Ruthin Grammar School. ANNUAL ENTERTAINMENT. A crowded and appreciative audience witnessed the annual entertainment given by the scholars in the Ruthin Grammar I School on Thursday evening last, when a varied and interesting programme was delightfully gone through, and claimed the fall sympathy of the house," as was evi- denced by the hearty and repeated oat- bursts of applause which greeted the artistes. The school stands out unique in the educational history of North Wales, and under the capable head-mastership of the Rev. W P Whittington, M.A., assisted by a most capable staff of masters, the remark- able successes of the aoholars cannot be wondered at. The entertainment was throughout a masterly performance, evin- cing the thorough educational training which the boys reoeive. Each and every item was praiseworthily rendered, and where all was good it would be invidious to make comparison. Suffice it to say that the reputation earned by the school for ita entertainments was in no way allowed to laspe, and one and all concerned are to be congratulated upon another successful achievement. The programme was as fol- lows :— Part I. A Lady by Birth," (a comme- diatta). Scene- Moser'a back parlonr. Time—Present day. Characters-Peter Moser (a bookseller), Mr G luglis. Herbert Crofton (a law student), R 0 Eames. Sharpe (an inquiry agent), R T Clews. Luoy (Moser's adopted nieoe), G G Pem- berton. Hester (Moser's housekeeper), Mr A Hill-Jones.

Jack Simmons (a lawyer's clerk), Mr A Hill-Jones. Jessie Hopeful, G G pemberton. Susan Tuckett (a millin- er), R 0 Eames. Grimy (maid of all work), R T Clews. The accompanists were very skilfully played on the pianoforte by Miss M S Edwards, Church Gates, and on the harmonium by Mr W A Lloyd. Daring an interval in the proceedings the Headmaster called upon Mr Roow, an old Grammar School boy, who had recently been appointed to the very important office of Mayor of Ruthin, and who was also-a Governor of the school, to say a few words (hear, hear). The Mayor of Ruthin, who was cordially received, said he hardly knew what to say, and it was of no use speaking about municipal affairs on an occasion of that kind. As a Ruthinian, and mora so perhaps as an old boy of the school, when he saw the boys that evening, and the tremendous I amount time and energy it must have taken, them to prepare such an excellent programme* as beep carried out, be regretted be had nor, been born later than he was (laughter). No opportunity was given him 1 in bis school days with bis voice, instead it J used to be 44 Rouw, primus, stand out!" or Rouw, primus, 200 lines < n Wednesday afternoon (laughter and hear. hear). He had not the opportunity of the boys of the present day, so be was afraid his education, musically, had been neglected (iaugnter). As a Rutbinian he was prond to witness such a praiseworthy entertainment, because as a Governor of the school he knew that the education imparted therein, both musi- cally and otherwise, was of the very best (applause). He hoped that ere long the Governors would see their way to promise a large room at the school in which such interesting entertainments could be given. As they were aware tney in Wales were passing through a more or less terrible ordeal in connection with education, still he was of opinion that when the whole question was settled, it would be such as to give everyone satisfaction. At any rate he sincerely hoped it would be so (hear, hear). On behalf of the ladies and gentlemen present that evening he wished to thank Mr Whittington, the staff, and the pupils of the school for the great interest they took in those entertainments, and particu- larly the one they had given that night (applause). Mr Edward Lloyd, of Rbagatt, also a Governor of the school, next addressed the audience and referred in complimentary terms to the excellent management of the school, and the splendid education imparted to the scholars. His thoughts were in the past rather more than in the present, and he was thinking of one who was always present at previous similar gatherings-the Rev Chancellor Bulkeley Jones (applause). He had recently left Ruthin after so many years of valuable service, and from the speaker's own intimate knowledge he knew that the Rev Chancellor bad spared no pain and no trouble in furthering the success and welfare of the school since its founda- tion (applause). When, what he might term, the crisis was on in Wales as to its schools, the Warden wrote upwards of a thousand letters to the Houce of Lords in the interest of the school, and he had always the welfare of it at heart (hear, hear). It was only right and proper that they should acknowledge these excellent services, and wish the Rev Chancellor and Mrs Bulkeley Jones every happiness and prosperity in their retirement (applause). He was glad to see the other day that an old Ruthinian had been appointed as Archdeacon of Merioneth (hear, hear). Mr Lloyd then referred to the efficient way in which the school was conducted under the able and skilled mastership of Mr Whitting- ton, and in conclusion congratulated Mr Rouw, as an old Ruthinian and old boy of the school, upon his appointment of Mayor of the Bortugh. I I I feel sure," remarked the speaker, 44 that Ruthin without Mr Rouw would be like the play of Hamlet with Hamlet omitted" (laughter and applause). Rev W P Whittington, in response, thanked the Mayor and Mr Edward Lloyd for their kind words, and endorsed the remarks made relative to the Rev Chan- cellor Bulkeley Jones and Mrs Jones, who had the earnest wishes of them all for their future welfare and happiness in rest and quietude after an active and busy life amongst them (applause). He wished to heartily thank the audience for their presence and support; also absent friends who had materially contributed towards the success of the entertainment by taking tickets although unable to be present. He had been considering the reasons why they did attend those events, and one of the reasons he thought was because the school had been founded by that excellent man at Ruthin-Gabriel Goodman—(applause), who was one of the most noble-minded of men, and who did so much in the work of educa- tion (applause). Another reason, he thought, was that they believed the masters and the boys did their best to provide a pleasant evening, and made it worth while attending an entertainment to please and amuse, and that they would carry away with them pleasant reininisoenses of the event (hear, hear). He sbouid like to say that when the County School for Girls at Ruthin was founded, and other County Schools in North and South Wales, there was no more hearty sympathiser with them than himself (applause). He had always wished well of the County School at Ruthin ever since its institution; as well as of other County Schools in Wales (bear, hear). These institutions did make a difference to the Grammar School because it could not be so full. In days gone by the Grammar School was quite the public school for this part of North Wales, when it was more or less almost impossible to go far away. Now there was every facility for travel, and he wished to say that in his opinion it was quite right for parents, if they could afford it, to send their children away to large schools sueh as Eton, Harrow, and Cam- bridge, where they could mix up with a fine body of young fellows. Still at the same time if they glanced at the board in the school II by the dim light that Rnthin gave them (laughter), they would find amongst its scholars a Lord Chief Justice, several Chancellors of the Exchequer, several Bishops, Deans, and dignatories of tho law and Church (ap- plause). Only recently the Rev Canon Ellis had been made a Bishop, and as Mr Edward Lloyd had mentioned there was the Arehdeaeon of Merionotb-cf whom the school was proud (applause). He hoped the time would come when the board would contain the name of a PriDle Minister of England, who would have as his fair bride some girl front the Ruthin County School, (laughter and bear, hear). That if it did happen would prove that the education of tie two schools was of the best, and that the Prime Minister of England had good sound judgment as well as the young lady of the County School in their oboiee (laughter and applause). In conclusion he heartily thanked one and all for their continued interest in the welfare of the school (applause).

THE WATER SUPPLY. The Clerk read an extract of two schemes drawn out by the Sanitary Inspector, to bring the water from Rhuallt into the Parish. After a discussion, Mr J Parry, moved, and Mr Isaac Jones, seconded that the matter be adjourned.

DANGER OF NEGLECTED COLDS. THE WORST COLD YIELDS TO THE PURE PINE-AIR IN PEPS. Our humid and changeable climate seems to favour the development of those numerous maladies jjknown under the common name of 44 colds." Bronchial colds, pulmonary colds, malarial colds, feverish colds, colds in the head, and shivering colds," are all closely related, and all so familiar that there is a danger of making too little of them, and by neglecting proper precautions, inviting serious constitutional mischief, or "even fatal consequences. The introduction of Peps, the new pine-air treatment for coughs and colds, and all pul- monary troubles, has brought a truly scientific remedy within the reach of all. The results of neglecting an ordinary cold are often extremely serious. Neglect a cold in the head and the result may be ohronic catarrh deafness, constant running at the nose, a harsh cough, and chronic sore throat. Neglect of a cold on the cheat brings about winter cough, bronchitis, and a weak chest, even if lung in- flammation, pleurisy, or pneumonia does not supervene. Even though a coJd may seem to have been shaken off, it often leaves a weakness behind, and a tepdency to take cold again more readily than other people. This is especially the ca," when a cold has been treated with old-fashioned syrupy cough-mixtures (often heavily drugged). The Peps treatment for colds introduces the heal'ng breath of the rich pine woods into the throat, chest, and lungs. The delicate lining membranes are bathed in the soothing and healing odours released from Peps as they slowly dissolve on the tongue. When there are colds in the house, take Peps to defend you against infection. If you have caught cold take Peps promptly and freely, aud you will not only shake it off, but will escape the serious consequences. If you are suffering from the results of a neglected cold, from winter cough, bronchitis, asthma, chronic catarrh (or •• hay fever ") lung-weakness laryngitis, relaxed throat, or that nasty chest cough which keeps you awake at nights, Peps wiil bring you certain and speedy relief.

CHRISTMAS TREAT. Cheer up and go on is the motto promi- nently displayed in the interior of Llanrhaiadr Hall, and needless to say this motto is acted upon with charming results, and on Monday some 50 school children together with the old folks of the neighbourhood were entertained by Misses Verey, and Welin, principals of the household training College. After about 100 guests having partaken of an excellent tea, an entertainment was given including toy sym- phonies, songs, and national dances by Swedish ladies. After a most enjoyable entertainment, a tremendous Christmas Tree beautifully decorated and heavily laden, was placed before the guests who all received suitable presents, including shawls, slippers, and articles of that description for tp.a old folks, and the children went: home heavily laden also. After the children bad returned home, the old folks were entertained to a right royal Christmas feast which took the foxm of supper. A cordial vote of thanks was accorded the ladies who had so generously entertained them all, on the motion of Mr Searell, schoolmaster. On Tuesday, MI" Verey very kindly visited the village schools and distributed presents to those ohildre11 who had not been able to attend the entertainment at the Hall.

Death and Funeral of Mrs Samuel Davies. We regret to announce tha death, after a brief illness, of Mrs Samuel Davies, of Plas Morfa, Holywell, wife of Mr Samuel Davies, J.P., and a member of the F.intshire County Council, which took place at her residence on Friday last. The deceased was more familiary known all Miss Easterby, the only and beloved daughter of Dr Easterby, of Plas Coch, and for many years, Head-master of the Grammar School, until his retirement five years ago. Although born in Yorkshire in 1856, she first came amongst us when only foar years of age, and continued to reside here until her marriag3 on Easter Monday last, and noW close on the threshold of another christian festival in the same year it is our sad duty to record that she has passed beyond the portal. Gone borne-yes home to God For evermore beyond the reach of care, Pain, weariness, or sin. For none of these Can enter, in to touch the spirit there. The funeral took place on Wednesday last at St Asaph Cemetery. The remains, encased in a handsome oak coffin, covered with many choice floral tokens of respect, left Holywell, by road, followed by the near relatives and friends, after a memorial service at Greenfield Parish Church, arrived at St Asaph, at 3 o'clock. A few intimate friends of the family met the cortege, among whom we noticed, Dr Davies, and Lloyd Messrs Chas Grimsley, H A Cleaver, T Howes Roberts, Robert Jones, Chas Mansbridge, Samuel Powell, Richard E Griffith, W S Rogers,(Solicitor), Liverpool; R Jolley, Rhyl; Rev Jonathan Jones, C.M Rev W M Jones, etc. The service at the Cemetary was brief, and conducted by the Rev Herbert Evans, Vicar, assisted by the Rev Joseph Davies, carate of Holywell. The Cathedral choir-boys rendered very pathetically, the hymns "Nearer my God to Thee," and 41 On the Ressurrection morning." Deep and heartfelt sympathy is expressed on all hands, for her berevaed parents in the sad calamity which has befallen them, and we feel sure that we are but expressing the feelings of the citizens generally, as embodied in these lines. God of the lonely soul, God of the comfortless, God of the broken heart-for these We ask thy tenderness.

Anaemia gsinnd such a hold on me that I be- came an object of pity and sympathy. If finally I had not found new blood and renewed energy in Dr Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, I I (ire,.d to to think what would have become of me. At first a heavy tired feeling came over me. With this langour I lost all app tite, and mother was always saying, 'Why don't you eat ?' but I felt that I had not strength to masticate solid fo d, and everything I took, even a cup of weak tea, gave me the most dreadful pains in the chest and stomach. I began t,) avoid company. After a short walk I have dropped on the couch half fainting with exhaustion. Pains all up my back and across my shoulders, with a continual gnawiug ache in my legs and feet made life miserable. Mother bad often to help me to bed because of my weakness. As time went on I could not do a thing to help mother, aud soon was too weak even to help myself. Tired and helpless in limb and body, and racked with tortures, some mornings I would creep down to breakfast only to sink into a chair punting for breath. The mere- smell of food would turn me against it. I My eyes were sunken and I lost flesh and weight, while my cheeks grew pinched and colourless, and my features drawn with pain. Numerous tonics and medicines were tried, but I gained no benefit from them. At last a friend who called said to my mother, The girl is terribly anaemic, Mrs. Stephenson.' The truth flashed upon us, and I told my mother that Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People had cured hundreds of girls of aneemia, and would cure me. Very soon afterwards I ob- tained a box, and because I took the contents without any apparent relief I began to lose faith, and fancied that the old experience of failure would be repeated. But judge of my surprise when after going on with the pills a little longer I found that I could eat ordinary meal without pain. I really began to want food. and was soon eating quite like any healthy girl. Then, of course, I continued Dr Williams' Pink Pills, and quickly got stronger. "In a short time I was free from anaemia, the weakness was overcome, and I never felt languid or sad.

THE LATE Mtt. ENOS ALLEN. To the Editor of the Fmuc PRESS. Sir,—Mrs Allen, Yagubor Wen, and her family, wish me to ask if you will be good enough to allow them to thank the very large number of friends who have shewn them so much kindness in their bereavement, through the meduim of your journal. They find it impossible to adopb any other means of expressing their gratitude. -Yours truly. U D E JENKINS. 17, Gladstone Villas, December 17th, 1906. DENBIGH TOWN FOOTBALL CLU To the Editor of the FBBII PRESS. Dear sir,-I do not intend entering fnto' a newspaper controversy, but in justice to my committee and the players, I feel it my duty, and with the consent of the committee, I take this opportunity of explaining their position, and incidentally the remarks of "Spectator" in your last week's issue. H et All lovers of the game will, I think, agree with the remarks in the first few lines of s- Spectator's letter, but beyond that explana- tion is needed and is given herewith. It is true that some of the players gave a "deplorable" exhibition of temper which cannot be excused, but we are not all of the same temperament, and in time these few will discover that such tactics will not pay in the long run, and the committee have done their utmost to put a stop to rough play, any con- tinuance of such will be more severely dealt with. Anyone who witnessed last Saturday's matoh no doubt noticed with pleasure the much improved game played by Denbigh, and here let me appeal to a certain few of the spectators to refrain from urging the players to foal and ungentlemanly play: aa* The committee have done all in their power to get the right men in the right place. and nearly all available players have had more than one trial. 4 "Spectator" refers to the brothers Davies, and to clear the committee from any blame in this matter, I reluctantly have to publish their side of the matkr. U Spectator" is undoubtedly an ardent supporter of the team, and being so he should have known that the committee and my have done our utmost to get these two players to play for their native town, knowing the value of their addition to the team. I have asked them at least b»If-a-doz3u times to throw in their lot with us, but 80 far they have not seen their way clear. The committe8 are only too pleased to receive suggestions, but they ask that such things might be sent to them, and not pub- lished before they have had the time to consider the same; no good can come from airing grievances in this way, and much more will and can be done q-iietly. The co-amittee have been criticised for changing the forward line, but it IS all done with due consideration and much thought on the put the committee. -Yours truly, D. H. HUGHE0, 45, High-stree4, Denbigh. **°n P. S.-Since the above was written the br there Davies bove given their word to pUy or Denbigh for the rest of the season.
