PERSONAL AND SOCIAL. Mr. O. H. Bowen, eldest son of Mr. 1. W. Bowen, chemist, Criccieth, has passed the examinations for his diplomas as M.R.C.S. (Frog.) and L.R.C.P. (London). The Rev. Robert Roberts, Congregational minister and Chairman of the Congregational Union of Wales- is lying seriously ill at his re- sidenoe, Laurel House, Rhos, near Ruabon. ■* if The old students. of the University College of 2- North Wales have contributed up to date ^2,7*24 towards the new college bunding fund. Uine old student now in South Africa subscribed /5G0. "I am afraid that th-e bank-book has ousted the Bible and the ledger the prayer-book from the lives of many," said Canon E. T. Davies in the course of a sermon at Bangor Cathedral on Sunday. < IMlr. Funlyin Jones, manager for twenty years with Messrs. E. Owen and Sons, timber mer- chants, Portmadoc, and a deacon with the Cal- vinistic Methodist at Garth, Portmadoc, died suddenly on Sunday afternoon, aged 45. The induction of the new Vicar of Prestatyn,, the Rev. Meredith J. Hughes, took place on Monday afternooin at Christ Clhurch by the Rev. Thomas Lloyd, Vicar of Rhyl and rural dean of St. Asaph, in the unavoidable absence through infirmity of Archdeacon Evans. < < The presentations of an illustrated album to Mr. Lloyd George by his school and parishioners will, if the date suits the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, take place at the sohfool in the second week of February. There are 178 subscribers, and the presentation will be made by the Rev. Evan Evanis, Rector of Llansadwrai, Anglesey, who was a pupil teacher when the Chancellor was at school. < < < On Monday afternoon the death occurred, after a short illness, of MiY. Henry George Little, one of the best-kinown Chester grocers. Mr. Little was the head of the firm of John Little and Sons, and was a prominent Freemason, be- ing a member of the Caradoc Lodge, Rhyl, and of the Travellers' Lodge, Chester. He was aged 54, and leaves a widow and two children. He was well known in Chester and district and at Rhyl, where he resided at one time. Lord Harlech, who was 54 <n Thursday, is a keen bunting man. Among the historic relics at B-rogyntyn, Lord Harlech's place in Wales, is a rapier bearing the inscription Lord Capel, -the day before his execution, presented his sword to Sir John Owen, by whom, he said, he was convinced it would be worn. with honour." This Sir John Owen was an ancestor of Lord Har- lech and a friend of Oliver CrorawielL The Hon. W. Orm-sby-iGore, Unionist candidate for Denbigh Boroughs, who spoke at Old Colwyn last week, is Lord Harlech's only son.

WEEK BY WEEIi. .It would be interesting to know what Watt wots of the Penmaanbach accident." f, They were having one of their periodical tiffs. At last he picked up his morning paper in a rage, and as he proceeded to. catch his car to the Docks he shouted to. her Go to Tobermory, or Oban, or anywhere! < < < At Aberystwyth the Welsh Calvinistic Metho- dists officially claim over 3,000 worshippers. As the population of the town is only 8,000, it is evident that aboiut 40 per cent. of the residents belong to Yr Hen Gorff." < < < A Waexham man has come across an interest- ing find in a Flintshire village, viz., the copy of the rare first, edition of Llyfr yr Homiliau," which belonged to. Twm o'.r Nant, and has on the margin interesting notes in his own hand- writing. One of the last things, one would expect to pick up on the Continent would be a Welsh g-ra.mn-iax--and in maniusoript, too! Yet the Rev. T. Sliankland has just made such a find. lit is believed that the work was prepared ready for puuication by one of the Welsh, scholars on the Continent some 200 years ago. In order to be present at the meetings of the Carnarvonshire County Council and the Carnar- vonshire Education. Committee, which commenCe at io a.,m., several members for South Carnar- vonshire had to get up at 4 a.m., travel eight miles by road, and then by rail for Pwllheli to. Caxfnarvon. » < We begin) to mourn our lost youth at varying age's. The young lady from whose school-essay this passage is taken is eleven years o/ld I well remember, when I was younger, how I used to hang my stocking up and believe that a kind fairy whom we called -Santa Claus would come and fill it with presents. I often think that thotse days formed the most enjoyable time of my life." J < < < There is an agitation afoot to abolish the grand jiury. It has the support of Mx. J. Lloyd Morgan, M.P., the recorder of Swansea. He sums up the case in this way:—" The intefrests Off a prtisoner are, in my opinion, quite safe with- ,out the grand jury. His case is fully considered by the justice^ before he is committed for trial, and if he is dissatisfied with the verdict of the jury he can go to the Court of Criminal Appeal." < < The tram had reached the terminus, and the conductor smartly seized .the trolley-pole and swung it round to the, other end. The lights, of course, went out, and before ithe passengers had had time to get out. They've turned the lights out again," said one lady to another. They always do it on this. line. As soon as we get to the end out they go. Surprising how careful they are." Yes," said the other, trying to save the rates, I suppose." Many lovers of seaweed have written—with the conclusion that we need never worry about the wheat supply so long as there is the sea. A correspondent tells us that So-uth Wales finds a particular sort of green seaweed on its coast. After being it is boiled down, and made up-gernerally with oatmeal—into cakes, and eaten with bacon. It is called laver-bread, and is coinsidered a great delicacy. So let us paddle with oufr children on our summer holiday and gather the year's income!—(" Daily Chronicle.) » When the baby came to, Mary's home she was told that the doctor brought it. She thought sine kept an unlimited supply. Mary had been taught that politeness was one of the greatest charms a person could possess. One day the doctor called, and said, Mary, we have a new baby at our hou se. Would you like to go with me to see it?" Mary was delighted. The baby was very tiny, -only weighing three and a haM pounds. When Mary saw this frail bit of human- ity, sihe turned her face up to the doctor, and said, I think you are very polite to take the smallesft for yourself." it Discipline:—From the classroom occupied by the rougboeist boys in the Sunday School came a great uproar. A,secretary in the next room went to investigate. Complete silence followed the opening of the classroom door. Have you a teacher?" No." Do you want one?" No." Then be quiet, or you',u get one." Result, comparative peace. » It was Monday afternoon. A woman rushed excitedly down an alley in a certain quarter at Manchester and stopped at a house. She knocked once very nervously; no reply. A second knock, but still no answer. Presently the window above was hastily flung open, and a woman whose general disarray betrayed signs of a sudden awakening leaned out. The woman below looked up and exclaimed hurriedly: Mrs. Skinner, yeT 'usband's got ten days." Eh dearie me, Mrs Jones," replied the other, 'ow yer did frighten me; ah thought it was that divil after the rent agin." Welsh tlradetsmen can copy wdth advantage the enterprise of the tradesmen of America. The Americans are past masters of the art of ad- vertising, and spend three time.s as much money in advertising their wares, and, consequently, make ten times as much profit as their Welsh cousins this side the herring pond. Here, for instance, is how a WeLsh tradesman advertises his wares to his fellow-countrymen over there: Adam was a Welshman, Brecon man was he; Cuckoo was a Welshman, Singing up a tree; Noah was a Welshman, Built Ms arik of wood; Chopping down the Welsh oaks, Found them very good. The Leek it was a Welshman, Grown in Paradise; Rabbit was a Welshman, Wetlsh rabbit very nice. The King he was a Welshman, Ap Tudocc was his name; Prince of Wales a Welshman, From Carnarvon came. And winds up, with a couplet giving his own. name, businesp, and address. < As a rule, there is more tragedy than humour in bills, but there are exceptions. T.P.'s Weekly quotes one that may be seen in the Bodlean Library. It is to be found in a book entitled The Biritoin Described," by J. Tor- buck, which was printed in 1748, where the author, writing of Welsh manners and customs, quotes a Wellsrh surgeon's bill: — £ s. d. For launcin & scallin the boune of her leg-e o 10 o For ungts, ols, & liniiiirnt to anointe her lege. 076 For pills aurea, g-uilded with gro'd 0 7 6 For drams &cordio ls for hur & hur companeons 076 For runnin away and hindri-. me to have time to make her cure to perfiction a 10 o For envy, hatied & mallis, & ill-wili, in speaking, utterin & purnouncin sevrall reflections upon me & my hous I 13 0 For brekin the glus in my glas window with hur horse's nose 0 I 0 — 5 iS 6 the humour of this is delightful all through, but perhaps the mosrt hlUmorollis item is the fine inflicted on Mrs. Madox for her running away." A surgeon who could charge his patient for what he did not do for her as well as for what he did do was surely an unconscious wit off the first water.

DISESTA B LISIlillENT. A VEHY IMPORTANT document was issued on Monday by the Special Campaign Committee 01 the Welsh Free Churches. It embodies the principles which Welsh Free Churahwen regard as essential to a Bill for Welsh Church Dises- tablishment and Disendowment, and is the framework on which it is expected that the Gov- ernment will build the Bill which Mr. Asquith promised a Welsh Free Church deputation last July shioutld be introduced in the next session of Parliament. Since the Prime Minister's sym- pathetic reception of that deputation the Cam- paign Committee of the Welsh Free Churches ha;" been at work on the suggestions which are now issued. They were prepared by Mr. W. Beddoe Rees, of Cardiff, in consultation with the Rev. Evan Jones, Carnarvon (President-elect of the National'Free Church Council), the Rev. T. E. Williams, Newtown (President-elect of the Welsh Baptist Union-), Professor Levi, Aber- ystwyth, and others. The main principles by which the Committee declare they have been gtuaded and the details of the scheme outlined by the Bill wonold be read with the greatest in- terest by an sections of the community at other times in the political history of Wales but it mtust be confessed that at the present moment the Committee speak to an apathetic audience. The Dd-sastablisbimeint movement has had a varied history, and a ohart recording the lines of public approval or disapproval would show high pinnacles and deep depressions. At one moment it would reveal Welsh public opinion hot and strong in its favour; at another moment it would show a state of utter indifference. And it mulSlt be admitted that the present is one of the periods of slump iu its history. It is true that the Prime Minister has recognised the claims of Wiedsih Nonconformity, and has given a pledge in regard to the introducion and pass- ing of a measure of Disestablishment. But what were the exact terms of the pledge which Mir. Asqaiith gave to the deputation on July 23rd last? It would be impossible and most un- wise," he said, for anyon-e who had not the gift of prevision to say what would happen within the next twelve months or two years, but most clearly and distinctly it was their hope and it was their intention to submit next session to Par- liament proposals dealing with this matter. Tihat hope might be frustrated and their in- Iten,tions might be defeated. If they were, it would be through no fault of their own. Whatever one's poilitical views may- be, it mUISIt be evident to every observer of current political events that those hopes have been frustrated and those intentions have been defeated. The question of Disestablishment, like many other important questions, has bean pushed from its rightful position into the background by recent developments in connection with the House of Lords. The authority of the Second Chamber has become the dominating --issue in preseint-day politics, and until that is settled* there is abso- lutely no hope that the Lords would pass a Disestablishment Bill. For the OJmffiOflls to spend time and energy in debating and passing such a measure, well knowing that it was fore- doomed to Dejection in another place," would be noth-iag but a solemn farce. This has been recognised by Mr. Lloyd George himself, who in a recent speech in London made it quite clear that Welsh Liberals must put aside their own aspirations for a while and devote their energies to assisting Mr. Asquith and other leaders in an attack upon the privileges of the hereditary Chamber. Not only does the scheme of the Campaign Committee see the light on a date subsequent to Mr. Lloyd George's significant utterance, but it also comes at a time when Liberal feeling is comparatively cold. There < are many Nonconformists in Wales to whom the ideal of religious freedom is very dear. But it is quite evident that many things will have to be doce before their hopes can be realised. It is true that variations of public opinion follow one another in rapid succession, and that no. one knows what a day may bring forth. But taking things as they are, it must be realised that the L.. Committee's report has met with a very languid reception. It is questionable whether at any time the Liberal party will carry a Disestablish- ment Bill for Wales. Welsh Disestablishment will certainly come; but when it does come it will coma from within.
