The management has secured the special and important engagement of the Great Matopos, Prince of Illusion- ists, in his mysterious entertainment. Come and see the magic growing of real flowers, smoke without fire, magic photography, the Indian plant illusion, great seance, the Monte Christo change, and the catching of fish in the air. in .connection with the above a grand com- petition will be held nightly, the final to be held on Friday evening. The prize will be given to the one who makes the best attempt to escape from the straight jacket board. Hirwainites should not fail to see this Matopos, as he is quite ■ unique, and one of Britain's most popu- lar turns. His work proves him to be an artiste of special merit. With the pictures principal interest centres around "On the Moonlight Trail" and "Frenzy of Fire Water," which are powerful films, and provide good sensa- tion. "Quicker than thought move- ments and" Vallpv of the Danube" are of deep scientific interest, whilst among other attractive pictures are: "Dam Builders," "Family Feud, Child's Remorse, "International Romance," and "Hubby does the cook- ing."

Chilton, Cambridge, occupied the pulpit at Carmel (B.) Chapel, preaching acceptable sermons. The morning text was from Hebrews, and the evening Mark ix. 8, U I saw no one any more, save Jesus only." Mr Chilton acted as teacher to the young ladies' class and addressed the Sunday School in the afternoon. CARMEL C.E. On Thursday even- ing last week Mrs David Jones gave a most practical paper on the topic, Love of God," as eviliced in 1. Cor. xiii. Mr John Davies (jun.) occupied the chair, and led off the comments, which were taken up from different standpoints by Mrs Bevan and Messrs M. Parr, J. Reston, and W. 'Bryant. At a committee meeting held later, Mrs B§.van, vice-president, occupying the chair, it was decided to hold a picnic, and to invite the choir to co-operate. HIGHLAND PLACE. The monthly meeting of the Sunday School was held on Sunday afternoon, when Miss Gwladys Evans' class became responsible for the programme. On Sunday morn- ing and evening the pulpit was occu- pied by the pastor, the Rev. E. T. Evans. At the latter service he based a telling sermon on the words found, in I. Kings vi. 7: "And the house, when it was in building, was built of ston6 made ready before it was brought thither; so that there was neither hammer nor axe nor any tool of iron heard in the house while it was in building." The preacher, in eloquent terms, referred to the moral and spiritual significance and value of sil- ence. Someone had said that the best novel had not yet been written; the best sermon not delivered; the best poem not yet composed, and the best picture not painted. This was a uni- versal fact. Whenever we tried to cabin and confine our inmost thoughts in words, we realised how indescribable those thoughts were and how inadequate was our vocabulary. ENGLISH WESLEYAN. Special preaching services were held at the English Weslevan Church, Aberdare, on Sunday, when the Rev. John Hugh Mor- gan, ex-chairman of the District, was t the preacher. In the morning, inter- spersed with the lessons, he gave an in- teresting talk to the children. Taking the letters from the word "child," he said that they stood for conscientious- ness, honesty, industry, love, and de- votion. Every child should cultivate these qualities, and become good Christian citizens. The preacher took as his text for his sermon II. Peter i. ^J1'. remarking that the members of a Christian Church could be divided into three classes—nominal, moderate, and devoted. The first of those classes re- garded religion as simply a matter of form-a Sunday stop in the organ of life, to be pulled out on Sunday morn- ing, and pressed back early on Monday morning. Such people regarded public worship as a kind of sponge to wipe out the faults of the previous week. Another class smacked somewhat of commercial utilitarianism. They waht- ed just enough religion to save them from hell, and no more. Christianity should be enjoyed to the full, and his subject that morning was Abundant Religion." Abundant religion meant abundant usefulness. Schiller once wrote, "Only from the noble soul can what is noble come." This principle would be summed up in a formula- Be good that you may do good; be very good that you may do much good." If the seven graces were in us, they would make us good.
