening with Auld Lang Syne, and so once again thanks to the Happy Doubles Club and the people of Port Perry.
