I Please remember this when buying FORMAMINT P THE GERM KILLING THROAT TAMXT To help overcome the shortage of Formamint—so regrettable in this season of Influenza, Colds, and Sore Throats-we are now supplying it in or- dinary white glass bottles, as well as in the familiar amber- coloured bottles. But these white bottles will, of course, bear our well-known labels our name and address, and our guarantee that the tablets within are the genuine original Fo-mamint, not a substitute. Look for these things and you will run no risk of confusing substitutes with genuine Formamint, whether the bottle is white or amber coloured. ( N.

Edwards and Sons offered to do so at control prices.— The Clerk: It is a mat er of Hobson's choice. o-Who ofer was accepted. The Committee of Visitors to Carmarthen Asylum wroe pointing out the advisability of Uniocs wh.ch had female patiants at the Asy- lum to appoint women as visitors. The mater was referr.ed to the new Board. The Master reported that the number of in- mates was 43, compared wi.h 41 the corres- ponding period last year. Elizabeth Shaw had died in the House. leaving two young children. There was another young child in the House, and it was resolved that the Boarding-Out Com- mi,tee should arrange to have homes for them in the country. PAUPER'S FURNITURE. Mr. Thomas Vaughan, relieving officer stated that he had sold the greater part of the furni- ture of Mrs. Mary Griffiths, Llanrliys .yd, who died recently. He had arranged to sell the remainder on Mr. William Laws's election day, as he thought it a convenient time, but Mr. Lewis thought otherwise. He suggested that 29 of the money realised be used to place a atone on the grave of Mrs. Griffith's son, who bad died in the Army. WORKHOUSE DIET. The Chairman referred to the following state- ment, made in the Cambrian News" on March 28 h:— "Some Guardians are still half starving the inmates of the workhouses under their care. With margarine at eightpence and bread unlimited, there seems to be Ii'.tle' reason why this should go on. and now that Guardians seem to have ample time for abstract resolutions surely they can find some ime to deal fairly with the poor. It is qu te useless to expect any consideration from the L.G.B." During his canvass, his attention was drawn to the statement One woman was very persis- tent about it, and said it must be true, be- cause it was in the Cambrian News"; and he promised he would take the first opportunity to rebut the statement. The following week a leader wi h further reference to the matter appeared n the paper, and after the election a statement that the results were not satis- factory. He protested against :.lIe statements, which were written to prejudice the old mem- bers, but, happily, were not taken notice of. .Tlia the statements were wrong was proved by tke following report of Mr. H. R. Williams, Local Government Board inspector-- "Beiag in the neighbourhood on other business, I called in at the institution dur- ¡ ing the prepara ion of dinner, which con- sisted of boiled mutton and bacon 3* ozs., 12 ozs. potatoes, six ounces swedes, and as much more as any inmate desired, thick gravy, four ounces of bread and all well aarved. I had no complaint as to insuffi- ciency of food; on 'he contrary, I heard nothing but praise for the w the inmates were treated." It was not right, continued Captain Llewellin, to make such a statement, because the dietary tables 'were published in the abstract of ac- counts which were open for anyone lo see. The people who supplied the institution with meat and other articles of food were among the most responsible tradespeople In the Union, | go the quality of the food was as good as the quantity was ample. He had lived for years on far less rations, and several members of "he Board, as well as others, wished they could live so well as the inmates of that in- I stitution did. Cases came before the Board at every meeting of people who would be far better off in he House than outside, but the Board could not expect them to come there when they were toM that the inma1es were being starved. It was disgraceful to make such a statement at -.be eve of the election simply to draw a red herring across the path. I Mr. Bunce Morgan: What can we do in the matter? The Chairman: I snouto leave it Iliere. Mr. David Lewis: The statement does not refer to this workhouse more than any other. Hie Chairman: The statement that the re- sult of the election was unsatisfactory infers that it does. THE BLIND The Board supported 'he following resolu- tion passed by the Pontypridd Union:—"That j the time has arrived when all persons afflicted with blindness should be under the direct con- trol of a Government department, that the cost of their education and maintenance should be direct charge upon the National Exchequer, and that they should have representation on the various committees appointed to look after I their welfare; also tha-, a copy of the resolu- tion be sent to the Prime Minister, and the Local Government Board." MONEY FOR UNEMPLOYED. Mr. W. T. Lewis drew attention to the Un- employment Fund. It was a shame, he said, that the money of the country should be spent in the extravagant way it was, and Boards of Guardians should protest against it. Thou- sands of the people who drew unemployment money had never been employed before the war. It was a scandal. One member said that 400 persons were paid unemployment money &) Aberystwyth last week. Mr. Lewis intimated that he would bring the matter before the next meeting.

Aberystwyth Memorial.,
Aberystwyth Memorial. FINE SPEECHES BY RETURNED OFFICERS COMMITTEE APPOINTED. During the past few months two public meetings have been held in Aberystwyth—one to protest against the price of milk, and the other against the price and quality of coal. And both were brimful of enthusiasm. On Friday evening another public meeting was held, this time to arrange a memorial to the gallant eighty sons of the town who had given their lives for their country. The meet- ing was to commence at 7.30, but the towns- people had either forgotten it, or had no desire to support the object for which it had been convened. At eigh o'clock, when it was de- cided to go on with the proceedings despite the cllscouragmgi support, the Town Hall was so empty that the Mayor had to ask the audience to take the front seats—a customary procedure I to make a poor meeting appear respectable. Ten minutes after the commencement a crowd of young men entered, and in such a noisy manner that Captain Edward Llewellin, who was addressing the meeting, had to stop speak- ing until they had taken their seats. More entered later, and before the end the hall, which, by the way, is not a. large one, was nearly full. As far as the speakers were concerned the meeting was a great success. The speeches of Captain Edward Llewellin and Captain B. Taylor Lloyd were manly and with the right touch of sentiment. They have seen great things, and there is nothing like experience to things, and there is nothing like experience to carry conviction. Captain Llewellin's casual I reference to comrade after comrade falling by his side, illustrated in a sen ence the tragedy of war; and Captain Taylor Lloyd's story of the Aberystwyth boy's grave with the little wooden cross, and especially his remark over the grave- Never m.nd, Johnny, we shall do something more worthy of you than this''— was overpowering. Lieutenant Ivor Evans's reference to the solicitude of the soldiers for their wives and children and their anxiety for their future should they fall, was also very elling. The Mayor said it was a mistake on the Council's part to fix the meeting all 7.30 on I such a fine evening. They had expec ed a larger meeting—a meeting in sympathy with the object they had in view. War memorials were being established throughout the coun- try and he did DOJ doubt that Aberystwyth would be behind with tLeirs. The town had been in the front in most movements connected with the war. They had contribu ed well to the various funds, and the least thing they could do was to show their sympathy w.th a movement to honour the men who went to the Front never to return. A letter was read from Dr. Harries, regret- ting his inability to be present, and sta ing that ho was in full sympathy with the move- ment. He felt t'hat a monument would be the most suitable method of perpetuating the I memory of the men that had died for their country. The Mayor called upon Captain Edward I Llewellin to propose the first resolution. All, he said, were glad to see Captain Llewellin and Captain B. Taylor Lloyd back home well and hearty, after having gone through the great ordeal of war. Captain Llewellin moved that the memorial I should take the form of a statue or monument worthy of the heroism and sacrifice of their fellow townsmen, to be erected in a prominent place, and a permanent roll of honour. He unders ood that the committee that was formed unders ood that the committee that was formed in the first instance to deal with the matter was constituted of the members of the Town Council and the principal supporters of the Y.M.C.A. in the town, and that for certain reasons the Y.M.C.A. people decided that Jt would be better for them to proceed in the matter independent of the town War Memorial Committee, and withdrew from the movement, which necessitated the formation of a new committee. In his opinion they were very wise in their decision. In addition to Ishe I statue, the committee considered several other projects, one being the erection of a hall, bu in his opinion the provision of a hall was the duty of the Town Council, and should not form a part of the memorial scheme. Another pro- ject was the provision of athletic grounds, and that also should be done by the Council, who should lease the Smithfield to a representative committee at a nominal ren*. They should not encroach on the War Memorial Fund for those purposes. Lampeter, after considering three or four different projects, had decided on a staAue, and one gentleman had offered to contribute a hundred guineas if nine others did the same, and the nine were forthcoming. Aberystwyth must act similarly; they musL, concentrate their efforts on the erection of a sta'-ue worthy of the heroism and sacrifice of their fellow townsmen, and not divide the fund for three objects. Let all contribute to the fund in a manner worthy not only of the town but of the brave men who had made the supreme sacrifice. The men that had been in the war could contribute as a thank-offering for being able to come home safe again, and •'•hose that had not beeu called from tlwir I homes should contribute as thank-offering for the ordeal they were spared. He had seen scenes he never wished to see again, comrades making the supreme sacrifice close to him time after time. Le1, all contribute generously to the funds. He would contribute as far as his means would allow him. (Cheers.) Captain B. Taylor Lloyd, who seconded the proposition deplored the sparse attendance, especially at the commencement of the meet- ing. It seemed extraordinary to him that the recent meeting to protest against the price and recent meeting to protest against the price and I quality of coal should have been deemed ot more impor-ance than a meeting to discuss means to commemorate the heroes who had fallen in the war. The meeting at the Coli- seum, when they wanted the boys to go out, was big enough, and 'hey ought to have suffi- cient sense of gratitude to ensure a worthy j memorial to those who went out and would never return. (Cheers.) He felt that Aberyst- wyth should have a war memorial put up and governed by Aberystwyth people, and be free from party and sectarian influence. It must be a memorial by Aberystwy h to Aberystwyth's own, and held by Aberystwyth people for ever. (Cheers.) The committee had decided on a statue as the best form of a memorial, and, in his opinion their judgment was right. A statue was the best form of a memorial, and he sup- ported the committee's decision from the bot- tom of his heart. One reason why a statue was the most suitable form was that it was Mie usual custom to erect a monument in memory of the dead. While in Belgium he took part in three huge meetings dealing with memorials ,and although the usual cry of "something useful" was heard, the majority of the men—and they were the ones to decide— was in favour of monuments. And why should ( a memorial be something useful. He was sure no one had a genuine desire to make money out of a memorial-It was too sacred for that. The country had had all the use from the men Themselves. (Cheers.) He found that the smaller villages wei. t in for halls combined with institutes, but his impression, as far as halls were concerned, was that Aberystwyth was very well provided already, and that i". would be sheer waste of money to add to the number. There was room for a well equipped institute in the town, but "Jlere were other I means of getting one. With regard to a play- ground, the Council could deal with lhat. Let the town be un:td in the matter. Whatever Aberystwyth had taken in hnnd in the past it had accomplished. They had had a record Tank woek, and he was sure that in an appeal to Mie town for funds for a memorial to the fallen heroes they would accomplish what they had set out to do. He would not hazard a guess at the cost of a statue—it might be any- thing from E300 to EI,000, but whatever self- denial they would be called upon to practice, let 'hem have a statue worthy of the town. If each person in the town contributed 10s. a week they would obta;n E4,000, and it was not too much to ask of the own. The men had made the greatest sacrifice of all; let those who remained do theirs. If each person in the town sacrificed one meal a day it would raise a sufficient sum to obtain a splendid monu- ment. Let them have a worthy memorial to the brave boys who had gone to the war and wou'd never return. As T stood over the grave of one, and ?azed at the little wooden cross I said: "Never mind, Johnny, we shall do something more worthy of you than this." "And I," said Captain Taylor Lloyd in conclusion, shall make every effort to do it. (Cheers ) Lieutenant Ivor Evans did not think the proposals went far enough. When he was at the Front he found tljat the men's chief con- cern was in regard to their dependant; and, in his opinion, the town should have a memorial that would ensure that no dependant widow, child, or parent—should suffer because relations had fallen. The Sta pension was inadequate. A widow received 139. 9d. a week, or two-thirds of the pre-war earnings of her husband. It was not sufficient, and that, he believed, was the altitude taken by the Labour ParLy. The Government, iu the present cir- cumstances could not do justice in the matter, and for that, reason the pension should be sup- plemented in the way he had indicated, because it was not right to force the widow to earn her living. The allowance for children, again, was inadequate. For the fils., child 6s. 8d. a week was granted, 5s. for the second and a reduction for the other children. To feel, clothe, and educate a child in a satisfactory manner the allowance was far from bt;.nb. suf- ficient Some provision should be made tc give the child every facility to obtain good educa- tion, so that he would not suffer in after life because his father had fallen in the war. Premiums should be provided to s art that child in a useful trade. In the case of parents, again, the provision made by the State was inadequate. Five shillings a week was granted if the lost son was under 26 years of age, and for .he loss of a son over that age the pension ranged up to 15s. a week. It was clear that pensions were insufficient, and that they should be supplemented by some means or other. He therefore suggested -,hat the sum collected for the memorial—and he thought they could rely on obtaining E4,COO--sliould, after providing for a permanent roll of honour, be invested and the proceeds devoted to assist widows, orphans, and parents of the fallen. That in his opinion, would be the worthiest form of memorial, and. the memorial that would commend itself to the men that had fallen. (Cheers.) The Rev. R. J. Rees, while not desiring to say anything that would divide the meeting, felt that the second proposition which dealt with the appointment of a committee should have preceded the firs1. That, in his opinion, would secure un'ty, and dissension in such a matter would be far from becoming. They were in a committee stage, and he suggested [that they should be content that night with forming a committee, before which all pro- jects should be placed. The provision of a playground had been mentioned. He had ad- vocated the, same thing at "he County School on the recent prize day, because he sym- pathised with the children of the town, who had no place in which to play, except where they were rushed about. Again, he emphasised the desirability to appoint, first of all, a com- mittee to bring them 'o a final stage of maturity so that they could proceed with a perfect memorial. Captain Llewellin agreed wi h Mr. Itees that it would be wise to form a committee which could report to a public meeting. He, there- fore, was willing to drop the proposition. and a.ppoin a committee. Captain Taylor Lloyd was also agreeable to drop the proposition. First and foremost, they needed unity, which they should ensure through a representative committee. But let them do something. With regard to the suggestion made by Lieutenant Ivor Evans, he would say that the Government should be asked to main- tain its dependants. Eicrht million pounds a day were spent during the war, and surely the Government could afford to keep 'he widows of the fallen men. The Rev. George Eyre Evans said the com- mittee must have a free hand and every pro- posal must be weighed on its mer'ts. Wales possessed no noeworthy statue, and if Aberyst- wyth decided to have a statue let it be worthy of the PrincipaliLy-a. statue of a frock-coated person did not appeal to the people of to-day. And let no names he inscribed on the statue but "he names of the men who had died, not even the name of the sculptor. Mr. Evans re- ferred to the great service done during the war by Sergeant-Major Fear-the friend of all the soldiers, who had ireceived 4,000 lef'ers from the men expressing gratitude for what he had done for them. The Sergt. Majors name was received with loud prolonged cheers. Wergeant-Major Fear, who was given a rousing lecepuou, was in favour of a X.M.C.A. He had received letters from men serving in almost every par. of the globe, and they all expressed a desire that the memorial should be in that form. S.noe, several of the writers had laid down their lives ior their coun.ry, so, prac- tically it was their dying wish. The Mayor agreed with the Rev. R. J. Rees that the second proposition should be put be- fore the meeting first, and called upon Alderman T. J. Samuel, who moved that a committee of 24 members be appointed, twelve by the Town Council and twelve by that meit- ing, with he Mayor as ex-ofhcio member. With regard to the form of the memorial, he pre- ferred a statue to any other. People might lose interest in it af er the first enthusiasm had waned, but an annual ceremony could be arranged to keep green the memory of ihe dead heroes. The suggestion made by Lieut. Ivor Evans was excellent in some respects, but if, was time the country should call on the State to maintain the dependants of dead sol- diers in a proper manner—the country paid suf- ficient taxes to enable the S ate to do so. But if there should be a balance after the main scheme were carried out, the money could be given to any needy cases. Lieutenant Ivor Evans, who had been re- ques oed to second the proposition, pointed out the preponderant position of the Council- on the committee, and suggested, in order to make the committee as represen .ative as pos- sible, that the twelve members to be appointed by the meeting should comprise four returned soldiers, four represen.ative men from whose advice the committee would benefit, and four representatives of men who had fallen. Professor Jeokin Jones agreed with Lieut. Ivor Evans that the Council members ware pre- ponderant, and he hoped they were not already pledged to the statue form of a memorial. If they were, the majority of the committee was already in favour of a sta'ue and would ap- proach t'he matter with a biased mind. Mr. Emrys Williams concurred. The commit- tee must be democratic, and a committee of 25, comprising 13 members appointed by tjhe Town Council was not democratic. Returned soldiers should be strongly represented on the committee-they were the men who were able to speak of -he wishes of the fallen. He, there- fore, proposed an amendment that the com- mittee comprise nine members of the Town Council and fifteen others. Mr. Matson said he would second the amend- ment if Mr. Emrys Williams would agree to reduce the number of Council members from 9 to 7. Dissension grew, and Captain B. Taylor Lloyd said indignantly: There is too much quibbling. You charge the Council with being dishonourable. Everything is perfecLJy above- board, I can assure you. This is a committee that will recommend to you, and it comprises two returned men It waS pointed out -,hat the Council's decision could not well be withdrawn, and as a way out of the difficulty The Rev. Joseph Edwards proposed that the commit ee comprise 30 members instead of 25, the meeting to appoint 17. Mr. Rufus Williams seconded, and Mr. Emrys Williams withdrew his amendment. Captain R. D. Williams pointed out the ad- visability of having women on '.he committee. It was agreed to extend the committee, and the following were appointed :—Mr. Edward WilJiams. (Chief Constable), Private Hinton Jones, Sergeant Ager, Pte. John Samuel Lieutenant Ivor Evans, Sergeant-Major Fear, Captain R. D. Williams, the Rev. R. J. Rees, Mr. D. C. Roberts, Major Mathias. Prof. D. Wil- liams, the Rev. George Eyre Evans, Mrs. Daniel Jones, Crossways; Mr. Griffith Ellis, Mr. Edward Evans, Baker-street; Principal Prys Mr. Harry Roberts, Brewery; Mr. Albert Davies, Miss Grace Williams, Mr. Loveday, and Mrs. Gwen Davies. It was resolved -to collect funds at once.
