NO PATCH ED-VP PEACE. I

Three years ago we were compelled to war now at the beginning of the fojrth year of the war a great many jjeoplo wish us to talk peace. It isjuit as well that woe should clear our minds of cant. The war lias opened our eyes to tho world-wide ramifications of German methods of espionage, of propaganda and of penetration. German diplomacy has never been held in respect by the civilised nations; but the revelations of tho last lew years have taught us nothing unlese they have opened our eyes, to tho fact that no intrijuo is too base, no methbds too dishonour- able, no instruments too vile for Germany's nee in her attempts to grasp the domination of the world. And since German gold is plentiful for the uses of corruption, it will surely find m every nation a certain number of men prepared to sell themselves to treachery. Fortunately the British people arc not in the market, but we. fear that cannot be said of every Briton Ger- many has her agents even amongst our own people, and these agents are clever enough to find their du^os amongst the pacifists. They wish to talk peace in order to create divi- sions amongst tho civil population here at home; and, chief of all, they would like to talk that sort of paace that would emphasise th'e varying "interests" of the Allied nations in order that the Unity of the alliance might be undermined- Wo are not talking th-xt sort of pJace, and we do not wish it. Let therg be no mistake as 10 the high aim of tho British people. There never was a time when the better minds of the nation were more thoroughly in accord with the doctrine that peace is the greatest of all British interests. We did not enter tho war three years ago for any purpose of gain. There is no eug gestion even to-day that either Britain or America wishes to possess a single inch of 1.110 continent of Europe. We desire no territorial adv.-mt.ijre. If th:re ii on0 "catchword" that we would wish to impress upon our OWl: people and upon the people of the Allied nations it is this, thA; the piesenc war for us would have its greatest value and use in so far as it suc- ceeded in putting an end to war for all time. And we are all the more determined to go on with the wa). becausa we see, as yet, no sign that tho Central Powers havo ip-st their illusions that they are goiniy to dominate the world oy vineans of a war machine. The irreparable de- struction of that war nuichine lias been the one object th,t wc have had in view since first we (leo%v the sword. We will not consent to pur up our sword until we have accomplished that purpose Any peace i.i'.nt wfll enabb the enemy 1 to still engage in his "national industry" cf war will only postpone the triumph of brute force. That is why wo say that there can be no patched-up" peace. There has always been a suspicion that Ger- many was aiming at the hegemony or Europe as a prelude to the seizure of world-power. It 1111.8 become clear to m during tha past three years that German Kidtur is in very truth founded in blood rod iron. The history of Prussian militarism has been taid bare to us all. Wo have seen how tho "makers" of German; have always employed their periods of pC:lce in war-like preparation so as to be prepared to strike when diplomacy ba3 discovered a fitting opportunity. Thus jt was when Prussia made war against Denmark il' 1864, against Austria two years later, and against France in 1870. If no other means could be found of employing the war maohine, the Prussian diplomats d'd not hesitate to manufacture a grievance and even to descend to forgery. Bismarck boasted that the German Empire was founded on blood and iron, and the Biemarckian tradition survived that great man's fall. The revelations" of the last couple of years show how Germany has sought her opportunity. She must n-ver again be al- lowed to play the part of the European bully; and wc. shall not talk peace until we have put ati d w(,, ?;jia l l not talk p, this beyond a doubt. When we talk about "wai- aims" at the beginning of tho fourth year cf war, this then is our compendious, formula, as indeed it has been from the beginning. We fight for full reparation for all the damage which Germany and her Allies have done during the past three yenrs; we fight for the complete restitution of the territories which Germany and her Allies liavo seized with the strong hand; we' fight for the irreparable destruction of the war machine which has been the instrument and temptation of Germany in the past; we are go- ing to establish the rights and security of the mltion of Europe on' tho firm basis of inter- national right. Until we succeed in these ob jeefcs there can be no "peace." "I.' r. >

I NOTES OF THE WEEK. Faetg and figures presented to the Governors of iii,3 Welsh National Memorial Association at Llanduono on Saturday prove the increasing value of this beneficent scheme. It is too early yet. to be able to judge of its cumulative effect on the national health, and compaiative figures would be still less reliable since the advent of war, for there appears to be good reason to believe that military service con- d'itione have aggravated tubercular diseases and brought under treatment of late many men who would probably have been immune from attack had they remained in civilian life. For what are doubtless good Reasons we are not told ddi- nitely how many soldiers were included in the 40,000 patients dealt with last year. The returns do, however, show a marked increaso in the nunibci of persons accommodated in sanatoria and of thoso examined. Tlil,.i last fact suggests that doctor's are referring more cases to the Association, and it is to hi; hoped they will do 00 still more freely. The reed of treating patients in the earlier stages of -he disease wag properly empnasised on Saturday, and on the doctors rests tho responsibility of reporting cases with- out delay. « < A few critics have charged the- with extravagance in certain departments. With tha object of inquiring into these allegations a strong committee has row been formed, and in due course wo shall ha ;c a report that- will help the public to form their own opinion on the matter. It is possible that the enormous advance in the prices of food and practically everything necessary to keep the institution going at pre- sent has led many people to form wro ig con- clusions It is gratifying to hear that the Trea- sury is to contribute to the increased expendi- ture. Another handsome gift of stock to tho value of £ 20,000 is announced, and tlii6 is to be set apart as the nud us of a contingoniy fund to meet the depreciation of securities consequent on the war. The Government are offering to subsidise housiuo- schemes to bj carried out by local authorities 'wh'n war is over. An important circular to that effect has just been audressed to town, urban and rural district councils by the. Local Government Board. Neither the form nor the extent of the giants is indicated, but the Board jpiomke "substantial ifnancial assist- ane0," so that help really worth having may be expected by local authorities prepared to push forward workmen's dwellings schemeg when the "boys" como home. Forms requesting full par- ticulars concerning local neede, of schemes pre- pared or in contemplation, sites aijd estimates of cost accompany the circulars, and as theso are to be returned by October 15ili next it will be realised tbat the Department is bent on busirfcBfl. Although maell has been written about the Cheshire cat (says the Chester Co-want), n.o one has told ua its origin. A correspondent wl)o knows Anglesey well asks whether he bag not dis- covered the original Olwshire cat, engraved on a. stone on the north side of Beaumaris Castle. It is a typical grinning Cheshire oat, and it is plausibly conjectured that this may be the ori- ginal'Cheshire oat, because the first Governor or Constable of Beaiin-iaris Castle, a member of the Buckley family, was himself a Cheshire man. < u Possibly the first instance in Carnarvonshire of the use of electricity to aid crop production is to be found in the gardens at Plasybryn, Carnar- von. The working of this installation is exciting keen in tercet, and, in the event of its yielding the success which is now confidently expected from it, Sir Thomas Roberts, it is said, contem- plates its application on a larger scale to the pro- duction of field crops. In different parts of the country installations have already been erected, and from these experiments, doubtless, valuable information wm be forthcoming as to the effect of an overhead electrical discharge upon crop production.

WELSH TROOPS IN THE GREAT ATTACK MAGNIFICENT BEHAVIOUR." I i Describin the great Allied a t-tack which begun on lg uosd&y, the special correspondent of the Ti-uus says —• To attempt to allot praise to one body of our tic-ops above another would be absurd. No man, surely, would dare t-o do it. But I should like, first of all, to bear testimony, on the strength of all the evidence that rcachts me, to the mag- nificent behaviour of the Welsh. The Welsh troops in any iiuiiibti-s litve had no opportunity to show their mettle in a grand attack since the days of Mametz Wood a year and more ago. They had a place of honour to-day, and they wore worthy of the place. They had against them the Kaiser's own pets, the famous 'Berlin Cockchafers,' and never, perhaps, lias a famous regiment been more roughly handled, or worse outclassed in fighting power, man for man." HEROISM AT ST. JULIEN. The Petit Parisien' s correspondent (says all Exchange telegram) pays homage to the mag-aifi. cent heroism of the Welsh. It was about three in the afternoon, says the correspondent, when the Welsh, havitrg cleared all the enemy trenches bv means of grenwdes, penetrated into St. Julien from three sides, and, after fierce fighting in the streets, had to lay siege to each house in turn. The carnage was frightful, but the Welsh covered themselves with glory. The Prussian Guards obeyed their orders to die on the spot, and no prisoners were taken.

I > GALLANT YOUNG OFFICER AWARDED MILITARY CROSS. Second Licut. Philip James Hudson, Shrop- shire Light Ihfantry, has been awarded the Mifi- tary Cross. He personally led parties with sup- plies of ammunition and bombs "into the front line through heavy hostile barrage, and on one occa- sion assisted the troops in the front line to.repel a combined attack at a critical moment. The example he set to his men was splendid. It was entirely due to his exertions that the ammunition supply was maintained. Sec. Lieut. Hudson is the son of Mr and Mrs Charles Hudson (sister of Mr H. C. Vincent, Bronwydd, Bangor). He is only 19 vears of age, and was educated at Shrews- bury School. k

I BISHOP OF ST. ASAPH'S WEDDING. I (Pi-oilt Our Own Correspondent.) The marriage arranged between the Bishop of St. Asaph and Mies Margaret Armitstcad, younger daughter of the Rev Canon Armitstead, of Grange Hall, and vicar of Sandbach, took place at St. Mary's Church, Sandbach, on Wednes- day. Miss Armitstead, who has been a most untir- ing and zealous worker for the British Red Cross, has been nursing in the South of England, Somer- ford Park, Cheshire, and later on at the Red Cross Hospital at Rhyl, and until a few months ago extended her energies to canteen work in France. Although it was intimated that the wedding was to be a. very quiet one, owing to the hlness of the bride's father, it in no way prevented the road leading to the fine and ancient edifice, which is the pride of the quaint old-world town of Sandbach, being thronged with onlookers, who had come from all parti of the country side, and the church itself was packed with parishioners and well-wishers, who have known the bride all her life. The altai-, rails, and chancel were beau- tifully decorated with ferns and white flotoers, mostfy marguerites, the bride's name-flower. There was no choral service, but while the congregation wore assembling, the organist, Mr W. Nock, played appropriate music, including: FiavsH'e "Prayer," "In Native Worth" (Ha.ydn), "Bridal March" (Lohengrin), and "Marche Nup- tiale." Shortly before halt-past two, the time fixed for the ceremony, the Bishop arrived with his best man, Sir Watkin Williams-Wynn of Wynnstay, and a few minutes elapsed before the bride entered on the arm qf her eldest brother, ihe Rev. John Armitstead, vicar of Holmes Chapel, who gave her away. She was simply and beautifully dressed in pale grey, in which a few touches of pale blue we.re introduced, and she wore a toque to match. The officiating clergyman was the Rev. Edward Armitstead, vicar of Goostrey. Relations and friends in the church included: Miss Armitstead, Mrs Henry Armitstead, Rev. John Armitstead, Rev. Laurence and Mrs Armitstead, Rev. Ed- ward and Mrs Armitstead, Mr and Mrs A. N. Hornby, Mr and Mrs V, a.%cy Rev. Alfred and Mi's Hoyds, Mr and Mrs John Royds, Miffios Woodgate, Rev. C. E. and Mrs Muekieston, Rev. H. S. and Mrs Ware, Hon. Mrs Hindison, Mrs Bebbington, Miss Walker, Misses Latha.m, Mrs B. Plant, Mrs Farquhar, Misses SJakn, Mrs Glazebrook, Mrs Kay, Mrs A. E. Stuger, Mrs 0. Nock, Mrs Bailey, Mrs Court, Misr, Helen Court, j and many others. After the ceremony the organist played Men- delssohn s "Wedding" March," and as the Bishop mid Mrs Edwards emerged from the church door a pretty feature of the afternoon was the hoist- ing of the flag on the church tower, simultaneous- ly with the clash of the fine peal of bells. There being no reception, the Bishop and Mrs Edwards left immediately for North Wales, where the honeymoon is to be spent. Included in tile long list, of presents received was L. gift from the officials of Sandbach Church, who gave the bride silver flower vases as a token of re- cognition of her work in the parish.

^—mm———mmmmmmm——— ■, I BANGOR CORPORATION I FERRY INN. I INTERESTING LICENSING QUESTION. I I inir Alfrocl writing from the form Club, London, on the SLI,ujcct oi -.lie Ban- gov City Council's licence for the Gazelle Inn, Garth Ferry, says Mr Vincent, was misinforms as to the law when he said it was illegal to keep the place open as a licensed hcu..se ii-ltlictit sell- ing intoxicating liquors. Mr Davies, quoting; from his "Handbook on the Licensing Act-? and their Admin stir, tion," eays a licence^ is under certain obligations to travellers, but these do not necossarily extend to the supply of intoxicants. He adds: "But all wouid-bo customers aro not ^travellers,' and every public-house is not all inn which, at common law. is 'a house (whether licensed or not for the sale of intoxicants) 1,1 which travellers are accommodated with victuals and lodgings.' It would be regrettable if the Bangor authorities were deferred from getting- effect to their laudable desire fo suppress an un- necessary or undesirable licence by an erroneous view as to the'r hgal position." Replying to Mr Davies, Mr II. C. Vincen* s.-ys:- I know, nothing at all about the- handbook on the Licensing Acts and their administration which Mr Alfred T. Davies refers to, but I aJO not prepared to accept the law upon this sub' jact from it or from Mr Davies. "The law was clearly laid down in the caJI of R. v. Smith (65 J.P. 521), decided in 1? long after the dhoKHon in R. v. Rymer, referred to by Mr Davies, in which an innkeeper was In- dtc-t-ed and convicted at the Hants Quarter sions for refusing to supply certain soldiers, LIOY mg travellers, with refreshments rV-r which thol, were willing to pay. The jury found that, thol- were refused without sufficient cause, and it \flI; held that tl' i's was equivalent to a. verdict o* "Guilty," and that an inkoeper was bound to supply refreshments, including intoxicat iniS J liquor, to any traveller willing to pay for then* and behaving in a proper manner.
