Church of England Waifs' and Strays' Society. MEETING AT RHYL. ARCHDEACON EVANS AND TVE INDIFFERENCE OF 1 CHURCH PEOPLE. The annual meeting in eonnectioll with the Noith Wales Fund on behalf of the above Society was held in the Church House, Rhyl, on Tuesday afternoon, under the presidency of Sir Robert Curiliffo. Amongst those present were Lady Cunliffe, the Archdeacons of St Asaph and Montgomery, the Ilevs T Lloyd (Rhyl), () J Davies (Prestatyn), and C F Roberts (Llanddulas), Mrs Williams Wynn, Miss Williams Wynn (diocesan secretary), Mrs J Duncan Miller, Mrs Ffoulkes, and Mrs Tidswell (secretary for Rhyl). The annual report was presented by the Rev Philip Rees, of Chester, organism? secretary for the dioceses ol St Asaph, Bangor, and Chester. It opened with a reference to the working of the various homes in North Wales, special mention being made of St Giles' Home, Wrexham, which was opened in December last by Lady Ppnrhyn and dedicated by the Bishop of St Asaph, and which already afforded shelter to from 18 to 20 boys. Satisfactory accounts of the working of St Melangell's Home, Rhyl, St Mark's, Carnarvon, and St Mark's, Tre- garth, were given. Mr Rees went on to say that in last year's report the Committee ex- pressed a hope that as a result of the estab- lishment of St Giles' Home at Wrexham the Society would derive greatly increased support from the diocese of St Asaph. That hope had been fully realised, for compared with 1901 there had been an increase towards the homes of £154 14s lid (applause). When, however, they examined the ordinary fund they were sorrv to have to report a decrease in their receipts of 91)8 18s 4d. They regretted that the annual subscriptions, which should be the mainstay of the fund, had decreased from JE447 12s Id to zC426 15s 7d, private collections had decreased from 2142 13s 4d to £ 86 os 5d, contributions for special cases from £ 109 19s 9d to £82 8s 8d, and the proceeds of meetings and sales from JED8 5s 8d to £ 165 18s 4d. On the other hand it was gratifying to find that Church offertories had increased from EQ,4 4s lOd to £ 110 12s 5d, Lenten savings from £10 9s lOd to zC20 17s 9d, and donations from £50 16s 7d to £58 14s 3d. If they included the Wrexham Home Fund in the general North Wales Fund there was an increase in every item with two exceptions, and the totals worked out as follows 1901, £1,378 9s 5d 1902, zCl,434 6s Od increase, R55 16s 7d. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report, thought that on the whole they might look upon it as a satisfactory one, and he trusted that at the next annual meeting they would find that there had been anjimprovoinent in every direction. Having alluded briefly to the lamentable circumstances connected with the Arthog Home (which he left to the speaker following him to deal with more fully), he spoke of the keen interest shovvn in the Waifs and Strays' Society, especially with regard to the Wrexham Home, by Lady Pcinhyn, He believed that the Wrexham Home would prove a good investment to the Society. The Rev Mr Rudolph, the Society's deputa- tion, seconded the adoption of the report, and also addressed the meeting on behalf of the Society, which, he reminded his hearers, was an officially recognised organisation of the National Church, and was therefore entitled to the support of all Church people. Though there were 3,000 children under its care, there still remained a great work for it to do. Its usefulness and the extension of the sphere of its labours depended as much on the efficiency shown in the working of the different branches as upon the funds at its command. He thought it was a reproach to Church people that this Society only stood second in regard to the work in which it was engaged, and he hoped that nothing would be lacking either in the matter of administration or of support to enable it to secure that position which he maintained it should occupy (applause). The report was then unanimously adopted. The Archdeacon of Montgomery (Ven. D R Thomas) proposed a vote of thanks to the honorary diocesan secretaries and collectors in North Wales for their services during the past year. In doing so, he referred to Mr Rudolph's note of regret that the Society did not occupy the foremost place amongst those of its kind. He thought they ought to bear in mind that this was an age of institutions, and it was satis- factory to find that outside the Church of England there were also many people who were fully conscious of th? existence of destitute and neglected children in their midst. That those other institutions had justitied their existence was proved by the response to their appeals to the country. No one, however, could doubt the strength of the claims of the Church of England Waifs' and Strays' Society, and he trusted that it would meet with what it richly deserved—increased support from year to year-so that it could the better discharge the duties it had taken upon itself, for they might depend upon it there would always be waifs and strays in their midst. Mr P H Chambres seconded, and the motion was carried with acclamation. The Archdeacon of St Asaph (Yen David Evans), in proposing a vote of thanks to Mr Rudolph for his address (this being seconded by the Vicar of Rhyl, warmly approved by the audience, and suitably acknowledged), said that as a Church they were not, perhaps, so energetic in regard to the waifs and strays movement as they might be, and in regard to matters affect- ing the poor generally. Church people did not trouble to secure Churchmen as their represen- tatives on Boards of Guardians, and the con- sequence was that, although the law of the country provided for the appointment of a workhouse chaplain, there were instances in which that provision was not carried out. There were ways of getting round an Act of Parliament, and the game was played even in workhouses. One result of this in- difference on the part of Church people was that they had lose a good many children who ought to have been brought up in the faith of the Church of England. He knew of a work- house, not a hundred miles away from where he came from, where the religious instruction imparted to the children was practically the choice of the master, who was a Wesleyan. Some years ago a professional man in North Wales suddenly made himself scarce, not for any good that he had done, and ultimately the wife and two children he had left behind found themselves on the point of starvation. They had managed to make their way to the Channel Isles, where in their distress they fell into the kindly hands of a Roman Catholic priest, the result of which was that they were not only saved from what might probably have been -+"+- death from hunger, but they were the same day received into the Roman Catholic Church, to the loss of the Church of England. If Church people did but exert themselves more in regard to this great question there was no doubt that the number of waifs and strays at present under the Society's care could be doubled, although of course the doubling of the number of homes would mean greatly increased financial support, which he trusted everybody interested in the welfare of these poor children would be ready to accord the Society (applause). Votes of thanks to the Vicar of Rhyl for the use of St Thomas' Church and the Church House and to Sir Robert Cunliffe for presiding brought the meeting to a close. It should be added that in connection with the meeting there was a service in the morning at St Thomas' Church, at which the -71 Vicar of £ Rhyl officiated and the Rev R Hawley Sharpe, Liverpool, was the preacher.

Annual Parish Meeting at Rhuddlan. The annual parish meeting for Rhuddlan was held on Monday evening at the Boys' School, Mr W Morris (chairman of the Parish Council) presiding over a meagre attendance. There were present Councillors John Roberts (vice-chairman), R C Enyon, J.P., W Conwy Bell, Jos Roberts, and John Jones, while the ratepayers present were the Rev T W Vaughan (vicar), Messrs R Morris (Hendre), W Jones (Church Gates), and Jos Griffiths (Cross Street). The minutes of the last parish meeting were read by the Clerk (Mr Jas Kilner) and con- tinued. A summary of the proceedings of the Parish Council for the year was read, from which it appeared that 16 meetings had been held, and the various subjects dealt with were enumerated, including correspondence with the County Council in reference to a dangerous step in High Street, and also the state of the river bridge. A list was also read of those who received the benefits of Croesyberllan Charity (Bodrhyddan), and the administration of it by the Vicar and Mr Thos Hughes (Penybont) was approved by the meeting. The Chairman expressed surprise at the small attendance of ratepayers, and invited observations on the work of the Parish Council for the year. The Bridge. The Vicar and Mr Enyon inquired as to the date of the correspondence re the river bridge and if any reply had been received from the County Council. The Clerk replied that a letter was sent on the 2nd inst, but they had not received any answer. Mr Bell justified the action of the Parish Council in the matter, and said something should be done immediately to protect the centre pillar, because if that collapsed the whole structure would be endangered. Some years ago the old lock-up was demolished, and the stones from it were placed around this centre pillar, as a means of protection no doubt. But perhaps that action had assisted at the undermining process. No one in Rhuddlan was consulted at the time. If that had been done perhaps some better use could have been made of the material. If they wanted to preserve the bridge the County Council's action should be prompt, as it would save greater expense. Other speakers followed in the same strain, Mr John Jones remarking that the recent floods and consequent strong currents had done much to weaken the foundation of the centre pillar. It was proposed by Mr Enyon, seconded by the Vicar, and passed that another letter on the same subject be sent to the County Council Poor Relief Administration. The Vicar called attention to several apparent inconsistencies in the list of those leceiving parish relief in Rhuddlan. Although this subject had nothing to do with the pro- ceedings of the Parish Council, that meeting was a gathering of ratepayers, and as some of the Guardians for the parish were present, an explanation from them would be useful. He gave them credit for close attention to duties, but if the figures which he quoted were correct, he was afraid they were not in possession of correct information, and had consequently erred. He should be willing himself, in conjunction with other ratepayers, to meet the Guardians and go over all cases. Mr R Morris did not object to the Vicar drawing attention to this matter. The power of the local Guardians was very limited. It was the whole Board that finally decided these amounts. Of course Mr Bell, Mr Thompson and himself, gave all the information they ^nuid. esDeciallv in regard to children who could support their parents. In those cases they had to be very careful, lest they should impose a burden which some were unable to carry. He would be glad himself of the assistance of a meeting as suggested by the Vicar. Mr Bell agreed with Mr Morris as to the danger of making mistakes. Still they were doing their best, and the Guardians would be clad of any assistance that would enable them to perform their duties better. AH those cases referred to were thoroughly gone into, but even the local Guardians and Relieving Officer were not always able to obtain correct uuoi mauon. With regard to the ability of sons to support their parents, that, as a rule, was discussed in private, as it was not advisable to let everthing out. Mr Morris said that they did their best in this respect, but if they were deceived by some sons regarding their ability to support their parents, he character.ised their conduct as unmanly and un-Christianlike. Helping their parents should be everyone's first duty. Why anyone in a position to do so refused to perform this duty was imcomprehensible. Mr John Jones considered that this want of correct information was due to the negligence of the Guardians themselves. If they visited the parishioners occasionally very few if any mistakes would be made in this respect. Mr Bell thought it unfair that this subject should have been introduced so suddenly. But he did not wish to blame the Vicar for bringing it forward. If proper notice had been given, they as Guardians would be pleased to go fully into these cases. With regard to the charge of negligence, the gentleman making that could not be aware of the continuous, almost daily attention which they had to give to questions brought before them. He could not agree to the suggestion that they should visit all paupers. They certainly did pay visits, but made no noise about it, and did not, like some people, make those visits in order to criticise the actions of different bodies.—The subject then dropped. Highway Expenditure. The Vicar mentioned the heavy expenses ncurred by the District Council in the main- tenance of high ways, and failed to see where the extra benefit came in to cause such an increase in the expenditure, as compared with what it was a few years ago. They as rate- payers were in the dark as to many schemes embarked upon, but they had to pay for them. He mentioned the footpath along the high road to Rhyl, and said that he knew nothing as to how that was brought about, until he saw it one day, when it appeared to him as suddenly as if it had come down trom the skies. A Ratepayer Or sprung up from some- where else. The Vicar said it was time the Council should commence to economise, as the expendi- ture seemed to be on the increase. Mr W Jones explained that the footpath referred to was made at the request of the Parish Council. Mr Bell agreed that it was done at the request of the Parish Council, but it was not the footpath asked for. It was a source of danger in some places for vehicles. Mr W Jones But the footpath is for pedestrians, and they have a prior right to the road. Mr Bell agreed that the expenses were heavy, but the state of roads here and there necessitated the expenditure, and instanced Dyserth Road, which had been in a bad state. Several speakeis followed, and all agreed that several roads in the district should be mained by the County Council. An Abandoned Hospital Scheme. Mr John Jones asked for information from the District Councillors respecting the building recently acquired by th* Rural District Council for the purposes of an isolation hospital, and since done away with. He had been told that they had not conformed with the Local Government Board's regulations, and that the residents in the neighbourhood had petitioned against it, and consequently it had to bo done away with. If that was an instance of the care- less manner in which the ratepayers' money was spent, they should be carefully watched. Mr Bell said Mr Jones had been mis- informed on this as on several other occasions, and explained that the building was bought with the approval of the Medical Officer of Health, and if it had not been for the County Council breaking faith with the District Council they would still have been in posses- sion of it. The County Council had promised a moiety of the cost, but had backed out of it. The site was a suitable one in every way, and the complaints of the residents in the neigh- bourhood had no influence on the Council. A vote of thanks to the Chairman terminated the proceedings.

At Anfield on Monday Liverpool beat Derby County in a League football match by three goals to one. The international trial match at Glasgow, Home Scots v. Anglo-Scot-, ended in favour of the home side by four goals to one. Notes by Observer. Last Saturday Rhyl enthusiasts had an oppor- tunity for once of posing as impartial witnesses of a football match, the Grange Road ground being that day the scene of one of the semi-final encounters for the Welsh Amateur Cup. The rival teams were Flint U.A.C. and Bangor Reserves, each of which had a strong following of supporters. The match was of the typical junior cup tie order, and full of uncertainty until the very last kick, as will be seen from the result. Bangor won the toss, and, with a strong breeze in their favour, scored within five minutes of the commencement of operations. Flint made good progress against the wind, but their shooting was very inaccurate, the consequence being t,hat they soon found themselves defending again. One of the Flint backs was very lucky in clearing a fast shot, and a little later (after the referee, Mr Nunnerley, of Oswestry, had had occasion to caution some of the players) a Bangor forward brought the Flint custodian down full length with a lightning shot, which the prostrate custodian just succeeded in clearing, to the admiration of all. After another save by the same player Flint againt invaded the Bangor half, but a fine run was again spoilt by poor shooting, and half-time arrive 1 with the score Bangor 1, Flint U.A.C. 0. -if The wind, though not so strong as in the first half, was now in favour of Flint, who as soon as the game was restarted made a determined rush for the Bangor goal. Amidst the excitement one of the defending players-not the goalkeeper- fisted the ball out of goal, but from the ensuing penalty kick th ball completely missed the net. Directly after the Bangor goal experienced another very narrow escape, a free kick bringing the Flintshire men dangerously close to the upright., Flint obtained a couple of corners, following which the ball only just missed grazing the cross- bar. Bangor broke away, hut directly the Flint custodian had cleared t,he ball was back again at thp other end. Flint were now playiug very hard, and corner after corner, interspersed with goal kicks and throws-in, was their lot until ten minutes from time, when they were rewarded by an equalising goa'. Still pressing, Flint experienced the hardest of "hard lines." Their chances of gaining the had from a corner in the last minute were spoilt through the eagerness of a player in punohing the ball into the net. This rish act was really responsible for their defeat, for Bangor, who had only t'tnoe or twice during this half of the game crossed the midway line, broke away from the free kick and landed the lnll in the net, greatly to the relief and delight of the supporters of the Carnarvonshire club. Immedi- ately the ball had been returned to the centre of the field the referee announced that the game was at an end, the final being: Bangor Reserves 2, Flint U.A.C. 1. Rhyl v Nantwich. The result of the above match at Nantwich last Saturday must have greatly astonished the least sanguine of Rhyl's supporters. Well might it be said that Nantwich are just at present scoring goals galore, seeing that in two weeks they have obtained 17 goals. Saturday's victory over Rhyl by 8 goals to nil enabled them to move up to second plaae in the Combination table, as a glance at the following will show THE COMBINATION.

Prestatyn. Played at Abergele on Saturday last in wet weather, Prestatyn were without Haworth and played a substitute. Winning the toss, the visitors kicked down the slope with the wind in their favour. Abergele offered a stubborn defence, and it was not till the game had been in progress half an hour that Galliers scored with a fast drive." Thanks to a well placed corner, the ball was again safely put through, and before the interval J Parry scored No 3. Half-time: Prestatyn 3 goals, Royal Welsh nil. The home forwards were soon pressing on the restart, but J Williams and Galliers cleared their lines in effective style, being ably assisted by their halves, of whom E Roberts was the pick. J Linnell cleared good shots from W Jones and M Jones in succession. The visiting forwards now made pro- gress on the right but without avail, and the homesters who were soon again on the warpath, opened their scoring after some nice forward play. Shortly after this Abergele added a second, which was quickly followed by an equalizer from the head of E Mostyn, about five minutes from time. The Prestatynites now woke up, and a desperate eifort ) ended in A Parry banging the ball through, the greasy sphere slipping out of the grasp of the goal- keeper. Thus Prestatyn won a very even game by 4 goals to 3. To the muddy state of the ground must be attributed many of the inaccuracies of which the players were guilty,
