THE CIRCLE-AVENUE. TO TBB KDTTOR. Sir. I was very much interested in read- ing the article on the above subject by the Rev. John Griffitit in your last week's issue.. I cannot, however, agree with him when he savs that the religious element was a secon- dary consideration in a Gorsedd Circle. Again, h e says that the stones have nothing Ui do with Welsh Paganism or Welsh -Chris- tianity. I agree that they have nothing to do with Welsh Christianity, but if bv Welsh Paganism he means Welsh Druidism. i beg to difter from him. The ancient Gorsedd or Convention of the Druids was essentially a religious observance. Whether the Circle and approaching grove or avenue was formed of oak trees or of large stones—where trees were not available-the object was the same—the performance of re- ligious rites. All other eOIl"eratioDs. such as C onventions for diffusing knowledge, for administering the lawst^or for conference. were of secondary imporuhn^. The groves were oriented to allow the rising «un to enter and shine upon the polished altar stone, thereby casting a brniianoe all around. There was no other object in having them true to the orient. They worshipped the sun. or rilher the Great Spirit, or First C ause, which dwelt in 1 the sun. The circle, whether it was of fees or large stones, was to them the symbol of Divine protection. They held this view in common with the ancient Hebrew nation. In the Book of Zechanah we read, For I saith the Lord will be unto her a wall of fire round about": and the Psalmist in the 125th Psalm sings. As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about His people." The Gorsedd Circle embodies this idea. It is hardly correct to refer to the Druids its being Pagan. Tliev were not idolaters in the general acceptation of the term. Ac- cording to Strabo they were a highly civilised and cultured people, and Julius Caesar speaks of the excellency of thei" sehoob. We know little of their literature, as their wisdom was not allowed to be w ritten down, but was com- mitted to memory in the form if verses. The bards are &■«id to have raugM their pupils twenty-tour thousand vers* Many 0f tile triads have, however, been preserved, and these testify to the high standard of their ethics. Take this as an example: The three hard things of the world a fiuii stone. stag's horn, and the heart oi the son of > coveteousness. w h.ei; the VHler o: t.!••<• rth le claims that- the stones ivpresi'n; ierv*>s of arohl- tincture, or that they m-J-im the' d; ys as an almanac. I re^r* x t !i?:t i di r.at understand. 1 I look upon tiie C irc-le-AVCT-ue as represent- ing, or as 1,( 3 i;v. v>ery what was a Vtv- reality mages iujic; tuee post, and re- us Vi ii! "round t His people." Tn that sense there is « religious elcw;e.'i iji "hem I ;n;i. ftc -1

Glamorgan Gazette. /CENTRAL GLAMORGAN GAZETTE.\ VBRIDGEND & NEATH CHRONICLE./ INDEPENDENT. FRIDAY, JULY 8th. 1910. Much indignation lias been righteously arousod among the inhabitants of Porth- cawl by the attack made upon the town by the Hey. T. niehards at the meeting of the Eastern Division of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Federation of Free Churches ,,Iiir F I at Newport. Informing the meeting that a mission was to be held at this seaside suburb of Cardiff in August, the rev. gentleman said Porthcawl was the rallying point of the forces of the Devil. There was a lot of iniquity there, a lot of Sabbath breaking, Sunday tradin, and Sunday drinking. This latter was sufficient without the introductory re- mark but Rev Seth Joshua "prayed God that he would have as strong a blow as Johnson to fight against the Devil at Porthcawl. On Sunday its streets were lined with drunken j people, and the atmosphere of the place vi- brated with horrible blasphemies." A harsher attack on a town striving to make headway as a health resort can scarcely be imagined, oven if the statements were in ac- j cordance with fact. No doubt the S(.tll Joshua felt there was need for hard hitting in some direction.o turned his attention to Porthcawl, where lie probably expects to I make many converts during his visit. It is usually the custom when a town, and especi- ally a seaside town, is beginning to lift itsplf from obscurity and to take its stand with other towns in the race for popularity, for o 1)4, at it from all directions. In this raw not only residents, but visitors to Porthcawl are of opinion that the Rev. Seth Joshiiii has five; stepped the mark. Nothing can do a town gr< ater injury than disparag- ing stat; inents at public meetings, and the rev. gentleman apparently wanted to make a good ca-e while he was tackling the question. We sugge'-t lie has 'lOt visited the town on a Sunday, c.i:: rwi.^e he would have moderate'! I his .language as to the conditions prevailing there. I If is adi^itt. not more by out- I ..ic! s by i\ sidc-n^s, t liem:-elves, that 1 (:. there has boon, and still is, need for improve- J ment. and legitimate criticism has been offered in our columns, but, even though things were not so black as pourtrayed by the Rev. Seth Joshua, inhabitants quickly grasped the situation, and a laudable effort was made by the local Chamber of Trade to deal with the difficulties. A deputation was arranged to meet Supt. Davies. and after a courteous hearing, a promise was made for a batch of police to be despatched to the town. Effectual steps were then taken by the members of the constabulary to deal with disorderly persons, and the result is that Porthcawl now no more resembles the rally- ing place for the forces of the Devil" that other seaside resorts which bid for the patronage of the public. The Rev. Seth Joshua does not cover himself from the at- tacks of an opponent in the capable manner the boxer whose strength he was praying for did, because he admitted that even the people of Newport sent down their aristocratic sinners with their clubs and golf balls, and another rev. gentleman remarked that it was the people with plenty of leisure time who desecrated the Sabbath. Then why attack Pürthcawl Why not get to the seat of the evil. and deal with those aristocratic Newport p-eople: and also turn loose ministers in some of the mining valleys whence come these men who desecrate the Sabbatif at Forth- cawl:" Meanwhile the Rev. Seth Joshua may rest assured that the Chamber of Trade, who have ahlv handled the question up to the pre- sent time, stiil have the welfare of the town at heart, and. with the kindly co-operation of the police, they do not intend to allow its atmosphere to vibrate with horrible blas- phemies or its streets to be lined with drunken men.

[ The choir, under the conductorship of Mr. W. Leyshon, performed admirably, especially at the afternoon service, when a beautiful cantata, The Coming Kingdom of Christ," was rendered, the solos, duets, and quartettes being sung with much sympathetic feeling, but lost some of their charm owing to the separation of the singers. The orchestra was under the conductorship of Mr. Gomer Jones, and Mr. T. Davies ably presided at the organ. Miss Doris Davies, before the service, sang with beautiful effect. The Pure White Soul. Several pleasing items were] contributed by young members of the school. In the evening a stirring address was given by the Rev. W.

The number of scholars totalled over 150, and were in charge of Mr. Spencer, the superintendent. Games were organised, and a pleafeant time was spent on the rcoks and Iteach, while the walk on the cliffs proved refreshing.

j INFIRMARY SQUABBLE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD INQUIRY ASKED FOR. NTHSE BROUGHT0N REFUSES TO RESIGN. SrNDA y NIGHT SCEXE, ANOTHER KrnSE CALLED IX. Some idea of the excitement and confusion which has of late existed at the Infirmary was conveyed to members of the Bridgend and Cowbridge Board of Guardians on Saturday, when discussion arose out of the following letter read by the Clerk from Nurse Broughton — I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 20th June conveying the deci- sion of the Guardians at their last meeting. on the report of the House Committee. I beg. in reply, to respectfully decline to send in my resignation, and to demand a. Local Government Board inquiry into the subject matter of the re- ort of the House Coinmit- tee. and the manner in which I have dis- charged my duties as superintendent mir.e. Please lay this letter before the Board at their next running and acquaint me whether you are taking the mx-essary steps to obtain an ir.cuiry. or whether I am to do so. —I remain, sir, yours obediently, LIZZIE BBOVCHTON. Supt. Nurse. 1r. T. J. Job (who was in the chair), said he thought it only right for the Board to know that a report would be submitted by a special committee which "at on the previous Monday. The Rev. D. Phillips said a special commit- tee was called together by the Master of the Workhouse on Monday morning to hear a statement he had to make respecting the strange attitude of Nurse Armitage. It ap- peared that on Sunday night Nurse Armi- tage got into a hysterical condition, and it was with great difficulty that two men res- trained her. as somebody put it. from kill.. ing somebody." (It is stated that she was brandishing a poker at the superintendent nurse). She was, after a struggle, taken away from the Infirmary into the master's house, and stayed with the matron all night. the Master finding quarters elsewhere. There was no doubt she caused a deal of con- fusion in the infirmary, and the next morn- ing the Master called the committee and they heard his story. He asked that the three nurses might be suspended: but the commit- tee did not agree to that. Having in view, however, the strange conduct of Nurse Armi- tage. they passed the following resolution That this committee is of opinion that Nurse Armitage should be asked to take her holidays from June 25th until recalled." They thought it might l>e probable that she would not be re- called. and that it was desirable that she should go away altogether for a change from the scenes of her trouble. The committee afterwards went to see Nurse Broughton and Mrs. Randall and himself informed her that if the Master's orders were not obeyed all the nurses would of necessity be suspended. The Master. Mr. Phillips continued, could not go anywhere but what the superintendent nurse dogged his footsteps. It was practically of no avail for the committee to speak to Nurse Broughton. She evaded the questions every time she was spoken to. He (Mr. Phillips) ultimately told her that he would not discuss the matter with her any more. Nurse Jones was called in and asked presumptuously. What are the Master's orders?" and she was told that whatever his orders were they were not for her to question, but to obey. When they spoke about suspension, she came round a bit. The committee found Nurse Thomas preparing to go away; the affair was too much for her. They eventually talked her round, and tokllwr it w ould be verv much better now if she stayed. At last she con- sented to do so. A nurse from Cardiff, to take the place of Nurse Armitage, was sent for. and she had been in the institution ever since. Mr. T. C. Jones moved that the action of the committee be confirmed. — Agreed. The Rev. H. Eynon Lewis said he under- stood the whole point of the matter, which appeared to be the crux of the situation, was that the superintendent nurse refused to obey the Master. Replying to a question, the Cle k said the Guardians had no pawer to suspend the superintendent nurse. The Rev. T. 11. Phillips: Now. I raise the question of the action the Board proposes to take, and I move that weL ask the Local Gov- ernment Board's consent to dismiss the super- intendent nurse. I shall be glad to have a Local Government Board inquiry, and the quicker the better. The reason I am mov- ing in this direction is that the Local Govern- ment Board will then take the necessary steps to hold an inquiry here. I The Clerk They will ask for your reasons before doing so. Rev. T. B. Phillips: We have them ready, and I .will include in my motion that the rea- sons for asking for her dismissal be set out in the letter to the Local Government Board. Rev. H. E. Lewis seconded. It was a great pity the Board was handicapped in this mat- ter. It would have facilitated things very much and tended to retain order if the Guar- dians had had power to dismiss vested in them. He knew there were reasons why those powers should not be conferred upon Guardians, but he was of opinion that they should have a good clearance from the insti- tution get the weeds cleared away, and start de novo. Mr. T. W. Job asked what were the reasons that were to be given to the Local Govern- ment Board. (Hear, hear.) I Rev. T. B. Phillips: I take it we gave the reasons in the findings of the committer when we asked the superintendent nurse 1 II revgi..

Mr. Michael Da vies said the resolution pro- posed did not take the form of asking for a Local Government Board inquiry. Would it not be better for the Board to hold a board of i 11 q n i ry Mr. D. II, Price: Would not an inquiry follow in due course!' The Clerk: Yes. Rev. T. B. Phillips: The committee has not met this morning. I am quite prepared to fall in with the suggestion made by Mr. Michael Davies. Mr. Michael Davies: I don't care what form the inquiry takes. The Chairman: Alter having their officer's report, the Local Government Board would hold an inquiry. The Clerk they will require you to formu- late the charges against the nurse in the first instance. Mr. T. W. Job: You are going to formulate these charges and send them to the Local Government Board before the Board knows what they are. The Chairman: The matter was first raised last October, and the recommendation then was that if a repetition of such conduct oc- curred the Board would call upon the super- intendent nurse to resign. I think the mem- bers know the position of affairs. Mr. T. W. Job: I don't trv to defend the superintendent nurse at all. but I df) protest against sending charges to the Local Govern- ment Board before this Board knows what it is doing. I have speaking to members, and three-quarters of them do not know what the charges are. It is an insult to us as members that we should be asked to pass a resolution asking the Local Government Board to dismiss a nurse without knowing what for. I oppose the motion, and shall do so until I know what the charges are. That is the only thing I have against the motion. I have sat on committees, and the whole things have been laid before the Board. Now this committee has been sitting, and they appear to think that the Guardians are not fit to hear the charges, and that the com- mittee proceedings are private property. It comes before tiie Board ? Ivi numbers Its charges. They are bj-ovght up again to-day o.h not n single t:<. Rev. T. B. Phillips iaid the charges L *1 'E:"WF. Rev. D. G.
