Yn llanw y gadair yn anrhyd- eddus oedd y boneddwr caredig, Thomas Lewis, Ysw., Brynglas, Uchel Sirydd sir* Gaerfyrddin, gan vr hwn y cafwyd aneroh- j iad tra ragorol ar ddyben ac amcan y <;wrdd. Arweiniwyd yn ei ddull deheuig arferol gan y Parch. D. Curwen Davies, a chafwyd anerohiadau gwresog gan y Parchn. Hugh Evans, Sittim; Isaao Davies, Nantgaredig; E. Lee Hamer; Llanegwad, a Mr. H.

Yna cyflwynwyd i arwr y owrdd god yn cynwys JE8 10s. mewn nodau wedi eu harwyddo gan yr adnabyddus John Bradbury, a diolchodd y milwr ieuano yn wresog am yr arwydd svlweddol o'u paroh mawr toag atto. Cafwyd cyfarfod amrywiol o ganu, adrodd, &c., a chwareuwyd yr offeryn yn fedrus dros ben gan yr organ- yddes, Miss Thomas, y Twyn. Wedi y diolohiadau arferol, ymadawodd pawb" wrth eu bodd. MARWOLAETH. Rhaid yV dywedyd heddyw am ein cyfaill hoff, Mr. Simon Thomas. Alltygoleu, Llan- egwad, Efe a fu farw ar foreu ei ben blwydd pan wedi oyrhaedd ei 80 mlwydd oed. Carodd ef yn iach i'r frodir hon, wedi dioddef cryn dipyn o gyatudd a nychdod, ond a ddioddefwyd ganddo yn dawel ac amynedd- gar, yr hyn oedd yn nodweddion amlwg yn ei fywyd. Dy(Jd Mawrth daeth tyrfaoedd ynghyd i dalu y gymwynas olaf i'w weddill- lon marwol. Yr oedd modur gerbydau o bob rhan o'r wlad. Gwelsom yn mysg y dyrfa Mr. a Mrs. Davies, Glynaber, Twyn, Garnant, a Mr. Edgar Rees, y Raven, or- ganydd Eglwys Crist, Garnant, a Uu o wyn- ebau oedd yn ein lloni wrth ddyfod i gyff- yrddiad a hwynt. Yn y ty darllenwyd rhonau pwrpasol o'"r ewyllys fawr, ac off- rymwyd gweddi daer, doddedig gan y Parch. D.

Bydd genym ych- waneg am y gwroniaid hyn yn y dyfodol agos. Teilwng ydynt. EBENEZER GRIFFITHS, CADFAN, LLANGATHEN. Cymeriad adnabyddus iawn yn y plwyf uchod oedd ein cyfaill Mr. Griffiths. Yma y ganwyd ef troa bedwar ugain mlynedd yn ol, a bu fyw yr oes hirfaith hon heb fod yn faen-tramgwydd nac yn graig rhwystr i neb pwy bynag. Llawer gwaith y buom yn ei gwmni, ac ni welsom ef erioed pan yn ei lechvd cynnefin, yn colli ei gyweirnod, y lion, y llawen, digrif, a'r oellweirgar oedd ei arwyddair et bob amser. Diano ar ffo oedd y pruddglwyf bob amser, pan fuasai efe yn ei hwyl. Ond efe ni ohawn mwy. Daear- wyd ei ran farwol yn Llangathen dydd Iau diweddaf, pryd y daeth torf fawr yn nghyd. Gweinyddwyd yn y ty gan y Parchn. D. Williamfl, Llandeilo, a W. H. Harries, Pen- yrheol, ac yn y Llan ac wrth y bedd gan y Parch. J. A. Williams, ficer. Chwareuwyd yr organ fawr gan yr organyddes, Mis? Williams, a chafwyd yr hynt-daith farwol cyn ymadael.

Clywedigion "Myrddinfab" Clywaifi prydnawn ddyd4 Sadwrn nad oedd owns o fenyn ar werth ym marchnad Caer- fyrddin ar y dydd hwnw. Cyn y rhyfel yr oedd yno filoedd o fasgedi menyn. "0," meddai rhyw ffermwr, nid oes borfa yn tyfu o herwydd swn a dwndwr y magnelau yn Ffrainc, a lleoedd ereill; bod y fuwch wedi attal rhoddi llaeth." Hm! Lol botes. Ond diolch, y mae yng Nghaerfyrddin fas- nachwr ncu ddau yn gofalu bod gwraig y gweithiwr yn cael ychydig bach o fenyn am yr wythnos. Credaf yn gydwybodol y bydd rhyw Un yn cospi v bodau celyd, di- egwyddor, a'r elwyr afresymol (unreasonable profiteers) sydd yn ein gwlad y dyddiau hyn. Yr wyf wedi clywed yn ddistaw bach bod gwragedd arianol y crocts' yn rhoddi tri swllt y pwys am eu hymenyn. Look out, os daw Myrddinfab o hyd i'r bodau yma. Clywais pa ddydd fod cylchgrawii misol plwyf St. David's, Gaerfyrddin, o dan olyg- iaeth y Ficer newydd (y Parch. B. Davies, M.A.) newydd dd'od allan o'r Wasg ("Jour nal," Caerfyrddin), ac yn ei crthygl ar- weiniol, neu ei Lythyr at y Plwyfolion," ysgrifena fel y canlyn:—" Fy anwyl Blwyf- olion,-Nid heb ryw amheuon y derbyniais gynnyg yr Esgob i gymmeryd gofal y plwyf pwysig hwn. Gwyddwn am y gwaith da a gyflawnwyd yma gan y tri Ficer blaenorol, a theimlwn nad oedd yn bethf hawdd i fod yn olvnydd iddynt. Cefais fy nghefnogi yn fawr trwy fy rhagflaenydd, y Parch. Grif- fith Thomas, gwaith da yr hwn yn y plwyf ni anghofir yn fuan. Siaradodd gyda'r gwrea- ogrwydd mwyaf am deyrngarwch pobl yr Eglwys, a sicrhaodd i mi y gallaswn ymddi- bynu ar eu cefnogaeth galonog hollol a'u cydweithrediad. Profais yn barod fod hyn yn wirionedd. Er fy mod jrma ond tair wythnos, cefais fod pawb yn awyddus i wneyd yr hyn a allent dros yr Eglwys yn y plwyf. Y mae llawer i'w wneyd yn ystod yr ychydig (flynyddoedd nesaf. Yn y lie cyntaf bydd eisieu ymdrech egniol i glirio ymaith y dyledion ar yr amryw adeiladau yn y plwyf. Er fod y dyledion hyn yn fawr, gwnaethpwyd defnydd da o'r arian. Er mai prif waith yr offeiriad plwyfol ydyw dwyn dynion at Grist, 6to gogyfer a'r gwaith hwn y mae Eghvydi ao adeiladau ereill yn ofynol, a dylem ymdrechu i wneuthur ein Heglwysi, y rhai a adeiladwyd er anrhydedd a gogon- lant Duw mor hardd ao mor deilwng o hono Ef ag ydyw yn ein gallu i wneyd. Gan hyny, rhyw amser, y mae yn ofynol mgym- meryd a chwblhau adnewyddiad Eglwys Crist. (Christ Churchl a gorpheniad Ystafell yr Eglwys (Church Room). Y mae hefyd bethau ereill i'w gwneuthur, ac yr wyf yn hyderus na fydd unrhyw appel atoch a ddichon gael ei wneyd genyf ddim yn ofer. Edrychaf yn mlaen am lawer o flynyddoedd o waith yn eich plith. Gobeithiaf a gweddiaf o ddifrif y bydd, gyda'ch cydweithrediad chwi, y gwaith hwn yn dwyn ffrwyth er cynnydd i Deyrnas Dduw. Ni fydd y gwaith hwn yn hawdd ao nis gellir ei gyflawni ond trwy osod ein hyder ar Dduw, ao ymostwng i'w ewyllye Ef, gan gofio yn wastad, yng ngeiriau Sant Paul, Cydweithwyr Duw ydym ni.' ClyNvals canol ddydd dydd Sul fod y final touch (fel y dywedwyd wrthyf) o'r Cyfarfod Diolchgarwch am y Cynhauaf yn Eglwys Sant loan, Heol Prior, Caerfyrddift, pa rai a gynhaliwyd mor llwvddiannus ddydd Mer cher a dydd Iau diweddaf, i fod yno y noson I yma, ac fel plant y crowd," aeth Myr- ddinfab" yno. Yr oedd yr Eglwys wedi fi haddurno yn dda dros ben, yr Eglwys yn orlawn, y canu vn nefolaidd. dan arweiniad Mr. Watts, a'r pregethwr oedd yr enwog a'r poblogaidd Ficer Plwyf Sant Pedr (y Parch. Parry Gsiffiths, M.A.). Testyn Mr. Griffiths ar y noson yma ydoedd, LIafur- iwoh nid am y bwyd a dderfydd, eithr am y bwyd a bery i fywyd tragwyddol"" (Sant loan vi. 27). Yr oedd bwyd yn y bregeth, a chafodd "Myrddinfab" foddlonrwydd mawr. Yn ystod y gwasanaeth, canodd y cor anthem, "Cenwch Gan o Fawl," ac nid oes eisieu paentio y lili. Yr oeddwn wrth fy modd wrth glywed y Ficer yn myn'd trwy'r Gwasanaeth-yn bwyllog, ao yn cadw y comma, y semi-colon, y cplon, a'r full stops yn eu lleoedd pnodol. Nid wyf yn hoffi Derby Races yn myned trwy Was- anaeth yr Eglwys. Yr y'm ni fel Eglwyswyr yn gosod mwy o bwys ar Wasanaeth yr Eglwys na'r bregeth. Nid felly gan y Sectau. Yr wyf am sylwi ar yr uchod, am fy mod, yn fy nheithiau ar y Sabbath, yn clywed offeiriaid yu myned trwy hen Was- anaeth anwyl yr Eglwys, fel gwyr y llaeth am banner awr wedi saith o'r gloch yng Nghaerfyrddin, i ddal tren chwarter wedi wyth." Da chwi, ficeriaid a churad- iaid Hen Eglwys y Cymry, peicnwch trot- tiafi" trwy r Gwasanaeth. Gofalwch am y commas, &c.

Y Diweddar CarpI. J. D. Thomas, Caerfyrddyn I (Gan ddau Hen Gyfaill). Blin genym yr wythnoe hon i gofnodi marwolaeth, ar faes y frwydr yn Ffrainc, Corpl. J. E. Thomas, mab i Mr. Samuel Thomas, Heol-y-Prior, Caerfyrddin. Yr oedd yr ymadawedig wedi bod yn Ffraino er's misoedd lawer, ac yn mis Awat diw- eddaf yr oedd wedi d'od adref am beth amser ar leave" o'r trenches." Yr oedd Jack," fel yr oedd yn cael ei adwaen gan luaws, yn oael ei hoffi yn fawr gan ei gyf- eillion, ao yr oedd bob amser a gwen ar ei wyneb i bawb a ddelo i gyffyrddiad ag ef. Yn eglwys y Priordy, pa gapel yr oedd yr ymadawedig yn mynychu er pan yn blentyn, yr oedd yn aplod ffyddlon er'e blynyddau, a "bydd ei golled yn fawr i'r achos yn y lie; yn y cor bydd y sedd yn wag iawn heb ei bresenoldob. Hefyd yn yr Ysgol Sul yr oedd y plant i gyd yn ei garu, ao yn hoff iawn o'i gael fel athraw arnynt. Yr oedd yn cymeryd dyddordeb mawr mewn oanu, a llawer gwaith bu ef (gyda dau o'i hen gyf- eillion goreu, pa rai sydd yn galaru ar ol un oedd yn'hoff iawn ganddyht) yn canu fel aelod o gor meibion (dan arweiniad Mr. W. Morris) ar y rhan-gan, Ymlaen, ymlaen, chwi filwyr Duw." A gellir dweyd yn sior hefyd am yr ymadawedig ei fod yn wir filwr i Dduw, ac ei fod ferbyn hyn Yn gwiago'r hyfryd goron draw yn nheyrnas nef." Siaradwyd yn deimladwy iawn am y di- weddar filwr leuano yn y, capel uchod nos Sul diweddaf gan rai o'r blaenoriaid. Y tro diweddaf y bu yr ymadawedig yn y capel, le ganwyd emyn lawer gwaith ar ei gais, fel gallai ef i'w chanu wedi myn'd yn ol i Ffrainc gyda'r boys." Ychydig iawn yr oedd ef a r gynulleidfa yn meddwl mai dyma y tro diweddaf y byddai yn canu yn yr hen gapel oedd yn anwyl iddo. Cynulleidfa tor- calonus oedd yn canu yr emyn y tro hwn (ar gals Mr. Dunn Williams), fel arwydd o baroh l'r ymadawedig. Hefyd chwareuwyd y "Dead March" ar yr organ yn effeithiol iawn. Cyn ymuno a'r fyddin yr cedd Corpl. Thomas yn ngwasanaeth Wyman and Sons fel manager yn y bookstall yn ngorsaf Caer- fyrddin. Bydded i'r tad ao aelodau ereill y teulu i barhau, fel yn y dyddiau gynt, i edrych am nerth tuag at Brenin y bren- hinoedd, pa un sydd yr un ddoe, heddyw, ao yn dragywydd.—Heddwch i'w lwch. Colli ben wynebau Anwyl yn y glyn, Daw y dydd yn oleu Eto wedi hyn." J. T., W. E.

GWERNOGLE. Nos Lun, Medi 32ain, cynhaliwyd cyfarfod yn ysgoldy y Cynghor er croesavyu Private David Evans, mab Mr. a- Mre. Evans, Gwas- tadedd, ar ei ymweliad a chartref wedi bod allan yn Ffraingo am fisoedd. Yr oedd wedi gweled oyfnodau tywyll ac amserau celyd, ond wedi dyfod allan o honynt yn iach ac yn hollol ddianaf, ac yn edrych yn ardderchog. Llywyddwyd y cyfarfod gan Mr. Sam Davies, Brynllywelyn. Wedi myned trwy ran o'r rhaglen, casglwyd y swm o Lll Ps. yn anrheg i'r arwr. Hefyr yr oedd yno ddau filwr arall yn bresenol sef Private Thomas, Penpistyll, Brechfa, a Private Davies, Rhyd- wen, Pencader; a chasglwyd iddynt hwythau y swm o J61 16s., a diolchodd pob un o'r milwyr am danynt yn gvnhes. Cymerwyd rhan yn y cyfarfod gan fluaws o gantorion ac adroddwyr, rhy lluosog i'w henwi yma gan bod y gofod mor brin.

A communication from the Ministry of Food ha3 been received by the secretary of the Carmarthenshire Farmers' Union stating that they had no objeotion to sheep- being weighed alive as heretofore to be taken as a guide to the gaders in estimating the dead weight of the sheep.

Military Notes and Queries [By Our Military Expert.] REPLIES TO CORRESPONDBNTS. Mrs. H.—Separation allowance is payable for a fortnight after the date of your hus band's discharge, and the date of discharge is the date mentioned on his Protection Certificate (Army Form W 32(1). An X Man.—Sorry, but you must be "whole time engaged in work of national importance to benefit from discharged sol- dier's exemption concession. Freedom.—You are entirely free of furtnet liability to military service, and, that being so, there is no tie at all on you &ow in respect of remaining at your present emf 'oy ment. Cautious.—You should carefully read the attestation form which you will be required to sign when you join up voluntarily before the age of 18. You could be enlisted ag a "boy for even 12 years. Puzzled.—You appear, from what you say, to be in receipt of first-class profioiency pay, and therefore your total pay should now be Is. • lid. per day—but only Is. lOd. before June last. S. J.-Sorry, but it is not possible for me to arrange an interview with you. But I shall be glad to answer any questions you may submit in a letter. There is no charge at all made for the answering of questions. W. E.—If made liable for service only by virtue of the last Act you would have right to apply for exemption within seven days after examination and grading. "@iv."—I am of opinion that an applica- tion for your release from the Colours would be favourably entertained if made to the Ministry of National Service, London, S.W., by. your previous employers. Protection.—Personally, I think the ohange of occupation you propose might involve the loss of your protection certifi- cate. At any rate you-would not be strictly entitled to protection on account of that occupation—because of not having entered it before January 1st, 1918. T. S.—You are under a wrong impression. The substantive rank of a lance-sergeant is only that of a corporal. A corporal is not promoted" lance-sergeant; he is only "ap- pointed" suoh. In view of this, you will understand that in respect of your depen- dent's separation allowance you are in the same position as a corporal. R.O.—(1) The. pay of a second-lieutenant is 10s. 6d. a day. (2) If the child's allowance of £2 per month is not being paid the agents (banker) of the officer's regiment should be oommunicated with. I cannot give you their name and address as you do not mention the regiment. Probably, however, they are Messrs. Cox and Co., Charing Cross, Lbndon. R.H.—As the separated husband did not contribute to the wife's support, she cannot, I regret to inform you, secure any widow's pension now he has been killed. But as she has two children, allowances of 6a. 8d. and 5a. (total lis. 6d.) can be obtained, for them up to the age of 16. Application should, In the circumstanoes, be made through the Local War Pensions Committee. That com- mittee may also recommend the widow for an allowance from the Special Grants Com- mittee of the Ministry of Pensions. M.W.—For the death ,certificate of your son unfortunately killed in action, you should write to the Secretary, War Office, Imperial Institute, Bouth. Kensington, Lon- don, S.W. Kindly accept my since rest sym- pathy in your bereavement. H.B.—You are not liable for further mili- tary service, and you are under no obliga- tion to take up work of national importance. The Ministry of National Service Form R41 has obviously been sent you in mistake. You should return it, quoting the particulars on your discharge certificate. Campaign Pension.-Your old friend who is in receipt of a opeoial campaign pension is, I am pleased to inform him through 'you, eligible for an increase of 2s. 6d. per week as from May 1st last. If he lma, as you say, been officially infonned to the oontrary, I should be glad if you would send me that official letter, and I will then take the matter lip with the proper authorities.

RHEUMATISM KIDNEY TROUBLE Rheumatism is due to urio acid crystals in the joint and muscles, the result of ex- cessive uric acid in the system that the mdneys failed to remove as nature in- tended, which is also the cause of baokache, lumbago, sciatica, gout, urinary trouble, stone, gravel, dropsy. Eertora Tablets, a thoroughly harmless spedfic based on modern medicinal scienoe are the success- ful treatment, and have cured numberless obstinate cases after the failure of all other tried remedies, which acoounts for, their superseding out-of-date medicines sold at a price beyond all but the wealthy.
