NORTH & SOUTH WALES BANK
NORTH & SOUTH WALES BANK Another Prosperous Year. The 71st annual meeting oftheN.&S.W. Bank was held at Liverpool on Tuesday, presided over by Mr Thomas Brocklobank, chairman of directors. There was a large attendance of shareholders. The chairman, in proposimg the adoption of the report and balance sheet (the latter of which appears in another column), stated that the affairs of the bank have never been in a sounder condition than at the present time. During the past year there had been an increase of deposits amounting to £ 450,000. In consequence of the heavy depreciation in the value of their investments they had been obliged to write < £ 25,000 from the value of their Consols. This had been done, however, without calling on the reserve. Mr W. R. Pierce, in moving a vote of thanks to the Chairman, congratulated Mr Brocklobank upon having presented so satis- factory a report. They were not only able to pay 15 per cent. dividend, but to strengthen their reserve. (Hear, hear.) He liked to see the solid strengthening of reserve h 0 in any company. It gave increased con- fidence to, and weighed with, the public, besides improving the position of the share- holders. (Applause).

Women's Temperance Union.
Women's Temperance Union. It is pleasing to find that the Ffynnongroew branch of the society is again shewing signs 11 cl of life. The officers and members arc quite active, and the reason why the society has relaxed somewhat of iate is attributed to the indifferences and non co-operation of other religions bodies in the village, without which the Temperance Union could scarcely ever have an open night on which to hold their meeting. Now that it has been restarted, perhaps those outside will render the necessary help towards the progress of this urgent cause. On Friday evening, the 18th inst at 6 p.m., a meeting exclusively for women was held in order to complete organization. It was attended by Mrs Herbert Lewis, and Miss Pritchard, Birmingham, who is the general secretary to the Union. The Secretary to the Ffynnongroew Branch is Miss Marian Jones, Post Ollice. At 7 p.m. a public meeting was held in the Wesleyan Schoolroom, presided over by Mr Hughes, Lewis Terrace. Addresses were given by Mrs Heibert Lewis, Miss Pritchard, and Rev. Ed. Lloyd, Green- field. There was a large attendance. Mr H. T. Jones, Iuglcside, moved the vote of thanks to the speakers, chairman, and singers. It. is believed that the society will do great work of reformation in the village.

BY-ROADS AND RELIGION.
BY-ROADS AND RELIGION. To the Editor of the Prestatyn Weekly." SIR,—I often wonder when I ride or walk over the network of by-roads and lanes in Flintshire, whether our conduct in regard to the state of them can be called sane. Parts of Homo arc submerged in water, others are shockingly miry, and some are actualiycutuphyruts afoot or two deep, endangering the strongest axle, and straining unmercifully the draft-beast. People who >h_ dwell in the vicinity of the highway, see very little of the quagmires that handicap our farmers, waste precious hours, and cause the unavoidable abuse of their best horses. A walk in summer when the sun has caked the surface, fails to recall their condition during winter, and during heavy rains of other seasons. Here's a chapel that was built at a cost of £ 500, and over yonder a church at £ 5,000, and the by-reads and lanes leading to them not fit to come in contact with shoe- leather, let alone the dainty fringe and edge of the garments donned by our lovely gentle sex attending public worship. The condition of the roads reflects blame on no one all are desirous of seeing them improved money is the only factor lacking to put them in order. Memories of our infantile days flash upon us all at times, and I can well recall with a multitude of others, the act of dropping my first penny into the collection box. We continue involuntarily to re-act some feature or other of our early training, during life, and in particular the act of dropping our tribute into the collection box. The Scandinavian Maelstrom would stand aghast at the waves of gold and silver sucked up by that religious whirlpool, the collection box. Ought we not to draw the line somewhere ? God does not demand our monetary tribute, and our thanks, by the sacrifice of things essential to the preservation of health. Will a righteous man demand thanks for feeding his dog ? When he determined to possess one, concurrent was the purpose to provide for it. Man may, within certain limits, expect provision being made for him by his Creator irrespective of thanksgiving and religious contributions. It would be a meritorious act to divert a portion of the loose silver constantly flowing into religious seas towards putting in proper order our by-roads and lanes. We ought to increase the number of our steam rollers. We want some of different size and weight, and we should not rest satisfied until the beast with his burden can pass over every highway, by-road, and lane with ease,and man with pleasure.—Yours.etc., ISHMAEL JONES. 1, Lewis Terrace, Ffynnongroew.

Mostyn. Coming Event.—Feb. 13th, Sacred Concert at Bethel C.M. Chapel. Boy's Sudden Death. A little boy named Samson Hughes, aged 11, son of Mrs Margaret Hughes, Halendy, died very suddenly last week from blood poisoning, after only a few days illness. These painful circumstances drew the sym- pathy of the whole district. Among the letters of condolence were those from 21 school children who were the boy's friends. The funeral was largely attended at Rhewl on Sunday afternoon. Before starting, a short service was held at the English Con- gregational Church. The Rev Dr E. P. Jones, officiated, assisted by Mr Morris, Liverpool, and Mr Peers, Mostyn. Mr Bean Parry played the Dead March in Saul." Several school children headed the funeral procession to the cemetery. The members of the English Congregational Sunday School, including a few other friends, presented a beautiful wreath. His mother is deeply grateful for the sympathy extended to her in this bereavement.
