tion, and though it is observed Rev, O F. Allen. very strictly it is readily dispensed whenever there is any particular reason. If any of the important feasts falls upon that day, such as Christmas or any other of the "Holidays of Obligation." the abstinence Is automatically aus- pended. On other occasions it rests with the Bishop of the diocese to decide what the ex- ceptions are to be in time of sickness, as for instance during the cholera epidemic of last year, a dispensation is very commonly given. Similarly, where special
reasons exist. dispensation can be given to individuals or familles. One of the causes that most rea- dily excuses from the obligation is poverty. for it is otten not within the power or a poor person to select one kind of food rather than another.

In patient obedience to a patient God, let us labour to dissolve with the uni- versal solvent of Love, the adamant of error-self-will, self-jüstification and selt love,--which wars against spirituality and is the law of sin and death."

The east of St. John Bosco better known stil as Don Bosco, falls on the Chinese New Year's Day this year. It is only a few years since Don Bosco, one of the greatest social workers' of the last century, was numbered among the saints, and it is in fact only fifty years since his death-Mon- day will actually be the ruleth anniversary. St. John Resco, who Is the founder of the Salesian Congregation, was a priest Turin who combined in himself a special gift for dealing with boys and remarkable organising power. His work for the poor, orphan children of Turin was one of the most successful efforts ever made to help boys who were destitute and in danger of falling into evil ways. His control over them was such a personal one that many doubted the possibility of spread- ing the work to places which he

GLYN PHILPOT" R. A. The death of Mr. Glyn Warren Philpot, R. A. removes one of the most original-perhaps some would say one of the few original artists -in the Royal Academy. It was portrait painter that he first achieved fame and heas barely forty when he was elected A. R. A. in 1915. He was a Lon- doner by birth and got his early training in art at the Lambeth School of Art under Philip Con- nard, R. A. It was when he left the field of portraiture that he exhibited the originality that brought some of his paintings Into the category of "problem pictures." His taste for the macab- re was evident in much of his work. There was no doubt about the quality of his technical skill
