I "UTES OF THE WEEK. 1 I
I "UTES OF THE WEEK. Last week the Haverfordwest Rural District Council decided to embark on an important housing scheme. Our only complaint is that so far as several parishes are concerned, the number of bouses pro- posed to be built is wholly inadequate, and no doubt it would have been better if the recommendations of the various parish councils bad been accepted in their entirety. It is curious how the scheme, com- mended to the support of the Council in the sympa- thetic but none the Jess business-like speech of Mr Vincent Johns, struck different members of the Council. The Rev. Henry Evans, who is generally supposed to be a Conservative in Imperial affairs, but who in social matters is a true Progressive- thought the scheme inadequate; certainly it was inadequate to meet the requirements of his own parish of Llangwm. Mr S. W. Dawkins, on the ottier hand, who is a Liberal, was much more qualified in his support. He was timorous lest the soh erne should "add another burden to the already overburdened ratepayers," and he thought a smaller scheme would be more suitable as an experiment. Sixty-six houses seem a large number when stated in the aggregate, but the Haverfordwest District Council covers an enormous area, having jurisdic- tion over nearly two-thirds of the county. The number of houses now proposed to be built average only aboat one house per pariah, so that the com- mitments are not heavy. In fact we see no reason why the Council should trouble itself about the financial liabilities. In many parishes in Pem- brokeshire the Local Government Board Inspector is convinced that houses can be built and let at an economic rent, and if there is a small prospective loss on others we have an official assurance that the State will take over all assets and liabilities in the course of the next few years. That pre-supposes, we imagine, a return of the present Liberal Govern- meat at the next election, but that is easy if all social reformers combine, and Disestablishment being out of the way there is no reason why the Rev. Henry Evans should not help. The District Council also had an interesting litt e discussion on their own virtues and failings. We will not make any invidious comparisons as to the relative efficiency of the different public boiies in the county. The immediate cause of the dis- cussion was the action of the Hook women road- menJers, which has at any rate the merit of having forced the Council to take action at last. Mr Vincent Johns asked if it was true that the road on which the women went out to work was Dot" repairable" by the District Council ? Neither the road along the .Beach, on which the women set to work, nor the road tiigher up through Freystrop, is "repairable" by the District Council. If either were any private ratepayer could take action against the District Council for neglect. We see no point in the Rev. H. Evans's statement that the women did not go out to repair the road which it was proposed the District Council should take over. Is it suggested that if the District Council had taken over the proposed new road the women would have gone out to mend a road along the Beach ? The women roadmenders knew that while a few days' work would make some impression on the pathway along the Beach it would make little or no impression on the road which the District Council have been asked and have refused for over twenty years to take over. Even now the Council, although stirred to action, refuse to do the right thing, which was to approve the plans and f return them to the County Main Roads Committee. As to the list of local subscribers, which the Council now desire, that has approximately at least been sent to the Council time and again, and if the Council is to gain a reputation for efficiency aud straight- forward dealing we are afraid it must redeem ita record so far at least as concerns this Hook-to- Freyatrop road. < w ? ? Another little matter on which there is room for increased efficiency is the steam rolling of the roads. The placing of loose metal on the roads is one of the most expensive systems that can be imagined. We have told the Council this for years; now they have proved from an actual experiment near Fishguard that it is so, and the road where metal is stcim rolled actually costs less money than the road over which the metal was allowed to lie loose. The other day Col. Lloyd, the able chairman of the Territorial Association, went on a visit to Lincolnshire, and discovered that there all the district roads were steam roHed and that it cost them much less money than the old stupid system which they have abandoned, but which is still maintained by most, if not all, the Rural District Councils of Pembrokeshire. The Neyland Council were agreeably surprised on Mooday evening to find that the Guarantee Society is paying up their late Clerk's deficiency straight away and that all conditions as to a prosecution are waived. This is a happy ending to business which threatened some trouble because under the circum- stances a prosecution would have been distasteful, and revelations in a public court as to the salaries paid the officials would not have placed the Neyland Council in a very favourable light.

LOCAL NEWS. Sealyham Terriers.-Mr Fred W. Lewis has just sold to Viscountess Gort the Sealvham terrier" Crusty," the property of Mr R. M. Howells, of City Road. G.W. Railway.— Wo would draw our readers' attention to the excursions run by thia company to Tenby for the races on January 14th and 15th, and to London on January 16th. See advt- Picton Castle.—The ancient customs con- nected with the celebration of Christmas that still exist at Picton Castle have beca so often recorded that they are generally vreJj-kuown throughout the county. The servaota: supper and dance on New Year's day was a great success. The children's party on the 2!)tll was well attended by the county families. The customary beef was distributed to the employees, and on Christmas Day the teachers and scholars of the Sunday School and the Slebech Church choir were entertained, and useful presents were given to all present. The evening was merrily spent in games, carol singing, Ac. There is no lIÚUZ that Christmas time as it is observed at Picton Castle helps largely towards further cementing the bonds of friendship which bind the employees to Sir Charles and Lady Philipps and their family. Tabernacle J uveniles.-A splendid enter- tainment was given by the Tabernacle Juveniles in the Tabernacle Schoolroom on Thursdky evening last. Rev E. N. Jones presided, and there was a large and appreciative audiencs who followed the various interesting items with the keenest invest. The first part of the programme opened witl. a pianoforte solo by Miss Violet Phillips, after whicto the Juveniles, conducted by the Rev. E. N. Jones, rendered a charmingly seasonable cantata A Christmas Vision." The principal characters in this were taken by the Misses Mary Williams, Lily Morgan, Master Albert Payne and Mr Eddie Jones, who made an ideal Santa Claus. The singing in this cantata was excellent and showed that the conductor had spared no effort to make it a success. The second part of the programme was as follows: Highland tling: Miss Dorothy Llewellin (encore); duet: Miss Jessie Davies and Clarice Owen; minuet: Miss Olwen Biddlecombe and Doris Hammond (encore) ending up with a very amusing sketch Better late than never," the characters being well maintained throughout by the Misses Violet Phillips, Lilla Payne, Elsie Evans, and Mr W. S. Noot. Miss Nano Devereux acted as accompanist with her usual ability. Bethlehem Tableaux at St. Martin's.—For some years past it has been the custom in many dioceses, but principally in London, to perform a series of tableaux illustrative of the Nativity and childhood of our Blessed Lord. Those who have had the spiritual care of children, and indeed of adults, kqpw that the appeal to the eye is often fraught with more consequence than mere oral teaching. A series of tableaux was held in the above Church Hall on Wednesday and Friday of last week, arranged by the Vicar and Mrs John Rogers, which would do credit to much larger parishes than S. Martin's. The grouping, lighting, dresses and pose were admirable. The children, who were almost entirely drawn from the poorer classes, showed a reverent and intelligent interest that was quite remarkable. The following is a list of the tableaux:—I. The annunciation; II. The visitation; III. The shepherds; IV. The nativity; V. The presentation VI. The adoration of nativity; V. 'If. The carpenter's shop VIII. Our Lord among the doctors IX. Final. Previous to the raising of the curtain the Vicar read an appropriate passage of scripture before each presentation, ard during the exposure suitable hymns were sung. Where all did so well it may seem a pity to single out anyone particularly, but in common justice mention should be made of the presentation of Our Lady by Edith Scourfield. The natural expression and pose of this young girl were simply wonderful. The Christus of Brooke Dickenson was delightful. It's all very well to write about these tableaux but they must be seen, and luckily every reader will have an opportunity of seeing them at H o'clock in S. Martin's Hall to-night for the last time. Master Leonard Lewis must be congratulated on his masterful hand- ling of the harmonium. The Vicar is fortunate in having so many talented children under his spiritual care.
