A letter having been received with regard to .1. 0 coal supplied to the various schools of the county, Col. Morris sa,d that complaints about the coal had been received all round in his part of the country. It was very inferior coal-tho cheapest coal on earth (laughter). They could not heat the rooms. SCHOOL ATTENDANCE OFFICER'S RESIGNA- TION. A letter was received irom Mr. Wm. James. Nan.- garedig, the school attendance officer for the Llandilo Bridge division, intimating hi3 desire to terminite his engagement to the Committee on the ,), t December, and thanking the Committee for. PO help they had given him during his term of office. The consideration of the letter wae deferred until the next meeting. THE STEPNEY BEQUEST. A letter was received from the solicitors of 11 late Sir A. C. Stepney, Bart., The Dell, Llanelly, asking to whom the sum of £100, bequeathed to tie Grammar chool, Carmarthen, under the terms of Sir Arthur Stepney's will, should be paid. The Clerk said iiiiit he had repl-ed that the money should be paid to the Governors of the school. LLANDOVERY MIXED SCHOOL. A letter was read from the Llandovery Board of Guardians with reference to a petition which was 'received against the resolution of the Committee to extend the Girls' Intermediate School, Llandovery, and convert it into a mixed school. Mr. Mervyn Peel proposed that the letter be old on the table. The extension of the school would bo of great benefit to the Llandovery district. i"e hoped the Committee would proceed with the natter, as the pians had already been passed. Mr. David Davies (Rhyblid) said that pub ic opinion throughout the Union was against the -scheme. They, as ratepayers, and several prominent educationalists were strongiy against it. No cue. knew the the school was to be mitd43 a mixed one. He moved that they defer the work. The Chairman said that he did not think they could go back now. The scheme had been wid-IY advertised, and they had decided upon it. The -present action was rather belated. The motion should have come on when the County Council w iconsidering the scheme. Mr. David Davies said that no one dreamt that rthcy were going to extend the school and spend another £ 3,000 after they had already spent £ 5,0CQ on a Council school at Llandovery. It -vas ihougjt that the managers had plenty of accommodation. Mr. Peel said that Mr. J. R. James was strongly in favour of extending the school to get more accom- modation. They all knew what an interest Mr. James took in it. and how he was in touch with tho feelings of the people of the district. He was very .anxious to get the scheme through, and Mr. Peel would be sorry to see it fall through now. It would only increase the rates by barely 3d. in the h. Mr. David Davies questioned this statement. In answer to CoL Morris, the Clerk said that no objection had been received to the scheme when it was approved by the County Council. They were I now advertising for tenders. Mr. Peel's motion to go on with the work was agreed to. AGRICULTURAL, TEACHERS. The Cardiganshire Education Committee wrote urging that public funds should be expended to a further extent in the promotion of the teaching of agriculture in the college schools of the Princi- pality. THE BORDER DISPUTE. A report of a sub-committee who had inquired into the question of sites for tho erection of new schools at Furnace and Halfway in connection with tho Llaneliy border dispute, wits referred to a special meetin" of the County Council to 00 held to-morrow (Saturday). MEDICAL INSPECTOR S CRITICISM. The Board of Education submitted a report rela- tive to a conference their inspector (Dr. Newman) had with members of the committee on the medical inspection of school-children. The Board said they were satisfied that more efficient provision would be made if a whole-time schools medical officer were appointed, with such assistance as might provo to be necry, and that the expenditure under such a scheme would, in all probability, not exceed that involved in the present system. The passing of the Housing and Town Planning Act, however, rendered arly reorganisation of the public medical services of the arta. necessary. and the Board, therefore, recog- nised that the authority were not in a position to deal separately with the question of schools inspec- tion. On the understanding that the arrangements would be reconsidered in connection with the ap- pointment of a county medical officer of health, the Hoard were prepared to approve, for the code year now current, the present arrangements, with certain modifications. The Clerk said that he had replied that the Committee would carry out these additional require- ments. The Rev. J. H. Recs understood that, medical offi- cers did not visit schools tor carrying out examina- tions without first giving due notice. It that, was so he thought that the object in view was not curried out. In his opinion that rule should be altered be- cause there were a good many negioctful parents who, if they had notice of the doctor'* visit, would make their" childreu elt-azi that morning without troubling about. them another morning. The Board's suggestions viere agreed by the Com- mittee. GARDENING CLARES. Grants of JS5 each were made to 10 schools for the pumose of forming classes in gardening. APPOINTMENTS OF TEACHERS.

----_.------_.----LLANDUVERY…
LLANDUVERY NOTES The Rev. T. E. Thomas, D.D., known throughout the country as tho seer of BaUygia-, has now re- moved from his oid home and taken up his residence at The Manse, Queen-street. Llandovery. We under- stand that advancing years and a desire to be in closer touch w i: n his congregation ied to the doctor to take this step. At the annual meet.ng of the Minor Counties Cricket Association he|<i on Tuesday at. tne pavilion at Lords, Alderman l P. Leu is, Liandiivg&t, Llan- dovery, and Hughes-Morgan, who is also a native of tho di-trio, ',e re the representative^ for Carmarthenshire. The chief topic of conversation at Llandovery of late has been the proposed Recreation Ground. Everybody is agr«?ed on the need for such an open space. The important, points arc the securing of the necessary funds end acquisition of a suitable site. The promoters of the movement have, however, every confidence that they will overcome both diffi- culties. Judging what the town has accomplished in the pain without rn-ucb blowing of trurnpeb, the optimism in this ca-c seems to be jusMied.

I The annual "speech day" at St. David's (allege School, which ranks as one of the best schools in tho Principality, is an event which is looked forward to with pleasure by the inhabitants of Lampeter anu district, and the meeting held on Tuesday aiter- noon was well-attended, the spacious hall being full ot an enthusiastic audience.

"The past year is a year which marks two records so far as my connection with tho school is con- cerned. In The hrst place, the number of pupds reached i's highest mark, and, which is poita.it, the successes gamed by tne boys have been more numerous and more satisfactory than those gained during any year since my adveilt III lbtli. During the year, "that is the season laud-lbO^, the national game was played wi.h erithu-.asrn vu. m no small degree to the. energy of Mi. «U!iams So ambuious were the. members of the team that one is inclined to think that at times they unuei- took to do more than they ought. However, it was a good ieam, and the Cillege XV. this sea-f,)n is reapin- tne benefit of the training given at the Sol: Cricket was played with »»>^ate sticces.s uniortuiuueiy the boys have no good wickct nracdse on until the College goes down a fact which severely handicaps our progress at cricket. The entnumasL wuh which the boys took up physical dnll some years ago shov* no sign of abatement, nor is there any hkeldu>m so ong as t is in the hands <u Sergeant-Major iUkh\ m. ihe exhibition given at our annual sports was th. f< a f.irc of the nrofframme. This important, func ion took place on Empire Day, and before pr<>ceeaing 1 should like to take this opportunity ot thanking all those from Lampeter and the district who, year bv vear, so generously subscribe to our spor s u'| Turning to another-a more serious side of the hie of the school—I am glad to be able to ^at the Sunday evening services continue to hold a prominent place in the hearts of the boys. Her* 1 should like to thank those good friends wbol.av given addresses, and a special word ot thanks to one of my colleagues who works so hard at practice every Saturday to keep up the high standard of the singing. The other side of the life of the -;ch(x,l- the intellectual-is th<* one that » ever before h; public eve, and with most people the success of the school is measured by the results in competitive and other examinations. In. this department, the curriculum has been modified, and much more atten- tion is given to Welsh.. Speaking of this subject, the Inspector said that 'the results were- among the most striking in the whole life of the school. Throughout the vear the work has been. quiet and consistent. I will leave you to judge from what vou will hear whether it has been successful. 1 thp following successes to report:- Godfrey Evans, 2nd Class Honours Mathematical Moderations at Oxford. W. T.

The school was of immense value to 11 e town and College, and this year was a record m its history in the number of boys. They wore d to find that su-h good progress was bei'i.r rude. Tho fact that boys were sent to the school aii parfa of Wales proved that the education lmna,•<! there was thorough and good .and the school ;nd a firm hold Oil the public (cheersi. He then re- ferred to some changes which were contemplated r, regard to the school by the Board of Education. :1 ..1 he trusted that whatever changes were made tre- public would continue to patronize the school III future as they had done in the past. He urged tne boys to aim at a- high standard, and alluded wth pride to the fact that out of 140 students at present in St. David's College- 58 had -been educated at tho College School. Parents and boys should co-ojjora.te with the Headmaster, and be guided by him l*1- garding when to leave school (applause). Mr. Harford proposed a vote f thanks to Mrs. for her kindness in distributing the prizes, and gave some sound and practical advice to the bovs. Tile vote having been seconded by Dn Walke1-, was unanimously passed, and Mrs. Jebh briefly thanked them for their good feeling. A -ei- plea- santo meeting then brought to a close.
----------I PEPS FOR FAMILY…
I PEPS FOR FAMILY USE PARENT S BRONCHITIS AND CHILDREN'S WEAK CHESTS lTHED. A very important, point to remember about Pops, the great breaihe-ablo remedy for throat and chest ailments, is that they are, a perfectly safe medicine for old and young, robust and invalids. Hence the wise, mother always kef'ps a box. of thes-e ih-er- wrapped tablets handy in the house when coughs, colds, and sore throats arc rife. Pops contain none of the opium or other harmful drugs to lie found iti cough mixtures; and besides. Pops are exceprionaliy successful in cutting short worse chest, ailments if used at once. Mrs. A. Gates, SealieUl Cottage, Rustington. nr. Worthing, Sussex, writes:—For a month at a lime 1 had to stay iti bed with bronchitis, suffering from severe coughing (its, so^e throat, and pains across niv chest. My breath came in gasps, and my "OlC often left m.. altogether. Six years of tin's miserable existence without any benefit from doctors' treat- ment ntado me think there was no relief from bronchitis. But Peps made me change my opinion. "1 was suffering from a particularly bad attack when I first heard of Pep? two winters ago. I was wailing for someone to fetch the doctor when a friend came in with a few Peps. I took these and felt HO relieved that when tho messenger carne. I sent him not for the doctor but for a, box of Pops. I marvelled at the relief Pens brought me, not. only to my throat and chest, but. from the spasms of cou<rhing as well, f rapidly picked up as I regularly took Peps. My husband and children wee de- lighted to notice that I scarcely coughed at all. "Finding the little tablets so good for my severe case I gave a doge to tho children when they caught cold during a spell of bad weather. For them also Peps proved splendid. AH six of us in our family now think very highly^ of Peps. I have ccrtainly never heard of anything to equal Peps for bron- 1 chitis."
CARMARTHEN TOWN COUNCIL
CARMARTHEN TOWN COUNCIL THE RE-ASSESSMENT. A monthly meeting of the Town Council was heltf at the Council Chamber in the Guildhall, Carmar- then, on Tuesday night-, when the Mayor (Alder- man Walter Lloyd) presided. There were also pre- sent Aldermen John Lewis, H. E. B. Richards, and Geo. Treharne; Councillors J. Crossman, oohn Mor- gan. A. J. Jones, W. Vincent Howell lhomas, William Thomas, Charles Sutcliffe, Geo. Morgan^ D. E. Williams, Walter Spurrell, J. B. Arthur, James Davies, L. D. Thomas, Oliver Jones, John Lloyd, and William Evans; together with the Town Clerk (Mr. James John), the surveyor (Mr. F. J. Finglah), the superintendent of polioe (Mr. T. Smith), rate collector (Mr. D. Evans), and the sani- tary inspector (Mr. J. Evans). NO LIABILITY. Tho Town Clerk said that he had received a letter from the late Mr. John Fancis, agent of the Glangwili Estate, claiming compensation for damage done to Mr. Lloyd Price's wagonette through collid- ing with the frame of the sun-blind at- tite ( Curiosity Shop, King-street. There was no fault attaching to the coachman, as in order to pass two milk-carts he had to keep close to the pavement, but on which the wheels of the vehicle never went. He (the Town Clerk) had replied acknowledging the receipt of the letter and repudiating lia,bility. He advised them the Council was not ha-ble. On the motion of Mr. Spurrell tho Town Clerk's action was approved of. THE RE-ASSESSMENT. Mr. John Saer, clerk of the Carmarthen Union Assessment Committee, wrote re the Council's letter of the 17th September relative to the assessment of the Union was laid before the committee on tho 3th inst., which was the first meeting held since tho re- ceipt of the letter, and the committee regretted to find the Town Council before giving the committee an opportunity of considering any representation to them to the subject, had addressed an appeal to the Local Government Board on the matter. Under those circumstances the committee had addressed its reply to the Local Government Board. Mr. James Davies—Was there a letter written from this Council to the Local Government Board. The Town Ckrk-I sent them a letter in accord- ance with the terms of the resolution moved by Alderman iticnards. Alderman Richards—It is perfectly plain to me that this letter is equivalent to a direct refusal to reply or entertain the resolution moved by this ■Council, and addressed to the Assessment Com- mittee. f think it is just as well that it should go to the ratepayers of this town that the Assessment Committee decline to entertain any correspondence with respect to the- assessment of the union. Mr. James Davies—Lender these circumstances is it well for us to nave the town re-assessed? us The Mayor—You can't stop it now. Tho Town Clerk—No, you have no power. VARIOUS. The question of providing a place for the deten- tion of children under 16 years of age in accordance witlr certain provisions of the Childrens Protection Act, which couio into force on the 1st January next, was referred to the Watch Committee with full power, the Town Clerk stating that in the county they were endeavouring to mako araiigements with married constables residing within the potty sessional areas. The recommendation of tho Publiv and General Works Committee that Mr. H. Graham King, char- tered accountant, 17 and 18, Telegraph-street, Moor- gate-street. London, E.C., be appointed for one year auditor of the several accounts of the borough at a salary not exceeding E30. including all ex- penses, was unanimously adopted on tho motion of Mr. John Lewis, seconded by Mr. James Davies. v PUBLIC LIGHTING. Alderman Richards moved that the question of the public lighting of the town be referred to tho Public Works Committee as it requierd very careful consideration. Tho Mayor—Does any gentleman not connected with the electric light company second that (laugh- ter). Mr. Oliver Jones—Or gas (renewed laughter). The Mayor—Yes. We have enough of that too (more laughter). Mr. Vincent Tlioma.We have had plenty of gas for a long time (laughter). Mr. Spurrell—Is tho Public Works Committeo to have full power? ThoMavor—They will have to report to his Conn cil? Mr. James Davies—May I ask if we shall rcqui'^e any gas after the 1st August next? The Mayor—Yoti have no right to speak, Mr. Davies. You are a director of the Gas Company (•laughter). (1, Mr. Davies—You see we don't wont to buy more coa-I than we shall use. I'll sit down now (renewed Iauif liter). COUNTRY ROADS. The Surveyor in his report stated that the three reservoirs were now full. Tho roads generally were in a fair condition, and roadmen were at, present en- gaged in cleaning country roads and ditches. Mr. Vincent Thomas—Have you been down to Maesyprior road? The Surveyor—Yes, and all that can be done now is to clear the ditches alongside the road. Some road repairs m-ill have to be done later on. Mr. J. Crossman asked if the requirements of the gentlemen who complained about the Cwmmau-road had been met.. The Surveyor said that. lie met Mr. Alfred Thomas. Maesyprior, and others, on the road. and if they carried out all the repairs the farmers de- sired, 'it would be a very heavy job. He pointed that out. to them, and he thought they would be satisfied with what he (the Surveyor) would have done after Christmas. The meeting then ended.

Morris called attention to the damp and draughty stato of the Khire Hall. Ho dreaded being there more than half an hour. He thought tho at- tention of the authorities should be called to it. It was decided that this should be done. TREASURER S ACCOUNT. The Treasurer's account showed an amount, due to him of LI,619 odd, and in hand £ 910. TENDERS. Tenders were accepted for the ensuing quarter from Mr. Wm. Stephens, meat; Mr. Rhydderch Davies, coal;, groceries, Mr. David Evans; fresh milk for 12rnonth, at. lgd. per pint, Mr. James, Trogib Arms; butter, Is. 2d., and cheese, 5lL, Mr. James Davies, Pentrecwn Farm. DATE OF NEXT MEETING. It was decided to hold the next meeting on tha Friday before Christmas (24th December).
Rural District Council
Rural District Council A meeting of the Rural District, Council was held. afterwards, when the Vice-Chairman. (Mr., T. Davies) presided. The Chairman (Mr. David Lowirf) lifts .sailed for Aiiierlea, where he will remain, for sometime fulfilling some musical engagements. ALLEGED ENCROACHMENT. The Clerk said he had written to the South Wales Brewery Co. with reference to the alleged encroach- ment itt, Ponybank, and ho had received a reply that instructions had ben given to have it. attended to. A reply bad also been received from Mr. Bishop (Lord Dynevor's agent) concerning Coronation-road, Garnant, in respect to which a complaint that it was getting flooded was made nt the previous mooting.' From the Clerk's remarks it appeared that tho con- tents of this epistle were somewhat ambiguous. RIIY D YMERDY. Col. Morris said lie should like to know what the Council were going to do at Rliydymerdy. Mr. W. Griffiths—The committee must bring their report here. Col. Morris—That is the very thing I want to d, at. I know what. the committee lias done. The por- tion of that ford which is under tho jurisdiction of this Council is the dangerous part just now. The Chairman remarked that other bodies wore interested as well as this Council, and questioned the necessity of their taking the initial move. The Surveyor said ho had nothing- further to say in this matter. It. had been before them on several ■occasions. It was impossible for anyone now to tho ford on the Council side. He thought the best thing would he to build a bridge oxer the diver- ted pan of the river, but that was a matter which they could not go into that day. Th. greater por- tion of tho river ran through this Council's district.. Mr. W. Griffiths—We can't do anything at this of the year. Mr. ]). Watkins suggested that die matter be de- ferred till tho Spring. Col. Morris —You are doing a great injustice to the, people in our parr of the country, and I must strongly protest against it. You adjourn it month after month and year after year.. Mr. Watk'fis' suggestion was agre'd to. [ WATERWORKS EXTENSION. The Clerk said that on the 18th of October tho Local Government Board sanctioned the borrowing of £4,209 for the extension of the Llaadebie watsr main. The Clerk asked if they were now ready to proceed in tho matter. It was decided that tenders be advertised for by uhat day month, and that at the same tirn tho loan bo applied for. The Clerk referred to the Gas Company's scheme at Garnant and the necessity for the Council taking tho necessary steps to insure that the pipe line for their drainage and the ground necessary for the sedimentation tanks was not interfered with. Messrs. Baker aDd Co., the Parliamentary agents for tho Company, who had previously acted in connec- tion with the other matters for this Council, had written enclosing copies of the plans which showed the land included in the bill as proposed to be ac- quired for the site of tho Gas Company. The agents agreed to tho inclusion of clauses which would have tho effect of preventing the gas pipes interfering with the Council's sewer. They sent a tracing from the ordnance map. Messrs. Baker and Co.. who were nromotinc- this Rili. had told him that they would be willing to see to the insertion of clauses protecting this Council's rights. Certain clauses protecting this Council's highways* etc., were inserted in the previous Bill. He (the Clerk) thought that perhaps it would be cheaper to leave the matter with Messrs. Baker & Co. than to engage agents independently themselves, as they had acted for this Council before. Mr. Dd. Davies was afraid they would pat their own terms. Mr. Wm. Williams—Wore, you satisfied with the clauses in tho other Bill? The C'lerk- Yes. Mr. Wm. WTilliams then suggested that tlwy be asked if they would include similar clauses in the present Bill. It would not cost nearly so much to employ them. If they would. not they could oppose their Bill. Col. Morris urged the absolute necessity of sewing that the space for tho Council's septic tanks was re- tained. The Clerk was understood to say there was ronui for both. Mr. Evan Jones said the site was right in tho centre of where their sewer would be. Col. Morris-I propose that the Clerk reply that we insifit. on the same clauses as those in the former Bill, and that as regards the siise of their works, that that will be a matter of future; consideration. Mr. W. Wili.ams. seconded. Col. Morris added that the agents were now simply giving the limits—the deviation, as they called it in Parliamentary Plans. It did not raaean that they would take all the land inserted now,, but they might at any future time. He proposed1 that the question of sue be referred to the Lighting Committee of Cwmamman for early report. On tho recommendation of the Medical Officer of Health (Dr. Lloyd), two schols were ordered to be temporarily closed, viz., one in Salami district, on account of an outbreak of scarletina, and another at CwTnivor, consequent on an outbreak of cMcken-pox. UNFIT WATER PIPES. There was. a discussion of some length, with refer- enco to some water pipes on account of their having become rusty in tho Glanaminan d.strict,- being quite unfit for carrying water for domestic purposes. Mr. Herbert said he had recommended at the Health (Dr. Lloyd), two schools were ordered to be dipped in solution,, but that was objected t(-), at the time on tho ground of expense, and here was tho result. Ho feared that they would have no alterna- tive but to re-raise them and do so. It was sug- gested that this be done, and that new pipes be laid down. Meanwhile, should these p;pes, as Mr. Herbert believed they would, prove good, they eould be used for future extensions. Although they were aid to be 20 years old, Mr. Herbert said they wero better than many pipes they could get to-day.. The proposition was carried. This was all the business of interest:
