Wallace Davies gave a recitation entitled, Christmas Day in the workhouse: after which a spirited and eloquent address was delivered by the Rev W. Spurgeon, of Cardiff, on Good Templary, its aims and objects." In the course of his remarks Mr Spurgeon referred to a licensed victuallers' meeting held recently at Cardiff, when Mr Lascelles Carr, one of those present, was re- ported to have stated that if the Master was on earth at the present time he would have been present at that meeting, and he (Mr Carr) main- tained he had good authority for making that statement. He (Mr Spurgeon) believed that was one of the greatest blunders Mr Carr had ever made, for he could see Mr Carr was referring to the feast at Cana of Galilee. The temperance question, the speaker went on to state, was be- ginning to make itself felt in the land, and he urged his hearers to do all they could to get the liquor traffic placed under popular control, for he thought that the drink traffic was a system of robbery. Females as well as males were admitted to the Order of Good Templars, and he was glad to say they were doing good work. He hoped the day was not far distant when their efforts would be crowned with success. A recitation entitled, Murdered by drink," was given by Bro. W. E. Clarke, after which a collection in aid of the lodge funds was made, and the meeting terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman.

THE ROWING CLUB ENTERTAINMENT. — We beg to call attention to the entertainment to be held, under the auspices of the Barry Amateur Rowing Club, on Wednesday evening next at the Market Hall, Barry. Amongst the artistes who will take part are the popular Miss Gertrude Drinkwater (of the Royal Welsh Ladies Choir), and Mr S. W. Allen. Ventriloquial and character sketches, banjo solos, etc., will be given, and a good evening's enjoyment can be looked forward to. The prices of admission are moderate, and a crowded audience ought to be the result. Tickets may be obtained of the committee, or of the t secretary, Mr A. Trevor Roberts.

POOLE'S MYRIORAMA. —What we stated last week in anticipation of the visit of Harry Poole's world-famed myriorama was not, we are pleased to find, in any way over-drawn, for the magnificent exhibition which is on view at Barry Market Hall every evening this week is in every respect a brilliant one, the views being highly excellent and artistic, while the illuminations of the same are of the grandest and most realistic possible. Those who miss paying a visit to Poole's Myriorama at Barry during the present week will lose a treat. In addition to the exhibiton. a capital variety en- tertainment is provided at agreeable intervals. A morning exhibition and performance will also be given to-morrow (Saturday), at 2.30.
