Teacners' Salaries.
Teacners' Salaries. To the Editor of the I- County Echo." Sir,—With reference to a paragraph by "A Scribbler" anent teachers' salaries in your issue of the 3rd inst, I should like to add a. few words to the same. The salaries offered (X20 to zC30 according to qualifications) are a striking commentary on what is usually termed the Welsh zeal for education The local Education Authority places any school at a great disadvantage by offering such salaries to teachers-wages that general servants and cooks would ignore. Why should any person with a grain of sense accept such paltry incomes ? Young women teachers are much to blame for accepting such posts. It is bad enough in all conscience, and it is the teachers duty to abstain from applying for such paltry appointments thereby compelling the authority to offer a larger and a living wage. Where, again, does efficiency come in ? We want good teachers—some of the best—for the educating of our children. A less efficient teacher means less efficient teaching, and it is our children who will suffer in the longrun by such an adverse policy. Many a local authority have realised the difficulty of obtain- ing teachers at the miserable rate of salaries which they offer, and have endeavoured to inveigle young persons into the teaching profession in large nembers in the hope of increasing the supply. It is most unfair to punish the teachers in the schools for the in- justice of the Education Act. It is unfair also to the children. If fair treatment is not given to the teachers (in voluntary schools especially) Pembrokeshire will be nothing more than the dumping ground of professional failures—teachers with lower qualifications than those in other parts of Wales. The local education authority controls the appointment and dismissal of teachers and has control over the money bags—as long as they have the latter they had an enormous amount of responsibility put into their hands-and I agree with Scribbler that it is time that teachers in all schools in the county should be placed on the same ground of equality according to their status. Teachers, especially in voluntary schools, are suffering under an injustice and deserve credit and more money for the way in which they have devoted them- selves to their educational work. Thanking you for inserting my letter, with apologies for trespassing on your valuable space. Faithfully yours, PROGRESS.'

---FISHGUARD.
FISHGUARD. Bethel Baptist Church.-The Ilev W Inglis James, of Barry, will officiate next Sunday, morning in Welsh, and English in the evening. At 2 o'clock Mrs W R James, India, wilt deliver an address on Zenena mission work.—Advt. Salo of Work.-The sale of work in connection with Hermon Baptist Church takes place on Saturday afternoon next, and to which, it is hoped, generous public support will he accorded. Stall-holders are respect fully asked to be at their places early, as the I sale will be opened promptly at 2 o'clock. Shorthand Success.—Messrs T W Williams, Penslade, and Willie Thomas, Good wick House, have gained the second certificate for a thorough knowledge of shorthand. Not only do these pupils know the art, but are able to write at a fairly good rate of speed from dictation. They are inembers ot Mr Howarth's class of shorthand. Tea on Peuslade.-A very opportune in- novation on Regatta day is in the diligent hands of Mrs Evans, the Vicarage, who is arranging to provide tea, cake, and the usual toothesome things in plentitude and variety, all tor the modest sum of sixpence, which in turn gat S towards the Women's Home Mission fund, a cause that is constantly excercising much influence for good. Fiahguardians are always ready to support worthy causes and, quite apart from that, bow very con- veuient to be able to obtain a tip-top cup of tea on such an occasion. It goes without saying that the people will appreciate the boon by patronising the tea s'all. Captain Rapson, KM; M.V.O., and Mrs Rapson, have had the honour of an invita- tion to the ball at the Naval Barracks, PorLt- mouth, next week, at which will be present their Majesties the King and Queen, the Prince of vVales, Duke of Counaugut, & j The ball is given in honour of the visit to this country of the French FJeet. Mr D G Protheroe, of Dolwilym, Hebron, wishes us to state that the subscription list towards the testimonial to the King's Saiop- shire Light Infantry will be closed on August 16th. Cycling Accidents.—On Thursday last two local cyclists—Messrs A J James, West- street, and Howard Roberts, Anchor House —collided with each other in High-street, James sustaining blight injuries to his knee. -On Monday a Lower Town cyclist ran into a pedestrian in High-street, the result of riding too furiously- but, fortunately, neither of these sustained any injury. A Retort.—"A Constant Reader writes c. Some few weeks ago I read in your columns a letter advocating greater support by resi- dents to local tradesmen and business people generally. Now, I believe in supporting home industries as much as anyone, but when business men abuse their apportunities aud take advantage of those who are anxious to support them they have only tbemselv^ s to blame if people go outside the town to obtain their requirements." Oddfeilows.-The annual confbrence of the British United Order of Oddfellows was opened at Suuderlaud on Mouday. Grand Master Taylor, in his openiug speech, regretted that there had been nearly 1000 withdrawals during the year, and urged districts to greater efforts. Public policy bad increase their burdens, and public policy ought to realise the n. The Government should give them old-age pensions. He advocated a federation ot all triendly societies, which, he said, would be a glorious thing for Eug- land. Cycling.—We are asked to state that the bicycle with which Mr Jack Evans rode up Dinas hill was budt by Mr W Jenner, of Letterston, it being one of his ordinary makes and not built for the occasion. Regatta.—This popular eveut will take place on Tuesday next and promises to be one of the best yet held. The entries, parti- cularly for the sailing races and aquatic sports, are expected to be very numerous. The hon Secretary (Vlr Ll Y Williams) is sparing no effort in order to make this year's event an exceptional one-from an attractive and enjoyable standpoint The evening concert at the Temperance lIall promises to be a very attractive one, socne of the finest vocalists ot the Prinicipality having been engaged to take part, as will be seen by th advertisement in another column. Female Lodge.—Young women desirious of joining the female lodge about to be formed in connection with the Loyal Gwain Lodge of Oddfellows are requested to meet at the Swan Clubroom on Friday evening, August 18th, at 8 o'clock. Urban Powers.—Rumour has it that the application by the Parish Council for urban powers has again failed, on the ground, f so we are informed, of the objection raised that the Committee had no power to accept an alternate area at the inquiry, while the notice was for the conversion of the whole parish into an urban district. SUNDAY SCHOOLS'TEA-TRE ITS. The Sunday Schools of the various Non- conformist Churches in the town had their annual tea-treats on Friday last, but the day was not by any means an ideal one for out- door festivities of this nature, and, in conse- quence of the heavy downfall of rain in the morning, the arrangements for holding the treats in the open air at various places had to be abandoned. The Tower Hill C.M. School held their treat 1n lhe Vestry-r°oni, where a capital spread of all kinds of dainty things was much wnjoyed, the airangements having been carried out by Mr W Willia,msJj superintendent of the school, ably assisted by a number of willing helpers. Those presiding at the trays were: Miss Evans, Bodmor, and Miss James, Lower Town Miss Edith Lamb, Lower Town, and Miss E A Howells Miss Peggy Lewis and Mies Jenny Davies; Miss Maggie Ihomas, Anghorfa, and Miss Mina George, Tregroes. After tea—the rain having cleared-the rest of the afternoon was spent in out-door amuse- ments in a field kindly lent by Mr E D Jones, J. P. The Tabernacle School had their treat in the Town Hall, where full justice was done to the excellent spread provided. After meeting at the chapel the members marched to the hall, and here everything was in readi- ness to satisfy the inner man. The tray- holders and those assisting were the follow- ing Mrs E Davies, Mrs J C James, Miss Rees (Ferndale), Mrs George (Ffynonstown), Mrs Thomas, Miss C Thomas, Miss M Row- lands, Miss M A Owen, Miss Williams, Mrs Cullington, Misses A Davies, P D Perkins, B Harris, and Davies (Shopybobl), Mrs W M Davies, and Misses Gronow and Owen. Those who kindly supplied the water b were Mrs Roberts, Mrs Martin, Mrs Narbett, Mrs S Thomas (Wallis), and Mr Griffiths (Farmers' Arms). The delicious cake was supplied by Mr Thomas, of Goodwick House. Mr J E James, Spring Gardens, who is the superin- tendent of the school, worked assiduously in order to make the treat as successful and en- joyable as possible, and in this be was ably assisted by an energetic committee. —— I TR-INA The new Baptist Sunday School, in conse- quence of the weather, abandoned their pro- posed trip to Rosebush, and held their treat at the Temperance Hall, where they spent a very enjoyaole afternoon. Presiding at thf- tables were Mrs Griffiths, Castle St<.re3 Edwards' High-street; Mrs Evaus, street; Mrs Cuthbert Thomas and sister were assisted by Miss Edwards, Mbs Mf Miss Reynolds and several others. Hermon School met at the Chapol o'clock, and, after spending srrne time i singing hymns, a procession was formed, ana it was unquestionably the largest processiou ever held in connection with this School. After marching through the town, singing en route, the procession returned to the Market- house, where well-arranged and heavily-laden tables of excellent cake of various kinds awaited their arrival, and a hot. of waiters and attendants ready to serve the hundreds who had gathered. Mr Griffith Thomas, the superintendent of the school, had arranged every detail so well that the gathering of from 700 to 800 children and grown up people were entertained without the slightest hitch in any particular. Those presiding at the different tables were the following: Mrs and Miss George (chemist), Mrs Rosser and Miss Walters {.vioravve ), Miss Thomas, Tynewydd, and Miss Richards, Wallis; Miss Evans, Frouhaul, and Miss C A Williams. High -street Misses Jones and Misses Davies, Wallis Mrs and Miss Paterson, Wallis Miss Davies, Bon March6 j Mrs Thomas, Railway House Misses Oweu, Lligh street Mrs G G Evans, L nver Towil Mrs Henry Evans and Mrs Enoch Davies, Lower Town Miss Bowen, Brodo", Terrace and Miss Lizzie Thomas, High-street. Tne cake, which was of a really excellent quality, was supplied by Mrs Harries, Lower Town. and Mr W Pater- son, Wallis. Tea being over, both Hermon and the Tabernacle schools joined in out-door recreation in a field opposite Gwynfa (giving a full view of the bay), kindly lent by Mr T H Narbett, butcher, where a very pleasant evening was spent by an immense concourse of people of all ages.—In connection with L Hermon treat, we are asked to acknowledge the kindness of the following :—Mrs Wilcox, Hottipass, for tea, sugar, sweet and nuts, Mrs Harries, Lower Town, sweet Mr D Rees, baker, 20U buns Mr Fraud George (saddler), and Mr T H Narbett. ° A correspondent asks us to suggest that in future years all the Sunday'Schools of the town should join in a united tea treat, to be held the latter end of June or early in July, before the busy visitors' season. This, he says, would give a better opportunity to those ladies who are anxious- to join and assist, as well as instill in the fiainds of the young a better feeling of Christian fellow- ship.

The fact that this Party has appeared before Royalty on several occasions is a sufficient proof of its merit and wa therefore qo hesitafioa in sta.ting that the concerts may be anticipated as rich musical treats —Seats may bt booked on application to the hon. secretary, Mr Hugh George (chemist).—For fuller particulars we would refer our readers to the advertisement in another column.
, Counterfeit Coins at Fishguard.
Counterfeit Coins at Fishguard. —A WARNING.— A report has reached us of a daring attempt at Fishguard on Saturday last on the part of a, strange woman to pass counter- feit coins. The woman entered a certain business house in the town and made pur- chases to the amount of Si 178 6d, tendering what purported to be two sovereigns in payment, but what really turned out to be two gold-gilded shillings. Fortunately, the t5 ra f.soiM) detected the fraud in the nick of tune. He (luestionel the stranger and pointed out to tier the risk she was running by offering: such coins, whereupon she replied that they had been given her at Goodwick, naming a certain person. She expressed regret and promis3d to return for the goods, a'1d, believing her tale, the tradesman allowed her to go, but he has seen nothing of her since, and this has naturally led him to believe that the woman had fraudalent inten- tions. He has asked us to warn tradespeople generally against this imposter and others of her class. The stranger, who said she was from Cardiff, was short in stature, dressed in black, and was of a dark complexion.
Fatal Accident on the Pier…
