Com" As for Fighters. THE BOYS' PRAISES OF Y.M.C.A. WORK. R.S.M. Fear has received twenty-one letters from Aber. men serving abroad, of which the following are a few extracts Seaman J. Warrington, R.N., writes—I was glad to see in the "Cambrian News' that you are getting a Y.M.C.A. for Aber. which is greatly wanted and I hope the movement will iprove a success. I am sure the people of Aber. will support you as they have done in sending comforts to the boys. We are still waiting for a battle. The Germans only send a few destroyers out now and again; but, never mind, we will catch them on the hop one day. Seaman B. White, R.N., writes I must say the cake you sent was glorious and the choco- late rich." The cocoa tablets f have not tried yet. May God bless you all for the kindness you are showing towards us in this terrible war. You do not know the feeling that comes over us when we receive a parcel from you. I cannot express it in words, but you can partly guess. Lance-Corpl. E. D. Rowlands, France, writes —You can see by the papers that the boys are )u c doing great work these days. A few more weeks like this will bring the glorious victory as the morale of poor old Fritz is absolutely broken. The big guns are hammering away and in the trees close by is the cuckoo calling her song of peace. I am sorry to see in the papers that so many of Aber. boys have made the great sacrifice. Please convey my deepest sympathy to their parents. I am pleased to hear that you are making a move at Aber. towards getting a Y.M.C.A., which is greatly needed and, what is more, it will stand as a memorial for the gallant lads that have fallen. I trust to see the good institution flourishing if I am spared to return. I must say the Y.M.C.A. has done great work here. God be with you till we meet again. Pet. J. Roderick Davies, France, writes-It is comforting to know that our friends at home are not unmindful of the boys in this terrible struggle. We all trust that the end ;s not far off. I am so pleased to think vou are having a Y.M.C.A. at Aber. and may the effort be crowned with success. I hardly know what we fthe boys of all nations) would have done but for the good work of the ladies of the various Y.M.C.A.'s at the front. We are always wel- comed and are able to spend what few moments W8 have to spare in comfort, and often meet a friend from home. I hardly think there is a Tommy who does not feel a warm regard for the Y.M.C.A. and its warm association. I am sorry to say that I have been in hospital on three occasions since I wrote to you. I was afraid that I had lost the use of my right arm; and, though I am not at all myself even now, I am glad I am able to write. The other week I had to ask a com- rade to write for me. I also lost my speech which was a terrible blow to me, but God has been good and I have gradually regained my speech, and am getting better. I am once more on duty. With kind regards to all Aber. friends and the best of luck to the Aber. Y.M.C.A. Pte. T. G. Humphreys writes I cannot express my gratitude to you all in appreciation of these gifts, not only because they are use- ful, but because I realise the amount of labour, timo. ,:nd money necessary in order to enable suc'; ri'00d results to be achieved. Please convey my most grateful thanks to all the subscribers of your fund. I thank you for card enclosed with kind wishes. Pte. C. Ansley, France, writes--V-,e have been rather busy lately letting Fritz know we are alive and well. The weather has been all we have wished for lately. There is an Aber. boy—Glyn Thomas, Mr. John Thomas, the draper's son-in the same platoon as myself so we get a good talk of home and wonder i: we will have the luck to come back again, but all we can do is to put our trust in Him. May you have the support to keep on the good work you are doing a little longer, for I feel confi- dent the war will not last much longer. Gunner W. J. Edwards, France, writes—We are having a pretty hard time at present aT we are giving old Fritz a rough time too. We are all quite satisfied. I have not come across any Aber. boys, but am always on the look out. We are having grand weather. I was sorry to hear of the death of Seaman T. O. Jones who was a schoolmate of mine. Lance-Corpl. W. James, France, writes—Tt is nice to think that Aber. friends are still think- ing of us lads so far away from home. The only thing we can do now is to do our best to win this wicked war. We are noiv having lovely weather. 0 Corpl. Archie Potts, Francs, writes—We are having grand weather now and bathing is our favourite pastime. Our bathing place at pre- sent is a lake in the grounds of what was at one time a fine mansion which has been battered by German shell fire. Many thanks to the mem- bers of the Rheidol Choir for getting up such

I Aberystwyth Rural CouncilI
Aberystwyth Rural Council Aberystwyth Rural Council met on Monday Mr. David Lewis presiding. The Clerk produced Government regulations governing the prices of foodstuffs, etc., includ- ing milk. The Clerk read a letter from the British Farmer:> Red Cross Society inviting the Council to take steps to assist, in holding a jumble sale j on a large scale for the funds.—Mr. J. Bunce Morgan, in proposing co-operation, said it was their duty to assist. The district had done well in the past, but the needs were gieat, and the Union should produce the r aterials for a really good sale.—Mr. David James, in seconding the proposition, thought each u ember should canvass his own district.On the pro- position of Mr. E. J. Evans, it was decided to invite each parish council to assist. That could be supplemented by the formation of a central committee to act on behalf of the Council.—The suggestion was adopted unanimously, the fol- lowing being appointed on the Central Com- mittee:—The Chairman, Messrs. II. Lewis, Ponterwyd: D. James, Penllwvn; J. Bunce Morgan, D. Edwards, Dolfor; w. T. Lewis, Borth; and D. James, Penrhyncoch. On the proposition of Mr. E. J. Lvfns, it was decided to support a memorial in favour of freeing the rivers for fishing.—Mr. Evans said although the question did not affect the locality to any great extent, the Council should take the larger view and support all movements afterwards of Porth ,So uth Wales, passed away Daniel Jenkins doubted the utility cf the pro- posaL Every man who wanted v ork N PS fully employed, and to his mind the ri'oposal was likely to benefit poachers and idlers only. The Clerk announced that Mr. David Davies, surveyor, had met with an accident and was not able to attend. Cwmrheidol Parish Council asked the Council to take over the road from Ponterwyd to Rhiw- goch, about half a mile in leii-iii, the Parish Council being prepared to put the road in order. —Mr. Llewelyn Lewis said the difficulty was that the road had no outlet- into another public road, but there were three farmhouses on it. The Council's workman walked the road daily to and from his work, and its adoption would cost practically nothing.—After discussion the Clerk" was directed to inform the Parish Coun- cil that the Rural Council was prepared to wo" allow their workman to put in two davs occa- sionally on the road, but without prejudice as to responsibility for maintenance. The Cot;nr-il decided to refer the question of repairing certain footbridges at Talybont to the Parish Council. Mr. Griffiths, Henllvs, was elected to succeed Mr. David Benjamin, Ynysfergi Farm, and Mr W. D. Lewis, Cwrtvcadno, to succeed Mr. John Morgan Jones, Rhydyfarian, for Llanilar district. The Inspector said a case of measles was notified at Corel Dewi. having been imported from South Wales. Every precaution was taken. A case of diphtheria was fatal at Tal- iesin. Tt was contracted from another fatal case reported at the previous meeting. The house was fumigated and disinfected. A case at Tre'rddol also occurred, contracted from the previous cases at Taliesin. Every effort was made to prevent its i-preadine. Two cases of diphtheria were also reported from Pencae, Taliesin, and two cases at Talybont. The Rev. Evan Jones, a trustee of the house property reported on previously, wrote promising to carry out the Council's instructions as soon as possible and n skino- the Council not to press n Or A'trlD-YO _rr"la riAiinnil rlno-i .1 l-r..

I New Quay Hero. I Private J. PENRY DAVIES, W.R., Second son of the late Captain Davies, and of Mrs. Davies, Emrys House, Church-street, killed in action on the 21st April. Pte. Penry Davies, who was barely twenty at the time of his death, enlisted at the outbreak of the war and, in company with his brother (Private Alwyn Davies) served in the Gallipoli campaign. Both were invalided home, deceased suffering from enteric, and his brother severely wounded in the foot necessitating the amputation of some of the toes. Pte. Penry Davies was drafted to the Western Front late in 1916 and met his death when acting as company runner. Great sympathy is felt with Mrs. Davies in her loss of a son who was of a loveable disposition and appeared to have a career full of promise.
-----_.------_---------Aberystwyth…
Aberystwyth Allotments. (By W.R.H.) As long as the dry weather lasted the allot- ment holders on Cae Bach and Buarth pitched their song in the major key. Peas and broad beans had come up fairly well 111 some cases; a little irregularly in others; and there were visions of duck and green peas and broad beans ad lib for those who liked them. Broad beans make a nutritious meal; but singularly enough a large number of people locally like just a taste of them when they first come in season and then relegate that nutritious form of food to the background of food stuffs. Cabbage plants, not to be got in the district for love or money, because the frost had killed them all off, were obtained all the way from Brecon and dotted about the plots, and cauliflower and lettuce and other luxuries were transplanted and were regarded with a certain amount of pride and hopeful anticipation. Then the rain came; and, blessing as it was for the whole countryside, turned the song of the allotment holders into the minor key, and if they held a concert on Cae Bach the first item on the pro- gramme would be the song "Listen to My Tale of Woe." The peas which germinated got smaller in number by degrees and beautifully less through the depredations of the birds. Not a shred of the lettuce plants was left after a raid by slugs to mark the place where promising lettuce plants had rejoiced the eyes and whetted the anticipations of the holders. Cabbage and cauliflower plants were nipped off by slugs as if by a pair of scissors. But what struck consternation into the hearts of the allottees was an insidious attack on the rows of broad beans which were on the point of coming into flower. First onerbean and then another with- ered away without any apparent cause, and one after another was bowled over like a row of ninepins. At last a holder got at the root of things by digging up a bean and found that a dirty green-brown grub had burrowed into the very heart of the stalk, just above the root. All sorts of remedies were tried in vain. Soot seeded to the pest down to the ground and time was as congenial to it as a briar bush was to Brer Rabbit of the negro story book. A couple of the culprits when caught in I flagrante delicto were hauled up before Mr. Hal ton of the College Agricultural Depart- ment, who is learned in all pests to which the farmer is ueir to, who pronounced the broad bean pest to be the leather iacket which re- joices in the swell Latin name of tipuila oleracea and has a cousin named faludosa, only distin- guishable by their caudal appendages. Each is as insidious a beast as a German submarine and as thick-skinned as an Irish member of Parliament. It is, in fact, our old friend Daddy Longlegs in an embryonic state, of which in our youthful clays we used to say— Old Daddy Longlegs would not say his prayers Take him by the hind legs and throw him downstairs. Though reluctant to pray, the pest is an yaept in preying on vegetables. When frost comes he burrows deep down into the earth and when fine weather comes he rises to within a short distance of the surface, where he lies in wait, like a certain personnge, for all that he may devour. Burning the grass sods will therefore not extinguish the pest. No chemical will destroy it when it gets into the roots of plants which will not also destroy the plants as well. The only effective way of destroying the pest is to give the ground a stiff dressing of gas lime when it is unoccupied by plants in the autumn and winter. On Saturday evening one holder caught over 100 of the grub. The moral of the whole story is that it was a mistake to have planted anything but potatoes this year in the newly-upturned grass plots. The potato haulms are looking strong and promising and it is for- tunate that the greater portion of the plots has been laid down in potatoes. Dwarf and kidney beans are also showing a vigorous growth, and so far those allottees who planted early have had no cause to find that their enterprise has been nipped by frost. With regard to kidney beans and garden lore, a writer in the "Western Mail's" Day by Day column gives the following quaint directions as to the time of planting:—* When elum-leaves are as big as a farden, You may plant kidney beans in the garden; When elum-leaves are as big as a shilling. It's time to plant kidney beans, if you're will- ing When elum-leaves are as bier as a penny, You must plant kidney beans—if you mean to have any! Notwithstanding the pests, the allotment holders are not downhearted and some of them are lighthearterl enough to make fun at each other's mishaps and sometimes play practical jokes on their fellows. One holder, whom we will call A, told his friend B that he had a beautiful cauliflower on his plot which he in- tended having with his Sunday's dinner. B replied that he also had a cauliflower which would beat A's production hands down, and it was arranged that the two cauliflowers should be submitted in competition on Saturday even- ing. On Saturday afternoon B went to A's plot and cut his cauliflower and took it to A's house in the evening. A Acknowledged that B's cauliflower was the better, but said he could not produce his cauliflower because some- one had stolen it that afternoon. B expressed sorrow at A's loss and, saying that as he bad ,i i set his mind on having:, cauliflower with his Sunday dinner he had better take the one pro- duced, handed back to A his own property. On Tuesday a large mole (gwadd) was caught on Cae Bach winch had long lrnn ersrnged in tunnelling operations under some of thp -plots.

I WASTE OF KG HEY.

The Gov- ernment proposed to pay barristers so appointed a salary of £ 250 a year and 15s a day subsist- ence allowance, give them a commission, and provide uniform and outfit. This is thought to be unnecessary as for the past fifteen months this work has been done by professional men over military age who have, acted without pay- ment and who have gained a complete know- ledge of the routine.

Of course, I shared them around, as we were short at the time, but by now canteens are going strong as well as the French shops. I have not come across any Aber. lads this trip, but better luck next time. I was sorry to read of the death of Mrs. C. M. Williams. We are going J it strong here and in high hopes of seeing this affair all through this year. j Pte. A. Chamberlain, France, writes—All the boys are looking forward to a cig. from Blighty.

Fear has been greatly encouraged by receiving the information from the fronts which he has asked for, viz., of any man who has not received a parcel for two months. He feels sure, however, that there are still several who 1 are not getting their parcels regularly, and this he much regrets. He makes a special appeal to the men themselves to send him this informa- tion and a parcel will be sent at once, as the friends at home not in some cases give him this information. He would like to hear of any Aber boy n,- plreadv on his list, as he is most anxious that none should be overlooked.
