GEORGE'S MOTiON, I What • rendered 'he meeting: an exceed- ingly important one, however, -was the con- sideration of the report of the committee appointed on May 24th, 1915—" on the motion of lfr. Williajn George,, brother of the Minister of to give effect to a re»solution then unanimously pl we lcoming a competent public inquiry under Government sanction into the condi- tion of all grades? of education in Wales; bnt nader present conditions the actual inquiry to be postponed until after tho completion of the war. and that mean- while the Goremment he appealed to not to infroduc? anr important or controver- sial matter affect ins 'he general work of the in+ermediate school 5YBterD." QUESTIONS FOR EDUCATIONAL I AUTHORITIES. l pursnance of that resolution thp com- mitter now reported upon methods to he adopted in order to brin<r hhe- matter to a he^d a.s t.o the scope of this inquiry. It wa« proposed fo consider entirely the pi-e- «M)t system of organisation of secondary and intermediate, 'xlucation in Wales, in- cluding 1t.. co-ordination with elementarj, technical, .university, and other fomw of education, acd to make su.j*gest"ions for- the reconstrwction of the exifstiojr organ i sation so as to conduce to the oo-ordination and the growth of il system whiC'h f:ba.l1 be characteristic nf the Wel^h nation. It wa." therefore proposed to sl1omit. f-o the various educational authorities the follow- ing qnestioiis:— (1) Wj1(d:hpr any amendment was con- sidered desirable in the condition and prefer of the Central Wb.h Board, and whether the time had now arrived for the institution of a TV^lsh auth^ritv vested with more resp^nsibihty as contrasted with fh- prf^ent fentralised powers of the Board of Education in reference to Parlia- mentary grants: (2) what qual.ificatjona. it any. are considered desirable m (a) the examination sv?tem. (h) the i:nsd;()n in vo?u? under the <ent.ra! Welsh Scheme and is the ^o-rdat'on of <?y3min???'tT and inspection adequate: (3) is the mstruftvon imparted by the secondary schools the most helpful prrssibl<\ having regard t,) the course of education through which children have already passed—the length of the pupils' stay at ttoe secondary school and the after careers of pupils5 If not, what improvements are suggested ? Is the present average length of stay of pupils in the secondary schools satisfactory. If not, what measures can be suggested either by modification of curricula, or otherwise, which would tend to length on such ;l,?; (t) whether ard what legisla- tion is desirable to make combination he- tween sc hools and the counties more easy, especially for the purposes, of technical education and (i-- lation nf TO PROMOTE LEGISLATION. I The report then proceeded to state that if, after a, reference to local authoritiess, there is found to b- a substantial measure of Agreement to the formation nf a National Council of Education for Wales, it is suggested that a conference be called representing authorities for secondary and elementary education in the Principality to consider the matter further with a view to taking united action and promoting legislation. The Vice-President moved a resolution in favour of submitting the scheme to all the various County bodies, and education authorities for their observations, and criticism" with a view to further consideration by a con- ference. Mr. E. T. John, M.P., seconded. In the course of the discussion that followed upon the report, Dr R. D. Chalke (Porth), who was one of the repre- sentatives of the teachers upon the Board, suggested the deletion of the paragraph in the report, which postponed the inquiry until after the war. The President oon-j¡Jc:2.0 the suggestion could not bo acted upon without notice of motion. ALTERED CIRCUMSTANCES. Dr. Chalke, however, pointed out the altered circumstances since the passing I of the resolution in ISli. He thought tlle matter was really important and urgent, and deserwd to fie dealt with by a public inquiry as soon as possihle, and, if noces- eary, before the end of the A-al-, we had already had over 2fI months of war. Several members concurred in this view, and hnpf?d )haf som?fhiTi? would be dc?o to cxppditf fhn inquiry, ?? there d,,7?-ne to in cl i of opinion in f)i he a of c,iiiiion ntimat?; it W'a derided to :n)?pt. the report in the form proposed, and to ask the various educational authorities to submit their observations uixm it in time for the annual mooting of the Centra l Welsh Board in November next. On the motion of Aid. S. N. Jones (Newport), seconded ay Mr. J. Powell (Wrexham), a vote of thanks passed to the committee for the services they had" tendered in preparing such an elaborate report. The Viee- President res-oonded. >! r. Trevor Owen, Swansea, was elected a. member of the Executive of the Board. Subsequently, Mr.. Trevor Owen ex- presse d a wish to retire from the repre- sentation of the Central Wel?h Board upon the Court of ("fnrernors of the Aber- ystwyth University College, • and proposed that Aid. W. H. Miles, Swansea, should be elected to take his plnce. This also was carried unanimously. Aid. Troljn,e ('ardiff) moved that steps be taken to zef the Government. if pos- sible, to appoint an inspector to sse that films placed before children in the various cinemas of the country were not. of a harmful natur". Mr. Ivor B. wynne. Swansea, was sup- porting the idea, when The President interposed, remarking that he was very reluctant to allow the .f){)ard to yo beyond its province, and he P-ery respectfully suggested that this was a. matter that local authorities and licensing authorities could deal with very much better. The subject then dmoned. .PUPILS' BATTALION SUGGESTED. I Mr. c. N. Jones urged that step; be taken to the boys of 18 from the intermediate schools of Wales who were joining the colours to be brought into one battalion or unit. He added Mr. Tr-i--ir Owen had suggested to him that steps should be fa ke-n- to th^gg boys into the 22nd Battalion of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. The President spoke svm pathetic ally of the suggejlion. and Mr. Trevor Owen added thai he had got the colonel to accept one hoy from his school this week. MATTER FOR WELSH MEMBERS, I Ultimately it was decided to leftve the I matter in the hands of Mr. E. T..John, i M.P., and the W&tsh mMdbfrs ?f Parlia- ment, in the hope that tbe:r would do Mmf- th;n to pr?duc? the d?sirMi p.?ert by d<?!- ing with the County Council and ?ariou? I governing bodies.

I CLEVER SCOUTS, j I I Swansea Youngsters' Gifts to Children -I Children's Friends. I A special muster cf Alexandra Boy Scouts. SL Nicholas' Cir{ Pioneers, and I Grosvenor Scouts from the Institute forl the Blind had important duties to per- form on- Thursday evening;, in the Ragged School, Swan-ea. Proceedings were intro- duced by Johnnie. aged about, six, the mascot of the Alexandra Troup. The Mayor (Alderman Tom Merre.lls) presided; others on the platform were the Rev. Percy Moss Weston, Messrs. J, S Gilchrist (of the Board of Trade), A. 1.V. Geinmil (chairman of the Swansea Boy Scout Association). Joseph Hall, Commandant Maggs (Swansea US.B.), and Mr. A. P. Higham (a vice- president of the Swansea Boy Scout Association)- The first business was the presentation to Mrs. Percy Moss Weston, by Mr. A. W. Gemmil. on behalf of the Scouts, of a work-box, inlaid with fretwork. There were musical selections by girls, and Indian club drill by the boys. The Major said that since taking office he had received letters. from his co-scholars of the Ragged I School in America, the Argen- tine Republic, China and Singapore. Referring to the fact that ho -was in school under Mr. Meager, he said that the secrot of Mr. Meager's success was that he had spent his life among boys and girls, and had always himself been a boy. Mr. Meager's Christianity was cheery, healthful and robust. The arm- chair (the work of the boys) they wera about to present to Mr. Meager was a credit to the Scoutmaster and to the boys, Tt was inore than a work of art; its grf'att value lay in the fact that it was j a wor k of love. Mr. Meager, as he sat down in the armchair, wa accorded fnU Scout Ij honours. Rising, he said that until quite recently he did not know for whom the chair was intended. The Scout movement there owed much to the late Mr. Gerald Eden, and to Scout- mnsterTowp. who had instructed the boys and fitted up a splendid worksltop. lIe would take the chair home, but bring it down for their annual meetings and other great occasions. Mr. A. W* Geinmil said there were now 17 troops in Swansea., and anything between 600 and 800 Sfjoirts. Most of tho seoutmajsters had joined the Colours, They wanted assistance in that direc- tion, althon?b he thought that with a i little supervision—not interference—tli9 hovs wm11d ? able to carry on. Mr. Geramil then presented the Mayor j with a little carved clock oa.se, the work of the boys. The Mayor, responding, mentioned that the boys had supplied each, week a certain weight of potatoes | for the R?d Cro<s Socierty. Mr. J()ph Hall, J P.. proposing j thanks to the Mayor, remarked that Mr. i Meager ?o?.ld alvaya be remembered as ] the children's friend. J The Scout. and Pioneers deonoTwstrated < iNliRt they would do in ca-se of a Zeppelin raid. Thanks were accorded to the instructor, and the boys and girls for then demon- stration.

FOR FOR v |More su.ffenng affiict men and women through f (/ faulty act!?n of the stomach, liver and j' bowels than from any other cau?e. The ? body loses energy and tone when the food we take does not nourish us fully, and it can- not nourish us fully when the stomach and liver have lost tone, and are unable to do | B their digestive duty as thoroughly as they I should. The appetite soon declines, and there |k is often pain before or after eating. Disagreeable flatulenceand water-brash, prostrating headaches, |ift biliousness, and costiveness of the bowels are ||l|s among other afflictions which are lIkely to follow. If you are feeling out of sorts and lack the V/2 wj vigour and vitality you once possessed, it may W be that your stomach and liver have lost tone » and strength. As a consequence, indigestion is 1 robbing you of the nourishment you should 1 derive from the food you eat. Let Mother Seigel's I Syrup help you to get well, as it has helped tens of 1 thousands of people who say they owe their glod health to the Syrup alone. By its gently but cer- M tain tonic action, it restores the stomach, lmr and J S bowels to a OW of healthy activity. and those JRN who take it derhe, ? a result of digesting their m? food perfectly, fresh stores of strength and vitality, a6?
