REPORTS.
REPORTS. The Medical Officer reported that the public well at Efelfach, near Llanbrynmair, was covered on the surface by a reddish scum which rendered it unfit for domestic use. He suggested that a bacteriological examination should be mad'\ Twenty-four cases of measles occurred in Gommins Coch district and the school was closed. It was impossible to isolate the cases. The ya: d of Penegoes Inn was in a most insanitary condition arid injurious to health.- The Inspector v.as directed to report on the well.-It was ordered that the school at Commins Coch should be closed for a fortnight.—The Council decided to press for the completion of alterations at Penegoes Inn.— In his report the Inspector (Mr Richard Williams) stated that Green Villa Cottage, Cemmes, was kept in a most insanitary state and was smelling badly. Lecturing and serving notices had no effect. The condition of the house was a source of public danger. There were two cottages at Commins Coch overcrowded, one house contained only one room for eight psrsons. The attention of Sir W. Williams- Wynn's Iccal agent was called to the house and notice was served upon the tenant to find another house. In the other house a family of eight persons slept in one bedroom, and there was a defective chimney. The tenant Lad been served with a notice to leave. Nothing had been done to abate the alleged contamination of the water complained of by Mr William Edward", Gwastadgoed. He was still of opinion that Mr William Rees, Dovey Valley, was doing wrong in discharging sewage to the stream which sup- plied the eatt-la of Mr Edwards with water.— The reports were adopted and with regard to the last-mentioned matter it was decided to serve notices on the owners. The Surveyor reported that the water courses were still closed on Miss Paddock's side of Furnace and Tyngarth road at Sgyborcoed. There were several persons in the neighbourhood who could give evidence that the water courses used to go to Aliss Paddock's land.—It was agreed that the watercourses should be opened and the Surveyor was directed to take action. WALTON BRIDGE. Mr John Rowlands, clerk, wrote that the report of the deputation which met at Aberangeil wi ll regard to Walton Bridge was considered by Dinas Mawddwy Urban Council and it was suggested that committees should be appointed to take steps to obtain designs and estimates of a suitable bridge.-The Assistant Clerk explained that the two County Councils agreed to contribute £100 each toward the cost.—The Surveyor doubted whether the bridge could be built for less than £ 400.—It was decided that a committee should be appointed to meet the represent atives of Mallwyd Council for the purpose of further discussing the matter. GELLIFECHAN CART BRIDGE. Mr M. LI. Jones, clerk, wrote that a resolution was passed by Pennal Parish Meeting strongly protested against the proposed construction of a new cart bridge at UcHifechan.—Mr Oweus gave notice that the previous resolation thould be rescinded at the next meeting.

One of the desks fell down the other d,iy and a child narrowly escaped b ing hur t.-The Clittirman: You have not carried out the recommendations of the Surveyor. There are a. lot of things to be done there. In fact you ought to go in for a new school and have it up-to-date. Mr Campbell It depends what you call up-to- date. This (Machynlleth) ia not up-to-date. I and Mr Hughes can point out many things. The Chairman: A new school would not cost much. Mr Campbell Oh Would it not ? (laughter).— It was agreed that the clerk should write and request that the surveyor should visit both schools. Mr Campbell complained that a certain amount of irregularity existed in respect to appointing a teacher for the U wcbygarreg school. Be was told that a y( ung lady had already been approached to fill the vacancy although the Managers kaew noth. ing of it. The Chairman said it was merely a ric_mmend- ation to tho Manage: iv-ho would have the oppor- tun ty of making the appointment when the young lady eent in her application.
