Notes and News.
Notes and News. Parliament has been opened by the King. It will soon be closed by Mr. Redmond. Some Unionist prophets declare that we shall have another General Election in May. Next Tuesday evening the Right Hon. D. Lloyd George will be the principal speaker at the Welsh Dinner held at the Trocadero. For particulars see our advertisement columns. One of the best Welsh concerts in London to celebrate the immortal memory of St. David is that arranged by the Castle Street Literary Society, which will be given this Saturday evening, February 26th, and pro- mises to be an unusually attractive event. II SIR ALFRED THOMAS. Sir Alfred Thomas, M P., has again been appointed chairman of the Welsh Parlia- mentary Party. He is a genial leader of men, and well liked by all members of the House. The late Mr. Griffith George, J.P., Aber- dare, who died whilst on his way to Las Palmas, was a bard of considerable ability. Mr. George had been connected with the drapery trade for many years, and was, in his younger days, head lace buyer at Mar- shall and Snellgrove, London. Mr. Roberts, the genial secretary of the Welsh Society of Newport, is a native of Anglesey. He is headmaster of Corporation Road Council Schools, which are some of the finest and best equipped in Wales or the West Mr. Roberts has written some inter- esting articles to Welsh periodicals. One of his favourite pastimes is angling. A small restaurant keeper in a West Wales colliery town has printed his bill of fare in Welsh," and placed it in a pro- minent position in the windows. Here are two items which a CELT representative copied exactly as they appeared Cig moch a tatws gydag e 6d. Te a teisen o'r fath oreu 9d. Although Cardiff is generally considered to be the metropolis of Wales, it is sur- prising how few are the Welsh street names to be found there. There are more Welsh street names in Newport, a town that does not claim to be even Cymrig. It is to be hoped that Welshmen will take special care in seeing that no Liberal candi- date rejected by an English constituency is dumped down in Wales. There have been far too many already. There is no doubt that the stories related during the Election in reference to German "horse sausages" and "black bread" are very silly. A CELT representative, who recently had a chat with a Welshman who has lived for several years in various German towns, was informed that the German working man had quite as good food as the Briton, if not better. The public houses of London are gradually being lessened under the present Compensa- tion system, and at the Sessions held this week, ninety houses were deprived of their licences, which involved a compensation of £ 230,000. In advocating the claims of one house for suitable compensation, Mr. Hum- phreys, the solicitor, said, The house is very favourably situated, and is a very good one, being between a workhouse and a church." A very notable trio in truth Mr. Gwyn Jones, the chaired bard, who is now the chief cataloguer at the National Library of Wales at Aberystwyth, will shortly publish a fresh volume of poems, to be followed later on by a biography of the late Emrys ap Iwan, the author of the Homiliau," with selections from his works.
