[THE BATTALION. I
THE BATTALION. I Let us hopeSwan-,eq, will make a big day of it when the Swansea Battalion unit comes home bearing the Colours. If there is no time to make an ambitious ceremonial of it, it were better far to make a formal reception now, and then go on with arrangements to cele- brate the event with the dignity and the eclat the occasion warrants. But, with a will, there is plenty of I time before Monday. It is a big event-too big to be dismissed with a little ceremony, The Colours of the 14th Welsh (with those of the 6th) ought to be Swansea's proudest possessions. They symbolise great deeds and r great sacrifices. They remind us of mournful but proud days in France —of the forest of Mametz, of Aveluy Wood and the crossing Jf the Ancre, of the Selle River, and Normal Forest. Every school-child in Swansea should see the home coming of the Colours. It should be a day to fasten upon the im- agination of school children, and their elders. Swansea generally is equal to the event. Sometimes however it thinks of its duty too late. Let us see to it that when the Colours come home, we are worthy of that strip of silk so charged with meaning to us.
THE WAR MUSEUM.I
THE WAR MUSEUM. I Councillor Milbourne Williams did good service to the Swansea War Museum yesterday by sug ge-sting that the organisation of thv collection should be placed in the hands of naval and military men who were expert in knowledge of the implements of war. The danger of a promiscuous collection, gathered together anyhow, is that 7t would threaten to develop into a rubbish heap of no particular in- terest to anybody. But a Museum intelligently organised, that is, with informed and directing minds plan ning it throughout, will be of very great value and interest. The cL>1. lection will, of course, keep the war associations of Swansea fore- most, and in the hands of compe- tent organisers local and general in- terests will be maintained. The War Museum Committer had a kind of white elephant upon its hands in the shape of a. German aeroplane donated to the Mayor by the War Trophies Committee. It will be quite impossible to give it house room, so the Open Spaces Committee is to be asked to follow the precedent set in London, and rr> place the aeroplane upon view in one of the parks, preferably Cwm donkin. Thousands of people havp never had a close view of one of these vessels of the air, and we hop the Open Spaces Committee will be able to make the necessary arrange ments to have this war trophy placed on exhibition in the park for the summer. Its subsequent dis posal can well be left an open ques- tion. We trust the residents of the town are mindful of the Mayor's ap peRl for gifts towards the Swansea collection, more especially upon tho literary side. Posters, handbills, and all rorts of printed matter-ha c mg local or Welsh associations will be welcomed by Mr. "Rhys Phillips who has taken charge of this work Letters will be valued gifts; and I there are hundreds of people who possess letters from Swansea sailors and soldiers giving descriptictas of I war episodes. As the years roll on I¡' such letters will grow in import- ance. What would we not give, to- dry, for a collection of the letters of the men who fought in the Pen insula and in France with Welling- ton ?
TOWN TALK. I -
TOWN TALK. t ————'<"———— A defendant at Neath Police Court on'' Monday was named Penny. And the wit- ness was a copper 1 ness was a copper A Cardiff contemporary trotted out our old stager of the Fume over Fiume, on Saturday morning. -:0:- Another hat trick at eath. A cer- tain cricketer returned home minus his new straw brimmer. It was pinched! —i«- Castor oil is going up again, but that won't worry the youngsters. It's when the castor oil is going down that they don't like it! 0: A collier confessed at Neath on Monday- that he couldn't keep a wife on £4 a week.; We once beard a millionaire make the same confession! 1 The Feeble Minded Committee at Neath, Oil Monday decided to make extensions. 'Spose they'll exclaim, when they reach. the Drymma, Up here you want it! -:0:- A Swansea man who has made several trips to Devonshire but only one by boot. wants to know if people who cross the sea by aeroplane suffer from mal de mer. Can any of our readers oblige? -:0:- Signs of the times. -Children are be- ginning to paddle on the beach, ind Monday's "dippers" were much more numerous than on any other day this year. They didn't stay in long, though.. Incongruity indeed I Getting on to the Mumbles train, lightly dressed, with bathing costume over shoulder, out for fresh air and an enlivening dip, and carrying a book on-" Degenerate Ger- many. — A t-» It is now announced that for the first time women will this year be eligible to shoot for the King's Prize at the Bisley meeting, the contest being open to all who are serving or who have served in his Majesty'6 forces. — :0:— Police Court proceedings often have their humorous moments. An old lady, a defendant in an assault case on Monday, after an umpteen minute speeoh, remarked that she was an old woman, and could not talk much"! -:0:- The Rev. John Ellis, Grovesend, an uncle of ITedd Wyn,' the Welsh poet, has turned collier, thus following in the I footsteps of the Rev. Lemuel Jones, ex- pastor of Goppa, Pontardulais, and now of Salem. Llandilo. — ro:— Llandovery Board of Guardians will, on the motion of Mr. William Thomas, Caio,, at their next meeting debate the principle of co-option of members. And this at the approach of the dog days is not likely to command a large attendance. —: o: — "Whither gceafc, old boT?" — "Oh, I'm soins down to hear Hoffmann tell- ing the tale. Coming? "—This was the way a young fellow informed another yesterday evening that he was going to hear" The Tales of Hoffmann." -.0, The important discovery has jnst been luade that the food value of properly made sweets is tremendous. We know of some grown up people who found it out in their very earliest days, and have etuck to the toothsome food ever since — :0 Mr. Tom Merrells is about to go to uondon to buy twelve motor bikes for | the Surveyor's department, and the Town Clerk is among the volunteers to no up to ride one of them back. We can till the other saddles if volunteers Ino desired. -:0:- An Ammanford advocate at the court on Monday stated that farmers' sons had usually a very big kidney, meaning that they had an infbtt'<:l opinion as to their rhts. Tliat statement may not te gener- ally accepted, but, whatever the size of their kidneys, it cannot be denied that they always have big pockets. -:0;- An expert says that those who imagine that because this is likely to be a pro- lific fruit year, fruit will be cheap, are bound to bo disappointed. Fruit-picking is done by casual labour, which is at least three times as costly as it was five yearn ago. That alone, apart from other considerations, will prevent fruit being cheap in the towns. -:0- Something unusual has occurred in official quarters. Aberavjpn's tank wa" due to arrive early in Juno. It has already reachod its destination. Dilly and Dally will have to hold an inquiry. In fairness to officialdom, it should be men- tioned that the captured German gun which was being dispatched imme- diately lat December has not arrived. -.4 W. Victory wall-paper has already ap- peared in the market, but it is now announced that a Victory carpet has been weaved in Bridgenorlh, Shropshire. It is at present displayed in London, and is a mase of doves and olive branches, arms and flogs, roses, thistles, and shamrock. It is stated to be beautiful in colour and design. But inasmuch as this carpet was weaved on the borders of Wales, we can- not conceive why the Welsh national emblem was left out of the design. — rO:— A SwanE iea. gentleman dropped into a public-house last night and askod for half-a-pint of bitter. He was told that he could not be serevd with it in tho public bar, but could have as much itS he liked in the saloon—where, of course, f the prices were higher. Seeing stout oil the shelves he said he would have a bottle of this instead, but the lady in charge informed him that the same con- dition applied as in the case of beer. What a pity the customer was not Mr. Victor Evans or Mr. Percy Arnold. —:o: — Why is it that whenever the opera visits Swansea a large number of people make it a habit to arri ve after the com- menceiiient ? Last evening the usual happened, and those who were comfort- ably seated and enjoying the 8ini11 were being continually interrupted Iy the late arrivals. It ought to be niado a rule not to admit anyone at&er 1 ho curtam rises. And another thing, tho majority of people go to the tbeatre to hear the artistes and orchestra, who Go not require any assistance from those who make themselves a nuisance by humming the popular tunes. -:0:- Some people think that industrial nn- rest is quite a modern invovaX1Qn. But it is nothing of the sort. In a Midland Railway carriage last night one of the occupants read a cutting from a century- old West of England nows|^pcr, which stated that in a certain centra of South Wales great disorder prevailed OIl ac- count of some hundreds of men having stopped work. "Po as to oce.Tsion tlm stoppage of the work In some branche. and to threaten ev#n the extinction of the I blast furnaces." It i* good to think that we are no worse than our forefathers, at any rate. r

A4 I Sir,—1 feel sure the people of Swansea are gratified with the stand the "Cambria Daily Loader" is taking regarding our r.pen spaces, and your further remarks in your editorial columns in Friday's issue trompts me to write you. I was very pleased on Friday to see \Ir. Bliss and our local representatives having a look round" the Cwmbwrla district, and I sincerely hope that some- thing will now bo done to provide what is a crying need in this locality-un open --pace or playground for the children of Cwmbwrla. I can safely say, Sir, that ime of the biggest danger spots in Swan— ea to-day is that part of Cwmbwrla !>etween tho Gate llouse Hotel and f.ii),tntis Cliapel, and the wonder is that i here have been so few accidents at this -pot. I do not think that the provision of site should present any difficulty, as there j are plenty of spaces available .ud very conveniently situated. I feel sure I am expressing the general opinion of resi- dents of the Cwmbwrla district that they would feel indebted to you if you would ::indly give your assistance through the inedium of your valuable paper in getting a move en with the Parks Committee. I I do not think any part of Swansea has been so neglected in this respect as Cwm- bwrla, and ho:ng such a large industrial centre, it deserves better at the hands of our local authorities. In addition to an I open space, may I also suggest to the Parks Committee tho provision of seats at convenient places, where people can go and rest, instead of at present fitting on walls and standing at street corners.— Yours, etc., l May 26th. 1919.

I THE REAL POINT. I
I THE REAL POINT. I l As was to be expected, questions I were asked at the meeting of the [ Swansea Parliamentary Committee on Monday about the Blackpool ap- pointment; but we are afraid that the real point was m5sed. Tho bona.ndes of Mr. Heath in th? matter are beyond doubt; it 'M ludicrous even to think that he would have let the Council in com- II mittee go on with its discussion last Monday week had he the re- I In otest ideL that the position was I practically to have been filled thai day by the recommendation of thr Blackpool committee. The moral for the Crvmcil, or for some mem- bers of it, is to moderate their transports about the transcendent I merits of particular persons. Mr Heath might well pray to be de livered from such friends as those who passed, on the polite obser ration alleged to have been made by the visiting deputation about the blanked fools in Swansea who were so slow in their appreciation of ability. As a whole, we think we may repeat, after Ald. Powleslanri —with a variation—when he heard about this compliment to Swan I' sea, that there are not more of them to the square inch in th:-? town than elsewhere.
