SCHOOLBOY LABOUR ON THE LAND.
SCHOOLBOY LABOUR ON THE LAND. APPEAL TO PARKNTS, HEAD- MAST KRS AND HOYS. Dear Sir,—The military situation has necessitated calling up a. large number of agricultural labourers, which will seriously deplete the available labour during the coming hay, corn alld potato harvests. It is )t vital importance that the har- vest of these crops should be sue- ceSKfully secured this. vear. This success will depend largely upon boys at public and « secondary s('U>ols, who have reached an age tint will enable them to do useful wo-k on tiie land. extent to which farmers are coin ting on their help is shown by the fact that demands for over ¡ 7,)00 hoys have already been re- ceded at this Ministry and there is no loubt that these numbers wiH he argelv increased when the full efttH of the calling-up for Military Ser-iee has been appreciated by the farmers. Of thesa numbers not less thai 3.000 wijl lie required during •I'HV and July, and a further S.oQO fo]. October for potato lift'ig, it suitable accommodatioh < can ]H, arranged. m In view of the above facts, I am reluctantly compelled to appeal to schools to release during term-time such groups of boys as may be necessary for getting in the harvest. This is a time of National crisis, and the ordinary considerations of education have not the same force as in normal times. As I have pointed out, it is necessary to pro- vide men for the Army, and it is necessary to provide labour to take their places on the farms, and I must urgently appeal to parents; headmasters and hoys to give ail the help they can. In view of my representations as to the urgency of the national need, the President af the Board of Edu- cation concurs in this appeal, and is issuing a circular on the subject to Secondary Schools in England and Wales. All offers of servi.ee must me made through the headmasters of the school. Headmasters, who have not already received the regulations and who can offer boys of 16 and over should eommnuicate with this Min istrv.—I am, vours faitlifullv, A. C.

i I-----------------_.-I SILOA.…
SILOA. ABERDARE, AND THE BALA.BANCOR COLLEGE. 25 PRESENT OUT OF 600 MEMBERS. Tho circumstances connected with the action of Siloa AVelsh Congrega- tional Church members towards j Bala-Bangor College are so little known in the town that it would be well to give publicity to the real facts. An ordinary church meeting was held some days ago, and a resolu- tion was passed by a majority that the church during 1918 do not make the usual collection in support of Bala- Bangor Theological College, Bangor. the reason assigned being that the Principal of that College, Rev Thoc. Rees, M.A., held Pacifist views. It has to be pointed out (1) That the members were not aware that such a resolution was to be submitted. (2) That only about 25 members (or less) were present out of a total church membership of over 600. (3) That the chief instigator of the motion was Mr Evan Williams, head- master of the Higher Standard Bojc' School, Aberdare, together with Mr Richard Morgan. (4) That the motion was forced (through in face of the chairman'& "(Rev D. Silyn Evans) strong appeal to postpone the matter for a month. (5) That the total amount collected towards the College by Siloa last year was only k5 16s. 4d. Undoubtedly the hulk of the church members, together with their respect- ed pastor, heaitily disagree with the conduct and policy of the Principal, but it is quite a different matter to take a mean and unfair advantage of a sparsely attended meeting 'to force such an important motion through. It is difficult to know what exactly influenced Mr Evan Williams' mind, for he not only criticised the Pacifist leanings of the Principal, but lie made an attack on one of the Pro- fessors of the same College, viz., the Rev J. Morgan Jones, M.A., late of •'J^aUernaclei, Aberdare. It is feared that Mr Evan Williams has never forgiven the Rev J. M. Jones because the latter, who was a member of the Aberdare Education Commit- tee at the time, voted, for reasons best known to' himself, against Mr Williams' appointment to the head- mastership of the Higher Standard School. That this statement is no matter of conjecture will be seen at once when we quote just one sample of what Mr Williams said at the meet- ing in question: "I don't believe that there is any more religion in the Rev iollit :uorgau aones ttlati III tins seat," placing his hand on the back of one of the seats. The church members have hardly realised what has been done, and not tiIT tliey read a reference to the mat- ter in the "Western Mail" on Satur- day did they know that the question had been discussed at all. It may safely be said that three-fourths of the members, if not more, are en- thusiastic for the war and opposed to the Pacifist Policy which Principal Rfees represents, but that does not say that' they are prepared to cripple the efficiency of the College by with- drawing the annual subscription. More will certainly be heard of the matter. As one prominent member of Siloa remarked: "I shall be sorry to create a division in Siloa, but we' can preserve peace at too dear a price, just as our country could have preserved it in August, 1914." It is certain that the College shall not suf- fer financially. Members of Siloa, who are disgusted with the paltry ac- tion above referred to, will quickly subscribe the jL5 16s. 4d. It is gen- erally felt that the vote does not re- present the feeling of the church members, and that the whole miser- able business is unworthy of the tine traditions of Siloa.

MILITARY - SPORTS AT ABERDARE.
MILITARY SPORTS AT ABERDARE. OnWiiit Tuesday the Volunteers oi Aberdare and adjoining towns held a great field day. In the morning there was drill and inspection Lord Aber- dare, hon. colonel, inspected the troops,"and later addressed the gath- ering. He remarked that the Ger- mans knew exactly what we were doing in this country with regard to the Volunteers. It was the duty of every young man to take an interest in his work. It the Kaiser became aware that the Volunteer, in this country were an efficient body of men, then no invasion would be attempted. On the other hand, if he thought they were lax and disinterested, lie might attempt a landing.—In the afternoon sports were held, several very inter- esting items havir.g been arranged. Major F. T. James, Merthyr, was present, and Capt and Adjt T. G. Evans, Merthyr, together with local officers. Major James expressed him- self very pleased with the event, and added- that he hoped the members would make an effort to attend camp at Porthcawl. In the meantime he urged all member to devote them- selves to the task of making them- selves efficient.
