A NEW ACT.

A NEW ACT. Of the number of new statutes which came into force yesterday, one is that known as "The Probation of Offenders' Act." Under the powers hitherto vested in them, magistrates could discharge a pri- soner under certain circumstances, il he entered into a recognisance and provided sureties for his good behaviour in future. The new Act empowers them, if they think it desirable, to release the offender on recognisances, subject to the surveillance of a probation officer." As Sir Horatio Lloyd remarked at Chester on Monday the success of the Act will depend largely upon the way in which the probation officers carry out their duties. Vehement protests have been made from time to time against the system adopted by the police in cases where justices have bound over" offen- ders, and at least one notable novel has been founded on this subject. Sir Horatio Lloyd also disbelieves in the system. "A person placed under police supervision," he says, is sometimes too much looked after. The fact that a person is a marked man becomes known to employers, and however anxious he might be to redeem his own character, this fact has been to some extent detrimental to him." Who will act as the probation officers is not quite clear. A corres- pondent, writing to a daily contemporary, pertinently suggests that the duties be per- formed by police court missionaries. specially selected by the magistrates. There are such officers already attached to most courts in large towns, and the very excel- lent manner in which they carry out their present work justifies the hope that they could accomplish the new duties of proba- tion officers with success. We venture to think that there would be no dearth of suitable persons to undertake the duties in smaller towns at little, if any, cost. The intention of the Act is a noble one, and it will no doubt be judiciously utilised. 11

Colonel Sandbach has given notice of his intention to move the following resolution at the Denbighshire Quarter Sessions, at Ruthin to-morrow (Friday) That there is urgent need to establish an organisation to combat the immorality that prevails North Wales, and to provide preventive and rescue measures for the protection of women such as exist in South Wales, and in parts of England." The resolution touches a question of vital importance to the fair fame of the Principality, and will doubtless be the means of directing public attention to a condition of things which needs improving. Whether it be from a sense of false modesty or not, the question is one which has received little, if any, consideration by responsible authori- ties, and Col. Sandbach's resolution will have served a useful purpose if it does no more than bring public authorities to realise the importance of combatting immorality. The measures adopted in South Wales have been remarkably effective, and if organisa- tion can do much where the population is so large, it can accomplish much more in North Wales, which is less thickly popu- lated. The new lights on vehicles law comes into force on January 1st, when, so far as England, Wales, and Ireland are con- cerned, Scotland being for some extra- ordinary reason omitted, all vehicles will be compelled to carry a white light show- ing in the direction in which they are travelling. Only vehicles with a projection at the rear will be compelled to carry red tail-lights. This is, of course, a great ad- vance in the right direction, and to no users of the road will it be more welcome than to cyclists, who, because of the lightness and fragile nature of their mounts, are the greatest sufferers when accidents happen. But, as clearly pointed out more than once in this contribution, the Act needs amendment^ and can never be thoroughly satisfactory until all vehicles are compelled to carry rear-lights. This applies especially to cyclists, who at present are most inade- quately, protected against the fast motQr traffic that overtakes them. That such obvious provision for safety must be made sooner or later seems certain; one only regrets that it should be unnecessarily delayed. • • • # "Quite the best joke of this Christmas has been the 'burglary' at Cholmondeley Castle," says the Western Mail. "We do not know what the marquess thinks about it, but the ducal party from the rival house of Westminster are to be compli- mented on their coup, which, no doubt, the marquess will pardon as a Christmassy jeu d'esprit. This descent of the part" from Eaton Hall upon the sacred racing trophies of mv lord of Cholmondeley smacks of a repetition of history with an up-to-date setting. It re-calls the old feuds of the border, when every baron, whether he exer- cised it or not, considered he had a perfect right to pillage his neighbour's property, especially if his neighbour happened to be weaker than himself. The Cholmondeley Castle episodel had all the trappings of modernity; the great, gay house-parties, full of spirit and rollicking fun a powerful motor-car which seems to have charged a heavy iron gate with success; bewildered retainers; and, finally, anxious policemen scouring the country for a damaged motor- car full of burglars J All's well that ends well, and, though fifty policemen may be dreaming of lost promotion, the burglary happily turned out to be nothing more than a practical joke, cleverly carried out, by one great house party upon another. Thank goodness that the spirit that con- ceives adventurous practical jokes and hap- pily carries them through has not dis- appeared." • .» « The new year will bring in the case of several railway companies an advance in the prices of excursion tickets and the with- drawal of certain privileges" which it has long been the custom to grant to custo- mers. In the great coal strike in the early nineties most of the companies put up the prices of their tourist and week-end tickets, and the prices have remained at that level ever since. Further advances have now been agreed upon, which will take effect early in the year. At the same time the Manchester railway offices have decided to discontinue the practice of "endorsing" tic- kets. Up to now it has been an easy mat- ter, if one knew the right person to ap- proach, to get an excursion ticket extended for a day or two, or made available by or- dinary instead of excursion trains. This system has grown to such an extent that the leading companies have felt compelled to stop it, and a mutwal agreement has been arrived at under which the companies bind themselves not to vary the terms of excur- sion tickets, except in certain quite excep- tional cases. » # # Magistrates, probably more than parents who are anti-vaccinators will welcome the advent of the Vaccination Act, which came into force yesterday. Hitherto it has been necessary for a parent who objected to the vaccination of his offspring to appear before a magistrate and satisfy him that his ob- jection was conscientious before he became entitled to a certificate of exemption- Hold- in." opposing views as to the desirability or undesirability of vaccination, and vary- ing in their ideas of what constitutes con- scientious objection, magistrates have dif- ferred in their decisions. By the new Act the exercise of their discretion is not re- quired, as no certificate is necessary. When registering the birth of a child the parent may now obtain from the registrar a form of declaration, and if he be opposed to vaccination he may, within four months, fill it in to that effect before a commissioner of oaths or a justice of the peace, and post it to the vaccination officer of the district. This obviates the unpleasant duty of attend- inn- a police court. The statutory declara- tion is exempt from stamp duty. THE LESSON OF THE ROSES. (There are rose trees in full bloom out- side the door of Holywell Workhouse.) "Hope springs eternal in the human breast," Although with icy blasts we've* been distrest, Why should be pine for sunny days once more When roses bloom outside the workhouse door!

From a.n ecclesiastical point of view, the parish of Lydford, in Devonshire, .holds the record in point of size. Wales has several parishes of over 30,000 acres, but Lydford's vicar has jurisdiction over 60,000. Within a week the London and North-Western Railway Company have lost three of their best known express drivers at Crewe. First, Michael Hanrey, who died a few houra after leaving his engine; secondly, Ben. Robinson, who met with such a tragic death after driving in the Irish mail; and thirdly, Edward Austin, who died on Tuesday morning. All were the top linkmen on the line.

It was a very successful Eisteddfod, and also un- conventional. A novelty, in these parts at any rate, was the bold stroke of dispensing with the chair poem, so that we witnessed the chairing of the bard when there was no bard, but onlv a man of music. It was like a representation of the classic tragedy of "Hamlet" without the Prince of Denmark However, we are great innovators in these days, and. as quotations from commonplace chair odes have long been a tedious infliction upon eager Eisteddfodic crowds', it was a. relief to-day to enjoy all the gilt ana sugar of the chairing business without having to swallow the correo, lve intellect.uaJ pill that these things ought to cover. I wonder why it was that so few bards responded to the invitation to grace the chairing with their presence. Possi- b y, there wa- a conceited determination to boycott the ceremony in protest against its de-1 gradation by being associated with tho triumph of a mere reproducer of music—not even the c'eator of music. » » » • Hive I hit upon another subterranean re- bPpjr n. like that the teachers a.re cultivating in Carnarvonshire, or like tha.t which the college authorities had to deal with at Bangor and Aberystwyth a few years ago? If so, what a. fund of startling newspaper headings there will be to draw upon: "Ba.rdic Strike!" "Poets In a Passion!" _"Eisitieddfodic Lockjaw!" etc., etc. In my opinion, bardism is a decaying force, much as admire its long-haired devotees, and every organism resists extinction while it can. Possi- bly the fraternity have s -zed the sword of the boycott or the strike in the hope that It will serve them like the sword Pcredur wielded to secure the overthrow of the enemies of dislike and indifference which is accomplishing their downfall I # » Tho speech of Mr R. T. Davies, as the presi- dent in the afternoon, was interesting because ha was able to relate how the Eisteddfod was lll- troduced into the great island continent of Aus- tralia. In all his travels, he said, he had never seen a lovelier oouiu-ry than Wales, nor a pret- tier village than his native village of Llanddulas. We may pardon his patriotic pride, but, after all. there is a groat deal in what he says. Aus- tralians have skies, no winter worth speaking of, a beautiful coast line for the most part, and sub-tropical vegetation, wherever there is moisture to permit of its growth. But there are many drawbacks even there, and our •humid climate, with its changes of weather, at least gives us that variety which is the spioe of life. Oddly enough, the. chairman at even- ing meeting. Dr. Reginald Jones, has also been to Australia, though he remained there, per- haps, .not as many days as Mr Davies lived there years. ———————————„
