Dear Sill, I have analysed a sample Gallon of your "ALL BRIGHT ALE" received from you in Screw-Stoppered Flagons, and beg to hand you my Report. This is a moat inviting looking beverage, being absolutely free from all traces of turbidity, and, as its name implies, is bright to the last drop. The results of my analysis shew it to be a Light Bitter Beer of the very highest grade of purity, and in my opinion, is the product of Malt and Hops of first-class quality. The amount of Alcohol present renders it strictly a Light Ale, and its aroma and flavour are excellent. The characteristic bitter of the Hops being well in evidence it forms a most agreeable drink. There is not the slightest trace of any objectionable metallic substance present, and I consider it a very High-class Beer in every respect. Being sent out in Screw-Stoppered Flagons Its high aeration is preserved to perfection in consequence, and there is no chance of its suffering in condition. I consider it a distinct advance in Bottled Beers for Table use, and its high general excellence should command a ready sale. It really is a splendid sample of Beer, and I must congratulate you on its production. t am, dear Bin, Youn faithftny, GEORGE R. THOMPSON, Public Auutyat. DELICIOUS COFFEE.

¡ BEDWELLTY R?TRICT 1 COUNCIL. v- 1 COUNCit. ?: 4-e i  I MEASLES AND FATALISM, The ordinary raofttine1 of (ho rnpn. bers of tlio Bedwellty Urb'3n Council was held at New Tr,-degar (;11 Tuesday it which the members rree t wete: Messrs Edgar i)nvie«, J.P. (chairmar)), baRc Janes (vice-chair- ma! ), W. Baftou, J. Crew, S. Godwin, Evan Thomas, W. J. Davies, R. J. Jones, D. Jones, J. T))!u!t, with Mr T. J. Thomas (clerk), Mr Harris (de- puty clerk), Mr Dan H. Price (sur- veyor). Mr H. Hayea (accountant), and Mr F. Hynum, (sanitary in. spector). Before proceeding with the ordin- ary business the chairman referred to the death of Mrs James, the mother of Mr James, the collector of the Council. He moved a vote of con- dolence with the family in their be- reavement.—This was seconded by Mr S. Godwin and passed in silence. The medical officer, Dr Roberts, reported that during the last month there bad been notified 56 cases of measles in the Rbymney Valley and 16 in the Sirhowy Valley. The births I registered during the same period were—Rhymney Valley 60, Sirhowy Valley 2.5. The deaths were 22 and 9 in the respective valleys. He was also pleased to report that there was an appreciable decrease in the spread of measles in the Aberbargoed ward.— Mr R. J. Jones asked the medical officer whether some steps should not be taken to reduce the risks of measles by taking some measures in regard to the school children.—Dr Roberts said that the majority of cases were of children under school age. There was, he added, a fatalism in some parts of Wales that every child must have measles some time or another, and which was frequently met by the medical profession.—Mr R. J. Jones anked whether it was not possible that children of school age may be attend- ing school from homes where younger children were infected and the conse- quent possibilities of the spread of the disease. Dr Roberts replied that there was every possibility that such children had already gone through the trouble. There were some families who actually took their children into infeeted houses, so as to get the trouble over as soon as possible. It was stated that the de-hydration plant had been installed at the Black- wood Gas Works, and tar spraying on the roads would be proceeded with on the return of the dry weather. A committee who visited Cefn Forest to inspect the new roads at the Garden City, reported that one road was completed and portions of others. —The surveyor said he was given to understand the Welsh Garden City, Ltd., did not intend to kerb and channel opposite unbuilt sites.—The matter was deferred for the whole council to pay a visit a week Monday next. Mr R. J. Jones proposed that the deputy clerk take steps to obtain at the boat possible terms a supply of early potatoes for distribution among the people of the area, as Mr Harris bad said they had great difficulty in getting them at the Food Controller's price. They were buying them as seed, and potatoes were being sold in the area at 3d. per lb., which were never intended for seed.—Mr Evan Thomas seconded the motion, and said he did not believe there was a shortage.—The proposition, however, WRS defeated.—Mr R. J. Jones re- peated that potatoes were sold in Aberbargoed at 3d per lb. for eating purposes, potatoes which were too large to be called seed potatoes. He asked, therefore, would the Council institute proceedings against any per- sons, where satisfactory evidence could be produced to the clerk that they were contravening the law. If they could he would nove that notices be posted up in the area, letting people know where to lay in. formation and evidence of contraven- tion of the law in the sale of potatoes. —The clerk replied they could cer. tainly prosecute if satisfactory evi- dence were produced, and it was. resolved to ssue notices as suggested by Mr R J. Jones. The police reported certain boys who were alleged to have trespassed on allotments, and it was resolved to prosecute. It was also decided to circularise local farmers re the stray* ing of sheep on allotments. The clerk reported that the author- ities were pressing for further par. ticulars on their prospective Housing scheme and ether after-the-war work, on which they proposed to spend half- s-million.—Mr K. J. Jones moved, amid some hilarity, that they reply staling they were ihdv(rcising for an I nrchiteclural assistant—The clerk They know that."—The matter was Irt ferrfd to a committee. J In connection with N ttional Service it was decided, oo tbe motion of Mr- R J. J one?, to ask the cler k of the j Cad iff City Council for a copy of as to the substitution of labour. It was refolved, by a narrow ma- jority, to issue notices to the con- sumers of gas at Blackwood that it was the Council's intention to increase I the price of gas to 5/- per 1000 cubic feet. In accordance with notice, Coun. I W. Bufton moved that an assistant sanitary inspector be appointed. They only had one for the whole area, which had a population of over 32,000.—There was no seconder, and the motion was lost The clerk directed attention to what was described as the Fair View Death Trap."—The surveyor said that that was quite right. It was a private path and was very dangerous at the western end of the houses at Fair View. He understood that children got there.—On the motion of R. J." it wae 'decided to communicate with the owner, asking that the death trap be removed.

THE GELLIGAER SCHOOL I MANAGERS. -THE ANNUAL MEETING The annual meeting of the managers of the Gelligaer group of schools was hold at Hengoed on Monday, at which there were present: Messrs Sydney Jones (chairman), Bsn Hughes (vice- chairman), J. Jones (Fochriw), John Edwards, John Jones (Bargoed), H. Brown, D. Davies, L. Edwards, J. H. Charles, Mrs Davies, Aid.W.Williams, J.P., Rev D. Leyshon Evans, Harri Edwards, with Mr Frank T. James, clerk Mr 0. J. Samuel, deputy clerk Mr Bryn Davies, primary inspector Mr D Pagh Jones, county architect, and the attendance officers. Mr Sydney Jones said that being the annual meeting, he had great pleasure in moving that Councillor Hughes, last year's vice-chairman, be elected to the chair for the ensuing year.-Tiiis was seconded and adopted unanimously. On taking his seat, Mr Hughes thanked the managers for the honour thus conferred cpon him. He did not expect, to be able to fulfil the duties in the same efficient and re- markable manner as their late chair- man had done, but he hoped that each would give him the same ready sup- port as had been accorded his prede- cessor. He hoped that during his term of office peace would be deelared. It was a very irying time for all, but they hoped that the future would be much better. They were all aware of the enormous loss which was now being sustained by the iadifferent at- tendance at Bchools. If the ratepayers J generally only realised this loss he thought that the public generally would recognise the position and co- operate to minimise that loss. He thought that no effort or expense should be spared for the successful prosecution of this work'of attendance of children at school. He suggested that the Board of Education should take up the matter with the War Office in the case of the children of soldiers, as in many instances an iujustice was being done the children by the mothers during their absence, on active service, of the fathers. He moved a hearty vote of thanks to I Councillor Sydney Jones for his ser. vices during the put year.—Rev D. Leyahon Evans seconded and the vote I was carried. Mr Jones, in acknowledging the vote, said he had endeavoured to carry ont his duties as chairman to the beat of his ability. He was afraid, how- ever, that one fault of his was a tendency to rush the business of the meeting but they all realised that owing to a change in the train times, this could not be avoided when the I convenience of all the managers was considered. He fully endorsed ali that Mr Hughes had said regaiding the attendance problem. The question of the appointment of vice-chairman was next considered.— Mrs Davies moved the selection of the Rev D. Leyshon Evans, but that gentleman declined the position.—»Mr Sydney Jones moved the appointment of Mr J. H. Charles. He did not do soin opposition to Mr Leyshon Evans, bat as a matter of recognition for his regular attendance for Bedlinog,- This was seconded by Mr J. Jones .(Baegeed) and carried, Mr Charles thanking the members for the honour thus conferred upon him.
