CYICIDFITIIAS yr Iaith Gymraeg" will not feel inclined to bless the Aberdare Edu- cation Committee, for that august body have refused any grant to the students attending the Welsh couise at Bangor this summer. Education authorities have a suspicion that many of those who are des- irous of attending Yr Ysgol Haf have no higher m0t .-C. it. view .1J;J. > h day gratis. The Mountain Ash Education Committee appeared to be somewhat im- pressed by this idea, although they concodad a grant. Of course such a sordid motive should be discouraged. But it is unfair that the grain and the chaff should be thus confounded; and that teachers who are sin- cerely anxious to learn Welsh for their own edification and that of their classes should be penalised for the sins of others who are mere holiday-seekers. This refusal will, however, answer one good purpose. It will put the genuineness of the 14 applications to the test. Those who are bent upon going to Bangor in order to partake of the fruit of the tree of knowledge, will go at all costs, while the disciples of the loaves and fishes-if there are any-will be weeded out by means of the no grant policy.

WE regret the necessity of calling atten- tion co an unworthy practice VVlllCh peVids with some of our correspondents. This week we received a letter for publication signed Aberamanite," in which the writer made an attack on the Aberdare Education Committee, more especially the chairman. That in itself was not strictly honourable But the writer's dishonourableness was J:F- ifie he gave us confidentially as a guarantee of good faith" a false name and address in Aberaman. That was a very audacious and a very cowardly act, the writer no doubt having in view the dual object of making us a weapon to attack his enemy and also a target for any retaliatory blows, This is the third attempt that has been made to impose upon us in this manner during the last few months, and—a strange coincidence—the familiar name "John Jones has been used by two of the tricksters. However we wish to inform these gentlemen and all others who may feel disposed to attempt a similar trick, that their little game will be useless, for we take special care to ascertain the bona-fides of all letters we publish. To conceal one's identity from the reading public when attacking a public man smacks of cowardice, but to approach the editor, and, while pretending to acquaint him with one's true identity, to give him a fictitious personality, is nothing less than a deliberate attempt to deceive. When guilty law. breakers give the police a false clue to their identity they are punished for it and held up to public scorn, and it is a pity that these mala fide correspondents could not be accorded a. similar treatment.

ROYALTY and "loyalty are the words in every mouth, and regal greetings fill the air. The King and Queen are on a visit to that part of their dominions which was associated with his Majesty's title before he became E-ing of England. Some years ago when our late Queen visited the Prin- cipality, there was a discordant note among the choruses of Welsh greetings to .,la]OSoy. Some aiutuiu Republicans thought it incompatible with their Democratic faith to welcome to the midst of Democratic people a personage wearing a crown. Since then Republicanism has become practically a dead letter with us. Some of the most bitter opponents of the Monarchy have confessed that a Repuolican Government would be useless without the republican virtues." Consequently, the question of effecting a radical change in our constitution has been adjourned sine die, as they say in the courts. On Wednesday, King Edward Vil. and Queen Alexandra visited Swansea opened a new dock there, conferred I knighthood on the Welsh mayor, FrJ, their appreciation of the Welsh choill. and all went merry as a marÓíbny. There was no sound other than note Who would dare whisper any d1 on such an occasion ? —
