OL lllc IcllEtIkS llltluC Wllll regard 10
the Germans in the United States, as
Irishmen there. With rega d to the
Germans in Australia. / do not think
they surpass the Irish in any way
But one secret of success of the Ger
mans in Australia-and it is n great
secret of SUGGESTS that one of their
first anXieties is to get good Irish
wife (hcar, hear, and laughter). And
when the German husband gets an
Irish wife he is sure to have a happy
home in which thrift and virtue flour
ish (applause). But with regard to
the sons Of Ireland in Australia,
would say that whatever we have Of
Christian piety, whatever we have Of
true enlightenment, and whatever we
have Of herOism in fighting on the
battlefield and guarding the shores of
Australia, comes in Il great measure
from the sons Of Ireland. The first
great quality that those who are out
side our fold have from time to time
told me that they have been struck by
in a special way is the singular unity
that pervades the ranks of allCatholics
the Catholic laity. the Catholic
priesthood and the Catholic Episc0-
pate. l am proud of the union that
exists amongst the Catholic laity,
priests, and Bishops mt home; but
must say that ten times more telling
to the outer world is that marvellous
unity that binds us all together in
that remote Land of Australia (ap-
plause). Another thing that strikes
those who are not of our fold in Aus
trllia is the singular pety of Aus
trala's Catholic sons. ] have known
at times rs many as two thousand
Protestants to come to our cathedral
on procession days; and if they are
asked why they come there, and why
they do not 20 to their own cathedral,
they will tell YOU: "WelI, we are
able to appreciate true piety, and we
come to see the wors.ippers in your
cathedral, and the perfect expression
of what we believe to be the realiza-
ton Of true Catholic picty." That is
great encouragement on the part of
those who are not of our church, and
1t is a source of great consolation to
the children of our church. Another
great feature is the invincible deter
mination of our Catholic people to pre-
serve to their children in the fullest
measure the blessing of religious cdu-
cation. We don't get farthing from
the government in Australia for our
primary, secondary, or higher cduca-
tion. All has to be carried on at the
expense and through the heroism and
devOtcdness of our own sons. Thanks
be to God, that heroism and devoted
ness have never been wanting. We
have never closed a school in the dio-
cese Of Sydney yet, and with the
blessing Of God we will never close
such religious school (applause).
am confident that Australia is n more
genuine republic, more genuine in the
full measure Of it's freedom and the
exercise of that freedom, than l have
seen in any other country. We have

they themselves We're too improvident
and careless to learn a trade. AS a
result of the combined action of the
Board of Industries and Agriculture we
may look forward to an increase in the
number of skilled laborers in ireland
as we'll as to an improvement in the
quality of their work. We cannot,
however, have much confidence as
long as the moral defect continues.
We should never forget that Irish
Catholics, the peasantry in particular,
have but recently emerged from a
practical slavery, and that the vices
Of slaves have had time to eat into
the national character. These vices
are carelessness. improvidence, idle
ness, want Of thrift, and moral cow
ardice. How easy it is to force an
Irishman, out Of false shame, to spend
on luXuries what is wanted for the
immediate, not to speak of the future
necessities of his wife and children,
and he will parade in the public house
his Disregard for money, and when he
goes home will scowl ut his wife or
child if they show signs of want or
anxiety. 1t is for the priests of Ire
land to strengthen this weakest side
of the national character, and so
hasten the day when the Irish laborer
may be not only skilled but disciplined,
thrifty and anxious to lave little
laid by. l have sometimes asked my
self whether an exhortation in this
sense may not be the wiser meaning
of the advice and warming we have
received from our friends in America,
who are too polite to tell us bluntly
that our people are not what they
ought to be and might be made.
Certainly, the more our waGe-earn-
ers cultivate the virtues to which l
have referred the more fit they will
be to elnigrate, and the more well
come to their kinsmen beyond the At
lantic. The less need, also, they will
have to leave their own country, for
it is such men and women only who
are able to live at home and build up
