Treorchy. The anniversary services of Tabernacle (English Wesleyan) Chapel were concluded on Sunday last, when an excellent pro- gramme was again submitted in the pre- sence of large gatherings. On Monday, the annual tea was held, after which the children and adults paraded the principal streets of Treorchy, headed by the Taber- nacle and Town Brass Band. Later in the day, games were indulged in at the New Athletic Grounds, and fruit and con- fections were distributed among the chil- dren. The event was a huge success. The Misses James and Pugh's social tea came off splendidly at St. Matthew's Church Hall on Monday evening, when a company numbering one hundred sat to an excellent spread, followed by games. The hall was lavishly decorated. Noddfa Young Men's Mutual Improve- ment Society" tripped" to Weston and Cheddar on Monday, and spent an enjoy- able day. --+-- St. Matthew's Sunday School also went to Aberavon on Monday, magnificent weather favouring their holiday.

Pentre, It is seldom that one has to chronicle the deaths of three neighbours, who died within a few hours of each other, and who were also members of the same church. This happened last week at Pentre, in the persons of Mr. Wm. Llewellyn, 28 Queen Street; Miss Edwards, 37, Queen Street, and Mrs. Thomas, 49, Queen Street, all being long and faithful members at Nazareth Church. The funerals of the two de- ceased ladies took place on Tuesday at Treorchy Cemetery, the Revs. D. Davies (Nazareth) and T. Davies, Treorchy, officiating. The funeral of Mr. Llewellyn took place on the following day, the Rev. D. D.vieSl again officiating. The Rev. Oribner Llewellyn, B.A., who was ordained pastor of a church at Johns- town, Pa. (U.S.A.), last year, is a son of the latter, and is now on his way home. The greatest sympathy is ex- tended towards the bereaved relatives. The arrangements in connection with Mrs. Thomas's funeral were carried out by Messrs. Howell Williams and Sons, Ystrad. About fifteen or sixteen members of the Pentre Higher Grade Past Students' Association assembled near the Ton Library last Thursday evening for a' ten-mile 'ramble on the mountains. The guide chosen was Mr. W. D. Thomas, B.A., of Clydach Vale. The ramblers left the main road near St. David's Church, Ton, and an old well worn path to the mountain top was followed. Having reached the summit, the party travelled southwards over Mynydd y Bwllfa, until an excellent view of Gla-

Cardiff Empire. Tom Edwards, the premier ventriloquist, appears at Cardiff Empire nest week. Those famous musical comedians, Alex- andre and Hughes, are on the same bill. It would, indeed, be a very difficult matter to find a better pair of comedians whose cleverness on various instruments plea- santly varies their laughable "patter." An important engagement is that of 0 Hana San and her company. She offers a Japanese act, entitled" The Geisha's Dream." It is one that defies description, being a succession of beauti- ful scenes from old Japan, with prefty girls in Japanese robes dancing strange measures, while soft lights in myriad colours play upon them, the whole making a vision of loveliness undescribably attrac- tive. Brown and Le Clerq. of 1 Black Justice" fame, will have some fresh cases to try next week. Other artistes secured to make up an attractive pro- gramme include Johnson and Bert, Dot Stephens, Soho Trio. Takio and the charming vocalist, Carlotta Levey.

Cwmparc. Park Hall was the scene of an interest- ing and educative debate on Saturday evening last, when the pros and cons of a purely Labour College, as contrasted with the present Ruskin College, were discussed by Mr. T. Mardy Jones and Mr. Tom Evans, Cwmparc. The dis- missal of Principal Hird has given rise to much contention amongst the students of Ruskin College, who maintain that the present institution has very danger- ous leanings towards the university, and that university education in the social sciences, owing to its conservatism and aristocratic bias, is not only useless, but positively harmful to the progress of the Labour movement. Most of the Welsh ex-studei-its favour the abandonment of the College, and agitate for the establish- ment of a purely Labour college on demo- cratic lines. Among the Welsh dissenti- ents to this proposal is Mr. T. Mardy J ones, and to him lias been left almost entirely the defence of Ruskin College in South Wales. Bethel Sunday School took its annual seaside trip on Saturday last, the venue 'being Penarth. Rude Boreas was in terrific form in the early hours of the morning, and slashed the neighbouring hills with forbidding showers; but Cwm- parc excursionists are not easily dismayed and the train left Treorchy Station with a happy and determined, if somewhat bedraggled, load. King Sol received them with beaming smiles at their destination, so that, after all, a pleasant day was spent, and the labours and worries of Mr. Jas. Brown (junior), the secretary, were not in vain. At the general meeting, of Park and Dare colliers, held at Park Hall on Satur- day evening last, the new working hours -6 a.m. to 2 p.m.—were annroved of, but the new departure caused some tribulation in the breasts of a few of the adults. Local athletes, with a view to -the near approach of the football season, were well pleased, and another advan- tage accruing: will be the improved facili- ties for attending funerals. In effect, said one critic, the new time" is only put- ting into effect the proposed Daylight Saving Bill." But, should not stop-tap 'be at 10 o'clock? c The Institute Committee are at pre- sent reviewing the contents of the Library bookshelves, and would be glad to receive, through Mr. Lewis Oliver, any suggestion for additions or improvements.

I Treherbert. A public tea party was given at Garmel (W.O.) Chapel on Thursday, the proceeds of which were in aid of the chapel funds. Mr. J. Burgess, of Bradford, delivered a lecture on Friday evening under the auspices of the local I.L.P., his subject being "Lessons of the Coal Crisis." The lecture should have been delivered on the Bute Square, but owing to the tempestuous weather the meeting was conducted in the Boys' School. There was a fairly good attendance. At and in connection with, the All Saints' Church, an organ recital was .given on Thursday evening last by Mr. David Jones, organist at St. Peter's 'Church, Pentre. The Rev. J. D. Evans (vicar) occupied the chair. The following "were the artistes: —Sopranos, Miss May Moses (Treherbert) and Madame Thomas '(Treorchy.); contraltos. Misses Marie Cfese and A. Clarke (Treherbert); tenor, Mr. Ben Thomas (Treherbert); bass, Mr. C. E. Barker (Treherbert). In the absence of Miss Violet Davies, soprano (Port Talbot), on account of throat affection, her place was capably filled by Madam A. Bell (Treherbert). In the absence of Miss Katie Thomas, A.L.G.M., accom- panist, Mr. David Jones officiated. A fatal accident occurred at the Tydraw Collieries last week, when John Lloyd, aged 54 years, was killed by a fall of .:debris. The inquest was held at the local Police Station on Friday last, and a verdict of Accidental Death" was returned. Deceased resided at 3, Wynd- ham Street, but his wife and four chil- dren live in London. The funeral took place on Saturday, the body being, interred at the Treorchy Cemetery, where the Jtev. T. Jones, Treorchy, officiated. The Sunday School anniversary services of the Wesleyan Chapel were held on Sunday. Solos, recitations, duets, &c., were rendered by the Sunday School scholars, and in addition to this, part- songs and anthems were creditably ren- dered by the chapel choir. The anniver- sary will be continued next Sunday. On Monday the annual outing was taken, an excellent day being spent in glorious weather at Penarth. Similarly it may be said of the annual trips of both Eibenezer '(W.O.) and Horeb (C.M.) Chapels,. The outing of the former was spent at Porth- cawl, and that of the latter at Barry Island.

Ogmore Vale. Tradesmen's Outing.—The Ogmore tradesmen's outing took place on Wednes- day last, the rendezvous being Weston- super-Mare. The weather was delight- ful, and a most pleasant time was spent by the 130 enthusiasts who made the journey. The arrangements were carried, out by Messrs. D. J. Evans (secretary), Percy Slocombe, Geo. Morgan, and Michael Davies (treasurer). Marathon.—The first prize- for the Marathon in connection with the fete of the Juvenile Choir on July 28th has been augmented to £ 1. Demonstration.—The annual demonstra- tion of the Ogmore Valley. miners took place at Blackmill on Monday last. The weather was all that could be desired and large numbers of men formed the pro- cession, which was headed by the Nanty- moel Temperance Band. The large gathering was addressed on current coal- field topics by Mr. Stephen Walsh, M.P., Mr. C. B. Stanton, Aberdare, Mr. Tom Lucas, and the Rev. J. Nicholas, Tony- pan dy (in Welsh). The president was Mr. Wm. Brace, Nantymoel. Bicycle Accident.—Mr. Tom James, son of Mr. Wm. James, of Meadow Street, Ogmore Vale, met with a nasty bicycle accident on Saturday last. He was riding down the Llanharran hill, and in avoiding a collision with a cyclist coming, in the opposite direction, was thrown head fore- most into the bridge. The bicycle was wrecked and the rider was stunned. He was taken to a. neighbouring house, and was attended by Dr. W. B. Jones. Later in the evening the unfortunate lad came round, and was removed to his home, and is now progressing favourably. Presentation.—A farewell tea was held at Bethel (P.M.) Church on Saturday night last to honour the departure of their minister, the Rev. H. Tracey. Mr. Tracey has carried out pastoral duties at the above church for the past three years and has been eminently successful in his sphere of labour. A large number of friends sat down to tea, and afterwards a presentation meeting was held, when several friends, including the Rev. T. Simpson, of Wesley Church, eulogised the good work of Mr. Tracey. The presen- tation took the form of a purse of money subscribed for by the members of the church. The presentation was made in a fitting speech by Mr. Burridge, the oldest member present. Afterwards Mr. Tracey suitably responded. Mr. Tracey intends taking up his former profession, that of a journalist.

Nantymoel Mining Successes.—Messrs. John R. Williams, 4, Glanafon Terrace, and John P. Edwards, 48, Vale View, have satis- factorily passed their examination for a Second Class Certificate of Competency as Under-Managers of a mine. Both were students of the class at Nantymoel Boys' School, conducted by Mr. W. T. Jones, under-manager of the Wyndham Collieries. --+-- Success.—The many friends of Mr. Willie Jenkins, son of Mr. J. H. Jenkins, Aelybryn, Nantymoel, will be pleaded to learn of his success in the recent Mining Examination conducted by the Home Office. Mr. Jenkins has obtained his First Class Manager's Certificate at the early ag61 of 23—a highly creditable achieve- ment. He is at present engaged as a surveyor under the Ocean Company. D.

morganshire was obtained from Cefn Mawr, including portions of Rhondda Valley, Ely Valley, and the Ogmore or Og;wr Valley. The return journey was made along Mynydd-pwll-yr-hebog to Tonypandy, and a visit was paid to a sulphur spring near Cefnbach. Tony- pandy was reached about half-past nine, the return to Pentre being; accomplished. The ramble proved extremely enjoyable, and the guide was heartily "thanked for his services. The annual Sunday School anniversary of Zion Church, Pentre, was held on Sunday last, the services including special addresses, choruses, songs, and recita- tions. On Sunday evening two special recitations were given by Miss Gwladys Davies, and her renderings of "-The Old Armchair" and The Drunkard's Life" will long be remembered. Mr. W. Carey, watchmaker, died last week at Llwynypia. Mr. Carey was one of those people who live far from the public view, but was much respected by his intimate acquaintances. It is our pleasure to congratulate Mr. Gwilym Isaac, son of Mr. W. Isaac, butcher, upon his becoming pastor of Oefnmawr English Baptist 'Church, near Ruabon, in North Wales. Mr. Isaac, who is only 26 years of age, spent a few years at Pontypridd Collegiate School and Carmarthen Old College before pro- ceeding to Rawton College, Leeds, where he won a scholarship for four years. Some time before the expiration of his period of training, he received an unanimous call from the above church, which was accepted upon the under- standillg, that the Church would allow him to finish his training. The ordina- tion will take place in September next. We also congratulate Mr. Edgar Evans, Ystrad Road, who has succeeded in obtaining his B.Sc. degree after a period of three years at Aberystwyth, and Mr. Evan Davies, son of Mr. Davies, M.E., Gelli, upon his attaining the B.A. degree in the same period. The annual outing of Siloh Sunday School at Penarth was favoured with ex- cellent weather on Monday. Following the arrival at Penarth, the children, to the number of over 200, were supplied with a substantial meal at the Grotsvenor Restaurant, and were afterwards at liberty to enjoy themselves in the parks, along the beach, and Lavernock walk. Tea. was again provided in the afternoon, and the return journey was made about 7.30, arriving at Ystrad about 8.30 p.m., after a most enjoyable time. The annual excursion of the Salvation I Army took place on Monday-, the chosen place being Barry Island. The day was enjoyed by all, the warm sun being very i welcome after the cold of Saturday and Sunday. The return to Ystrad was made fairly early, reaching Ystrad about 9 p.m. [ The departure of Mr. J. R. Newall, Wesleyan minister, is much regretted, more especially because it is due to ill- health. During his stay of about twelve months at Pentre, Mr. Newall has earned the respect and good feeling of a large number of persons outside the Wesleyan Church, and all will extend to I him their sympathy and regrets, whilst also wishing him a complete recovery in his new sphere at Milford, Pembroke- shire. Mr. Newall will be succeeded by Mr. W. J. Britton, of the Llanelly and Carmarthen Circuit, who will commence duties in September.
