RHYL BOYS' BRIGADE. SIXTH ANNUAL MEETINC. CLUB ROOM TO BE ERECTED. Last evening the sixth annual meeting of the Rhyl Boys' Brigade was held at the Town Hall. Thare was a large attendance, the chair being taken by Mr J Y Strachan, in the absence of Mr M A Ralli, who was supported by Messrs WJP Storey, J L Muspratt, and F L Rawlins. In opening the proceedings the Chairman said that he was pleased to see the good work which the Brigade was doing in Rhyl, and said that people could not help noticing that there was a marked change in boy-life in the town since it had been formed (hear, hear). Mr W S Vallance, of Glasgow, then gave interestiug recitals, varied in character, but all delivered in a masterly style. The annual report of the working of the Rhyl Boys' Brigade was read by Mr Rawlins, in which it was stated that the movement was first introduced into Rhyl by Capt Campbell in September, 1891, and was for a time a sur- prising success. They were thankful to report that considering its unfavourable surroundings the progress had passed all the trying periods. Of the many sided work of the Boys' Brigade religious instruction was only one, but of course the most important side, and one they had fortunately been able to carry on with a considerable amcunt of success. Meetings had been regularly held on Sunday afternoons, the proceedings consisting of reading | singing, an address and prayer. The average attendance was 35. The other branches of the Brigade were varied by the needs of the boys. The Brigade had never hnen able to attempt much, owing to the great drawback of having no suitable quarters. For some years Sergt. Parcell had given the boys manual exercise and instruc- tion. They had also had fairly successful ambulance classes, and, at one time a tolerably proficient drum and fife band. The ambition of the officers, from the first, was to build up a club in which to develop the resources of the movement It was not until the annual meeting in 1892 that anything was done, and then Mr Pickop Dutton gave £ 100 to start with. That gift was followed by a like sum from OlnA tn whom the Rhyl Boys' Brigade owed much-Mr M A Ralli Miss Rnth Evans made the fund into £ 300. Since then they had received help from the Duke o! Westminster Mrs Nicholson, Mr Tate, MrR- S. Hudson, andShS' One day ther were star tied by the announcement that Miss Evans had bequeathed £500 to the Brigade, and Mrs Nicholson had also promised to leave a like sum (cheers). They were there- fore m a position to consider practically the question of erecting the club buildmgs. it Wftg ™-or»osed to do so in May, on a field off the Vale-road immediately behind the British Schools.

The Publishers venture to quote from a circular letter written by one of the Bishops, while calling general attention to Diocesan Calendars :— Few persons appear to be aware of the large amount of useful diocesan information which these cheap little volumes contain. They supply a correct list of the incumbents, the curates, and the churchwardens in each of our Rural Deaneries. The population and income of every living and the names of the patrons. A most useful list of all clergymen licensed in the diocese, with their names and addresses. A full account of all the Diocesan Institutions, religious and educational. Of all foreign and home missionary societies which are supported in the diocese. It supplies a list of all officials of the cathedral, the Rural Deans and Surrogates. It gives a list of all the dioceses in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and the Colonies. It supplies full information about ordinations confirmations and consecration of churches. It gives a record of work done in the diocese during the year, of the Diocesan Conference, an abstract and summary of return of the parochial work, taken from official documents. In fact there is nothing which a man can want to know about the diocese which he will not find in the Calendar. The cost is only one shilling a year 1 Considering the very large amount of labour which the compila- tion of a Diocesan Calendar requires, I think the little book is very cheap. The Churchman who buys a Calendar will soon find that he has not thrown his money away." Printed and Published by PEARCE & JONES," Journal Office," RHYL. Masquerade & Fancy Dress Ball.

Prestatyn under a Cloud. BIB,-It does not require more than a general obser- vation to conclude that business is as bad as is possible, that money is scarce, and the outlook gloomy for Prestatyn, unless matters improve. I am not at all surprised that the Urban Council find it difficult to collect the General District Rate. What is the cause of so sudden a reverse to the prosperity ot the place? Public opinion says we are now paying for the luxury of a District Council, and that unless our Councillors exercise more discretion than in the past they will find the rateable assessment getting seriously reduced. Be this as it may, my object is to try and shew a practical remedy for some of the depression. For many months close observations have been made of the extent of the shopping that is done out" of Prestatyn. In one month alone no less than 465 resi- dents visited other towns, returning home by railway, carrying strong proof of having left a considerable sum of money behind them. This is as unjust as it is unfair to the shopkeepers of the town, who in the aggregate make up a very large proportion of the rateable value for assessment. There does not appear to be any con- cealment on the part of residents in treating their friends and townsmen so unneighbourly, therefore if their attention is arrested by this letter, possibly practice will be discontinued. The residents of neighbouring towns do not come to Prestatyn to shop, therefore why should Prestatyn support outsiders, and by so doing make it easier for them to provide for the payment of rates and make it all the harder for Prestatyn tradesmen to satisfy their Rate Collector ? There is no doubt if the tradesmen could depend upon getting their legitimate share of the trade of the town more encouragement would be given for them to stock every requisite, and thus keep their cus- tomers at home. There is nothing so safe » sfgn of prosperity as a steady increase in the circulation of money in the town. Other causes of the melancholy state of affairs will be found amongst the objectionable licensed and unlicensed hawkers, the support given to and encouragement of tradesmen's vans from other towns making a house to house canvas. To secure the general prosperity of the Place everything that is possible should be done to discourage these poaching elements. And I see no reason why artizans from our neighbouring town should be brought in by train in t e morning) and returning at night without spending a )enny. Better by far employ « T.<n.rat-A\n«.vp,r Yours. &c.. ,"r\
