Ferndale.
Ferndale. It is with great pleasure that we record the marriage of Mr. Charles Williams and Miss Margaret Ann Edwards. The happy event took place at Pontypridd on Satur- day, the 4th inst., and the neighbourhood v-as pleasantly active in celebrating the enjoyable undertaking, the young couple being well-known and very popular. The bride is the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwards, King Street, who are highly respected in the place, Mr. Edwards being a deacon at Capel Wesley. The bridegroom is a native of Taliesin, anu of good parentage, and has been at Ferndale for some years and intends making his home there. We heartily join our voices with their many friends in wishing the young couple a, long. success- ful and happy life. The students of the Book-keeping and Shorthand Classes have presented their teacher, Mr. James J. Jenkins, with a highly elaborate and enlarged photo of himself as a mark of the high esteem and appreciation of his valuable services. The following is the result of the examination of the Shorthand Class:-Seeond Year First Class, David W. Hill, Tylorstown, 181 marks: John S. Hughes, Ferndale, 176; and Bertie Evans, 158. Second Class, Thomas J. Williams,* 148; O. M. Lewis, 130; R. J. Griffiths, 125; James Malpas, 115; Maurice Evans, 111; and David Thomas, 100. All passed the examination. On Sunday and Monday last, anniver- sary services were held at Salem Newydd (W.B.) Church. The Rev. R. E. Williams, Burry Port; and the Rev. John Edwards, Porth, delivered first-class sermons throughout the meetings. The pulpit of Temple (Presbyterian) Church will on Sunday next be occupied by Mr. W. Abraham (Mabon), M.P. A large number of Sunday Schools in the district went for their annual outing on Monday last, Capel Wesley. Tabernacle (W.C.), and Carmel (O.M.) to Porthcawl, the English Wesleyan Church to Cow- bridge, and Nazareth to Aberavon. Congratulations to Penuel Band of Hope Choir on their achievement last Saturday in taking first prize at Pentre Eisteddfod, where there were seven choira in competition. Great credit is due to Mr. Edward Rees (conductor) for the manner in which his choir has been trained. The Ferndale Prize Band are also to be congratulated upon capturing third prize at the Aberdare contest on Saturday last. A most excellent social tea was held at Penuel Vestry on Wednesday evening, the 1st inst., by the choir, who recently gave such an admirable rendering of the famous oratorio, entitled Samson." The cater- ing was done by Mr. Phillip Rees and staff, of the Institute, and, as usual, more than satisfied all parties concerned. After the tea, a splendid concert was given in honour of Mr. W. Trevor Lewis, the greatest baritone that Ferndale has ever produced, and who is about to leave for a tour abroad through Australia, Canada, the Fiji Islands, and South Africa with the Treorchy Royal Male Voice Party, and will be away for about twelve months. Mr. Lewis has been chosen by the party as chief solo singer, and it is unnecessary to say that all who have had the privilege and pleasure of hearing him will admire the party's good taste in their choice of a principal. The chair was taken by the veteran conductor, Mr. John Thomas, who in the course of his opening remarks dwelt upon the honour conferred upon Mr. Lewis in being selected by a choir of such high and dignified musical status. It was no easy matter, he thought, to earn distinction in a country where the entrancing art of song was so cultivated and mastered, for Wales as. a nation was first and foremost among the nations of the world in her wealth of music; yet the Royal Welsh Male Voice Choir had done so. and now commanded the admiration of the musical world, and he ventured to say that the brilliancy of their reputation

Cwmparc.
Cwmparc. A very successful smoking concert was held at Park Hotel on Saturday evening last, under the auspices of the Bristol and West of England Society. A number of local singing champions had been booked by the secretary, Mr. Tom Herbert, and an excellent programme was submitted, except, perhaps, that the comic items were slightly predominant. Mr. Edward Lloyd was the recipient of a, handsome silver medal for his zeal in enrolling new members, the presentation being made by Miss M. J. Higgon. There was a full house, and the funds of the club conse- quently underwent a pleasing: titillati pl* Cwmparc has lately experienced an epidemic of examination results, for it must never be forgotten that local educa- tion bodies have a tremendous aptitude for measuring intellectual capacities in the approved Oriental fashion. It is with much gratification we note the successes of our own students, recent achieve- ments adding fresh lustre to the record of our village. Mr. John Jones, an official at Park Pit, who has been a persevering mining student for many years, has at last consummated his ambition of attaining a First Class Manager's Certificate; while Mr, Tom Davits and Mr. Lewis Davies, two young students who are barely out of their teens, have each secured a Second Class Certificate. Miss Mary Ann Davies has secured a signal honour by easily top- ping the candidates (teaching probationers) list out of several hundreds of boys and girls. Messrs. James and Richard Evans and Rees Williams have secured First Classes in Elementary Mining, being pupils of Mr. E. Middleton. The Cwmparc Silver Band, after a short spell of inactivity, have again entered the competitive arena, and won a second prize at Aberdare last Saturday in a very hotly contested contest, beating such bands as Ferndale, Mountain Ash, Cory's (Pentre), &c. Mr. Smith, the new bandmaster, has done consistent work since his arrival, and the players have made solid progress, although there has been a lack of enthu- siasm for- some time. Mr. Smith is a young musician of great abilities, and it is to be hoped that his first success will stimulate his pupils to yet more ambitious performances Local sport" enthusiasts are at pre- sent expending their excess of energy upon the Taff Field, the scene of many stirring Soccer fights last season. Mr. W. Jenkins, Ystradfechan, has generously given permission to effect any improve- ments desirable, and will give assistance where necessary. The A.F.C. committee hope to see the arena extended by Sep- tember, and possibly the bare parts covered with a layer of turf. There is abundant voluntary labour, and probably the enthusiasm of the workers will soon convert it into a stiitable, spot for all open- air sports. Bon voyage and much vocal power with ease to Mr. Tom Thomas, Owmparc's sole representative in Mr. W. Thomas' renowned male choir, which is embarking this week on a round-the-world tour.

Tonypandy.
Tonypandy. The Tonypandy Orchestral Society, under the. baton of Mr. David Lloyd, I.S.M., are busy practising for the forth- coming National Eisteddfod at Llangollen. The test piece, Haydn's Clock Sym- phony," is well under hand. The band will give a concert prior to the eisteddfod, when the test piece will be rendered. We wish them every success and hope they will bring back the first prize to Mid- Rhondda.
IMardy.
Mardy. It is with pleasure we note that Mr. T. 1. Mardy Jones, F.K.E.S., who suffered the loss of an eye through an accident some time ago, has now practically recovered, and is about to resume his duties as checkweigher. He is also deter- mined not to abate his efforts in social reform, but to labour more strenuously than ever in bringing about the emanci- pation of his fellows. WHENEVER in difficulty as to what to give the best woman in the world spend ten minutes at Mr. J. Barnes, TheJVIardy Jew- eller. Then you will solve the difficuliy in a highly satisfactory manner; you will see some delightful novelties in jewellery.
Tylorstown.
Tylorstown. On Tuesday last, a grand tea was given at Libanus Chapel to the children of the Tylorstown Mission School, which has its place of abode at the Library and Insti- tute. The founder is Mrs. E. J. Morris, wife of Dr. E. J. Morris, Tylorstown, who started the cause' for the children of the poorer classes, and it is only due to the great persistence and perpetual effort of this lady that the success the school has now attained has been accomplished. Mrs. Morris has the sympathy of the public in general in this great and divine move- ment. We are pleased to see the great- ness of self done away with and the up- } lifting of mankind the sole object in view. 'xhis is the second treat that has been given the children this year at the ex- pense of the founder and teachers. At the tea, the following ladies of different denominations presided. Mrs. E. J. Morris presided. At the tables were: -Mrs. Rees Lewis (greengrocer), Mrs. D. Davies, Mrs. James Davies, Mrs. Wm. James, Mr«. C. Davies, Mrs. Tom Evans, Mrs. W. Mor- gan, Mrs. Bailey, Mrs. Jones (Post Office), Mrs. Morgan (American Market), Mrs. Luther Blackwell, Mrs. J. Hughes, Mrs. R. Blaokwell, Mrs. T.

After the tea, a grand enter- tainment was held. Many ministers and other local prominent personages sent messages expressing their regret at not

Treorchy,
Treorchy, The Tabernacle (English Wesleyan) Sunday School commenced their anniver- sary services on Sunday, June 28th, when the meetings were conducted by Mr. O. Gowan, Abercynon. The choir, assisted by an efficient string band, and conducted by Mr. H. Davies, John Street, Pentre, rendered appropriate hymns and anthems during the services. Among others taking part were:—Messrs. A. G. Shepherd, A, H. Davies and George Williams (dialogue), W. and Ernest Cove (recitations), Benbow, Richard Bebb, John Davies, and Mesdames M. H. Jones, H. Clarke, M. Pritchard and C. Strange. The above church held a grand tea, meeting on the following Monday after- i noon, and in the evening indulged in various games in a neighbouring field. On Sunday last, they concluded their anniver- sary, with Mr. Woodward, Pentre, and Mr. J. H. Lewis conducting the meetings. Messrs. W. H. Jones and W. H. Bevan accompanied on both days.

Davies, Dumfries Street, won the bass solo competition at the Ton Eisteddfod on Saturday last out of 16 competitors. We deeply regret, to record the death of Mrs. Edward Davies, who died at her residence, 2, Cardiff Street, after a brief illness. Deceased's husband, Mr. Davies, is the chief mechanic at the Abergorchy Colliery. Deceased was the sister of Mr. Thomas, late Treorchy Hotel. The funeral took place on Monday. Gosen Sunday School took their annual trip to Mumbles on Saturday last, and spent a most enjoyable day. The death took place, in her 71st year, very suddenly last Sunday night, of Mrs. Maddocks, 4, Cemetery Road, Treorchy. Deceased lived with her daughter, Mrs. J. White. The funeral took place on Thursday last at Llandaff. The diocesan van evangelist lectured (with the aid of an optical lantern) at the St. Matthew's New Church Hall on Wednesday evening last, on "The Spiritual and Social Work of the Church Army." The Rev. Penar Griffiths, Pentre Estyll, .lectured on Emynwyr Cymru" at Noddfa Chapel on Thursday last. The nroceeds were in aid of Mr. Thomas Meredith, Bute Street, who has failed to follow his employment for a long time. Dr. Morris, Noddfa, presided.

Dinas. The South Wales Brass Band Association held a musical competition at Aberdare last Saturday, when the Dinas Silver Band contested, under the conductorship of Mr. George Hawkins, in Class B for the £ 12 and silver shield, and easily won the prize and the muchfcoveted trophy. We con- gratulate Mr. Hawkins upon the series of successes which have fallen to the band during the past -few months. They were also successful at Pontypridd on Whit- Monday, when the cream of South Wales brass bands contested for each prize offered. "Wright and Round's Brass Band News" for this week contains the adjudication of Mr. J. Ord Hume upon their excellent performance on that occa- sion -No. 6 (Dinas, G.

.0-0_ The 20th Century Equitable Ffrwd Ledge Annual Demonstration. The second annual demonstration in connection with the "Ffrwd" Lodge of the ^uth Century Equitable Friendly Society was held on Saturday afternoon at the lodgeroom, Ffrwdamos Vestry, Penygraig. The procession, headed by the ffibernia Band, paraded the district, and on returning, sat down to an excellent cold luncheon. In the evening, a meeting was held, when several of the brethren spoke. Bro. W. Thackwell presided. Bro. J. Price (Pot-th), P.G.M., compli- mented the "Ffrwd Lodge on the pro- gress it had made, and exhorted the mem- bers to go on with the good fight for the sake of humanity at large (applause). I Bro. D. T. Jenkins (London), General Secretary of the Order, next addressed the meeting. He congratulated them on the work that had been done during the past two years. He said the time was not distant when all lodges would be held licensed premises. In Scotland, all lodges were held off licensed premises, and he was. very glad to note there was a move- ment in that direction. At the same time, he wanted to be fair to the licensed victuallers. They had to thank them for for a good deal, because in the past they were the only people who opened their doors to them. Under the old dispensation the friendly society movement was an essential part of the Christian Church, and he was certain that, rightly speaking, the friendly society is a branch of Chris- tian work, and ought never to be sepa- rated from the Christian Church (applause) They could congratulate themselves on the success of the Society as a whole. The Society had existed for 14 years as a divming society—a kind of slate club- and they realised they were working on a wrong constitution altogether. Having convinced the members of this they placed the Society on its present basis in 1905- The speaker next quoted figures showing the enormous increases the Society had made. They had endeavoured in their present constitution to lay down the priC" ciple of universal brotherhood. That was the essential principle on which the Society carried on its operations. Tn? second principle was equity, and the thir" was centralisation. They could not have universal brotherhood unless all differ- ences of opinion, all grades and all sections of society were eradicated. Nobody ought to be barred membership the strong an" the weak should join, and the strong should support the weak. That was k1? ideal of a friendly society. We were alj of one common stock, and there should be no distinction between man and mafl- They had one common fund, and all dre^ benefits from that fund. It was not su&* cient to look after No. 1, but Nos. 2, and 4, and if they could drive that home, there would be less pauperism and less talk of old age pensions. A start made in this direction by the present Govern- ment was a, start they all would welcome. Once they had got the thin end of the wedge in, they could enlarge and extend it in the future. In conclusion, Bro. Jenkins advised his hearers never to b0 discouraged, but to go on with the wor^i and tneir best reward would be that °r their own conscience, in having done some" thing for their fellow-men (applause). Bro. E. W. Holder, District Secrete proposed a vote of thanks to the ladieS for their excellent catering, which j seconded and carried; and a vote thanks was proposed to the artistes, which was also carried wnain* mously. The artistes were:—Miss Suljy Williamstown, recitation and Messrs. Edwards and T. Evans, who. sang.
Canadian Emigration.
Canadian Emigration. Although the number of emigrants froflj the United Kingdom to Canada this is less than for 1907, the quality M greatly improved both in physique and 1 general well-being. The second accommodation on Canadian PaCl^n steamers has this -ear been in eVer greater demand than third class. mechanics have crossed the water, & more agricultural labourers and farl11ef, especially farmers with some capital. have gone out not so much with the of taking up free homesteads as of buy1, land near the railways and great ce j.Vje of population. Thus, for instance, Canadian Pacific have already sold acres in excess of last year on t*1. irrigated lands near Calgary, land wn averages about 94: 10s. an acre.

would be further enhanced by the acquisi- tion of Mr. Trevor Lewis (applause). The programme was gone through in excellent fashion, the following talented artistes taking part: -Master Idwal Jenkins and Miss Eunice Davies, who gave skilful pianoforte solos. Messrs. Ben Davies, J. Whitby, Dan Jones Wm. Jongs and Tom Jones sang in splendid manner: The hero of the evening also gave some classical renderings. Mr. J. R. Lewis (Alaw Rhondda), A.Mus.T.C.L., presided at the piano, and Mr. Dan Evans gave a first- class recitation. The presentation cere- mony then took place, the Rev. Benjamin Watkins presenting Mr. Lewis with a purse of gold. He referred to the very many past services which Mr. Trevor Lewis had rendered, and of his excellent character. A more modest, unassuming young man, with a kindlier disposition and tempera- ment, he would never wish to meet. Mr. Lewis had always a smile and nod for all, high and low, old and young. Of his exceptional musical talent it was un- necessary for him to say anything; that information was public property. Mr. James J. Jenkins (chairman of the choir) explained how the movement originated amongst the choir to hold a, farewell meet- ing in honour of Mr. Lewis. He touched upon the high and loving esteem in which he was held by the choir and chapel, and wished him, on their behalf, every good fortune and success. Mr. Trevor Lewis responded in fitting terms, and remarked that whatever he would say he felt it would be inadequate to express fully his feelings regarding their many great and loving kindnesses to a, humble son of the place and a member of their sweet fraternity at Penuel. Mr. John Lloyd Evans read some very appropriate verses, and with the singing of the following verses by Mr. J. A. Davies, composed by John Vaughan Davies (loan Heulog), Gil- fach Goch, a most enjoyable and ever- memorable meeting came to a close.

The duties of secretary was ably carried out by Miss Kate Williams, who is to be congratulated for the interest she takes in the work, and also for her untiring efforts in further- ing the success of the cause. Miss Wil- liams is the accompanist at the Mission School. After the usual vote of thanks, the concert was brought to a close by the congregation singing Paid a'm gadael, dirioh Iesu." The annual outing on Monday of Libanus Sunday School has proved this year to have been one of the happiest in their experience. Weston was the place visited, and all arrangements were en- trusted to Messrs. D. Fenwick, Bryn- heulog House, and D. Williams school- master, who carried out their duties in a most efficient manner. The universal expression of pleasure and satisfaction which was made is eloquent testimony to the fitness of the gentlemen afore- mentioned for work of this kind. Both the railway and steamboat companies seemed to vie with each other in punc- tuality. On the outward journey the party arrived at the grand nier exactly at the advertised time. The attractions on the grand pier were greatly admired, and everyone returned thoroughly satis- fied.
