TUE IMPORTANCE OF SEA POWER,— 1 rincipal Sir Harry Reiciiel deiivered a leoture tit the Powis liitll of the University College on Weùnesdav ih connection with the Nelson Anni- versary, on The Importance, of Søa Power and the part it has played in the present war. The Principal dealt, in the course of his lec- ture, with the nature of sea power, the advan- tages of sea ways over land roads, and he pointed out how the commerce of the world had gone to countries with sea boards. One of the chief elements that went to make up a sea power was a powerful navy which secured the safety 'of the commerce and the expenditure on which might be regarded as a kind of insurance or police l ate. No population had combined to such a remarkable degree ibe qualities of' tlw trader and the ruler as had Great Britain, who had also enjoyed in a unique degree the advantages of a maritime nation in being able to draw from its natural re serve-the mercantile marine-for its navy. In 1715 England became the mistress of the sea, and the Dutch as a maritime power disappeared for ever. France and Spain in alli- ance deprived England of her control of the sea for some time, but she regained her supremacy in time. The lecturer dealt with the great Napoleonic wars, the overthrow of the French Navy through the penetiative genius of Nelson and the growth of the British Xav)". He stated Ihat had not the Briti"h Navy been mobilised when war broke out Pans must have fallen and a knock out blow dealt at the French Army In conclusion the Principal paid a high tribute to the work of the Brjtisn mine-sweepers.

They had been educated to kitow thau two and two made tour, but they had not been educated to live. Diu the inoiner of to-day know all there was to know about the economy of food.' Another great prob- lem which must be tackled was housing, and he said, that ho was not. satisfied with per, cent, of the houses in Carnarvonshire, it was in the school where their chief work lay. Was it known that there were 3ctJ blind children in North Wales, tttl- iU per cent, of the children were dirty and i0 per cent, badly nourished, 'there were 246 deains from tuberculosis in Carnarvon- shire last year. ivr. Parry Hdwards also dealt with the purity campaign, and mentioned that 10 per cent., ot the population were infected with tiie terrible venereal disease which was the cause of a good deal of blindness and epilepsy. A scheme had been formulated in Carnarvonshire for the free treatment of the disease. The Mayor Ulr R. J. Williams), in a short addreSs, exhorted those present to exercise the greatest economy in foou, the shortage of which was not properly appreciated. Unless they exer- cised tare, the saciiheos of cur soldiers would be for naught. He a so urged them to join a War Savings Association, and suggested that one might be started in connection with the Brother- hood. Alluding to the piuiiy campaign, he re- gretted to hear that girls were going about the streets of Bangor singing obscene songs and swearing. lie hoped the offenders would be re- ported to the magistrates. Songs were rendered by Miss Peggy Robert s, who has a powerful mezzo soprano voice and em- ploys it wnh dramatic effcct, and Lieut. D.

Great crowds of men and women careering across the screen, with battles, murder and sudden Q^atih, with which the new eobciol of American pioducers seem ex- clusively ir.tet eisted, has ailready —to a great ex- tent—banished from the picture hou&» the simpler emotions UPOIl which every great art has been built.

It is juist a simple etory of a country girl, who answers the of "the ligihits of London," and after a somewhat bitter expenienc» retunns to her native village and her oourutry lover. jSloat- of tihe exteriors were taken in the neighbourhood of Corfe C-astle, in Dorset, a place of great historic association, which has Been immonfcaiised by so many cele- brated painters, and the photography is worthy of the beautiful natural settings.

TRIBUNAL APPEALS.—At a, sitting of the Ogwen Trtbunal at Bangor on Wednesday the National Service Representative (Lieut.

Mr Lloyd Williams informed the Tribunal that the conditions were precisely the same as when the two clerks were g iven exemption. Lieut. Archer asked whether a discharged soldier named Lewls Edwards could not do the work done by one of tne clerks, but it was stated that the depart- ment in which he was employed was dillerent to that of Outram and Davies. Mr Lloyd Williams stated that he had 14 fewer clerks than before the war. Both t ppeais were dismissed and the conditional exemption stands.

PICTUREDROME. I Pearl White is an established favourite with Pictuired'rome audiienoes, so "Annabel's Roma,nce," whidh featured her, and shown on Monday and the two following evenings, natur- aliy proved an acceptable film. A^ a week-ender there is "Unknown Power," in which the great Italian actai', Giovanni Spano, figures. "A Little Ray of Sunshine," the etaor picture for the initial half of next week, is certain to prove a potent draw as all films "n whidh Baby Marie Osborne appear have a oharm a'il tiheir own. During the rest of the week "Temptation," a fine drama, will be flhowri. There are three serials, Pearl of the Army," Wrho's Guilty?" and tihe "Voice on the Wire," running at the ^•"turedroma.
