MR. Li OYD-GEORGE "CAPPED" A PICTURESQUE CEREMONY AT BANGOR. SPEECH ON WELSH EDUCATION. iE^Jceyitional interest was taken in the ceremony of the degree of LL-D. honours conferred by the University of Wales, on Friday, upon Mr Lloyd-George, which took place at Bangor. Sir Isamlbard Owen, De- puty -Chatroelk'sr, preisid-ed-, supported by Principal Roberts (of Aberystwyth College), Sir Harry Reiohel, Processor J. Moriis Jones, Professor Edward Edwards, Lieut.- General Sir Jaimes Hills-Johns, iG.,C.B., V.C., Professor Jnwyl, and other members of the University Court. Mr H. C. Vin- cent, Mayor of Bangor, and the members of the Bangor -City Council were a^o pre- sent, as were the Senate and staff of the University College of North Wales. Every available seat in the building was ocoupiec for some time before the proceedings com- menced, and the old building resounded with the jocular cries of the fetiKlentt whic changed into hearty cheers as Sir Herber Roberts, Sir Frank Edwards, Mr Herbert igwis Mr W. Jones, Mr Ellis Davies, and others entered the building.. Mr* Lloyd- George, who was accompanied by Mrs Lewis Jones, was also present. A striking figure amongst the large num- ber of candidates for a degree was a nun wearing the white robes of her order instead or the academic costume prescribed for the <*6wSenly the tone of the chaffing changed, and persistent references to "Marchant evoked responses from the students, and some of the challenges and ræpos were full of point. Thus, "Who would kill the University f' was answered with tremend- ous foi^e—"Marchant." ,ooet in Wales?" cried a voice, John .Mor ris Jones," yelled the delighted students, the quip being very hugely enjoyed. The conferring of ceremonies on the students occupied the count over an honr, and then Dr Phillips led into the arena Mr J (Lloyd Williams, assistant lecturer in bo- tany at the University College of North (Wales, to receive the degree of Doctor of Science. T'hen the students united m a creat ovation to one otf their most popular instructors, which ended in^ the singing or. a jolly good fellow." When this cheering died away Professor J. Morris Jones became the centre of a STORM OF APPLAUSE, which prevented him for a considerable time from taking the first step in the initiation of Mr Lloyd-George. Departing from the usual Latin formula, Professor Morris Jonas spoke in W elsh. Then Mr Lloyd-George suddenly appeared in the deepening twilight in tihe middle of the arena. He was robed in academical vestments. Then appeared by his side Pro- fessor J. Morris Jones, and in dead silence lie recited, not in Latin, but in Welsh, the formula off introduction, at the close Or which he slightly raised .his cap, and gave Mr Llovd-George t,he signal to advance. The Chancellor of the Exchequer advanced amid' thundering cheers, through which a shrill voice cried "(Remember the Building Fund," and instankiy a roar ox laughter mingled with the deafening cheers. Then came silence as Mr Lloyd-George, having reached the presence, stood still himself openly lauighing at the apt allusion to his control off it-he imtoney ,bag\s just quoted. Here he was greeted by the Vice-Chancellor, and then handed over Ito the Deputy-Cnan- cellor. A cordial handshake with the war- den ended the formality. At the conclusion of the ceremony,^ Mr and Mrs Llovd-George were escorted along High-street to the house, of their host, Pro- fessor Lewis Jones, at Upper Bangor. Their -carriage was dragged all the way by en- thusiastic students, some 400 of whom were in the procession.

THE BANQUET In the evening the Chancellor was enter- stained at a banquet at the Penrhyn Hall. Lord Kenyon presided over a large and re- presentative gathering. The President also euJbmitJted "The Health of Dr Lloyd- George, our friend and. neighbour, and Chancellor otf the Exchequer of Great Bri- tain." His Lordship aid that there was r,orne advantage in having that toast pro- posed by a crusted old Tory like himself (laughter and applause). In .regard to new buildings, £ 50,000 had been raised volun- tarily and £ 20,000 received from the Trea- warv. It wias the duty of the State to back up voluntary effort, and they trusted that Mr Lloyd-George would not, because he be- longed to the University of Wales, pass them by. In the hope that others would follow the example, he had great pleasure in announcing that Sir Herbert Roberts had just given £ 1000 to the building fund (applause). MR LLOYD-GEORGE. Mr Lloyd-George, upon rising to reply, was received with considerable enthusiasm. In the course of his speech he vai-d :—(My first exiperience of any .public financial ad- roinisttrative work was in connection with receiving money for the college of Bangor. I remember very well we had a meeting summoned at Oriocieth otf some or; the lead- ing citizens. I remember perfectly well a tall man, with kindly ehrewd eyes, say that they wanted money to build a popular col- lege at Bangor. Wihen he mentioned, the sum required, it appa'lied me. I never iknew there was so much spare cash through- out the whole of North Wales; but I found out more after he had spotken—-that there was cash available, and that it would find ite way into the coffers otf this college (cheers); and I remember how, at the end of the meeting, our secretary, the late Mr Gadwaladir Davies Cheers), (whose death was one of the greatest losses that Wales ever sustained, was full otf enthusiasm.. I 4started then collecting money for the Uni- versity of Wa;les. I hope, before I have parted with the Exchequer, to do something towards carryinig on my work .(Icheers). lForty years ago we had no university in SVales. We had very few secondary schools, and most of them were barred to the bulk Of the people by reason of their #rrea.t expense in the matter of fees. Now we have ninety-eight such schools, all of them accessible to the sons and daughters of the people. There are 13,Coo students at those schools, four-fifths of whom have come from the elementary schools (cheers). In 1672 Sir Hugh Owen and others (cheers) t at-arted the University College at Aberyst- wyth, and they faced •A GIGANTIC TASK, and they had to woik very hard. The ctudent.s there had numbered ninety-three hut the number fell down to fifty-three, and it looked at one time as if the whole thing would end in a dismal failure. 'But instead of fifty-three students, we have now three colleges, and not far ;I'om 1500 students at the present moment. The whole story of the building uip of this system is a romance Aheer, hear). The devotion, the effort, and sacrifice which was made -is one of the finest stories in the hist-ory of our race. It is not merely that we educate 15CO students. No; the building up of this system was in itself a system of national education. The Welsh people were taught in that struggle the value of education, and they were given a thirst for knowledge. It is not merely that we have collected hundreds and thou- sands of pounds, but a much greater t lin;, than that. Hundreds of thousands at. t eo pie contributed to it (applause). A poor ,ii«J who has gone to the university and got tne best, education available is quite a common occurrence now. This is quite a new thing :n the history of our race, and it has altered the whole status of the people (applause). B'ut there is a danger, as Lord Kenyon has pointed out, in even boasting of what has been done. There is a. danger of our feel- ing that there is nothing more that can be done. As a matter off fact, we are only be- ginning (applause). I quite agree with Lord Kenyon that we must not expect much 'from Governments (laughter and applause). The worst thing in the world for a country would be to have its colleges built by the Government. I have seen criticisms about the way universities have been established in Ireland, how huge grants of money have been given for buying the sites and for building colleges, equipping them and en- dowin-, them. I know the taunt has been flung at us that this PRffNOELY GIFT compares very unfavourably with the miser- able pittance that has been given to Welsh education (hear, hear). Now the worst thing to be done for the Welsh people would be for any Government to take out of their hands a task, of that kind (hear, hear). The circumstances of Ireland are entirely differ- ent. It has a much poorer .population, and there are other conditions to justify a de- parture from the ordinary course of pro- cedure, but at the same t,ime I agree with Lord Kenyon that the time has arrived when the Government can render /further assistance, and further effective assistance, to the cause- of Welsh ed.ucation (loud ap- plause). I should say that at the present moment the one great need of our colleges. is a very ordinary and a very commonplace one—it is cash (laughter). The Treasury Committee who have -been investigating the needs of the Welsh Colleges speak very highly of the work done. THEY REALLY .MARVEL at what has been accomplished with the means at the disposal of those who are run- ning the machine, and they give several on. stances in which much more could be done j by these colleges if they had more money at their disposal. That is the report I have ;got to consider. I have had before me de- putations, who Placed the facts before mo in full force and light, and I have tried to consider the matter as carefully as I coi.i'd, but I do not think the time has come for me to 6ay what assistance can be given, but it. is my duty-not as a Welshman {laughter)., but as ,1. Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, reviewing the whole of the cir- cumstances, not merely of Wiales, but of Ireland, and the demands of English and Scotch e,ducation-it. is my duty to make a very substantial contribution towards the sfunds of the University of Walee; (loud cheers). In Bangor you have had .large subscriptions from the Treasury for build- ing purposes. Well, my opinion is that it is the duty oif the people olf North Wales to complete that work, but there is a great doal that ought to be done in the way of increasing the staff, improving the condition off the staff, increasing and improving the equipment of the colleges. I say advisedly that one of the first things that ought to be done with any grant from -he Treasury is to increase the salary of the poopl* who have the ability, for the purpose of estab- lishing and perfecting the "ligier e-lucation of Wales (loud cheers). It is s.ggected that we should spend more money upon research (cheers.). There are things you cannot es- tablish at once. You must have not rnerely teachers. but explorers hear). y;, must not be IN A HfUURf either, and I .bolieve the We,i people are lather addicted to that. They have courage and daring, they have endurance and pa- tience, and they have got— Lord Kenyon reminds me-imagina'tion. Tmy have got simplicity of thought and haoit, which I think is very (important; and I should like to see the time arrlv-ng when Welsh- men will make their mark in the field of exploration. We had one very aistin- Euifched explorer in Africa (loud cheers), but there are dark forests in other places than Africa. Science has 'It those cark 'forests unlimited, continents mapless, un- limited oceans chartless (an. iausvi. I shall believe in the triumph of Weh education when I can see sheets, wli' h are now mere outlines, crowded with the discoveries of Welsh explorers in these regions !\s). I lope to see the colleges brought, into closer contact by and bye with "Welsh industries (cheers). I have not seen it yet, but we need not be in a hurry. That- is not the way Germany began. Germany eaid, "You must have a university to teach and educate and to develop the German mind, and then after a generation had elapsed the effort was seen in German industries." I went into one of the greatest workshops in Ger- many three months ago, and was taken round by a professor. I wanted to know what a professor had to do with it, and they said, "The professors are our experts." They got their ideas from the professors. That is coming in Wales. Our indtistriec, are rather too primitive. It is true that we have picked our coal out of the bowels of the earth and (blasted rookiS into slates for .generations; but the igreat industries that furnish these products are elsewhere (hear, hoar). I don't like that, Welsh brains are fitted for better things (hear, hear). We are just at the beginning of things, and a great beginning it is. It is in the Univer- sity that the future of this country is being forged (applause). Let ufl alj help. There I is no investment that will give such a re- turn as an investment in Welsh education. It is because I believe that the University of Wales is doing that service, and it is because I believe that Sir Isambard Owen (loud and prolonged cheers), with his un- failing tact, with his unerring judigment, with his courage, his untiling industry, is leading the University along the right path, that I feel a. joy in proposing to-night "The University of Wales' 'and in coupling with it the name of Sir Isambard Owen (loud cheers). Sir Isambard Owen responded, and the Vice-iCihantoeJlor ('Principal Roberts) pn- posed "The Principal." Sir Ha.rry Reichel replied to the toast of I the University College of North Wales. "The President" was toasted, on the pro- position cif the Mayor of Bangor (Mr H. C. Vincent).

As Bangor were playing Llandudno last Saturday in a Welsh Senior Cup-tie, Car- narvon were unable to bring off their League fixture, with the City team. The Executive had arranged a match on the Oval between the Seniors and Juniors. This match came off before a fair crowd of spectators, and ended in a win for the Sen- iors by six goals to one. It a a The play at the start was of a very even and interesting charadter, and we soon saw the sides with a goal each to their credit. However, before half time, the Seniors man- aged to secure three more goals. although they had by no means monopolised the play to the extent indicated by the score. The second half was more or less a repetition of the first and the Seniors managed to secure two more goals and ran out easy winners of rather a poor game. a The Juniors showed up well on the whole to their formidable rivals, but they were decidedly stronger in midfield than in front of Val. Of the forwards, R. Trevor Ro- berts was decidedly the best, showing ex- remelly pi-ettjy football fait timest The halves were all good, particularly Settle and Davies. The two backs did fairly well but R. Lloyd Hughes has not come to his form yet. Lovell did very well, and is improv ing with every match. W. Hughes in goal, despite the six goals against him, was re- sponsible for some very clever Saves. The Seniors were minus the services of Lloyd Hughes and Walter Jones, both being in- disposed. There was no feature in the Seniors' display that called for special at- tention, but the right and left halves must learn to mark the outside men better. They are two splendid players, but have a tend- ency to roam in a desire to do more work, lMark the outside men well, and you will save your side from many dangers. This will also tend to a.. better understanding with the backs behind you. < Carnarvon are now in for two important ,sup-ties, as they meet their keen rivals Pwllheli on the Oval next Saturday, in a. North Wales Senior Cup-tie; and Beau- maris away the following Saturday in the Welsh Amateur Cup Competition. The Carnarvon Executive have decided to put the same eleven on the field as did duty at Pwllheli, and we understand that Pwllheli intend doing the same. So we are in for a splendid fight, and football enthusiasts will witness one of the keenest struggles. It is very difficult to predict the result, but on form and with a fair amount of luck '(which they did not get at Pwllheli), Carnarvon should run out winners. Against Beaumaris, Carnarvon are in more or less of a fortunate position as they play a purely local team, whilst their op- ponents have a good number of foreigners.. who are ineligible by the five mile rule of the Welsh Association. Still Beaumaris bave-very capable reserves and will turn out a very strong team. ♦ On Saturday at rwIlheli the Reserves played Bangor Druids, and beat them by six goals to one. It was a friendly match. —The Portmadoo Intermediate School eleven beat the old pupils team by 13 goals to two. In the Coast League, Holyhead enter- tained Conway at the Ival on Saturday, the latter having five reserves on, while the home team had been somewhat re-arranged. The teams were: -H<)Iyhead Goal, Collier; backs, W. H. Parry and Row- land Williams; halves, W. Brown, W. T. Jones and R. Ellis; forwards, Salisbury Owen, J. Rowlands (captain), R. IC. Jones, J. Wallis Jones, and H. Brown. Conway Goal, Daniels; backs, Tom Jones, 0. Ellis; halves, Arthur Owen, Bob Owen, Wilson; forwards, W. Owen, W. Evans, Atherton, Sam Parry, and Stone. « » About three minutes from the start the homesters drew first blood. Dick Ellis had wriggled through a crowd of opponents into a fairly good position about 20 yards from goal, and as the crowd yelled "shoot!" Dick did so and banged the leather against the crossbar. The rebound and the force of the wind carried the ball out of the reach of Daniels, and Bob Jones reached it just in time to event a clearance by Tom Jones, the home centre drawing first blood for the homesters. The second goal fol- lowed a brilliant movement by Wallis and Brown, the latter sending across the goal- mouth, where Rowlands tipped it in. < The third goal for Holyhead was one of the most brilliant things of the match. Bob Owen had the ball when Rowlands rushed at him, swept the ball from his toe and sent forward to Salisbury, who was on the wing. The latter swung around Wilson, and drib- bling past Ellis and Tom Jones, successfully .got in a beautiful oblique shot from a most, difficult position. The ball struck the corner of the post, and screwed off into the net. By this splendid effort, Salisbury proved that he had at last found his old form, and was loudly cheered for this, the third point of the match. The Conway forwards rushed away from the centre and had a good look in, but never gave Collier much cause for anxiety, for they seemed powerless to send in accurate shots. Another fine run down the left of the Holyhead team followed, and the home centre parted to Rowlands, who again passed forward, R. C. shooting in a low deadly one which beat Daniels hope- lessly, thus getting the fourth goal for the homesters. Another goal came soon after when Salis- bury, midway between the half line and the visiting goal, sent smartly across to the left after drawing the visiting defence, and Hugh Brown sent in a terrific grounder, which Daniels did not even attempt to stop. The visitors dashed away from the centre, and looker like lowering iCollier's unbeaten record (in this match), but the veteran cus- todian proved to be on the alert, and brought off a .grand sa.ve from'Atherton. The half time score was, Holyhead 5, Conway 0. Six more goals were added in the second half, the Swifts being easily the better team. The final score was:-Hoiyhead 11, Conway 0.

Eczema Expelled MR. JOHN CHAMBERLAIN TELLS HOW HIS SUFFERINGS FROM SKIN DISEASE WERE CURED BY DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS. "To euch an extent was I disfigured by Eczema a one time that I shunned the so- ciety of all my acquaintances; I worried over my afflictions, indeed, until I became quite depressed and melancholy." That was the &tate of Mr John Chamberlain, ( when he realised that the mischief origi- nated in his blood and that outward appli- cations could not touch the source of his trouble. In Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People he found the New, Good Blood that alone keeps the skin and body nour- ished and healthy. Mr John Chamberlain, for long associated with the Boot industry in Leicester, and now residing at 26, Lower George Street, Leicester, (Pntintied "The first warning I received was in the I form of a peculiar rash that appeared oil my left arm; then spots appeared on my face. Froni time to time I ap- plied different lo- tions that. I ob- tained from chem- ists, but nothing kopt the izema from spreading; my other arm be- came afflicted, then my chest and sides; my skin as- sumed the appear- ance of having been ecallded and flayed, and indeed, 1 the pain was even worse. I tried many ointments, etc., but my suffer- ings remained in- tense. I was driv- < en nearly de- A peculiar rash appeared om my arm. mented by the continual irritation which made me feel that I could tear my fiesh away. "I consulted a doctor, but after taking his medicine for six weeks I seemed to be much worse. I then tried various blood mixtures, but batches of white watery blis- ters simply kept forming all over my body, and bursting into angry sores. I was de- prived of sleep, for at nights

I SEEMED TO BE ON FIRE, and could not bear the bed-clothes to touch me where my skin was .affected. "The Eczema made such rapid headway that it seemed certain enough to me that I should never be free from it. However, 1 a friend hearing of my trouble explained that the only sure cure for Eczema was Dr Williams' Pink Pills. So I bought a sup- ply of these pills and took them regularly. "After a little while the raw sores felt less irritating. Then the irritation stoadLy I eased, and from day to day patches of the sores dried up and healed quite cleanly. After a few more boxes of Dr Williams' Pink Pills all signs of Eczema left me. I could sleep well at nights, life became quite a pleasure to me I feit like a new .man.
