COMBINATION. DENBIGH v. BRYMBO. A WIN AT LAST. (BY GWILYM.") These teams met at Denbigh on Saturday, in fine weather, Mr. R. Davies, Wrexham, having charge of the teams, which lined up as follows — Denbigh: Sam Griffiths; Dickens and Dick Thomas; H. Evans, T. A. Davies, and T. Davies; R. M. Evans, E. E. Davies, Stanley Hughes, Randies, and Berwyn Davies. Brymbo: Mason; D. Jones and D. Davies; J. Williams, Venables, and E. A. Roberts; Paton, Bob Jones, H. Dodd, T. H. Lloyd and J. S. Bate. The home team had the choice of ends, and played down the slope. The opening exchanges were of a very even character, but in the first few minutes Griffiths brought off a glorious save from Bob Jones, at full length. After some mid- held play, the home quintette got going, Stan- ley Hughes playing well to his wings. R. M. Evans made headway on the right and getting round Roberts placed the ball in the goal mouth. There was a rush and a scrimmage, and to the delight of the crowd, Stanley Hughes emerged from the crowd of players, and steadying him- self gave Mason no earthly chance of saving his charge. in a very few minuites this success was followed up by Randies adding the second from another centre by Evans. The play steadied down somewhat now, and the home defence were severely tested. A breakaway by E. E. Davies looked like a certain goal. He beat Davies in the race for the ball, and instead of tipping the ball into the net, he shot wildly, his attempt being greeted with derisive laughter by the crowd. Even play followed, both end's being visited in turn. Sam Griffiths made some very effective saves from Dodd, who appeared a dangerous customer. Half time arrived with the score at: Denbigh, 2 Brymbo, o. The home supporters were still doubtful as to the result of the match, for it has been Denbigh's practice to secure a lead at half time, and to ultimately retire beaten. But on the resumption they showed up well, and before a couple of minutes had passed Stanley Hughes added the third goal, which had been very prettily worked by E. E. Davies. Again Mason, was worried, and for fully three minutes, the homesters were like bees in the goalmouth, striking the uprights and crossbar on numerous occasions. For the moment the visitors' lines were cleared, bult Dick Evans secun-ing raced along the line, and put in a fine centTe, Stanley Hughes, who was offside, scoring from a difficult angle. The point was disallowed. Denbigh were undoubtedly the superior team up to now, and but for D. Davies. whose fine defensive work captivated the crowd, there would have been a different score. An individual movement by E. E. Davies secured the fourth goal for Denbigh, who after- wards appeared to slacken down, and the visit- ors bucked to and kept the home defence busy, Sam Griffiths again shining between the sticks. A praiseworthy attempt to score was made by Dodd from the corner kick, who back-heeled the ball which was sailing into the net, when Dick Thomas cleared' in the nick of time. Towards the end of the game, the play of the Denbighites was very loose. Sam Griffiths saved a shot, and ran the ball very near the touch line. Here he was deprived of it by Paton who shot into an empty goal, but the ball did not reach the net until both Dick Thomas and Dickens had head- ed it. Towards the close of the game, Denbigh were again pressing. Final: Denbigh, 4; Brymbo, 1. COMMENTS. The game was not what is expected to see in the combination.. The play of the teams was very scraggy, and especially so was this in the case of the visitors. Stanley Hughes, Colwyn Pay, is a decided accquisition in the centre of the front line for Denbigh. Although small, he has plenty of pluck, and proved himself a great favourite with the crowd.

COAST SENIOR LEAGUE. CARNARVON v. LLANRWST. THE CANARIES REVENGE. The above teams met at the Oval, Carnarvon, on Saturday, Mr. R. D. Richards, BangOfr, refereeing. The teams lined up as follows be- fore a good gate. Carnarvon: G. H. Jones; Evan Hughes and R. Moreton Williams; J. Griffith, R. M. Her- bert an-d Jack Williams; R. H. Roberts, Tom Roberts, Walter Jones, Hugh Roberts, and Johnny Jones. Llanrwst: D. Jones; Carter and W. Trevor Jones Humphrey Roberts, R. D. Richards, and F. Williams Chisholm, W. T. Jones, Cleaves, A. Richards, and D. Rogers Jones. Llanrwst won the toss, and played towards the town goal. Carnarvon pressed, but Carter re- lieved. D. R. Jones ran well, and centred magnificently. Richards hesitated, and Walter Jones robbed him. The Canaries came with a rush, and Walter Jones scored with a swift shot at close quarters. LLarirwst retaliated, but Moreton Williams gave them the order to re- treat. The ball eventually came to Cleave, but he was given offside. F. Williams missed the ball, which went to Walter Jones, who passed to Johnny Jones, but the latter sent behind. Richards passed; to his outside right, when he had ani open goal before him. Llanrwst pressed, but their centre forward shot over the bar. Tom Roberts was penalised for fouling W. Trevor Jones. Nothing tangible came of the free kick. Then Carnarvon, pressed, and Walter Jones scored No. 2, Jones falling in attempting to clear. The Canaries came again, and the visiting goalkeeper, in clearing a shot, accident- ly hit H. Roberts on his forehead. Hugh was off the field for ten minutes. Llanrwst pressed), and both R. M. Williams and E. Hughes were clumsy in their clearances. Richards was shin- ing for Llanrwst, but the home defence was grand, Jones in goal giving a great display. 'Humphrey Roberts shadowed J. Jones, but the little 'un had the best of him on many occa- sions. W. Trevor Jones saved from H. Roberts. Carnarvon were awarded a penalty kick for a foul, and Walter made no mistake, scoring No. 3. Half time arrived with the score at: Carnarvon, 3; Llanrwst, o. On resuming Carnarvon attacked, R H. Ro- berts easily scoring with a terrific shot. Then Jones (Llanrwst) saved from Walter. F. Wil- liams was playing a fine game for Llanrwst, but W. Trevor Jones was penalised for fouling in the penalty area, and Walter Jones again scored. R. H. Roberts had a chance, and he manoeuvred for a position, and scored with a grand shot. The game soon ened with the score Carnarvon, 5 Llanrwst, o. NOTES. It was a good and clean game. Tom Roberts was too fond of playing the man instead of the ball. The Ll.anTw.st defence was better than the attack. Jones in goal (for Llanrwst) played well, but could have saved two of the shots that scored. He was too fond of running out and was penalised for this once. The backs played well, but the left tired towards the end. I fancy he received an accidental kick. W. Trevor Jones was cool, but got flurried when hard pressed. The halves played well, especially their left half—a quiet hard-working and gentlemanly player. The centre and the outside right (D. Rogers Jones) were the pick. They were unlucky in front of goal. They played a grand game, although beaten by five clear goals. For Carnarvon, Jones, in goal, was grand. He never gave a better display. The backs also played well. R. M. Williams has the style of Albert Griffiths, and wiU improve. E. Hughes played well, but is not go sure as he used to be. The halves are the team's mainstay. Herbert was the pick. J. Griffiths had a strong oppon- ent in Dennis, but he did well. Jack was all there, and full of dash. Of the forwards, Walter was the star. He played) magnificently. Tom Roberts was not so good as usual, being too slow. The other three played a good and consistent game.

LLANDUDNO AMATEURS v. BANGOR RESERVES. BANGOR'S CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES CRUSHED. (BY VIGILANT.") Whatever hopes Bangor might have cherished of wimning the League Championship at the eleventh hour have been rudely shattered by their defeat at Llandudno on Saturday. They are now so far behind in the race that they cannot possibly make up the lost ground. The leadership now rests between Banigor University, Llanrwst, Carnarvon United, and. possibly Holyhead. The 'Varsity have nlayed three more games than Carnarvon, and have gathered in seven more points, the position being that with four matches to complete their fixtures they are a point better off than Carnarvon can possibly be from the same number of matches. TAME, BUT PLEASANT FOOTBALL. Neither side was fully represented. Llan- dudno were without Brookes-Evans and R. Davies in the front rank; whilst their places. were taken by Erney Chase and Fraruk Roberts, and J. Morris Davies came into the half back line at the last minute. With the popular captain (Harold Pearson) partnering J. H. Jones in the rear division. The Bangorians were without Ted Owen in goal, who is indisposed, and one or two familiar faces were absent. The following were the sides: —Llandudno Stall- ard J. H. Jones and Jack Brown Tom John- son., and J. M. Davies, W. Arthur Williams, Erney Chase, Johnny Williams, Frank Roberts, and Jimmy Williams. Bangor: Ivor Thomas D. T. Davies and D. J. Thomas; Arthur Owen, Aaron Jones, and W. Parry H. Rowlands, H. J. Davies (Capt.), Edgar Lloyd Jones, H. R. Lewis and Harry Evans. Referee, Mr. Yates, Chester. There was a good attendance, coruffidering the end of season game that it was. Amongst those present were Mr. Victor Andre and the Mayor of Tywyn. The weather was all that could be desiired on this occaaion, a slight breeze that was in evidence at the commence- ment dying away before half time. Much inter- est was centred in the match, for it was expect- ed that Bangor would make every effort to turn the tables on the Comorants for the point they brought home from Bangor. The match, how- ever, was not a very exciting one, and it was late on in the game before the teams appeared to play really in earnest. In the first half es- pecially the players were on the whole rather lackadaisical. The exchanges were pretty even, but Bangor showed excellent midfield work, but were not near so good as Llandudno when they got into the vicinity of goal. Llandudno showed some neat touches of combination, and from a fine combined' run Jbhnny Williams fired a good shot at Ivor Thomas, who met it and partly cleared; but Erney Chase pounced on the sphere and netted amidst applause.. An overhead kick by Jimmy Williams, who thereby got the better of two opponents, was the next feature of interest; but unfortunately for the homesters the ball went over the line. Williams headed a promising attack. Johnnie Williams passing to the right wing whence it was quickly returned for the centre forward to send just over. THE VISITORS PLAY UP. The visitors then took a hand in, the game. Edgar Jones pu/ttinig his left wing in possession. Williams centred for Rowlands to put the ball the wrong side of the post from a few feet out. W. A. Williams seized art opportunity for break- ing away, and at this point the home forwards put in good work. D. J. Thomas, however, checked the rushes time after time. The fine clean back play of this young man was the ad- miration of the crowd, and the stumbling block for the home forwards. Time after time did he do his side wonderful service. From his excell- ent judgment the Homers took up the attack and did not deserve to be behind at the interval. Half time Llandudno, i Bangor, o. TWO MORE GOALS. Upon resumption Bangor went straight for goal, and Stallard stopped a shot fired hard at him by Rowlands, who was so close in that he should not have failed to equalise. A few minutes later, D. T. Davies handled quite un- rueccessarily in the penalty area, and Tom John- son scored with a beauty. The best play of the game was then seen, for Bangor made every effort to improve their position. After combin- ing with skill in midifield, and working, their way to the region of goal, as they did many a time, a goal seemed more than probable, but the finishing mOVffiIlents were weak im the ex- treme. Both J. H. Jones and Harold Pearson played admirably, and no doubt this accounted for much of Bangor's non-success near goal. Nevertheless their shooting was execrable. At length Parry scored from a free kiak for a foul on Edgar Jones, Stallard being evidently un- sighted as he made no-effortto, save. Both ends were visited before the close, but neither team could raise a scoring shot near goal. Final: Llandudno, 2; Bangor, 1. BRIEFLETS. There was little to choose between the teams, and a draw would possibly have been a fair reflex of the play. The match was for the benefit of Willie Wynne and Willie Edwards, two young players who have done good service to the club, and received injuries in so doing that incapacitated them for some time. Willie Wynne was on the line, and it was pleasing to see him so well recovered. The game altogether was a very pleasing one, and I could have wit- nessed play for another hour. I was dis- appointed not to see R. Hughes, of Rhyl. turn up. I have heard a lot of this player, but never seen him on the field. This was the last home appearance of the Amateurs this season, and to signalise it with a victory seemed fitting.

HOLYHEAD v. PWLLHELI. THE PENGUINS MERCILESSLY THRASHED. A great deal of interest was manifested in this League fixture at Holyhead, for the Penguins are the finalists for the Coast Senior Cup with Hint. Holyhead know what gaining that trophy means. The Penguins, however, had not their Cup-team on view, and it was fully expected in Holyhead, even if they had, that the Sealaxks would be able to vanquish the South Carnarvonshire men. Owing to the awkward journey from Pwllheli to Holyhead the Penguins were late in arriving in the Port town of Angle- sea, and it was sometime after four o'clock when the game was started. The game was a very one sided one, and would be monotonous to describe, inasmuch as eight goals were scored against the Penguins, and those mostly in the second moiety. The Sealarks were in excelsis over their 8-0 victory.

BLAENAU FESTINIOG v. CONWAY. THE JA-CKDAWS DOWN AGAIN! The eleven that went from Conway on Satur- day to do duty for the ancient town in the League deserve all praise' for their courage, for several otf their best players were engaged at Chester in the Railway Temperance Shield' com- petition. Thus was the Conway ranks robbed of much of its strength. However, they had that rare old sport in charge of them, Mr. Tom Edwards, and he always sees the bright side of things. The game was not a great one by any means. Jack Jones scored first for the Flamingos, and W. R. Owen followed with a second, whilst Bob Roberts scored the third. Tom Morgan them drew blood for Coniway. During the game that popular player, Jack Jones, was so injured that he had to leave the field. Two more goals were put on, Sam Parry for Conway and Johnny Hughes for Festiniog. The Flamingos therefore won a dis-spiritimg game by four goals to two.

COAST JUNIOR LEAGUE. LLECHID SWIFTS v. HOLYHEAD RESERVES. THE LLECHID MEN DRAW WITH A PENALTY. This was a return League fixture at Llan- llechid. Mr. C. J. Thomas, of Bangor, was the referee. When the Llechids visited Holyhead they were gruelled to the tune of 7-0. And here was the chance for revenge. Three of the best players of Llechid were however absent. The ,following were the teams:- Llechid: R. A. Griffith; Joe Hughes and Hughie Lewis; W. Griffiths, W. Jones, and Tom Jones; T. L. Roberts, T. C. Hughes, W. Thomas, George Williams, and W. Jones. Holyhead Reserves: Allen; W. Space and R. Lewis; Brown, H. Williams, 0. Williams, H. O. Jones, and J. Jones. The homesters had the best of the game in the first half, but H. Williams managed to score for Holyhead with a fine shot. In the second half Holyhead scored an offside goal; and Holy- head began to press severely after this. And a chance was given the home custodian to show his mejttle. His performance gpreatly pleased the crowd. The Llechid men managed to keep their goal intact, and on the other hand gained a penalty, which was successifully taken, and an exciting game, ended in a draw of one goal each.

FRIENDLY. COLWYN BAY v. BANGOR NORMAL COLLEGE. THE GULLS DEFEATED. There was a good attendance on Saturday afternoon OIL the new ground of the Colwyn Bay Club' to witness a friendly fixture between these clubs. The weather was ideal for the game, and in consequence the ground was in good con- dition also. The following were the sides —Colwyn Bay Hallwood; H. Price Evans and 0. E. Wil- liams Ned Griffiths, Walthidngihouse, and Dick Rowlands; Hornby, Normam Pritchard, R. E. Jones, Claude Mclntyre, and J. Hughes. Normals: Tom Williams; Ferguson and A. Cotton McLellland, Walter Evans and Phillips; Blacklock, Hopwood, Hannaby, Roose, and Rodgers. NED GRIFFITHS SCORES FOR BANGOR. The Normals at once showed that they were not going to give an exhibition of drawing room football, and their movements were delightful. It fairly made the home side wake up. Black- lock on the extreme right centred splendidly, and Ned Griffiths had the misfortune to see his efforts to clear turned into a goal for the Oity. men. After this the homesters were put to a severe gruelling, shots being rained Du, on Hall- wood, who stood the ordeal well. At length the Gulls got away and paid a similar compliment before Tom Williams, and one of the Normal players during the pressure gave a penalty. HaIIwood was brought from his own goal to put the ball past his vis-a-vis. This was the stimulus that sent the Normals off in one of their characteristic bursts, and Roose—fine name—rushed through and brushed aside all opposition, and defeated Hallwood with a' regular beauty. Half time arrived with the Normals leading by 2-1. THE NORMALS SUPERIORITY. The second half was commenced with the Normals showing superior tactics, and the Bay had their work cut out as to how to avert the downfall of their citadel. Hallwood was given plenty to do, and that he did well. Once he ran out to meet a long shot, which he mis- judged in distance, and Haninaby was so excited at seeing an empty goal in front of him shot over the bar. Afterwards the Bayites had a short look in, but altogether the game was the Normals, who fully deserved to win. Final: Normal College, 2; Colwyn Bay, 1. BRIEFLETS. Several absentees from the Bay ranks made a difference in the team. The game was pleasine and the best team won.

The British Constitution. This is to be regarded in two ways. The sys- tem of Government by King, Lords, and Com- mons, called the British Constitution, and the physical constitution of the British people, a nation which has for centuries enjoyed the proud reputation of being the bravest, stoutest, hardiest people on earth. During the next few decades, the British people will doubtless have to grapple with problems which will put their old time pluck and energy to the full test. There is no fear for the outcome if Britons keep themselves alert, physically effic.ent, sound in wind, limb, body, and brain. The food of the people is, of course, amongst the most important of all the considerations in striving to keep robust, keen, and ready. Eat something every day contain- ing an abundance of Currants. The rich pro- portion of nutriment they contain is an efficient factor in building up a hardy, active constitu- tion. Ask your grocer for a' free copy of the latest little book, entitled Home Recipes for Cooking Currants," which shows the many ways of preparing Currants for the table.
