CONWAY BOARD OF GUARDIANS. The Rev Venables Williams (chairman), trho was congratulated on his first appear- ance after his recent illness, presided at the meeting on Friday. In reply to a letter rom Mrs Henry Mostyn, the Board sub- scribed £2 28 to the Conway Nurses' Insti- tute. Mr Bicrham, the Government in- spector, said that pauperism in Wales had increased slightly during 1896, but it was entirely due to some unions in South Wales where the tinplate industry had been bad. In the agricultural districts pauperism had gone down. The unions of North Wales had shown a slight reduction. He must say that the Conway Union had borne a very good character as compared with the others. Their percentage was 2 8, as compared with 3.2 over all the country. But still there was the necessity of going more thoroughly into the relief lists, and from his experience -that morning the officers ought to be more up 10 date in giving information as to families re- lieved. He had never agreed with the idea of tha chairman in havinpthe meetings monthly instead of fortnightly. By meeting fort- nightly the relief lists could be kept much more under control than at present.
