Hospital for Upper Rhondda. Another meeting of the Upper Rhondda VYorkmens' Lodge was held at the Griffin Hotel on Wednesday. The decision arrived at was to make the whole matter as public as possible during the next month. Each lodge is to do its best to obtain support in its own district, so that the first public meeting at the Assembly Rooms, Pentre, on April 21st, will be as representative as possible of the whole population of Upper Rhondda. The cost of circularising and billposting for the meeting will be defrayed by Mr Tom Evans, D.C., Penygraig, a gentle- man who has shown great interest in the movement from the commencement. We hope that other local gentlemen of in- fluence and wealth will give their moral and financial support to such a deserving cause.
