Calvinistic Methodists. NORTH WALES ASSOCIATION MEETS AT TOWYN. The North Wales Association or "Sassiwn" of the Calvinistic Methodists was held at Towyn last week after a lapse of thirty-three years. There are many who have vivid recol- lections of the 1855 Association, and the pre- sent one will long remain in the memory of all as coming at the close of the greatest war in history. Two chaplains were present, namely) Prof. David Williams, M.A., Aberyst- wyth; and the Rev. J. J. Evans, Dwyran, Anglesey. The Rev. Dr. John Williams, Bryn- sciencyn, was the only member of this year's Association who was present at the previous one held in Towyn, and Dr. Williams made his first appearance then as an Association preacher. The Rev. T. Charles Williams (Menai Bridge), Moderator, presided at the meetings on Tues- day. For the Moderatorship for the ensuing- year Mr. John Owen (Chester), the Rev. T. Charles Williams and the Rev. R. E. Morris (Wrexham) obtained the highest number of votes. Mr. Owen desired to withdraw, but eventually consented to be one of the nominees, and upon another division he was elected. The Moderator warmly congratulated his successor, and also thanked the Associat'on for nominat- ing him (Mr. Williams), as this, he thought, was the first occasion on which a retiring Moderator had been proposed for another year. GREETINGS The Association offered its grc tings to their Majesties the King and Queen CJI the cessation of hostilities. The Association acknowledged the goodness of Almighty God in the terrible ordeal through which the world had passed, recognised the vindication of His righteous judgment, and prayed that His Holy Spirit might guide the nations of the world in the way of peace. The Association also expressed to the Prime Minister, the Right Hon. D. Lloyd George, their admiration of the courage and wise coun- :;d with which he has guided the affairs of the nation during a period of unexampled strain and danger in its history, and prayed that in the important position which may devolve upon him and his colleagues in the settlement of the terms of peace, and in the great work of future reconstruction, he and those who may be associated with him in the Government of the Empire, may be guided by Almighty God in all their deliberations. AN ANGLESEY LEGACY Among a number of legacies left to the Con- nexion was one by the late Mr. Robert Pierce, Treferwydd, Anglesey, who gave jESOO to be divided between the Foreign and Home Mis- sions, and R-1,500 to be shared (after the death of his niece) in the proportion of a third to each of the following, viz., Auxiliary Tund for the North Wales Association, the North Wales Ministers' Fund, and Bala College, for the pro- vision of a scholarship to candidates for the ministry. Pte. J. R. Roberts, who was formerly in service at Meirion House, Llangollen, left his library of 300 volumes and a sum of P,10 to the church at Garnfadryn, Carnarvonshire. It was also stated that the late Mrs. Mary Jones, a member of the Maengwyn Church, Machyn- Heth, had left S700 to be divided among vari- ous Connexional agencies. THEOLOGICAL STUDENTS IN THE ARMY. A report was presented by a Committee con- I nected with Bala. College dealing with the provision which should be made for the edu- cation of theological students who are in the army or engaged on national service Recom- mendations were made covering' the "cases of students who left the College, candidates for admission to the College, and men who require training for the ministry upon resuming civil life. In view of the dearth of candidates for the ministry it was recommended that an effort be made, in conjunction with other deno- minations, to secure the simultaneous release from the army of all such candidates. Consideration had aLo been given to the de- sirability of appealing for the release of stu dents who are conscientious objectors. In t event of the Association determining to take some steps in this direction the Committee re- commended the appointment of a deputation ro tne vvar Uttice and that the assistance of home influential member of Parliament be 'I sought. The Rev. Dr. John Williams thought that "OJ11e distinction should be made between those who had been in the firing line and those v had gone into munition works, where they had earned good money. Mr. John Owen said in the opinion of the Government a man who worked on the land was doing equally important work as the man who fought. The report was adopted. THE PREMIER AND TEMPERANCE. The Rev. J. Glvn Davies submitted a report by the Temperancl.: Committee, which embodied a series of resolutions rejoicing that the North Wales and South Wales Temperance Associa- tions and the Free Church Federation had at last agreed upon a united policy for Wales, in- eluding local option, the continuance of the present restrictions, and the calling upon the Government to close all public houses tor some days after the proclamation of peace. The Rev. Mr. Morgan (Hoylake) said he had been struck by the absence of any reference to the temperance question in the Premier's letter I to Mr. Bonar Lav/. He thought that the voice of the Association should go forth clearly cn the policy which should be pursued. policy which should be pursued. The Rev. Dr. John Williams—The Premier has more, than once definitely referred to tem- perance measures. ("No, no.") I c:n pro- duce them if you like. There is no No about it. The Committee's report was adopted. LEAGUE OF NATIONS. At the evening session Major David Davies, M.P., advocated the claiins of the League of Nations Union. He declared t.hat in future we must regard war as the greatest crime anyone could commit against mankind. He realised that it would take time to make tne change an accomplished fact. Foreign policy mi;st be disentangled from questions of domestic poli- tics, and this could be accomplished only by some scheme of devolution The league must be a league of free nations. The admission of autocracies would ruin it. Now that the Kaiser and his crowd had disappeared for c-.cr There was no reason why the enemy people, if they were sincere and gave guarantees, should not come within the circle. There were forces working against the movement. There were vested interests that would oppose it, and th, movement would be thwarted unless the people backed it thoroughly. On the motion of the Rev. J. E. Hughes (Car- narvon), the meeting pledged itself to support the movement. Prof. David Williams (Aberystwyth), and the Rev. T. J. Evans (Dwyran) related their experi- ences with the Welsh troops in Palestine and France respectively. Prof. Williams made special mention of two Towyn boys in Palestine, namely, Sergeant Harry Roberts, D.C.M., Gwalia-road, whom Prof. Williams described as "the hero of th Prof. Williams described as "the hero of th battalion, and Signaller Owen Jones, Gwalia- road, who, before the war, was a candidate for the ministry. WEDNESDAY S PROCEEDINGS. TRAINING MEN FOR THE MINISTRY. Mr. William Lewis, chief inspector of tne Ministry of Pensions in North Wales, attended the meeting of the Association on Wednesday to appeal for the active interest of the churches in the affairs of men and their dependents who were entitled to pensions. With reference to the' training of disabled soldiers for the mmisti-y of the church, he read a letter from the Director of Training in which he said that that form of-training had his entire sympathy. He regarded it as a most excellent thing that men with the experience of these men should desire to enter that profession, and he gave his assurance that in all cases put forward everything would be done to ensure for the men the necessary training. (Cheers). THE CHURCH ACT. The Rev Dr John Williams brought forward the question of the re-opening of the Welsh Church Act. While he had no objection to consider any grievances which his Church friends thought they had as the result of the war, he had a. most determined objection to the authorities in London re-opening the finan- cial clauses without consults ton with the Free Church leaders in Wales. (Cheers). He thought the Association ought to make some pronouncement en the matter. Major David Davie3, M.P., said that the Church Act was to be remodelled in certain

Albert Jones, seconded by Mr. Hughes Davies, a resolution was unanimously adopted expressing confidence in Mr. Lloyd George and congratulating him on the prominent part he had taken in securing victory for the Allied nations, and pledging un- qualified support to him in the carrying out of the great task of the settlement of peace, nd suggesting that the final terms of peace should be as generous as the terms of the armistice. An interesting discussion took place on the policy of Coalition candidates; and, on the proposition of Mr. D. Caradog Evans, sec- onded by the Rev. Conway Pritchard, it was decided to convey the following resolution to Mr Lloyd George:—"That Pwllheli Liberal Association expresses the hope that no Liberal principles or measures would be sacrificed dur- ing the period of reconstruction." Several mem- bers spoke strongly in favour of abolishing the Defence of the Realm Act and the Military Service Act as soon as possible. On the pro- position of Mr. David Jones, seconded by Mr. Edmund Lewis, it was decided to invite Mr. Lloyd George to address a meeting in the borough as soon as possible.

(Continued from prevous colhumn respects, and he agreed with Dr. Williams that no such step should be taken before the Free Churches in Wales had been consulted. They would not desire to see the Church worse off by reason of the war, but surely it was only fair that what the Church gained should be set against her losses. Should it be then found that she was still a loser, no doubt the country would be prepared to meet her. On the motion of Dr. Williams, the following resolution was passed That this Association observes with satisfaction the statement of the Prime Minister that inasmuch as the Welsh Church Act is on the Statute Book there is no desire on the part of even the Church itself that the Act should be repealed. The Associa- tion, however, is concerned vith the reference made to the possible revision of the financial clauses of the Act, and that while it is pre- pared to give every consideration to the griev- ances alleged by the Church to exist, the Association firmly declares that no changes shall be made in the Act without previous consulta- tion with the Free Churches." i —"wya 11 i i niii

South Carnarvonshire Conservators. CHEAP FISHING DEFERRED. South Carnarvonshire Conservators met at Criccietfh on Thursday week; present Messrs. J. R. Owen, J.P., Llew Davies, E R. Elias, T. J. Houghton Davies, O. Ellis J ones, and David Jones, clerk. Sir H. J. Ellis Nanney wrote regretting his inability to attend, and Mr. J. R. Owen was voted to the chair; Mr. Jonathan Davies, Port- madoc, in apologising for absence, wrote sug- gesting that trout licence should remain as at present as the Association could not afford to improve the fishery without a moderate price for licences. The Clerk explained that he had forwarded the resolution proposed by Mr. Walter Jones in favour of reducing season trout licences from 7s. to 5s. to th& Board of Fisheries, as well as the reasons given by Mr. Jones which were to the effect that working men would rarely go out fishing oftener than once a week and could not afford to pay 7s. for the licence and the high prices for tackle; and that more licences would be sold at 5s. than at 7s. Fifty- two additional licences were taken out this year compared with the previous year; and according to communications from the Board of Fisheries he doubted whetiler that Board would approve of the resolution. I Mr. T. J. Houghton Dav.es suggested that a half-day licence should be issued to workers for 6d. They ought to do something to meet the working classes. The Chairman said a great change had taken place during the war and several working men now were receiving more wages than business men. Mr. Llew Davies said expenses were heavier now than in pre-war times and funds were wanted to re-stock the rivers. He had always advocated allowing licences at a reduced fee for working men; but in face of the present circumstances, having regard to the increase in administrative expenses and the .esire of the HoarGI to secure funds to enable it to re-stock the rivers and the fact that other boards are increasing their fees to meet in- creased expenditure due to war-time conditions he moved to defer the proposal to reduce the price of licences sine die. Mr. E. R. Ellis seconded the proposition, say- ing he was glad Mr. Davies at last had come to the same conclusion as he on that point. The proposition was agreed to and the Clerk was instructed to make enquiries as to the re- stocking of the rivers and also act on the sug- gestion of Mr. Houghton Davies to grant a half-day licence to workmen. The Clerk intimated that up to the end of September E140 had been received from licences, compared with £ 100 the previous year,, leaving a balance of £ 44 16s., compared with £6 the previpus year. The Chairman congratulated the Clerk on the satisfactory condition of the finances. Mr. James Jones, river watcher, presented his report and was congratulated by the Chair- man, Mr. Llew Davies, and Mr. Houghton Davies on the effective way he had done his work.

"1 cannot tell you how sorry I am to hear about poor Owie. It has come to me as a great shock, as it was only a few days ago that we i arted. During the six months that we were together, we were like brothers. This 1038 is a sad and bitter blow to me. We were together on his last night here, and as we parted he said that he felt that he would never see his home again. He went up the line with the fixed determination to do his duty to the last, realis- ing that his chances of coming out, were very poor. He had promised to stay the night with me on his way through on leave, and I liad been anxiously waiting for him every day. Please accept my most heartfelt sympathy with you (1,11 in your great loss. There is the con- sola tion that he died for his country fearlessly and without a flinch. He knew what he was in for, and went for it with that glorious brar very that only Britishers can show. I have been asked by my brother officers to convey to you their fullest sympathy with you and your family in. your great sorrow. Owie was like one of us and was always welcome. He was liked and very popular with everybody. We all admired and respected him, and ho showed us all what a true Welshman lie was by his ways and actions. He was pointed out by every- body here as a perfect example of a Welshman. He was proud of his country and a credit to it in every way. Tn his loss, Wales has lo t a man that she can ill afford to lose, and it is men like him that have given Wales the glori- ous name that she holds to-day."
