Cambrian Resorts Association.
Cambrian Resorts Association. THE POWER OF ADVERTISING. The Cambrian Resorts Association met at Barmouth on ThmVday when there were present Councillor J. Barciay Jenkins, Aber- ystwyth, presiding; Messrs. John Evans, Portmadoc; G. W. Roberts, Criccieth; Wil- liam To]eman and Fred E. Young, Pwllheli; Colonel Lloyd, Dyffryn; Cornelius Roberts; Pwllheli; Aldermen E. P. Wynne and Edwin Morris, Aberystwyth; Richard Barnett, Dot- gelley; David Jones, Towyn; R. O. Richards Towyn; R. Roderick, W. T. Lewis, Borth; John Higgon, Barmouth Junction; H. E. Roberts, Dyffryn; R. Jones Evans, Pwllheli- R. Williams, Criccieth; W, J. Williams and R. Hughes Jones, Festiniog; R. Price Lewis, Portmadoc; D. Roberts, Barmouth; Edward Williams, Barmouth; G. E. Owen, Barmouth; Richard Newell, Portrnadoo; W. Peacock, Fairbourne; D. E. James, Barmouth; and Ed. Mr. S. Williamson, general manager of the Jones, secretary. Mr. J. Burgess represented Cambrian Railways Company. The Rev. Gwynoro Davies reporter on behalf of the Board of Director thMt tile Association had never been in as nourishing a position as at p:x!sent. Tlie majority of coast resorts had joined the Association and it had been de- cided to issue 15,000 guides to the coast re- sorts at ft cost of £148. Hariech was the only resort which had not joined and therefore no pictures of Harienh district would appear in the guide. Mr. Williamson some years continued Mr. Davies, brought down a pa-ty of from twenty-five to thirty English journal- ists, representing sixty or seventv newspapers who made a tour of the Cambrian Coast from Aberystwyth to Pwllheli, and excellent, descriptive articles and paragraphs appeared in many of the daily newspapers. It was the cheapest and most effective advertisement the Association ever bad. It was suggested by the Board of Directors that press representa- tives should be invited to visit the district this winter. It was time the Association should comoete with Bournemouth and the Soiith Coast. Advertising the Const as a widfe" resort should be successful as the Board decided to snend from to £100 on advertising. That decision benefit the who'e of the district, including the small vil- lages which, though they paid less than the larger places, were entitled to it. The report having been adopted Mr. Davies, continuing, said the Association had done much towards uniting the whole of the towns. Since his coming to Barmouth thirty-two years ago the towns had undergone a "great change When he came into the district they were all at emnity with one another and any fault in one town was advertised bv the others. That had all been done away with and 1 if a. visitor did .not care for one town he was recommended to try another. The Cambria*, Railways Company promised to continue fnst trains through the winter and to have all the carriages steam-heated if there were enough passengers to justify it. The Rai'wnv Com- pany was doing its best and he (Mr. Difvies) thought the Association owed if a. debt of gratitude. On an average six trains were run in each direction every day, and, as the past season had been the best experienced it was hoped the winter season would be suc- ceo.stu). Mr. Richard Newell, Portmadoc, confirmed Mr. Davies's report and statement. Mr. Burgess said the Con-many honed to continue the winter service of trains; but continuance depended on how the trains vere patronised. Mr. Peacock asked why the train from Mach- vnlleth way in the afternoon did not stop at Fairbourne? meant great inconvenience to women who had to do all their shopping in Barmouth anri perhaps meant a loss for Bar- mouth tradesmen. Mr. W. T. Lewis. Borth, said the trail which used to stop at Borth at 10.20 a.m. and the train due at 5.15 p.m. in Aberystwyth did not now stop. Those Itrins should stoo at Borth as it was a summer and winter hca'th resort, and trains had stopped th<■>-<- for the past thirty years. Borth did not get quantity but quality. Mr. Burgess, in reply, pointed out that tr the express trains at the smaller station1- would materially add to the time occupied or the jowney and thus defeat the object for which the trains we"e put on. He, however. nromised to bring the ma,tter to the attention of Mr. Williamson. The Chairman welcome^ all new delegates ar-7 said he was glad to see many who were absent at the p"evious meeting. Sinroe then many resorts had joined the Arssriation. The delegates met that day after an exceptionally- successful seasoD. If the Association united efforts to secure a better winter season success be assured. The climate of Cardigin Bay was wild and invigorating and was quite as good as that of the South Coast. Many who visited the South Coast if they knew of the mild and healthful climate of the Welsh Coast woulj take their holidays there. Tho only way to inform them that the climate of West Wales wis suitable for invalids was to advertise extensively as at present. Intending visitors had no means of otherwise knowing. He •l-o'tght the complaint, about' srettincr to TU. -i' was weak as a passenger could get out at Machynlleth and get toe Borth half an hour later than the 5.15 train in Aberystwyth. Visitors complained of the long time thev had tp spend in tho train to get to the Welsh Coast. The time, however, compared favour- ably with the time occupied in gcinsr to Bournemouth. The journey from Birmingham to Bournemouth took four hours 26 mhu'tes, and from Birmingham to Aberystwyth four hours twenty minutes; to Aberdovey, four hours fivo minutes; and to Barmouth, four hours forty-one minutes. From Wolverhamp- ton to Bournemouth took four hours fifty- three minutes; from Wolverhampton to Aber- ystwyth, three hours fifty-three minutes, an hour less; to Aberdovey, three hours thirty-eight minutes; nnd Bar- mouth four hours and fourteen minutes. From Shrewsbury to Bournemouth took five hours forty-three minutes, from Shrewsbury to Aberystwyth two hours fifty-five minutes, to Aberdovey two hours forty minutes, and to Barmouth three hours sixteen minutes. He was strongly in favour of the suggested press campaign. The effect would be that the attractions of the Camb-ian Coast would be made better known. There was a future for a winter season at the resorts on the coast, if they were properly advertised and he tboug-ht the Association was going in the rieht direction. The Rev. Gwynoro Davies said owing to nress advertising thousands of !ppIirnticD5" for rooms had been received. Ba-mouth sent about 15,000 guides by post as a result of advertising, and 800 to publicity agents for distribution. Over 100 were sent to a bureau in Paris and in two or three weeks time afterwards many applications for rooms in Barmouth were received from that citv. Col. TJovd said meteorol<wical reports ("f ^ach resort would fee II, gcorl. advertisement for the information of invalids. Abervstwyf'' was the only town in which meteorological observations were taken. Mr. W. T. Lewis, Borth, thought an effec- tive advertisement would be views of the dis- trict on cinema screens in the Midlands. It was decided on the proposition of M'. W. T. Lewis to invite journalists from Liver- pool. Birmingham, Manchester, Stoke. Leeds, and Sheffield to visit the Coast, and it was further decided to ask Aberystwyth, Bar- month, and Pwllheli to entertain them for a, night and the Cambrian Railway to convey them through the district. It was suggested that £100 should be spent on advertising, and on the proposition of Mr. Williams, Criccieth, seconded by Mr. Peacock, it was decided to speno between £50 and £80 on advertising before Christmas. Mr. Richard Barnett said he was in full agreement with guide book advertising and thought it was being done on the right lines. The train service in the district was magnifi- cent and the Association had nothing to grumble about in that respect. <> Tlie Chairman said he was glad to see Mr. Barnett present after his recent illness. The Rev. Gwynoro Davies., asked if any member objected to the suggestion that per- sons outside the Association district advertise in the guide book a.t an extra change? Mr. Young. Pwllheli, said he had a decided objection against it as it was not fair to the districts which were in the Association. Mr. Williams, Criccieth, agreed, and it "a.. decided to give advertising space only to places in the Association. Mr. Newell, Portmadoc, said a suggestion was thrown out at the Directors meeting that if high class entertainments arranged for the winter, the Cambrian Railway should mn special trains so that persons staying in surrounding towns would attend. It might poi¡""r draw more visitors for the winter and mifht a source of revenue to the Company and to the district. That was done In other North Wales resorts. Mr. Burpess said he would brimg the madter to Mr. Williamson's notice. The Rev. Gwynoro Da view proposed tihai the

Llewelyn Owen executive officer.—Mr Robert Griffith (Messrs Lloyd George and George) prosecuted on behalf of tjie Food Ministry. Mr. E. H. Proud, barrister, Loudon, employed by the Ministry of Labour as re- setti ememft officer for Wales, said he ordered lunch for two. After lunch he ordered two bottles of a out and received a bit! for 10s. He asked the price of the stout which wag in- cluded in the bill, and was toid by the wait- ress that it was Is a bottle. He told her there had been an overcharge of leM. ().n each bottle. He was then told to see the M&nagereSg if he had any complaints to make. He went xo the office where he saw the book-keeper and the Manageress. He explained that there had been an overcharge en tbo two bottles of stoU", and the Manageress replied "That's our charge and you have got to pay it." He objected to pay- ing the extra 8d., and Miss O'Connor, JJie mantag-erefs, said: "You have got to pay it like everyone else." Ho told her that if others fools enough to pay it he and said he would røpor, the matter to the Food authorities. O'Cbnnor replied "You can report, the matter if you like." He then reported Vhe matter in the local Food Office?.-—Defendant denied that Major Proud interviewed Miss O'Connor at all. Mr. Proud spoke to the book-keeper only. There was no intention on the part of Miss O'Connor to contravene the orders. The offence was ccm- mi. ted, in entire ignorance and he pleaded guilty to the charge on that ground.—Thc Divisional Food Inspector said Miss O'Connor admitted the error and-said she did not offer, to refuld the money to Mr Proud. She said the offence had been committed in ignorance, but she realized tihat the plea of ignorance was no defence in law.—O'Dstan.-e O'Connor said she told the girl o tell Mr. Proud that Is was the charge. She denied having ever spoken with Mr Proud. ■L—1 A of £5 5s. was imposed: S3 3s. advocate's fee; and out of pocket expenses of Mr. Proud. The same defendant was summoned for having on September 5th failed to keep a* meal register.—Defendant pleaded guilty.—Mr Vaughan Davies said he asked Mss O'Connor to produce her register of meals. She replied "Tut tut; I cannot be bothered in a hotel like tDis, and it is ridiculous *o expect us to keep a register." Sbe then turned and walked away.—Cross eXam:ne1: He Tinted the hotel about 2.30 in the afternoon. Mr. Jen- kins said Miss O'Connor was busy wi'.h the dinners when the Inspector called and natur- ally was a little irritated. The register had been kept for a considerable period. He held that 'he Inspector did not ask for the register but for the invoices of meat. The invoices were thrown away after the .mcnthly state- ment was prepared and "herefore could not be procured.—Mis- O'Connor said it was im- pors'ble to keep a. register.—Mr. Jenkins said the keeping of a meat register was not done in every hotel.—Tn reply "to Mr. Martin Wi!- bams. fr.

r (Continued from previous column.) railway companies should be appealed to to grant tourist tickets in order to give families better facilities to go for holidays and also day tickets between Pwllheli and Aberyst- wyth. The old pre-war issue of tourist tic- kets was highly successful as was that of day tickets. Such tickets were not issued last year as the railway companies were bound by the orders of the Railway Executive Com- mittee. Mr Hughes Jones, Blaenau Festiniog, nsketl if Mr Davies's proposition included Festinhg Railway ? The Chairman thought the British Health and Holiday Resorts (Association should be asked to support the resolution. Tho proposi- tion was adopted. Mr. Young reverted to the question of a Sunday mail train up to Pwllheli. It was C a serious matter for business persons who came from the large towns for tho week end in North Wa/es. Mr. Toleman, Pwllheli, was of the same opinion, and said many visitors objected to going to Pwllheli because there was no Sun- day mail and communication was cut off from Friday until Monday. Mr. Williams, Criccieth, asked if it was not possible to get the urban councils to support a resolution to the 'Postmaster General? Mr. Barnett proposed that an appeal should be made to the Postmaster General direct. Dr. R, Jones-Evans said he was in favour of asking the councils to support a resolution to the Postmaster General. Mr. Price Lewis, Portmadoc. said the dis- continuance of trains on Sunday was partly the fault of the urban councils in that dis- trict. It was decided to send a direct appeal to the Postmaster General for » Sunday mail service to Pwllheli, and ask the Premier, Mr. Haydn Jones, M.P., and Major C. E. Breese, M.P., to support the appeal. Mr. W. T. Lewis, Borth, proposed that a prize of £5 should be offered for the twst form of advertisement in the guide book. Mr. Young seconded, and the proposition was carried. The delegates generally commented cn the improved train se-vice to and from the Cart- brian resorts. Alderman E. P. Wvnne, Aber- ystwyth, proposed that a hearty vote of thanks be passed to Mr. S. Williamson for the assist- ance rendered in connection with the Associa- tion and for the great improvement effected in the train service. The improved service would do much to bring into prominence the Cam- brian Bay re-sorts as winter resorts. The. climatic conditions were there, and with fast expresses to and from the Coast he honed the Resorts would be well patronised during the winter. Mr. Williams, Criccieth, seconded the resolu- tion, stating the general custom was to criti- cise the railways, but to be fair they could not, but thank the Cambrian Company for the service which existed. Mr Barnett, Dolgelley, supported the resolu- lntion. commenting that the train service was magnificent. The proposition was agreed to with enthusiasm. Mr. Cornelius Roberts, Pw11hcli, proposed a vote of thanks to the men who had feent the trains running during the strike week, but as votes of thanks had been passes at the urban councils and it was not deemed necessary bv the Association. Mr. Roberts's proposition found no seconder. Mr W. J. Williams, Blaenau Festiniog. asked Mr. Burre.ss if the Railway company could not afford to make better connection with the Festiniog railway. The last train wa-s nt 5 n.m. and he and his colleagues who had attended the meeting that day would have to motor bottn* from Pen-hvndendrasth. Burwess promisd to put the matter be- fo" Mr. Williamson. Dr. Jones Evans pro a. vote of thanks to the Chairman for his services which was carried.

The weight was exactly 4 lbs, for which defendant charged 6s. 4d. which came to Is. 7d. per lb. ins tead of Is 5d. Defendant said "You do not expect me to sell it at the controlled price when the cost of grading is so high."—Defendant was fined 10s. David Thomas, butcher, High-street, Port- madoc, was charged with the same offence- Mr. Horatio Jones appeared for the proecution and Mr. John Humphreys for the defence.— Inspector Williams said on September 12th he saw defendant's wife making up a basket of meat for a customer, consisting of dripping steak etc., a shouJder of mut on weighing 3lbs 7 oas. charged at 5s. 5d., whiCh worked out at I Is 7d. per lb. The meat in the basket worked out at lis 5d.. for which the customer war, asked tiD pay 12s.—Mrs Thomas said she must have made a mistake in reckoning up the amount and refunded 5 £ d—In reply to Mr. Humphreys, the Inspector said he saw no i lb. sausages in the baske, nor did Mrs Thomas or 'the customer mention sausage? He took down the account at Mrs Thomas dictation.— Mr Humphreys suggested that the lb of sausages would account, for the alleged over- f charge Janet Davies, Tremadoc, called "for the defence said she bought tjie meat at defendant's shop and paid 13s for the contents. Mrs. Thomas took out the meat at the Inspector's requeFtr She was certain there was sausages.—In cross-examination she admitted that she would have paid 5s 5d for the shoulder except for the presence of the Inspector.—Mrs Thomas was cabled and said that she made a mis ftke in adding up. She supplied 2 Ibs of sausages. She admitted having signed the Inspectors book containing a list of meatJs. but fa.id' sile did not know what it was. The sausages were bere and not mythical, and it was the Insinectorf, fault if they were not on his book.—Tfce charge was dismissed.

While food is scarce BUY YOUR LUNCH AT THE CHEMIST'S SANATOGEN (2 teaspooasfnl made with water) 2ld. SanatogenChocolate (PKrf) 9d. Tiil Whether as a routine lunch —or as an emergency meal to eke out your rations-you will find this an ideal phy- siological diet—all food and no waste-and easily digested by the feeblest stomach. Nothing else offers you such high food-power and energy-value—in such small bulk—and at such low cost. Try it to-day From Sanatogen itself you get the purest concentrated milk- protein Nature's body-build- ing food—perfectly combined with nerve-strengthening phos- phorus, so that both are fully assimilated. And chocolate when scien- tifically prepared and reinforced with Sanatogen provides ad- ditional protein, with fat and carbohydrates, in the most relishable form. It is completely oxidised in the body-checks nitrogenous wastage- counter- acts muscular fatigue and keeps up the bodily temperature in cold weather. Particularly valuable for children, too, who need more sugar than adults and are therefore hard hit by rationing. Your chemist sells Sanatogen, from 2/3 to 10/9 per tin, and Sanatogen Chocolate at 1/6 per packet. But stocks are limited and cannot be quickly replenished under present conditions, so get a supply now, while both products are still obtainable. GENATOSAN, LTD.

Our Portrait is of Mrs. E. Goff, of Beeches Cottage, Saltney Ferry, near Chester, who writes: For fiva years I suffered greatly from an ulcerated leg, which at one time was covered with open wound-, from knee to foot. there being as many as 21 wounds iu it at once. I tried all sorts of preparations and attended the Infirm- ary. but nothina seemed to do me any good, and I was sent away from the Infirmary as incurable. One day ray daughter saw Clarke's Blood Mixture advertised in a newspaper, -and read it to me. and I decided to give it a trial. Finding the first lot was duing me good I persevered with it. and after having four bottles my leg was completely healed. All this happened some eight yearn ago and I hai-r had no return of the trouble ever since."

Sciatica, Gout, or kindred complaints, should realise that lotions. ointments. &c. can but give temporary relief-to be sure of a cure complete and lasting, the blood must be thoroughly cleansed of the impure waste matter, the true cause of all suth troubles. Clarke's Blood Mixture quickly attacks, overcomes, and expels the impurities from the blood, that is why so many wonderful clires stand to its credit.

Especially has this been the case B i where the sufferers have been in the grip of some disorder of tfee » digestive system. For Beecham's Pills are primarily a digestive « medicine and their action, therefore, is principally directed to SB k correcting and removing derangements affecting the stomach, liver ft ^nd bowels. But their work does not end here, restoring tbe IB I faulty digestion to its normal efficiency the assinajation erf food te fS facilitated and tbe body is thus enabled to benefit ny its fuH measure |S 'of nourishment. The best results follow. The eyes recover their §8 brightness and the cheeks their colour; the mind becomes clearer «9 and more alert; the bodily energy is increased *ti there is a general wfi feeling of well-being which is constant and well established. 1# For "A Mew Lease of Life"—take M BEESHM'S PILLS I M Sold everywhere in boxes, labelled Is-3d and 3s-(n>.
