LLANGAMMARCH WELLS.
LLANGAMMARCH WELLS. C.M. Sunday School Festival.—The Calvinistic Methodist Churches of the district held their annual Sunday School festival at Llangammarch this year, on Wednesday, the 28th ult. There were two meetings, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. The schools of Llangammarch, Llanwrtyd, Gorwydd and Hermon (Tirabad) took part in the afternoon, and recited the different por- tions of Scripture allotted to them, and were catechised by the Revs. E. Evans, I Gorwydd, and R. Evans, Llanwrtyd. Two prizes were offered for reciting and were won by Miss May Herbert and Miss Mabel Herbert, both of Bridgend, Llangammarch. In the evening a musical service was held consisting of hymns and an anthem, "With Afonydd Babylon" by Dr. D. C. Williams. The Rev. S. George, Llandrindod, ably con- ducted the hymns, and Mr D. J. Price, Llanwrtyd, the anthem. The singing was decidedly good and effective-atid much credit is due to the conductors of the several churches for the ti-aiiiing they had given. The organists for the day were Mrs Thomas, Llanwrtyd, Miss Gwyneth Davies and Miss Katie Jones, Cefnserwydd. The evening meeting was presided over by the Rev. Rees Evans, Llanwrtyd. J
;UNREASON AND UNREST. t______
UNREASON AND UNREST. There is a close association between unreason and unrest. The one is care- fully being used to create the other. The connection is largely that of cause and effect. The agents—secret and open- who conspire to ruin this country for the benefit of its enemies are intelligent enough to know that very many people do not too carefully reason things out. They use this fact to serve their malign purposes. After the long strain and z, stress of the war the .nation was eager for the fruits of victory. The Govern- ment set itself with all speed to secure them. But the agents of unrest seized on the opportunity presented by the natural impatience of sections of the people. They pursued a double course by every means possible they endeavoured to hinder and hamper the Government in its work, and while they did this they slanderously argued that the Government was either slow in effecting necessary reforms or else unmindful of the nation's interests. That was untrue yesterday and it is untrue today. Less than seven months ago the guns ceased their clamour on the blood-soaked battlefields of Fr nee. From that moment the elected governors of the nation have strained every effort in the i, nation's interest. They were faced with the most colossal task that has ever fallen to the lot of any Administration. They are rapidly fulfilling it and at the same time meeting and overcoming the con- tinuous series of conspiracies deliber- ately designed to prevent them from I I accomplishing the high purpose to which they have set themselves. That is the plain truth of the present situation. The international work of the Government has been well and wisely done and is rapidly approaching completion. It has taken time that was inevitable the remark- able thing is the short period of time it has actually taken. It must be remem- bered that the task embodied nothing less than the remodelling of the Continent and that a false or ill-judged step at any time might have done incalculable harm. If the position is viewed in the light of calm reason it will be seen that the campaign against the Government carried on by the agents of the Bolsh-vists and of the Huns is nothing less than a campaign of gross and calculated misrepresentation de- liberately designed to damage the best interests of Britain. The virulence of the agitators is having the inevitable effect on the commonsense people of this country and is already beginning to defeat its own ends. This has been shown by the failure to bring about a general strike that would have brought the nation to starvation, the failure to cause mutiny in the Army that might have led to very great disaster, and indiscipline in the Police Force* that would inevitably have had the most harmful results. Even among those who have not the habit of reasoning things out, 4ttid whose impatience inclined them to listen to the counsels of unrest, the fact is beginning to be realised that the revolutionaries' "policy" is designed solely for destruc- tion while the policy of the Government elected by the people is wholly one of construction. The spirit of common- sense is abroad and is making its influence felt the day of the agitators is passing. And that is one reason why they rage so very furiously at the moment.
TOWN AND COUNTY.
TOWN AND COUNTY. Most people have grumbled sore and often against the Food Control Ministry and its works, and the prospect of the early disappearance of all restrictions on the sale and purchase of food has been hailed with joy. But we are not out of the wood yet, and there are certain in- dications that the consuming public would be better consulting their own interests by praying for the continuance of food control than by rejoicing at its impending removal. Take Brecon and its cattle market as a small illustration. On Tuesday, for the first time since the food shortage necessitated restrictive orders, veal calves were sold without any restriction whatever, with the result that they made all average of nearly 2/- per lb. That means a prohibitive price to the customer in Brecon, but not to the prosperous working men of the industrial centres just beyond the Breconshire bor- der. It is idle to talk about profiteering we are all out to get as much as we can for ourselves. There is the fact to face, that the miners and other workmen thirty miles or so away have plenty of money to spend, and they will pay any price to gratify their fancy. If we have open sale the vendors cannot be blamed for taking the highest offer it is only what the rest of us would do. It may be asked is the writer in favour of permanent Government control, with all its vexations and unfair incidence ? He is not, but the Brecon market object lesson does suggest that it may be desirable to continue control, in whole 01 in part, for some time longer, whilst shipping tonnage is being restored to get freights down, and some attempt is being made to replenish the world's stocks. In one matter close control for another year is practically certain-coal stocks are very much below the normal, the miners are working less hours and pro- ducing less in consequence, and the rail- way companies are not yet in a position to carry with pre-war celerity. The sheer necessities of the case dictate the continuance of the coal restrictions, and it has already been hinted on behalf of the Fuel Controller that it may be I necessary to revise the allotments. In Breconshire we must prepare ourselves I for another winter of indifferent fires of Welsh coal in our living rooms. The day when we shall be able to enjoy a cheerful English coal fire again seems to be very far away. Welsh coal. however, is better than none at all, and in some of the large English towns people have often been without coal during the past winter for days at a time. Let us be thankful, therefore, and show our grati- tude and our common sense by deter- mining to faithfully carry out the orders which protect us from a worse fate. A good deal was said in this column last week about the practical good the Farmers' Union may be made to accom- plish for its members if only they will use it as a union, and not so much as a talking shop. Another illustration has since been brought to one's notice. At the recent May hiring fair, Breconshire farmers, in serious difficulties for the want of labour, found Glamorgan farmers bidding over them and far above the legal minimum for the services of the men who were seeking fresh situations). Now if the Glamorganshire farmers had always been in the habit of coming to Brecon hiring fairs for men, it would be ratlger difficult to make out a. case for the interference of the Fartrers' Union now. But they have not been in that habit this is a new move to supply their own labour short- age at the expense of their fellows in Breconshire. If the Farmers' Union is going to stay it must tackle problems of this kind, and take steps to make a repetition of the Brecon May. Fair incident impossible. The thing can be done "peaceful picketing" (save the mark) is a lawful thing, and it is open to the use of the farmer as well as of the artisan.

BEUHH. Home After Good Service.—After four and a half years' service, Mr Alfred D. Jones has returned. He joined the Brecknocks in the autumn of 1914, afterwards was transferred to the Glamorgan R.E. and went to France. He went through a full share of hard- ships, but fortunately escaped injury. He is now looking well, and his many friends hope he will soon be taking a leading part in the life and work of the place, as he used to do.
