BEULAH. Visitors.—The last few weeks have been remarkable for the number of visitors who have visited this place from the neighbouring health resorts. A stay at Llanwrtyd is not a complete affair without the drive" through Aber- gwessiu to witness the wonderfully beautiful scenery as far as Beulah. A short stay at Beulah. before returning to Llanwrtyd, for the popular tea and re- freshment is now considered the proper thing to do. On Leave.—We were very pleased to see Pte. Rees Arthur, 102nd Labour Coy., son of Mr David Arthur and Mrs Arthur, Dryslwyn, home on 14 days' leave.

WHY MAHOGANY IS DEAR. Solid mahogany is an extremely dear timber to buy, and the greater proportion of the so-called mahogany furniture con- tains only a thin veneer of this wood on its surface. The mahogany tree is a native of South America, in which coun- try it grows to a height of 100ft. it is of exceedingly slow growth, which mainly acoounts for its high value, and also it is a solitary tree, never growing in dense plantations. In fact, it is seldom that more them one mahogany tree is found on an acre of ground. It takes fully 200 years for a mahogany tree to arrive at maturity. m

( Heard at the Circus., What a happy laamy 01 jucKUiiws uuu cais Water.—The authorities continue to J be considerably concerned as to the town supply of domestic water, and users cannot be too particular in exercising economy. Thus far no serious in- convenience has been felt, but consumers can greatly assist in the matter by not drawing more water than is absolutely essential while the drought lasts. I Sale.—The Queen's Head public house and premises were offered for sale by auction at Abergavenny last week. The premises are leasehold, the ground rent payable being _£15 per annum, and they are let at £ s per annum, the tenant paying rates. The property, however, was not sold. The vendors were the [ trustees of the late Mr Thomas Delafield, of Abergavenny, brewer. Personal.—" What on eartli do you i want here at this time of night ? Why, I'm worried enough by day with people always gaping at me, and passing dis- paragiug remarks about the family, without 3*our bothering me at midnight. You wants to know who it is that's bee, P-Vnng that 3;,Itfii about the parish, about I, our family, do you ? Well, all I can say is what's the odds who done it ?

Now get along home, do, and for good- ness don't come to me pretending to be put out when you know that what was said was true." Cricket.—An interesting match took place on Saturday last, when Crickhowell ¡ received a visit from Tredegar. The visitors scored 46 runs, A E. Davies taking 6 wickets for 1G and Longman 4 wickets for 17. The home team com- piled 67 runs altogether, of which Wilfred Townsend contributed 19,Robert Evans 18, and Strudwick 12.

LLANGATTOCK. Sale.—At an auction held at Aber- gavenny last week, the freehold public house and premises called the Plough Inn, situate in this parish, were sold to Mrs Marv Ann Davies, of the Lord Nelson Inn, Pontlottyn, for £ 410. The vendors were the trustees of the late Mr Thos. Delafield, Abergavenny. MaliciousDamage.—In calling attention to the wilful destruction of the wall of the bridge across the brook, close to the Plas, we do so in the hope that the persons who appear to find pleasure in going about the parish destroying prop- erty, may some day be brought to book. It is very evident that the damage wrought is not done by thoughtless children.

BUILTH WELLS. Sunday School Treats.—Several Sun- day school treats took place on Wednes- day, the 18th inst. The members of the Parish Church Sunday School had a hearty welcome from Mr and Mrs O. W. Davies at Aberduhonow and had a glorious time. The children of the Baptist Sunday School did equally well at Pwllgwyn Farm, by invitation of Mr and Airs IIJUS. Jones, xioieo congrega- tional Sunday School went to Carneddau, and the visitors were hospitably received by Mrs Powell and family. The Wes- leyan School went to Caepandy, and Alpha School to Penlangrick, by kind permission of Mrs Jones. Personal.—Dr. and Mrs Rhys Davies, Ynys Buallt, have removed this week to Swansea, after residing in the Wyeside town for about 8 years.

To the Editor of the COUNTY TIMES- I SIK,—I have read with interest your leader re the Llangorse boating fatality, and whilst generally agreeing with its tone. regret no suggestion is thrown out for some drastic improvement in the con- ditions obtaining, in the interests of prospective boating parties on that lake. You seem to foresee the difficulty of placing any definite responsibility on the shoulders of a recognised authority. That issue apart, surely it would not be too much to suggest that on holidays, and occasions when boating is more general, patrol boats should be provided by those who are remunerated from the plying of the pleasure boats I have no doubt that the county coroner will press for some safeguards in the future. I would like also to add that it is time that searching appliances were provided on the spot, thereby facilitating the work of finding a body more quickly. The present system is most deplorable. Yours, &c., G. B. JONES. Isolation Hospital, Talgarth, June 23rd, 1919.
