WAUNARLWYDD EISTEDDFOD./I
COAL SHIPMENTS. Lord Furnesa, presiding at the annual meeting of Broomhill Collieries, Ltd., at Neweastle-on-Tyne, on Friday, said the re- ctrictions of coal shipments had proved very disturbing, the most serious aspect of the matter being that the refusal of licenses often caused accumulation of i stocks which, in turn, meant stoppage of viork- at the pits and consequent loss of tr earnings to the company—to say nothing of a serious wastage of labour to the country when men were obliged to rest when they might be working full time. During the last six weeks their pits had! be-en idl" no less than seven days through that cause.

THE TOPER'S TEST! Ext.ract from letter of a correspondent upon the subject of the white rings upon the Walter-road trees: I find them extremely useful; for not only do they advertise the whereabouts of the trees, but they also serve as a test as to the —er frame of mind I am going home in. For instance:— If I see two distinct white rings, then all's well." 0 —but if they appear like this!- then there's no place like home!"
IRON & STEEL TRADES.]
PEACE POW-WOWS IN WALES A correspondent writes to the "Morning Poot" to the effect that the pro-Germans and Pacifists of the I.L.P. a'hd D.n.C. are making arrangements for a vigorous peaco campaign in South Wales this autumn and winter. This district is regarded by the pro-Germans of these two organisa- tions and their clMioots as more respon- sive to their propaganda than any other part of the United Kingdom. For a long time no effort Was made to counteract the insidious efforts of the pro-Germans to undormino the patriotism of the workers in South W al. But thefiret check came with the defeat of the pro-German crowd in the Merthyr bye-election. The I.L.P. will never forgive Mr. Stanton for defeating their nominee. While Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, and many smaller places are infected with these pro- Gfermans and their various "stage- armies," as Mr. J. A. Seddon aptly calls them, Merthyr is the woist place. It is these people and their stage armies" that have to be fought in South Wales. Already they have arranged a, big autuiim and winter programme of meetings to be addressed by some of the best known pro- jermans, and they believe that this w-i ntor the people will be ready for peace du anv terms.
i___A GENISTA HERO.
IRON & STEEL TRADES.] The Proposed Fusion of Union Societies. i —— An important acheme for confederating v arious unions in the iron and steel in- dustry is under consideration in the West NVales area. and during the coming week the members will be asked to vote upon hhe matter. Since the beginning of the' war negotia- tionshave been taking place between the respective unions with a view to arriv- ing at an agreement whereby their inte- rests could be brought into unison, sec- tionalism with the evils of competition and disputes done away with, and a scheme of future co-operation devised which will ultimately establish one strong united organisation in the industry. It Mt that in the important scheme be- fore the unions they had the means of accomplishing that end. 25,000 MEN AFFECTED. I At present about 25.000 men ar-, om- I ployed in the tinplate trade in South Wales. They are divided into six differ-I put societies, the British Steel Smelters' Association. Dockers' Union, Tin and Sheet Millmen's Association, Gas Workers and General Labourers' Asso?c?intion. Welsh Artisans' Society, and the En- gineers. The millnien alone are members i of four societies, and if t.he suggested amalgamation comes into effect it will bring about the avoidance of duplication of officials, and one union will serve the whole of the unions. PREVENTION OF SECTIONALISM. One of the objects of amalgamation is to prevent sectionalism. There has been a full recognition of the evil, and the failuYe, it is said, to apply the remedy has been largely due to trade unionists quibbling about little details not worth a moment's thought when compared with the important principles involved, and the broad outstanding question of the impera- tive need of unity of trade union effort.

THE CHANGED WIFE. I Objections by a bridegroom to a photo of his wife were raised on a claim for £21 by Isidore Rose, a North London photo grapher, at Clerkenwell County Court. George Luck, the husband, a Highbury man, complained that his bride was made to look too stout, and her face too wide, and that when the proof was altered thertl did not seem to be any difference. Judge Roberta (examining the photo- graph) remarked to defendant, You have a thumb sticking out in a masterfuJ  way. Defendant: That is right. His Honour: Your wife is wearing an i attractive white wedding dress. Luck: But it is not like my wife at all. His Honour: As she is not here I can't 63Y. As to your thumb you must have keld it like that. I Luck: He should have warned me. His Honour: The photograph showe that you are folding your wife's arm. It suggests that, having married her, you were not in a hurry to let her go again. His Honour gave judgment for the amount claimed, remarking that the photographer had done his work properly.

THE MEN OF 41. ARMY COUNCIL DEClSIOH.-A TTESTED TO BE DRAFltO TO RESEHYE Press Bureau, Friday Night *-The Secretary of the War Office makes the fol- lowing announcement:— The-foltowing Army Council instruction is being issued to recruiting officers rela- tive to the calling-up of men of 41 years of age. As it will take some time for the instruction to reach those responsible for carrying it out it is published for the general information of those concerned:— With reference to A.C.I. 1,953 of 1916, by which both attested and unattested men were to be called up, the following in- struction will govern the calling-up of men in Groups 23 and 46 (i.e., attested men), also those in Groups 22 and 43 if any men included in the groups are affected by the instructions. (1) Notice papers A.F.W. 3,195 will be sent to all men shown on the military registers as belonging to one or other of these groups unless they are marked in the military registers as being in posses- sion of some form of operative exemption. (2) Attested single men and attested men deemed to be single who attained the age of 41 years prior to March 2, 19Hi, shall. on production of their birth certi- ficate b rlgated to the Reserve. (3) Attested married men and attested men deemed to be married who attained the age of. 41 years prior to June 24, 1916, shall on production of their birth certifi- ficate be relegated^ to the Reserve, (4) The expression deemed to be single means a man who on November 2, 1915, was unmarried or was a widower with no child dependent on him. (5) The expression deemed to be married means a widower who waa married prior to November 3. 1915, but has become a widower on or since that date. (6) Area commanders are empowered i to grant leave up to 21 days to attested men called ilp under A.C.I. 1953, as niodi- fied by this instruction, if the men on I posting ask for this concession and shewn reasonable grounds for it being extended to them, foi eyample, in connection with making financial arrangements for their) families, etc. (7) All unattested me* who are legally liable to serve under the Military Service Acts and who are not in possession of some form of operative exemption are to be called to the colours forthwith. (8) Recruiting officers should note that! it is within the power of the local tri-j bunal, at their discretion, to hear an ap- r plication from a man if he can show sufli- cient reason why he has not been able to send in the aplications within the pre- scribed period. The President of the Local Government Board is about to issue a communication to local tribunals res- pecting applications for exemption by at.. tested men affected by the above Army Council instruction. A local tribunal has discretion to entertain a late application by an attested man if it is made within i seven days after an individual calling up notice has been sent to him by the mili- tary authorities. In the case of an at- tested man aftecterl by the above instruc- tion it is intended to extend the period and to give the local tribunals discretion to entertain an application if it is made before the date on which the man is due under the calling-up notice to report him- self for service with the. colours.
"'1M WITH THE FACE." I
GERMAN FISH CARDS. I The fact that fish cards have become eOmpuLsory in Germany may 00 regarded as a distinct triumph for Great Britain. It will be remembered that the British Government made arrangements to pui- chase fish in Holland at a reasonable rate. with the result that the scarcity of fish was at once felt in Germany, and tha 1 price reached enormous figures. I The idea was not so much to provide fish for England as to prevent the Gel'" l mans from securing it, and this result has undoubtedly been achieved. Though the exigencies of transport may frequently make it impossible to deliver the fish in edible form on this side, the fact is that Germany does not get the fish.
Family Notices
"'1M WITH THE FACE." How did Tate come to be a common surname" It is for Tete or Teste, but how came a Thirteenth Century person to be called Emeric a la Teste (Emeric-with-the Head)? Mr. We-t-klty in H Surnameø" (John Murray) explains it by quoting the following sci-ap of dialogue: Who was the bloke I see yer with last night- Wot? 'Im with the face? No; the other one. Emeric-with-the-Head wag really Emeric with the Head on him. Some of the mediaeval nicknames are very explicit; we meet, for example, in the Patent Rolls one John Ordegorge Gentilcors (I>irt:v- > throad Handsome-body), who may have been a person of goodly presence and a foul vocabulary.

I THE Liberal Club Building I LLANELLY. -Why you should consult | Mr. WORRELL, IN the first place, because nearly all eyes would be the better for scientific attention. In the second place, because 1 you cannot afford to take risks 1 with so delicate and so impor- |1 tant an organ as the eye. In the third place; because Mr. 8 Worrell is one of the leading sight testing specialists in England. In the fourth place, because no fee is charged for the examina- tion, whilst glasses, if you need them, will he supplied at an ex- traordinarily small cost. I HEADACHES. Ninety per cent. of apparently i incurable cases of headache are duo to defects of the eyesight, j and can be permanently over- come by wearing properly fitted |. special glasses. Most people suffering from headache never suspect that their eyes are the source of the trouble. Yet it is so, as Mr. I Worrell has found over and over i again. | Mr. Worrell can only stay in | 8 Llanelly until the end of 1 I next week. Make a point of a I visiting him early.

SWANSEA SESSIONS THE ABSENCE OF GRIME IN THE BOROUGH. ONE PRISONER ON TRIAL There was only one prisoner for trial at the Michaelmas Quarter Sessions for the County Borough of Swansea, held at the Guildhall, on Saturday. In charging the grand jury, of which Mr. Sam Stephens was foreman, the lte- corder (Mr. Ivor Bowen, K.C.), congra- tulated the County Borough upon the total absence of crime during the past quarter. YOUNG WOMAN HOUSEBREAKER. Lily May Thomas (21), was indicted for breaking and entering 9, Cromwefl- etreet and stealing a tl Treasury note, 6s. 10ki., a gold bangle, gold pendant and chain, two pearl pieces, gold pincenez and case, and ¡¡,tbe. of bacon, of the total value of S5 18e. 9d.; also for breaking and entering 21, Croin well-street and stealing a lady's coat, a quantity of silk and calico, a lady's long overcoat, ?s. in cash, and table centre, of the total valu? ot ?4. 88. 6d., the property of Emma Jones, on Octa- ber 3rd. She pleaded guilty to both charges. Mr. Walter Samuel (instructed by Mr. John Jenkins), appeared for the Crown. PRISONER'S CAREER OF CRIME. Deteclive-lnapecbor llayse said prisoner, a single woman, firut caaiie under the notice of the police in 1901), when she was charged at Abw4dare with stealing A,-e ?2, 10I fid. and bound over ior twelve months Since then she had been Sentenced twice at Abei-dare for falsr, pretences and theft in 1913, and in November, 1914, was sent to prison for three months for similar offences at Swansea, seven other charges being taken into account. On July 17th, 1915, ahe was sentenced to threo months' hard labour at Swansea for stealing a gold brocoli, and five other charges were then taken into account. Besides the two pre- sent indictments against her, there were outstanding eight charges of larceny from dwelling houses and three charges of breaking and entering. The lieoocder: These are not charges, are they Witness: They were on the sheet at the police court. The property was recovered, and they were not proceeded with. Up to the 25th of last month, addtxl witness, prisoner was a general servant at a public-house. She then went into lodgings and committed these offences in the early morning, telling her landlady she was going to see her sister. The girl's parents liv.ed.in the Rhondda Valley, but were separated. Accused had nothing to say in extenua- tion of her crime. The Recorder (addressing prisoner): It is quite evident you are a confirmed thief and housebreaker, and that a great num- ber of houses have been broken into in this borough. Nothing I can eay to you vjoultl do you any good. The inhabitants of this borough must be protected from people like you, and the sentence upon you is nine months' hard labour on each indictment, to run concurrently.

CHANNEL TUNNEL. Mr. Arthur Fell, M.P., in an interview on Friday, said the members of the Chan- nel Tunnel Committee were very pleased with the Premier's promise to review the whole question. Mr. Asquith," said Mr. Poll, "could not have done more. We consider his de- cision very hopeful; it showed without a doubt that the opinion of the Cabinet is favourable to the scheme since they are asking their advisers, the military authorities, to reconsider their previous decision against it."
