IIor soprano voice is of widte range 841d very flerxible, and has beem described as the most remarkahre voice heard in London for many years. Mr Webster Millar, who will, on Saturday evening, commence a week's engagement at these concerts, was born at Manchester, and completed hie musical education at a college in that city. He made his debut as a tenor at the Hallo concerts in 1901, in Ba-ch's B minor Mass, when he achieved such a measure of success that he was re-engaged for the same and other works the following season. While at the College of Music he was awarded the Curtis' gold medal and diploma with honour. Later he studied under the famous vocalist, Victor Maunch. Mr Millar's engagements increased year by year with the result that he found it neoeesary to bid adieu to his native city, and take up his re- sidence in London. In September Mr Millar wall go on tour through Germany with the Sheffield Festival Choir. • « • « Ma.damo Melba, the world's queen of song, is announced to make her last appearance in England prior to her visit to America, at the Llandudno Pier Pavilion, on Saturday after- noon, August Gth.

Owing to the boisterous weather the sail- ings of the steamers of the Liverpool and North Wales Steamship Company have been materially affected, a number of the adver- tised excursions having perforce to be can- called. On Monday, despite the unfavour- able weather, the "St. Tudno" made the trip to Bardsey Island and round Anglesey with a fair complement of passengers, but was un- able to land at Bardsey. "La Marguerite" arrived, as usual, from Liverpool, and pro- ceeded up the Menai Straits. On Tuesday morning a strong gale was blowing, and it was decided to cancel all the sailings for the day, including an excursion to Douglas. To- morrow (Friday) the "Snowdon" will make the usual enjoyable trip through the Menai Straits to Carnarvon and back, a run through some of the finest scenery in Wales. An attractive programme of sailings has been arranged for th,e Bank Holiday week, when the whole fleet of steamers will sail daily to Douglas, Blackpool, Carnarvon, Liverpool, round Anglesey, etc. Particulars of these excursions may be obtained from the com- pany's courteous local representative, Mr Arthur Parton, at the Pier Gates. 11 • it THE HAPPY VALLEY MINSTRELS. These enrtertaaners have beesi attracting record crowds to the Happy Valiley each afternoon this week, and (Jncle Willie aaid his merry men have been in their best form, tiheir performances be- ing highly appreciated. New and interesting features are be'.n.g' continually introduced to the programmes. Mr Churchill's drscriptkm of the titles of throe new peers causee much laughter, as does also his description of England benn«- populated by aJionis and ruled by the Irish Quite a novel programme has heoem arranged for the Bank Holiday week. if "THE BUSY BEES These bright entertainers continue to incro-aso in public favour with visiters and residents alike. Several new features are to be added to the programimee for next week, including the appearance of two new artistes. » » t THE PIER BIOSCOPE. Mr Sam. Hughes (junior) is to bo complimen- ted upon the excellent reries of animated pic- tures displayed on his bioscope this week, which inoludb a dramatic incident, "Tho Passing Shadows" and the humorous picture, "A Night in Armour."

GEIRIONYDD RURAL DIS- TRICT COUNCIL. WATERLOO BRIDGE IMPROVEMENT. LOCAL CONTRIBUTION REFUSED. Mr Hugh Hughes, J.P., presided at the ordi- nary meeting of the above Council on Tuesday, when there were present: Rev. J. LI. Richards, Messrs D. G. Jones, Ll. G. Jones, J. Richards, and W. Evans, together with T. Hughes (clerk), and H. P. Evans (surveyor). WATERLOO BRIDGE. Communications were read from the County Councils of Carnarvonshire and Denbighshire in- timating that the joint Councils were prepared- to strengthen the Waterloo Bridge at a cost of 1 1' £ 2000 provided the Bettwsycoed Urban District Council and the Geirionydd Rural District Coun- cil each paid one-six th of the cost, the remain- ing two-thirds to be defrayed by the two County Councils interested. The Chairman, in reply to Mr M. Roberts, said the Geirionydd Council share would be about £350. Rev. J. Ll. Richards: Can the County Coun- cils call upon us to contribute anything towards the repairing of this bridge? It is a part of the main road, and as the County Councils are re- sponsible for the main roads they are equally responsible for the repair of the bridges which form part of the roads. This 'is in every sense of the wurd a county bridge. I understand that Bettwsycoed now are against strengthening the bridge, bs the traction engines would use it, and injure their roads. Mr LI. G. Jones: I move that we reply to the letters, "That we regret our inability to contri- bute anything towards the cost of repairing Waterloo Bridge." Rev J. 1..1. Richards: It is Lime we should tdl them to carry out their own work, and not try and thrust it upon the shoulders of others. Un- der Section 11 of the Local Government Act, 1894, the County Councils are responsible for the maintenance of the bridges on the main roads. Mr Matthew Roberts: Is it of advantage to this Council to tiave the bridge repaired? If so, we had better do something than to neglect this opportunity, or probably it will be left .s it us. Mr J. Richards: The County Councils admit that the bridge is not in a condition to bear all kinds of traffifc. Rev. J. LI. Richards: Has not the subject been raised owing to the fact that trade from Penmachno has go no from Bcttwsycocd to Llan- rwst owing to the condition of the bridge? Mr J. Richards seconded tho motion. Mr Matthew Roberts moved an amendment that the matter be adjourned to the next meet- ing. Mr D. G. Jones seconded. On being put to the meeting the motion was carried. TREFRIW RECREATION GROUND. A letter was read from the Local Government Board relative to the application for powers to borrow B500 for the purpose of purchasing the Trcfriw Recreation Ground, intimating that (lIC of tho Board's Inspectors would shortly hold a public inquiry touching the application. It was decided to forward the letter to tho Trefriw Parish Council. ISOLATION HOSPITAL. The Local Government Board wrote suggesting that the Council considered the advisability of obtaining an isolation hospital, either for therrv- • i selves or in conjunction with other local public bodies. The Clerk was instructed to reply that the let- ter would have the consideration of the Council. GOVERNMENT AID. The Surveyor was instructed to draw out a list of roads under which the ('ounci! could claim grants under the Development and Ru. provements Act, 190y. DAMAGING THE ROADS. A letter was read from Messrs Green, from whom the Council claimed B23 15s 8d for dam- age alleged to have been done by their traction engines to Ty'nyberth road, stating that they considered the amount out of all proportion to the damage done, and that they were not called upon to keep the Council's roads in repair. On the motion of the Rev. J. Ll. Richards seconued by Mr D. G. Jones, it was decided to accept C20 in settlement of the claim. CHILDREN'S ACT. A letter was read from the Clerk to the Car- narvonshire County Council asking the Rurn.1 Authority to peruse the bye-laws subjoined un- der the employment of Children's Act, 1S03, which he suggested should be adopted in the dis' trict. The letter wns laid upon the table. THE MAENAN DISPUTE. The Rev. J. LI. Richards reported that he and Messrs Matthew Roberts, W. Evans, L1. G. Jones, the Clerk and Surveyor had inspected the culvert in dispute at Maenan, and found that the natural course of the water was to the road. Mr Edwn Jones informed them that the culvert was there before he ever cleared it. They eon sidered that the best thing to do was to allow the water to run into the road, so the deputation suggested that the water should be cleared by the means of pip's through Rhiwdafna land to Bont Isa, provided Mr D. G. Jones acquiesced to the arrangement. The Surveyor intimated that his men exper- ienced more trouble with this culvert than atin other in the parish. Mr D. G. Jones: It is very evident that you do not want plain facts. The Chairman The deputation suggest a good way out of the difficulty, and I hope Mr D. Gr. Jones will see his way clear to accept it. Mr Matthew Roberts: We were all very anxious to settle the dispute amicably, and the suggestion offered to the Council is the best one we could arrive at. If the parties interested aro not prepared to accept it we can drop the whole matter, and let them take the initiative. Rev. J. Ll. Richards: Is Mr D. G. Jones Dre- pared to grant our request? Mr D. G. Jones: This is the first time I have heard of it. Mr W. Evans moved that the matter be ed- journed for a month to enable Mr D. G. Jo us to have time to consider his position. The Chairman seconded the motion, which was carried. TREFRIW MAIN ROAD. The Surveyor reported that he had received intimation from the County Surveyor to the effect that provided the Rural Authority placed a man on the Trefriw road three days m the week the County Council would place their man for the remaining part of the week. It was decided to accept the offer. NO PLAN. The Surveyor reported that the Rev. John Gower was converting a stable into a house with- out first having submitted a plan of the altera- tions. On the motion of Mr J. Richards, ficcnn(1.d by Mr D. G. Jones, it was decided to ask :»Ir Gower to submit a plan of the proposed altera- tiona

NORTH WALES TEACHERS AND TEMPERANCE. THE SUMMER SCHOOL AT COLWYN BAY. OPENING LECTURE BY PROFESSOR SIMS WOODHEAD. SIR J. HERBERT ROBERTS, M.P., ON THE OUTLOOK In view of the inoreoasing importance attaching to the teaching of temperance and hygiene in the schools the North Wales Temperance Federa- tion are arranging summer schools with the ob- ject of instructing and guiding teachers in their work. The first "school3' waa held at Rhyl laat year and the second is now proceeding at the Higher Grade School, Colwyn Bay, the open- ing proceedings taking place on Monday uitdier promising coacfctioiB. A prefatory note in the syllabus explains that last year's school proved such a success that more extensive preparations had to be made this yeax. "For those who attended last year and may be coming this year again, advanced classes in temperance and in hygiene have been ar- ranged. This advanced course includes, fourteen lectures together with fifteen hours' work in the labonaitory. The ordinary course (hrst year) includes twenty-two lectures, but in addition to temperance and hygiene the full course this year includes classes in physical training for first-year students and excursions fcr nature study. The members met in the Central IVil of the school at 6 p.m. to meet the President of the Federation (Sir J. Herbert Roberts, M.P.) and Processor Sime Wcodhead, M.A., M.D., of Cambridge, who had undertaken to g'ive the opening lecture. There was a large attendance, the teachers being accompanied by numerous friendis and local temperance workers. Refresh- mearts were served, Sir Herbert and Lady Ro- berts making their appearance midst .vociferous cheering during an interval. A musical pro- gramme was sustained and altogether a very happy commencement was thus effected. The Re>oeptcn Committee are indebted to Miss MaMwym PÚ. Misa Winnie Jones (Old Col- wyn), Mr D. Llew Davies, Messrs Jenkinson, Messrs Khydwen Jones and Davies, Mr A. Boardman, and others for kindly tervices ren- dered on the occasion. Subsequently wordfe of welcome to the com- pany and of thanks to Professor Woodhead for his services were spoken by Sir J. Herbert Roberts, Mr C. W. Adamson, Rev. John Edwards, and the Rev. T. M. Jones. SIR HERBERT ON THE OUTLOOK. After the Rov. Glynnet Davies, of Rhyl (the very enthusiastic teoretary to the Federa- tion) had acknowledged the receipt of some letters of apology—one of which was from Mr Fred. H. Smith, of Queen's Lodge, who sent a cheque for L5 5s in aid of the fund-and out- lined the programme for the week, he an- nounced that the competitions arranged by the Federation for essay and other work had resulted as foalows :-1. Mr R. Lloyd Jones, Tremadoc; 2, Mr R. G. Evans, Bryngw-ran; 3, Miss Kate Hughes, Biaemau Festiniog; 4, Mr J. H. Rr. berts, Colwyn Bay; 5, Mr W. J. Clifford, Llanelian; 6, Mr Albert HiM, Rhyl. It was reported that in addition to the £ 2 prize awardeki, Mr R. Lloyd Jones he had also won the goM medal offered) by Lady Roberts. Mr Glymne Davies added that Dr. Lle- welyn WiEhams, the examines* of the senior division, reported that the papers sent in by the winners were of extraordinary merit (applause). Sir J. Herbert Roberts, who was heartily cheered on rising, said in the course of his address from the chair the summer school was the child of the North Wales Temperance Fede- ration. He did not wish to be in any way egotistic, but they were perhaps permitted to feel a little pride in the fact that they as a temperanoe organisatiofa had had tho privilege of leading the way in taking practical advan- tage of the syllabus of temperance teaching established by the Board of Education last year (hear, hear). He hoped their example would be very widely followed. He was very glad to say that South Wales was emulating them—(hear, hear)—and Professor Wcodhead was to deliver the inaugural lecture to the sum- mer school in that part of the country in a few days. In the sphere of temperance, whatever their opinions might be about other spheres of work, they were Free Traders (laughter and hear, hear); they claimed no patent nor mono- poly for themselves and would ba only too glad for their example to be followed throughout the country. Those who had attended the sum- mer school at Rhyl last year would m ber how miccessfuj it was; the object of tliat school was fully fulfilled (applause). It was to wal-en a new interest in that branch of temprance work and lie was glad to say that a certain number of schools in North Wales had taken advantage of the winter months to carry out the instruction received by the teachers at Rhyl (hear, hear). There were cue or two distinctions in relation to the Colwyn Bay Summer School, and he desired to express his personal g-ratification that the school was being held on that occasion in Colwyn Bay. He had watched for maaiy years the de- velopment of the public mind and thought of Colwyn Bay, and he knew that the town was one of the best object lessons in regard1 to the prac- tical benefits of t-eml)ei-anco (hear, hear). It had been for years a centre of inspiration and of strength to the temperance cause in its inteDec- tiuiaj and social side. Another poim, of distinc- tion in that school was the comprehensive charac- ter of the course of teething and its lectures. Their lecturers Gill 'this occasion were men of undoubted position and influence in the spheres which they filled from an c'duca-tional standpoint and it would be both an honour and a. privilege to listen to their wDrds. of instruction (hear, hear). They could speciaJJy congratulate them- selves upon the fact tliat their inaugural address was to be delivered by Prof. Sims Woodhead (applause), than whom there were very few if any men in the country who had done more upon the I t-ellectibal and scientific side of the temperance movement to promote its principles in their national life. Professor Woodihea.d occupied a w." important chair in the Cam- bridge University and, as that was his (Sir Herbert's) old university, perhaps they would understand why it was tliat hel at all events re- garded that as the intellectual hub erf all univer- sities (laughter and hear, hear). Prof. Wood- head from his high and distinguished position in Cambrdge 1100 a rare opportunity for teaching tho principles off temperance and making them spread throughout tbeir national life, and they were indeed, honoured in having him there to give the inaugural lecture (applause). With reference to the PRESENT TEMPERANCE SITUATION they had no cause to be discouraiged (applause). They were making progress—progress ia many directions. The national drink bill is going down, procoedied Sir Herbert, midst cheers. In 1908 it was £161,OOO,0Ci0; last year it was £ 155-000,000, £6,000,000 less than the year before (eflieerii). We have ieamt ailso one or two lessons from the Budget of last year (hear hear). We have learnt that there :? a direct relation between tlie price of intoxicating liquor and the amount of its consumption and also another thing' which to my mind is quite as significant, if not more significant, that there is a direct rclat.on be- significant, that there is a direct relaLon be- tween the amount of tho consumption of in- toxicating drink and the erime and disorder of our national life (applause). Whilst giving fuLi weight, 'however, to the importance of those things which spring from iogisaiticn. and adminis- tration. I think I am right in stating that the out- standing development in regard to the temper- amce is in the essential place now be- ing given to preventive measures and one of the first of these undoubtedly is the essential place aind importance given io temjjerance teaching in the elementary schools (applause). Some of us liear in and out of Parhameait criticisms of our educational system. Many do not baLieve we get to-day the very best results from the ex- penditure of public money upon education, but vp I venture to predict that the development the change of which will take place in the future in regard to our educational system, will be in the direction of bringing' education into more direct touch with the actualities of life, tJhe dominating necessities of the citizenship of our country, and I claim that the movement which we arc endeavouring to promote through the instrumentality of these summer schools, n.a.mcly, preparing- the way, making temperance teaching cAn essential part in our educational life,—this movement must have a first place in the lino of that development (applause). WALES AND THE FUTURE LIFE OF THE COUNTRY. Proceeding, Sir Herbert said he was glad to know, as Professor Woodhead had already recognised, that the temperance question had for very many years, many generations indeed, in Wales occupied the first place in the natio- nal ideals and aspirations. A few days pre- viously a very interesting and important oon- ference took place in London for the purpose of considering whether it would be possible in the future to draft very many more Wekh scholars from the Welsh schools in the Civil Service. They trusted that much would come from that movement. The great majority of the positions related to the second class division of the Civil Service, but there e a certain number of high. posts connected with the first division which would enable young Welshmen and Welsh- J v women in future to play an important part and write same of the best things on the Lfe of the oountry upon the history of the world (hear, hear). But these distinctions and success were not to be achieved by intellectual capacity only but also by character—(applause)— and one of the foundation-stones upon which character must reteft was a loyal attachment, to the prin- ciple of temperance (hear, h«sr). I trust, said Sir Herbeft in conclusion, that this summer school wjll amply fulfil that prediction, made in reference to it, that it will be the means again of re-awalwttttjng tfee interests oi school-life in this vital question throughout North Wales and that it will pave the way and hasten the time when every teacher in every school in Neath Wales wiil not only be qualified but determined to teach the children under his care the essential prmcipioj of the temperance laitn (loud ap- plause). PROFESSOR WOODIIEAD S STRIKING ADDRESS A most cordial reception was accorded Prof. Sims Wcodhead who then proo-eded with his inaugural lecture on "For and ai>4Înst aioohol: What do we knOW! -NN iihouai we teach." At tine outset he remarked that, tnere were some ttiings tiiat made a man loci very humb.e and" he could Oiiiik oi nothing that would have that effect lucre than to hear one's very small elfoits eulogiaod (Laughter). Proceeding ho remarked upon how m-ucii easier it was tO-duy to sr-and on a piatiorm to advocate temperance principles and even, that of lenipcirance, for temperance was a branch of hygiene (near, hear)—ttiun at was in "he days gone by and much of tnat tact he attributed to the work of uuch men as the father of Lady Roberts, "one of tlie stauncnest of the advocates ol tcmperance —(cheers)—and the "magnificent work done by, I might almost say your countryman now, Dr. Carter'' — (a.p- puuose) men who by on the p.aUorm and in scientific investigation and argument nad laid such a t-ro.ad and tirill path that tJ1-e.d- successors could follow with comparative ease (hear, hcarj. itiey nad pointed out tho moral aspect of that question, tne sjcial aspect, and ceo riught even say the religious aspect. Temperance must necessarily play a very great pare, in the educa- tion at Uie young citizen, and its teaching must m some way lx, interwoven with the teaclmg oi otner things. He was not g-omg to belittle what nad been done by vojuntary organisations; toe work of the voluntary temperance advocate had) been of enormous value for k had always been ontnusiasUc and if they had enthusiasm uney had momentum. But the voluntary tem- perance advocate could only cover a compara- tively small area. Mr Walter N. Edwards, wl:, inability to deliver his promised lecture to We school they all regretted, writing on that question said; "la the march of progress it has at last come to be reccg-ruscd that the tem- peranoe question is one of such vital personal interest and national importance that every child should have at least some modicum of instruction in respect of it; that no child aliould go from sohood without 'having at any rate a. olianoe to learn something about ths great question, and that it should at any rate have some little knowledge oi the evil that may be wrought by intemperance." Toaehers were a^- ? at ra-^ instil rhe chid s mind some of fine knowledge of tlie evil that intemperance might work with winch they might, liave special acquaintance, and thev couid thus eeuid the dm Id on its way in better equipped to withstand the temptations to whicn it would be expeeed in the dawning of manhood or womanhood. Theie had Ixxn always a very p-eat difficulty up to tlie present in providing trained teachers capable of dealing with that great question from a level-headed point of view. In tlie school the teacher should always be an entuusiast. He should place before his pupils the knowledge of what he w':ö.hoo to impart in the most attractive hght possible. There had been aof training in temperance and hygiene which lor long had. stcod in the way of making it possible for the proper instruction Ive'1 131 t to be given m the schools. Whan the lar-e deputation in reference to that matter w^itSd upon Mr Birrell and afterwax-ds upon Mr McKerma, both ministers pomtixl out that at that time it was impossible to draw up a syllabus which would be oi any gieat value or could be c.arrie.d out to any great extent bemuse there were then no facilities for training- teachers to carry on the work which the deputation sug- gested. They realised, as everyone did, that the curriculum of the teacher at present was almost overloaded and that they were almost over- worked. At fu-st sight it would appear that putting another subject to the curriculum would be burdtefftsiome, brat pfliy&iolog-ksts recogniscd nowaidayc, that ° "CHANGE OF WORK IS REST." It must-, however, be a complete chapge. As they were all aware there compartments in the brain, and if one compartment could be put to work whilst all the others were at rest they would be able to get out of their brains a groat deal more work than they got when thoy kept pegging away on one- little area and allow 01113 piece of the brain to work continuously. He believed that, if they coUrid only recognise the important pari tern per anoe and hygiene must neceesarily play in the teaching of children every teacher would devote some part of his or her time to the careful study of the scientific prin- ciples on which temperance rested (hear, hear). if he had a boy and was going to put him into the church or to the bar and he had to study classics or law no would make it a sine qua non tha.t the boy received some scientific train- ing at school, because he believed the bey would require to bo developed in a rather wider direction than the special study which was going to occupy his thought during the grea-ter part of his life (hear, hoar). The study of physiology, chemistry, and elementary biology would be re- garded by many teachers as recreations: so would the study of temperance and hygiene. After further emphasising this point Professor Woodhead went on to point out the value of the thorough knowledge of the work. not only to the teacher but also to the child who promptly realised whether the teacher was enthusiastic and -well-ground in his subject. He warned teachers that in teaching they should attempt as far as possible to prevent the child being m- trospective. There was nothing worse far a child than to make it self-centred and therefore in carrying out the lessons of teunperanoei and hygiene it was well in the first instance to teach the dhild from outside models. Sun models were always to hand unfortunately, but if they took care they could give to the) child examples of the tilings it saw in its own life. Care should however, be exercised over the matter because a child was only too ready to apply to those immediately associated with it so-me of the les- sons it was taught. It wa& for intance, difficult to teach lessons on temperance to a child with- cait making it perhaps to think disrespectfully of its parents aind friends. They must avoid that because they did not want to weaken the influence of parents and friends over the child. They wished to prevent making the child priggish—(hear, hear),—which soon followed if they made the child think too much of itself. They should toaoh the cliiZdren to think they were going to have great influence- in bringing about total abstinence in the future- (hear, hear). Form Ing public opinion was a difficult- process and the future sobriety of the country depended upon the success with which they inculcated the principles of temperance and hygiene into the child of to-day. "Professor Woodhead went on to dtial with the influence of alcohol over the physical and moral man of tlie past and, illus- trating his points wJth great skill, he carried his audience with him right up to the close of am address lasting about an hour. Dr. Carter, Deganwy, proposed, Dr. Lloyd Williams, Bangor, seconded, and Lady Roberts supported a cordial vote of thanks to Professor Woodhead for his address and to Sir J. Herbert Roberts for presiding. The proceeding^ closed with the Welsh and English National Anthems. The oth-er lecturers for the session include Mr F. Llewelyn Jones, B.A. LL.B., coroner for Flintshire; Dr. D. Llewelyn Williams, medical officor of health, Wrexham; and Mr J. Lloyd Williams D.Sc., Bangor University; while Mr S. Glynne. Jones, B.A., Colwyn Bay, is the demonstrator and Mr A. F. Maude, of the Bangor Training College, is the instructor in physical training classes. This (Thursday) afternoon the members will be entertained at Penrhcs College by Miss Hovey, B.A.. the principal. and before the close of the term they will be the guests of Sir Herbert and Lady Roberts, at Bryngwonallt.

WELSH CONGREGATIONAL UNION. ANNUAL MEETINGS AT LAMPETEJT. BANGOR MINISTER'S DEFENCE OF ATHLETICS. The thirty-eighth annual session of the Welsh Congr«8gational Union opened at Lam- peter, on Monday, an unprecedented number of delegates putting in an appearance, and the proceedings being marked with great en- thusiasm. A public reception was given in the after- noon to GOO delegates by Alderman and Mrs Charles Evans. It had been feared that the President for the year (trie H-ev. W. Davis, Llandilo) would not have sufficiently recover- ed from his recent severe illness to attend. These fears, however, happily proved ground- less, Mr Davis being among the earliest ar- rivals. Two great crowdcd public meetings were held in the evening. Mr Richard Williams, Liverpool, presided over the first of these at Soar, when Mrs J. J. Jones, formerly of Pwllheli, delivered a striking address on the "Claims of Children upon the Church." This, she said, was the children's century. The South African war had helped to make it so by awakening the country to the threatening danger of national degeneration m physique. Systematic steps were now being taken to avert this danger by greater care for the children. Mothers were being trained in their duty, and medical experts watched over the children during their school life. Alcoholism having been proved to be a cause of physical degeneration,the Legislature had passed the children's charter, and th-3 Board of Education had introduced temper- ance teaching into the schools. It was the bounden duty of every citizen to see that neither of these was allowed to become a dead letter. The rwv. LJew. Williams, Nevin, spoke on the temptations which assailed young men on leaving home, and on the value of total abstinenoe as a protection against such temp- tations. BOLD ATTACK ON RURAL CUS- TOMS. The Rev. Griffith Jones, Llancdi, in a vigorous speech, boldly attacked certain rural customs still favoured by chapel members and officers. Agricultural labourers, he said. had been more neglected than any class of work- ing men. So pitiful was their condition that if alcoholic drinks could be proved to be neoesGary, or even helpful to them, he, al- though a minister of the gospel, would not forbid their use. But experience proved that alcohol neither quenched the thirst nor sus- tained nature, but undermined the physical constitution and weakened the will power. And yet members of Christian Churches, by giving free beer at harvest time, helped to create a craving for drink, which often trans- formed healthy country lads into the dregs of town slumdom. THE CHURCH AND SPECULATION IN FUTURES. At the eccond meeting, with Mr Thomas Jones, Pontycymer, in the chair, the Rev. Ellis Jones, Bangor, in a review of the tem- perance movement in Wales, recalled the in- teresting fact that the movement was first initiated at Bangor in 1835, just seventy-five years ago; and what a change had oome over sexual customs and public opinion during that period! But, much remained to be done. Church members who condemned the use of alcoholic drinks themselves still used so-called medicinal mixtures containing alcohoL These, too, must be banished if they were to be con- sistent. lie entered into a vigorous defence of games and athletics, deprecating the ultra- Puritanism which forbade the enjoyment of these to Church members. Such games were powerful weapons which the Church had too long allowed to remain in the hands of Philis- tines, and of which she should now possess herself. What sin was there in a game of football rationally played? The Church neg- lee ted its duty when it furnished the youth I with no counter attraction to the tavern kitchen and provided the agricultural labour- er with no better resting place during scanty leisure than a cold, bare, comfortless stable loft. The establishment of a Village Hall ought to be one of the first cares of every rural church. Why could not the Church emulate financiers and speculate in futures? The Lord Himself had ordered the prophet to do 00, bidding him purchase the field of Anathoth while the land was yet in the hands of the enemy. If the Church to-day possessed faith in God, let it also speculate in futures, possess itealf of what the enemy held, and make provision for the future of its youth. It would prove an excellent paying invest- ment. Mr Lloyd George, in his Budget, was helping the temperanoe movement. Let the three powers of Home and Church and State co-operate, and they would soon possess the land. At the c.o&e of both meetings resolutions were passed congratulating the Government on passing the Budget, which imposed a more just scale of taxation on the liquor kade, expressed gratification at the continued reduction in the number of licences, and called upon the Government to reintroduoe the Licensing Bill of 1908, and particularly the provisions relating to Wales and Mon- mouthshire. PASTORS' STIPENDS. A PROVIDENT SCHEME.

Mr Howois, Council Scol. Treorchy, in in- troducing the matter, said that the scheme roughly <AK ined at la.st year's conference for improving this kuneintab oc-ridition of bhirugs had met with a really gratifyung reception. The largor and richer county associations and to which they would have to leek for the buik of the contributions, if the saheme were pant in operation, were its mo.>t, ardent advo- cates. The standard now arrived at^ a mini- mum etiipend of £ 30, was a low one. Mr Jo-sizrh Thomai, Peconding the proposal that tune meeting approve erf prin- ciple of the scheme, said he real-iecd that the whole question wac. encompassed by difficulties, and that they must car of uiy oount the coot of the scheme before liauiiclhrng a, Groat as were the difficulties they were not unfru'Tnountable.

LLANRWST MA.YS VISIT TO YORK. AN ACCOUNT OF THE VOYAGE. Mr John Roberts, Park V.iew, Denbigh-street, who left Liverpool or. Saturday, Ju!y 2nd, by tlie "Mauretarua" ou a visit to New York, writes an interesting account of his voyagia. After referring to tlle accommodation provjded on board the "Maurc.-ania which on tin oooa, suon carried some 2500 i>assengere, he says:- "What makes an mdev.ii>.e impression upon the mmd is the fact th&t all are some- where;" all are active and energetic and look- ing forward to their arrival at some sphere in which they may find happiness. There are seve- ral here with merry, buoyant iioarts and spirits, full of courage and enthusiasm, ttiey are going to make themselves great. There are others revealing evidences of sad recollections, with eyes that look into tlie past more than into the future." Turning to Welsh.
