Hwiit ac; "f ITI-TL. [Gan Tki i hi» h J 1 Yr wythnos hon eto y mae genym y gorchwyl pruddaidd o gulnodi marwolaet-") ddieymwth ein cyfaill hen WILLIAM THOMAS, SOAR, GYNT LDISGW YjuFA, yn 71 mlwydd ced. Yr oedd ef yn farch- nattawr anifeiliaid ar raddeg eang, yn en- wedig ceflylau, ac ystyrid ef yn y dosbarth blaenaf fel barnwr ar y cytryw. Adna- byddid ef a'i frodyr fel bechgyn y gwair, a deibyniasatit yr etiieddiaeth hon oddiwrth yr hen foneddwr eu tad, yr hwn a elwid "Mor- al1 y Gwair," am y rheswm ei fod yn y blynyddoedd o'r blaen wedi gyrhaedd enwog- rwydd wrth fasnachu yn y nwydd hwnw. Disgynodd ysbryd eu tad yn helaeth ar y beeh.gvn oli; nid gwiw meddwl iddynt aros ar hyd y dydd yn segur, bechgyn y prynu a'r gwerthu oeddynt o'r coryn hyd y earn; ond cawn hwynt yn disgyn i ddistawrwyddy bedd un ar ol llall; John wedi gadael Pare Lodge, Llansadwrn, er ys blynyddoedd bell- ach: Thomas yntau wedi ffarwelio am byth a ffermdy y "Gore," ger Salem, lie y bu yn hynod boblogaidd am flynyddau, ac wedi treulio yr un llwybr; i beidio dychwelyd mwy y cawn William erbyn heddyw; David yn aros yn Soar, a Daniel yn fferm y Llethr- mawr, ger Taliares, a Mary mewn masnach- aeth yn Brynamman. Cymerodd angladd ein cyfaill le yr wythnos ddiweddaf. Cyn cychwyn o'r ty gwasanaethwyd gan y Parchn. Thomas, Siloh, Penybanc, a Harries, gweinidog dyfodol Cwmdu. Yna cymerwyd y corff i gyfeiriad mynyient yr eglwys yn Talyllychau, pryd y gwasanaethwyd gan y Parch. John P. Price, ficer, a'r Parch. Mr. Harries, Cwmdu. Y mae sydynrwydd ymad- awiad ein cyfaill wedi achosi pryder dwys trwy yr holl ddQsbarth." Pan wedi bod yn brysur ddilyn ei alwedigaeth, tarawyd ef yn glaf ar ei ffordd adref; cymerwyd ef i weetty y White Hart, lie y cafodd ei ymgeleddu yn y modd goreu gan Mr. a Mrs. Hughes; ond nid oedd adferiad i'n cyfaill; yr oedd gaf- aelion sicr brenin braw wedi ymafiyd ynddo; ac er pub cymhorth meddygol, yn fuan wedi cyrhaedd gartref, rhoddodd ein oyfailllam o fyd o amser i'r byd mawr tragwyddol, gan adael mewn galar ar ei ol weddw a chwech o blant, un o'r bechgyn yn dilyn ei ddyled- swydd gyda y fyddin yn Ffrainc. Yr oedd ei boblogrwydd yn Rmlwg ddydd y cynheb- rwn.g, tua 60 o gerbydau a 18 ar geffylau. Bydded aden dyner lor tros y galarwyr oil, a huned einAyfaill y dawel hun hyd foreu j mawr yr uniad cyffredinol CYDYMDEIMLAD. Rhaid yw dywedyd am y glowr dewr- galon ei fod yn feddianol ar y cydymdeimlad goreu, fel y prawf y weithred ganlynol, yr lion nid yw ond un o'r lluaws mawr yn ei hanes. Ymddengys i'r cerddor gwych ac adnabyddus, W. Phillips, o'r Felinwen, yr hwn oedd yn un o'r tanwyr yn Iota yr Emlyn, Penygroes, i gael ei gymeryd yn giaf, a phrofodd ei glefyd mor llym/ fel y bu farw mewn ychydig ddyddiau. Teimlodd yr holl lofa ar unwaith, fel y derbyniodd Mrs. Philllpg a ganlyn oddiwrth yr ysgrifenydd caredig. Gosodwn ef yma fel yr ysgrifen- wyd ef, gan hyderu y bydd yn wers i lawer i wybod beth yw cydymdeimlad sylweddol. Ni wyr y tan-ddaearolion hyn ddim am yr ymadrodd, "Ewch mewn heddwch, ymdwyn- wch ao ymddigonwch," &c. Nid y siarad, ond y weithred sydd yn dangos eii llwyr gydym- deimlad hwy. Wele'r "prawf:—"Dear Mrs. Phillips,—'Enclosed please find the sum of L8 8s., being collection by Emlyn workmen as a tribute of respect to you, re the death of your husband.—Yours faithfully, Evan Davies, Arosfa, Gorsddu, Penygroes." Cyd- nabyddwyd y rhodd a'r teimlad da gan y derbynydd. "Thanks very much indeed for the money received this morning. I really cannot express my feelings in words how I appreciate what you have done for me, and ) I wish you to convey my thanks to all the subscribers for their great kindness. Again thanking you enr and all, yours sincerely, Sarah Phillips." Maddeuer i ni am dros- eddu ar eich gofod; em ramcari yw rhoddi gwere i ereill i gofio am y gweithiwr, ac y ovdd yr hanes uchod yn dwyn ar gof iddynt y gwirionedd hwnw, Dos, u. gwna dithau yr un modd." Y LLWYNOG. Canfu llygad eryraidd Mr. George Barnes, prif geidwad helwriaeth Dynefwr, dydd Mercher diweddaf, ar ganol maee eang yn ymyl yr afon Tywi, mewn ysmottyn hollol anhebyg, ffau y llwynog cyfrwys. Danfonodd ar unwaith am gynorthwy Mr. Joseph Jessop, Tregeybe, ac nid hir y buwyd cyn cyrbaedd ystafelloedd prydferth y drivg- weithredwyr. Aed heibio yr vstafell giniaw, a phan gyrhaeddwyd yr ystafell eistedd (sit- ting-room), yno yr oedd tri boneddwr yn mwynhau eu hunain, ond aflonyddwyd y gweilch, a. chan fod cwynion yn eu herbyn, a'u tyst-lythyrau mor wael, calodd y tri ddioddef cosp eithaf y gyfraith, heb gym- horth na barnwr na rheithwvr, na neb o gyfrwys awyddogion y gyfraith. Gan mai Saia yw Mr. Barnes, arferodd ef y 'lynch law." Mae perohenoglon dofednod y cylch yn ddiolchgar i Mr. Barnes am y weithred ganmoLadwy hon,

AGRICULTURE AND RECRUITING.- IMPORTANT DECISION. The Board of Agriculture announce that an arrangement has been made with the Ministry of National Service and the War Office for a definite number of 10,000 Grade 1 men to be made available from agricul- ture for Military Service not later than 33th June. It is hoped that the large majority of these men will be 'recruited under the Proclamation of 19th April, 1918, calling up men born in the yeara 1895-1399, but if the full number of men is not obtained under this Proclamation it will be necessary to obtain the remainder from men up to 31 years of age. It is ex- pected that additional labour, including a largio number of prisoners of wasr, will be f made available for agriculture, to take the place of the men urgently required for im- mediate Military Service.

FFRAE Y BEIRDD. ATEB I'R GOL. A GOFYNIAD I TWM 'BARELS." [At Olygydd y Carmarthen JOURNAL.] Syr,—(1) A all "Twm -'Barels" brofi mai nid gwaith Amanwy oedd marwnad fudd- ujiol y Tumble i Syr Stafford Howard? Os y medr wneyd hyny, carem iddo wneyd, gan fy mod yn un o gyfeillion y bardd, ac yn llawenhau yn wastad yn ei lwyddiant. Os ydyw Amanwy wedi lladrata y farwnad hon, neu ran o honi, yr wyf wedi fy siomi yn fawr ynddo. (2) Medraf ddweyd, er na fum yn siarad a'r bardd yn ddiweddar, nad mar- wnad fenthyg oedd. gan Amanwy yn y Tumble, a rhoddaf her i "Twm 'Barels" neu i'r Gol., neu unrhyw un arall,*i brofi hyny. Yr wyf fi a partner arall i "Amanwy" yn barod i roddi y swm o £10 iddynt os y medrant ddangos unrhyw gyffelybiaeth sydd rhwng y ddwy bryddest. (3) Pa f9dd y gall "Twm 'Barels" gondemmo Amanwy, ac yntau heb weled un o'r ddwy bryddest? Yr ydym yn synvi at Twm, pwy bynag yw, ei fod yn dweyd pethau heb ddim sail na syl- wedd iddynt. (4) "Gwasgu am atebiad pen- dant." Carem wybod pa reswm sydd gan y Gol. dros wasgu am atebiad pendant? Gwyddom eich bod yn abl i farnu drosoch eich hun, neu dylasech fod, a chwithau yn olygydd papyr cyn eanged ei gylchrediad a'r "Journal." Dim ond help i wneyd ei bryddest gyntaf gafodd Amanwy," a gwyr pawb ei fod erbyn hyn nid yn unig yn medru carlamu ar waethaf "Twm 'Barels" a'i ys- grifau difudd. Carem i chwi, Mr. Gol., beidio gwneyd sylw o ohebwyr disail fel Twm, y rhai syad yn dweyd pethau heb ronyn o sylfaen iddynt. Yr ydym yn gwasgu am atebiad y Gol., ac am sail sydd gan ohebwyr fel Twm 'Barels dros eu hymosod- iadau ar fardd mor ddiniwed ag Amanwy.— Yr eiddoch, &c., J. J'ONES. [Nid ydym yn chwennych deg punt J. Jones a "partner arall. Amanwy." Carem l J. Jones ddeall mai nid dyna ddull newvdd- iadurwyr o gario eu gwaith ymlaen. Paham na rydd "Amanwy" ei hun, neu un o'i "bartners," atebiad boddhagl, os mai efe, ac efe yn unig, yw awdwr Ir I-DII o bryddest y Tumble? Gwybydded J. Jones hefyd ein bod wedi eistedd cyhyd yn y gadair olyg- yddol fel nad oes arnom angen cyfarwydd- iadau J. Jones nac unrhyw "bartner" iddo, parthed ein hymddygiad tuag at ein goheb- wyr cyson. Gadawn i Twm ei hun ddatgan ei farn ar yr uchod. Yr unig reswm sydd genym aros wasgu am atebiad pendant ydyw, er mwyn dinoethi ffug-fcirdd, a chal- onogi y rhai gwir. Gresyn o beth fod eis- teddfod y Cymro yn dirywio fel y mae, ac os na wna caredigion yr hen iaith ei diogelu mcwn pryd, gore po gyntaf y syrth i'w bedd. -Y GOL.] ———

LLANWENOG. Gorchwyl pruddaidd sydd genym y tro hwn o groniclo marwolaeth yr henafgwr a'r cyfaill diddan a chywir, Mr. Joshua Thomas, Tycam, yn yr oedran teg t> 93 mlwydd oed. Efe oedd yr henaf oedd yn byw yn y plwyf yn breisenol; a chwith iawn fydd gan gylch eang o gyfeillion, a gwag iawn fydd Bro Gwenog, ao yn enwedig aelwyd glyd Tycam heb Joshua Thomas. Yr oedd yn gymeriad hynod ddifyr a chyfeillgar, ac yn un a hoffid gan bawb a'i hadwainai. Yr oedd yn meddu yspryd llawen a difyr, ac hyd y flwyddvn ddiweddaf ymddangosai yn llawer ieueng- ach nag yr oedd. Bu fyw yn Tycam o ddydd ei enedigaeth hyd ei farwolaeth, ac yr oedd ganddo gof da am hen gymeriadau a digwydd- iadau y ganrif ddiweddaf, ac elai llawer o hynofiaethwyr ato i gasglu gwybodaeth ynghylch y rhain. Yr oedd hefyd wedi ei freintio yn helaeth a'r dalent gerddorol, a chymerodd ran flaenllaw yng nghaniadaeth y cyssegr yn ei ddydd. Y mffrostiai yn ami ei fod wedi cymeryd rhan yn y gan yn Eglwrvs Llanwenog am 70 mlynedd. Parhaodd ei la is yn beraidd tuhwnt hyd o fewn yr ych- ydig fisoedd diweddaf. Ei hoff waith oedd canu yr hen ganeuon ac alawon Cymreig, ac yn ami y swynodd lawer cynnulleidfa gyda y rhai hyn. Codwr oanu digyffelyb oedd Joshua Thomas yn ei ddydd, a phleser mewn llawer i angladd oedd ei glywed yn arwain y gan-yr hen donau Cymreig bob amser, a hyny gyda bias. Ond Och! wele ei lais wedi distewi yn yr angau, ond hyderwn ei fod yn parhau i ganu gyda'r cor nefol hyd oesoedd diderfyn "Iddo Ef yr Hwn a'n golchodd, etc. Bu yn aelod ffyddlon a dilychwin yn Eglwys Llanwenog ar hyd ei oes faith, a mynychai y gwasanaethau yn gyson tra yr oedd iechyd yn parhau. Bu yn churchwar- den am iflynyddoedd maith, a chofiai am lawer o offeiriaid fu yn gwasanaethu yn y plwyf. Ni chafodd ei gaethiwo i'r ty ond am ychydig amser, a hunodd yn dawel yn yr angau prydnawn Llun, Mai 6fed, a chladd- wyd ei weddillion marwol yn meddrod ei anwyl briod (yr hon oedd wedi ei ragflaenu os rhai blynyddoedd) yn mynwent Eglwys Llan- wenog prydnawn Gwener canlynol, pan yr 's'o oedd y cor asgelIog yn pcrleisio yn y coed fel pe baent yn rhoddi ffarwel i'r hwn "a ganodd gymaint yn ystod ei fywyd yma. Daeth tyrfa luosog i dalu y gymwynas olaf iddo, ac yr oedd yn eglur fod cymeriad hynod ao anwyl yn cael ei hebrwng i dy ei hir gartref. Gwasanaethwyd yn Tycam gan y Parch. J. Morris, M.A., ficer, yr hwn hefyd a ddar- llenodd yr adnodau arweiniol i'r Eglwys. Darllenwyd y salm a'r bennod gladdu gan y Parch. D. Evans, Werndewi Lodge, Llan- bedr, hen gyfaill mynwesol i'r ymadawedig, a rhoddwyd yr emynau allan gan y Parch. J. Pugh, curad Llanwenog a Llanybydder. Pregethwyd gan y Parch. J. Morris oddiar Pregethwr xii. Chwareuwyd yr organ «an y Milwriad H. Davies-Evans, Highmead, yr hwn hefyd a chwareuodd y. "Dead March" pan yr oedd y gynulleidfa yn myned allan. Cymerwyd y gwasanaeth ar lan y bedd gan y Ficer, a chyri rhoddi ffarwel i weddillion ein hen gyfaill anwyl, canwyd gyda theimladau dwys a drylliedig ei hoff us emyn, "O fryniau Caersalem." Cydymdeimlir yn ddwfn a'i blant, sef Miss M. Thomas, yr hon fu yn hynod ofalus yn ei gweinyddiad ar ei hanwyl dad ar hyd y blynyddoedd diweddaf; Parch. T. Thomas; cutad hynaf Llanelli; Parch. D. Thomas, curad, Glanogwen, Gogledd Cymru; Mr. Joshua Thomas (ieuanc), Ty- cam; Mr. John Thomas, Rhiwsonganol, a'r perthynasau eraill i gyd, a nerth gaffont i ymdawelu, gan gofio fod yr hen dad gofalus a charuaidd wedi myned adref at ei wobr. Danfonwvd plethdorchau gan y rhai canlynol: —Colonel a Mrs. Davies-Evans, Highmead; croes oddiwrth y teulu; Mr. a Mrs. Thomas, Rhiwson-ganol; Mr. a Mrs. Evans, Caellan; teulu School House, Llanwenog; Mr. a Mrs. Roberts, Tynyporth; Mr. a Mrs. Cheverton, Lax Lodge; Miss M. Thomas, Parky- clochydd.—(J. W. Jones). Dydd Iau, Mai 9fed, claddwyd gweddillion marwol Miss Hannah Griffiths, oedd gynt yn byw yn Greenhill, Drefach. Dioddefodd gystudd caled a maith. Aeth tyrfa luosog o Drefach a Llanwenog i dalu y gymwynas olaf iddi, ac i osod ei gweddillion marwol yn mynwent Rhydybont, Llanybythe, pryd y gwasanaethwyd gan y Parch. D. James, gweinidog. Cydymdeimlir a'r perthynasau oil yn eu galar.

Col. George Phillips WEST WALES VETERAN OF THE CRIMEAN WAR. The death took place on Friday last in a London nursing home of a distinguished Welsh officer in the person of Col. George Phillips, until recently of Cynghordy Hall, Llanfair-y-Bryn, Llandovery. Col. Phillips, who was 81 years of age, was a member of a prominent West Wales family. He ob- tained his first commission in 1856, and be- coming attached to the 4th Hussars, took a prominelit part in the Crimean War, serving at one time as adjutant-general to Lord Wolseley. He continued his association with the late Earl of Lisburne, and managed the properties during- the minority of the pre- sent peer. He did not take any leading part in public life, but was much attached to sport and was passionately fond of horse racing, keeping several steeplechasers in his day. His first wife was* a relative of the Marquess of Queensbery, and his second wife, who survives, is a daughter of the late Sir Patrick MacCombaich Colquhoun, Q.C., and widow of the late Sir William Redhouse, K.C.M.G. Last year Col. Phillips took up residence in London, and his family, Mr. George Phillips, Mr. James Phillips, and Miss Violet Phillips, went to reside at Currey Manor, Ll&ndilo.

Cardiganshire Appeal Tribunal Mr. John Jones, C'wmere, presided over a meeting of the above Appeal Tribunal held at the Town Hall, Lampeter, on Wednesday, the 8th inst.—A large number of cases were on for hearing, but the majority came within the new Act, and the Tribunal had no option but to dismiss the men's appeals.— Oliver Watkin Davies, Glandwr, Llangoed- more, gardener, had been granted one month by the local tribunal, and to work on a farm in the meantime.—Mr. Lloyd Lewis sub- mitted that this man was covered by a pro- tection certificate granted by the Agricul- tural War Committee because the man worked on a farm.—Mr. R. E. Jones, the National Service representative, contended that the Local Tribunal granted the one month on personal grounds. The ground of occupation was not touched.—Conditional exemption was granted, the Chairman inti- mating that Mr. Vaughan took no part in the hearing of the case.—Mr. W. J. Wil- liams, solicitor, Cardigan, appealed on be- half of Shadrach John Davies, Bryngwyn Farm, St. Dogmaels, farmer, &c. Condi- tional exemption was granted in this case by consent of the military, who were given to understand that appellant's brother had had joined the Flying Corps.—David Joseph Thomas, Lamb Inn, Cardigan, plumber in the employ of Messrs. Williams and Thomas, ironmongers, Cardigan, was given until June 8th.—A rather complicated case was that of Harry Watkin James, 15, William- terrace, Burry Port, -late of 8, David-street, St. Dogmaels, monumental mason. It ap- peared that appellant had been granted con- ditional exemption by the Cardiganshire Appeal Tribunal on the condition that he went to work in a munitions factory. Ac- cording to the N.S. Representative this man was released by the munitions works, but the Munitions Area Recruiting Office could not call up the man for military service be- cause he was covered bv this conditional exejnption granted by the Cardiganshire Tribunal.—The military appeal was allowed. —The military reviewed the exemption of Tom Williams, Emlyn Anns Hotel, New- castle-Emlyn, cowman. It appeared that the man left the Emlyn Arms Hotel about three years ago, and was now in the service of Dr. Tom Powell as chauffeur. A wire was received from Mr. D. T. George stating that Dr. Powell had an urgent case to attend to, and was unable to come, and asked that the case be adjourned. Leave was given him to appeal at the next meet- ing of the Tribunal.—Thomas Charles Davies, London House, Aberayron, draper and grocer, appeared before the Tribunal, and stated that his father had now no con- nection whatever with the business, and was unable to give any kind of assistance. Ap- pellant was personally responsible for the management of the whole of the business, which was, according to Mr. D. Pennant James, his legal advocate, one of the largest in Aberayron. He was granted two months. —Evan Rowlands, New Black Lion, Aber- ayron, butcher, had served 95 days in the Army, when he was discharged. He started a butcher's business afterreturning from the Army. He was granted three months. i —

Eczema All Over Head and Back ZAM-BUK RESCUES BABY FROM SAD PLIGHT. So grateful was Mrs. D. Smith, of Ivy. Cottage, Northwood, Allastone, Ashbourne, when Zam-Buk completely cured her baby's distressing scalp eczema, that she gladly related the circumstances to an Ashbourne Telegraph representative. "When two months old, my son David," said Mrs. Smith, started with a breaking- out on the top of his head. I have not the slightest idea what caused it, but very soon David's head, face, and back, was covered all over with little running eczema sores, which afterwards scabbed. I tried several ointments and oils, ptc., but all to no pur- pose. A doctor also attended baby for some time, but there was no improvement in the obstinate skin complaint. The poor child suffered so much pain that he could scarcely get any sleep at all at nights. Having read about Zam-Buk curing eczema, I bought a box from the chemist, and gently applied the balm to the itchy running sores. From the very first Zam-Buk brought relief. Instead of tossing about and crying, David was clearly easier after the Zam-Buk had been applied. The sores ceased to dis- charge and, under the influence of Zam-Buk, the scabs were softened and came away. "Zam-Buk subdued the fierv inflammation and David's head, face, and body became much better. I kept on with Zam-Buk, and presently noticed that the sores were healing quite nicely. This improvement was steadily maintained, until in a short time the little one's skin was as clear as it could possibly be. Not a sign of the eczema have I seen since then. I shall always speak highly of Zam-Buk, because it was that, and nothing else, that saved my little boy from a great deal of pain and his parents from much anxiety." Zam-Buk is also unequalled for Bad Legs, Ringworm, Itchy Spots and Rashes, Piles, Poisoned Sores, Boils, Abscesses, etc. The lads at the Front, too, find it a splendid stand-by to heal their wire cuts and trench sores. Don't forget to put a la. Id. box in your next parcel. All Chemists and Drug Stores sell Zam-Buk.

Fined £55 WOMAN FARMER PROSECUTED FOR FAILING TO PLOUGH ALLOTTED QUOTA. On Tuesday, 7th May, at Llansawel Petty Sessions, Mary Kate Evans, of Cilyblaidd, Pencarreg, was summoned for a breach of the Defence of the Realm Regulations Food Production Order, that she having been served with a notice to plough 30 additional acres did negligently and wilfully fail to plough the same.-Mr' J. W. Nicholas, clerk of the County Council, appeared to prose- cute, and stated that the farm contained 130 acres of which 107 was clear land suitable for ploughing. The. defendant had been served with a notice to plough an additional 30 acres which had afterwards been modified to 27 acres. She had, however, absolutely de- clined to comply with the order. Mr. Nicholas stated that her action amounted to defiance and he pressed for an exemplary penalty upon farmers who declined to carry out orders made for the purpose of increasing the country's food.—Mr. Daniel John, exe- cutive officer, stated that he had seen the defendant on more than one occasion, and had been unable to induce her to undertake the additional ploughing. She made various excuses including difficulties of labour, although he (Mr. John) pointed out to her that sne possessed a plough and a team of three horses. He had offered her every assistance including the use of a motor plough. He had visited the farm on the 7th instant, and found that no additional land had been ploughed.—Mr. Evan Davies, Bwlchcenrydwr, Llanybyther, cultivation officer, corroborated.—The defendant .gave evidence, and the decision of the Bench was conveyed by the Chairman (Mr. J. M. Davies, Froodvale), who stated that it was of the utmost importance in the interests of the country that cultivation orders should be strictly obeyed. The Bench considered it a bad case, and they fined the defendant £ 55.

CLERGY AND THE ARMY.

Lampeter County Court The bi-monthly County Court was held on Saturday before His Honour Judg-e Lkvci Morgan, K.C.—His Honour gave his !>id: ment in the case of John Davies, Bwich- mawr, against Rees LI. Evans, Gelli House, Llanybyther, which had been before the court on two previous occasions, and in which plaintiff claimed damages for breach of contract on the sale of potatoes to the defendant. His Honour said there had been a valid contract of sale. Defendant post- poned the delivery, and he was of opinion that plaintiff assented to the postponement. It was therefore plaintiff's duty to take reosonable care of the potatoes. Plaintiff had not done so. Defendant was then en- titled to counterclaim for this, so that plain- tiff would be only entitled to very small damages for the breach of contract. Defen- dant was not justified in sending to plaintiff to stop delivery of the potatoes on the ground that other potatoes had turned out bad. He ought to have gone to see them, bufc in any case he was not entitled to refuse tiiom. riamtitf ought to have sold the pota- toes after the refusal of them by defendant, and the damages for the breach of contract would be the difference between the market price and the price for which he had sold them to defendant. He would therefore give judgment for plaintiff for £ 1.—James lhs, of Bronwydd, Lampeter, sued David Davies, of Maesgwyn, Clynderwen, to re- cover F,3 8s. 9d., balance due for the price of tea sold. Defendant counter-claimed for £1 10s. 9d., being balance of money received by plaintiff on behalf of defendant. Al r. J. Emrys Jones, solicitor, Lampeter, appeared for plaintiff. Messrs. Lewis and James, Narberth, solicitors for defendant, wrote that their client was indisposed and asked tor an adjournment. Mr. Lmrys Jones said his client might be in the army before next court, as he had received a notice to go before the medical board that day. HA Honour decided to go on with the case, and ,gave judgment for plaintiff.—Charles Evans, Mark Lane Stores, Lampeter, sued David Davies, Weslev Cottage. Lampeter, to re- cover jE5 3s. 8d. Defendant's wife appeared and disputed certain items in the account. Mr. J. Emrys Jones appeared for plaintiff. Judgment was given for plaintiff.

BRITISH FARMERS' RED CROSS FUND. Sir,—Our last payment to the British Red Cross Society was JB20,000 for food erd clothing for British prisoners of war in enemy countries, which brings our oontribu- tion for this particular object up to £ 50,000. We are lIE. soon as possible sending a further 220,000, as the recent battles in the V est have added greatly to the numbers (f cur men who are captive. To make life in enemy prison camps bearable, the Red Cross has to provide large quantities of food and other parcels, through its Central Prisoners of War Committee. As relief for each in- dividual prisoner works out at something like J640 a year, it can readily be under- stood that the cost is enormous, and in the future will be more so. In order that the Farmers' Fund may continue these large contributions, and thus bring help and com- fort to the prisoners and wounded, it i6 necessary for repeat agricultural sales to be held whenever possible. 'Offers of organiza- tion in connection with these sales will be gratefully received by the Secretary, Room 5, Tower Bridge Flour Mills, Shad Thames, London, S.E.I.—Yours faithfully, W. G. WILLCOX, Secretary.

Teachers' Strike Continues CARMARTHENSHIRE DEADLOCK. The assistant teachers strike in the indus- trial area of Carmarthenshire, which has now been in progress for over a fortjnight, continues In most districts the attendance 'returns are fairly good, some schools even showing abnormal figures; but at schools in the Amman Valley abstentions have caused such a serious reduction that it has been suggested that those particular schools should he closed. At meetings of the local groups of managers held at Pembrey and Ammanford opinions were expressed that the matters in dispute should have been arbitrated upon. The children of Bettwa have paraded Am- manford with a banner bearing the legend, "Bettws true; we support our teachers." Writing on Wednesday our Ammanford correspondent says--The attendance of children is reported to he better this week in the Amman Valley schools. This has, of course, added to the difficulties of the head- teachers, who are, however, carrying on as beat they may under almost impossible con- ditions, as many as 400 children being under the charge of one head-teacher. An inspector of the Board of Education has 'visited the schools and made enquiries as to the conditions under which the work ia carried on. A public opea-air meeting was held at Pontyberem on Friday night, when speeches were delivered by local labour leaders. A resolution, moved by one of the audience, was passed pledging parents not to send their children to school after tne present week unless the dispute between the County Education Committee and the teachers was settled in a manner satisfac- tory to the teachers. The Schoolmaster say a: Carmarthen- shire has been notorious for its lack of sup- port for education. The expenditure out of rates in that county is lower than in any authority area in Wales, and in conse- quence the amount of supplementary grant was reduced by £ 6,000. The cleim of the te»ehers in the county has been on the same basis as the advances made to (he teachers under the Lla nelly Education Committee, another authority in the same county. The claim is reasonable and just, and, if granted in fun. ivill still leave the teachers under the county authority far behind the Llan- e!ly teachers grade for grade. STEPS TO SETTLE THE DISPUTE. Mr Tootfll, M.P., raised in the House of Commons on Wednesday night the ques- tion of the Carmarthenshire school strike. He was informed by the President of the Board of Education that the matter was receiving fi&reful attention and that stepe were being taken which, it wap hoped, might lead to a aettlement. ABERAYRON.

The winter work of the Ladies' Sewing Class which met weekly at The Cottage was brought to a cloee on Thursday, 2nd inst., with an excellent record of work done ni providing much-needed comforts for our sailors and soldiers. On the 9th inst. those who had diligently- attended the classes met together to partake of a cup of tea, under ration conditions, to review the work of the past session, and incidentally to make a de- serving recognition of the work of Mrs. Hoare, Bonville House, who since the in- auguration of the work three winters ago has rendered invaluable sen-ices in cutting out and arranging the material ready for making into different garments. Mrs. Hoare was presented with a lady's sewing companion subscribed for by a few members of the class as a small token of her services in the good work. Woollen material has been supplied by Ladv Owen Philipps tor scarves, a total of 103, a large number of which were knitted by the. schoolgirls. At least two pairs of socks were sent to all boys from the whole parish on land and sea, as far as their names could be ascertained. Twenty nightshirts were sent to the Red Cross Hospital; assorted parcels, including one parcel of helmets and mittens, were de- spatched to Captain Lindsey-Brabazon, 6th Welsh Regiment; Capt. T. R. Dowdeswell, 6th Welsh Regiment; and Lieut. Hywel John, 19th Pioneer Battalion, Welsh Regi- ment, for distribution among their men, who deeply appreciate the kindness and thank the donors for their gifts. The members also contribute to the amount necessary for the maintenance of a prisoner of war for the last eighteen months, and at present there is a sum of jM lOs. in hand for that purpose, The fund was organised by Mrs. Dowdes- .well, The Cottage, and she and all her band of workers can look back upon their work of love to our men with much pride and satisfaction. The total number of garments made by the class is 2,840, a truly gratifying number. On Friday evening, the Rev. W. Llewelyn Lloyd, of Fon, delivered a darJith at Moriah C.M., entitled Dwy Flynedd gyda'r Fyddin," which attracted a large audience, and proved very interesting. Mr. J1. W. Harris, Pilrhoth, presided. Sergt. John Treharne, son of Mr. and Mrs. Tom Treharne, arrived home on Tues- day from hospital in England, where he had been treated for wounds received some months ago. His brother, Pte. Trevor Tre- harne, died of wounds on the 24th ult. MAESYCR L" GLYU. During a recent thunderstorm the Railway Inn was struck in several parts. The "bolt" dislodged several slates, dislodged others in the vicinity, and scattered others right across the adjoining road into a field opposite. The chimney stack also bore part of the impetus and in all probability the bolt de- scended to the kitchen across the passage and into the dining-room, where it played havoc with certain parts of furniture and orna- ments which fell with a crash. Fortunately Mr. and Mrs. Davies and staff and a few other persons escaped, but not without feel- ing slight shocks. On Wednesday evening in last week a meeting of the Llanllwni War Charity Society was held in the Schoolroom, when various subjects in connection with the fund were discussed under the chairmanship of Air. J. Jones, Glanwern, whose only two sons are doing their duty since the com- mencement of hostilities. After having served the railway company for over three years at the local station Mr. D. H. Davies, signal porter, has left the district with the best of wishes of a host of ,friends and well-wishers. NEWCASTLE-EMLYN. A meeting of labourers and farm workers was held at the Cawdor Hotel on Friday, presided over by Mr. John Phillips, Arwel. The meeting was addressed by Mr. Hughes, of the Deckers' Union; the Rev. E. J. Davies, Bangor Teifi, and the Rev. D. D. Walters. It was unanimously resolved that a union be formed in the district. Friday last was a flag-day in aid of St. Dunstan's Heme for blind ,soldiers, and by the efforts of the energetic ladies of the town a good sum was realised. There was a large attendance at New-. castle-Emlyn May Fair, but the supply was not up to the ipre-war .standard. Cart horses sold from 265 to £100 each; two- year-old cart colts from F,40 to ,£60 each; and yearlings up to £ 36 each. A few hack- neys sold from 240 to £ 55; ponies from R,20 to £ 27; light colts from L14 to 220 each. At the Mart, Messrs. Thomas Jones, Son and George disposed of a good number of ca-ttlie and sheep. LAMPETER. On Wednesday, the closing day of Dallis iair, there was a splendid array of cattle ,at the mart, and the auctioneers, Messrs. Rees and Williams, disposed of them all at i M?riCtS' Cows and calves realised £ 35 to' per couple; heifers -in calf, £ 25 to £ 35..tat cattle were sold at graded prices, and small pigs realised from £ 3 to £ 4 10« per head. Some hundreds of people visited the town during the fair. Restaurants and eating houses were thronged, and good business was done on all hands. The be- haviour of the crowds in the streets was excellent, and the police had no difficulty ui controlling the traffic. An exhibition ot entire horses was held in the afternoon. Among the German prisoners at the Drill Hall, in this town, there is a naval ,had ^en serving on a torpedo boat, which was sunk by one of our ships He was picked up after he had been swim- ming about naked for two hours, chilled to the bone. and as heipiess as a baby. He could not clothe himself, and could not lift a cup or a mouthful to his lips. He was warmed, cothed, and fed; he was treated with such kindness that he could not thank them enough. He was a man who had aone good service to his own side, and had won a medal, which was the one earthly possession that lie retained after that swim that rpvr h,f kft tHe ^"tish ship tftat rescued hun, he presented the medal tude commaricler as a token of his grati- The mortal remains of the late MTS. Margaret Edwards were conveyed to St Peter s churchyard for interment on Fri- day. She had reached the ripe age of 84 and had enjoyed good health until a few days prior t.o her death. Some years ago she was lady's ma.d in the Falcondale family, and travelled a great deal with them. Mrs. Edwards was a faithful mem- ber of the Wesley an community in the town The Rev. Wesley Morgan (W ) offi- ciated at the house, and the Rev. D. T Alben, vicar, in church and at the grave- sZde. A large audience congregated at the Vic- toria Hall on Thursday night in last week. JSeili • Ineotjrifi' was held to discuss the 1 rohibition of the Liquor Traffic." The ch;m- was taken by Lieut.-Gei!. Sir James Hills-Johnes, V.C., G.O.B.. Dolaucothv who delivered a practical address at the opening. The speakers engaged for the occasion were the Rev. H. Jones, Llanelly ciui Rev. R. J. Rees, Aberystwyth. The usual votes of thanks were accorded the chairman and speakers, and an interesting meeting was brought to a close by eine-inir the National Anthem. The work of re-setting the slabs on the pavements has been commenced in College- street, and will probably be carried on in other streets. Frosty weather had affected t'. em, and as they were not level, pedes- na were in danger of falling at night- time. A meeting of the Lampeter Rural Dis- trict Tribunal was held on Friday, when Mr. Llew O. Davies presided. The follow- ing applications were disposed of Daniel Williams, Pistilleinon, Cellan, cow- man, application dismissed on condition that a local man should work on the farm four days a week; T. LI.

Mr. D. II. Davies was the National Service representative. A vendor of shoe-laces was diligently fol- lowing his vocation in one of the most fashionable streets in the town a few days ago, and, judging from his indignant re- marks at the close of his journey, he was fairly fed up by his non-success. Calling at: a house in the top of the street, he asked would they please buy pair of laces, when the young gilntlemiant who answered the door replied that he did not require any. This was enough, and the vendor burst out in indignation, There are beautiful look- ing houses in this street, but I failed to sell a pennyworth of laces, although I tried every one of them. I tell you what it IS. mister, nothing but puff and poverty; all the inhabitants are proud, but poor." As Lampeter has been selected as a slaughtering centre for tJl district, Mr. Morgan Hopkin, sub-commissioner, Swan- sea, visited the town last weeK, and ex- plained to a large number of fanners, butchers, etc., the provisions of the new order which had been issued by the Govern- ment for the conservation, of food. Mr. Hopkin said that under the present system a great deal of waste took place, and that with proper care much of the offal which was now thrown away could be utilised as food. He answered sevral questions put to him satisfactorily. The Health Committee had a consulation with him, and it was decided to carry out certain improvements in the local slaughter-hoive to meet the new demands. Mr'. E. Phil Jones, the energetic hon. secretary cf the Vegetables Committee, has, through the kindness of some farmers, been jable to send a quantity of vegetables for q, use of the Fleet. It is hoped many more farmers will render additional help. Special services were held at St. Peter's Church on Ascension Day at 8 a.m., 11 a.m., and 7 p.m. KIDWELLY. We regret to announce the death of Mr. Thomas, Tower Hill, Kidwelly, whose deatlji occurred on the 27th ult., after a long and painful illness. The mortal re mains were interred at Llandefeik>g Ceme tery on fhe following Thursday, the Rev. J. B Thomas, Old College School, Carmar- then, officiating. The deceased was h faithful member 'of Horeb C.M. Church. Mynyddygarrejr. He leaves to mourn their loss a widow and distant relatives.

Several farmers in the Abergwili district are still supplying old customers with dairy ffroduce at pre-war prices. At Carmarthenshire Appeal Tribunal at Llanelly a resolution was passed protesting against the fact that the recent Proclama- tion only proposes to withdraw certificates of exemption granted by tribunals. The tribunal contends that it should also have affected protection certificates granted to men in scheduled occupations. The Board of Agriculture and Fisheries desire to draw the attention of all goose- berry growers to the importance of taking proper precautions to prevent the spread of American Goosberry Mildew, especially las regards the attacks on the young fruit, which generally occur at this time of year, and which seriously impair the value of the crop.
