The Day's Gossip. Leader" Office, Tuesday. If you were consigned last night to listen to Hark the Herald Angels Sing!" sung by six parties of carrollers, none of whom had much idea of tune, or the value of words, or anything else but the shekels they hoped to (but did not) get —you might this morning possess as re- markable a flow of adjectives as the gentle- man who called upon me just now to in- quire whether carrollers were nuisances within the Act. When I suggested to him that the .situation would probably grow worse before it grew better, I am sorry to say that he became rude-as I am afraid he will be to-night when the singers enter his hall and strike up. The Middle Classes. I A cynical iriend of mine tons aepiores the social status of Swansea: Aristocracy. I Coal-trimmers, boiler-makers, rnd I allied trades, doctors (some), farmers. I Middle Classes. I Public officials, teachers (under n?w i scale), police officers. j Lower ulasses. I Coal-owners (under new Act), wotIes proprietors, drapers, docksmen. I rather fancy there is some 'eg-pulling in all this; I am personally suspicious I about the last two names, which, so it I strikes me, might be advanced &t least one scale. From a Gower Grotto. I That our friend "Roamer" is still singing of the joys of Gower I am re- minded by the following note:—" I dearly love to sit in some grotto on Grower's coast, and let my mind wander over the gieat deep where the mariner For many a day, and many a dreadful night, Incessant labour round the stormy Cape; I like to sail on the sea, with those who go down to it. I like to say Aye, Aye, sir H and shiver my timbers, with the heartiest of them. I love to sail around its thousands isles, and past the great Continents. I love to think of Biscay n. ells and my disregard of them (in fancy); of fatal rocks, of great whirl- pools, of sunken Spanish galleons, of fishes, of monsters. I think of naked savages Vho frighten me with their foot- prints, and of Juan Fernandez; of pearls, and mermaids' grottos, of enchanted isles (but I don't like to think of the people, who come down to the sea, because it is the fashion, I don't like them at all. They are, fortunately,, somewhat of a rare avis here. but in Llandudno they spoil the place, for lovers of the open air, we modem sun worshippers. Knowing that I don't like them, they no doubt will take the hine, and stay in Llandudno). All sorts of fancies come to one when he sits in some lonely grotto on the Gower coast —which is my excuse for this roaming paragraph. :!L,_rOffWYdi: I- .?-I r* _i ix i \ongritLiuu\,ums cann-ox ne onerea rce Drama Company on the selection of u Beddau'r Proffwydi for the first per- formance of the Swansea actors.

I It seems to me that, were our Welsh musician?: and musical experts to devote the time they now give to criticism of each other, and of all the HworId and his wife, we might get along better, and more quickly The slamming match is too pro- longed It was inte,resting at the start, but it i? simply tedious now. Gentlemen! will you get back to your music! The New Earth. I Very gradually there seems to be emerging in the world of industry a new idea which is destined to neutralise. if not nullify, industrial misunderstanding and industrial unrest." Thus a colleague of a philosophical mood of mind. Whether you agree with him or not let him have his say. Everybody is coming to see that it is not the capi- talistic or any other system that is res- ponsible for our ills, but we ourselves. Good men will always make better of the worst system, than bad men of the best. Thus the new idea is to give to every in- dividual engaged in an industry a sense of responsibility, and this can only be done by loading each individual with that measure of control of which he is capable, and that financial interest in the concern which will force him to realise that he is not only adding to the wealth of his employer, but also enriching him- self. The latest instance of the applica- tion of this new irlea is lucidly explained in a speech of Mr. W. H. Whitcomb, of Harper Beau, Ltd. The pychology of the worker,' lie 6ays, is rarely under- stood. You need to have been a worker, to have toiled, to know all that has been the worker's lot in the past, to under stand his views to-day. The worker is just as much a human being as the em- ployer. It is a fallacy to think that the worker does not care about his em- ployers' interest. A sucessful and pro- gressive enterprise appeals to the worker. He is proud to be of it, and reali-ses that the greater the sucess of the firm the greater is the security and benefit to himself.' What the Harper Bean lias done is to issue 500.000 fully paid up ordinary shares, to be held by trustees on behalf of the employes as a whole, for the pnr- pose of a benevolent fund. The income is to be distributed by a committee of six I diretcors and six employes." I The Evening Dress Revival. -1 The war-days deprived gilded youths ot the opportunity to sport evening dress. I fancy that every bor who dons the con- ventional, sombre apparel for the first time cannot help feeling portentously solemn over it all. The exclusive con- cTsazi-one and dances of the time before the tragic years are coming into their own again, and—horror—evening dress is ahr-olntely imperative. Perspiration will flow freeiv over dress-bows that refuse to sit straight. The soft dress shirt (what a relief from the boiled variety!) is le deruier cui, but white Vests and tight gloves must still be negotiated. There is fiv least a little consolation for the Lcthario just coming out. and that is that swallow-tails are not indispensable, at present, because the majority of the fashionable demobbed are clinging to the easy negligence of the dinner-jacket. At least that is what T hear. But. the local debutantes are going to have (and are preparing to have!) the time of their dainty lives in the matter of evening diess. A recent function made the male element feel very much out of it for effectiveness. They were (the debutantes. T mean so brdeclred. ornate, And v,ay that one was compelled to wonder how much pater was mulcted in to pro- vide for the radiant exbibitioul

For the Ladies. I Re-Footing Thin Stockings Now that stockings are such an exhorbi- tant price, we must all treat them with the greatest care, but, however hard we try, they still wear out in a remarkably quick time, especially at the soles and heels. Since every woman knits nowadays, it is not difficult to cut out the worn parts, pick up the stitches of 3-ply wool, and knit a new heel and sole, which may easily be grafted on. There is certainly a difficulty, in the case of cashmere, but by this plan you can prolong the wearing qualities of your stockings. First cut out the heel, unpick the seams of the sole, discarding the worn under- part. Now cut down the leg on either side to the extent of two to two-and-a-half inches; double this part in the centre, and placing the top ends together, sew them neatly with linen thread or fine wool, thus forming a new heel. Some legs are long enough to admit of rew soles being cut from them, but the better plan is to place the discarded sole on the best part of another old stocking and cut out two duplicates, minus the heel. The additional length afforded by the new heel enables you to dispense with tho worn part of the too on the upper sole. Place the middle of the new sole to the centre of the new heel, and sides to sides. The seams may be rnn up on the machine, opened up and herring-boned flatly, or they may be machined French fashion, stitching raw edges together on the right side, then turning them over and stitch- ing on the wrong side. Damp and press well, and the results will be found very satisfactory. Silk and mercerised stock- ings may be treated in exactly the same way. A HINT FOR BOOTS AND SHOES. I When cleaning boots and shoes, the I soles and heels should be polished like the other parts of them. This helps to preserve the leather, and the shoes will he found to wear much j longer. It pre- vents the wet soaking into the leather, which softens it and makes it wear badly. TO REDUCE YOUR CANDLE Bill. I Set aside one particular candlestick for this purpose; fit a large cork into the socket reaching not quite up to the top, then push a fairly large pin through the cork with the point protruding a little way above the oork. Use up all candle ends of about an inch from the other candlesticks by spearing the wick from underneath on to the pin. If you get the pin through the wick, the candle will burn to the last drop of wax, and you can feed it for a long time with the grease which drops about on the candlesticks as well. PREPARATIONS FOR CHRISTMAS. I It is not a day too soon to begin pre- parations for Christmas in the way of mincemeat and plum puddings, both of which improve with keeping. Many hrusowives possess their own special re- cipes, but I would like them to try mine fry ouoe. Minco Meat.-one pound each suet, apples, currants, raisins; quarter pound each sugar and candied peel; two ounces almonds, one teaspoonful pudding spice, jujee of one and rind of half a lemon; two tablespoonsful of nun. Chop finely the suet, apples, raisins, oandied peel, lemon peel, and almonds (the latter may be omitted if desired), then mix all the in- gredients in a large bowl. Strain in the lemon inice, and set aside for 24 hours Now give another good stirring, then pack the mince meat into a jar a.nd pour over the rum. Tie down securely and put away in a cool dry place. This will keep for an indefinite time. Plum Pudding (without eggs or milk).— Half a pound each of sixot, currants, raisins and sugar, quarter pound flour and bread crumbs, two ounces candied peel, one carrot, one apple, one potato. Chop finely the suet, raisins, 'candied peel; grate the carrot, apple, and potato, then blend the ingredients very thoroughly, adding a pinch of salt. Pack all into a large, well-greased pudding basin, tie up in the ordinary way, and boil briskly for three hours. Hang up in a oool dry place, and when required boil again for three hours. This is a delicious pudding of very fine flavour, and suffi- cient for a large family gathering. Half quantities can be made up, or the given quantities made into two puddings.

Yet another opportunity. To enable those patients who were unable to see Mrs. Clara E. Slater last week. she will make another visit to Swansea on Fri- day. This is positively her last visit until 1922. See Advt. on Page 10.

"-—' ——— INCREASED PAY. I New Scales for Certificated and Head Teachers. Swansea Education Staffing Committee on Monday (Aid. Dd. Matthews, M.P., presiding), decided on its new scales for certificated teachers and head teachers. The basis of the scale remains at four- fifths of the men's scale for women, and the net result is a cost of approximately 934,000 per annum, of which three-fiftbs will come from the Government. The scale for certificated, two-year, college-trained teachers provides that commencing at an equal minimum of £175, men should rise by 912 10s. per an- num to £350, and women by £10 to £ 28P. Certificated non-college trained to be paid I one increment less, but rising to the same maximum HEAD TEACHERS. I As to head teachers, it was decided that on promotion the men should receive S25 and women S20 for each grade, instead of C12 106. and £10 now, and that the maxima shall be raised S50 in the case of men and 90 in the case of women. The jacale becomes operative from let Janarv next. The position of the uncertificated and supplementary teachers was considered, but no action was taken.
