Whilst on a visit to Swansea a few days ago, two Aberdare ladies, Mrs. Thomas, fruiterer, 37 Canon Street, and Miss A. Drew, par- ticipated in the joy of an aeroplane ride. They were in the air fully fifteen min- utes and thoroughly enjoyed their ex- perience. They are, we believe, the first two local ladies to take part in the more modern type of "joy ride." I.O.G.T.— The weekly session was held at Green Street Wesleyan Schoolroom on Friday night. The lodge was opened by Bro. E. M. Jones, V. Templar, who gave a very interesting address on H Bible Temperance," in which all the members took part. Bro. H. Kelly gave a solo, "The promised Land."

"""T__..... TABERNACLE, ABERDARE.…
"T_ TABERNACLE, ABERDARE. BRITAIN'S MOOD OF SELF-GLOPI i. He that glorieth let him glory in the Lord." From these words in 2 Cor. 10, 17, the Rev. T. M. Jeffreys, pastor of Tabernacle Cong. Church, preached on Sunday evening. He remarked that now we as a nation were glorying. Glorying j was natural and not sinful, but there was a danger of it becoming reduced to brag. Herod came to a bad end—was eaten up by worms—because he gave not the glory to God. The worms that ate Germany up commenced their work half a century ago—so we said. It was then the seeds of its destructive madness were « sown. We were rejoicing and glorying in our deliverance to-day. Was there health in Britain's soul or had the worms begun their fatal work? With- out thinking himself a pessimist he must say he did not like its mood-the mood of its praise. Materialism dominated tlio ideals of labour no less than those j of capitalism, (fur glory needed analys- ing. We had been thanking God but there appeared to be a lot of lip service about it. The idea of bringing the ex- Kaiser to London had rather ctitrtied him (the preacher). It seemed to be so cheap and melodramatic. Were we so meek and modest as we pretended? We seemed to have given the impression abroad that we were a nation of swag- gerers. Mark Twain had cynically said that the British were mentioned in the Bible—" Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth." Mark Twain I was rather cruel in his sarcastic indict- ment. He might have looked nearer home. However it behoved us to look near home at the present time, and see in what spirit we had been congratulat- ing ourselves It would be well for us to examine our national health. Even Rudyard Kipling, the accredited apostle of Imperialism, had in his famous Ee- cessional warned us against this ten- dency. True glory implied the recognis- ing of God in the victory and after the victory. The Jews of old became spir- itual braggarts and this type eventually culminated in the Pharisee. We were victorious in this war not because we were chosen or because we were right but because God was right. What we required was a spiritual vision in which we discerned the power of God not our own might. The clamour, the spirit of unrest and mistrust which prevailed in England to-day was not in harmony with the spirit of God. He (the preach- er) 'might be-like the gloomy Dean- accused of being a pessimist, but he must repeat that he did not consider that the self-glory of to-day augured well for Britain's future. What was re- quired was a mood of consecration to overcome the world.

TRINITY, ABERDARE. i
TRINITY, ABERDARE. The Hev. W. J. Clothier, B.A., B.D., Pengam, preached at Trinity on Sunday. He addressed the children at the morn- ing^ service taking Inquisitiveness" as his subject. He remarked that 'he habit of asking questions continually, which was characteristic of some chil- dren, indicated a living, active little mind. Mr. Clothier took 1. Peter, i., 8, 9, as the text of his sermon. There was a love begotten of fellowship, a love born of communion. Such was tli\ love, suid the preacher which was mentioned in the text. We also saw here the union of belief. To believe on him." Clirist- ianity was more than a. belief; it was a leaning on a divine person. The result of this double union of love and belief was unspeakable joy.
