ABERDOVEY
ABERDOVEY Cricket Matches.—On Tuesday a cricket match was played at Aberdovey between Aberdovey and JtJorth. Borth batted first and scored 95, the best scores being made by T. G. Ibbotson, 35: and C. M. Russell, 27. Aberdovey replied with 258 the best scores being H. James, 88; H. Jones, 67; and A. Wilkes, 33. On Wednesday a match was played between Aberdovey and Towyn. Towyn made 58 in one innings and Aberdovey 120. The best scores for Aber dovey were H. James, 22; H R Sheppard^ 16; and A. 0. Dyer, 13. On Saturday, Aberaovey met Machynlleth at Machyn- lleth. Aberdovey batted first, but as the game was played on matting, to which they were not accustomed, they only scored 25. Machynlleth followed with 28. In the second innings Aberdovey scored 49 for four wickets down and one retired hurt. Lifeboat.—On Tuesday, the day was observed as Lifeboat day. The lifeboat was drawn through the town with the crew on board by one horse and a large number of voluntary and paid hauliers, accompanied by a large number of col- lectors, both boys and girls and two men carrying bags all poles to collect from the windows of the upper floor of the houses as they passed. After parading the town. the boat was brought back to the house and launched on the river where the crew went through an exercise in rowing and sailing. The collectors made A good col- lection. Amongst others present were the Rev. Canon Rowlands, vicar, and chair- man of the committee; Mr. F R. G. Wright, R.N., secretary; Mr M L Lewis J. P., Mr. E. B. Proctor. J.P., and Dr.' Jackson, members of the committee. Signs of Development.—Preparations are being made for the erection of a new railway station more consistent with the status and aspirations of Aberdovey as p6 high class resort. The site for the pro- posed building is slightly north of the present station. It is understood that a good deal of the materials from the dis- mantled station at Pwllheli will be utilised in the construction of the pro- posed building. This is but another in- dication of the progress of Aberdovey, which promises to be much more rapid in the future than has been the case dur- ing late years owing to the break up of several estates, and their acquisition for building purposes. Hopes are enter- tained that the provisions of the Budget in reference to land will tend to bring other sites into the market ere long. Through the fore-thought of the local members of the Urban Council, on whose behalf Mr E. L. Rowlands acted, the commodious building known as Aberdovey Hall, which has Mr so long been a fam- iliar landmark near the Railway Station, has been secured with a view to its being offered to the Council as trustees for the ratepayers at the price paid for it. The land fronting the main road is undoubt- edly valuable and likely to become still more so as the development of the town continues. It is expected that the rate- payers will show sufficient acumen and public spirit to be equal to the occasion and take advantage of an opportunity which is not likley to recur. Temperance.—The weekly meeting was held on Sunday evening at the Congrega- tional Chapel and was largely attended, many failing to procure seats. The pre- sence of a large number of English visitors showed that the proceedings were appre- ciated. Mr David James acted as chair- man. Recitation, "Yr Odfa Olaf," was given by Miss Woods, Penygroes; Miss M. Daniel, Ilford, sang one of Sankey's tunes; Miss Bessie Jones, "I will extol Thee"; and Miss E. Williams, Dolgelley, "The Heavenly Song." The three solos were of a high character and well 6ung. Addresses -in Welsh were delivered by the Rev J. Evans, Carno, and Mr Price, Tre- garon, and in English by Mr W. F. Phil- lips, Jesus College, Oxf-ord. Mrs A. Hil- ditch, Liverpool, and Miss J. Rowlands, organist1. St. Peter's Church, accompanied the singing. Grand Concert.—On Thursday evening of last week, a grand concert was held at the Council School. Mr J. R. Atkin, K.C., presided. The following pro- gramme was gone through :—Song, "Terence's Farewell," Mr R. Ffestin Williams J violin solo, Miss Morfudd Hughes, Southport; selections, Welsh Airs," United Choir, under the leadership of Mr Ffestin Williams; song, "Roses in June," Miss Margaret Daniel, Ilford; song, "Bedouin Love Song," Mr J. Owen Jones, B.Sc., Daventry; selections. Mr Matthew McDuff, who made his first ap- pearance at Aberdovey and impersonated Mr Harry Lauder; violin-solo, Miss H. Jackson; selections, "Irish Airs," Choir; song} "Nant Y Mynydd," Miss Maggie Williams, Bodfor-terrace. At this junc- ture Mr Atkin delivered an address, and in his remarks said that the common in- terest of music in Wales united all sections and denominations. If the Chancellor of the Exchequer had introduced his Budget in music, he felt that it would all go in harmony. The Chairman afterward per- formed the interesting function of pre- senting the Royal Humane certificate for life saving to Master Hugh Dyfi Morgan, son of Captain Rhys Morgan; and Master Iorwerth Rowlands, son of Mrs Humphrey Rowlands, Church-street. They both jumped into the water from the pier in their clothes and saved the lite or the youngest daughter of Mr J. P. Lewis, contractor, early in July. They were complimented, and the Chairman said that their act reflected great credit on Aberdovey. Proceeding with the pro- gramme, the following items were given: Song by Mr Williams, Liverpool; selec- tions, "Scotch Airs," the Choir; Harry Lauder's songs, Mr Matthew MCDAIFF; violin solo, Miss Morfudd Hughes; Welsh penillion singing, Messrs Hugh Lewis and J. O. Jones, B.Sc.; song, Miss Jane L. DaviE." Aberdovey (endored); selections, "Breton Airs," the Choir; song, "Hunt- ing the Hare," Mr J .0. Jones (encored); selections, "Welsh Airs"; finale, "God Save the King." The accompanists wer6 Miss Margaret Richards, R.A.M.; Miss Jones, Bryngwyn, Llanegryn; and Mr J. Idris Davies. Mr E. L. Rowlands pro- posed a vote of thanks to the Chairman and was seconded hI Mr R. Ffestin Wil- liams. Mr Atkin thanked the Choir for the fine music they had prepared and given to them. The proceeds of the con- cert partly go towards the united Sund Schools. Summer Tourney.—The annual meet- ing of the Aberdovey Golf Club opened on Monday morning. A large number off players had visited the links this season, and all speak highly of the excel- lent, condition of the greens and course. The new course from the 11th to the 14tli is played over for the first time in a com- patition week. The new device of the secretary, Colonel O. E. Ruck, R.E., of the electic bell and signal at the Cader hole is greatly appreciated and will clear the crowding of players which continually starts at Cader. A good class of players have entered this year, including Mr J. R. Atkin, K.C. J. E. Hill (scr.) F. W Brown (scr.); C. R„ MINCHFTN 61); M. Hepworth (x2); Maurice Hemmant, Cam- bridge Blue (scr.); T. Gilroy (xl) Basil Foster, the Worcester cricketer; EL Nut- tall, M.P.; J. O. Morland. The new club house consisting of all modern and up to date convenience, is a great boon to the success of the meeting. The Sec- retary's duties are ably carried out and the success of £ HE meeting is due to Col- onel Ruck, who is assisted by Mr D. Jamcs. The first event on Monday morn- ing was the Cambrian Railways cup which had been annually played for since 1895, when the Club was first instituted. The 1908 winner was Mr L. A. P'avitt, of Great Malvern Club. He did not turn up to defend it this year. About seventy cards were taken out, and excellent re- sults were made. The strong breeze stiffened the new course holes. Mr Dud- ley Howard, son of Mr Newman Howard, Preswylfa, and a Chaterhouse pupil, tied with Mr H. N. Nuttall, of Oxford Uni- versity, and son of Mr H. Nuttall, M.P., with a 75 nett. The Best gross score was that of, Mr F. W. Brown (scr.), Royal Wimbledon Club, who returned a 77. Results:— G. H. N. E. D. Howard 79 4 75 H. N. NUTTALL 89 14 75 F. W. Brown 77 Mr 77 J. T.

Gillart and Sons, auctioneers,, conducted an important sale of property at the Aber- dovey Town Hall on Friday afternoon when there was a large attendance. The pro- perty consisted of a choice freehold estate intersected by and having extensive frontages to the Aberdovey and Towyn main road. The estate has a total acreage of over fourteen acres, comprising twenty nice-sized building plots on A rising ground of commanding elevation. The sites are convenient of approach, with frontages of seventy feet and upward, suited for detached and semi-detached, or terrace houses. The estate constituted practically the only tract of building land available within the town's borders, good sites for building being excessively rare in Aber- dovey. Possession of all the lots sola was given on completion of purchase. With reference to the proposed new road marked on the plan, the Auctioneer said he wished to correct a wrong impression which he was told existed regarding it. All that the vendors did was to reserve land for the proposed new road with the simple object of providing means of access to the upper Uuilding plotsi only, namely lots 14 to 21 inclusive. All the other plots could be reached by means of the existing roads. The vendors did not compel the purchasers to make the road and simply gave them a right of way. If the pur- chasers wished to lay out a new road they could do so, or widen the existing road. Mr. Edmund Gillart, solicitor, who re- presented Mr. H..E. Herman, London, solicitor for the vendors, explained the conditions and answered questions. In his introductory remarks,, the Auctioneers said-I am pleased to see so numerous a gathering before me to mark an event of so much importance to the town and district of Aberdovey. The sale of this estate opens out before us a pleas- ing prospect of the future growtli of the town along the natural lines of its develop- ment. Those who are acquainted with the neighbourhood fairly well know how keenly the bringing of this property into the market has been looked forward to. In order to gratify the demand for building sites and give all the facilities possible, the vendors decided to divide the estate into plots of various sizes for building pur- poses. Had they so desired, I have no doubt they could have offered the property in one lot with good prospects of success. If that were done, however, your chance of buying A building plot here would probably be lost. The vendors, have, therefore, preferred to sell in small lots and I feel sure you appreciate the opportunity thus given you to buy this land for building pur. poses in suitably-sized plats. Each site is capable of carrying at least two houses, and some of the larger pieces will afford room for several houses in terraces or otherwise. Practically every convenience that can be desired in a seaside building estate is here met with. First of all, there is its very advantageous situation in the immediate vicinity of the Railway Station, the beach, and golf links a position which also commands a delightfully extensive view of the estuary ana bay. As regards water supply and sanitation, these sites are favourably placed. There are two useful roads in existence to serve most of the sites and land has been reserved to allow these roads being widened. I think you willlagree with me that the buildings con- ditions are reasonable. I really cannot see anything at all stringent in them, or anything to press too hardly on a pur- chaser. On the contrary, I believe they are more than usually favourable to the purchasers, and I can assure you that they have been framed with the idea of ALLOWING purchasers the fullest possible latitude compatible with the reasonable protection of the vendor's interests. You know the demand there is in Aberdovey for buildiiiR sites and how scarce are good sites situate close to the town. The fact that building land is so much sought for speaks well for the future. At A time when many seaside places are either at a standstill or actually, losing ground it is a welcome and reassuring sign. It wants no prophet to see that Aberdovey is likely to do well im the near future. The place is continually gaining in popu- larity and this sale offers splendid oppor- tunities for the profitable employment of capital, with bright prospects for an in- crease in value in time to come. We are bent on doing business and we are prepared to do business on reasonable terms. The building sites were then put up separately and were disposed of as follows —Lot 1 (2,554 square yards), Mr. David Hughes, Aberdovey, £ 120; lot 2 (1,947 yards). Mr. W. DanieT, Ilford, Essex, £ 120; lot 3 (1,938 square yards), Mrs. Wright Railway-terrace, £ 130; lot 4 (1,901 square yards), Captain John Evans, L132 10s.: lot 5 (1,537 square yards), Mr. D. Hughes, (-120; lot 6 (1,505 squarb yards), ¡ Mr. D. Hughes £ 125 R lot 7 (1,618 square yards), Captain D. Morgan, Aelydon, 2110; lot 8 (3,129 square yards), withdrawn at £ 95; lot 11 (3,202 square yards), Mr. D. Hughes, £ 170; lot 12 (4,561 square yards), Mr T. H. Awdry, Haulfryn, £ 160; lot 13 (2,495 square yards), Mr. J. P. Lewis, builder, L100. The remaining eight build- ings plots were withdrawn. The most interesting feature was the sale of Aberdovey Hall, formerly known as the Corbet Arms Hotel, and the land sur- rounding it comprising 9 and 10. The rounding it comprising lots 9 and 10. The Hall, which has been empty for about thirty years and was last occupied by the Jesuits, has stabling, premises, lawn, and kitchen garden, STANDING sl"-ghltly bafck- from the main road in a, convenient posi- tion, and consists of a massive structure with stuccoed walls and bays protruding at either end, connected by a tiled verandah and balcony. With its large accommoda- tion and advantageous surroundings, the Hall is well adapted for a hydropathic establishment, convalescent home, high- class boarding house, or an educational in- stitution. A plot of building land adjoin. ing, with a frontage of 125 feet and an area of 7,319 square yards, was offered with the Hall; but both lots were withdrawn at £ 1,300. The lots were then offered sep- arately. Bidding for the Hall commenced at JB1,000 and rose to LI,350 when the pro- perty was knocked down to Mr. E. L. Rowlands, Liverpool House amid cheers. It is understood that. Mr. Rowlands acted on behalf of a local syndicate in the public interest of Aberdovey. For the adjoin- ing site there was keen bidding. Starting at L100, the site was sold for £ 410 to Mr. Abraham Williams, contractor. The modern villa residence, called Bryn- dedwydd. at the junction of Station-road and Neptune-road, Towyn was the twenty, seoond lot offered for sale. Standing in its own grounds, covering a total area of tbout 1,887 square yards, the house enjoys fine open. views. Bidding commenced at P,550 and reached £ 735 when the property was knocked down to Mr. Gwilvm Evans, Towyn. The purchase money realised at the sale amounted to E3,782 10s.
TOWYN
TOWYN Dramatic Performances.—On Thursday and Friday evenings of last week visitors to Towyn and the inhabitants were treated to delightful entertainments at Ynys-y-maengwyn, the beautiful residence of Mrs Corbett. The entertainments formed part of a series of plays given by mem- bers and friends of the family in aid of the Towyn and Aberdovey District Nursing Association and show the great kindness and thoughtfulness of Mrs Corbett. That being the case, it only remains fior the public to do their share by helping to make the entertainments successful, and express their appreciation of the good work done. It was pleasing to note that the spacious ball-room, in which the en- tertainments were given, was comfortably filled on both occasions, the reserved seats being especially well patronized. This room, beautifully furnished and decorated with magnificent paintings and suits of armour, is well adapted for dramatic per- formances. There is a good-sized stage which, however, could be improved if raised a little, as it is not easy to see what happens on the stage f'rom the back of the hall. In addition to the three plays, the Towyn Male Voice Choir, under the con- ductorship of Mr D. O. Jones, Tyddyndu, added to the great success of the enter- tainments by singing in splendid style. On Thursday evening, the programme was opened by the Choir singing a Welsh piece and "La Marsellaise." Afterward the curtain was raised and a drama in one act entitled "The Sergeant of Hussars" bv Miss Cicely Hamilton, was given. The characters were, Voisin (an old French peasant), Mr Sydney Oldham; Jeanne (his grand-daughter), Mrs Edmund Cor- bett; and Joseph Arnault (engaged to Jeanne), Mr Edmund Corbett. This play depicted an incident during the Franco-Prussian War the chief interest being centred around the love scene of Arnault and Jeanne. The latter, during the absence of her lover at the war, falls Eassionately in love with a sergeant of [ussars oh the Prussian Army and the full dramatic power of the part was shown when she found that her lover is mar- ried and has deceived her. The passion- ate love of Arnault for Jeanne, and of Jeanne for the Sergeant was acted in a masterly and clever way by Mr and Mrs Edmund Corbett both showing consider- able histrionic ability and preparation. The acting of Mr Sydney Oldham as the old man was also touching and realistic. An interval followed, in which the ser- vices of the Male Voice Choir were fully appreciated. The singing of the stirring piece, "Crossing the Plain," evoked rounds of applause and had to be re- peated later in the evening. When the curtain was again raised for a play IN one act, "Pride of Regiment," by F. V: Bone, the interior of a gamekeeper's cot- tage was revealed, the gamekeeper being represented by Mr Oldham, and his wife by Miss Mary Corbett. The part of the son, undergoing his training in the army, was enacted by Mr Edmund Corbett. Tb chief interest of the play was demon- strated in the rage of. the old gam- keeper (a pensioner) owing to" his son's disgrace in having been discharged the army for striking a sergeant while drunk. It was in the subsequent scene, however, when Miss Corgett showed ho a mother's love for her son triumphed over discipline and so-called honour and when she threatened that if her son was turned out she would go with him, her repre- sentations eventually prevailing and the gamekeeper learnt to forget and forgive, that the full force of the play was e- vealed. The whole scene was extremely powerful and the acting of the three characters was exceptionally clever AND thrilling. The audience was simply fascinated, and the touching scene t)cl tween mother and son brought tears to more than one eye. Undoubtedly, of he three plays, this was the most appealing and effective. The final piece was farce in one act, "It all depends ON Mary," by Ellis Kingsley, the being Mr Ferdin and Leicester, Mr OLDJ ham; Mary, Mrs E. Cbrbett; AD» Josephine Leicester, Mrs Sydney OLD' ham. This, of course, was of a LIGHTER nature than the other two pieces, but none tbel less appreciated and ENJOYED* the acting again being splendid. GREA* praise is due to Mrs Corbett for pro" iding the delightful treats, to the a4ctO for so ably performing their various dutI and to the Choir for adding so much the enjoyment. It is hoped that a SU«^ stantial sum will be realized to suppp1. so worthy an institution as the NursnJL»I Association.

LL VHfiSOUGH LIFE it is found to be necessary by most men and women to take medicine from time to time. We are but human, the beat and wisest of us, and being so, we are far from perfect in wisdom. We are subject to frequent lapses from the strictly correct laws of hygiene. We are often neglectful of our health, for example, partaking of food that is not suited to nig, patting too severe a strain upon our mental and bodily organs, robbing ourselves of our proper amount of sleep. The result is that Nature rebels, and we suffer from in- digestion, liverishness, headache, poor appetite, heavy, tired feeling, and other indications of irregular action of the stomach and digestive organs. BEECHAM'S PILLS are the handy home remedy they afford immediate relief, and are a perfectly reliable medicine. They exert a very necessary and tonic action on the entire system. When- ever the stomacn, liver, and bowels are out of order, Beecham's Pills will be found beyond compare the best means of restoring them to healthy action. At all times when there is a sensation of lassitude and depression, or when pain is experienced after food, they should at once be taken, for they I Will Surely Assist r on.
