LLANGATTOCK. Egg Collection.—The collection in the parish this month for the wounded soldiers amounted to 74 eggs and 5d. in money. The collectors were Mrs W. Da vies, Gwe&n Dewson, Gertie Pritchard, Rachel Bevan, and Edith Jones, all of whom are deserving of many thanks. The number of eggs collected in the Crickhowell district since the latter part of 191 is 14,600.

Price, to transfer moneys and documents belonging to the Builth Agricultural Show Society, the Builth Ploughing and Hedging Society, and the Builth Shoeing Society, to representatives of these societies.

LLANGAM&-RCH WELLS. Distinguished Visitor.—Sir Robert Harvey, the eminent phvsician, is staving at the Pump House Hotel. Concert and Presentation.—On AVednesday evening last week an excellent concert -was given at the Alexandra Hall, and was very largely attended.' The main object of the gathering was to present Mr Evan Jones with a testimonial on his departure from Llan- gamrnarch to his new home near Garth. The present was handed to him by Mrs Jones, Tanycoed, and the Chairman (the Rev. E. Evans), Mr Jidw,ard Jones and Mr 1. Williams ] Spoke in eulogistic terms of the valued services Mr Evan Jones had rendered for years as con- ductor of the children's choir and as member of the C.M. Church and of the Sunday school. Mr Jones suitably replied and expressed his regret at leaving the place where he had been brought up and where so many happy years had been spent. He had loved the work. and was always happy when he was able to do so-nething to promote the welfare of the young people, especially those who were con nected with their cause at L lan gam march. (Applause). The Ladies Choir gave an excel- lent account of themselves under the leadership Mr T. Jones. Cefnserwydd. The pieces selected were '"NeWicl Cywair (change of key) by-Mr Bryceston Treharne Shield's ''Happy fair" and "Can y Cryd"' (a cradle song) byJVIr John Price. Beulah. The children's parfy. perfectly trained by Mrs Evans, Myrtle house, gave three action songs, which were greatly appreciated, viz.:—"Pit a pat." "Ladies and gentlemen" and Eight little mothers. Miss 1 Gwyneth Davies, Glaslyi*, gave a very effective rendering of her song, Mabel Herbert and Myfanwy Herbert each gave one song in a highly creditable manner, and the duetts of Miss Katie Jones and Mr Elwyn Jones, and of Messrs Willie Williams and J. P. Jones were most successful. At the close a collection for the Red Cross Fund was made.

CEFN COED. Military Medallist's Bravery and Initiative. —Mrs J. Chappell, 190, High street, Cefn Coed, has received a letter from her son Pte. Harry Chappell, M.M., South AVales Borderers,, at present in Salonika, giving an interesting account of an investiture held there recently when he was decorated with the ribbon of the Military Medal. The following is a copy of the letter he received from the major-general commanding his division :—"To Private Harry Chappell, M.M.—For con- spicuous bravery and enterprise during a raid on the enemy's trenches 011 the night 8th/9th May, 1917. Throughout the operation he was first and foremost of a party of bqjnbers and when his N.C.O. was wounded lie took charge of the party on his own initiative, although slightly wounded himself. His conduct throughout was worthy of very special mention." Died of tWounds.—Sergeant W. Archard Morris, D.C.M., Welsh Regiment, nephew of Mrs. Baxter, Cilsanws lane, has died in hospital in Birmingham from wounds received in the rece'nt great offensive in France. The funeral took place at Carmarthen on Tuesday with Jnilitary and civic honours, and was very largely attended. Four brothers of the deceased are on active service in Palestine. Funeral.—The funeral of Mr David Evans, a well-known resident of Cefn Coed, took place at Tabor burial ground on Monday, the Rev. J. Seymour Rees' officiating, assisted by the Rev. J. Carrara Davies. The deceased was a brother of Mrs. Henry Jones, 195, High street, Cefn Coed, with whom he had resided for many years. He was fifty-three years of age.

CRICKHOWELL. May Fair.—The May fair was held on Mon- day. Expectations soared very high in the juvenile mind, extraordinary rumours being pre- valent as to the pending visit of shows and roundabouts to the town. The youngsters were given a holiday, but as far as the fair was con- cerned they were doomed to disappointment. Three donkeys and a caravan, stationed on the Garn, comprised the sum total of the "pleasure" fair. The business fair was a similar fiasco, three pigs being the only live stock brought to market. y

BRONLLYS. Killed in Action.-Pte. J. Cynfyn Davies, younger son of the Rev. W. J. Davies. Llan- wrda, formerly of Bronllys, has been killed in action. He was wounded last year, when serving with the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. Ori- 11 ginally he was in the Pembrokeshire Yeomanry

DEVYNOCK. Women's Institute Formed.—A meeting was held in the Reading Room, Sennybridge, on AVednesday evening, the 8th instant, to discuss the desirability of forming a Women's Institute foi, Sennybridge district. Miss Jones, from the Board of Agriculture, attended and fully explained the aims and objects of a Womcn's Institute. The term is applied to a group of women banded together to help their country and each other. This may be done, during the present war, by taking up work which may help in releasing men from the land and increasing' the food supply, by encouraging I village industries, the making of toys. baskets. &c" and by making the Institute the centre of village life. and the meeting place for the social. recreative, and educational efforts of the neigh- bourhood. It 'was resolved that an institute should be formed in the district, and that meetings should .be held alternately at Senny- bridge and" Devynock. The following were appointed as officers :—President, Mrs. R. D. Garnons-AViiliams, Llwyncyntelintreasurer, Mrs. Powell, Ajthrawdv, Devynock secretaries, Miss Evans, Bailybedw. and Miss Margaret Llewellyn Davids. Cwmwysk.

ABERGWfiSSlH. IJ l:j.kl IU' ï:3 J, I Bird Life.—Now is tlie time, and this is the district, to see bird life at its fullest and best. I The chorus of song in the early morniny is most stirring and thrilling. Nearly all of the British son-? birds artf'here. The narrow valley ». -itli 1"llllllillg streams, are lined with hedgerows, and the sides of the hills are covered with trees of various kinds, marsh land is in evidence, great rocks are jutting through the mountain tops, and lakes are in the vicinity. so that Nature has provided liberally for the different birds. A careful observer may see if he takes the trouble almost yvery kind of bird, from the little wren and linnet up to the buzzard mid raven. Although they are in a lovin(mood, a iiio* intense and ferocious fight- ing spirit dwells within their breasts. You will see the peewits and curlews chasing the carrion crows away, and the crows worrying the poor buzzard. A kestrel (hawk) and a jay were seen fighting, and so resolute and determined were the two birds that they kept on until they came to the ground. They were then taken hold of and carried to the farmhouse barn by a couple of young men. Here they were let loose, and immediately commenced fighting again. Local Show Triumphs. Several of the premiums given by the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, at the show of mountain pony stallions held at Merthyr Cynog last week, came to this district. Mr. Evan Protheroe, of Ty'n'cwm. was the recipient of JE7, t.5, and £ 3 premiums for three of his ponies. Mr. Hope, Llwyn^erw, and Mr. Jones, Glangweftyn, also secured a premium each. The premiums offered were twelve in number, and it was a fine record for this district to capture five out of the number given.

LLANAFANFAWR. Egg Collection. On Sunday last an egg collection was taken at Llanafan and at Llanfi- hangel-Brynpabuan for Builth Red Cross -Hospital. One hundred and twenty-nine eggs were received at the former church, and one hundred and' fifty at the latter, making a total of two hundred and seventy nine.

USS G35ISEHVJT0RS. Complaint of Brecon Sewage Works. A meeting of the Usk Board of Conservators was held at Abergavenny on Thursday, Mr. Reg. Herbert, of Clytha (vice-chairman) pre- siding. There were also present Colonel Sandennm, Mr. Anthony H. Miers. • Colonel deAVinton, Captain J. D. D. Evans, Mr. H. E. Gray, Mr, E. C. Maurice, Rev. D. Saunders Jones, ,Mr. David Powell, Mr. W. Gower Andrews, Colonel AV. AVilliams. Mr. Iltyd Gardner. Mr. W. G. James and Mr. J. 0. Tyler. On the report of the Clerk (Mr. H. S. Lyne). a rate of 3s. in the X. the same as last year, was ordcd to be made. Mr. LVtlc said that next year they would have paid off their loans, and he hoped they would be able to reduce the rate by 6d. In Head Water Bailiff Brace's report it was ■. 1 •. t !• •• V' no hit ion f!*o-i the Brecon and Sennybridge sewage works to report. Captain Evans said there were complaints of pollution from the Brecon Sewage Farm. Colonel deAVinton said the overflow left a great deal of sediment, but he did not know whether it affected the fish. The Clerk said the bmeU was objectionable, but the only deleterious effect was that it seemed to kill the fiy. Mr. David Powell, as a member of the Brecon Corporation, said he thought every thing was now satisfactory. It was decided to ask the Water Bailiff to make a report. CAPTAIN EVANS AND NETTING FOR TROUT. Captain J. D. D. Evans moved that applica- tion be made to the Board of Agriculture for the suspension of bye-law No. 12 during the wry, 1:¡ the river might be netted for trout to add to the food supply. He said rod fishing was considerably reduced, illicit fishing was also very much reduced, and the result was a very much increased stock of trout in the river, with an undue proportion of cannibals, which ought to be removed. He considered it ¡ a patriotic duty to net the river. All sources of food had been put under compulsion j long ago. and he thought it was wise to do the netting themselves before they were put under compulsion. He suggested that there should be no netting of trout from Aberg:\yenny down- wards, only a small quota should be drawn j from Abergavenny to Crickhowell. a larger I proportion from Crickhowell to Buckland, a heavier proportion from there up to Brecon, a 1 moderate proportion from Brecon to Penpont. a light proportion from Penpont to Senny- I bridge, and above Sennybridge no trout should bo taken. Although the lower reaches pro- duced ihe heaviest weight, the trout could not I>e replaced as well as in the upper reaches, I owing to the lack of suitable spawning ground aifcT frjfiutaneS. j Mr. Gower Andrews seconded for the pur- i pose of having the matter discussed. 1 Mr. E. C. Maurice said he reprcscutcolle of ] the largest owners (Mrs. tiwynne Holford) and | an owner who had let nearly the whole of her !¡ fishing,a thing which was never done before the war. He strongly opposed the motion, I because he did not think that the results would I justify it. Unless they extracted a vast quan- tity of fish more than at present it would not warrant the uxpense and trouble, and if they I did take a great quantity of fish more than at I present they were going to ruin the fishing, whichwas a great asset. He did not agree that fishing had been' considerably reduced theirs had increased, and they had 12 rods to six miles of water. His experience was that there was not a groat increase in the stock or the weight of the trout. Colonel Sandeman said the poor people it was sought to benefit would not buy the fish they were not going to pay 2s. or 3s. per Ih. for it. Mr. Tyler said he, know there were colliers who paid 4s. per lb. for trout. Mr. H. E. Gray said what he had done on his waters was to give twice or three times as many permits to fish, in many instances to working men. In one or two instances he had allowed one day per week, and this was a better way of catching fish than that suggested by Captain Evans. With regard to the letters in the Brecon paper, written by "A would-be Izaak AValton," he thought Izaak AValton was a man who would not agree to the tone of any of those letters, and the "more those letters were ignored the. better. As to the resolution, he believed that there was a rule or bye-law which enabled any fishery owner to net his own water by taking out a license which cost f.5, so that if any owner desired to supply food to the people there was an easy course for him. Per- sonally he preferred to give extra permits to fish. He did not agree with Capt. Evans that illicit fishing was greatly reduced. From Llan gynidr bridge up to Brecon poaching had con- siderably increased, and lie knew that fish was being sent from Talyllyn Station. Illegal fish- ing in the Brecon district was far greater than it was in pre-war times. Far from there being too many fish in the riser, it would be found that if they were short of water-bailiffs the stock would go down. Mr David Powell said there was a very strong. feeling in the Brecon district, and he thought that something of the kind suggested should he done. There was an impression that there werlop a lot of fish in the river which should be used for food. They all knew what steps had been taken by the Food Controller, and possibly their fish would be commandeered. After further discussion, Capt. Evans amended his motion to the effect that the Executive Committee be requested to consider whether it is possible to aid the food supply from the stock of trout in. the river to the general advantage of the country, and if so, by what means this result can best be attained, and to report to the Board. Mr Tyler suggested that the netting of. salmon should also be considered, and with this addition the resolution was carried. It was decided that, in the event of the com- mittee having any definite recommendations to make. a special meeting of the Board should be called. ':>'

I—wi ■ '!■! ■■ "'S -A 8n; h ire Labour Party. A meeting of the general committee of body was held at Brecon on Saturday last, nineteen representatives attended. county Councillor Idris Davies presided. The, Secretary (Mr LI. E. Morgan, Ystradj gynlais) gave a report of the position, statuis that ten local Labour Parties had been forniG in the- constituency, with a membership 0 4,000. Other branches were in course of forni. atioH. 'and the orgauiser of the agriculture* labourers was busy preparing for the ment of branches of that organisation in W1 near future. It Was decided to affiliate immediately witb the National Labour Party, and IlowellSj Brynmawr, was appointed defegate tI the June conference of that body also approach the_South AVales Miners' Federation for aid, on the ground that there are thousand of of that «-r; in the ",rxn Ft.itucnCy. Miss Pallister, of Brynmawr, spoke on the question of organising women, and branche were urged to hold meetings for the purpose. The question of contesting the constituent in the interests of Labour was discussed. plies to a circular letter showed that every affiliated bra?»ch strongly favoured a contest. It was resolved therefore to approach the LaboJI Party for consent. The Secretary was la- structed to call for nominations if the desire Of the divisional party is endorsed by the Kationa Executive. A resolution was passed asking the Brecoi1 Pensions Committee to treat more generously the representatives of the Discharged Soldiers and Sailors' Federation who attend the Pel1 sions Committee meetings.
