Mr. Colin McLven introduced the service, and Miss A. < G. George presided..Miss Lee de- livered an address on "The Pilgrim Fathers." She remarked that tins was an old subject, and possibly averybody, even the children, had read about the "Mayflower. There were, however, many details which were not too well known, and she proposed enlarging upon some of those particulars. Miss Eee then raced the movement from its in- ception, referring to the persecu- tion and imprisonment of those people who were of opinion that the Reformation did not go far enough, and who wished to worship God in their own way. About that tinie., 300 years ago, Holland was looked upon as a land where freedom of opinion *vas tolerated. The Pilgrims, who had worshipped in a certain village, made surreptitious efforts to emigrate to Holland, but only a few succeeded, and the others were put in gaol several times. Miss Lee passed on to deal with the rough passage of.the "Mayflower," and the landing on Plymouth Rock, America, and the difficulties encountered • during the first winter in settling down there.—In the evening Miss Lee preached very effectively on Our dutv to the next generation. —Miss S. George presided at the organ throughout the day.

TftECYNGN AND LLWYDCOED NOTES. BY MAUCMLLO. Young Bounce has shaved off his Charlie Chaplin moustache. This looks suspicious. Is it the police or the military that is on his track r The lovers in the Trecynon Arcade the other night carried on a very animated discission. I would ad- vise them to debate in a. lower key next time, for their conversation was repeated verbatim) the following day. Two Llwydcoed women are gener- ally on the most friendly terms but now and again a breeze ruffles their neighbourly cordiality, and then the lender taunts the borrower and tells her—and incidentally other neigh- bours—of the many acts of benevo- lence bestowed on her. Moral Neither a borrower nor a lender be. Ap Barley says he is going away to operate a mowing machine, that he will get the regulation wage, plenty of good food, and a quantity of cider. I am afraid that that last item will be the means of his disqualification. On. when is that Prohibition coming! The man with the fawn trilby. 1 Hah tie and a silver handle walking I stick is doing his rounds nightly in •certain quarters in Trecynon with the regularity ol' a sen'trv. No, he is not a special constable but he has a special job on—very mnc-h so. I I have not heard much of Goliath lately. I am sure the giant must have some giant beans or potatoes' to talk about now. Perhaps he is keeping things qrriet for the flower show. Silence is golden N-liell voll are making a bid for gold prizes. The mice have been at it again. But this time the cat was on the qui vive, and the damage was nil. Tom Thumb sends his greetings to Popcorn, Cwmdare, ("0 Raffle's, j and hopes to meet him by the foun- tain at the Wells in Aligns and have a mutual tiddley.

George Williams arrested defendant itt Victoria St., Miskin. She fetched one pair of boots to liiin.—Stipendiary (to de- fendant) This is a very serious case. The evidence shows that you are be- coming a confirmed thief. You com- mit three robberies on three separate days, and that shows vou are making a practice of it. In 1912 you were convicted and fined 20s. forl stealing boots. You have five children and a baby in arms, and considering that we have decided not to send vou to prison.
