Children's Corner. BY UNCLE JOHN The puzzle poetry-" We Met"—seems to have attracted a lot of attention, for other youn poets have to-day sent me in some verges on the same subject, and the letters. which came with the lines are quite cheering. Thank you—contributors and friends. David Jones, King Edward-road. Swansea, writes.— Dear Uncle John,—I thought before coming to Frank's Reply in last Right's leader that tho answer was the letter 'S.' After reading the verses, I wrote the following, with my Uncle William's help,— She's easy first' at Skewen, She doesn't like Landore, She never liked Cwmbwrla, Pembrey or Glanymor; She never visits Langland— She's struck on Caswell Bay,. She sometimes goes to Betfws Fair To spend a pleasant day." A VOICE FROM LLANSAMLET. T" i i,er lis now, tor a change, listen to a voice from Llansamlet Doris Jenkins (age 13), UpperPeniol Green.

EXHIBITS OF TWO FAMOUSI FIRMS NOW AMALGAMATED. At Stands 175 and 196 in the Tyre and Wheel Section on the Ground Floor An- nexe, are to be seen many interesting exhibits of the recently amalgamated firms of Wood-Milne Ltd. artd George Spencer, Moulton and Co., Ltd. Wood-Milne tyre exhibits include their well-known and exceptionally reliable Gruvrib St.cel-Stu{1dcd," and Square-Tread Covers, and their re- spective tubes; in use, these guarantee to the motorist the maximum of com- fort, mileage and econopiy. Then there is the Wood-Milne Foot Pump," designed of ^ours^ primarily, for the motorist's convenience. This Wood-Milne speciality has long been known as the Prince of Pumps "— be- ing a ifi-.st-eliss engineering job, its strength and efficiency are combined with a welcome simplicity in operation.

I PATRONAL FESTIVAL.
I PATRONAL FESTIVAL. Bishop of Swansea at Jude's. "I I There was a splendid attendance at St. I Jude's Church on luesday evening on the occasion of the Patronal Festival (SS. Simon and Jude), when the Bishop I i of Swansea was the preacher. The Vicar of Swansea (Rev. Harrington Lees), the Vicar of Morriston (Rev. Griffith. Thomas), and the Rev. Watkin Davies, Vicar of St. Jude's, took part In the service. The Vicar of Swansea admitted 11 ,-ev members to the St. Jude's Branch of -the Church of England Men's Society. Ono of the new members admitted was badly wounded at Y Beach in Gallipoh, and has recently returnod from the Archangel front. THE BISHOP. The Bishop based his disooltr upon the words Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a tima as this," from the Book of Esther. In speaking of the great deliverance of the Jews through the influence of Esther with the King ot Persia, the Bishop con- trasted this deliverance with the time of our great deliverance only twelve month* ago, and drew some important lessons for the present time. There were two dangers we had to face, said the Bishop, the first, that of taking our deliverance and our blessing as matters of course—v as our natural right. The country ex- pressed itself in a great outburst of reli- gious thankfulness in the November of 1918, but the people were gradually for- getting their duty. The second was that of accepting our blessings and for- getting why and how they came The armistice and peace had not brought us to the end of our troubles. The burden upon us as conquerers was almost un- bearable, but what would the burden have been had we been the vanquished. Wl- t right had we to expect that after such a vast commotion, everything would haveJ settled down at once in Pface and comfort. Great blessings had been given us. and we must make the most of them. Speaking of the mission of the Christian Church, the Bishop said God had brought her to the kingdom for such a time as this, and that if she fulfilled her mission, which was to instil into all the true meaning of the brotherhood and fellow- ship of man, it would mean the bettering of the world and the extension of God's kingdom among the peoples of the earth. AFTERNOON MEETING. At the afternoon meeting for ladies, the Rev. E. Jen kins-Da vies, Vicar of Brynamman, delivered a most instruc- tive address. It is interesting to recall that the Vicar was curate at St. Mary's. Swansea, twenty-one years ago. We omitted to mention in our para- graph of Tuesday anent the St. Jude's C.E.M.S. meeting, that Mr. G. A. Smith was the lecturer, and that supporting the chairman were Messrs. E. Llewelyn Daniel (secretary of the Federation), B; P. Junes (Mumbles), Rev. Carnegie Knox (St. James'), and Mr. Rellingham.

I PARLIAMENT. I-,
I PARLIAMENT. I Future of D.O.R.A. Sir F. Banbury and Magna Charta. I In the House of Commons on Tuesday, Sir Gordon Ilewart, in moving the be- cond reading of the War Emergency Laws Continuance Bill, said he was glad to say a considerable part of the Bill was no longer considered necessary. (Hear, hear.) He proposed that the Bill, subject to important omissions, should be read a second time. and be thereupon referred to a Standing Committee, on the under- standing that if they found that any other of the regulations in the Bill could with safety be omitted the Government would gladly consider their suggestion. Sir F. Banbury (Co.XJ., City of London) submitted, on a point of order, that the Bill was out of order and could not be proceeded with. According to the title of the Bill, its only object was to pontinue temporarily certain emergency enact- ments and regulations, but in Clause 3 the Bill actually altered the law. That clause actually rejiealed Magna Charta. It withdrew the right of freedom under the Petition of Right, under which the subject had always had the right of action against the Crown. THE SPEAKER'S RULING. -I The Speaker said he would like to hear the Attorney-General on the point. Sir G. Ilewart paid the whole part of the schedule to which the sub-section quoted by Sir F. Bunbury referred wa., that which dealt with the power to take possession of premises tor the purposes oi the Ministry of Pensions or the Ministry lof Labour. All that the sub-section did was to point ont the mode in which com- i pensation was to he assessed in cases witero the regulations did not make specific provision to the end. The Speaker said he was disposed to agree with 6ir F. Banbury. (Cheers). Sir F. Baybury said this was taken from Magna Charter. lIe did not think he was quite right in tbaf-(Iaugliter)- but he was not very far wrong. Although, as the Attorney-General pointed out, the power would be exercised in rwpect of certain lands and premises which the' ? Mimstry of Pensions and the M'nxtrv of Labour might take, 6till the sub-sec- tion would deprive the subject of the al- ternative right which he had in order to obtain compensation. Therefore, he felt bound to hold that it did not come within. the title or scope of the Bill. He thought it would be too drastic a course to declitic to put the second reading of thef Bill What lie would suggest was that when tho Bill went to Committee the words he had cited should be struck out, and that the subject should be left to alternative riehfc. ADVISED TO WITHDRAW. Sir Donald Maclean Uj-. Peebles), thought that, in view of the ruling of the Speaker, the Government would be well advised to withdraw the Bill and bring in another measure. Nothing had secured more support in the country than the belief that it was the intention of the Government to withdraw the mass of ro- gulations under the Defence of the Realm Act, which it was believed would be only maintained in existence during the war. The whole country was anxiously await- ing the time when the plain man ('ouid see where he was going, and the Housf would be wanting in its primary duty ii they gave the Executive the powers con tained in this Bill. (Hear, hear). Sir F. Banbury said D.O.R.A. dead and buried in France, and we should fo]. low the example at once. He suggested that the Bill be withdrawn and an amended Bill introduced. MR. BONAR LAW ON CONTROL. Mr. Bonar Law said the Government had no desire to perpetuata tyrannous w.! r powers. If it were possible to get back to ordinary private methods of -trad-ins 1 should desire nothing better but "11 thinking man could picture to himsc:; what would be the condition of the coun- try to-morrow or a month fine? if all thew regulations were withdrawn and trader was to be left to look after his OxN-1, interests. What would happen if coal were let. free. At the moment there was nothin, like euIQcient coal to meet the absolute1 necessities of the country. If they If.r ooal unregulated in a week there wou! i be a ffreat shortage, and the price woi&l I soar to a figure that none could imagine. The Government did not want to con- tinue control a moment longer than tr. ■ necessities of the case required. When tl Bill was discussed in Committee members could suggest modification.? of the regu!:> tions they did not like. Without *ome control there would be chaos. Unless the House passed a Bill of thig kind the coun- try ran a risk. Ratification would prob- abiy not take place until the second or third month of next venr. If be were sure of that lie would withdraw the Bill now. But he was not sure of it, ana not being sure of it the Government could not take the risk. They were not going to withdraw the Bill. The House had got to make up its mind, notwithstanding the chatter outside which had been reflected in some of the speeche4 whether the Government bad the confidence of the country. He put it to the House whether they intended to give these powors to the Government. I GOVERNMENT'S BIG MAJORITY. I Lord H.! Cecil (Co. U. llitchin) recom- mended the Government to withdraw the Bill and re-introduce it a condensed form. Mr. J. H. Thomas CLab., Derby) said the Bill ought to be withdrawn and brought up again. The House then divided on Sir F. Ban- bury's motion for the adjournment of tho debate, and there voted For the Amendment 77 Against 283 Government majority. 206 I LABOUR PARTY'S OPPOSITION. The debate on the main question was continued Mr. A. Henderson (Lab., Widnes) was cheered on rismg to speak for the first. time since Ns election. He said there must be a sense of humiliation on the part of all sections that the Government should consider such a measure necessary now that the war was over. The French Government, he believed, immediately the Treaty of Ppate was ratified, swept away all the objectionable legislation passed for the purposes of the war. What was good for the French Republic ought not to be bad for a country which boasted of its freedom for so many centuries (Hear. hear). The Labour Party was en- tirely opposed to this form of legislation. Such legislation was a poor return for the patriotism displayed by the people during j the war. Other members having spoken against j the second reading, the House divided. 1 and the second reading was carried by i 233 to 63. MR. KgLLAWAY'S SHUDBER. ) Mr. Kellaway told the House that he could not adopt 4 suggestion that the j Government's surplus etocke of boote and | cloth should be distributed to local anthr), riti and co-operative societies at the prices the Government paid for them, to j be sold for the benefit of the public. It iwas open to the co-operative eocieties to j tender for the goods, but the Govern- ment could not sell at less than the mar- kbt price.

Tom Voyle seconded, and Mr. Walter Samuel, barrister, spoke in support. Alderman Tom Men-ells referred in glowing terms to the ability and fitness of Dan Evans in the Council Chamber. His desire was to serve his fellows, and pos- sessing no camouflage and with no «se to grind, he would be like the leopard and never lose his spots. The candidate appealed for a renewal of confidence in the name of organised labour. If returned, he promisod to carry any mandate to the Council Chamber, and pointed out his desire to see to the appeals of the discharged and demobilised soldiers and sailors. (Applause.) The resolution was carried unanimously.

I DUNLOP TYRE CO.I
I DUNLOP TYRE CO. I I Olympia Motor Exhibition. I I Somewhere about thirty years ago, it may be a year under or over, the Pnau- ruatic Tyre Company of the period, the 'first of all tyre companies, had to use double-page advertisements to try to con- | vince cyclists, to whom alone the appeal was made, that the pneumatic was really a revolutionary production—one destined to file down the inequalities of the high- way, and lead them to a cycling paradise which adherents of solid tyres averred did not ('xi&t, could not exist, and conse- I quently it was cheer madness to en- deavour to reach it. John Boyd Dunlop, the inventor; the late Harvey du Cros, the far-seeing busi- ness man; R. J. Mccredy, editor and ex- pert racer; A. J. Wilson, journalist and speed merchant on two, three- or four wheels, thought differently, and they had wood reason so to do, for as fast as the original pneumatic could be manufac- tured, so the cycling world was converted to the use of the air tyre. More, a new, bigger and better cycling world was created, and though it knew it not, was the forerunner of wonders that have followed. Yesterday it was con- sidered a marvel to fit pneumatic tyres to passenger motor-cars; to-morrow will see th<gin on motor-'buses and heavy commer- cial vehicles. From the start in a little workshop in Dublin down to the creation of the huge factories at Fort Dunlop, tho direct descendants of the original com- I pany have constantly progressed through I all the escending grades of pneumatic I transport—bicycle, tricycle, jaunting-car, c.ai-ri,ige-fo the countless types of to- day's power-propelled vehicles. The Dunlop pneumatic tyre of to-day I will he conspicuous on Stand 197 at the I Exhibition which is to be opened at Olympia on November 7th, and despite I increased railway fareø. the show is ex- pected to be visited by motorists from all parts of the three kingdoms, for the car owner is as keen on novelties as the trader, and the increased charges for admission will merely exclude pro- menaders. The enthusiast is insuppres- sible. a good thing for the motor in- dustry, which looks towards making great i strides after about five years of war work. Tyres will, of course, predominate- plain, grooved, and steel-studded—sup- ported by a multitude of accessories whose value is certified by the Dcnlop stamp. Dun Ions do a considerable trade in the manufacture of wheels, chiefly at Coven- try, where a subsidiary company operates, and the principal make is the famous detachable wire wheel, now a standard fitting to the leading giotip of cars. Other pattams are Dunlop bolt dRta?hdbIe artil- lery p¡"ed eteel wheel, DunJop belt da- tachable artillery wood wheel, and I)unlop I fb:d type artillery wood wheel. j Victor's will be given a peep at The I I Dunlop Book," admHtedly the best and I most sumptuous guide to the British Isle-s ever ismed, and although the price—two guineas—is apparently higo, qnaHtied I lit<'r' (titles throughout the kingdom unhesitatingly declare it is well worth it.
FARM WAGES.
FARM WAGES. Important West Wales Test Case. i At Penrhiwpal Petty Sessions (Cardi- ganshire) on Tuesday, a case of greait im- portance to farmers and farm workers was heard, when Mrs. Daisy Franeesca Lewes. Werville Brook, Llangrangog, was summoned by Mr. Hugh Harries, inspec- tor of the Agricultural Wages Board, for failing to pay her farm servant, David John Jones, between February 10, 1919, and May 19. the minimum rate of wages as fixed under the Corn Production Act, 1917. The case was looked upon as a test case. Mr. Roland Oliver, London (Instructed j by Mr. W J Williams, Cardigan.) ap-! peared to prosecute for the AgNciiitural Wages Board, ani, Mr. D. Roy Evans (of Messrs. Roy Evans and Jones, Newcastle Emlyn,) defended. It was mutually agreed that Jones was entitled to 40s. per week in winter time and 37s. in summer (including overtme POINT IN DISPUTE. _I Mr. Oliver sarid thao the man was hired i by Mrs. Lewes tt .£30 a year-Ile, 6ld. per week—with board and lodging. valued uncler the Order at 12s. 6d. per week-a total ff2b. old. per week. That agree- ment was made after the Order caipe into force, and Mr. Oliver stated that under the Order the man was grossly under- paid. Mr. Oliver submitted that under the A6t the agreement was absolutely void. Mr. Roy Evans sa-d defendant did not want to fight the case on any side issue, but only on a question of law. Mrs, Lewes was fighting the case as a person who was a keen farmer herself and who wished to set at i^st what was altogether vital to the industry. For hundreds of! years before this Act was passed it wa." a general law that the hiirng of farm servants was a hiring for a year, even if nothing were fwid about ;,t. The question was whether it was humanly possible for Mrs. Lewes to have failed to pay the minimum wage unhil the twelve month" were up. It was precedent that the man must give twelve months' service before the wages were due. DISMISSED. After a short consultation, the chair- ] man announced that the Bench were unanimous in dismissing the case. They j stated a case. There were several similar cases in the list, and it was agreed that: these should stand adjourned pending the deers»on of j the Divisional Court in the case ag\Ïnfit Mrs. Lewes. >
