LLANDUDNO AND CONWAY WRINKLES. The Llandudno Amateurs captured a couple of points at Conway on Saturday. • • • They have made an exoellent start in the League campaign. # Thoir old rivals, Conway, fought well for the game. Referee Beech was the knight of the whistle. 1t • Johnnie Williams, the Amateurs' skipper, was in good form. # J. H. Jones and Harold Pearson defended well. Hobson was not up to his usual form between the stioks. » # Will Stone was good on the left, but he did not have many ohanoes. • • 'Alderson was an absentee, and his dashing sprints were sadly missed by the Amateurs. < < < Brookes-Evans displayed fine form, and his shot-s were very well judged. The Blues certainly deserved at least one point of the two out of the game with Llandudno on Saturday. • Their plucky fight deserves commendation, for the Amateurs were by far the stronger eleven. » Huphie Hughes did not seem to be very cer- tain in goal. He was probably nervous, that being his first game on the home ground, « « Tom Jones and O. Ellis both played a great game, and their defence was oertainly the mainstay of the Blues. The star of the game was Conway's new ac- quisition, Evan Owen. « < w w He tackled the visiting forwards in a very businesslike manner, and on several occasions the Llandudno citadel nearly came to grief through his potting. w w « w Lewis Hugh Roberts, the Conway skipper, gave one of his best on Saturday, and "bagged" one goal for the homesters. < # Hugh Parry made hisi first appearance this season on Saturday at centre-forward, hnd 900, counted for one goal. » « « Taking them on the whole, the Conway eleven played a good game. • « » The Blues have their first cup-tie next Satur- day. » The Llandudno Celts gave a benefit match to George Maokenzie on Wednesday, when they played against the Corinthians. < a George has been laid up with a serious illness, ifcnd has not yet quite recovered. • • • The Corinthians are considerably strengthened this year. They have entered the Junior League, tod also mean to have a try for the Duncan Cup ini9 year.

TENNIS. COVERED COURT TOURNAMENT AT LLANDUDNO. The eighteenth covered court lawn tennis tournament which commenced on Monday, at Craigside Hydro, Llandudno, will undoubtedly be the most interesting tournament of a long series. It has been placcd a fortnight later than last year, and the latter date seems to have suited the players better. The competition for the honour of Welsh covered court champion has become keener and has attracted a large number of first-class exponents of the game. In addition to the open events-the championship singles for ladies and gentlemen respectively and the open mixed doubles—there are various handicaps, and in these the entry is exceptionally large. The total entry is the biggest yet made in the tournaments, thent being Ij3 matched to get through. Among the better known gentlemen players are R. F- Doherty, G. A. Caridia (the present champion), T. M. Mavrogordato (champion two years ago), and A. L. Bentley; among the ladies are Miss A. N. O. Greene, Mias East lake Smith, Miss Pincknev, and Mrs Curtis Wliyte (the present holder of the challenge cup). A, feature of the afternoon's play was the protracted contest between Butler Lloyd ana Miss Butler Lloyd, and S. L. Fry and Miss Reeves in the mixed open doubles, the first set spinning out to 15 games to 13. The first mentioned playors won 15 3, 16 4.

Tihey did so on the under- standing that tilno defence paid Mr Lloyds foe and the expenses of two witneasea. ON THE SIDE Mr David Ellis, of the Salisbury Arms, Tromoirohiion, was summoned for a eimiilLair offence on Septeamber ititli. Mr Joseph IJbyd rcq)-r-eeentod tihe police. The defendant did not appear, and the con- stable said ihe left the summons with Mrs Ellis- The Magistrates' Clerk (Mr F. J. G unlin) said tihat tbart was gonertally considered good servioe but it was always Ni-oll to be on the safe eidle. and he wainted to know whether tlhe ojfnoor could aay tihat the summoais liad come to the <4OIOIK1 suit's knowlieclige- The Constable rapfied tihat the wifa said she would give it to her husband. There was a letter ostensibly from the de- fendant stating tihait he had been confined to hia bed for four months, and the Chairman sug- goated that tihat was an acknowledgement of service. Tlhe Clerk said it would be if they could ob- tain evidence to show it was in the handwriting of defendant. Mr Joseph LLoyd said the dofezvlant had also sent to him after he had been retained for the police. The Clerk asked if there was anyone in oourt who ooutd sweex to d-GfencLajut's ritiiig ? A man at the rear of the court was indicated as having a kno-wledge of dofendant's handwrit- ing, and he said t'hiat tlhough he had never seen defendant write, he was familiar with his hand- writing. To the best of his belief the writing in question was that of defendant's son- Uncfer the pircumstances the Bench adjourned tho oaso. giving instructions that the summons should be brought to defendant's knowledge. ALLEGED ASSAULT. Joseph R^yles, of St. Beuno's College, Tre- menxdhoon,, summoned Richard Owen Jones, a neighbouring farmer, for assault.—Complainant stated that on September 26tlh, defendant struck him, though he was doing notlhing wrong-.—De- fendant stated tihat complainant was always knocking about his farm- On the occasion in question he told him to clear off, but as lie did not do iso witness pushed' him. The caso was dismissed. AN OCCASIONAL LICENCE. An occasional licence for the Smithfield Cattle Market waa granted to Mr Roberts, of the Plough Inn. for October 10th and October 24tih.

There were several "side shows," such as a shooting junsle, baker's oven, post and parcel office, and Thorma, the Eastern Oraole. TUESDAY'S PROCEEDINGS. The Rev. D. J. Lewis, B.A., presided over the opening proceedings on Tuesday, and in intro- ducing Mr W. Jones, M.P., to the meeting re- ferred in complimentary terms to his oratorical powers. Mr William Jones, M.P., who was hea.rWy received, said that when travelling recently he met a. gentleman a.nd his family from tho Ar- gentine Republic who had been visiting Llan- dudno, and made the remark that Llandudno was so charming in its climate and its setting and in its ideal form that he likened it to Utopia. It wae therefore with delight tha.t he (Mr Jonee) oa.me to a. Utopian bazaar in that Utopian town (laughter and applause)- One thing he liked about the bazaar was the optimism and cheerfulness tha.t pervaded every- body present. He believed that they had been having a real harvest of sunshine, although there was a. cloud in the sky that day. However, when he thought of clouds he thought of the lines written by, not Elizabeth Barrett Brown- ing. as was commonly supposed, but by Ellen Thorneycroft Fowler, whom he had met in Lon- don in the house of her father:- The inner side of every cloud Is bright and shining, I therefore turn my clouds a.bout And always wear them inside out To show their lining. (Laughter and applause). He had seen many bazaars in Eastern places, where the idea of bazaars was firwt cradled and nurtured. An Oriental bazaar was just a meeting-place of all the people irrespective of oolour, creed, or politics. In the bazaar there was no barrier between class and class; it was a democracy of ideals. One might see a millionaire Patreeo sitting tailor-like in a little box of a shop with an Arab horte dealer from Arabia or a man from Afghanistan. Ho ww the Ameer of Afghanistan chatting with the lowest subjects of the King in Agra bazaar as though there was a bond of fellowship between them. He was perfectly certain there was Utopia in that (ap- plause). Looking over the programme of tha.t Utopian bazaar, he observed the lists of patrons, sub- scribers, and contributors, and he saw that they had succeeded in battering down tho barrier of sectarianism (applause). That, he thought, was Utopian in the real sense (applause). The bazaar was helpful as a gre-at means of social activity, working through social and Lav agencies. The great Catholic Church of the Middle Ages was full of Jay activity, and the people worked for the Church, applying their skill and craftsmanship, their genius and talent. In conclusion, the hon. member advo- oated the right use of games, music, and diver- sions, and contended that they should not be driven from the precints of the Church, where they would be under well-balanoed control (ap- p'ause). He hoped tha.t the Church of Shiloh would increase in good Christian fellowship and comradeship, and that the bazaar would help towards that ideal. A vote of thanks to Mr Jones was passed cn the propositioa of Mr Benjamin Wiilisuup. I )

r CORRESPONDENCE. INADEQUATE STAFFING OF SCHOOLS. A TEACHER'S VIEWS. (T.) ths Editor of tho "Pioneer.") -S C.-T,i,) large amount of spice which you do- voted :o the report of the meeting of the Den- bighshire Teasers' Association leads me to hope that you may find room for a few remarks re- specting the above subject, which were crowded cut for w;!iifc 0f time at the public meeting. It was intended that I shou'd deal with the subject a,,3 r,3 g ,ards small schools, while the seconder of the resolution should speak on large schools. May I deal with my subject now? Scattered througnout the length and breadth of England and Wales, in many a lonely village and hamlet "far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife," there are hundreds of small schools. Denbighshire alone has forty, with an average at- t,andance of less than seventy children. For most country children these small schools stand for all the school education they will ever get. To the farmer's and farm labourer's child its little school is as important as the larger one of the town i3 to the child of the shopkeeper or artisan, and a "true" imperialism will not neg- lect it, because it is "only a little one." Let it not bo forgotten that the importance of edu- cating the toilers of our land is a rapidly increas- ing necessity-, if tho future stability of our coun- try is to be assured. No one who observes the "signs of the times" will deny this. Are our country schools preparing the future men and women to wield their power wisely? From this point of view let U3 consider the question of staffing a country school. Ignore for a moment the regulations of the Board of Edu- cation, and lot us look at the question simply as citizens. Here is a school, say, of from thirty to forty children. How shall we divide up the pupils for teaching purposes? "Well," you will »ay.you must have a head teacher fully'capable of giving the elder ones a sound elementary edu- cation in the three r's, history, geography, draw- ing, music, Then you would naturally give the youngest children a separate teacher, able, patiently and pleasantly, to train their young minds. Thus you will have provided for children from, say, five years old to seven, and from ten t) thirteen." Would the most ignorant consider the staff complete? Would they not say at tnce, "Th:) teacher of ths youngest children could certainly spare no time to take on the middle group—children ranging from eight to ton years of age." It is equally evident that, if tho head teacher is to do much for the elder children just at the time when they are most oapable of benefiting by his efforts, and will soon be leaving school for ever, he must be able to devote most of his time to them. Then you must have a teacher for the middle group. It noods no expert knowledge of school matters, it needs nothing but ordinary common sense, to see that the fow-est possible number of teachers needed in such a school as I have mentioned, is three, if the work is to be done efficiently. You might increase tho number of children up to fifty or sixty without adding very materially to the difficulties of such a school. Now what is the Board of Education's scheme of stüffing- its minimum demand? In the Board of Educa- tion's (Welsh Department) Code of Regulations for Public Elementary Schools, we find :The school or department must have a sufficient and suitable staff." The head teacher counts for an average attendance of 50. For purposes of Ar- ticle 32b the head teacher counts for an average attendance of 40. According to Article 32b a special grant of £10 is allowed, where in a thinly peopled district a head teacher is provided for an average attendance of not more than forty. So you see, sir, the most favourable provisions of the Board of Education Regulations prac- tically say that one teacher is capable of carry- ing on the odueition of fcrty ohildren varying in ago; frcm five ye^rs to thirteen, and who will in scine subjects, such as reading and arithmetic, be divided irto at least four and five classes re- spectively. As a rule this teacher must be a certificated teacher, or a ptrson who is regarded by ihe Board as qualified for recognition AS a certifir-.ted teacher, but we are told (I.) "the 1 tad teacher of a sohool with an average attend- ance of not more than 60 scholars (it used to be W) may bj a provisionally certificated teacher," et,o. (II) "Tho head teacher of a school with an averago attendance of not more than forty scholars may be an uncertificated teacher pro- vided tho inspector reports (a) that such a teacher is specially qualified to take charge of the school in question, and (b) that the school is so circumstanced that it is difficult to obtain a certificated teacher." I am not going to deny that these provisionally certificated and uncertificated teachers may be good teachers, and may earn H.M. inspectors' good opinion, but that after all is not quite enough. Lot ug take a few parallel cases. A few years ago the British Medical Association de- creed that no medical man should employ an as- sistant who had not obtained his "hall mark." This, no doubt, acted hardly on some very capable assistants who could not pass the qualify- ing examination. Suppose that, instead of this, they had decreed that in small villages unquali- fied assistants might act as fully qualified medical men; what would have been said by the public and by the village doctor? N-J one denhs that small schools are compara- tively more expensive than large schools, but they are necessary in the country, and means cught to be found to provide them with suffi- cient teachers to do the work they are intended to do Is it toe much to ask that every school, however small, should have a fully certificated teacher; that where it :s impossible to work the school in less than th,-ee groups at least, one qualified assistant should be provided, and so on. To onccurago ,'ocal authorities the Board of i'idueation might make a special grant equal to three-fourth ot the salary of each assistant necdod. This would r.ot give An ideal staff, but it would do to bi going on with; it would be an intraiment in payment of the debt the whole nation owes to the "toilers of the field."—I sm, etc., F. H.

INDUSTRIAL ALCOHOL AND THE INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE (To t.he Editor of the "Pioneer.) Sir,—With the enormous development of tihe mobor oar there is an increasingly difficult question to be solved, viz.: Where is the driv- ing energy to come from in the future ? Petrol represents a part of the stored energy of the earth; it exists only to tihe extent of about two per oent- in petroleum, and its supply will inevitably fail in the future- Even if we do not all know this fact we oertainly do know that the prioe of the spirit is increasing and a substitute is urgently needed. My object in writing is to draw tihe attention of those inter- ested in the subject to a valuable paper in the August number of "Harper's Monthly Maga- zine" by Professor Robert Kennedy Duncan. There he tolls us that German- and America have freed aloohoj to industry and deals with the advantages and disadvantages of alcohol as a motive power. To create an interest in tihe pubjeot I will enumerate a few points made by the learned professor, viz.: — Alcohol may be plIoouoed from any substance containing stardh or sugar Consequently tie paw materials of its manufacture lie everywhere and lon^ distance carriage is eliminated- Whether it is most profitably produced from sugar oane, beets, fruits, potatoes, ric6( wheat, rye, or Indian corn, depends simply on locality. Wherever the pnoe of a crop sinks below a critical value, either through, over-production or thxough d&maire, it May be Profitabl stored a in the fwm of a hoL Industrial atztol will t,%Us ot.,?,ady *o price of grain; it will act tc, the farmer as an insurance policy against loss, for it will provide him with an outlet against a glutted market. Of course, the British Go- vernment must be tauglht to see the advantages of differentiating botwe&n alcohol as a beverage and aloohoil as an industrial substance, and free the Latter from taxation in the wa our two leading competitors have dome—Germany and America. We must then get tihe ^agricultural Departments of our University Colleges, work- ing in harmony with the County Council Agri- oulturaj Committees, to experiment with various orops and instruct the farmers- If this were done we should soon have farmers and com- munities of farmers freely manufacturing alco- hol for industrial purposes—not for motor cars alorte, but for driving their own -doughs, dhaff cutters, threshing machines and churns; for pumping water, drawing heaw loads and for numerous otihar purposes where animal power is now employed. The 6ubjoct is a large and intensely interest- ing onAD. and I trust the be??t effortt3 c>f :?our I r will be u5od in educatin- putilic opinion, o??*without this our progresis must nooee-,arily Y be too slow to be effective.—I am, etc., Lland'udno.

THE OCTOBER MAGAZINES. "PEARSON'S MAGAZINE."—In the October number of "Pearson's Magazine" appears the last instalment of "Barbary Sheep." Mr Ro- bert Hit&hens has certainly never achieved a greater eucoass than this powerful romance of the desert—and all will part from its vivid characters with no little regret. Com- pensation will, however, be found in another great African serial which commences in the Ootobe?- n,uinl>ar-"Th,3 G-host Kin tt, by H. Rid,,r HagTard.

It'is- suffioielit 'to sa-T tl-i-at, judging f,rol-n the first instalment, .Ih,; Kings" will rank with his best work. "How to make Man Picturesque" is an article consisting of a series of ideas for the reform of male at- tire—contributed by many well-known people— and, aTe 93?iki-e of the su-gest.Clils -r of whi(y piotora*al ii:iu.,?tT&tior?a ar?e m Harry F urn.'Illa an a fz of humour both as to letterpreas and pictures oa his exl-,er"erik-es as a lecturer. He can tell a good story es well ali he can draw a pioture, and, be&t of all he is not afraid of telling a story against himself. "Tine Balloon as a Spy" is an account of the latc-st use of the balloon— as the eye of an army. By the use of a small captive balloon photographs may be obtained. qujetly and without danger, of an enemy's position-—no small advantage in time of hostili- ties- The invention, whidh has been made by Mr Griffith Brewer, of the Aero Club, seems certain to play a great part in wars of the fu- ture. An interesting art feature—"Music in Art"—is illustrated with excellent reproduc- tions of faxnoup paintings. There ia one of Mr S. L. Bens us iri's popular animal biograph- ies. entitled "Jook the Otter;" while an abund- ance of Short stories—including "A Revelation of A.V. and a further ad venture of the Lady Nogp-m,ake tihe October "Pearson's" a num- ber of particular excellence. "THE ROYAL.—One of the most interesting contributions to this month's "Royal Magazine is a striking narrative by A. Sarath Kumar Ghosh, of "The Life History of a Cobra." The writer is a well-known native Indian litterateur, and he deals with an uncommon subject in per- fect English- Mr Walter Wood also supplies amotiher of h% thrilling "Tales of Great Events, while Augusta Preeoott writes convincingly on "The Woman Beautiful" and how to develop a handsame figure. Another feature of note is an article by S. Leonard Bastin on the method of cultivating apples and other fruit bearing natural pictures on the outer peal. Amongst the shout stories "Driven Home," by Mr Mc- Donnell Bodkin, the eminent King's Counsel. is Idie nicat aocw ?ptable, but tlme ??F- E. R. Suff-ling, A. C-orr-dm Ed- n A-vrw. and Bart& R uck, a.,e "THE GRAN-D.kn interesting article in the ourrent number is "Blackmailers and tlheir vic- tims," in which the writer points out, nobody practically is safe, and the only way to avoid being financially bled to d-eath 13 to put a bold face upon the matter, and, hand the blackmailer over to the police at the very first threat- An article of a very different type, "Yorkshire Wit and Humour," i-eint,roduces us to a number of the best stories thatt have served to bring the inhabitant of the big normern county his reputation for shrewdness and the power of repartee. Another phase of human ingenuity is described for us; Mr G. Sidney Paternoster, of "Truth," who exposes for our edincation the tricks of the professional begging letter writer. The anecdotes related by tne Rev. W. A. C. Chevalier about- soime of the great men he has known furnish some particularly piquant reve- lations. Whether tlhe admirers of tlhe lata Mr Spurgeon—amd is not their name legion ?—will be pleased to he-ar what Mr Chevalier liaa to say about their idol, and his fondness for cer- tain of the "good things" of life, jg quite an- other matter. It is true that Mr Chevalier at- tempts, and perhaps not unsuccessfully, to pal- liate has statements, but in reading his article one is just a little reminded, we fancy, that there is a French dictum to the effoot that "Qui s'excuse, accuse." It would be too lonjg to enumerate anything like all the other good artioles in this number of the "Grand," but it would be impossible to dismiss it without at least mentioning the new chapter of Mr Wells's "New Worlds for Old," in which the illustrious author does not mince his words when describ- ing some of the "homes" of merry England, about whidh so much ridiculous gukh is often written- As for the stories, they are, as usual, up to the high standard of the "Grand," and thian this no higher praise could be given. The "STRAND MAGAZINE."—It would be al- most impossible to conceive of anything more delightful tlKun the exauisite coloured portraits of famous beauties winich are reproduced in the "Strand Magazine" for October in an articlc dealing with "Beauty and' the Camera." In its stories and articles the "Strand" i&, as usual, alike deeply interesting, instructive, and amus- ing. The startles particularly are exceptionally good thes month, prominent among them being "A Way Out," a story of intense human inte- rest by that popular writer C. 0. Andrews a f highly dramatic and thrilling story by Tom Gallon entitled "Death Comes in. Motley"; a charming Btory of a deception which, after all, was not a deception, entitled "VioLa's Por- trait," by Mrs Philip Champion de Crespigniy; and "Double Dealing," by W. W. Jacobs, a story in the true Jacobs vein, and which would' bring smiles to the most taciturn of mortals. A number of our leading dramatists, among them being Mr H. A. Jones, Mr A- W. Pinero, Mr W. J. Looke, Mr Sydney Grundy, and Mr L. N- Parker, describe their methods of work in preparing a play for presentation. Other articles include "Crime in the Poet Offioe," "Caran D'Adhe as a Toy Maker"; "How to Play Chopin" bv Vladimir de Padh- mann; Up-to-date Telephotography, by Captain Owen Wheeler; and "The Life Story of a Sycamore 'Key' by the eminent natura- list J. J. Ward. In fact there is not a single article or story, or, for the matter of tihat, il- lustration in the October "Strand" which does not we'll repay pemsa.1, and' froim which both pleasure and profit may not be derived. The "SUNDAY "^TBAND" oontains two timely articles on the Church Congress that is held at Yarmouth. The first of the artlioles gives a very able summary of the "History of the Church Congress," and is written by George F. Emery. son of the "Father" of the -——!——- 9 r congress, the Venerable Archd&acon Emeity. This is illustrated by photography hitherto uiji- published. The seoond article gives a gmaphi# description of Yannouth where the oongreta M to be held, with photographs of the vicar oi Yarmouth, Canon De Unair, and the places oi meeting. Admirers of the late Charles Spurgeon will welcome the article on the scene of Spur- geon's firtft ministry at Watarbeach- Sunday School teachers and all Christian workers should read the Rev. J. H. Jowett's "Bible Talks." and Professor Peace's "Plain Thoughts"—tihej are of enormous value. Tiaere are several capi- tal short stories in this number, notably tb? one entitled "His Wife. It is a story intensely huma-n- Others equally worthy of notice "The Gift of Thomas Beddoea," by E. M. Jamceon; "Poor Dick," a true story by S. 1A Sotgille; and "Tine Heme Coming, by Louisa Forrsiund. The Rev. J. G.

He added that his resigna- tion would take effect next Euster- The Vein. Llewelyn Wynne Jones is one of the most popular clerics in the diocese of Asaph, and the news of his resignation of the living will be reoetived with general regret. H« was educated at Christ Church College, OxfonL where be took higlh honours. He took hm B. A- degree in 1881, and his M.A. in 1884. in whoaa year he was called to the Bar of Inner Temple. Ordained deacon in 1886, he was ad- vanced to tihe pniesuhoixi in the following vear by the Bishop ctf St- Albans. His first curaoy was at West Ham. London where he remained from i886 xitail 1888, when he accepted a curaov at Upper Tooting where he remained untU 1892. He then became ohaplain at Algiers, but returned after a two years' stay there, and took otv;ork at Wrexhani- He was appoia4,ed vime t St. Mark'is, Wre-hA-n, a?,? renislned tbwo from 1896 tIDtil 1899. and held the living of Llangollen fmorn the latter year until 1903, when be was offered and accepted the vicariate of Oawesftry.
