Trimsaran Fatality.
Trimsaran Fatality. COLLIER'S SAD END. „. Mr. W. W. Brodie conducted an in- quest at Trimsaran Council Seliool-s on the body of John Williams (48), collier, residing at Danybanc, Waunyclun, Trimsaran, who died on Saturday as the result of injuries received whilst follow- ing his employment at the Trimsaran Collieries. Richard Lloyd, Troedyrhiw Cottage, Five Roads, rider at the Trimsaran Col- lieries, isaid he was in charge with the -spake which went down at 2 p.m. on August 22nd. It consisted of 10 coaches and a tram at the rear for the tools. Each coach held 10men, there being 100 mon in all. The men were waiting and got in at once. In three minutes witness shouted "Look out," which was the usual notice given that he was about to start. Witness then gave the signal to wind up. The journey started quietly. there being no jerk. It went 3 or 4 yds. at most, and when witness walked down he was told that someone had met with an. accident. Later on witness saw de- coasq who had been taken to the part- ing. At the place where deceased was the roof was about 1 ft. 6 ins. or 2 feet above the carriage. Witness thought de- ceased was on the eighth tram, at the place where the roof was lowest. I Rees John, 16, New Houses, Trim- saran, said he was head mechanic, and was awaiting the arrival of the spake in order to go up. The deceased was on the top seat of the eighth coach, and had plenty of time to settle himself comfort- ably before the journey started. Witness heard the rider call out "Look out" and I the reply "Right-ho." His (witness) opinion of the accident was that deceased must have in some way, come in contact with the roof. There were taller men than deceased in the carriage at the time. Wm. John Edwards, Pantyffynnon House. Trimsaran, said he was a fire-I man, and was in charge at the time. It,l was not his duty to tell the rider where to stop the spake to get the men in. He thought the height of the roof at the starting place was adequate, but it wo'j Id be advisable to increase tke height lower down. Dr. George Ligertwood, Trimsaran, stated that he first saw deceased at 2.15 on Friday, the 22nd. He then had a bad wound on the head, and was suffering from shock, due to the injury, this being, in his opinion the cause of death the fol- lowing day. The jury returned a verdict of "Acei- dental Death."
— .-._-Steelworks Relief Fund
— Steelworks Relief Fund SPLENDID WAR RECORD.  The employes of the Llanelly Steel Co. may well be proud of the Relief Fund which was formed on the outbreak of war for the benefit of the families and dependents of those who answered their country's call. The Fund enjoyed the regular support of all the men, the re- sult being that up to June last, no less a sum than t4,678 was received in week- tv subscriptions. How this money has been spent is shown in the balance sheet which has been duly certified by the auditors of the Company. Nearly P,3,000 has been distributed amcng the wives and families of the fighting men, and P,287 was subscribed to tL.e Prince of Wales fund, other charities benefiting to the extent of £ 421. There is still in hand a balance of £ P9(>, and there are still on the fund, 8 widows. one dependent who has lost his leg, ami 12 others who have not yet been demobilized. It is hoped that the fund be continued and used for the purport of relieving any workman in distress. The payments in- clude CI76 to the town relief fund, jE50 to the Red Cross Hospital, E26 to Stebonheath, £ 75 to Cross "Our Day," £ 20 Welsh F! Day, etc. We congratulate the commiU h- on their ex- cellent management of frn H'nnd.

Guy Thornton. ,........
Guy Thornton. SUCCESSFUL CAMPAIGN AT I LLANELLY. Capt. Guy Thornton, who is conducting the inter-denominational Christian Cam- paign in Moriah Church, has had a wide and much varied career. Not only has he travelled nearly all over the world, conducting meetings in four continents and over a thousand towns, but he is a well-known author. His books, "The Wowser"—a tale of a back-blocks mis- sioner; "With the Anzacs in Cairo," a story of his work when in Egypt among the hells and haslush dens of that great and wicked city; "My conversion from Agnosticism," etc., have had a wide and rapid sale. In person he is a tall upright man with an ascetic face crowned with a mass -of snow-white hair. His delivery is fluent and his voice can reach with ease each one of the ten thousand hearers to whom he has often spoken. Full of humour, he does not disdain to raise a laugh amongst his audience but almost invariably the laugh is succeeded by a hush as the speaker points the moral of his story. The meetings in Moriah have so far, despite the fine summer evenings, been well attended.- An audience of from nine hundred to a thousand men listened most attentively to his lecture last Sunday on "My experiences in the Hells of Cairo," as in a racy attractive manner the Cap- tain depicted his dangerous work amcng the foulest dens or the East; often when rescuing some drugged or doped soldier from robbery and perhaps worse, he had to use physical force to defend himself and an unconscious man from the at- tacks of the vile pimps that infest Cairo. The evening congregations at Moriah have increased night by night. In con- sequence of the interest aroused the Sunday meetings at 3 p.m. and 7.30 p.m. will be held in the Market Hall. On Sunday afternoon, Capt. Thornton will speak to men only on "A man's three greatest temptations," and in the even- ing on "How God speaks to Man." On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday night, the meetings will be held in Moriah, and on Tuesday he will speak on "My con- version from Infidelity to Christianity." To-night at 7.30 there will be a campaign meeting in Moriah when the subject will be "Is there a Hell ?"

Food Facts. -.-
Food Facts. I A Jam Famine. I There was a serious lack of jam last winter, but we are threatened with an actual jam famine in the coming winter, in spite of the fact that this year has I been a comparatively good year for fruit. The reason given is that owing to the low controlled prices fixed la. year, jam makers decided not to lay down large j stocks; nine leading firms preserving only 1,055 tons compared with 5,160 tons I the previous year. I Traders and "Maximum Price" Cards. I Tradesmen are no longer to be allowed to mark their goods "Government con- trolled price" or "Government fixed price," thus suggesting to customers I that the price named is authorised by the Government and cannot be departed from. The most glaring case of this sort ¡ at present is the marking of inferior English apples, worth no more than 4d. per lb., "Government controlled price, I 9d. per lb." Tea is the only article for which the Ministry ever fixed a price be- low which the shopkeeper was not al- lowed to sell. [ Winter Fuel and Food Problem. I In view of the fuel shortage: many I housewives arc wondering how next winter they are going to cook the house- hold's meals. It is a vexed problem. The Ministry of Food is fully alive to the I close relation between the coal scarcity and the cheap food problem. An ener- getic campaign is being opened by the National Kitchens' Department of the Food Ministry for the establishment of many more municipal kitchens and res- i taurants, industrial canteens and school canteens. I Tracking Profiteers. I The scheme for the administration of the Profiteering Act by the Board of Trade is now practically complete. Steps I have already been taken to form special investigation committees to inquire into I the present abnormal cost of production of such standard commodities as clothes, ¡ boots, hosiery, household utensils, furni- I ture, building materials, and house fit- tings, and to report as to what ought to be reasonable average prices. The com- mittees are being appointed in consulta- I tion with the representatives of the em- ployers and workpeople in the trades I concerned. The Milk Outlook. I Mr. McCurdy said on W ednesday that I. we must be prepared for a retail price of Is. per quart for milk throughout the i country next winter. He was afraid this J could not be avoided. A fair price to j the farmer was essential if the supply j was to be maintained. The Consumers' Council have passed a resolution viewing with alarm the suggestecl 'increase and urging on the Government the absolute necessity of taking steps forthwith to Ireep the price down to such a level as would enable the children of the poorer classes to have sufficient supplies. New Ration Card. The new ration card, to be issued in I place of the present book, will come into use about the middle of October. It will ¡ contain no coupons or spaces for mark- ing off purchases. Instead, the shop- keeper will record in whatever way he I likes the weekly sale of rationed articles to customers. I It is a plain card, recording the holder's name and address, and also those of his retailers of meat, butter, 1 and sugar. There are three counterfoils to be filled up, torn off, and handed to the shopkeepers, and also a spare j counterfoil for any other food that may be rationed subsequently. All the ¡ holders will have to retain is a thin card I about 4-J-in. square, warning "the house- wife that the retailers named on it can- not he changed without th6 consent of the local food office. The present Scale. I Under the existing scale of rations the I consumer is entitled to not less than 5d. worth of meat, 11 oz. of butter, and 12 I oz. of sugar weekly. Although full con- 1 trol of price, supply, and distribution of bacon has been resumed there is no in- tention at present to ration bacon, but prices may increase as winter advances.

I Llanelly ciielna. I There appears to be no limit to the en- terprise of the management of the Llan- elly Cinema, and for the first three days of next week commencing Monday, Sept. 1st, the manager, Mr. Ernest Career (who is becoming very popular among his patrons) has secured an enormous at- tractive programme. Special mention should be made of an interesting dramatic production, "Shoes that Danced," featur- ing Pauline Starks in a sympathetic role. A brisk, well-acted drama, which tells its own story in strong well-connected scenes. "She Loved Him Plenty" is a very fine Mac Sennett comedy. Episode 13 of "The Further Adventures of Stin- garee" is most interesting. For Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday, Priscilla Dean appears in "The Tow-Soul Woman," a magnificent dramatic photoplay in five parts. Eddie Polo is very exciting in the 10th episode of "The Circus King." 'The Adventures among the Cannibals, Part 3,' ih showing all the week. It takes the story right into the heart of Cannibaldom introducing a human skull house, as ex- traordinary a revelation of barbarism as can be imagined. Coming Monday, Sept. 8th-Charlie Chaplin in "Sunnyside."
