FOOTBALL NOTES. Prestatyn v. Denbigh. The above Thursday teams met at the Marine Road Ground, Prestatyn, on Thursday last in fine weather. In the Denbigh eleven were included two members of the town team, while J. Roberts, Franks, L. Lloyd, and J. W. Jones were missing from the ranks of the home eleven. Captain Watts having won the toss put Denbigh to face the sun, but they had a slight wind at their backs. The game started in rather a lively way, as Buckley, robbing the Denbigh forwards, gave to Holbrook, who, dashing down his wing, put in a lovely centre which the home centre met and beat the visiting custodian with a splendid shot, opening the homesters' score within two minutes of the start. From the centre Denbigh got down on the left, but were driven back by Brooks, who cleared with a huge kick. P. Hughes now got possession, and the spectators were treated to some pretty passing between Davies, Hughes, and Roberts, which ended in Hughes again testing the Denbigh custodian who cleared cleverly. The Denbigh right now got away, but were repulsed by Jones, who passed forward to Davies, that player tricking three of his opponents and passing across the goalmouth, Roberts got possession and passed to Hughes, who put the homesters further ahead with a lucky goal. On half time being called the home team were two up. On restarting the ball was given to the home centre half, who gave out to Roberts on the right, he centring for Davies to put on num- ber three goal. Denbigh now seemed to waken up and brought pressure to bear on the home goal, but found a hard nut to crack in Roberts, Watts, and Brookes. Later the home forwards made another onslaught on the visitors' goal, but the Denbigh custodian saved splendidly from Holbrooke, after which Herbie had to save a stinging shot from one of the Denbighites. Just before time was called Roberts sent in a shot which skimmed the bar, the game concluding with the home- sters winners of their first match by three goals to nil. Referring to the home players, Herbie kept a good goal and showed improvement on last year's form. The backs were very safe, and the halfs worked hard, with Jones perhaps the best, but Thomas improved in the second half. The forwards played well to a man, and with a gcod partner for Roberts they will want some holding. The following represented Prestatyn H. Roberts, L. W. Watts, T. E. Brooks, A. Jones, E. Buckley, W. Thomas, Holbrook, W. R. Davies, P. Hughes, Barlow, and J. Roberts. GOAL POST.

Meliden v. Prestatyn Rovers. On Saturday the Prestatyn Rovers played their first match of the season at Meliden. The Rovers scored in the first minute of the game, R. Pritchard heading in. Maldwyn Jones added a second in the next five minutes, R. Pritchard scoring a third and fourth, one being from a penalty. Half time Rovers 4, Meliden nil. The second half was more evenly con- tested, Meliden having the advantage of the wind. Llewelyn Hughes scored for Prestatyn after the game had been in progress about twenty minutes. Meliden now got away, and Jack Thomas scored their only goal. Llewelyn Hughes secured the sixth goal for the Rovers. Final: Prestatyn Rovers 6, Meliden 1. The following team did service for Pres- tatyn :—goa, 0. T. Jones; backs, Sam Williams and R. H. Parry; halves, T. E. Roberts, Harry Hughes. and Will Ellis; forwards, Llewelyn Hughes, Fred Coward, Spencer Ellis, Maldwyn Jones, and Roger Pritchard. FORWARD.

A Disciplined Memory. I agree that a memory which is thoroughly disciplined, and which retains verbatim many masterpieces of prose and verse, is one of the best products of a liberal education. Professor Child used to ask his classes in Chaucer, Shakespeare, and Milton to learn several pages by heart. Those who used not to do this had to go home. What an advantage it it is to be able to repeat hundreds of lines by the greatest poets It was said recently in the House of Commons that about fifty years ago you might meet in the West of Ireland rugged peasants who had whole books of the jEneid by heart. I do not know whether it is true or not, but I know the memory is not sufficiently exercised in youth. An American professor, writing the other day, says that many schools in the States do not teach dates at all, and the answers in exami- nation papers are so vague that one cannot tell weather the writer really knows anything about the subjects. A Massachusetts teacher boasted My pupils may not know the multiplication-table, but they know some- thing more precious, the meaning of multipli- cation." What rubbish all this is Child- hood is the time for memory. It is time when the drill in the memory is fruitful and Matthew Arnold spoke wisely when he urged us -to have always in one's mind lines and expressions of the great masters, and to apply them as a touchstone to other poetry."

Maxims from the Moralists. An obstinate man does not hold opinions-- they hold him. The hours remain for us to deplore the moments. Anyone can be eccentric but it requires genius to be original. At the end of a century a friendship can still be young, whereas a passion is generally old at the end of three months.

Women in Journalism. Journalism, by the way, is one of the few professions in which women's work is paid much the same as men's, or, to be accurate, in which men's work is paid as badly as women's."

On Buying Books. I will even go so far as to say we ought not to get books too cheaply. No book, I believe, is ever worth half so much to its reader as one that has been coveted for a year at a bookstall, and bought out of saved half- pence, and perhaps a day or two's fasting. That's the way to get at the cream of a book. Iiuskin.
