LLANFIH ANGEL-Y-CREUDDYN. A GRAN L) FOOTBALL MATCH, under Associatio n Rugby and Queensberry rules, was played here on Christmas Day between the Commins and the Village. The two teams were captained by Mr David James of the Cardigan Yeomanry and Mr David Rees respectively. The kick off took place at a time that cannot be commended near Pwlly- badell, the game started at a tremendous pace. and it was early seen that the two hostile legions were in earnest about it. The Village battalions made desperate attacks on the Commins goal, but Capt. James defended wonderfully and all efforts at beating the worthy custodian were abortive. The Village attack slackened down somewhat as the game advanced, and Captain James, not letting such opportunity to pass by, left his citadel and led a hot raid on the Village goal which escaped miraculously—thanks chiefly to the stout defence of D Morris Owens—aide-de-camp to Capt. Rees. After this some give-and-take play ensued, both sides attacking alternately until the anncftincefl dinner time. Recommencement of hoatilifes took placed at twcf p.m., wheh both > cagteins hag brought Te-inforceiiSfents.. Agairf the Villagers- assume the aggressive, "and rained shots at the Commins goal, but Capt James and his Hacks we#e not to be denied the sturdy defence of Llain Jones and Evan Jenkins was a proof against an early penetration. In an hour's time, however, a crimmage ensued, from which Evan Powell, to avert a disaster, conceded what proved to be the only corner of the day, which John Kees headed over, to the mortification of his brother David, but to the delight of Capt James, who was seen dancing with joy. Then came the Comminsites' turn to attack, which caused Capt Rees to re- arrange his liTle of defence in the case of a crisis. Isaac ltees and Ted Wright falling back, whilst George played forward, but the Commins attacked vigorously, Pugh nearly doing the needful—missing by inches. Darkness was fast approaching whilst the Village contingent were grudually weakening, and Captain James perceiving this, made an HrClllaean effort to take the Village fortress by storni-the pressure and noise being terrific and the Comminsites literally bombarded the Village goal; but Captain Rees, like Owen Glyndwr. inspirited his men with encouraging words, which had the desired effect. The long- looked-for relief, however, came from Capt Rees' own bot-t.-ti,.c leather travelling to the direction of Capel Cynon. The two captains held a confer- ence after this, when a treaty of peace was con- cluded. The return match to take place next Christmas. Individual criticism is out of the question. The features of the game were Captain James' driboling and shouting, and Capt Rees' fall, an incident which gained for him the com- miseration of all.

Choice cake of many varieties as well as other dain- ties clpar to the heart of every child, had been tonstintingly provided, also plenty of oranges for all, and every encouragement was given the little ones to thoroughly enjoy the good things. The feast did credit to both done s and purveyms, and Rev. and Mis. Davies fully des«>rvf>d the hoavty vote of thahks accorded to them in the meeting held subsequently.

PENLLWYN Query.—What is the best position for a clock in chapel? Hen Aelod. Charity.—The annual Boxing Day distri- bution of charity money and oatmeal took place at the Board School when a large num- ber of people from the parishes of Melindwr Parcel CanoL Cwmrheidol and Trefeurig assembled. The trustees present were the Rev. M. Morgans and Mr R. Adams. Scholastic.—At the last meeting of the Melindwr School Board Miss Gwladys Jane Adams was appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation on account of ill- health of Miss Mary C. Lewis, Tynllidart, assistant teacher at the Penllwyn Board School: Literary.—Out of nine competitors on the chief essay at the Aberystwyth Eisteddfod on Boxing Day, Mr. Abraham J. Pierce main- tained the distinction of Deing placed second for the best essay. The prize winner it is said was successful at the last National Eis- teddfod for an essay having for its subject the same as that at the Aberystwyth Bis- teddfed. Obituary.—The death took plaoe on Decem- ber 11th at the age of 71 years oI Mr. John Edwards, Penllwyn Cottage. The deceased was widely known and respected. He had been for many years district road surveyor in which office he commanded the confidence of all with whom he came in contact. He was one of the most faithful members of the Calvinistic Methodist Chapel at this place and was a competent teacner in the Sunday School. His loss in these circles will be greatly felt for a long time. The last sad ntes were performed the following Wednes- day at the Penllwyn Chapel Burial Ground. The respect in which deceased was held was shown by the large attendance of the general public at his funeral. The officiating min- isters were the Revs D. Morgan and D Lewis, Capel Madog. Tea and Entertainment.—New Year's Day proved most welcome and enjoyable for the members and children of the Penllwyn Cha- pel. All were treated to a substantial tea and other refreshments, provided out of the proceeds of the entertainment held in the evening- Tables were laid at the Board School over which the following ladies pre- sided:—Mrs and Mies Morgan, the Poplars; Mrs James Aelybryn, Mrs Morris, Pandy; Mrs. Williams and Miss Jones, Minafon; Mrs. Parry and Miss* Parry, Troedrhiwlwba; Mrs. Thomas, Melindwr; Mrs. Jones, Cwm- wythig and they were helped with a will by Misses James, Bangor Villa, E. A. Thomas, Rhiwarthen; M. Evans, Felin Rhiwarthen; K. Pierce, Uwladys J. Adams, and Annie M. James, Pwllcenawon. In the evening an entertainment was given. The Rev D. Mor- gan occupied the chair. Messrs. A. J. Pierce and E. D. Morgan fulfilled the post of secre- taries while they together with the Chairman and Messrs J. Morris and J. Parry adjudi- cated in the various competitions. Priaee 'werc^givea by the Chaiaaap, Messrs J. Her- bert Kiohards, Tvlors Town, and John Ed- wards, Nantymoel, two of the young men of Penllwyn home on their-holidays from South Wales. The entertainment on New Year's Eve has been held now for many years, and it is generally acknowledged that this years' has come up to and even surpasses its pre- decessors. Mr. Thomas Jones, DWpandy, and of Tylors Town had kindly lent his gram- ophone for the occasion. Various selections were given and they were greatly appreciated by the audience. It would not be exagger- ating to say that the selections on the gram- ophone added much to the success of the meeting. Although the programme was a long one, interest did not flag till the end and a large audience that completely filled the school room kept in humour and good order with complete success such as is sel- dom seen at such gatherings. All the sing- ing was good and some of the items exception- ally good. The recitations and the sketch 'were also well executed and interesting. The competitions were keenly contested.

Grand Concert.—A grand concert was held on new Year's evening at the above place in. the lower schoolroom, which belongs to the Llansantffread Church. This is an annual entertainment given by the churchpeople for very many years past. The programme con- sisted of a selection of vocal and instrumen- tal music, recitations, and a. spleudid drama- tic entertainment. Prizes were also given I for the best tit-bits and impromptu speeches. The Chairman was Mr. Wm. Timothy Jones, Garnfach Farm; the adjudicator Mr. Alban Jones, the accompanist Miss Morgan, the Grêfen The doors were opened at 6.30, and by the time the chair was taken at 7, the room was almost full with anenthusiastic and attentive audience. The Chairman de- livered a fine introductory address in his usual and capable manner. The programme was then proceed- ed with as follows:—Pianoforte solo Miss May Davies; Adroadiad gan hen iercn I solo, Milwr Clwyfedig," Mr. Morris Jones: ladies choir, 6olo Brenlnnes y don," Miss Thomas; Male Voice Party; sorïg, I've got something to be thankful for," Mr. D. Jonejs; recitation, To be continued," Mr. J. 1). Thomas; solo, Gwlad yr eisteddfodau," Mr. Morris Jones, solo, Japanese song," Miss Thomas; glee, Ti fy nghalon wyt fel rhosyn teg, pianoforte solo, Miss C. A. Jenkins; impromptu speech; the operetta. There is no need for comment on the programme, as all did equally well, but the promoters desire to express their acknowledgment of Mr. Mor- ris Jones' services in giving his assistance. Mr Alban Jones said that he experienced considerable difficulty i.n arriving at the re- sult as the material was so good and up to date. Mr. Alban Jones divided the prize for the beet tit-bit between Mr. Willie Davies, Rosehill, and Mr. Willie Evans, Croesdy, and the second to Miss Rosa Lewis, the Vicarage. There were six competitors for the best im- promptu speech, the subject being "Trech metel na maint,"The first and second prizes were equally divided between Mr. John Wil- liams, of Aberystwyth, and Mr. Harris Wil- liams, of St..John's College, Ystrad Meurig. The operetta, which constituted the latter half of the entertainment, was the first of the kind performed at Llanon. Its title was The Nodding Mandarin," and its illustrated life in the Chinese Emporer Hiami's house- hold. The scenery was magnificent and those who took part were splendidly dressed to re- present well-known Chinese characters. The arrangements were well carried out by Miss Morgan, the Green; Miss Lewis the Vicarage Miss James, Ontario; and Miss James, Mar- ion Villa. An abstract of the play was given by the Rev. D. Lewis, vicar, so that every- body could understand and realize what was being acted. Those taking part and the persons represented were as follows:-no Empress Feh-li-li, Miss James; Singi Sing, Miss Alma Junes; Patti Pi, Miss Ella Jones; 81i Sli, Miss Eleanor Beokett; Court ladies Misses Rosa Lewis, Roaetta Jones, May Dav- ies, and Kate Thomas; the Emperor Hiami, Mr. W. R. Morgan; the Magician Chang, Mr. D. J. Davies; Chin Chopee, Mr. W. Thomas; chief doctor PUlee Tek, Mr. D. J. Evans; §|uaoki Li (a doctor), Mr. J. L. Jones; Silkee lick (a doctor), Mr. W. Davies; chorus, Misses Florie Jones, Rosie Jones, Annie Row- lands, Dorothy Anne Evans, Jane Sinnett Thomas, Ellen Clarke, Margaret Anne Dav- ies. Mr. J. H. Jones, Mr. D. J. Davies, and Mr. Tom Clarke. A vote of thanks was pro- posed by the Rev. D. Lewis, and seconded by Captain Richards, Pantteg, to the Chair- man, the adjudicator, the accompanist and all those who took part. This having been acknowledged by the audience, the national Anthem was sung. Nothwithstanding the fact that there was another concert held on the same evening in the same village, this one was a. complete suocess in every respect, financially as, Met, more so than on previous occasions when this was the only one held. In reeognition of what our worthy vicar had said previously, the reser- ved seats' accommodation which had been greatly extended, proved not in the least too capacious, and not only that, the schoolroom was so fully occupied that there was hardly standing room for another person. This is very creditable indeed to the church people, considering what has been said about the spacious capacity of the schoolroom. Much of this success is due to the secretary, Mr. John Davies, Cledan Stores, and Mr. David JJavies, the choir leader, both of whom praise is due. A characteristic feature of the con- cert as remarked by several present was the way in which the audience so remarkably conducted themselves. The Chairman had not even once to proclaim silence and not a single individual had to be spoken to, which is not always the case in a New Year's evening concert. This was creditable to those present, and it fully proves that they appreciated the performance from begin- ing to end.

How Country People Read Advertisements. The "Pall Mall Gazette," in an article on Country Literature, some time back said :— For the most part readers in town (London) and thecuburbs only glance at, the exciting portions of papers, and then cast them aside.. Readers in the the villages read every line from the first column to the last, from the title to the printer's address. The local papers are ploughed steadily .through, iust as the horses plough the fields, and everv m rnw of type conscientiously fcllowed from end ttttd, advertisements and all. The brewer's, the grocer's, the draper's, the ironmonger's advertise- ments (market-town tradesmen), which have been there month after month, are all read, and the slightest change immediately noted. If there were any advertisements of books suitable to their taste it would be read in exactly the same manner. So it would in a daily paper, whenever it got to them. RII. in advertising for country people one fact must be steadily borne in mind-that they are slow to act that is, the. advertisement to produce any result must be permanent. A few insertions are forgotten before those who have seen them have made up their minds to purchase. When an ad- vei'tiaeiaent 8 always there, by-and-by, the thought suggested acts on the will nd the stray coin is in- vcstfii—it may be six months after the first inclina- tion arose. The procrastination of country people is inexplicable to hurrying London men. But it ia iviifft useless to advertise unless it is taken into ac. ?o"«nt. If permanent-, on; Ivertisement in thelocaJ press will reach its mark
