-I THE LIFEBOAT" GOOD TEMPLAR LODGE. — A public meeting under the auspices of the Barry Dock "Lifeboat" Lodge, I.O.G.T., was held on Monday evening last at the English Baptist Chapel, Holton-road, Barry Dock. The chapel was well filled, and Mr C. Robinson occupied the chair in the absence of the Rev T. Pandy John. Bro. Wallace Davies gave a recitation entitled, Christmas Day in the workhouse: after which a spirited and eloquent address was delivered by the Rev W. Spurgeon, of Cardiff, on Good Templary, its aims and objects." In the course of his remarks Mr Spurgeon referred to a licensed victuallers' meeting held recently at Cardiff, when Mr Lascelles Carr, one of those present, was re- ported to have stated that if the Master was on earth at the present time he would have been present at that meeting, and he (Mr Carr) main- tained he had good authority for making that statement. He (Mr Spurgeon) believed that was one of the greatest blunders Mr Carr had ever made, for he could see Mr Carr was referring to the feast at Cana of Galilee. The temperance question, the speaker went on to state, was be- ginning to make itself felt in the land, and he urged his hearers to do all they could to get the liquor traffic placed under popular control, for he thought that the drink traffic was a system of robbery. Females as well as males were admitted to the Order of Good Templars, and he was glad to say they were doing good work. He hoped the day was not far distant when their efforts would be crowned with success. A recitation entitled, Murdered by drink," was given by Bro. W. E. Clarke, after which a collection in aid of the lodge funds was made, and the meeting terminated with a vote of thanks to the chairman. THE WELSH WESLEYAN CHURCH. connec- tion with the above church, a public tea. meeting was successfully held at the chapel on Wednesday afternoon last, when a numerous company of visitors thoroughly enjoyed the good things with which the tables were richly and nicely regaled.
