Newest Form of Tithes. I CARNARVONSHIRE TEACHERS DOCKED SALARIES. RESPONSIBILITY FOR RELIGIOUS TEACHING. A CHURCHMAN'S DEDUCTIONS. F.ollowing up the West Riding judgment, the Carnarvonshire Education Committee decided on Thursday that from and after February next the teachers in the non-provided schools of the county, whose present agreements with the managers remain in force on that date shall have their salaries reduced by one-tenth. Mr D. P. Williams presided at the meeting, when the Finance Committee reported that at the suggestion of Mr D. P. Williams they had considered the decision of the Court of Appeal in the case of Rex v. West Riding of York- shire County Council with regard to the pay- ment for religious instruction in non-provided schools. Mr Williams informed the committee that he had desired the secretary to take counsel's opinion as to the exact position of the committee in the matter. That opinion was that the local education authority was not entitled to pay the expense of religious instructions, and that in all probabilty the teachers could re- cover the balance of their salaries covering the amount of the deduction made by the edu- cation authority from the school managers, who would be personally liable, whether found- ation or representative managers. After full consideration the Finance Committee announced that they adopted the following resolutions 1. That the managers of each non-provided school in the county be required, on or before October 15th next, to serve all teachers engaged at the school and in the service of this authority with notice to determine their engagement on January 31st next, after which date the education authority will cease to pay the teachers for the time devoted by them to imparting denomina- tional religious instruction in such schools, for which, as the education authority are advised, the managers are personally liable." "2. That a copy of the foregoing resolution be forwarded to every teacher in the non pro- vided schools of the county, and that they be informed that in any case where the existing agreement has not been determined by the managers the education authority will make a deduction of one-tenth from the salaries of all teachers in non-provided schools from and after February 1st next, to cover the proportion of time devoted by them to imparting religious instruc- tion in such schools, in accordance with the official time-table now in force." The committee approved of the action of Mr D. P. Williams in taking steps to obtain counsel's opinion upon this matter, and thanked him for his attention thereto. Mr Richard Davies now moved that the resolu- tions of the committee be confirmed and carried out. THE ONLY CHURCHMAN. Mr J. Issard Davies, the only Churchman present at the meeting, appealed to the com- mittee to delete these resolutions, in the interest of justice and peace, and also because the resolutions would land the committee into serious difficulties. The resolutions involved the ques- tion as to whether in the future the elementary schools should have religious education or whether they should be purely secular. Until the superior courts reversed it, the West Riding judgment was the law but the Finance Com- mittee in their recomendation, went outside the West Riding judgment, and laid it down that it was illegal to give religious instructions in the elementary schools. Whatever was not obligatory, the recommendation implied, was not permissible. If that principle were accepted it would be fatal to all religious instruction, because the com- mittee were no more empowered to give religious instruction in the Council schools than they were in the voluntary schools. Mr D. P. Williams's anxiety about their not being led away into illegality would come, he had no doubt, as a revelation to the non-provided schools (Laughter.) It seemed to him the case for counsel had beerf pr, pared for a special answer, and that the wish was father to the thought. (Laughter.) Why could not Mr Williams and Mr Evan R. Davies, the secretary, also ask counsel the question "Is it illegal to pay for undenominational in- struction in non-provided and in provided schools?" That question Mr Issard Davies argued, was answered in Mr Justice Farwell's judgment—that the authority could not pay for the one any more than for the other. Did the com- mittee seriously mean to exclude all religious instruction from the elementary schools (cries of "No")? That was what the resolutions before the meeting would amount to. What was sauce for the non-provided goose was sauce for the provided gander. (Laughter). The committee had collared the endowments and the buildings of the non-provided schools, and now repudiated their share of the consideration. If secular education were abhorrent to the committee, as the committee would wish the public to believe, the only honourable course was to ask the Government to pass a suspensory bill enabling them to pay for religious instruction in both classes of schools. A similar thing was done in the case of the Cockerton judgment. As to the supposed fear of surcharge, surely what the L0cal Government Board did in the case of the sur- charge of the London School Board, after that judgment a Radical Government would not less generously do in the case of a Radical body. (Laughter). Nearly all non-provided schools had trust deeds, and the committee would lose the grants unless they gave the religious instruction required under those trust deeds. Why could not that committee accept the advice of Lord Stanley of Alderley to the Anglesey County Council-to wait the result of the proposed legis- lation. He moved that the resolutions be elimin- ated. The Chairman, as a matter of form, asked for a seconder. Mr Issard Davies remarked that he represented the minimum minority. (Laughter). His amendment was not seconded. THE REPLY. He did not think anyone could suggest that these questions were one-sided. The reply was to the effect that, it being no part of its duty to provide religious instruction in non-provided schools, the authority was not under any obliga- tion to pay the expense of that instruction. The question whether the local education authority was entitled, if it thought fit, to pay for such religious instruction was not decided, but counsel was of opinion that the authority was not entitled to pay the expense of such instruction. It seemed the logical result of the decision that, as it was not part of its obligation to provide religious instruc- tion, the local authority could not voluntarily devote the ratepayers' money to such purposes. In the event of the authority being surcharged, he did not think the proportion could be recovered from the trustees or managers. As to the third question, he thought that in all probability the teachers could recover the balance of their salaries from the managers, and that the manag- ers were personally liable, but that they could be recouped out of any moneys in their hands appli- cable for the school. He did not think there would be any distinction between the representa- tive and foundation managers. The local educa- tion authority could not recover back payments either from the teachers or managers. The Finance Committee, Mr Davies went on to say, proposed no undue haste in the matter. All teachers other than head teachers could be served with notice to terminate their engagements in six weeks' time, the head teachers only being entitled to three months' notice. The committee thought it quite possible that legislation might settle the matter, and it might not be necessary to enforce the notices served upon the managers and teach- ers, but the Education Committe would be in such a position that, if the West Riding decision were finally established, the committee would not be further liable, after January 31st, for this money. As to Mr Issard Davies's contention with regard to religious instruction in the Council schools, the committee had full control there. It was absolutely within the province of the committee to say what should be taught in the Council schools, but with regard to the non-provided schools, the control of religious instruction was vested elsewhere. It was for that reason that there was no obligation to pay for it in those schools. Alderman Hugh Hughes, Conway Is it clear that the managers appointed by this committee will be liable for the proportion of the teachers' salaries in respect of religious instruction ? The Secretary They will be liable after Janu- ary 31st next. (Laughter). Mr Maurice Jones You had better all clear out by then. (Laughter). THE DENOMINATIONALISTS' OPPOR- TUNITY. Mr Richard Davies said it had often been thrown in their faces, that they did not pay for denominational teaching out of the rates. Here was a good chance for the supporters of denomi- national teaching to get out of the difficulty with honour to themselves. Let them step forward and say, We will bear that expense." Mr Robert Roberts (Llandudno) thought that the proper door for that matter to come before the committee was not that of the Finance Com- mittee. He suggested that it should first of all come before the Education Committee, which comprised all the members. The Chairman held that the matter came up quite regularly, for the Education Committee could now discuss the whole question, and deal with it as they thought fit. He asked the sec- retary to read the questions put to counsel and counsel's reply. Mr Evan R. Davies, the secretary, said the questions were based on the West Riding decision, which the committee were in duty bound to consider. CASE SUBMITTED TO COUNSEL. The questions asked were:-(i) Whether a local education authority is compelled to make a proportionate deduction from all salaries payable to teachers in non-provided schools immediately and henceforth on account of time devoted to imparting religious instruction or, alternatively, (2) can such proportion be recovered as a debt from the trustees or managers of the individual schools affected if the local education authority continue to pay the salaries in full ? (3) If the deduction is made from the salaries of the teachers by the local education authority, it is presumed that the teachers can recover the balance of their salaries from the managers. If so, are the managers personally responsible, and will the represt atative managers appointed under section 6 of the Education Act, 1902, be equally responsible with the foundation managers ? (4) Can the local education authority recover the proportion of salary which seems to have been improperly paid since the appointed day either from the teachers or the managers ?

An Interesting Spectacle. 't. Just at present there is apparently an epidemic of sandwichmen in Liverpool they are seen parading the streets everywhere—not in one's and twos, but in batallions. They are met at every corner, all the human driftwood of Liver- pool seems to find its way down the streets between two boards. Evidently sandwichmen are the fashion everybody who has anything to advertise seems to use sandwichmen The lesser lights in the business world follow the example set by their larger and more energetic rivals. The craze was started by Messrs Cooper & Co., whose name regularly appears in our advertising columns. Since Cooper commenced turning them out in hundreds there have been many imitators, but no one seems to do it on such a gigantic scale. This week the Liverpool people have been treated to the spectacle of nearly two miles of blue and white sandwich hoards wobbling along in single file. Messrs Cooper & Co., are using them to advertise tea. Whether this form of advertising pays or not remains to be seen, but one thing is certain, and that is that several hundred poor starving men will thank Messrs Cooper for a few days work, even though it does happen to be par- ading the gutter with a tea poster.

For Disestablishment. WELSH LIBERALS TAKING A CENSUS OF CHURCH CONGREGATIONS. Mr. Herbert Roberts, M.P., presided over a meeting of the Welsh Disestablishment Com- mittee at Shrewsbury on Monday, being sup- ported by Mr. Lloyd-George, Colonel Ivor Her- bert, M.P., and Mr. Stewart Robinson, M.P. Reports were presented from all the Welsh counties showing the progress being made with the collection and preparation of evidence, and it was stated that there are now a number of witnesses prepared to give evidence on the case generally for Diseistablishmenit at the eairliest sit- tings of the Church Commission. A census has been taken in certain localities showing the. actual attendance at Divine service in churches and chapels, and arrangements are being made for a similar census in other coun- ties, that for Monmouthshire being fixed for next Sunday. In certain cases attendance at the Church Sun- day service was found! to be very small, in one instance the congregation consisting of one per- son only. A fortnight's tour for Mr. William Jones, M.P., in South Wales was arranged. He will com- mence with the conference at Swansea on Friday next. Mr. Lloyd-George expressed himself highly satisfied with the progress being made.

Mr. Evan Roberts's Message to America. The three Welsh Revivalists, the Rev. Seth Joshua, and Messrs Sam Jenkins (the Welsh Sankey) and W. T. Morgan, who this week sailed for America to conduct a series of revival services in the United States among the Welsh churches, re- ceived on the eve of their departure a telegraphic message from Mr Evan Roberts, the Welsh Revival leader, who had also been invited to go with them to America, as follows :— Tell them (the Welsh people of America) to seek from God the victorious experience. I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me, and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me.-EVAN ROBERTS. Mr Roberts is at present staying with Mr and Mrs Penn Lewis, of Great Glen, Leicester.

ADVERTISING PAYS.—A judicious trades- man about to advertise will be careful to ascer- tain which is the most popular paper in his dis- trict, which is the most widely spread, an» which presents to its readers the most exclu- sive features and genuine literature. There are tradesmen who think if they can get an adveJ' tisement inserted in a newspaper which takes them at any price, that they have scored point in economy, experience generally shoWS them their folly, and they have been glad to ex- pend a little more with another newspaper to have their announcements properly brought be- fore the public.
