German Hatred of British.-Last week in the vicinity of our town a huge snake was found suspended from the branch of a tree, with its head crushed, f and near it were two twigs crossed, and a scrap of paper on which was written Gott starfe der British (God punish the British). We will have you yet.- "Kaiser Bill." Infants' School.—The following is H.M. Inspector's report of the school work received on June 28th 1915 :—* This is a wisely conducted, bright and cheerful Infants' School. Abundant opportunities are afforded the children of partaking in interesting and educa- tive occupations. Their games too are well supervised and organised. These 1 as well as the various methods and devices employed by the teachers in the successful teaching of the more formal lessons call for much activity and alertness in the pupils and help towards a healthy development of mind and body. They also account for the high state of efficiency of the Depart- ment. The Red Cross Concert.—On Friday evening last, at the Assembly Rooms, a concert for the benefit of the British, Belgian and Serbian Red Cross Societies, was held. The suggestion for the concert was given to the English Congregational Church by Miss J. R. Adams, Llys Meirion, which was heartily taken up by the Church, and arrange- ments were made to enlist the sympath- ies of the inhabitants of the town and visitors^ The following lady membeis dividing the town and selling tickets :— ø Miss J. R. Adams and Miss Snow, Mrs Kershaw and MrsFelstead, iVlrsGlandwr Morgan and Miss Wharton, Mrs Strong- man and Miss Roth well. On all hands the ladies were heartily received, and everything pointed to a full 'house.' Here it is but fair to state that the i work of the ticket.sellers was splendidly I supported by two of the artistes—The j Misses Hat greaves and Desmond-who sold tickets to visitors on the Parade. The chairman for the evening, lVI, T. W. Piggott, J.P., Fronaig, in his ad- dress, said be was very delighted to see such a crowded house. The cause for which the concert was held was a v;>ry noble one, and it was very praiseworthy of the English Congregational Chu "ch to organize the concert. Our Nil' :on and the Allies need all the support we can give them. Our brave soldiers are nobly doing their "little bit," giving themselves somewhere in France, and it was right and fitting we should do our part to do all we can to support them. The evening's programme was excel- lent, though he had to announce two disappointments, viz., Dr. Heath and Mr David Roberts (harpist), who were unable to put in an. appearance, but he was confident they were in for a treat (cheers). The following was the prograiiinie f God save the King duett, I heard a voice,' Misses Hargreaves and Desmond; song, Le pardon de Ploerme! Mons Camille Delmotte; song,'A gipsy maiden I,' Miss Madge Desmond; song, I An evening song,' Mr Ellis M. Evans; duett, I Misei-P, II Trovatore, Misses Hargreaves and Desmond song, Car- men/ Mons C. Delmotte; song, To the Dance,' Miss Bessie Hargreaves song, Le Barbier de Seville,' Mons Delmotte; duett, I Carinena,' Misses Hargreaves and Desmond; song, The sailor's grave,' Mr E. M. Evans; song, 4 Leg Noces de Jeannette,' Mons C. Delmotte pot pourri, the Royal Magnets God save the King.' It is no exaggeration to say that all the artistes were in fine form, their magnificent reception by the enthusias- tic audience proved this to the bUt. From the first item, when the Misses Hargreaves and Desmond, in their duett, I beard a voice,' brought down the bouse, to the pbt pourri of the Royal Magnets, the enthusiasm was unabated, Mons Camille Delmotte was accorded a fine reception, not merely because he was a Belgian refugee in our midst, but on account of his fine renderings. Mr Ellis M. Evans, as usual, was splendidly received, and as other artistes, gave encores. The first appearance of the Royal Magnets was the signal for a great outburst and a good augury for the season. The Pastor (Rev. W. Glandwr Mor- gan) in moving a vote of thanks to the artistes, who bad given their services gratuitously, said they were doing their bit for the country, and they did it magnificently. The Chairman, who had sent his son (Lieut. Piggott) to the front, bad just handed him (Mr Morgan) a scrap of paper," but he was not going to do with it what the German did with bis, but he would have pleasure to band it to the Red Cross. At this point a visitor (H.G.H.), who bad previously suggested a collection should be taken at the door, handed Mr Morgan C2, the audience cheered him to the echo. Mr Morgan, continuing, said "We bad as a nation come to our Calrary--Re(T Cross —a Bloody Cross, and every member of the nation would have to bear a share of the burden. Our men were giving themselves for us, we were doing a part of our bit this evening, but he trusted we should do all we could to support the Government to bring the, war to a suc- cessful issue."—Mr J. E. Strongman seconded the vote, which was carried with enthusiasm. Mr Jas. Kershaw (secretary) was ad- mirably supported in carrying out the arrangements of the concert by Messrs. J. E. Strongman, D. Walter Davies, Ellis Evans, Pugh Evans, Bert Strong- man, while Ceinwen Felstead, Lizzie Jones, Doris -Jones and -—- Arundale sold programmes. Mrs Wade Roberts, R.A.C.M., on this occasion, as on all occasions in connection with our chari- table concerts, rendered first class ser- vices by her accompaniments. The nett profits of the concert were 1?22, and this is being divided between I the three above mentioned societies. j The Royal Magnets —The Royal Magnets opened the season on Saturday night and were well received by a large audience.

The following from Barmoutb were sworn on 'thp Grand Jury Messrs Rhys Jones, Glanymor; E. D. Jones, M.A., ITafod; William Owen, Craigmynacb; Owen Williams, Aelydon; and Owen Parry, Kimberley House.
