Davies. 4i fcinma street, a single man 27 of age, who had been passed Class A, had been granted condi- tional employment by the local Tribunal, and Mr. D. Jennings, as military repre- sentative, appealed against the decision. Mr. McAllister, of the Mwiydd Mawr t Railway Co., resisted the appeal, and said the man was the traffic foreman. It would require two or three years to train a substitute. Lieut. Ingrams: Your raen are not overworked, are they ? Witness: I don't kr.i\v your idea about a day's work, but our men wcrk from 14 to 15 days per day. We have even in- fluenced our men to join the Colours, but ■r now we are at the ctd of our resources. It has been said that it is the last straw which breaks camel's back, and this is our position now. We hcvse three large controlled collieries, and Davies is the only man L, L the trahic. The Chairman I suppose you must be training someone else to fill an im- portant position of this kind ? Witness: We only have boys now. We used to have one man but he Lot us to go and work on munitions. The military was dismissed. I Appeal Withdrawn. I Lieut. Tngrams appealed against the I temporary exemption granted hy the Rural Tribunal to John Thomas, Cwm- caereithyn farm, Llwynhendy. Mr. D. G. Rees represented the re- spondent, and rrs. Thomas said she had removed to Grovesend farm where she had a farm 110 acres in extent. Her husband was an invalid and her son was fully employed on the farm. One of her sons was staying on at Cwmeaerefthyn. ( Her two sons were away and they were colliers. Capt. C'remlyn: If the facts are as stated and I have no reason to doubt them, I must withdraw the appeal. A Handy Man. j TntI??.-cf ?. H. ?!1'??. u ? Kew Houses Trimsri'r.r.

Evan Jones, dii-ectoi- sail owiug to the scarcity of labour Williams, who was a colliory repairer, had to be brought from the pit to do other work. "He is the handiest man we have," added Mr. Joiic, "and I have never known him to decline to do any job." Mr. Dd. Evans This man being very useful I hope you pay him well. Mr. Jones: I pay all my mtn well; he gets paid better than I do (laughter). Some of my men earn Sl per day.

PARTY TRUCE IN LOCAL ELECTIONS. f The President of the Local Government Board, Mr. Hayes Fisher, has issued a letter to local authorities drawing at- tention to the statement made in the House of Commons by Mr. Walter Long, regarding vacancies on local authorities, that "vacancies must he filled hy men of the same party as the outgoing coun- cillors if they are party men, or, if they arc independent, hy men selected on those lines."

More Small Holding's.I
More Small Holding's. I To the Editur d the "Star." Sir, Britain will never be a great food pro- ducing country until its land system is changed. Instead of trying to get more acres under the plough, what is needed is more intensive and thorough cultiva- tion, and that can be best be obtained through smaller beddings and less large farms. What we want are peasant pro- prietors. The great blot on «the 1908 Small Holdings Act is that, under it, the small-holder was put in a position of buying the holding for the County Counci l instead of for himself. Next to cV~ ownership of the freehold more capi- t 1 is essential. You cannot cultivate the land successfully and having the maximum of produce out of it unless you have a capital of at least equivalent to twenty pounds per acre. Of course I know irery wetf illtat tirtgr cam farm some- how with capital less than that. But those days have passed, at least I hope so. There has been a great amount of talk—and talk is cheap-about, i-e- peopling the countryside and rebuilding the agricultural industry but that can- not be done unless ownership of small- holdings is granted. John Stuart Mill said: "Give a man the secure possession of a l'deak rock, and he will turn it into a garden; give a nine years' lease of a garden, and he will convert it into a desert. The magic of property turns sand to geld." Land and liberty, and not liberty and land. on cannot have liberty 'without la.nd. Back to the land first and the i back to the home—you '•auiiot have home without land. I am, etc., I Tnmsaran, T. E. DA YIES, I 12th Sept., 1917. E. DAA-IES.

Remarkable WarI Prophecy.I
Remarkable War Prophecy. DISCOVERY ON AN ISLAND IN THE BALTIC. The following translation of an article in a. Danish newspaper has been for- warded by a reader of the "Nottingham Guardian." At the breaking down of a wall in the Monastery of the Holy Ghost at Vismar (a, city on the island of Gotland, in the Baltic) a 200 year old propiiecy of the war has been found. The prophecy, which was written on parch- ment by a monk in the year 1701, is now kept in the Town Hall of Vismar. The manuscript reads :— "Europe will some day, when the seat of the Pope is vacant, meet with a fear- ful punishment. Seven nations will turn themsch-cs against a hird with two heads. The hird will defend itself with wings and talons. A monarch who al- ways mounts his horse from the wrong side shalt be surrounded hy a wall of foes. It will be a tough struggle against east and west, and the lives of many men shall be lost. "War chariots shall roll forward with- out horses, and fire-dragons shall fly through the sky and spew fire and sul- phur and destroy towns. Mankind will not listen to the foreboding of God, and He shall turn away from them. The war shaH last three years and five months. Starvation and disease will follow. "Bread will be controlled and distri- buted among the people. Men will be lurking at the bottom of the sea for their prey. The war will ,sta;-t when the corn is ripening in thefields, and reach its maximum pitch when the eherrv trees are blooming for the third time. Peace will bo obtained about Christmas."
SHOP HOURS PROSECUTION.
SHOP HOURS PROSECUTION. Amy Parish, 92, Station road, was prosecuted at the Police Court on Wed- nesday for not dosing her shop at the specified hour on August 30th, and Cicila Warlow, 107, Ann street, was summoned for aiding and abetting the defendant. P.C. Connick said that Mrs. Parish when charged replied: "The little bov came for an egg before eight o'clock, but he was a ha'penny short." Mrs. Warlow said that when she sent her son for the egg she did not know they were 3d. each. He depoiter1 2J(1., and witness called later for the egg. The Bench ordered Mrs. Parish to pay -o ■s. fid. towards the costs and the case against the defendant Warlow was dis- missed on payment of Is. towards the costs.
