RECHABITISM IN SWANSEA. PRESENTATION TO DR. RAWLINGS. There was a large attendance of members at the quarterly meeting of the "Unity" Tent of Rechabites. held at the Unitarian School- room, Swansea, on Monday evening last. Bro. W. Morrish presided, in the absence of Chief Ruler Henry Owen. Dr. Rawlings, the retir- ing medical officer, and Dr. Rhys Davies, the newly-appointed medical officer of the tent, were initiated honorary members. The Rev. A. A. Mathews, Vicar of Holy Trinity, was also to have been initiated, but an important meeting at his own church unavoidably pre- vented him from attending. When the cere- mony of initiation had been gone through, Brother Morrish took the opportunity of ex- pressing the pleasure which it gave the mem- bers of the Unity" tent to find themselves bound in brotherhood with their outgoing and incoming physicians. They welcomed the new doctor, and they wished prosperity and God-speed to the retiring one. Brother Jenkins, as a member of the tent since the first night of its opening, spoke warmly of the services rendered by Dr. Raw- lings to the cause of Rechabitisin. Personally, he had not troubled the doctor for nearly 22 yearti-a fact which proved that total abstin- ence was not inconsistent with good health. (Applause.) Bro. Huntley, another member of the tent since its commencement, referred with gratitude to the care bestowed upon his family by Dr. Rawlings. Bro. G. H. Tasker, district secretary, while welcoming Dr. Rhys Davies to their tent, prophesied that he would find a difficult task before him in having to live up to the tradi- tions of his predecessor. Bro. George Smith also spoke, after which Dr. Rawlings was presented with an illumin- ated emblem, excellently got up and framed in a massive English gilt frame. The address ran Independent Order of Rechabites, Salford Unity. Presented by the members of the Unity Tent, No. 157, to Brother Dr. John Adams Rawlings as a token of esteem and in appreciation of services rendered as medical officer during the past 15 years.—Henry Owen, C.R.. R. H. Smith, secretary, April, 1895." The presentation was formally made by Bro. Joseph Rosser, the doyen of local Rechabites. In a humorous but none the less earnest speech, Bro. Rosser remarked that it was now twenty-two-and-a-half years since Dr. Rawlings tested him at forty-nine years of age to see whether he was fit to become a member of this tent. He was fit; in fact, it had not cost him X5 during his seventy-one years of life to trouble any of the medical profession. (Hear, hear.) He remem- bered drinking when about thirteen years old too much sweet wine, but immediately after that he signed the pledge at a temperance meeting held in the old British Schools, Goat- street, He was deeply gratified at being present on this occasion in order to do honour to a friend with whom for twenty-three years he had not had a cross word. Dr. Rawlings had been a consistent Templar, and had shown to them in every way that he knew how to push forward and uphold those principles which all present had adopted. (Gaecrs.) tie honoured him as a true brother of temperance ia every shape and form. J he doctoi had lifted this tent up and given it a position, and he (the speaker) felt satisfied that his suc- 1 c ssor would be anxious to do the same. (Hear, bear.) In conclusion, Mr. kosser ™wed a hope that the world would be made better for the influence of that auspicious occasion. Dr Rawlings returned heartfelt acknow- t'ie influence of that auspicious occasion. _l Dr Rawlings returned heartfelt acknow- I ledgments for the presentation. He remark that the principal reason why he had res>lgned the medical officershipof the tent wa^ that he could no longer do the duties t 0 eutjre satisfaction. He had tried + 0 <j0 j^g best. (Applause.) He did not th nj. }iad lost his temper very often, (laughter.) One of the greatest trials of a. doctor's life was when patients came tov Consult him either on the completion rJt the morning's work before luncheor. or late at night when the brain was jaded after the day's toil. In their own interests p?,Vlents should visit a medical man when his body was fresh and his mental organisation clear. (Hear, hear.) He resigned not because he had grown tired of the tent, but because, after twenty-six years of active practice—it was now thirty-two years since he commenced his studies with Dr. Paddon—he had a great desire to limit his work, and to do what he took in hand thoroughly. The only way to do work well, he thought, was to do less work. He was not giving up his appointment in order to devote himself more to municipal duties— in fact, he intended doing less of them—but in order to consecrate his remaining years to a thorough accomplishment of whatsoever he might take up in medical, religious, and us philanthropic work. In conclusion. Dr. Rawlings stated that he would not cease to take an interest in the tent, and hoped the 11 members would deal generously with his sue- cessor, Dr. Rhys Davies. There was a move- ment going on all over the country to cut down medical fees to the lowest possible limit, He deprecated this exceedingly. It was foolish in every way, extreme folly indeed, to run after cheap physic and cheap doctoring. Human life and human health were very sacred. If they paid their medical attendants on a low scale there could only be one result. (Ap- plause). Speeches were also given by Dr. Rhys Davies, Councillor Mayne, and Mr. David Roberts, and the interesting proceedings terminated in the usual way. »

SWANSEA WATCH COM- MITTEE. MONTHLY MEETING. ———• The monthly meeting of the Watch Com- mittee of the Swansea County Council was held at the Guildhall on Tuesday afternoon. Dr. Rawlings presided, and there were also present—Alderman W. H. Edwards (Mayor), Alderman A. Mason, Councillors F. Bradford, Gwilym Morgan, J. Skidmore, Wm. Evans, and LI. Davies, together with the Chief Con- stable (Captain Colquhoun) and the deputy- Town Clerk (Mr. A. H. Miller). PALM SUNDAY. The deputy-Town Clerk notified the com- mittee that the Burial Board, which had previously sat in the Council Chamber, had had the approach of Palm Sunday under their consideration, and wished to urge that the Chief Constable should employ the same pre- cautions as were employed last year with regard to keeping order at the Cemetery. A Councillor explained that this would mean having constables inside to take charge of the flowers and others outside to keep the vehicles, the ice-cream carts, etc., moving about. The Chief Constable was instructed accord- ingly. Mr. Bradford If the men are to have long hours, can't we arrange to give them something to eat ? The Chairman: We ought to. The only stuff they had last year got into their heads. Mr. Gwilym Morgan: And into their heels. (Laughter.) It was decided that refreshments should be provided for the men on duty. CHIEF CONSTABLE'S REPORT. Captain Colquhoun read the following re- port :—" During the month of March 118 public gas lamps were reported out by the police. During the same period the number of defective water-shoots, pavements, &c., reported to the police, was 19. Six cases of waste of water were reported to the police, and also to the Borough Engineer. I have the pleasure of bringing to your notice two letters which I have received, the result of enquiries made by Inspector Jones, respecting the conduct of P.C. Wm. Jones (18) in stop- ping a runaway horse in Gorse-lane on March 18th. Letters received from Mrs. Tarr, a resident of the place; Mr. John Lloyd, the owner of the horse and vehicle Mr. Wood- man, butcher, and others, referred in very eulogistic terms to the constable's conduct on the occasion.—The Chief Constable then sub- mitted a subsidiary report, prepared by him- self and the Borough Treasurer, respecting the present system of receiving monies for mln police service, etc. They recommended the following changes in the present system:- (1) That the monies received be paid over to the Borough Treasurer weekly instead of fortnightly, as hitherto; (2) that the sums received for hand-trucks left in public places, and for copies of bye-laws, be paid to the Borough Treasurer upon a requisition signed by the Chief Constable; (3) that the present system of receiving weekly sums in return for the services of police at the theatres be con- tinued, except that the sums be paid over weekly to the Borough Treasurer and not to any constable, as hitherto; (4) that in future all accounts dealing with sums received for various extra services of police be prepared by the Chief Constable and handed to the Borough Treasurer for collection; (5) and that the present system of receiving sums for tramear, hackney carriage, gunpowder, and other licences, be continued in the future except that the money be collected and handed over to the Borough Treasurer weekly instead of monthly, as hitherto." The combined report was moved, seconded, and adopted unanimously. P.C. JONES'S PLUCKY DEED. Mr. Llewelyn Davies asked how many years P.C. Jones had been in the force. The Chief Constable: Twelve or fourteen years. Mr. Bradford We have the power to give him a merit badge. Mr. Skidmore Undoubtedly the rescue of life and limb should be recognised. Mr. Bradford proposed that P.C. Jones should be given the merit badge, and that an expression of appreciation of his conduct should be sent him from the committee, also that the incident should be entered on the minutes. Mr. Skidmore, in seconding, said it might serve a good purpose in years to come when promotion time was on hand. The proposi- tion was carried. REQUIRED—A RETURN. Mr. Skidmore moved for the following re- turns to be presented to the next meeting:— First, the names, numbers, and pay of all the inspectors, sergeants, and constables actually doino- street duty; second, all inspectors, sergeants, and officers of the force who are otherwise engaged—what are their duties and where performed, with their names, numbers, and pay; also, the date when each joined the force together with the date of promotion of any of the above, and to what rank promoted and pay. Mr. Skidmore said that on looking over the rules of procedure he found it was permissible to ask for such a return, and he would now ask the Deputy Town Clerk whether his request was in order or not. If not, he would give notice of motion for the next Council meeting. The Chairman It is in order. But as this is rather a cumbrous return, will you say why you want it ? Mr. Skidmore At the last Council meeting I put several questions respecting certain things connected with members of the police force, and for the answers the Council had to depend upon the memories of the officials and others. Now, as people's memories are not always sufficiently retentive I don't want to trust to them. Mr. Llewelyn Davies As Mr. Skidmore has "iven notice, why go into particulars to-day ? Why not leave the matter in abeyance until next Watch Committee ? The Chief Constable The only difficulty I see in preparing the return is that sometimes the men are doing one duty to-^™ duty to-uiorrow. -4^ ami another Mr. Skidmore We^ wi], take the duty at the time the let ..ru,s I\re d out for. I simply want to ± who is recei" n *now wh/lt f1™ *>«« we ire or Watch Committee can .-titled to auy information the officials can T oAr. Bradford: us have a certain date (or the naming of the duty—say the first of I April. (Laughter). Mr. Skidmore (warningly) Don't! Don't! Mr. Chairman, I may say something which Let us have it for the month of March. The matter was so decided. THE CHANGE IN POLICE DUTIES. Mr. Skidmore, with the permission of the Chairman, referred to another matter, which, he said, was put at the last Watch Committee meeting, and was then either shelved or ruled out of order—he was not sure which. A great many inquiries were on foot all through the town as to the changing of the officers for the various districts. He found that new ones had been put in his district, for instance; and whereas those who had been located there for five or six years knew every street, the new ones had to be taken round and shown every- thing. He wanted to know whether it was competent for this committee to obtain from the Chief Constable information as to any object he might have in making such altera- tions. He learned that the change had been going on all round. The Mayor Oh, all over the county. Mr. Skidmore Sir, I am asking for in- formation. When people put these questions to me, what am I to answer ? The deputy-Town Clerk I should say" It is not my business to answer those questions Mr. Skidmore: But what you would say may not make the reply a proper one. The Mayor: People may as well ask why a chief constable is wanted. The Chief Constable informed Mr. Skidmore that he thought it only fair to other members of the force to put them into the out-stations which were held at a reduced rental. Mr. Skidmore I am satisfied. This was all the business of interest.

Millar, deputy-Town Clerk, asked their Worships to appoint some date for the hearing and deter- mining of certain objections to private street works to be carried out by the Corporation at the back of Heathfield. Mr. Millar said that under the Swansea Corporation Act, 1889, the Corporation had power to carry out certain street works but before doing so they must prepare plans and specifications, and then serve the owners of the property with notice that the Corporation proposed to carry out those works. The conditions had been com- plied with, and the owners bad given notice that they objected to the works on various grounds, some that the works had already been done; that they were unreasonable; and that the street was not a street within the meaning of the Act. By section 122 of the Swansea Corporation Act, it was necessary to apply to a court of summary jurisdiction to appoint a time for determining the matter of those objections. It would be for the magistrates to decide whether or not those works should be carried out. Mr. Millar suggested that Thursday, April 11th, would be convenient, and the learned Stipendiary agreed to that date. WEDNESDAY. [Before Dr. J. Q. Hall and W.

This was the first time he had caught defendant posting bills there. Witness had not informed the police-inspector that the bills posted were theatre bills.—Mr. Seline said the defendant was not aware he was doing wrong, and maintained that it was the duty of the police-inspector to have warned Mr. Chappel, the manager of the New Theatre, that by posting bills on these walls he was acting contrary to a new bye-law, which cance into operation for the first time in May, 1894.— Superintendent Thomas said it was Mr. Chappel's duty to have known the require- ments of the new bye-law.—The Benchiniiicted a fine of 2s. and costs. VARIOUS.—Edward Rysn, labourer; John Griffiths, labourer and John Williams, tin- worker, were mulcted in fines-the first in one of 20s. and the other two in 15s. each- for drunkenness.—William Hawkins, boot- maker, and a lad named Percival Padley, for riding bicycles on the footway at Blackpill, were ordered to pay 10s. each. Charles Garrard, Oystermouth, and David Gwynn, hauliers, Swansea, were respectively fined 15s., and Charles Richard, haulier, Swansea, 10s., for driving on various nights, in the county, their vehicles without having lights attached to both sides of them.

SCIENCE TEACHING IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS. ABLE LECTURE BY PRINCIPAL SALMON. The last lecture of the Swansea Scientific Society's Series was delivered on Friday evening, at the Royal Institution of South Wales, by Principal David Salmon (of the Swansea Training College), who took for his subject, "Science teaching in Elementary Schools." Mr. E. Fish presided, and there was a fairly large attendance, amongst those present being Miss Fish, Mr. aad Mrs. R. Suchsland, Mr. J. R. Leaver, the Misses Leaver, Mr. and Mrs. Dd. Roberts, Mrs. Mayne, Miss Bishop, Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, Mr. C. A. Seyler, B.Sc., Miss Phillips, Mr. J. Owen, Mr. Cadwalladr, Mr. E. W. Jones Miss Walters, Mr. Stephen Thomas Mr Hughes, Mrs. Norton, Miss Norton, Mr. B Meager, Miss Williams, Mr. A. W. Halden (clerk to the Swansea School Board), Miss Cole, Mr. Evan Lewis, Mr. Louden, Mr. B. H. Thomas, Mr. L. Collwyn Lewis (hon. sec.), and others. Having first of all explained the meaning of the term "Elementary Schools. Mr. Salmon said before we could decide whether science should be taught, we must examine the principles that ought to determine the admission of any subject into a well-considered course of studies. Practical value was the first principle, educative value was the second principle, and the third principle was aesthetic enjoyment. If based on only one of those principles, the claims of science to a place in every school curriculum deserved considera- tion, and if based ou the three the claims were irresistible. The utility of science was universally admitted. Science helped to satisfy the first and strongest demand of nature-the demand for self-preservation. Increased knowledge of the laws of sanitation, with increased obedience to them, had in the last half-cent ury, added ten years to the average length of human 1 e, am a a the same time, made life more enjoyable and n ore useful, because more healthy. Science was, moreover, the foundation of every art and manufacture carried on by civilised people. The claim of science to be taught for the purpose of developing the faculties was also incontrovertible. The pursuit of science gave a keenness to the senses and a vigour to the reasoning powers, which must be ot immense value in any department of human activity. The study also added to the pleasures of life. In our tune Mr. Herbert Spencer was the most poweilul and uncom- promising advocate of the study of science; but he had somewhat weakened his own case by overstating it. He argued or took for granted, that the greater part of school time should be devoted to science, that every pupil should master every science which is applied to practical purposes and that the chief end of education was the acquisition of useful information. He (the lecturer) agreed with Mr Spencer that science should have a large place in every curriculum, but he did not accept all his contentions or assumptions. It would not be wise, even were it possible, to master every -ology. It was obvious that a complete and rigid study of science was beyond the capacity of young children, and that each study should begin only when the powers of abstract thought were sufficiently developed. This was believed to be, in ordinary cases, at the age of 12 to 14, and to attempt the te-iching of severe science before that age had been reached, was to place the armour of Saul on the body of David. But it did not follow that no scientific teaching should be given before. The perceptive faculties were mani- fested early in children and should be trained earlv Courses of object lessons, arranged with some regard to the laws of psychology, m-eDared with care and given with skill, by directing the attention of children towards tangible"things, and by encouraging them first to observe, then to compare and finally to classify and generalise, furnished, not an^equiva- lent for definite science teaching, but the best substitute possible in the case of those who leave school at an early age. In the planning of courses and in the preparation of the lessons thems-lves, two principles must be kept steadily in view, namely: (1) The end to be aimed at must be clearly understood, and the courses so arranged that they shall lead up to that end; and (2) the lessons must be adapted to the successive stages of mental growth through which the children pass. The ends to be aimed at were three, viz. (1) The cultivation of the perceptive powers; (2) the communication of useful knowledge •, and (3) the cultivation of the powers of generalisa- tion and of inductive reasoning. With the youngest children the first must be the end chiefly aimed at. with the eldest the third. The second should be kept in view in all the lessons, but should not be allowed to dominate any. The matter of the lessons should vary with the age of the children, whit they already knew of the subject, and the time allotted to the lesson. Care should also be taken to make an object lesson, a lesson on object.< and not on languages. With regard to the arrangement of the matter, the teacher should consider what were the process as by which children, if left to themselves, acquired knowledge, and he should imitate those processes as far as may be con- sistent with obtaining more definite results in a briefer period. To begin with classifications 0'1 and definitions, as young teachers copying the method adopted in text books often began, was to reverse the order of nature. The lecturer laid great stress upon fully illustrating object lessons. Their primary purpose was the cultivation of the perceptive powers, and that purpose was entirely defeated if the teacher did not offer materials for the exercise of the children's senses. When available, the best possible illustrations for an object lesson were actual objects; the least effective illustrations were pictures of the objects spoken of. Between the two came models, which were more effective than pictures. In every good kindergarten and infant school, toys and other models were much used, but they were rarely seen in the senior depart- ments. This was a pity, because even a rough model would add wonderfully to the clearness and interest of a lesson. Pictures, when nothing else could be obtained, were indispensable. They should be large enough to be seen by the whole class at once, artistic and of native origin. Blackboard pictures could be made more effective by the use of coloured crayons. Every lesson that dealt with even the elements of physical science should be amply illustrated with experiments. All experi- ments should be carefully prepared, and delicate or difficult experiments rehearsed. Moreover, every experiment should be explained. As to the language that should be used in teaching science to children, he (the lecturer) did not say that technical terms should never be employed, but they should be sparingly employed. To speak, in a lesson to young children on the spider, of palpi and a cephalo-thorax was worse than useless. A teacher's language should be transpnrent- not like a stained-glass window, which may in itself be worth study, but which obscures or excludes the surrounding world. In con- n clusion, Mr. Salmon referred to telling and eliciting. The precept of Jacot, that a teacher should tell his pupils nothing, was not alto- gether reasonable. It should be modified I before it could command universal acceptance. A teacher should tell his pupils nothing that he can make them find out for themselves in school without waste of time. (Applause.) On the motion of Mr. Cadwalladr, seconded by Mr. C. A. Seyler, a vote of thanks was accorded Mr. Salmon for his excellent lecture —the subject of which, by the way, has been very ably dealt with by Mr. Salmon in a book of inestimable value to school teachers Longman's Object Lessons." —

AS IN THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW. EXTRAORDINARY HYPNOTIC DEMONSTRATIONS AT THE SWi-NSEA EMPIRE. Habitues of the Swansea Empire could not fail to be startled at the appearance presented every night this week by their favourite music-hall. A few paces in front of the stage, and raised on what the imagination could very easily conceive to be a couple of biers, stood two huge cases—not exactly coffin- shaped, but looking for all the world like coffins. In each of these a man, prone and still as a corpse, lay beneath red plush palls, his immobile face alone showing plainly against a background of snow-white pillow. A veritable lying-in-state of the living! At the head of each case was posted a negro attendant, dressed smartly in dark, gold- embroidered uniforms. The attendants from time to time bent forward and carefully sponged the lips, chin, and cheeks of the hypnotised patients of Professor Morritt—the great sensation worker of the hour. Deep, evidently, is the trance wrought by the demonstrator. For while the encased men lie buried in red plush and unconsciousness, oft- repeated laughter and applause shake the Empire to its foundations. Nobody with sense left in his head could withhold a grin during the ultra-humorous sketch performed by the Redgrave Farcical Co., or a hand-clap in part payment of the pleasure afforded by such talented artistes as Farrell and Wilmot, Marie Tyler, Frankie Milton, the Sisters Chester, Edward Ind, and Jennie Sydney. Professor Morritt himself does not put in an appearance until the last turn" arrives. He is a tall, strong-nerved man, well remembered by Swansea music-hall patrons as having last brought hither Scott, the missing man of the Ardlamont mystery. For the past few months his hypnotic demonstrations at the Royal Aquarium, London, have been the wonder of scientists. Physicians galore crowded round his mediums, testing their pulsation, their temperature, and their condition generally. The Professor claiuis-tnd no contradiction is forthcoming—that of 50) doctors and a large number of pressmen interested in his experi- ments he has convinced every one as to the bona tides of his performance. Sir James Macfarlane drew attention in the House of Commons to the experiments, but the Home Secretary, replying to a demand made by the hon. member, declined to interfeie with them. All risk is reduced to a minimum by the fact that the mediums, before being hypnotised, are carefully examined by medical men, especially with regard to the condition of their hearts. Again, while lying unconscious, they are visited professionally three times a day, and, should anything wrong be observed, are immediately aroused from their trance. Professor Morritt has carried his demonstra- tions to great lengths. In London he kept two men in a trance for six days and five nights, and one man for ten days and nine nights. It is stated that about twenty per cent. of persons can be hypnotised. Some- times it takes the hypnotist a day before he can exercise his influence over a strange man, but in all cases a second attempt is easier. The benefits claimed for the exercise of hypnotism are that it supersedes the use of anaesthetics. A medium's limbs cm be amputated, his eyes can be taken out and re- placed, his face can be reduced to the size of a cricket ball by means of a galvanic battery, and yet there are absolutely no after effects, These and other statements made by Professor Morritt at each entertainment fittingly intro- duce the extraordinary scene which proves so startling to the audience. On Monday night, t the seven o'clock entertainment, two men were hypnotised. One is destined to remain 1 unconscious until half-past ten to-morrow (Saturday) night; the other, however, was awakened at the second performance, this hypnotising during the first and arousing during the second performance being repeated each night of the week. The five-days medium takes no food of any kind during the whole of his trance. Relays of watchers can be appointed by the public to vouch night and day for his unvarying condition, and the Empire is thrown open from morn till eve, so that on payment of a small sum anybody can go in and inspect the unconscious body. Drs. Forsyth and Anderson examined both sub- jects on Monday night, and amused them- selves by perforating the cheeks of one with a darning-needle. The victim didn't seem to mind, however. When awakened by Professor Morritt, he sat up, stared vacantly around, and then smilingly inquired the time. His strength and spirits were evidently unim- paired, for, on receiving the order, he rose from his couch and went off in search of his coat and boots. Thanks to the enterprise of Mr. Oswald Stol1 Swansea is the second pro- vincial town privileged to witness these ex- periments, being the first. They have made a great otir llere, and, as a consequence, the Empire has been thronged nightly, and, for the matter of that, daily as well. Interest- ing they certainly are beneficial they may yet prove. The demonstration will be con- tinued to-night (Friday), and will conclude at the last performance on Saturday. Our readers should not miss these last occasions of witnessing some very wonderful feats.

SWANSEA HIGH SCHOOL FOR HI HL. PRESENTATION OF PRIZES. The advance cf education is one of the land- marks of the progressive 19th century. Great ca;tngeshave taken place in previous centuries, but in no other age can we trace a parallel to the determined energy of the nation to lay a deep and lasting foundation for its e lujatioaal institutions. Whether or not these <preat i changes will, in the future, bear good fruit, it is difficult to say. Wales is conspicuously to the front in the movement for higher educv tion. We are re-constructing our system upon a basis firmer than that of other couutries. And it is satisfactory to see that one of tha highest principles of modern education "That the education of girls should be cared for no less than the education of boys "—a principle which, though advocated so far back as the sixteenth century, has not been taken up in a true Fpirit of enthusiasm until comparatively recently—is being rigidly kept in view. To the "Mothers of the race," "know- ledge," in the words of the High School motto, is now no more a fountain sealed." The sophistical prejudices which have pre- vented the educational refinement of even domestic virtues have long been done away with, and we find to-day, man and woman fighting the battle of life on an equility, so far, all I?ast, as mental qualifications are con- cerned. There are some who might object, upon grounds more sentimental than otherwise, to the turning of our public schools into inter- mediate colleges, which form the connecting link between the elementary schools and the University of Wales. But there can be no doubt that efficient intermediate schools in Wales are a great necessity in the education of boys and girls alike. The Swansea urauimar School has already been converted into an intermediate school for boys; the Swansea High School for girls, as we remarked last week, will, in all probability, be converted into an intermediate school during the present year. Under the regime of the°Girls' Public Day School Co., and under the able management of Miss Vinter, the Swansea High School has done excellent work for the elementary and higher education of girls. It is to be hoped that under the governing body of the intermediate, its good work will continue and increase. Last Monday evening Miss Vinter held an at home at the Albert Hall, and for the last time under the present conditions prizes were presented to the successful scholars. The hall was tastefully decorated for the occasion by Mr. F. C. Eddershaw. The balcony was festooned in pale-green and salmon-pink on a dark background, set off with Japanese lanterns, fans, flags, &c., in varied profusion. The pillars were draped, a.ad mirrors were placed round the room. Lounges and occasional tables were arranged in the centre, and the general effect was exceedingly pretty. The exquisite floral decora- tions were carried out by Mr. TOOL Barroa. The parents of the pupils attended in large numbers, and the event was fashionable, enjoyable, and novel. By kind permission of Celonel Pike and the officers, the excellent band of the 3rd G. R. V. was in attendance, and the first part of the proceedings consisted of the following selections by the band — March, "The Advance Glurd" (Hume) overture, La Joyeuse (Keler Bela) valse, The Old Lock (LAinotte) grand selection, Honi Soit qui mal y pense (Vimeaux) cornet solo, "Romance et Polonaise" (La Thiere), Bandsman Mills; chorus, "Judis Maccabeus (Handel). Following the above, the pupils, numbering upwards of 150, and all prettily dressed, ascended the platform. His Worship the Mayor (Alderman W.H. Edwards) took the chair, and he was supported on the platform by the Mayoress, Miss Vinter, Mr. L. T. IV.onro (H. M Inspector of Schools), Mr. C. H. Perkins, and Mr. Joseph Hall. Under the baton of Miss Simpson, the pupils sang three songs "I hear the trumpet- sounding" (from the Welsh), Epilogue (John Farmer), and A man's a man for a' that." E tell of the songs was sung in perfect time and tune, and with due regard to expression. It was evident that great care had been bestowed upon the singing, which reflected the highest credit upon the school. Miss Vinter read the following annual report ot the school, which, it will be seen, was of a most satisfactory nature There illl l.ttle need for along report this yetr. Tje work of the school has been carried on aloIl. the same lines as before, and the year ia, bjen one of steady prog.esi.

Mouro propped a vote of thanks- to the Mayoress for her kindness in distribut- ing the prizes. Mr. C. H. Perkins seconded. He said they h-id all had a most interesting entertainment, and everything they hai seen w is calculated to promote their happiness in every possible way. The vote of thanks was accorded with acclamation, and the Mayoress briefly and prettily returned thanks. She s;tid It li:is. given me great satisfaction to bj here on this. ui. st interesting occasion to present the priz'S. I am sure the pupils of the High School must have attended to their duties and studies very urell. I sincerely hope they will do as well in I lic, future as they have done in the past, so that, when their education is ended her. they will enter into life and do, honour to themselves and be a credit to their- teachers (Loud applause.) Miss Viuter proposed a vote of t lanks to the Mayor for presiding. Mr. Joseph Hall seconded. Alderman \V. H. Edwards, in responding,, said it afforded him very great pleasure to be present upon what, he regretted to say, was the list occasion of th:tt kind under the auspices of the Girl's Public D >y School Co., Limited. A debt of gratitu le was due to the present company for what they had done throughout England for the furtherance of the education of girls. They would shortly have- to give notice to terminate their lease ot Llwyn-y-bryti, hut he hoped the Welsh intermediate governing body would arrange terms so that there would be no break in the continuity of the school. He hoped, moreover, that that body would retain the services of Miss Vinter, who had s > ablyr conducted the school in the past. (Applall.) Under Miss Vi at r, the school had been accomplishing good work for some years. H.> understood that last year the company h;vl 3a sehofds under their control-hilt n)- that number was reduced by one—and 7,030 pupils. The schools hid been an educational and a financiil success. He trusted that Swansea people would support the Welsh intermediate schools, whoever might be the teachers. Th- governing body had done all they could to arrange terms with the Public Day School Company and they expected to see the secre- tary down here in a few days, when they hoped to come to a final agreement. if not there must be a break in the continuity of the school, which would up-;et, the present, arrangements. They hoped, however, to obvia.te that, and t^ succeed to the satisf iction of the ratepayers in general. (Applause.) I During the evening, Miss M trgerv Taylor and Miss Belle Davey (Oil behalf ot the- pupils of the School) presented the Mayoress and Miss Vinter with two lovely shower bouquets, composed of t.tli wiiit(4 ro.ses, lily of the valley, and white tulips, with trail- ing ferns and loops of white and green ribbons (the colour of the school). They were sup- plied by Mr. Tom Barron. After the speeches, which were character- ised by a not unnecessary brevity, light refreshments were partaken of, and the band played the following selections March, Tommy's farewell" (O'Keefe) overtuiv, "A hint in the Ardennes" (Marie); euphonium solo, Sehns lclit (Hartmaon), Bandsman Bartlett cornet selo, M ma'' (Adams); valse," Fairy land (Bathoi; grand selection Rigolctto (Verdi.) A most enjoyable and unique gathering ter- minated, at 10 o'clock, with the National Anthem.
