ATHLETICS IN PRESTATYN
ATHLETICS IN PRESTATYN Formation of a Cricket Club. The winter having come to an end, and with it the programme of the local Gymnastic Club, the question of how to keep the members of this organisation together during the summer months has presented itself. There was a general desire that a cricket club should be formed in the town, and with this end in view a meeting was held at the Gymnasium on Monday, over which Councillor W. Inglefiold presided. There was a fair attendance, and at the outset the Chairman spoke of the advisability of adopting some means of retaining the comradeship which existed between the membars of the gymnasium. The formation of a cricket club would certainly tend towards this. After further remarks it was definitely decided to form a club, and Mr Wynne was appointed hon. sec. pro. tem. It was reported that between 80 and 40 names had already been sent in as likely members of the club, and it was felt there was every prospect of a good start being made. A sub-committee was appointed to go into details, and another meeting is to be held at the British Schools tonight (Friday) at 8 o'clock, for the purpose of enrolling members, electing officers, etc.

I INTERESTING ITEMS. I
I INTERESTING ITEMS. I The" Messiah." Our readers should be reminded of the Choral Society's production of Handel's Messiah," which is fixed for performance on Thursday the 17th. The fact that Mr G. W. Jones occupies the position of conductor is sufficient guarantee for a rendering worthy of this great oratorio. The principals engaged. are prominent in musical circles, and many will remember that the bass soloist (Mr A. M. Proctor) has several times visited Pres- tatyn in that capacity with great acceptance. The well-known orchestra of Mr Horace Haselden is also engaged for the occasion. Tickuts cUt now to be obtained from members of the Choral Society, and seeing that a full house is necessary in order to make the con- cert a fianancial success, it is hoped that resi- dents and visitors will render every support. Camps at Prestatyn. We are glad to be able to state that the Manchester Battalion of the Boys' Brigade will again make Prestatyn its headquarters during Whitsuntide, when about 900 will be under canvas. At first it was thought the Brigade would not encamp at Prestatyn this season, owing to a difficulty regarding the ground they had last year, but Mr Williams (Plas- tirion) was approached, and a very amicable arrangement was come to with the brigade authorities for the hire of a field on Meliden Road, close to Bryntirion. The Adelphi Lads' Club, numbering some- where near 200 members, are also coming.to Prestatyn again at Whitsuntide, and will en- camp in a field next to that occupied by the Boys' Brigade. Wedding. On Thursday at Prestatyn Church the marriage took place of Mr John Munroe, of Talacre, Llanasa, eldest son of Mr and Mrs Munroe, of Aberfeldy, Scotland, with Miss Mary Jane Jones, daughter of Mr John Jones, Nant Farm, Prestatyn. The officiating clergy were the Revs. 0. J. Davies, M.A., vicar, and W. Loyd Protheroe, B.A., vicar of Llanasa. The bride, who carried a beautiful bouquet of flowers, was given away by her father. The bridesmaid was Miss D. G. Jones, Morvan, Rhyl, and Mr J. W. Jones of Ynys Farm, near Rhyl, acted as best man" to the bridegroom. Relatives and friends were afterwards entertained to a wed- ding breakfast at Nant, when the toasts usual to such occasions were duly honoured. Later in the day the happy couple departed by train for Manchester where the honeymoon is to be spent. Removal. We notice that Mr T. E. Hughes, chemist, is removing from his old shop to more commodious premises at Victoria Buildings, High Street, where he hopes to be able to be in a position to cope with an increasing trade.. Address to Lord Milner. With reference to the public address to Lord Milner which a committee of noblemen and gentlemen are promoting local signatures to be attached to the address are now being secured by Capt. Miller. Close on 100 names (which are confined to adult gentlemen) have already been gathered from this district, and it is expected many more will be forthcoming. Our Local Parliament BY A RATEPAYER. The Council have made a new departure by limiting the several committees to seven members. Under these circumstances longer debates may be expected, and more informa- tion will be given to the public if our Editor can afford the necessary space. This is as it should be, and it is to be hoped that rate- payers, when they get a larger insight into the sayings and doings of their representatives will have less cause for complaint. Already, two Council meetings have been held, both of them extending over about two hours and a half. One effect of this extended discussion will be that the Chairman will find it neces- sary to more strongly enforce the standing orders. <:I> <I> <I> The Council will be busy next week dis- cussing the estimates in committee. When these are approved of the next step will be to fix the rate for the year. The general impression seems to be that it will remain at the same figure as last year. That will probably satisfy-the ratepayers, for even after the very optimistic statement of the late Chairman no one expected a reduction in the rates, and there have been many who feared an increase. Considering that 20 per cent is now taken off to form the rateable value, 5/- in the £ is not excesssive. It is only equal to about 4/3 with 10 per cent reduction as formerly.

CHRIST CHURCH SCHOOL.
CHRIST CHURCH SCHOOL. A Successful Concert. The popularity of school concerts in Pres- tatyn was further demonstrated on Wednesday night, when the Town Hall was crowded with a highly appreciative audience, the occasion being the annual entertainment given by the scholars attending Christ Church Schools. Mr W. J. P. Storey (Rhyl) was announced to preside, but owing to a family bereave- ment, he wrote to say he was unable to be present, Mr Scott (Chairman of the Council) stepping in to fill the breach. 0 The programme submitted was a very in- teresting one, and the excellent manner in which the children carried out their parts proved very conclusively that Mr Williams (the headmaster) Miss Foden, and Miss Lees, had worked exceedingly hard to bring the scholars to such perfection-in fact the acting would have done credit to much older and experienced performers. One of the features of the entertainment was the dresses worn, the costumes being very appropriate for the parts performed." Mrs E. T. Williams was responsible for the making of these, and they lent themselves very materially to the effectiveness of the various items. The stage was very prettily decorated with a profusion of plants and evergreens, in ad- dition to a quantity of coloured draperies. The programme opened with a Chinese song and drill by A. Kelly, M. Jones, Mary Hughes, W. Davies, M. Barlow, and Lily Bennett. The girls looked very quaint in their costumes, and they were loudly applauded. Tommy Atkins' Army proved to be a very acceptable item, Captain Parnell being in command of quite a martial-looking lot of youngsters. The boot-black brigade was a song given by a number of the 1st class boys, who gave a practical demonstration of their calling, to the accompaniment of a whistling chorus, etc. The infant girls followed with a pretty little song, entitled Doll's Lullaby," and then the infants gave a song which was loudly applauded. The next item was among the most suc- cessful of the evening, being a character sketch descriptive of "Washing Day," by the elder scholars. All the inconveniences relative to washing-day were experienced, but a little fairy arrived on the scene and soon put matters right. The infants and younger scholars were very successful in a little sketch called Days of the week," each day being typically represented by a little maid. A representation of a barber's shop provided a deal of amusement, and the topical verses introduced were much appreciated. The boys taking part in this item were John Edwards, Greslcy Jones. Arnold Jones, John Hughes, Evan Junes, Harold Roberts, John Pinchbeck. A hat drill by some prettily-attired little girls brought part one to a close. Before proceeding with part two, Mr Scott made a few remarks, stating that the School during the year had gained in efficiency, and the attendance was very good. He also alluded to the new Education Bill. They wanted peace, but on no account must religion be banished from their schools (applause). The Vicar then stated that Mrs Scott had kindly consented to distribute the prizes, in the place of Mrs Storey, and he knew of no one in Prestatyn who was more entitled to the honours of that evening than Mr and Mrs Scott, who had done so much for the Church and the schools (applause). The prizes were then distributed by Mrs Scott, the principal recipients being Harold Roberts, Annie Kelly, Evan Jones, D. Wells, and W. Kelly. it being mentioned that the two former had not missed once in four years, for which they were awarded a special prize. After a few remarks by the Vicar, during which he spoke of the excellent work done by the staff at the school, a hearty vote of thanks was accorded Mr and Mrs Scott. The remaining item on the programme was a rustic cantata, entitled "Merryton Market." A large number of children took part, and the whole passed off very successfully, the opening argument between Richard and Matilda being particularity good. The principal characters were as follows {Villagers | JM. Bablow- Matilda ( J .MATILDA BARLOW. Madge ANNIE KELLY. Dame Hearty WINNIE DAVIES. Quack Doctors J, EDWARDS, JOHN HUGHES, A. JONES. Sergt. Lockup EVAN JONES. Colonel Stern R. GRESLEY JONES. Col. Sergt. Orackjaw JOHN PINCHBECK. Toy vendors, married men, flower girls, village gossips, and gypies, being represented by other children. The following names were supplied us as being those responsible for the decorations: Mrs Williams (School), Mrs Jones (Drakelow), Miss Davies (Vicarage), Miss Linnell, Captain Mc Donald, Councillor Inglefield, and others.

It is expected that the local Budget-the annual statement of the Finance Committee- will be unfolded at the next meeting of the Council, and in view of the improved position, compared with last year, of our town's finances, it is hoped that a little provision will be made for improving those parts of Pres- tatyn which are pre-eminently the resort of visitors. By no stretch of the imagination can that portion of the public ground imme- diately at the foot of the hillside at Pendre be called picturesque in its present condition. The solitary seat which has been planted amongst the general quarry debris, no self- respecting pedestrian would rest upon. Probably no ratepayer would object to a small sum—say £ 50—being set aside for improvements to the public property, and seeing that we have a Councillor residing on the hillside who would be able to show the best and most economical way of accomplish- ing this desirable improvement, very little difficulty should be experienced in carrying it out. Given a winding path up the green slopes, with roughly-cut steps here and there in the limestone, and a few more seats, added toj the magnificent view to be had therefrom—'twould be a typical spot to spend a hot summer's afternoon with one's favourite book. —

At the March meeting of the Prestatyn Council the Medical Officer's report, regarded at the time as a very favourable one, was read, and a resolution passed requesting. the local press to publish same. In Consequence of a slight error in the average calculations, which considerably affect the conclusions arrived at, the report is not yet to hand, but doubtless it will shortly be available for publication.
