DENBIGHSHIRE II EDUCATION COMMITTEE. r ANNUAL MEETING. RE-ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN j' AND VICE-CHAIRMAN. THE LOCALE OF THE NEXT MEETING. MAJORITY FAVOUR COLWYN BAY. The annual meeting of tlio Denbighshire Education Authority was liekl on Friday, at Chester. There were present: Mrs Parker Davies, Miss Gee, Mrs R. J. Powell, the llev. Thomas Lloyd, Messrs J. Allen, Ed., Allen (Colwyn Bay), Christmas Jonos, Simon Jones, J. Wiicoxon, Edward Roberts, Bennett Jones, John Roberts, D S. Dav.es, W. G. Dodd, E. R. Parry. F. A. Sturge, J. Harrison Jones, W. Griffiths, R. A. Joues, J. R. Williams, G. Cromar, Sir Fos- ster Cunliffe, Mr John .Roberts (joint secre- tary), and Mr Davies (organiser of educa- tion). THE ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN. Mr EDWARD ROBERTS said he rose -Yith great pleasure to propose the re-elec- tion of Mr W. G. Dodcl. It did not re- quire any recommendation from liiiii to com- mend Mr Dodd to them, as they knew tuti well what he had done in the past. He Ind been chairman of the committee from the first, and had tilled the chair not only with entire satisfaction, but with ability and strict, impartiality (hear, hear). He had every confidence in Mr Dodd, because they knew that when he was in the chair they could not go wrong. More than that, Mr Dodd had alt the qualifications of a chair- man, a clear intellect. a coot head (laugh- ter),—and sound judgment. Then he had an even temper, and patience bordering <;n the perfect (hear, hear, and laughter), lie thought that they were very fortunate in having amongst their members one who was so well qualified to preside over their de- liberations and to guide them. Mr D S. DAVIES seconded, and said th.it he subscribed to all that Mr Roberfs had said. Thev were fortunate in having a chairman who would be able to guide them through the troubled waters into what he hoped would soon be a more calm state of things. The unique position which that e-onnty held as regards education was largely due to Mr Dodd. Mr DODD was unanimously re-elected, and in returning thanks, said that lie was rather hoping that he would this year have been relieved from the duties of the chair, but he had looked around and there did not appear to be anyone who was anxious to take that position. He hoped he would give them satisfaction during his term of office, and thai, as Mr Davies had said, they would soon pass into smooth waters. He was sure they would all work amicably together during the coming year. THE YICE-CHAHIM A N. On the motion of Mr JOHN ROBERTS, seconded by Mr WILCOXON, Mr J. K Powell was unanimously re-elected to the vice-chair. SCHOOL FURNITURE. Mr D. S. DA VIES moved the adoption of the report of the committee which had sat that day as regards the renewal of furni- ture. He said that they had decided to grant £ 273 3s 3d worth of things, and lij hoped that they would be able to keep with- in the estimates, as they had not grained all thar, was asked for. Air CHRISTMAS JONES, in seconding the adoption of the report, said that I be actual amount asked for by the schools was so that they had only granted about one-third. The report was adopted. APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEES. When the committees were appointed, Sir FOSTER CUNLIFFE said he would sug- gest that Colonel Sandbach be appointed en the Staff and Supply Committee. There were vorv little representation on that com- mittee, and C-olonel Sandbach would be a useful member. The CHAIRMAN said the committee was appointed by the Education Authority, and he did not quite understand Sir Foster t'lIlllifl'ú's reference to "they." Sir FOSTER CUNLIFFE said lie did n, t want to raise general questions, but he speaking of the Education Committee gen- erally. Their representation was small. The CHAIRMAN Whom do you refer tc ? Sir FOSTER CUNLIFFE: 1 refer to ii-e members of this committee. He added that it was understood that he was speaking for the minority on the committee, and he con- sidered that on such an important committee the minority should be represented. He noticed that several of the members of the Staff and Supply Committee had 110+ at- tended many meetings, and he suggested that one of the majority should stand on one side for Colonel Sandbach, who would represent the minority. The CHAIRMAN suggested that Sir Fos- ter C'unlitfe should be added to the cum- m it tee- Sir FOSTER CUNLIFFE replied that he had plenty of meetings to attend now, and Not caring to take up an office unless he was able to attend its meetings, he thought that Colonel Sandbach would probably be more useful. Mr CHRISTMAS JONES: Put both on. Mr D. S. DAYIES proposed Sir Fosror Cunliffe. Sir FOSTER CUNLIFFE proposed that Colonel Sandbach be elected to the com- mittee. but Miss GEE hoped that Sir Foster, Cunhffe would try and attend. Let him act for twelve months at any rate. It. was carried that Sir Foster Cunliffe be added to the committee, which was appoint- ed as follows :—Messrs D. S. Da vies, Jas. Darlington, W. J.. Williams, J. Wiicoxon, Wrn. (Jruliths, F. A. Sturge, Geo. Cromar, Ed. Roberts. Simon Jane", J. Stephen Jones, E. W. Thomas, Hugh Hughes. W. G. Dodd. Christmas Jones, J. E. Powell, Dr. J. M. Hughes, Mrs Parker Davies, Llev. Thomas Lloyd, Miss Gee, Colonel C. S. Mainwaring. and Sir Foster Cunlitfa. During the discussion on the eleclion of the other committees. Mr WILLIAM GRIF- FITHS (Llanfair) said he thought it was time that they had more of the lay, and less of the clerical, element on the committees. He noticed that many of the siib-oommittees weie composed almost entirely of ministers or clergymen. Surely they could get a few more lavmen to take an interest in education. He attended one meeting and found that all others were ministers. Mr JNO. ROBERTS suggested that the ministers and clergy had plenty of time. In several instances the committee filled vacancies by appointing laymen, but there were several interesting fights when various names were suggested, and in some instances it was remarked that the nominees voted upon were of different religious sects. When the Finance Committee came to be re-elected there was a vacancy, and Mr R A. T ones and another member each re- ceived eight votes. The CHAIRMAN said he did not like to vote on such a question, and while he hesi- tated someone suggested that Mr R. A. Jones should vote for himself. Amid much laughter Mr Jones held up his hand, and was declared elected. Complaint was made that the more prominerif agricultural members on the Agri- cultural Committee had not attended very well, and Miss Gee said that the explana- tion probably was that the meetings were lield at Rhyl on the same day as the County Education Committee, and members pre- ferred to attend the county meeting than the other. The CHAIRMAN pointed out that in future as that committee had full powers the Agricultural Committee would re- port direct to that authority, gjid so could arrange for its own meetings.

"HUMORS OF HISTORY." .o: AN INCIDENT ON THE MORNING OF CRECY, 26 AUG. A.D., 1346. The War Office of 1346 was evidently more wideawake than that of the present day, for we are told that although gunpowder had only just been discovered cannon were used at the battle of Crecy, and that a French outpost was surprised by the British Artillery. This is supposed to be the first instance of the use of firearms in war.

Parry County Council- Association: Mr W. G. Dodd and Mr J. C. Davies. THE LOCALE OF THE NEXT MEETING. ABERGELE v. COLWYN BAY. It had been reecrremendied by a previous meet- ing that the committee should meet onoe a year at Wrexham. Denbigh, and Colwyn Bay. Mr CHRISTMAS JONES entered a pro'est against Denbigh, pointing oit that on the Izitt occasion the hall was ao terribly cold that they could not sit there. GEE said that wa.s< not fair to Denbigh. They should have selected a warmer day (h'.ugh- ter). If the .County Council had done its duty and put the hall in repair the heating apparatus would have been all right. Mr WII/XIXON: It Is the fault of the Stand- ing Joint Committee (laughter). Mrs PARKØR DAVIES considered that the committee should meet at Abergele. If tlioy did meet there it would do good to the school. M people took more interest when they taw a. public bedy in t.he town. Mr HARRISON JONES agreed with Airs Parker Davies, and thought ihat they should give Abergele a cttiance. Mr GRIFFITHS (Llanfair) moved that the next, meeting be heVi at Abergele. Mr D. S. DAVIEfe pointed out that the seliool was a mile from the station, and he thougiln they should consider mcJiibers. The reason Colwyn Bay was proposed was because it was more cen- traJ. Mr GRIFFITHS said he failed to follow tTie argument of Mr Davice. At Colwyn Bay they would have to walk at. least (half-a-miie to the County Building-s, and why should Abergele- be so much ignored, lie proposed that they meet at Abergele next. lime. Mrs PARKER. DAVIES seconded. r WILCOXON proj:>c;»ed that they meet at Cheater. a,, it was oonvenient for everyone both from tthe Denbigh and Llangollen end". Mr I'jD. ROBERTS seconded, and eaid thev always liad good meetings at Chester, and it wiu* very convenient. Muss GEE asked that the committee would con- sider someone besides the people from Wrexham. It cost people from the Llan.rwst and Denbigh end four times wha.t it cost tlho Wrexham people to get to Chester. Let there be a. spirit of fair- nci! abroad. On a division, eight voted for Chester, and nine for Abergele. Mr EDWARD ALLEN then moved that the meeting be held at Colwyn Bay instead of at Abergele. He pointed out that Colwyn Bay was an educational contre apart from its importance in other directions. He was sura thev would have an audience at Colwyn Bay v, ho would listen with interest to the deliberations of the committee. Tlioy had the county buildings near- ly completed, and it wc u d bo well for some of the members to inspect them. Mr D. S. DAVIES seconded, and said he did so as he knew that Colwyn Bay people took a sympathetic intorest in education. lie failed to see why they shoiu'd re-open the matter when it had been decided that C'olw vn Bay should taiio its turn with Denbigh and Wrexham for tho meetings. lIe also felt that the Wrexham mem- bers should make a iit-tJe sacrifice at times, as the members from the Western portion of the oounty had to travefi a great d 11; tallcq at times to attend meetings at Wrox ham. Mr HARRISON JONES thought that they might go to Abergele once in a way. On a division, it was decided by ten votes to eight to go to Calwyu Ihy, TITHE RENT CHARGE. It was reported that process had boon issued against the committee from Capel Garmon for £10 tithe J'ent charge, which, it was alleged, had boot: paid under a m:s-3ta.t-cmùnt of facts. By arrangement the case had stood over unt.il the court oTt Juti'i. 26, and the Clerk was directed to go into the matter, and defend, if nocessary. DELEGATION OF POWERS. From the Wrexham and Denbigh District Managers' Committees requests were received asking that fu'ler powers should be delegated, in- cluding the seleetictti of head teachers from short Úsis submitted by the authority. The Chairman said that a cliange would have to be made before very long, because it was important to elicit the symj>athy of local people, but whether this was the exact moment for bringing about any change NTai questionab-e. It was one of those matters which waited upon things which might not come off (laughter). Sir FOSTER CUNLIFFE said he felt it would be a mistake to delegate the appointment of head teachers, but other duties and ^y.vcrs might very wall bo entrusted to the district managers. Mr 1). S. DAVIES said ho was sure ail the sub-ocmniitioos would welcome some form of de- volution, but at prevent legislation was pending which they ail 1101WA would settle the question, and very likely define the lines on which the delegation must take place. Until they knew )f tit(-, E,II-teaiic.Ti ¡' Bdl he 1 proposed that the question of delegation be postponed. This was agreed to.

Jones (50) paid he was on duty in Denbigh-street on Friday about 9.45 p.m.. when he observed tihe prisoner, who was drunk and u-iing had language. Witness requested him to go to his lodgings, but he refused to go, and beca-me so disorderly that lie had to be taken to the police station. OIl the way the prisoner made a rush to Mr Jones' (the greengrocer), where he took a kiiife out of his pocket, and opening or:-& of the blades threatened to "rip" Mrs Jones After some trouble pritfoner closed his knife and placed it in hL-) pocket. While going up Denbigh-street prisoner struck witne-'s twice, and just as they were near the top of D?nbigh-strcet a man shouted "1, Ic out for the knife, Jones. The prisoner had again taken out hi* knife, and it was the glitter of the oppn blade which had attracted attention. While in the police yard prisoner kicked witrims twice on the logs. Mr Wood and P. Holgate then came to his assistance. Holgate ta.king the knife away from the prisoner. Mr It Wood, coachbuilder, Denbigh-street, stated that while in hie house he heard a row outside, and went out to see the cause. He then saw P.C. Jones struggling with fcha prisoner, in whose hand he observed a glittering instru- ment. Whereupon he went to the constable's assistance. P.C. Holgate deposed that he saw P.C. Jones and the prisoner .struggling near the polic-e- station. The prisoner had an (pperri knife in hi", hand. Witnet-s went, to the other oonstahle's assi^ta.nce, and forced the knife out of the prisoner' hands. Prisoner, in replying to the charge, naid lie was very sorry for what had occurred. He had never been charged with using the knife be- fore, although he had. been fined for druiikc-ii- nev-s. Supt. W 00!lam: The prisoner has only been in J the district a fortnight, and is working at Dol- garrog. Nothing M known of him. The Chairman The charge of a^-aulting the police is a serious one, especially the threatening of the officer with an open knife. For being drunk and disorderly we sentence you to 14 days' imprisonment, and for assaulting the police you are sentenced to 11 weeks' imprisonment, both with hard labour, and both sentences to run concurrently.
MR ABTEMUS JONES AND THE WELSH…
MR ABTEMUS JONES AND THE WELSH PARLIA- MENTARY PARTY. "AN INEFFECTIVE ORGANISATION." Mr Arte.mus Jones delivered' an address on Liberal and Labour topics at the Liberal club, Blaenau Festiniog, on Saturday night. Mr Jones, dealing with Welsh. Diseiablish- ment, said it was idle to ignore the discontent and dissatisfaction which prevailed in the Principality on tho subject. The only thing which had reeo-nciled the Welsh people to. the inaction of the Government was the knowledge that Mr Lloyd George was in the- Cabinet, ready to avail himself of the first opportunity of pro- moting that cause. Never had the i'arli-amctt- tary situation been so favourable to Welsh Dis- establishment as at the present time. Than why had nothing been done? The answer was twofold. There were two ways open to the people of Wales for attaining their object. The one was to oontre their hopes on the Liberal party, and by means of Mr Lloyd George's great position in the councils of the party induce them to take up the question and puil it through. Tho alternative oourse was to imitate the Irish, the Labour, and1 the suffragette parties, and strike out on an independent course. The only standard which a British Prime Minister could havo for lie urgency and importance of any demand tor reform was the degree of pressure brought to bear upon the Government of the day by the people who demanded that reform. It was this fact which brought the attitude of the so-called Wclsiii Parliamentary party into so much ridicule. Its failure to reniovo the anxiety of the Welsh on this question condemned' it as an in- effective organisation (hear, hear). What Wales wanted was a party which, while re- maining true to the great traditions of Libe- ralism, would not close their eyes to the reali- tics of political life, and would open their mouths, not to receive the sweets of ofliee, but to demand with no uncertain voice that ju.stio--1 should bo done to the unanimous demand oi the Principality.

NASAL CATARRH and difficult Breathing. A CERTAIN CURE. Nasal Catarrh commences usually by running at the nose, inflammation of the mucous mem- brane of that or,-an and throat being influenced, followed by a stopping up of the air vesicles ot the lungs and inflammation of the broncliliti surfaces; developin.g generally into catarrhal bronohits or asthma, with a dry or loose cough and difficult breathing. The safest and most certain remedy for con- ditions like these is Veno's Lightning Cough Cure, a medicine which acts directly on the mucous surfaces, relieves irritation and' the stopped up feeling, clears the broncliial tubes and air vesicles, and drives catarrh thoroughly out of the system.

THE "SUNDAY CHAIRS" CONTROVERSY AT LLAN- DUDNO. PnOTEST BY FREE CHURCH COUNCIL. The first meeting of tho Llandudno and Dis- trict Free Uhur-oh Council waa held on Friday evening. The President, the Rev. I). Gwyti- fryn Jones, was in the chair- Tltere was a satis- factory representation, every church in the Union being represented. Among the subjects that catnn up for discus- sion was that of hiring Sunday beach chairs at LlaiKi'udnO'. The Chairman said that a certain, taction in tho town liad held a meeting and had dooklod to n»emoralise the Urban Council to U.S I grant jiermission to hire beacn chairs on SUll- day. It had boon suggested that tho Free Church Council ought to' take seme action on the otlter side. The matter was now open for di.->outs.-nwi. Mr W. Williams, Myrtle House, submitted that the Council ought certainly to do some- thing to stem the tide of Sabbath desecration in the town. The question of the Sunday chairs appeared to somo people atid uti. important-. Still he wan convinced that it was only part and parcel of a movement that, had been going on tor same tiuve, and that -would vc I stitl go oil. The people who led this movement wero th<.>>O who had been agitating for Sunday trams, and if the chairs were granted they "would then agitato for Sunday trams. lie heartily proposed that the Free Church Council should take means to oppose the present re- quest. Mr John Roberts, Clarenoo House, seconded the proposal. lIe looked at the mutior in the same light as tho previous (speaker. The agita- tion was oertainly part of a wiubr and more subtle movement against the day of rest. Mr T. W. Griffith deplored that this matter should bo ^raised again when the Council had disposed of the matter only a month or 30 ago. Tho agitators were availing themselves of tho fact that the Chairman had not given his can- ing voto- Had the Chairman given his vote the matter ooadd not have boon brought for- ward for at least six months, lie was afraid that they regarded the councillors as children who aIterod their opinions everv 24 hours. They were inspired, too, he though; by an unworthy desire to conquer, lie heartily supported the resolution. Dr. Spinther Jamas said that the agitation conducted by men who were comparative strangers to the town and did not understand the sentiments of the Wohh nation, whoso re- ligious instinct was so passionate and strong- Dr. James contended that the chairs were not necessary inasmuch as tho Council were pro- viding ii\ed seats all along the promenade. An ado'itiojial number of seats -were provided each successive year. He was perfectly willing to bo called a fanatic, and a narrow-minded bigot, but as a matter of fact the fanaycjsrn and bigotry was on the other sid. Mp V'- supported the motion be- cause the hiring of the chairs must necessarily lnvoivo Sunday labour and Sunday trading, and tend to lessen the peace and quietude of the Sabbath, lheso, he said. were principles upon which they con lei all agree. The Rev. David Davies concurred. Bourne- mouth, he said, was more popular as a seaside resort than even Llandudno, and there tlier had a perfect day of rest, "without charabancs trams, or anything else of the kind Mr Henry Williams.

PROPOSED HOimCUlj- TUHAL SHOW AT CONWAY. APPOINTMENT OF COMMITTEE. At the Guild Hall, Couwav, on Friday evening. the Mayor (Dr. R. A. Pi-wiio-rd. J.t'.) pro-ided over a public meeting convened ti, the imstan-co of the Market and Fairs Committee for the pur- pose of considering the adviAabihty of promoting a horticulture show for Conway and district. Among thcoe present were: Councillor Fred. Jones, Messrs John Roberts, R. Greeniield, F.R.H.S., J. Herbert Jones, Robert John&ou, IJandudno Junction; J. Jo-iic- Bryn Edyn; J. Tiidal, Mcrfa; G. L.

Greenfield asked if the Town Council were -willing to aet'io. financially in the matter. The Mayor replied that he did not think they as their estimates were made out for the current year. Mr Fred. Jone^ raid that the propreal to in- augurate the a' ow had been discussed at the Mar- ket and Fairs Committee, when it was decided to ask the Mayor to call a puibiic meeting to teot public feeling on the matter.. If it was deciditv.1 to have a show, he suggested that one section of the exhibits should he open to prûfl"¡oll.tl gardeners, and the other be confined to amateurs. Mr Greenfield Ill-ought it would be a good thing for Conway to have a show, as the district generally seemed to be very backward in horti- culture. A good show would not only improve matter* by creating friendly rivalry, but would, no doubt, bring many visitors 10 benefit the town. The Mayor said that ai tempts to hold success- ful shows in neighbouring towns had been a failure, but that waa no reason why they should not succeed at Conway, where they had such beautiful surroundings. Mr Fred. Jones said it was necessary to at art a fund before they could organise a bow. Mr Greenfield thought local r<jsidents would support the movement, but wasi afraid that the time was too shoirt to arrange for a fc-how this year. If they desired an exhibition this year it would have to be on a very small scale. lie suggested appointing a committee to organise a really good oho-w for next year, and he. there- fore, formally proposed that jj, show be held, and the date left, to the committee to fix. Mr Robert Johnson seconded, and the motion wa,, carried unanimously. The following were appointed on the com- mittee: Messrs R. Greenfield, W. A. Coat ess, J. Tindall, Guise.
