LEDBURY POLICE. I WEDNESDAY. I Before Alderman Jobn Riley (in the chair), I Mr Spencer H Bickham, and Dr. M A Wood. APPLICATION. I Mr H W Orme (Messrs Russell and Co), applied for the temporary transfer of the license of the Wellington Inn, Colwall, frpm George Wadley to Albert William Howes, of the Foun- tain Inn, Westgate-street, Gloucester. UNGUARDED CHAFF-CUTTER. I Edward Pritchett, of Munsley Court, was 1 summoned for having a chaff eutter aad knives insufficiently fenced on May 23rd. Defendant pleaded not guilty. P.C. GrifSn said on the date named he visited defendant's farm and found the chaff-cutter being worked without a guitfd on the knives and fly-wheel. He was told that it was at Wargent's being repaired. He saw the chaff-eutter on February 6 last year in the same condition and was told the same thing then. Defendant: Who told you that ? P.C. Griffin The men. Defendant said the men had strict orders not to work the eutter without the cover. The cover was there at the time, and it was the men's fault that it was not on. William Gommery, in the employ of Mr Pritchett, said he was Working the chaff-cutter on May 23. They were pushed for time and did not trouble about it. The pin that held the cover on was broken, bat they could have fastened it on with wire and a nail if they had wanted. His employer had told him the cutter should not be worked without. a cover. By the Bench They had.the cover off one time to have it repaired, and Mr Pritchett told the men to be careful and not work the cutter without the cover on. The Qhairman (to defendant) You ought to have seen that this cover was on the eutter, and we shall have to ine you J31 and eosts. Defendant: It may be law, but it is not justice. D- LICE. William Bsadley, farmer, of Wallhilj, was summoned for keeping a dog without a license on April 16. Mr B A Watkins, local taxation oftcer, appeared to prosecute. Defendant pleaded guilty, bet said it was an oversight. P.S. Brierley said the dog was a black spaniel, and when- he spoke to defendant abowt the license he said he always forgot to get it when he wasrin Ledbury. It transpired the license had now been taken out. Fined 10s, with a warning to be more careful in future. Thomas Jones, of Wellington Heath, was summoned for a similar offence on the same date. Defendant's wife appeared. P.S. Brierley'proved the case. The dog was an Ai/edale terrier, for which no license had been taken out. Mrs Jones said her husband had been in South Wales and had been ill. Fined 10s an4 allowed a month for payment. Harry J Bafnham, late of Woedleigh-road, Ledbury, formerly Col.-Sergt.-Instructor ef the local Company of Territorials, now stationed at Portsmouth, was summoned for a like offence on the same date. Defendant did not appear. Mr Watkins said defendant was a Col.-Sergt. and was stationed at Tipperary at the time. When the matter was reported defendant took out two licenses in Ireland, but they did not held good in England, as in Ireland a license was only 2s and in England 7s 6d. Owing to a slight failure of the stamp on the license it rather appeared as if the licenses were issued on Maatch 7, and in one of the licenses the figure 1 had been erased in the endeavoar to show that the licenses had been applied for im Ireland before the date of detection. P.C. G Bayliss said in March last he called at defendant's residence in Woodleigh-road, and saw a dog, for which no license had been taken out. ■*> Supt. WJilliams said hereceivecfacorreepondence from the defendant. In the correspondence and the license the figure 1 had been erased before the figure 7. The correspondence was ptt in, and included a long letter from defendant. Mr Watkins said defendant had a chance of of settling the case up to May 15. There was no doubt defendant tried to mislead the authorities. The Chairman You should not say that. The Magistrates' Clerk (Mr C B Masefield): You accepted hie explanation in the first instance. Mr Watkins: Yes. Fined 10s including eosts. Mr Riley did not adjudicate in the license cases, Mr Bickham taking the chair. RECOVERY OF POSSESSION. Henry Dew, The Cloisters, Worcester-road, Ledbury, applied to recover possession of a cottage at Bradlow in the occupation of Mrs Bowkett. Applicant, and P.C.'s Holl and Bayliss gave the necessary evidence, and the Bench made an order, to give up possession in 21 days. w )7'

CLIB FOR LEDBURY LIBERALS. I r Old Drill Hall Taktn. t There has for some months been a rumour abroad to the effect that the official party of Ledbury Liberalism were possessed of the idea to rent the old Drill Hall in Church- street, Ledbury, to iierve as a club, and during the past few dafs the rumour has given place to fact. The Ledbury Liberal Association have decided to rent the old Drill Htall, and have been accepted as tenants by the overseers of Ledbtwv Urbai), Led bury Rural and Wellington Heath, in whose hands rests the ownership of the building, in trust for the ratepayers. It is proposed that the hall shall be the official home of Ledbury Liberalism, and the idea is to turn it into a kind of club, with reading room, skittle alley, air-rifle shootivg. range and other games. That the project will prove a popular one we have uot the slightest doubt, and the wonder to us is that both political parties have not gone in for something of the kind before. Another point to remember abots the Drill Hall is that it has always been considered as tile beat dancing floor in the town, and although no definite decision has as yet been arrived at with regard to running dances during the winter, still the idea is under consideration. The annual meeting of the Ledbury Liberal Association was recently held, for the purpose of electiag officers. Mr Andrew Warren was elected Chairman Mr J T Bray hon treasurer, and Mr Will Garney hon. secretary. Membership of the Ledbury Liberal As- sociation will carry with it membership of the new club, though participation in games, will, of course, entail some slight payment. It is proposed to have the whole building re- decorated, a work which we understand will shortly be put in hand. The new project has nothing to do with the existing Ledbury Women's Liberal As- sociation, which, as heretofore, will remain a separate organisation.

I WEEKLY MOTOR NOTES. One sometimes hears motorists say Fanny that lAchelin have given up racing." But there is a reascul for this retirement from the racing world, which every motonist wftl appreciate. To go back to the beginning, Michelin only wmt in for racing because there was something to learn from it. This was in the good old days before racing tyres were the monstrosities they are to-day. There was to learn that which would improve the quality of tyres for general purposes and as long as racing could be useful to Miehelin in that direction, just so long did Michelin continue to take part in races. That these lessons bore fruit was demonstrated by the conspicuous success achieved year after year by Michelin over all other competitors— and not only on the race-circuits but on the roads of the world at large, where motorists were finding out how great a difference lay as it lies to-day-between Miehelins and tyres of other makes. Eventually, however, there was nothing more to learn, from racing tests, to the ad- vantage of tyres for general purposes. Speed had so increased that it became necessary to build abnormal tyres, "faked" monstrosities which could stand terrific strain for four or five hundred miles but which could not, even under ordinary running conditions, do the greater distances which the tourist demands. Consequently Michelin retired from the race- track, well satisfied with the knowledge gained and with the emblems of victories achieved. Michelin left it to others to spend time and money in constructing racing freaks, and con- centrated upon the further improvement of tyres for use by the motoring public. The result is that Michelin Quality has gained a longer lead than ever and so confident are Michelin of the vast superiority of their tyres over all other makes that they are now pro- viding motorists with the means of comparing the work done by their Michelina with that of any other tyres they ma y fit. A postcard addressed to the Michelin Tyre Co. Ltd., at 81, Fulham-roa d, London, S. W., will bring a complimentary copy of this Record book by return. I BIBENDUM.

On Friday afternoon a nasty accident befell a Ledbury labourer named John Davis, of Common Garden, who was at the time employed on building operations in Bank Crescent for Messrs David Smith and Son, builders. He was at work with other men getting out the foundations for a new house to be built there, Davis using a shovel and another man a pick. Davis happened to bring his hand, back as the pick descended with the result tha he received the full force of the blow on the back of the hand, inflicting a very nasty wound and smashing the bone. He at once went to the Cottage Hospital, where the wound was dressed, and later in the evening Dr. McKean attended at the man's home and attended to the injury in more detail. Much sympathy is felt for the man, who has been out of work for some time, and only started working on Tuesday in last week, a few days before the injury.

PROPOSED FARM INSTITUTE AT LEOMINSTER. —A meeting of the Leominster branch of the North Herefordshire Farmers' Union was held at the Royal Oak Hotel on Friday last, the President, Mr J M Parry, being in the chair. Mr John Porter (County Organiser of Agricul- ture) attended and gave a statement of the proposed farm institue for Herefordshire. He said the Council had decided to go in for 100 acres of land with the institute. The Board of Agriculture would give them 5 acres of land along with the institute, the total cost of which would be £ 12,000. The cost of the institute would be a little over 15,000, and of that sum about £4,000 would be paid by the Board of Agriculture. The farm would cost 910,000. The total capital cost to the county would be £ 12,000. The annual maintenance of agricultual education to the county would be £ 2,000. There was nothing in the scheme that would bring it on the rates. The institute would take about 24 students. It was unanimously decided to support the scheme on the understanding that it did not mean a charge on the rates. Spectacles and Eyeglasses. We test the sight scientifically without any charge and supply the exact glasses necessary in well- fitting frames at very moderate prices. Spectacles from 2/6 per pair.

The Sunday School children's annual flower and toy service took place at the Parish Church, Ledbury, on Sunday last, when there was a large attendance of children and their parents and friends. The Rector (Rev F W Carnegy) conducted the service throughout. The procession of the children with their gifts round the church was particularly pretty and was headed by the pro- cessional cross carried by Mr Tainton. The choir boys, Sunday school children and others followed. Altogether 186 bunches of flowers, 150 toys and books, and 25s in money were given. The number of these gifts prove the popularity and the interest taken in the service by the children of the parish. The flowers were sent by the Rector to London on Monday morning to be distributed to inmates of the hospitals and to a very poor parish. The toys were also sent to a children's hospital in a very- poor part of London. It was one of the prettiest children's services that has ever been held in the church, and the Rector, in the course of his address, hoped the services would al ways be as successful as the last. Mr Hobro presided at the organ. J. W. STEPHENS, collector of FINE, ANTIQUE FURNITURE, China, Plate, etc. -26, Church Street, Hereford, Near Cathedral North Porch)
