PARADE OF SWANSEA NAVAL BRIGADE.. |I PARADE OF SWANSEA NAVAL BTZIGADF,. 0 1

I SWANSEA'S YOUNG HOPES. INaval Brigade at the Sports. If anyone loses their capacity for happi- ness, it is either a sign that they are out of health, or that the machinery of life has been corroded with jealousy—the greatest of all evils—until the whole mind has beeonic- warptd and unhealthy, ami it naturally pursues its course into the dark channels of discontent. To prevent others from drifting aimlessly down with the tide, the Commodore (Lieut. John Hed- gens) and all the oncers of the Naval Brigade are doing their utmost to en- i courage the growth of moral and physical character in the youths of our town who, strengthened by (his training, will a and achieve great things. It is only when a hoy realises the height he can nttain by self-control and steadfastly refrains from allowing the seed of envy and ill-will to take root in his nature that he can really succeed in life and win the respect of all. COURAGE AND COWARDICE. For everyone admires those who have a definite purpose in life, and always take but little beed of boasters who pretend to have the whole store of the world's know- ledge at their command, yet strangely enough contradict this by being unable to show any good results. Courage and cowardice too, are largely due to the train- ing received. Even those who are gener- ally acknowledged to be brave often con- fess to being conscious of a touch of cow- ardice in their disposition on certain occasions, whereas the timid often display a surprising amount of courage when it koJ kast expected. Tnerefore, whiln boys are shown how to art promptly in the emergencies of life, it cultivates bravery and gives them faith in their own capabilities. Those, however, who never act nn their own initiative are the one,; who falter and fail because thev have not an idea of how to use the dormant power they possess. Physical exercise, fmch as Chief Petb Officer Ashbury, of the lost division boys, and Instructor Davies of the 2nd division, introduce on drill nights at headquarters, Wesley Schonlroor.i. are, indeed, valuable aids to health apart from being a very pretty sight to witness. Otffl SOLDIERS AND SAILORS. On Saturday afternoon the Swansea I Naval Brigade, acoompanied by Commo- dore-Lieutenant John Hodgens. Chief P.O. A.shburv, Instructors Brooks, Williams, and Davie>s, marched to the Cri-cket Feld. to contribute their item to the sports which had been arranged for the purpose of obtaining funds to open workshops for the sailors and soldiers who have been dis- abled in the present conflict. Everything passed off very successfully, and judging from the number of spectators present good results are likely to follow. JACK CORNWELL. In this never-to-be-forgotten age when kingdoms are threatened and millions have laid down their lives for their coun- try, the memory of this Y.C. boy hero, Jack Cornwell, stands out prominently as an example of unflinching duty. About a hundred youths of the Naval Brigade assembled on Sunday morning with their Commodore and officers to give a parade as a tribute to hi^s bravery. On the lim- I ber of the nine-pounder Admiralty gun sat two of the second division boys who had been commended for good conduct 1 t carrying a card bearing the name of Jack Cornwell. with a suitable inscription. The idea of honouring this young hero, whose years scarcely numbered more tharl theirs, appealed to the Naval Brigade youths, w ho regarded it.as a sacred duty. Yet probably many of them were unable to fully understand what it cost him to remain at his post until tha invisible fingers in the Great Bevond had finished weaving his crown of immortality Anchor's Weighed." I C.L.B. NOTES. I St. James' Training Corps has now lx<en [formed long enough to entitle its first members to their equipment, and the necessary papers have been forwarded to headquarters for a supply of tbeee equip- ments. So that all the lads may look alike when on parade, Captain Jones, the C.O.. told them lie would like them all to try and get khaki jerseys, to be worn with the equipment, which is comprised of t khaki hat and belt and a white haversack. All the lads' parents intend to, get the jerseys, and indeed I understand eomft have already procured them. These young C.L.B.-ites do their drills very commend- ably. and if they follow the example of the C.L.B. Company at St. James's—and this they appear to he doingthey should, in time, turn out a very smart training corps. Recruits are only accepted once a month. and as the youths attend the age-of 14 they are transferred to the C.L.B. Company. MORRISTON COMPANY BUSY. The lads of Morriston Company are I pitchijng'into their work with more vigour than ever, and parades are being held on Mondav. Th ursday, and Saturday nights., and also on Saturday afternoons.. The principal pai-ade is 1 eld on Th ursd-vv night, when the. lads are put t 11" vglt some stiff military drill, whilst they meet on Mondays for gymnasium and (n Satur- day nights for ambulance and shooting. The commanding officers of the company arranges football matches between the lads on Saturday afternoons. The youths or the Training Corps are also very keen on gym. and boxing. Cnpt. Davies is a great believer in the latter sport and en- courages the lads in it, as he is of opinion that it helps to cultivate manjiness and Unselfish principles amongst them. The members of both the C.L.B. Company and Training Corps re very enthusiastic C.L.B.-it?s, and Morriston is undoubtedly one of the finest companies in South Wales. Accompanied by its splendid band the company went for a route march the other night in charge of Staff-Sergt. Wil- liams, who is of great assistance to Capt. Davies in training.the lads. A POPULAR C.O. Much of the success of Morriston Com- pany can undoubtedly be attributed t? the enthusiasm of the lads (past and present), but the one who has worked the company' up to its present state of emciency is) r Capt. W. R. Davies, the present C.O. Capt. Davies has not had quite as long a C.L.B. career as one or two other local officers, but it has nevertheless been equally as valuable inasmuch that he has established, or rather worked up, at Mor- riston a company which is not only a credit to the local C.L B. Battalion but to the movement generally. Morriston Company was originally started by Dr. J. E. Hughes (late curate of St. David's, Morriston), and when Capt. Davies first became connected with the company he so at Dr. Hughes' request. A SPLENDID ATHLETE. Captain Davies is a splendid athlete, and wag for some time a member of the Y.M.C.A. Gymnasium Clu. He has a fine knowledge of ambulance work. and is giving the lads of his comany a thorough grounding in both these important branches of training. He always insists on regular and punctual attendance at Bible class and on parade, and sets a good example by always being present himself, unless illness prevents him, as was the eage last week. Captain Davies says that the assistance ho has received from the clergy at Morris- ton in invaluable, and 'too much praise cannot be given them as they have en- tered into the work with great energy and enthusiasm. NEW OFFICER FOR ST. LUKE'S. St. Luke's (Cwmbwr!a) Company has been working at a great disadvantage since Capt. Benham joined the Army, but the difficulty has now been solved—a new officer will shortly be gazetted and at- tached to the company. The prospective officer, Mr. R. T. Richards, of Robert- street, Mansolton, is an old C.L.B.-ite, and was, until a few years ago, a mem- ber of the same company in which he is shortly to be appointed an officer. He has a good knowledge of C.L.B. work, haying gone right through the ranks from private to staff-sergeant. GOOD PROSPECTS. There was a splendid muster at drill last Thursday evening, as the lads wished to give their new officer a right good re- ception. In the ranks of this company are to be fonnrl many very earnest C.L.B.-ite«, posse&siug the true C.L.B. spirit, and it is felt that with a little hard work during the next few months St. Luke's will have a first-class company, which will reflect great credit upon Cwm- bwrla. The bugle band i^ to he :e- started, and practices will be held on Monday nights. SIGNALLING COMPETITION. A signalling competition took plare the other evening; in which several of the lads of both the C.L.B., and Training Corps took part. Each 4ad eeem^d to have a goo i knowledge of handling th e flags, and tb6 competition proved very keen. Adjt. Williams acted as judge, and will give his adjudication tQ-IDornw (Thursday) evening, when the prices kindly given,bv Chaplain Thomas will I presented to the lads with highest marks Compliments to Pte. Penrose, of St. James's Company, on his success at tie sports last Saturday, when he won the 100 yards open race for members of the Swan- sea junior organisations. Forward."

LIGHTING ORDERS. I Restrictions and Regulations -in Swansea. Aid. Dan Jones (Chairman^ presided at a meetiug of the Swansea Watch Com- mittee on Tuesday afternoon. It was resolved to accept an offer of 2m. per day from the Glamorgau County Coun- cil in respect of each child received into the Swansea Detention Home under tht3 Children Act from the county area. A discussion took place over the lighting restrictions on a letter being read from. Mr. H. F. Hood, secretary of the Swansea Grocers' Association, asking, on behalf of the Association, for guidance in tha matter. The Chief Constable said the instruc- tions issued were as clear as they possibly could be. Mr. P. Molynenx: As clear as mud. The Chief Constable mentioned that 40,000 leaflets, setting forth the instruc- tions, had been distributed throughout the town. Complaint was made by Mr. Barclay Owen, AJd. Ben Jones, and Mr. D. J. Davies that there was a lack of uniformity about the way in which the restriction* were being carried out, Ald. Ben Jones re- mnrking" that it wag ddsable that a police inspector should go round and ad- vise the people what to do. He did not think the police should be allowed to bully the tradesmen. The Chief Constable: I do not allow that, but I know of no complaints. Aid. Ben Jones: I am prepared to give the number of the constable. The Chief Constable: I shall be glad to have it. INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC. Mr. D. J. Davies pointed out that in addition to the difficulty of subduing the lights, so as not to be seen on the outside, the public did not know when to Lower the lights. He Ftiggesied that the times after sunset be advertised weekly. Mr. Molyneux agreed. The Chairman remarked that after what was occurring in the country the order would hare to be carried out, although it was a difficult one, and he was sure the tradesmen themselves would like to show a lead in the matter by helping the Govern- ment. The Town Clerk: I d<m't think it is our duty to teach the people the law. Mr. D. J. Davies: That is an important point. Certain institutions, like churches and chapels, he proceeded, would have to conform to the law, and it would oost some of them scores of pounds for blinds, etc. J n a certain caie in which he was interested thev acted on the Chief Constable's advice, and got the approval of the police as to what they did in the matter. The Town Clerk: A wise thing to do. Aid. Devonald said it seemed to be a matter of opinion among the police as. to the proper way of subduing lights. It was resolved to again issue the light- ing instructions, and al so to advertise weekly the times for subduing or extin- guishing lights. The Chief Constable: No discussion like this was allowed in Cardiff. They fino them .£.5 right off the reel. The Chairman: I cannot agree with the Chief there, for there was a very hot dis- cussion in the Cardiff Citv Council. POLICE PAY.. In an application by the members of the force for an increase of pay, it was stated that a great deal of dissatiefaction existed in the force when comparisons were made with other forces in South Wales in this respect. In the interests of efficiency, the Chief Constable recommended the com- mittee to receive a deputation of the men. The matter was referred to the Sub- Watch-Committee.

BAN ON PLEASURE TRIPS. Further cases were heard at Bourne mouth on Tuesday against John Thomas Girwan Elliott, of Elliott Bros., Ltd., char-a-banc proprietors, for unlawfully u&ing motor spirit for chars-a-bancs on. seven days in September. Mr. Harold Tattersall, for the defence. saIW the cases were similar to one tried be- fore the Conway magistrates, in whiclu, there was an appeal pending. He asked the Bench to adjourn them pending the decision of the appeal, but the Bench re- fused. Laspector Sackley stated that trips were run up to and including September 11, when other summonses for using paraffin oil came before the court. The Bench fined defendant 306. in each case.
