Hwnt ac Yma. [Gan TZITRIWIL"] Galwyd ni yr wythnos ddiweddaf i dalu y gymwynas olaf i foneddi^es garedig, ac o gymeriad diamheuol dduwiol, a adwaenem yn dda er ys llawer blwyddyn bellach, yr t hon yn ei dydd a breswyliai mewn lie a elwir Waunrhiwmoch, yn nhreflan Berach, ond cyn myned vno, rhaid oedd passio LLANFIHANGEL-ABERBYTHYCH, LLANFIHANGEL-ABERBYTHYCH, a syllu o gwmpas, ar y ddeheu a'r aswy, ar y golygfeydd swynol a phrydferth, gan y bwriadwn fyned trwy y lie yn bur fuan etto. Cyfyngwn em sylwadau y tro hwn, ac awn yn syth i lanerch dlos PENRHIW, lie y cawsom Mrs. Fisher wrth fodd ei chalon, ac yn gorchymyn i'w merch, Mrs. John Evans, gyda y brys mwyaf i Gyrchu rhen Forgan i'r tan, A'r llestri a'r llwyau'n eu lie, Y bwrdd arlwyedig o'm blaen, I'r Teithiwr gael teisen o the. Ao felly y bu, a chafwydmwynhad rhagorol, am yr hyn yr ydym yn dra diolchgar. Fiwrdd a ni, weithiau yn cael ein harwain ar ffordd ddieithr, gan Mrs. Evans a Mrs. Williams, Tyle, gynt o Cefn Martin, a chawsom wybodaeth am y lleoedd cylchynol gan y boneddigesau, sef Golwg y Byd, Lan Shon Harri, Samaria, &c., a dyddordeb mawr a deimlem ar y daith. Wedi cyr- haedd ein man appwyntiedig, gwelsom yma amryw o wynebau a adwaenem yn dda, a balch oeddem o'r cydgyfarfyddiad. Yn gymaint ag fod preswylfan yr ymadaw- edig, a chapel y Berach mor agos, wedi canu. emyn yn unig yn ymyl y ty, bu yr oil o'r gwasanaeth yn y capel, yr hyn oedd yn fanteisiol iawn. Darllenwyd a gweddiwyd gan y Parch. Job Herbert, Penrhiwgoch, a phregethwyd yn darawiadol gan y Parch. D. Davies, ei gweinidog, oddiar y geiriau yn psalm 45, Dysg i ni felly gyfrif ein dyddiau," &cw ac ar lan y bedd gweddiwyd yn afaelgar a thoddedig gan y Parch. T. Thomas, Carmel .a Soar. Yna gadawsom Margaret Roberts yn ei hargel wely hyd y boreu mawr pryd y deffry teulu'r dyffryn, wedi treulio 81 mlynedd yn ngwlad y cys- tudd mawr, a rhan fwyaf o honynt yn ddi- fwlch yng ngwaith a gwasanaeth y Meistr mawr. Tysti°laetii pavb am dani oedd ei bod wedi dewis v rhan dda, yr hont ni ddygir oddiarni." Cysured y Nef y perth- ynasau oil yn y dydd blin hwn. LLANFYNYDD. Ystorom arw welwn etto wedi dyfod i gwrdd a'n cyfeillion hoff a'n cymydogion caredig, Mr. a Mrs. Thomas, o fferm Troed- yrhiw, ger y pentref uchod. Ymddengys fod eu hanwyl. fab, David Thomas, 24 oed, gyda chydymaith iddo ar y maes yn gwas- garu pridd, pryd y syrthiodd mewn llewyg, ac y bu farw! t Mae ein cydymdeimlad Ilwyraf a'r teuiu anwyl hyn; dyma y trydydd mab iddynt golli yn olynol. Syrth- iodd un o honynt ar faes y frwydr; bu arall farw yn hyirod sydyn yn ddiweddar, ac wele Dafydd etto yn hollol annisgwyliadwy. Ni fu trengholiad arno, gan fod y meddyg medrus, Dr. Timothy, o Nantgaredig, yn sicrhau yr awdurdodau o'i farwolaeth sydyn, a'r achos o honi. Cofied y teulu galarus yn yr ystorom enbyd hon y geiriau cysurlawn hVny— Nid ar foreu hyfryd tawel Gweld Iesu'n rhodio'r don, Ond ar noswaith o gyfyngder, Pan oedd pryder dan bob bron; Ni fu nos na thywydd garw Allsai gadw f' Arglwydd draw; Ni fu neb erioed mor isel Na chai afael yn ei law. Cofied plant y gorthrymderau y geiriau cysurlawn hyn. Y CYNHAUAF. Mae prysur ddyddiau y cynhauaf wedi goddiweddyd yr hwsmon y dyddiau hyn. Bydd y cnydau yn dra toreithiog, a'r hin ar y cyfan yn bur ffafriol, ond pan ar ein teithiau yr ydym yn synu am ami i am- aethwr fod ei amynedd mor fyr a'i ffydd mor wan yn.y Gwr sydd yn dal y gwynt yn ei ddwrn a'r mor a'r gledr ei law. Pe medrai y dosbarth hwn, byddai y cyfan gan- ddynt hwy yn yr ydlanau heb hidio am ansawdd na mesur; rhyw geffylau blaen yw y rhai hyn, a diolch, ychydig a gwasgarog ydynt. Y dydd o'r blaen aethom trwy faes Mr. Henry Griffiths, Towy Cottage, ger Llandeilo; yr oedd yn anrheg i sylwi ar y cae gwenith; yr oedd y cnwd mor dda ac mor gyfrodedd tros y maes eang ar lan y Tywi ddolenog, ac wedi ei amaethu mor dda gan Mr. Griffiths, a'r tywysenau oil yn ysgwar yn eu penau, fel nad oes yr un petrusder yn meddwl neb pwy bynag na fydd y 1 maes hwn yn talu ar ei ganfed. Hir oes i Mr. Griffiths i gadw y marc fel un o brif amaethwyr Dyffryn bras y Tywi.

Clywetfigion "Myrddinfab t Clywais bod entries da wedi d'od i mewn am y Regatta a gynhelir y prydnawn yma yng Nghaerfyrddin. Cofiwch drigolion Caerfyrddin, bod yr arian a gesglir yng nglyn a'r Regatta yma yn myned i brynu bwyd i gareharorion milwrol y dref sydd yn gaethion yng ngwlad yr Huns creulawn. Helpwch y pwyllgor gwe'ithiol, chwi wyr dref, 1\ Clywais amryw yn gofyn i Myrddinfab" yn ddiweddar os oedd yn fyw. Mwy byw nag erioed," oedd yr atebiad. See the point. 1 Clywais bod gwerthwyr llaeth o ddrws i ddrws yng Nghaerfyrddin ddim yn cael yr un chwareu teg ag y mae yr amaethwyr sydd yn gyru y llaeth i Forganwg a manau ereill. Mae yr amaetbwyr sydd yn gwerthu eu llaeth o ddrws i ddrws yn cymmeryd tair awr yn y boreu, a thair awr yn yr hwyr at y gwaith, ac eto y mae yr awdur- dodau yn disgwyl iddynt i drin hyn a hyn o dir. Dylem ni fel trigolion y dref gofio am yr amaethwyr sydd yn rhoddi i ni ych- ydig llaeth. Nid yw pethau fel hyn yn myned i bara yn dragywydd. Daw tro ar bethau cyn bo hir, a bvdd stop ar Derby Races Llaeth ar heolycfd ein tref. Mae heolydd Caerfyrddin yn cael eu treulio, yn ddirfawr gan y wagons trwm yma, a dim dimai yn d'od i mewn at eu cadw mewn repair." Clywais yrig Nghydweli prydnawn Sadwm diweddaf fod y trigolion ytio yn dQyrngar dros ben i'r milwvr perthynol i'r dref, a bod yr hen batriarch o Gapel Sul (Parch. W. JC. Jenkins) yn gweithio yn egniol er rhoddi help i'r ysgrifenydd mygedol (Mr. D. 0. Jones, ysgol yr Hen Gaetell). Good, old Jenkins. Yn awr offeiriaia a gweinidog- ion y dref a'r cylch, all hands upon deck, 09 am arbed ein gwlad fyned yn llongdçlryH- iad. Clywais nad yw'r pregethwr poblogaidd a pharchus, y Parch. W. Waldo Lewis, B.A., 1 Penuel (B), Heol-y-Prior, Caerfyrddth, ddim yn ymadael a'r drcf yma. Da genyf glywed hyn. Yr wyf wedi cael y tip eich bod fel addolwyr y lie wedi penderfynu nad yw Mr. Lewis i ymadael o gwbl—copied a gostio. *Bravo, gyfeillion Penuel; a. noble act en your part.

'SLAWER DYDD." Daeth y gyfrol yn dwyn y teitl uchod i'n llaw. Yr awdwr yw Mr. W. Llewelyn Wil- liams, A.S. Yr ydym droion wedi dfttgan ein barn yn gryf parthed amryw o syn- iadau politicaidd Mr. Williams, ond fel hanesydd Cymreig yr ydym yn barod i dalu .evrnged iddo. Er yn wr hyddysg yn y gyfraith-cangen o wasanaeth heb fa^vr "sentiment" yn perthyn iddi, eto ysgrif- enB. yr awdwr mor swynol a phe na fuasai yn gwneyd dim ond canu drwy'r dydd, a breuddwydio'r nos am y dyddiau gyrt. Edrydd hanesion digrif mewn dull ddifyr dros ben. Swynwyd ni yn fàwr iawn gan ei ddewisiad hapus o eiriau, a'r modd meis- trolgar y llusg i fewn eiriau a thermau lleol. Y mae llawer iawn o eiriau ddefn- yddi., yn disgyn fel miwsig ar y glust drwy ei adnabyddiaeth lwyr o honynt a'r modd i'w iawn leoli; ond pe gosodasid hwy mewn modd arall fuasent yn anurddo v gwaith yn arobeithiol.

"Myrddinfab" Mewn Dw'r Poeth Unwaith Eto. CUL O'R CULAF'' Y TRO YMA, AC NID FFOL O'R FFOLAF." Hawddammor! hawddammor! i ti fy hell gyfaill, Edmygydd Twm 'Barels." DarUenais dy lith gyda dyddordeb mawr yn y "Carmarthen journal" iim yr wythnos ddiweddaf. Bum mewn penbleth fawr am fisoedd pellach yng jighylch dy bersonol- iaeth. Disgwyl, disgwyl ar hyd yr hir- nos," ond i ddim pwrpas hyd ddydd Gwener diweddaf, Awst 16eg, 1918, pryd y derbyn- iais air o dy law. Y tro olaf cefais air iyt oed4 Chwefror 22ain, 1918, o dan yr enw Glan Teifi." Ni fuost yn ddigon ffalst (cunning, crafty.) i guddio dy hun y .ma mai ti a ysgrifenaist o dan yr enw •' Glan Teifi yn y "'Journal" am Chwef- ror 22ain, ac lidmygydd Twm 'Barels'' yn y "J omnal" am Awst 16eg diweddaf. Pe oyddet ti wedi gadael allan Q dy lythyr am ddydd Gwener diweddaf y_ frawddeg bert, fol o'r ffolafbyadet, .digon tebyg, wedi dyrysu tipyn o "Myrddinfab" i ryw ddau. Nid yw hyny ddim o bwya genyf, pa. un ai yr un, neu ddau berson gwa- jianol, yw yr awdwr neu'r awduron. Dy- edais yn fy "Nhlywedigion pa ddydd iy <d yn creduy gallai ddarllen gwyn- <1 a personau pan y gwelaf hwy am y tro cyntaif; fy mod yn dipyn o phrenologist beiiglog-ddysg) heb gyffwrdd a'r pen; a dywedais hefyd fy mod (neu yn. credu) yn dipyn o "brophwyd." Mae rhai personau i'w caei yn y byd yma yn abl i ddarllen cyfansoddiadau personau, er yn ysgrifenu o dan wahanol ffug-enwau. Yn awr, fy nghyfaill, pan y byddost eto yn ysgrifenu dan ffug-enwau gwahanol, ac i ddyrysu "Myrdnfab," danfon dy "manuscript" (ysgrifen, ysgr if waith) at ryw un mawr. Byddant yn falch iawn i gael cyfie i reviso dy waith, ac yn enwedig pau y byddost yn ysgrifenu yn erbyn y penboethyn Eglwyeig, "Myrddinfab." Hyd yma o Ragymadrodd yr wythnos hon. Gyda chaniatad Gol. parchus y "Journal, w cei.siaf ddweyd ychydig eiriau mewn atebiad i'r person urddasol yma, a byddaif mor fyred ag y gallaf, am fod y .gofod yn gyfyng dros ben y dyddiau hyn. 1. Edmygydd T.B." yn defnyddio enwau dirmygus ac annheilwng er iselhau "Myrddinfab." Gellir dweyd fod y dynion mwyaf a disgleiriaf wedi cael. eu galw wrth yr enwau mwyaf diraddiol, a hyny am y rheswm eu bod yn ceisio am- ddiffyn uniondeb a daioni. Ie, oni ddy- wedwyd am "Waredwr y byd," Y mae Eife yn ynfydi? Nid yw enwau anghar- edig a dirmygus, yn debyg i'r rhai a ddefn- yddir .gan y gohebydd urddasol hwn, yn adlewyrchu rhinwedd arno ef ei hun, nao mewn gwirionedd yn niweidio gwrddrych ei saethau gwenwynllyd. 2. Yn cyhuddo "Myrddinfab" o GULNI. Mae y gohebydd yma yn gwneyd camsynied dybryd pan yn dyweyd fy mod yn feddianol ar ysbryd "culni" wrth geisio gwneyd fy rhan i symud ffwrdd yr ysbryd enllibus, angharedig, ac annheg ag y mae rhai dosbarth o ddynion yn ddangos tuag sefydtiadau cyssegredig a goruchel, megys ei Eglwys Ef," ac hefyd tuag bersonau urddasol a da sydd yn dal perthynas a'r Sefydliad mwyaf cyssegredig sydd yn bod yn y byd. Mae ymddygiad o'r fath yn iy nghynhyrfu i'r eithafion. Ie, dyweded Edmygydd.T.B." fel y myno fe: md culni ysbryd yw y nodwedd sydd yn fy ^mbylu i wneuthur brwydr yn erbyn -unrhyw ysbryd annheilwng o'r fath, ond zel tanllyd dros hawliau hen" Eglwys y Tadau" a'r ffyddloniaid tcil-A4 sydd yn aberthu ao yn gweithio drosti. Nid yw Myrddinfab yn cre3u mSwn culm adgas-beth yw hyny yn fy ngolwg. Nis gwn pa un fod Edmygydd T.B. yn darllen Seren 'Lymru ai peidio. Yn y Seren am yr wythnos ddiweddaf, y mae rhyw ysgrifen- ydd, wrth roddi hanes am y Gymmanfa Canu yn nglyn a'r Eisteddfod Genedlaethol .a gynhaliwyd yn Nghastell Nedd ychydig ddyddiau yn ol, yn dangos yn eglur beth yw Culni. Nid oes gair yn yr adroddiad pwy oedd y'llywydd yn y prydnawn; Esgob Llandaf oedd hwnw; ond am Lywydd yr hwyr dywed yr ysgrifenydd—" Traddododd y Llywydd, y Prif-athro W. Edwards, Caer- dydd, un o'r areithiau grymusaf a mwyaf pwrpaeol a glywyd ar achlysur o'r fath erioed. Treiddiai ei lais yn rhwydd i gonglau pellaf y babell, a bu ei eiriau yn foddion i ddyrchafu'r gynnulleidfa i ysbryd addoli," Esgob Llandaf yn "hen" Eg- lwyswr; dim gair am hwnw; ond am y Trochwr (Prifathro W. Edwards) canmol- iaeth bron cyffwrdd a'r nefoedd! Onid Culni o'r rhyw waethaf yw pethau o'r fath hyn? Diolch nad oedd y lienor enwog, Awstin," mor gul a'r ysgrifenydd yn "Seren Cymru." Nid rhyfedd bod Myr- ddinfab" yn berwi ar amserau! 3. Pwy sydd yn.cyfranu tuag at ein earch- arorion rhyfel yn Germani! Gofynaf o ddifrif, ai dim ond aelodau y capeli yn unig sydd yn cyfranu? Pob parch i bawb sydd yn agor eu .calon i wneyd yr aberth mwyaf mewn haelfrydedd er helpu'r gwan, a'r n caeth, a'r carcharor angenus sydd yng ngwlad y creulawn estron. Ond rhodded y gohebydd hwn hefyd ba'rch lie y mae parch yn ddyledus. Onid yw aelodau haelfrydig yr Eglwys hefyd am y parotaf yn aberthu trwy gyfranu a helpu y carcharor helbulus ac angenus" sydd yn dyoddef yng ngwlad yr Ellmyn didcimlad? Ni ddywed- ais nad yw y capeli yn cynnorthwyo yn hyn o Ifeth. (Gwel y Local News yn y "Jour- nal" yn wythnosol.) 4 Compliment Edmygydd T.B." i "Myrddihfab" am feddwl yn uchel am yr "Eglwys" ac am "Esgob Ty Ddewi." Da genyf feddwl fod cymmaint ag yna o ysbryd tyner a theg yn dyfod i'r golwg gan y gohebydd yma, gan fod ei ysbryd yn dra gwahanol yn nechreu ei lith hwn tuag ataf, trwy ei fod yn priodoli enwauv dirmygus r mi, yr hyn sydd yn arwydd fod ei ysbryd, beth byaag, heb fod yn y cywair priodol. A rhaid i mi ddweyd yn rhydd ao yn rhwydd, fy mod yn ddibetrds yn meddwl yn ücõel iawn am yr Eglwya" fel y -t sefydliad mwyaf cyssegredig gan Dywysog Tangnefedd i lefeinio gwyneb y ddaiar a'i ysbryd addfwyn a thangnefeddus Ef. Ac hefyd, ddymunwn ddweyd fy mod heb un petrusder yn meddwl yn uchel am y Gwir Barch. Arglwydd Esgob Ty Ddewi, fel un o urddasolion "yr Eglwys" ag sydd yn ceisio aberthu a gWeithio er hyrwyddo llwyddiant teyrnas Tywysog Tangnef- edd." 5. Paham na fyddai mwy yn mynychii, "Hen Eglwys y Tadau?" Gellir gofyn yr' un gofyriiad mewn perthynas i'r cynnull- iadau yn y capeli, a hyny gyda sobrwydd- Pa ham na buasai mwy yn mynychu? Gellir dweyd fod sefyllfa pethau y dyddiau enbyd hyn trwy y rhyfel yn sicr o fod yn un o'r achosion ag sydd yn cyfrif am hyn. Ond gadawaf i Edmygydd T.B." ateb y gofyniad pwysig hwn drosto ei hun. Ie, pa ham fod gan ein Gwaredwr, pan ar y ddaiar, fwy o elynion nag o ffrynSiau? Pa ham fod mwy, o ran rhif, yn mynychu Eg- IlwYB Sant Pedr, Caerfyrddin, ar 'y Suliau, nag sydd mewn chwech o gapeli y dref? Pa ham fod gan Mr. Lloyd George, pan ddewiswyd ef gan y Brenin i fod yn Brif Weinidog, fwy o elynion yn Senedd Pryd- ain Fawr nag o ffryndiau? Os yw y capeli mor Huosog o ran eu cynhulleidfaoedd, fel y dywed yr hogyn, difarf dan sylw, pa ham fod y 'Sectau yn ofni religious census," sef cael allan nifer mynychwyr yr Eglwys a nifer mynychwyr y capeli? Peth rhwyddaf yn y byd, ao ar adegau plentynaidd, ydyw gdfyn owestiynau. Gan fod fy llith ynlmyned yn faith rhaid i mi dd'od i'r terfyn y. fan yma hyd yr wythnos nesaf; ond hoffem ddweyd ychydig o pethau gwasgaredig. Ni chlywais neb erioed o'r blaen ond "Edmygydd T.B." wedi blino ar gan y gwcw. Hoffem ei Alywed yn canu ei dwy sain "gwc-w" o Ionawr hyd Rhagfyr. Gwir nad oes miw- sig grand yn ei chan, fel yr eos, y fron- fraith, a'r aderyn- du. Pan y byddost 'eto yn enwi Esgob Ty Ddewi mewn newydd- iadur cyhoeddus, goddefa i mi dy hysbysu dy fod yn enwi person anrbydeddus-un nag wyt ti yn deilwng i ddattod carrau ei esgidiau.Os yw Myrddinfab" y "Cul o'r Culaf," fel y dywed y person urddasol yma, onid yw yn rhyfedd ao yn syndod iddo gael llythyr yr wythnos ddiweddaf oddi wrth un o bregethwyr mwyaf poblogaidd y Methodistiaid, bardd a lienor enwog, ac un o englynwyr goreu yng Nghymru.

Bellach, gallaf ddweyd fy mod wedi darllen llawer o'r Joarnal er ys blynyddoedcr, ac wedi profi adnewyddiad ysbryd trwy yr amryw- jaeth sydd ynddo—mewn newyddion tarjiw- iadol, nodion digrif, a goleuni ar wahanol bethau. Am hyny, gallaf ddweyd yn ddi- Letrus fod y "Carmarthen Journal wrth fy modd yn y ddwy iaith, sef Cymraeg Saesneg. Ond carwn, Mr. Gol., alw eich sylw yn neillduol at un gohebydd, sef Myrddinfab," yr hwn sydd yn gysson ao yn ddiwyd yn ysgrifenu i'r Journal o dan y penawd Clywedigion."

Food Order Prosecution BWLCHNEWYDD BUTCHER AND COUPONS. At Carmarthen Borough Police Court on Monday, Lewis Jones, butcher, of Bwlch- newydd, was summoned for (1), failing upon the sale of meat to Margaret Davies to de- tacr the proper number of coupons for the amount sold, contrary to the Meat Rationing Order, 1918, and the direction to general butchers issued therein; (2) Selling veal to Margaret Davies contrary to the Live Stock (Sales) Order; and J3) Failing to keep eacli record as were necessary to show whether or not he was complying with the provisions of the Meat Retailers Restriction Order. Anne Jones, his daughter, was summoned for aiding and abetting him. Margaret Davies, of Danyfford, New- church. was also summoned for obtaining meat without production of meat card. The macibtrates on the Bench were the Mayor (Aid. W. Evans), in the chair; Aid. John lie wis, Messrs. Thomas Davies, Daniel Lewis, Rees Davies. and D. H. Williams. Mr. H. Morgan Griffith,s deputised as magistrates' clerk for Mr. H. Brunei White, who is executive officer for Carmarthen Borough under the Ministry of Food. Mr. Thompson, of Swansea, prosMuted for the Ministry of Food, and Mr. J. W. Wallis- i, ,Jones defended Lewis Jones and his daugh- ter. Mr. Tbonpson, opening the ctse, said fiat on the 22nd June, Mr. Roddy, South Wales Divisional Inspector under tne Minis- by of Food, visited Lewis Jones' stall at Carmarthen Market in company with Mr. Ramsbottom, the chief clerk of the Borough Executive Officer. He kept observation, and saw Mrs. Margaret Davies in the stall being attended to by Miss Ann Jones. A piece of veal, value 5s. 3d., >vas sold to Mrs. Davies. Upon the completion of that sale no coupons was produced by Mrs. Davies, and 110 coupon was detai;npd i'v Mr Lewis Joneff. When spoken to abvjt the absence of the meat card and coupon, Mrs. Davies said, "I have not got my meat cad. I forgot it. I am very sorry," .ni Miss Jones then .said, ''I did not know I was doing wrong. Should I have taken meat coupons?" Upon Mrs. Davies beii-g asked again about che coupons, Miss donos re- plied, "I have got this woman's coupons at home with others, and I will cut, off the coupons when I get back." Later that day: the 'ii^pector visited the hout-e at Bwlchnewydd, and saw Mrs Jones, but failed to find any meat card belonging t(.. inirs. Davies. It was significant, shid Mr. Thompson, that when Mr Roddy called again at the farm some weeks afterwards, Mrs. Davies' coupons were there then., Mr. Thomipson referred to the regulation in the Meat Rationing Order, 1918, provding that "whenever a butcher seLls ahy meat lie roust detach the proper number of coupons for the amount sold, and pointed out that the purchaser must produce a meat card with the coupons, and the butcher must upon that sale. detach the coupons. The Inspector also asked Miss Jones how was she selling .the veal, anti she replied Is. 4d. per lb., but that it was sold as young beef. Deal- ing with the charge of not keeping proper records, he said Mr. Roddy failed to find records that complied with the. regulations. In conclusion, Mr. Thompson said he was directly instructed by the Divisional Food Commissioner to emphasise the gravity of (any breach of the Food Orders. What one felt wao that there was no citizen in the whole country who was not called upon to do his hit towards the successful prose- cution of the war, and it was a sacred duty upon each of them to observe these regula- tions wh!ch the exigencies and emergencies of the 'time made it neceSlsary for the Government to impose, and which were necessary in the national interests.. Evidence was given by Inspector Roddy bearing out Mr. Thompson's statement. fJ,e stated that he saw a number of other people being served with t by Miss Jones and customers giving up their coupons. Miss Jones told him Davies was registered with them, and when asked for the register of customers she said it was lat home. She later said Davies only came to pay her for the previous week's meat. Witness said he was shown a book at the farm on which the names of 24 customers were entered, but he failed to find the names of Margaret Davies. Cros's-examined--Neither of them. admit- ted that any meat had been sold OIL the 22nd June. Mr. Thomas Ramsbottom, chief clerk to the Executive Officer, gave corroborative evidence. Mr. Wallis-Jones, addressing the Bench, said his client pleaded guilty to the charge of failing- to keep records. People in the country, he said, were not used to keeping elaborate accounts, and were apparently unaware these were provided for the pur- pose of keeping the necessary records. He asked the Bench to deal leniently with them under the circumstances. Country butchers -were -in the habit of carryin'g on a good deal of their business almost from memory, and it was remarkable what a memory they had for transactions which took place as far back. as a month or* six weeks. His clients made a certain number of entries as a guide to them, but they were not of suoh a regular order'that any other ^person would be able to understand them. The two other charges resolved themselves into questions of fact. With regard to the coupons, the purchase of meat was made on the previous Saturday, and he submitted therefore no offence was committed on the 22nd Mrs. 'Davies did not buy her meat at the market. Whenever she ordered any, it was left for her at a shop in the district, and there was really no need for her to visit the stall. Dealing with the charge of eeFling veal, Mr. Wallis-Jones said evidence would be called that it was beef that was noid on the .stall. Mr. Roddy was not an expert witness on meat. The meat in ques- I tion was that of a young bull allocated to the Conwil butchers at a mart. He pro- duced the auctioneers' note. Mr. Thompson said in view of the ex- planation lie, would withdraw the summons for selling veal. Miss Ann Jones said Mrs. Davies did not receive any meat on June 22nd, and on that date ishe paid her for the previous week's meat. Mrs. Davies left her coupons at a shop where witness left the meat for her. She was not in the habit of keeping Mrs. Davies' coupons. Miss Jdne-j, Pentrepoeth, Crosyceiliog, de- posed that no meat was sold to Mrs. Davies at the stall, and that she only paid for the previous week's supply. Joseph Davies, husband of Margaret Davies, who was unable to attend owing to illness, said lie had no meat for his dinner on Si-indav the 23rd June. After a retirement, the Bench fined Lewis Jones E5 and allowed three guineas advo- cate's fee on the charge of failing to keep proper records, and Ann Jones £ 10 and three guinease advocate's fee for aiding and abetting in that offence. They dismissed the summons for failing to detach coupons, and also the summons against Margaret Davies.

Sir,—May I, through the medium of your paper, ask the exhibitors at the vegetable show on the 29th if they will give their exhibits, after the show, to the Vegetables for the Fleet'1' Committee, who will be most grateful for them. Admiral Sir David Beatty1 in his last letter to the branches of the society says that ".the vegetables sent are invaluable and I do not know what the men of the Royal Navy would do without them." Here, then, is an opportunity for all admirers of our gallant' NaVy, to do.a little to help these men, who by their un- wearying watch and ward in the North Eck, are enabling us to hold this show here. I shall be delighted to receive any gifts at our stall in the market on the day of the show, and they will be packed and sent off at once to the North Sea Fleet. EBXEST COLLSEB, Hon.
