> A PROFITABLE CLOSING DAY. KEEN BRASS BAND CONTEST. 'Hhe Eisteddfod oi 1910 came to a highly (suc- cessful close on Saturday with a brass band oon- test in the afternoon And a Welsh concert in the ovening. Ten bands entered but four only turned out, eo th-a.t the afternoon programme caane to an end 5^ the surprisingly early hour oi 3.30. The ■Blaina Lancaster, Ferndale, Irwell Bank, Good &ha.w, Gosiage's Soap Work. and Blaemgarw the absent organisations, the contest bonxg J^reforo left between Na.Ulo Vale, Wingates ^einperance, Perfection Soap Works, and ■fcoden's Motor Wa<gv>n Works bands. Notwith- faallding the defections; the very keenest interest vr.ae manifested in the result, more especially be- Jj^se the throe English bands had been under adjudication oi Lieut. Godfrey at the great r^le Vue brass bond contest a fortnight pre- ^Wmely. On that occasion the Fodein Band won honours with. the Perfection Soap Workers as runners-up Win gate's occupying an honour- able pjaoe further down the list. Both Foden Perfection were under the baton of Mr Win. **a-U:we!l, and it was generally expected that an J^ceedlingly close raoe would bo witnessed bo- these two again. f-leut George Miller, the famous bandmaster Of the Royal Marines, was the adjudtaator, and test piece was W-right and RoundTs Selection l0pu Weber A quick-stop competition took place at 12 noon. r"*3 bands starting from Victoria Buildings at the on of Gmerfield Road and Abergele Road -° the Eisteddfod Pavilion. As the weather Was again delightfully tino several thousands of S^etators were attracted to the line o £ march. The Nantlle organisation, led b; Mr A. Co wen, to turn out and they wore folk)wed by Wing-ates, Foden, and Perfection Work's bands ^^pectively. There was a material falling oil in the atten- dance at the Pavilion, very few of the higher- pricod seats being occupied, but the applause ao ^rded the oomtxrtitors as they suooeeded one another on the stage appeared to be as great in n ;e as when this house was fullest earlier in tibe wk. °°^GRATULATTONS TO THE GENERAL SECRETARY. Mr Dd. Gamble (chairman of the Colwyn Bay ^uiicil) pi-esided and accorded the bands- lnen and the auxBienoe generally a hearty wel- clame to Colwyn Bay. It was to the firoat num- bora ia wliich the people of Wales and England EQ4 attended the Eisteddfod meetings that the festival had turned out such a great success in Gvery way. The Archdruid had assured them On the previous day that the morning Goreedd "16 the most "brwdifrydig" he had attended for toany years (hear, hear) He was also glad to able to to announce that the prev-oua even Jollgs concert had left the committee in the happy Position ol having a surplus in. hand and wliat eVer would be made today would bo profit and Would be devoted to the needs oi the Eisteddfod Association and tlie town. He desired to conglratulate the ooaruiiittee upon the of their arrangementa and especially verv exoollemt and gesnaal General Seore- fueir verv exoollemt and gesnaal General Seore- tary (Mr T. R. Roberts) to whose exertions and lendid service the suooess or the festival was ap a large measure due (loud applause). Tho bands oame on in the following order: (1) ^■antJle, (2) Perfection Soap Works, (3) Wingate's ^■antJle, (2) Perfection Soap Works, (3) Wingate's Temperance, (4) Foden's. Lieut. Miller, who was aeooenpanied by Mr ^ohsi Williams, conductor of the EisbocfcDfod Choir, occupied a seat on an elevated platform in the middle of the Pavilion and had his back towards the stage, presumably so that he should Elut see which band was playing at a given time, tile order of staging being decided by lot and Announced to the audience on cards arranged by Llew Wynne on either side of the platform. All four baaide having finished thecr work, the spectators were allowed to fill the vacant front ftats in order that they oould better hear the a^judioator's remarks. THE BAND ADJUDIOATION. Before giving his decision Lieutenant Miller made one or two rather interesting observations about brass bands and their progress. There was a subject, he said, which had been troubling the brass band world for the last week or two. It "Was a sort of hardy perennial which cropped up a. few weeks before every big contest—laughter) -and was usually headed, "Ought military band- masters to judge brass band contests?" It put liim in mind of articles which appeared in news- Pa-pews on the subject of "Is life worth living?" The answer to that was that it depended very much upon the liver—(laughter),—and an the same way whether a military bandtenastar ought to judge a brass band competition depended Wry much on the bandmaster (hear, hear). Be- cause a man was a bandmsllier it did not entitle kim to be a judge of bands. Tho speaker was unable to proceed for some minutes owing- to t,he imp-atience of a section of the andienoe. When the noise had subsided he Tweait on to speak to the extent of the braes band movement in England. If any instance were needed, he observed, to show that England was A musical nation he would immediately podnt to brags bands. lie had already held up brass bands to the notice of some of the leading musicians of the country, and had invited) them to discuss brass bands not as musical curiosities but as worthy of serious artistic consideration. They had heard that afternoon FOUR MAGNIFICENT BANDS, a.nd the contest had been, a splendid one, but did it mark any real musical advance upon any oottteet that had. been held before? Ought not each of those annual meetings to be a sort of toile- stone by which they should measure them- fieWes, and compare the contests of 1910 with 1890 ? Speaking from years' experience, be did not think, though great progress had been made, that they, had moved with the times. Were they going to be satisfied with being* bet- tea- than any other nation, as he believed they "Were ? They should endeavour to effect an even greater improvement in their playing (hear, ear). He could not suggest any way of im- proving the tenor and basses, but there might be a great progress made bo far as the sopranos 'Were concerned (bear, hear). Proceeding to the adjudication, Lieutenant Miller dealt first with the playing of the Nantlle Vaie Band. The cornet solo, he said, 'was particularly clever, but the accompaniments "were not eo good as they might have been. The peformanoe "was lacking in ligh-b a.nd shade, but there were great possibilities for the band. Perfection Soap Works Band gave little oooa- Bion for fault-finding. The sixth movement was mot of the light oharacter, and the alto in the eadenza pact with a alight accident There were many points of excellence in the. playing of Win- fates Temperance Band. On the other hand, the soprano player was rather too predumawnt, and" the tempo left much to be desired in several cai>es. A splendid performance was given by F<xierrs Motor Waggon Works Band, and here, again, it v, as very hard to find fault. The cornet soloist, however, straining for effect held out one note rather too long, and flourished down tlie cadenza, without sense or i-easooi. Liberties were also taken with the time. The first prize- was awarded to Perfection Soap Works Band, the second to Fodsn's Motor Waggon Works. Band, and' the third to Wingates Temperance Band.

THE LAST CONCERT. PRESENTATION TO CHOIR CON- DUCTOR. An out-and-out Welsh programme was pre- sented at the last concert on Saturday even- ing. All the artistes and the items performed were VvVlsh, but the.re was a strong English element in the fine audience, and they were not the least demonstrative section -in a high- ly appreciative, though very impatient,, crowd. Dr. Emrys Jones, J.P:. Manchester, presid- c,d, and Llew Tegid conducted. The artistes were Mise Amy Evans, Miss Bessie Jones (harpist;, Miss Dilys Jones, Mr David Ellis, Mr David Evans, Mr James Sauvage, .and Ik-iniol Fyeha-n (elocutionist), with Wie Eistcddiod Choir, led by Mr John Willi arms, Carnarvon. Chief among all the items wexo a. number of folk-songs, arranged by Dr. J. Lloyd Wil- liams, and sung by the choir. Miss Dilys Jones, and Miss Amy Evans, and if the Welsh Folk-song Society wore to do nothing morre than help to bring these to light once more it would have abundantly justified its exist- ence. Tlie choir opened the list with two charming examples—"Caniad Pibau Mor- fydd" and "Ta a bo dan." Both wore delight- fully rendered, and the huge audience —there must have been close upon 9000 people pre- sent—cheered them to the echo. Pcot of them all, however, were two ooupleto-(a.) "Brouddwyd y Bardd,'J (b) "Yr ihe-n wr mwyn," and (a) "Suo-gan." (e\ "Yr hufen mOlym, it-n- by Miss Dilys Jones. H.ap- pily they could not have been better inter- preted, for Miss Dilys Jones' sympathetic voice, perfect enunciation., and facial expres- sion, served the desired purpose very effec- tively. The singing of the old ve- teran American-Welshman, Mr James Sauvage, was a revelation to some of us who had not heard him before. Tlat,a man of 65 years of age shouJd be able to produce so clean and tuneful a note was remarkable His singing of "Y bachgen dewr" was dramatic to a degree, aJid there was much of the skilled artist's work about hisenoore song, "Morgan yr Hafod." During an interval, Mr S. Glynne Jones, B.A. (chairman of tlie Music Committee), on behalf of the choir, presented Mr John Williams with a handsome leather dress-suit case, supplied by Mr John Homan, Con way- road. In doing so, he rem arbed that the marriage between the conductor and the choir had been cethebrsted upwards of twenty months ago, and notwithstanding all that had been said about "cyfcburaul y canu," that mon- stre had throughout the whole of that time been kept on the outward side of the door. The more they saw of and worked with Mr John Williams, the more they ajrpreciatod his abilities and personality—(applause),—and the spontaniety with which the presentation movement had oome into life was eloquent evidence of the very general and genuine re- gard in which he was field by all who had been under his baton in Colwyn Bay (applause). Mr Williams acknowledged the gift in a neat little speech, Llew Tegid bringing the pleasing little in- cident to a close with a clbamcteristic re- mark. "There never was a prettier compliment," said Llew, as ae in- spected the gift. "The Colwyn Bay people have presented him with a bag by way of a gentle hint that next time he oomee he should bring his ciotlies with him for a prolonged stay" (laughter). The Chairman sought to address the meet- ing, but the audience, many of whom were apparently anxious to catch tlneix trains, and yet hear the last of the musical items, were so impatient that Dr. Emrys Jones had re- course to making his message known through the medium of the press. Appended are the principal points in his sp-c-c-ch:-The spirit of complete satisfaction is the spirit of com- plete stagnation. In order to progress, we must be dissatisfied we must always and ever strive after tlie ideal, aye, and probably often after the unattainable. Still, we must press on for the highest goa1, even if we suffer defeat after defeat. Effort is the finest tonic towards achievement. The Celt lias the spirit of dissatisfaction and restLessness. He is overwhelmed with higih ideals; he simply fails by lacking in pertinacity and perseverance. My last word to you is: Let us curb our over-abundant gifts, and possihiJities-t any rate, let us ditect and focus them into action, action induced and supported by dodged determination. If we can accomplish this, then we shall not have to wait long be- fore we witness the dawn of a new era in the history of our beloved country. THE DAY'S TAKINGS. It was reported that tlie takings at. the gates during the afternoon amounted to .914.3, but this sum was swelled to .£413 by the con- cert proceeds.

■$ MR T. J. WILLIAMS' HOSPITALITY. OPEN HOUSE AT COED DERW. The Chancellor and Mrs Lloyd George accepted the invitation of Mr a.nd Mrs T. J. Williams to luncheon at Coed Derw, on Friday. The company included the Master of Ehba-nk (the Chief Liberal Whip), Sir J. Herbert Roberts, Bart., M.P. (chairman of the General Committee of the Colwyn Bay National Eisteddfod), Sir J. Prichard-Jones, Bart. (who presided tJlat day at one of the Eisteddfod meetings), Sir E. Vincent Evans (hon. secretary of the Nationil Eisteddfod Association), Mr W. Llewelyn Williams, M.P., and Mrs LJewelyn Williams, Mr J. Herbert Lewis, M.P. (Parliamentary Secre- tary of the Local Government Board), Miss Mary Davies (hon. secretary of the Welsh Folk-song Society), and the Rev. Dr. Hart- well Jones (a member of the Royal Commis- sion on Ancient Monument in Wales and Mon- mouthshire). After luncheon, the whole of the party and their host proceeded to the Eisteddfod Pavilion, where they were interested listen- ers to the magnificent competition between the made voice choirs. Tea was taken at Coed Derw, and the Chancellor and Mrs Lloyd George, and the whole party attended the splendid evening concert in the Eisteddfod Pavilion. During the visit, the paxtv were photo- graphed in the gvrounds of Coed Derw bv Mr 0 J. W. Thomas, and an excellent group. por- trait was the result. On Tuesday, Mr and Mrs Williams enter- tained Sir J. Herbert Roberts, Bart., M.P., Sir John Prichard- Jones, Bart., Sir March ant Williams, Sir E. Yincent Evaas, Mr John Morris (Liverpool), Mrs Mary Dayies, Mice Amy Preeoe, Miss Tassie Hartley, and Miss Maggie Williams, of Goleufryn, Pwllheli. We observed a very interesting photograph of the party in the "Manchester Guardian," on Wednesday. Sir J. Priohaard-Jones Bart., and Sir E. Vincent Evans were Mr and Mrs T. J. Wil- liams' guests during the Eisteddfod week. Coed Derw was an open hoase throughout the Eisteddfod week, and many old and young friends availed themselves of the gene- rous and "unconventional hospitaiity. The callers at Coed Derw during the memoraMe week represented all shades of W4q& life. The Chancellor and Mans Lloyd George and their distinguished friends, who weme lo-nd i-n expressing their thanks to Mr and Mi-s T. J. Williams for their truly Eisteddfodic recep- tion, greatly admired the chaxming- grounds of Coed Derw, with fiheix wealth of floral beauty. It will be remembered that when the Na- tional Eisteddfod was held at Denbigh, where he then resided, Mr T. J. WiHiams displayed the same spirit of hospitality, and that the fine arts exhibition which he kindly aJIowed to be held in Temple Bar warehouse wee visited by nearly six thousand people during tbpo weelu

THE ARTS AND CRAFTS EXHIBITION. AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS. Quietly and unobtrusively carried out, the work accomplished by the promoters of the ATts and CrafTta Exhibition in connectiLon with the National Eisteddfod ivas of the utmost vaiiluc, and the whole movement proved an unqualified success. Upwards of 4000 people walked through the room, and tlie committee win be in a. position to hand over a s/urplus, a fact which speaks very ,highly for the workers, having regard for tlie mrcwmstarHx*} under which the exhibition wan held. The distance of the G rl,' School from the Eistcddifod i>avilion and its out-of-the-way situation waturaJly affected the a-itendanca, and the result attained is therefore all the more sat- isfactory. A very popular and effective feature of the \v.eek were the conducted tours carried- c-ut by Mr C. E. Elcoek morning:, afternoon, and even- I ing. His explanatory remarks were necessar. iliy biaetf, but admirably liucid and intelligible. In this way Mr Elecck, who: wa.s the mainspring of the who If movement, helped in a very prac- tical manner to achieve the main object of the promoters, namely, the quickening of popular interest in art. He was well supported by Mr THE CHANCELLOR AT THE EISTEDDFOD.

Roberts for their -help in arranging the exhibits in the needlework sec- tion, and to Mr Harold Raihlxmc, LJandudno, who, by the way, exhibited t-c-ino very fine pic- tures, for very material asvistaneo in hanging and arranging the pictures in the competitive classes. It i.5 -very to note that not a single artiidb was either stolen or damaged duui-n^ the whole oo>uri>o of the exhibition, and when it is considered that articles to the value of £ 10,000 were on viev, in the loan section alone this fact should aitord the committee considerable satis- faction. The only disappointing feature of tho exhibi- tion wat3 the poor patronage accorded it by Col- wyn Baiy i-esidente. Strangers commented free- ly upon this fact.

Not the lea6t i-nterosl-ing of th-e many items in the woek^s prograjnme was the dinner given on Thursday evening, at the Metropde Hotel, by Sir John Prichard-Jones, Bart., to the bards and journalists in attendance at the Eisteddfod. Tho genial host was accompanied at the head of the table by the Archdruid, Sir J. Herbert Roberts, M.P., Mr J. Herbert Lewis, M.P., Mr Llewelyn Williams, M.P., Dr. G. Hart well Jones, Sir T. Marchant Williams, Mr L. J. Roberts, H.M.I., Gwynedd, and Cadva.n. Among others present were Sir Vinoent Evans, who performed the duties of M.C. with characteristic urbanity and tho- roughness; Llifon, Eos Dar, Elphin, Llew Tegid, Pedr Hir, Eifionydd, etc., the party numbering about sixty.

Mr y mynydd wedi crasu ac Addail. Pwdin Syr John. Piietai ffirwythydd a melynwy. kfal pinwydd a hufen. Geuled gwinog. Caws a bara. la. Ancwyn. Sir John gave his guests a warm welcome, and in the OOUTÐe of the evening he explained that his main object in arranging these "little meetings"—this was his third dinner of the kind-was to bring the two branches of literature and art together, and to cffect a happy understanding between those upon whom the success of the Eisteddfod very largely depended. In proposing success, to the Eisteddfod, Sir Marchant Williams paid a glowing tribute to the splndid manner in which the machin- ery of the iliwyn Bay Eisteddfod had been run, and heartily "congratulated Sir Herbert Roberts, as president of the Eisteddfod, upon the unqualified success of the festival. He also xeferr-ed to Llew Tegid's abilities as a conductor, and remarked that at one time he thought Mynvddog was the beet conductor the Eisteddfod had known, but now he would not like to say he was superior to Llew Tegid (loud applause). The Archdruid also was filling his high office with splendid skill and distinction (cheers). Sir J. Herbert Roberts gratefully acknow- ledged the tribute paid by Sir Marchant to the Eisteddfod management, and added that they valued the word of one who had been so faithful and true to the Eisteddfod. They had tried to carry out the Eisteddfod upon old national Imee. In conclusion, the hon. member expressed a hope that there would be a development in the National Eisteddfod of the future, which would give literature a far more prominent place in it than hitherto (hea.r, hear). Without saying anything in disparagement of music, he thought they should do all they could to bring about a revival in Welsh letters (cheers). Dyfed also responded in Welsh. "The Pooas" was proposed in a cAprfral speech by Mr J. Herbert Lewis, who, speak- ing with obvious sincerity, said the Press in this country practically occupied a supreme position, and the Eisteddfod in particular owed to newspaper men a great aad deep debt of gratitude, Mr J. Humphreys ("Daily Tost and Mer- cury"), and Mr Herbert Grover ("Daily- Mail") responded to the toast. Mail") responded to the toast. Llew Tegid proposed the host's taoast, and 'I referred to the invaluable services rendered by Sir John to the muse of Welsh (duca tion, to Welsh literature, and to the social uplifting of the people. The toast was musically honoured, Miss K. Cordelia Rhys singing some delightful peniUion, specially composed for the occa- sion, by the Arclidnrid, to harp accompani- ment suppJioed by Miss Bessie Jones, who also sang penilli-on at a later stage. Snr J. Pirich>ard)-J<mes responded briefly the proceedings terminating with "Hen Wlad fy Nhadau."

It EISTEDDFOD WORKERS. GENERAL CONGRATULATIONS. The delightful weather prevailing throughout the week without doubt helped materially to- the week without doubt helped materially to- wards the. ssuocess of the Eisteddfod, but while I fuliy acknowledging that, no word should be spared- in praise of the human element that counted so largely in the achievement. Rarely I has the "nationa.f" lacked enthusiastic workers on ite behalf, but it is questionable whether any body of men did more to ensaire its sweoess tbm those who in ajid out of season Laboured for the w0011-bûí.ng of tho Colwyn Bay festival. The pro- moters were exceptionally fortunate in their choice of officers. In Sir J. Herbert Roberts, M.P., they had an ideal EistecLUo;2, president, for he not only oontri bu tod hajidboinoly towards the funa but by his persona,! influence and ex- ample encouraged; his suibordinatee in a. highly com.rrBefnicbd.blo maTinet'. Since the Eisteddfod was first ioccted in the toiamne of the "Pioneer" over two years ago, &r Her.bort missed no op- portunity to i'Urthor the interests of the move- meait, and the faithful manner in which he atten- ded the numerous meetings throughout the week spoke of the very real oonoetrn, with which he regardiedl the whole proceedings. As the working "head" of the ogunisatioai Sir Herbert was most admirably supported by Mr James ArapViett wboeo untiring effort.-s, tact, and resourcefulness as ch^irmaji of the Executive Comjmtfcae reflect lasting credit upon him.

I Tuesday 6,300 3,700 Wednesday 3,000 2,900 Thursday 7,400 6,400 Friday 5,000 5.300 I Saturday 2,900 5.300 Totals 24,600 23,600 It wvll be ob--ttved that Thursday, when the Chancellor of the Exchequer was in attendance, produced the best returns. Mr Roberts main- tains that the attendance in the evening, when t,he "Messiah" was performed by the choir, practically represented the fullest house, because, though 7400 were admitted to the Eisteddfod sessions earlier in the day, a considerable pro- portion of that mimbcr were moving about, and never in the pavilion aid at one time. Of course, there are many even enthusiastic Eis- toddfodwyr who habitually waitk in and out of an Eisteddfod meeting whereas they wi 1 patiently "sit out" a concert of several hours duration. Tho average attendance a< each Eistodd-fod in-go was abou-t 5000, and at. the concepts about 4590, a .iri#TaLar fact proving th-e popularity of the conoerts. The total receipts from tickets were JE3434 113 6d This amount includes the "season"' ticket receipte ( £ 361) and the payments made at the entrance gates ( £ 3123 lis 6d).

R. Roberto, the general secretary, j pointed out that the surplus, amounting roughly to £ 500, compared favourably with the- profits madie by any Eisteddfod during the last. ten yeai-8. "Indeed, on the basis of a fair comparison," eaid "Aeaph," "we have almost if not quite made a record. Carnarvon, in 1906, produced the best figure* on paper— £ 1313—but if you come to analyse that you will find they hciJd ficarcety any advantage over us. We arc pay- ing over L1400 for our pavilion, but they paid only L661 for the use of the permanent pavil- ion and it? arrangement for the meetings. Then at Swansea, in 1907, there was a deficit of over £ 500. In 1908, at Llangollen, the sur- plus was £ 145, and they paid a trifle jess than we do for their pavilion, whereas ja-st year at London the profits amounted to £ 335, although they paid only L411 for the use of the Albert and Queen's HaSs. At Mountain Ash. in 1905, tho surplus was JElB 16a 8d. and at Rhyl in 1004 only £10 7b 6d. In 1903, at liaaeliy. they made practioaily tbe> same profit, £ 501, as we have, but there again tfy>v had the advantage of the use of a permanent building—the covea-ed market place. At Bangor in 1902 they did very weui. The -surpi-as there wae £ 737, but against fast we most put the fact that we pave £300 more in prise money than they did Merthyr, in 1901, made a profit Otf £ 91. and Liverpool in 1900. L400 5s 9.d. When the amount of the prizes? and the expense on the pavilion a± Colwyn Bay are taken in considera- tion I tiiink we may sav that our surplus is al- most if not altogether a record." Replying to a question in reference to the pavilion, Air Roberts said that far from having had any complaints about it he had nothing but rep-orts in its favour. "Some people i n- dieted ail sorts of extraordinary results if we buJt. our pavilion with an iron roof," he added, "but Mr Beji Davies, when I .?poke to him about the 2«mstio6 of the place, remarked to me: 'This is the very best piaoe I have ev-er been singing in for a temporqjy building. I think it is simply perfection.' In answer to another question the General Secretary said Rumours have b:<i> flying about that people -crowded' into the pavilion t iF esale on Wednesday without blit. while agree- ing that the appearajice of the crowd would lead one to believe that .the takings at the after- noon meeting on that day should ha.ve been Jargex, I cannot conceive how any individual could have got in without a ticket or a badge. We had a treble check upon every person admitted. In the first place a man would have to get through the gates at the entrance to the ground, then past the stewards at the pavilion doors, and again pa&t there in charge of the various seat sections inside the building. If a person succeeded in evading challenge at all three points all I can say is he dese-rvecf a seat free. RAILWAY PASSENGERS. Mr C. II. Noble, the statiomnas-ter, reports that 28,581 Eisteddfod paeeengers were dealt with at the Colwyn Bay railwav station during the week, an average of over 7000 a day. Seventy excursion trains were run up and down each day, and ahnost without exception they arrived and departed practically to tlie mir/ute t.imed. on the schedule. Mr Noble states he never experienced a more orderly crowd. The manner in which the train service was managed was praiseworthy to a degree, and Mr Stones (who represented the District Superin- tendent at the Raihvay Station), Mr Noble, and their staff are to be complimented upon their excellent work. POSTAL SERVICE. To the post office officials also a special mead of praise is dnre. The telegraphic service under the supervision of Mr Harrison, assistant super- intendent from the Chester Office, wae ex- ceptionable. A telegraph office was fixed on the ground, and the messages were swiftly borne, thenoe by oycfist messengers to the head office, where a sfcafT of eighteen special operators dead* with them expeditiously. A novel feature in- troduced was an Eisteddfod letter-box, and thait it was appreciated may be realised from the fact that 2550 letters and cards were cleca-ed from it during the four days. A telephone service was also provided on the ground.

— 4- « THE 1912 EISTEDDFOD. WREXHAM'S SUCCESSFUL PETITION. The joint annual meeting of the Gorscdd and National Eisteddfod Association was held at the English Congregational Chapel, Colwyn Bay, on Thursday evening, under the presidency of the Archdruid. Sir E. Vincent Evans, the secre- tary of the Eisteddfod Association, submitted his annual report. He gave a brief summary of the proceedings of last year's Eisteddfod, and referred to the liberality of the Eisteddfod officials in transferring half of the financial profit (£I75) to the banking account of the Society, as well as in allowing a farther amount of JS80 towards the publishing expenses. Sir Vincent, in his report, made brief references to the harmonious co-opera- tion of the Society and the Gorsedd, and the ex- cellent results which had been achieved in conse- quents. CONSIDERING THE PETITIONS. THE DELEGATES' ELOQUENT APPEALS. The Congregational Chapel was quite full of expectant people when the petitions of Bangor, Liverpool, and Wrexham, in reference to the in- vitation to bold the 1912 Eisteddfod, were under consideration. The Mayor (Mr H. C. Vincent), "CasteUfryn," "Llew Tegid," and Professor J. Morris Jones spoke on behalf of Bangor: the Mayor of Wrexham, the Lord Bishop of St. Asaph, Canon Davies, and another gentleman eulogised the claims of Wrexham: while the Mayor of Liverpool, supported by "Pedr Hir" and two other gentlemen, appeared for the "Met- ropolis of North Wales." The appeals of the delegates from the three towns were most eloquent, and the respective claims of the different towns wert. submitted to the meeting in a most effective manner. Includ- ing the members of both the Gorsedd and the Eisteddfod Socnety, there were present 96 who were entitled to vote, and after a brief interval, Sir Marchant Williams announced the result of the ballot as follows:—Wrexham, 54; Bangor, 24 and Liverpool 18.

SEQUEL TO PIT ACCIDENT ZAM-BUK HEALS LLANGOLLEN MAN S BAD LEG. Mr John R. Jones, collier, Cwmalis, Vron, Llangollen, writes:—"While working in the pit a lump of coal fell on my leg. The skin broke, and the place started to fester. I was so lame that I went to a doctor, who told me that I had had a very nasty blow, and I would have to be careful. The salve the doctor gave me didn't do much good; in fact, I was in pain all day kmg, and my leg swelled to an enormous &ize, while the skin all round was full of inflammation. I was unable to go to my work, and by the appear- ance of my leg some weeks after the acci- dent., it looked u though I should be a long time idle. "I decided, therefore, to give up doctor's treatment, and try Zam-Buk, wlrich I had heard was a splendid thing for sores. I soon found that Zam-Buk was just the thing I needed, for it brought out all the inflam- mation and pain, and stopped the festering. As I continued with this rare balm, the swelling went down, and I saw a new akin growing over the sore place. Soon Zam-Buk had completely healed the leg up, and I was able to go to my work again with the limb thwoughJy strong and healthy. Zam-Buk is grand stuff and no mistake."
