LLANELLY'S PROGRESS. - -.a.
LLANELLY'S PROGRESS. a The New Mayor and the Future of the Borough. The retiring: Mayor (Lady Howard) who presided over the statutory meeting of the Llanelly Borough Council, in pro- posing the election of Ald. D. James Daviess as Mayor, said no one had done more towh work than Aid. Davies, and when Llanelly was incorporated, his ser- vices on the committee really entitled him to be the hrst Mayor. But with-- great courtesy and forbearance he stood )wide to let another appointment be made. Aid, R. P. Thomae seconded the motion, which was 'unanimously agreed to. The new Mayor, having been invested with his robes and chain of office by Lady Howard, took the chair, and eaid it was just over 13 years gince he was appointed chairman of the governing body of LlaneHy, and he was very proud of the position. Somehow the appoint- ment of Mayor was a much more exalted office. Then they were a mere district; j now they were a town, and the chaijge marked the progress they had made. Having had experience of municipal government unr Incorporation for three years, he did not think there was one who would like to revert to the old regime. (Hear, hear). It was a subject of deep gratification to all of them that Llaneily had been leading, and that Lon- don boroughs and provincial boroughs had been following and co-operating in getting out of the muddle in connection with the Pensions Act. The 50,000 limit' was a dream of the future1, but it was not so far off as some euppoeed. It was not generally known, perhaps, that Llan, ally's application was already in for an extension of the borough boundaries, and when the war was over they would attain their ambition. It would nqt end there. for they aspired to be a county borough In spite of the war, there was one very important public enterprise proceeding, thanks to the a«sietanee of Lady Howard —the harbour training scheme, which was already an assured success. (Ap- plause). The Town Clerk (Mr. H. W. Spowart) announced that the Mayer had appointed Councillor Daniel Williams. J.P. as Deputy Mayor. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded Lady Howard for her services as Mayor.

BAPTIST UNION PRESIDENT.
BAPTIST UNION PRESIDENT. A Candid Sermon at Swansea. j ? If God had been consulted in 1914  there would have been no war," said the Rev, Thomas Phillips, president of the Baptist Union, in Mount Pleasant Bap- tist Church, Swansea, on Thursday even- ing. And," he added, if God were consulted now, the war would be over by the end of the week. God," he continued, has got nothing to do with this business, it comes because humanity said, We have nothing to do with Goo." In 1901 God passed through Wales, and an article in the" Times from a special representative who had come down to Wales remarked that though there was excitement and extravagances, It is strangely like the New Testament." But the people turned away, and because they turned away in 1904 we had the hell of 1914. The nation had turned its back on wor- ship—not in Wales, that was the glory of Waloo: but it had been shown that in some English cities, 80 per cent. of the population were outside the churches. Even Wales adopted the evile of England —tho "week-end" system, and the "oncer." People in the old days would travel 25 or 30 mil-es to attend divine service. Lloyd George's grandmother travelled 30 miles to communion. What was the good of boasting a noble ancestry if we lacked their moral strength? But what wondDr. that the people turned away! The church had given up the prayer meeting. You say you believe in God and in prayer, yet you are not at the prayer meeting! Can't you see the hypocricy of it P As a matter of fact, 75 per cent. of us don't believe in God. You think you believe in God, but do you be- lieve in God enough to sacrifice £10?H This war was helping us to get rid of conventionality. The only religion of the trenches was that of experience. With good form we could not face the realities of life. There is a lot of the German Emperor in every one of us," he proceeded. That is what we have to, conquer. You must not begin with your neighbour, but march right itito Berlin' Let me kill militarism and Prussianism in my own soul!"

SWANSEA OUTSNG CLUB1
SWANSEA OUTSNG CLUB 1 Vounded Soldiers Entertain,d at a Social" During the summer months the -wounded soldiers stationed in Swansea hospitals were conveyed to Gower and other places every 1 hursday afternoon, when weather permitted, by the members of the Wounded Soldiers Side-Car Outing Club. The Club met with much support and gratifying success, and the soldiers reluctantly gave in to a stoppage of the trip,3 when Swansea was visited by the incl-ernent weather. which set in pome weeks since. On Thursday afternoon about 50 soldiers: attended a social at the Grosvenor Hotel, College-street. Mr. Jack Williams pro sided. A splendid tea was greatly appre- j dated. The chairman, in a few happy remarks intimated that the gccial was the first of a series that would be given duri?s the i winter. Restated it was up to ev-erybody to support th club, and do all they could, either by rendering a contribution or by gifts. Both or either1 would be gladly received. All the men present had gone through a great ordeal, anu most of them had been badly maimed. They had been fighting no small enemy, and they had been up against men who had desecrated all human laws. All the men got by way of recognition they fully deserved; they could not do too much for them. (Ap- plause). He asked all interested to give their best support to the plub go that the wounded men might have an enjoyable time as often as post ibt«. Mr. Ivor L. Roberts proposed the toasti of the* King and the Royal Family, which was enthusiastically honoured. Mr. Evan Walters, R.A.M.. gave a pianoforte solo, whic. was much appre, 'h wa? much &ppre' dated. This wa<s followed by a nne sop- rano solo by Mi-M Maggie Edwards, anQ a violin solo by Master Barry. Mr. Twm Jones's comic songs were well received; as also were those rendered by Mr. Barry. n-tO accompanists were Mr. Evan Walters and Mrs. Barry. Mrs. Howells (of the Grosvenor), and Mrs. Stockwood provided the soldiers with smokes. Mr. Ollsen proposed a vote of thanks to all who had helped to make the social a success. This was seconded by Mr. Davies, and cordially assented to. The arrangements were ably carried out by I MT. H. C. Jenkins (the fifecrotary), to whom all donations should be sent.
ICARMARTHEN COUNCIL. I
CARMARTHEN COUNCIL. I Local Contributions to War Relief I Funds. At a statutory meeting of the Carmar- then Town Council on Thursday, Aid. J. Lewis was re-elected Mayor, on the motion of Aid. J. B. Arthur, seconded by Ald. L. D. Thomas. This will lie the sixth year ) for Mr. Lewis to fill the chair. In a review of last year's work, the Mayor said the aim of the Council had! been economy, and no works of import- ance had boan carried out. The water supply was very satisfactory last year, I owing largely to the constant rainfall, but he emphasised the need of providing another reservoir. Under the auspice ot the Mayor'6 War Relief Fund, since the comencement of the war, the magnificent total of £3.4.24 had been subscribed by the pihabitanfcs of Carmarthen and district. Out of this large sum,£4t13 lOS. 3d. had devoted to the relief of soldiers and sailors; S114 17s. to the Carmarthenshire'■ Red Cross F u nd; 4:262 15s. 2d. to the Prince of Wales Fund; tl65 to the Relief in Bel- gium Fund; ?189 18s. Id. to the Serbian Relief Fund. In addition to this, ootl- on various flag days realised SM9 19s. td. Subscriptions to the Carmarthen Soldiers' Welfare Fund totalled L347 19s. 3d., and to the Carmarthen Soldiers' Club, £356 (of which Sir Owen Philipps, M.P., gave £ 185). They were all very proud, he added, of what Carmarthen had do-to during the war. On the proposal of Mr. Oliver Jones, seconded by Mr. D. J. Davids, Alderman William Evans was re-elected Borough Sheriff. I ELECTRIC LIGHTING CONTRACT.

He had written to the' Yniseedwyn estate agent asking for aa- appointment on the ground in order to* arrive at some method to prevent further damage.
