Y maent yn codi oddiar bynciau tydd yn holl-bwysig i'r etholwyr yn yr yindrech sydd yn prysur ddynesu, a dylasai pub perchen pleidlais drwy sir Aberteifi hawlio attebion boddhaol iddynt cyn pleidio Mr Bowen Rowlands yn yr etholiad agoshaol. Safant fel y canlyn (1.) Pa fath Ymreolaeth ydych chwi dros roddi i'r Iwerddon? A ydyw eich cynnygion chwi yr un a'r eiddo Mr Gladstone ? (2.) Clwysom fod Mr Justin M'Carthy yn dyweyd f"d yr Iwerddon yn hawlio Ymreolaeth i'r un graddau ag a welir heddyw yn Canada. Ond y mae byddinoedd Canada dan lywodraeth y wlad hono. A ydych chwi yn barod i ganiatau Yinreolaeth i'r graddau hyn i'r Iwerddon] A ydyw Mr Gladstone ? (3.) A ydyw ymddygiad diweddar Mr Gladstone yn gyfryw ag i'u eyfiawnhau ni i ymddiried yn llwyr ynddo. Os nad ydyw, pa fodd y medr If ai ganlynwyr ofyn gan yr etholwyr i bleidleisio dros fesur, natur pa un y mae Mr Gladstone yn nacau ei ddadlenu iddynt'? Ond os ydyw yn deilwng o'n hymddiriedaeth llwyraf, pa beth a ddywedwn ni am ymddygiad rhai o'r aelod;tu Cymreig yn nglyn a Mesur Dysgyblaeth y Clerigwyr ? (4.)

A ydych chwi dros roddi pleidlais i fenywod mewn etholiadau seneddol ? Beth yw eich barn am bamphledyn Mr Gladstone ar y pwnc hwn ? Os y dylasai menywod gael pleidleisiau yn etholiadau Cynghorau Sirol, pa reswm sydd yn erbyn rhoddi hawl gytfelyb iddynt mewn etholiadau SHneddol ? (9.) A ydyw ymddygiad rhai or aelodau Cymreig yn nlyo a Mesur Dysgyblaeth y Clerigwyr yn debyg o gynnorthwyo neu rwystro y Saeson i gredu fod hawl deg gan y Cymry i ddadgyssylltiad yr Elw.rg Eagobol yn ei plith (10.)

LLANDEBIE.
LLANDEBIE. CHILDREN'S FESTIVAL.—A most successful children's festival was held at Liandeble Church on Monday last, when there were present five choirs, viz., Liandebie, Ammanford. Cwmcoch, Gors ai, and Golden Grove, and numbering in all no less than 200 voices. The service which was fully choral was intoned by the Rev D. Davies, the vicar of the parish, and the lessons were read by Rev D. H. Hughes, vicar of Gorslas. The choirs rendered most creditably hymns, 390, 331, and 341, (Ancient and Modern), Ptoper Psalm, Psa m 34 (Potter, in F.). Canute Domino (K Lawrance in E. sharp), Deus Misera- tur (E. L iwrance, in G. flat), and the anthem Awake Awake The choirs were under the oonductorship of the Rev C. F. Owen, curate of Ammanford, who had also trained them for the occasion, and their performances that day proved that his labour had not been in vain. Mr Mathews the headmaster of the National Schools acted as accompanist. The children were also catechised by the Rev Ebenezer Jones, Golden Grove on the Fasts and Festivals from Advent to Trinity, and the ready and intelligent answers given ahowed they had been carefully prepared. Mr Jones also delivered a short address to those present.
TRAPP.
TRAPP. CHILDREN'S' TitFAT.-Tht, annual treat of the children of the Trapp National School took place on Thursday, June 9th. The weather which offered a combination of sunshine and coolness, was all that could be desired. The provisions for the tea were provided by the parents and friends of the children and it may be stated out of respect to the school and those connected with it, that every family in the neighbourhood contributed in some form or other. The following subscriptions had been received towards entertaining the children durine the evening the right hon. Lord Dynevor, one guinea, and the Misses Ellen and Bertha Thomas, late of Cefncethin, ten shillings A large number of various kinds of articles had been purchased to be given away as prizes. In the afternoon ♦he children were treated to a sumptuous t*a at the schoolroom, and afterwards taken to an adjoining held, kindly lent for the occasion by Mr Rees Davies, Maesyffynon. Here, games, races, and different kinds of amusements were indulged in, and prizes awarded to the successful competitors. In the evening a large number of the parents and friends of the children joined and greatly added to their enjoyments. Before dispe "ing for the night, and after receiving an aoundan e of biscuits, nuts, ana sweets, woicn had been given by some of the friends present, each child was treated to an orange. Great eredit is due to the ladies who took part and presided so ably at the tables, among whom were the following Mrs Griffiths, Maesyffyuou; Mrs Edwards, Cennen House Mr Jones, Verdre; Mrs Lewis, Trapp Mill Mrs Jones, Gellytjroes Mrs Griffiths, Llwynybeddau Miss Morris, Carreg Cennen Castle, Miss Thomas, Court Miss Howells.

LLANDILO CHRONICLE., ---I
LLANDILO CHRONICLE. ENGLISH CONCJREGATIOXALISTS The half- yearly services in connection with the Engi ish Oongregationalisrs worshipping at »Javies's Memo- rial Hall took place on Suuuay, when the special preacher was the Rev D. Glannant Davies of Neath, who delivered powerful sermons to large congregations. BICYCLING.—A novelty at Llandilo is to see young ladies riding the safety bicycle they wheel" away with surprising homeliness. PREFERMENT. We hear un the best authority that the Rev W. Alban Lloyd, of Caledfwlch, has been appointed to the charge of Taliaris Chapel-of-Ease. The vacancy was caused 1-y the decease of the Rev John Davie*. Mr H. Peel, Taliitris Park, is the patron. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE — Mr John James, Nag's Head Inn, Llandilo, has just been ap- pointed secretary to the Welsh Society in con- nection with the University of Cambridge. SHEEP MARKET.—At the market on Tuesday sheep and larr bs were not in brisk demand, the former sold from 3d to 3Jd. per lb., and the latter from 4d. to 4Jd. Lambs of inferior quality were disposed of at 2id. per lb. THE DEFUNCT EISTEDDFOD. -As there are no signs of the Llandilo eisteddfod bemg resusci- tated for some time it is being suggeilted that athletic and bicycle sports should be held here annually on August Bank Holiday instead. We are sure if lovers of sports hke Mr Superin- tendent Philipps and Mr E. A. Roberts would take the matter up, their efforts, undoubtedly, would be crowned with success, and they would confer a boon upon the town and earn the gratitude of the inhabitants. MATRBIOSIAL. We have the best authority for stating that Mr D. Lleufer Thomas (barrister- at-law), son of Mr W. Thomas, Brytimien, Llandilo, will be married to-morrow (Saturday), to Miss Gethin, of Aberdare, in London. Mr Thomas is the assistant commissioner conducting the labour enquiry in Wales. LOCAL FISHING IN THE Towy. -Sport this season has been poor until last week. Dr. Lioyd, of Llandilo, has made several good baskets with fly on the Dynevor water, taking daily from three to four pounds of trout. Mr Thomas, of Caeglas, has been taking from 4t lbs to 5k lbs of trout daily, and on Friday last, Mr Lewis Clark took a few nice fish with the worm on the Golden Grove water below Llandilo Bridge. Mr Owen Richards has also been doing well on the same water. On Monday, Mr J. Lockyer caught 5 lbs of tine trout on the Dyuevor water with fly, and returned to the river scores of trout under six inches in length, and on the same day Mr Lewis Clark took a 3 lb trout with worm on Lord Dynevor's water. Dr Williams, of Llanelly, took on the same day on the Capel-issaf water, a good basket (If trout with the silver Devon and a few with fly. Nlt- David Evans has done remarkably well so far tnis season, indeed any weather seems to suit him. Messrs T. Lewis (Gmipton House), and Mr John Thomas (Thomas it Sons), also took from 6 lbs to 61 lbs of trout with fly on the clllu water. A great many jack have been caught this season from 2 lbs to 18 lbs each. Mr Hyde Clark took nine during one day's fishing from 3 lbs to 17 lbs each for which trout fishers may be thankful. No Siim m or sewin are b- ing taken except by trammel nets which are now in full swing A week or two ago the Cennen tributary, n ar Tregib, was limed, aud hundreds of trout from an ounce up to a pound in weight destroyed, this is very deplorable. There is a go id river watcher at Llangaclock, but one cannot expect him to be all over the river at one time. — The Fishlnq Gazette. MISCELLANEOUS ENTERTAINMENT.—An enter- tainment of this nature was held at Siloh Chapel, Penybank, on Thursday of last week, when a large and enthusiastic audience assembled. The chair was ably filled by the Rev. W. R. Davies, whilst Mr D. Jones, Pantyclai, conducted the proceedings. The adjudicators were the Rev. T. Tlionia-i and Mr John Walters; accompanist, Miss H Edwards. The programme which had been arranged by Mr D. J.

THE SCOTTISH HOME RULERS AND…
THE SCOTTISH HOME RULERS AND MR. GLADSTONE. TE. INTERESTING COKRESPONDENOE WITH THE EX PREMIER. The following interesting correspondence has taken place between Mr Gladstone and Mr Chas. Waddie, the hon. secretary of the Scottish Home Rule Association, on the question of Home Rule for Scotland Scottish Home Rule Association, Edinburgh, tith June, 18i>2. The Right Hon. W. E' Gladstone, M.P. Dear Sir,-At the iiftli annual conference of the Scottish Home Rule Association, held at Dumfries on the 3rd inst., it was unanimously resolved to send a deputation to wait upon you on your forthcoming visit to Edinburgh. I was instructed to write and ask you the earliest date you could fix for receiving this deputation. We wish to confer with you as to the best manner of securing a restoration of our National Parliament and Executive Government, while maintaining the Union with England, Ireland, and Wales, of which all Scots- IlIen are justly proud. T need hardly say that the executive committee of this association are most anxious to be able to advise our members to support the candidates who are seek- illg to be returned in thf interest of the Liberal party. But before we can do so we must have a clear and unequivocal expression of the policy of the Liberal party towards Scotland and this our national demand. It is with a view of removing any doubts as to the dealing with the Scotch Home Rule question in the next Parliament that we seek this interview with you a id as we are now within a few days of the General Election your immediate attention will particularly obligf). Provo-its of various burghs throughout the country, and other Scottish Home Rulers, have expressed a wish to form part of the deputation. Your obedient servant, CHARLES WADDIK, Hox. SEC. Hawarden Oastle, June 7, 181)2. Dear Sir, I have the honour to receive your letter of the tith. It has been my uniform practice to look to my friends on the spot who q,re best acquainted with the circumstances to frame plans for the disposal of mv time during my visit to Midlothian. The labour connected with the delivery of speeches to large numbers has not heretofore permitted me to enter upon the discussion in conversation of great and complex public questions, not relating to Midlothian in particular, but to the country at large, and I fear that the ninth decade of my life is not more promising in this res >ecfc than the eighth. But I 'had be most, happy to explain freely my sen- timents ..n Home Rule in Scotland or to answer nuestious put to me concerning them as I have done heretofore: as also to press the impropriety of over- ridin, in Parliament by English votes while the present legislative arrangements contiuue in force many decisive expreaciou- of Scottish sentiment conveytd by the votes and speeches of Scottish members.—Yours very faithful and obedieut, C. Waddie, Esq. W. E. GLADSTONE. The Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M.P. 11th Jnne, 1892. Dear Sir,—I am in receipt of your favour of the 7th inst., for which I am much obliged. As requested, I have communicated with your agent, Mr Campbell, and await his reply. As it is to you, as the leader of the Liberal party, we must finally look, I trust you will not think me too impor- tunate if I again bring under your notice what expres- sion of policy t e Scottish Home Rulers desire. We wish to know now, before the General Election comes on, for our guidance at that Election, whether the Liberal Party are prepared to include Scottish Home Rule in their programme. The last de- laration of oil,, association on the subject | was a resolution, 'inanimou'dy adopted, at a meeting of 12 000 Scottish Home Rulers, held at Dumfries on 3rd iii,t. --namely That no settlement of the Home Rule question is practicable which would not confer upon Scotiand a separate Legislature and Exeoutivf for her national affairs, and at the same time maintain the unity and supremacy of the Imperial Parliament." What my executive now desire to ascertain is whether or not the Liberal party is prepared to giye practil'alieffect to this resolution in the next Parlia- ment if they are returned.—Your obedient servant, CHARLES WADDIE, HON. SEC. June 12th, 1892. Dear Sir —You will, I am sure, at once perceive that as you cannot speak foi the Dumfries meeting beyond what it resolved, so it is not possible for me to speak for and commit the vast body of the Liberal party throughout the country; but myown opinions are entirely at the service of my constituents.—Yours faithfully and obediently, W. E. GLADSTONE.
THE LONDON COUNTY COUNCIL.I
THE LONDON COUNTY COUNCIL. The shadow of the general elertion was upon the London County Council last Tuesday afternoon, for the attendance was uncommonly thin. Lord Rosebery read a letter from the clerk giving information of the bankruptcy of Mr E Bowen Rowlands, and In intimation that the fact having been duly announced in the Gazette it would lie necessary to have an election in Finsbury w ith 1, fourteen days. It will be remem- bered that this bankrupt failed a few days back, his liahi ities reaching considerably over t3,000 and assets only £ 215. By reason of his bankruptcy, Mr Ernest Bowen Rowlands will not again be eligible for election on County Councils or to seek Parliamentary honours for seven years.
ABERYS rWYTH.
ABERYS rWYTH. RURAL SANITARY AUTHORITY. A meeting was held at the Town Hali on donday, Mr J. B. Morgan in the chair. The inspector produ. ed his scheme for the Treddol water supply, and the same was adopted and ordered to be carried out under the superintendence of the Inspector and a committee of Messrs Ma-^on, J. Morris, Peter ilbams, and O. Owens. A like report was suhmirted by the Inspector with regard to the Lbiurhystyd Water su..ply, and its consideration was adjourned to the next meeting of the Board. A letter received from Borth Hydropathic establishment was referred to the parochial committee for consideration. Dr Turner sent in his resignation as medical officer for the northern division, and the same was accepted. Mr J. T. Morgan gave notice that he will propose the appointment of a successor at the next meeting of the Board. The meeting was adjourned to Mood iy fortnight to fill up the vacancv. BOARD OF GUARDIANS. — Monday, 13 h, at the Board Room, Alderman C. M. Williams, vice- chairman, in the chair. The Cardiff Union wa* authorised to pay 3s tkl. per week relief to one vjary Evans. A pauper named Moses Watkins. Llanbrynmair, was ordered to be removed to Newtown and Llanidloes Union. The same order was made for the removal of Thomas Festiniog. The Clerk was ordered to communi- cate with the Cambrian Institution for the deaf and dumb and ascertain what charge, if any, they make for clothing of the pauper Bradshaw. The Clerk was directed to ask the Guardians of the Widows' Union to contribute 4s. per week non-resident rehef in respect of Jane Jenkins and her four children. The chairman gave notice that he wiil call the attention of the Board to I the scale of out-relief given to widows with children dependent on them, and move a reso- lution thereon A reward of £1, was ordered to be given for the capture of William Jones, late of Great Dark Gate-street. A vote of thanks was uiiatiniKiusly accorded Mr J. Wheatley and Mr Dyball for the treat afforded by them to the inmates of the Workhouse. THE GLADSTONIAN SCREW.—Mr George Green, mining and general engineer, is a large employer of labour in this part of the country. His name is well known, and his professional capabilities appreciated. His numerous employees consist of Unionists and Home Rulers, Tories, and Radicals, Churchmen, and Nonconformists. On Friday last, on the occasion of the midday bell ringing for the dinner hour, Mr Greon took the liberty of calling his men together and proclaim- ing to them that a public meeting would be held at the Assembly Rooms that evening in support of the candidature of Mr William Jones. Mr Green informed them that he himself was a supporter of Mr Bowen Rowlands, the present member, and an advocate of Home Rule for Ireland, and, therefore, he expected to see them all at the Assembly Rooms at seven o'clock (the meeting was announced to commence at 7.30 p m ). If this is not taking unfair advantage by an ex-mayor of Aberystwyth of the influential position he socially holds over free and indepen- dent voters in his employ, it is difficult to know what the phrase political screw means. The circumstance we have referred to unquestionably contributed to the disgraceful sequel to the affair. Possibly other employers of labour who figured at the meeting that evening used similar tactics. THE UNIONIST MEETING.—WHAT ABOUT THE KEYS -it appears that the promoters of the Unionist meeting at the Assembly rooms, on Friday ni^ht, applied to the keeper of the rooms for the keys, the possession of which it is usual to give to the party or person engaging and paying for the accommodation. The rooms are public property, in trust of the Town Council, who annually appoint a special committee to manage them. The keys, of course, were required by the committee ho engaged the rooms an hour or so before the time of opening, in order to arrange fwr the proceedings and put everything in proper order, especially to avoid a crush, which was anticipated, and rightly so, as it turned out. The keeper declined to give the keys without the authority of Alderman C. M. Williams, the convener of the Public Rooms Committee. Mr C. M. Williams was thereupon immediately applied to, and he posi- tively refused to authorise their delivery. The consequence was that the room became packed with the rabble of the town long before the meet- ing was announced to commence. The thing was so conspicuously pre-arranged, and the disturbers and obstructionists properly instructed with the result that is a disgrace to the town, and all promoted with the connivance of our County and Town Councillors,

----.------AMMANFORD.
AMMANFORD. MARKET.—As announced, the first monthly market, was held in a field adjoining the Cross Inn Hotel, on Tuesday, the 7th. A few of the local farmers brought specialities in cattle, pigs and sheep, and I am in- formed that a fair amount of business was done. It is of oourse understood that this markt-t. is to behel.. on every first Tuesday in each month. This enter pi ist- has, we are informed, been premeditated for some time, and we trust now that it is on its legs, the arrange- ments have not been made with too much prematurity to render it a failure. RIGHT OF WAY.—" Right of way" business is al- ways a difficult problem to solve, and those who wish to make themselves predominant in our Independent Chapel have come to the conclusion that is an ill wind that blows nobody any good. It appears that some time since Mr Leonard was coaching a choir of juveniles, with the object of rendering a operetta somewhat similar to Life at Sea" of which we have heard much. One evening on which he had arranged a practice, Mr Leonard found the doors of the vestry locked, he went and demanded the keys, but was refused. Since then the chapel has been in a state of revolution. The younger male members, who always used to be the backbone of the singing, have now 'gone on strike." The trustees are in a sorry plight the only excuse they can brinu forward is that adhering to the conditions of the lease they cannot allow any- thing but what pertains to religion being enacted within the sacred walls of their vestry. The vestry up to the time of this unfortunate misunderstanding has befin used for all kinds of things, and in the name of common honesty, why was not this game stopped before, or at any rate inquired into, if the lease pro- vided a clause connected with what the vestry ought to be used for. Now, the trustees have put an end to it for the time being in such an unbusiness like manner that it has caused a large amount of dissatisfaction and troph f°rWard t0 a 8peedy healinS UP of this catas- cJ; vBaNQUF;t- Wednesday evening, the 8th mst., a banquet-the first of its kind — in eon nection with our local football club, was held at the Morris nn aTs 30 th ^h8 P/e;Vdenc-v of Mr Ivor Morris. At b.30, those who had assembled were summoned to the festive board, whioh had been laid EV? ^'ever welcome dub-room of the aforesaid Hotel. The menu, presented by Host Williams, con- sisted of roast beef, mutton, lamb and pork, with the usual vegetables consistent with such a repast We are not prompted by any element implying ex- aggeration when we state that the "spread » was really a good one, and reflects great credit on Host Williams and his amiable staff; he without a doubt had done all in his power to make it all up to perfection, and we can readily testify to the fact that he was not very wide of the mark. After due justice had been administered to abbreviate the supply of eatables, the Chairman an- nounced in tones, tinted with authority, the time honoured expression that the duty was now off tobacco (somebody near me says, (I wish, it was "j Everyone having equipped himself with a pipe and 'bacco "-non-smokers included—the Chairman gave the usual toast of lioyal y." illr H Lewis of Tirydaii, then gave The Club," and in a few well chosen remarks said that he hoped that the club next season would be much more of a success than even in the season just past.—Mr E Lake, one of the see, responded, and gave a few statistics, among which were the number of matches played, won, etc., which we produce lower down. C'ouIJciUor Jones gave 'he Officers," stating the advantages of football, if played by adhering to the rules, and also in the spirit in which the game ought to be played.-Mr D Ll Lloyd responded. He thanked those present most heartily for the manner they had drank the health of the officers. The" Playerti were dealt with by Mr Dan Thomas and Mr D Elias. The latter veteran player caused much amusement by stating that he thought it best to retire from the football field, but that he would present the club with two Jameses." Mr Eliysis the happy possessor of twins, and by his remark we must infer that he intends constructing two Jameses "out of them. If this is so we must look forward to a brilliant future for AllIIllanford Football.- Dr. fi i"L.ti,eI ,,f Mr Albert Jenkins, proposed football. —There was nobody, as it seemed, to re- spond, so the Chairman, ever ready to do anything came to the rescue, and in a brief oration amused his listeners by giving some interesting anecdotes from the days when he indulged in the noble game (K Foot- ball as she was p;ayed ") when they ued to play a much closer forward game than now. In those days the third line of forwards was an iruportanfc item in the game. He (the Chairman) when playing for Swansea was in this position, and alleged that hewas the smallest of the trio (with all deference to the chairman we cannot credit the latter statement).— The Chair- man was then given by Mr E Elias, who said that words from him could not adequately express the good qualities of Mr Morris. The reception given the toast was a very warm one, indeed, and it only showed in a very forcible manner with what esteem our football boys have for such a generous gentleman. The people outside the Hotel thought that we were all in a state of inebriation in the way we sang For he is a jody good fellow," but on baing told that we had just drunk the toast of Mr Ivor Morris, they went away quite satisfied with the explanation.—Mr Morris thanked ihem sincerely for the very genial manner they had received his name.—Mr E. Evans, A.P.S., next gave the ''Host), and in a few remarks attested to the excellency of the viands, and said that such a spread was not only an honour to the Cross Inn Hotel but Ammanford in general.-Mr Williams responded tht hg tt ill done hls utmost to cater for us in nis m^ner, and he wag glad tQ 8ee th;ifc nib efforts had given unanimous satisfaction. The Ladies was entrusted to Mr Ben Davies and Mr E. owler we are informed two of the most con- hrmed i lirts in Ammanford, and we congratulate the committee in procuring the services of such a couple to take up the cause of the ladies. This ended the toast list (I -vas going to say the "First Lesson.") The company then descended to the Commercial Room of the Hotel, where some of our local vocalists wiled away the time with songs. Councillor Jones did the chairman part of the business, and Mr Ivor Morris manipulated on the piano. The following gentlemen together with the accompanist rendered songs. iU essrs Morgan Edwards, D. Elias \i *irvr' K Fovvler. p- R^s and D. T. Evans.' J a! Jun'' sang the sc?10 Part of Hen Wlad fy Nhadau, and thus terminated a most entertain- ing and enjoyable evening, the first, we hope, of many to come.—Before leaving this subject I would like to have a little of my own say in the matter. There was one slight discrepancy in the toast list but the committee must not infer from this that they are to blame, far be it from me to criticise the arrangements for they were in every respect perfect, but, "as I was a saying, there was a mistake. That" avoidable" mistake was the omission on the list of "The Mayor and Corporation of ye Ancient Borough of Amman- ford." Ah it dawns upon me. At the last Council meeting votes of confidence were proposed to the three Welsh "rebels," and of condolence to the G.O.M. in his recent bereavement over the Clergy Discipline Bill, but one of our oldest corporation members rose "P £ reat rage a"d stated that neither politics, or the G.O.M. should interfere with their business. They had assembled there to discuss matters concern- cerniug their ancient borough. These remarks so enraged some of the members that a free fight ensued, and all the members got into such a state of imbecility that they cannot substantiate themselves as a corpora- tion, and thus being so much involved we find our- selves without a borough or corporation, whinh is morally only too true. I am wondering—politics will lead you astray. Returning to the subject, we were sorry to perceive that such old footballers as Mr Ivor Davies, Mr Albert Jenkins, and Mr Percy Lloyd were not present. It is a great pity that nobody can induce Percy Lloyd to play for his own native place, instead of playing, as Mr Ivor Morris said, "for a second rate team like Llanelly." It is to be hoped that next winter pressure will be brought on him to play for us. If he will only assist us to do battle against teams who we may think are a little better than ourselves we will be satisfied; our local boys will manage the others. What we really want is some experienced persons to play for us a few matches, so that they can advocate any improvements in the respective divisions. With very little coaching, I am positive our fifteen would be a hard nut to crack. Mr Ivor Davies and Mr Albert Jenkins, although not resident in the place, very generously played for us ou more than one occasion, and it was greatly due to Mr Davies that we won our first and only victory over Llandilo. I am sure the committee were very thankful to them. Mr D. Ll. Williams, our captain," was also a conspicuous absentee oil Wednesday evening. Possibly he cap explain why he was not present. Dr. A. C. Davies, of Llanelly football fame, has, we are informed, come to the place to resist Dr. Lloyd. We wish Dr. Davies every success in the place, and should he be here next winter we might induce him to give us a helping hand. If he does not feel disposed to play for us he can give us some hints. The club last season was a decided success, both financially and otherwise, and the com- mittee are to be highly congratulated in the manner they have managedaffairs. Out of 15 matches piayed nine Vers won, four drawn, and two lost, which. T think, is a very good record. We hope that next season our boys will pull every match off, and we must prognosticate a brilliant career in Ammanford Football.
