The Aberdare Leader

Nodion a Newyddion. Chwith meddwl am farwolaeth merch Twrfab yn Madagascar bell. Yr oedd yn briod a'r Parch. William Evans sydd yn llafurio yn y wlad hono dan nawdd Cymdeithas Genadol Llundain. Ryw chwe mlynedd yn ol bu y teulu ar ymweliad ar wlad hon, ac yn aros yn Aberdar. Y pryd hyny yr oedd y di- weddar Twrfab yn fyw. Cydymdeim- lir yn tawr a Mr. Evans a pherthynasau ei briod. Symudir yn awr i wneyd cofnod teil- wng i'r diweddar Barch. Wmffre Jones, yr hwn a roddodd gychwyniad i ddi- wygiad 18.. Torodd ei iechyd 1 lawr dan bwys gwaith yr adfywiad, a di- weddodd ei ddyddiau mewn tywyllwch meddyliol. Y Parch. Dafydd Morgan, o'r Ysbytty, a gymerodd i fyny y gwaith y gorfodwyd i Wmffre Jones i'w adael ar ei hanner. Nos Fercher bu y pregethwr melus ei ddawn a'r bardd per ei awen, y Parch. D. Emrys James, Pontypridd, yn traethu o bwlpud Tabernacle, Aber- dar, hen bwlpud y Parch. J. Morgan Jones, yn awr o Athrofa Bala Bangor. Bugeilia tad Emrys eglwys yn Aberdar, seE y Parch. T. Emrys James, yn Bethesda, Abernant. Cymerai y mab ran yn nghwrdd ordeinio sefvdlu y tad ychydig fisoedd yn ol-peth lied anar- ferol. Peth mwy cyffredin ydyw gweled tad yn nghyfarfod sefydlu mab. Yn un o gyrddau gwyl fawr y Teml- wyr Da yn Aberdar dywedodd y Parch. T. Powell, Cwmdar, nad oedd y Cymry yn cymeryd yn garedig at Demlyddiaeth am fod y wedd seremon- iol ami yn anghydnaws ag anian y Cymro. Yr oedd hyny yn svn, meddai, pan ystyrid fod y Cymro wedi glynu wrth Eglwys Rhufain ar ol i'w gymydog y Sais ei gadael. Fel y gwyddis nid oes sefydliad yn y byd mor ddefodol ag Egtwys Rhufain, ac eithrio yr orsedd Gymreig. Yn y rhifyn presenol o'r "Dariall etyb y Golygydd y Parch. W. Morris, o Dreorchy, yr hwn sydd wedi bod yn ymosod yn lied lawdrwm ar y ddrama Gymreig. Gweledydd mawr a chraff ydyw Dr. Morris, ond gweledydd cul ydyw. a gwyliedydd gorfanwl. Gofala I nad el drwy y porth cyfyng ddim y bydd arno nod y newyddian. Y sect fanylaf ydyw ei safon ef pan yn actio fel ceid- wad vr auirawiaeth, a phan yn gweith- redu fel "censor" dramayddol nid yw ddim amgen.

Aberdare Brotherhood. An open meeting d the Aberdare Brotherhood was held at Greeti-st *^t Chapel on Sunday afternoon. Mr. 1. Nether way, Mountain Ash, senior circuit steward, presided. The Rev. R. Priest- ley. who deputises the Rev. Leslie R- Winter, circuit minister, during his ill- ness, commenced the service. A solo was rendered by Mrs. Edwards (nee Miss Maggie Phillips). The orchestra was in evidence, and Mr. A. H. Harmston was the organist. Mr. Priestley addressed the gathering on "Thomas the doubter." "Thomas," he remarked, "demanded the test of the print of the nail before he could be convinced of the identity of the risen Christ. That test was still the mark of the true disciple, and the world looked for this brand on our character." Mr. Netherway also spoke briefly. Then prises were distributed by Mrs. Nether- way to the members of the Brotherhood for good attendance, the following being the recipients: -Rev. H. Barraclough, Messrs. Aiken, W. Adams, F. Archer, Hy. Adams, J. Bannister, E. J. Bowen, R. H. Crimp, GK O. Cole J. Cox, J. Campbell, H. S. Furze, E. Ford, J. Gwynne, Emrys Griffiths, Garrett, A. E. Harmston, J. C. Harmstoq, A. H.

Morris, Percy Mather, E. M. Vaughan, A. Vaughan, F. Vile, S. Williams, J. Web- gter, Isaac Williams, E. Wilcox, W. Waite, F. G. Williams, Wm. Wales, E. Watkins, E. W. Blundell. Mr. W. H. Kevill, the secretary of the Brotherhood, in his report, states that at the close of the fourth session, it has a membership of 106. He pays a tribute to the addresses of the president (Rev. H. Barraclough), and the vice-president (Rev. Leslie R. Winter). The finances of the Brotherhood are in a healthy state, there being in the hands of the treasurer, Mr. E. M. Vaughan, now at the end of the session, the sum of .£3 Is. d. The collections during the term amounted to .£10 5s. 5d. The open Sundays will con- tinue during the summer months.

Rev R. R. Roberts at Aberdare. Oa Sunday last the Rev. R. R. Roberts, B.A., Chester, former minister of the church, officiated at Trinity English C.M., Aberdare. At the morning ser- vice Mr. Roberts took as his text the » words in 1 Cor. xv. 58, Be ye steadfast, J unmoveable, always abounding in the i work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know ] that your labour is not in vain in the ] Lord. He remarked that these were 1 the closing words in the most extraordi- nary chapter in Holy Writ, if not in all 1 literature. Its great theme was the re- j surrection of the dead and the retention of strict identity and continuity-the same substantive self. There were three great lessons that these words taught us: (1) The general resurrection assured us of God's final and absolute victory; (2), j There was a preservation of all the past— the dead rose in their bodies; (3), The strict and real continuity of being was strict and real continuity of being was af- firmed. The new body would be trans- figured, but it would be a perfect repro- 1 duction of the old. If we lost our indi- viduality like drops of water being ab- sorbed in the ocean, we would lose our very being. But it would not be so at the resurrection. The doc- trine of the old Welsh hymn, "Bydd myrdd o ryfeddodau" was a sound one. The universe was not bank- rupt, but solvent. Let us hitch our wag- on to the distant star. Let us aherish this cosmic faith. The great poet said of men, The good is oft interred with their bones." That was true, but the good would be raised again with their bones. There were reasons for doing all the good we could in the world-hygienic, econo- mic, moral, social and prudential reasons —but the greatest of all was the assur- ance that all the good we did would have eternal value. Some men were very keen on results. They must have good, quick, visible and tabulated results, judged by the low standard of utilitarianism. But that was not the Master's way. There were some people—we called them poets —who worked for an end, and sang for a trophy or for applause. But the great ar- tist worked for what might be called the "fun of the work." Many great sculp- tors spent energy and fastidious indus- try on some part of the ceiling, which was seen only by God and the sparrows. Let us do something for the fun of know- ing that we belonged to God, and eter- nity, knowing that our labour was not in vain in the Lord. Mr. Roberts preached again in the eve- ning. There were very large and atten- tive congregations at both services.

Chapter of Accidents. At the Aberaman Colliery on Thurs- day last, David Davies, Wyndham-cres- cent, sustained a compound fracture of the leg through a fall of stone. He is, however, progressing slowly.—On Monday at the same colliery, a young lad, named Win- Jones, of Cardiff-road, miraculously escaped death. A slip of coal fell upon him, causing serious injuries to his back and head.—At Llettv Shenkin Colliery Friday, Owen Richards (rope splicer), Tudor-cottages, sustained fractured ribs through an empty tram knocking him down.

Scraps. BY THE SCRIBE." The Rev. R. R. Roberts, B.A., Ches- ter, former pastor of Trinity, Aberdare and who paid a welcome visit last Sun- day to the scene of his erstwhile labours, is a perfect master of classic English. One would never think when listening to an English sermon by him that he is a Welsh-speaking Cymro from Penmaenmawr. Last Sunday morning he surprised many at Trinity by reciting with faultless pronunciation from the first to the last syllable that well-known Welsh hymn, Bydd myrdd o ryfeddodau." One of the chief figures at the meet- ings of the I.O.G.T. held at Aberdare this week is Mrs. Jennie Walker, the much-travelled oratress and organiser. It should be explained that she bears no relation whatever to Johnnie Walker, who gets so much publicity in opposition circles. When reading the official oath at the Aberdare Police Court last week one witness declared his readiness to speak the truth, the whole thing," etc. Well, truth being such an undefinable, and in some cases such an unutterable quantity perhaps the swearer may be pprdonea for dubbing it a "thing." Mrs. Walter Lloyd, who received tangible recognition at the hands of Trinity friends last week, is a hale and hearty lady of sweet 83. The fact that she is a life-long abstainer, and one who never tires of extolling the virtues of beer-shunning, is a very practical argument for teetotalism. Someone suggests that all places of worship whose windows are closed dur- ing the present tropical heat should be blacklisted. But that might be con- sidered intimidation. A safer method would be to advertise the "fair" estab- lishments, as they do in trades union circles. Let people be informed where they may go to worship without run- ning the risk of being melted or stifled out of existence. Leave blacklisting to the gods. They are immune from the dread penalties of the laws of libel. Two things accounted for the great run on lemonade in Aberdare this week (1) The thirsty weather; (2) the visit to the town of so many G.T.'s. va Mr. Edward Powell, managing direc- tor of Humber, Ltd., who was one of the three persons chosen for the final selection of second Liberal Candidate for Merthyr and Aberdare Boroughs j (Mr Artemus Jones being selected) has I ( been adopted Liberal candidate for the Altrincham Division in Cheshire.

We see from an advertisement that we now have in our midst an "Institute of Hand Development." This should prove most useful to parents who own troublesome children. No doubt after a short course of instruction the spanking power of the hand may be doubled.— "Punch."

Letters to the Editor. PROPOSED TESTIMONIAL TO THE REV. DR. HARRIS (AFANWY), TREHERBEST. Sir,—After nearly sixty years of stren- uous and successful activity in the Christ- ian ministry, the Rev. Dr. Harris, of Libanus. Treherbert. has decided to seek his well-earned repose by resigning his position as pastor. The members of the church under his charge propose to show their appreciation of his services as pas- tor, preacher, opd poet, and to gladden his heart in the eventide of life by in- augurating a testimonial, in which his many admire3 outside the sphere of the church will be invitpd to take part. Willingly would we indefinitely postpone the parting, and retain the Grand Old Man of the Baptist Ministry, to inspire us with his oratory, genius, and charac- ter, and to guide the crowd of young converts, who are now joining the church. But our pastor's comfort out- weighs all other considerations at the present juncture. We hope, therefore, that our appeal will meet with a general and a generous response. Dr. Harris has occupied the pastorates of several churches, such as Llanelly (Brecks.), Hill Park (Haverfordwest), Casllwchwr, Manchester, Eldon Street (London), St. David's, and has received every honour (including the Presidency of the Union) which it has been possible for the Bap- tist denomination to bestow.—We are, &c.

Abercwmboi Notes. (By "DEMOCRAT.") Abercwaabii is determined to have just one" representative out of the seven alloted to No. 5 Ward of the District Council. The villagers are also equally as de- termined to have a voice in the selection of their candidate. For that purpose, every voter in the village wil be invited to attend a public meeting, which will be held shortly. Nominations by Federation lodges are anti-democratic, and caiii)ot express the views of Abercwniboi as a whole. Only a sprinkling of its workmen are em- ployei at each of the seven or eight local collieries. The remainder—fully a third of the working inhabitants—are at Nixon's Collieries. NO, Abercwmboi must select its own, and the chosen candidate must be a man —not a mere politician. He must be free and unfettered, amenable only to his own judgment and common sense. LIl other words, he must be an intelligent being, and not an automobile, driven by chauffeurs supplied by the %.ber,lare Trade and Labour Council, Chamber of Trade, I.L. Peers, Y.L. Leaguers, Tory Covenanters, etc., ad lib. » What say our stronger sisters of Cwm- aman and Aberaman: Must there lie a contest this time? If so, will they rail:, round us? Oh! dear me, NO. We are :c not" whining, neither are we going c': ben-loJ knees. We fear no foe. We simpy ap- peal to their sense of justr.e and fair representation.

Great sympathy is felt throughout the valley with the reatives of poor Ge-rge Pearce, the well known and popular goal- keeper of the Hirwain A.F.C., who met his death in a motor-cycle accident the other week. George was a most versatile player, and had figured in the forward line. Messrs D. J. James (Abernant). J. H. Jones (Aberaman), and J. M. Shelby- James (Cwmbach), have been elected on the management committee of the Welsh Assoeiation League. Abernant will again be seen in evi- denoe next season.
