He said: King ) Edward had been a great King, though he may not have been a great. man. In a word, the m:1.in significance of the reigns of Victoria and Edward is that they not only raised the ofiice of kingship in a constitutional country once more inro repute and honour, but made of it a vocation—a lifework-doing it to the best of their ability under the hand of God.

Mr. F. ) Gould, of the Moral Instruction League, -ivc a model lesson to a number of children, wiiijli was both fascinating and interesting. J") sketched on the board what be termed "¡ b golden ladder of respect," explaining the various steps in it, which included iho child's duty towards the animal, the child, iiie invalid, the servant, the foreigner, and people of dilr r- ent religions. The children gave their answers vefv promptly and intelligibly, and it wa$clear that they had derived a very clear conception of the standard of ethical duty as set forth by Mr. Gould After dismissing the pupils, Mr. Gould addressed the gathering briefly. lIe paid a compliment to the religious instrudion scheme in voue at thE, load elementary schools, and remarked that he had been a school teachcr and aJso a. inernbar of the Education Authority at Leicester. He went, round the schools at Leicester, anJ observed the Scripture lesson imparted there. He was convinced that the lesson was not the success it should 00. He believed in the systematic training of live child's mind, and inculcating into it the various virturs, such as respect, truth, justice, lcindnes.% The lessons should be positive, not nega- tive. He would never give a lesson on injustice or disrespœt, but on justice or respect. AiT-airi, the lessons should bo detached anJ complete, and not given in an incidental or fragmentary fashion. Although be used :.1. number of stories, he deprecated the idea. of entertaining the chil- dren. Stories should he used as a means to illustrate an idea.—-Mr. W. H" Williams opened the discussion by remarking that he feared tl,pw was 11 danger of overdoing this subject at Ih,! expnnse of others equally as important. —Mr A. W. Elliott, asked Mr. Gould whether he drew any distinction between morals and IJlann-ers? lie (the- speaker) had lived in a town which was noted for its morals but in which manners were at discount, and also in a town in which things were the reverse.—Mr. Gould replied that the teaching of manners did not come within the range of his subject.—Council- lor T. W Williams said the Glamorgan County Council were making grants of £1 rach to Edu- cation Societies for the purpose of obtaining lectures on edur-:i<onal subjects. If it was the wish of the A he r dare Society, he would make an application for the extension of this privilege to Aberdare.—On the'motion of Mr. Grif fiths, seconded by Miss George, Higher Stand- ard School, it was agreed to request, Mr. Wi! liams to apply for the grant. "Ruskin and Car ivie" were suggpsbed as subjects: also "A Com- parison of English and Continental Methods of Instruction."—Further comments wre mad" by Mr. W.

Young Liberals Active. I lJ.I.¡> jST COUNCIL FORMED FOR MERTHYR PARLIAMENTARY BOROUGH. The iapid growth of the League of Young Liberals in the Merthyr Borough has brought to the front the question of joint action among the various nches. A federation of the Leagus in Savth Wales has b?en carried out, and the provisional committee have already met, and drafted the constitution of the organ- isation, and now that the League of Young Liberals has secured an organ in th "Young Liberal, there is every prospect that in South Wales tho organisation will become a still greater power. It has been felt that in the Merthyr Borcurh, the various branches might well come into closer touch, and thus in many ways become more helpful to the cause of Lih- eralism. In the Aberdare Valley, an attempt has been made to organise inter-branch debates so as to bring the bra¡whe5 into clor touch with one another. After an interchange of opinion, it was fe;t that something more might he done, and. with this object in view, Mr. Aubrey Roberts (secretary of the Aberdare branch) convened a. conference of the various leagues iH the borough to meet at Abernant 011 Thursday ia. At present branches have been forced .n Merthyr, Dowlais, Merthyr Vale. Afc-erdaro, i/^manian, Mountain Ash, and Penrhiwoeilx^r; there is every prospect of other branches springing up in the immediate future in other of the Borough. On Thursday night, a very representative meeting was held at Bethesda Vestry, Aber- nant. Mr. Edgar Jones, M.P., presided, and very favourably of the idea of federating, crating that in unity was real strength, and there could be no unity without a unit. The unit in this cnee should be a compact body or executive- not too large to be unwieldy, but one which eouid be easily and, in a sense, cheaply summoned, where there was need of discussing a. subject, for the common good. Mr Jones was in exceedingly good form, and those who were present f-crc more than delighted with the way in which he expressed his views. Some discussion ensued as to the name of the new Federation, and it was ultimately decided that it should be known as "The Merthyr Bor- ough Council of the Leagues of Young Liber- als." This Councij. will consist of two members or representatives from each League, in addi- tion to its officers—chairman, secretary, and treasurer, who will be members "ipso facto". Mr. Edgar Jonos was elected president; the Chairman of the Executive being left in tne hands of the various meetings. Mr. Aubrey Roberts, of Aberdare. was elected secretary, and Mr. Percy Williams, "Tyst," Merthyr, treasurer. The question of joining the Merthyr Borough Liberal Federation was also discussed, but t1:e meeting was generally of the opinion that it would be best for the to con- tinue their educational propaganda work inde- pendent of tho

Cwmaman Whitsun Eisteddfod. EXCELLENT COMPETITIONS. Th. fourth annual Eisteddfod in a.id of the proposed Cottage Hosjvital for Cwmaman was held on Whit-Tuesday, in a spacious marquee. It was estimated that fully 4,000 people attend- ed during the day, and the usual profit of £100 is likely to be eclipsed. Appropriate bannors, such as "Swyn oenedl yw sain ca.nu," "Goreu art", arf dysg," and "Llwyddiant i Eisteddfod Cwmaman," wero hung in marquee, and flags, bunting, etc., also bedecked the village. The president (Mr. Edgar Jones, M.P.) was unable to a.t.1end owin to the- ceremonial at Westminster. His place was taken by Mr. T. L. Davies, who remarked that Cwmaman ought to b? proud of having raised one of its sons to becomo an M.P. He was glad they appreciated the various forms of culture promoted by that Eisteddfod, and hoped it would continue to be a flourishing institution.- Votes of condolence with the Royal Family, and with the relatives of the victims in the Whitehaven disaster were passed in silence.
