GELLIGAER FOOD CONTROL i COMMITTEE.
GELLIGAER FOOD CONTROL COMMITTEE. A meeting of the Gelligaer Food Control Committee was held on Thursday, Councillor B. Hr.ahes in the chair, when it wan decided to in- crease the wages of Mr Norman L. Price, a clerk at the food ofifces, from a3j. to aS/- per week. The Executive Officer (Mr Fietehere Davies), reported that with the issue of the new ration books they h-id re- ceived a large number of appi cations for permission to transfer from cue retailer to another, the chief reason given for the applications being that, applicants were dissatisfied with the quantity and quality of the rationed food. The Executive Officer pointed out that there was no advantage in transferring, and had only grahtcrd transfers in cases of real necessity.— Mr Ben Edmunds, Gilfach, remarked that there was considerable lack of information on the part of coniiumers ia regard to the rationed commodities, meat for example. People did not seem to realise that they were'only entitled to a certain quantity, acid he thoaght it advisable to explain the position. The Chairman said that a peculiar indifference was manifested by people with regard to the regu- lations, not one customer in 50 filled ap the forms-they left it to the tradesman. Children who had left school were unable to fill up the ration books properly.-ldr H. Brown: B.A. cannot do it." It was decided to issue posters showing the value of the various coupons.-The Executive Officer reported that the position in regard to the supplies of fresh milk was rather .erionl. The normal supplies amounted to 1,200 gallons per day, but at the moment there were not 500 gallons being retailed. He bad written 'to the Commissioner on the matter and was waiting a reply. A redeeming featuie was that a fair quantity of unsweetened full cream milk was coming into the area. The Chairman advocated that some Bcheme should be evolved which would ensure a preference for children in the supply of condensed milk. The Executive Officer explained that he was instructed about 2 months ago to draw up such a scheme, but be was informed by the Ministry that they were not prepared to sarotion such scheme—Mr Ben Edmunds moved that they again communicate with the Divisiorasi Commissioner with the view of getting a schema of priority for children. He could not understand the Ministry giving the committee such power over frt-sh milk, and curtail their power ia reT gard to condensed milk. Mr Edmunds' motion was adopted.The Executive Officcr reported he had obtained figures showing the position of supplies of jam in the area. He found that the weekly quantity re- quired for the authorised ration of 4 oss. per head was 9,500 Ibs, while the estimated quantity available was 2.000 lbs. He was in communica- tion with the Divisional Commissioner asking for an increased supply.—The Executive Offioer reported on the application for an additional supply of vinegar, and said there was need frr an additional monthly quantity of 660 gallons. He had reason to believe that the supply would be forthcoming.
! HUGE COMPLIMENTARY CON-I…
HUGE COMPLIMENTARY CON-I CERT AT BARGOED. An excellent concert, complimen- tary to Mr T. B. W. Lewis, the well- known musician, and conductor of the Apollo Glee Singers, the Bargot d and New Tredegar Male Voice Parties, was given at Calfaria Chapel, Bar- goed, on Thursday evening when there was a large attendance. The artistes were -Soprano, Madame Bessie Morris, Ammanford; Contralto, Miss Myfanwy Walters, New Tre- degar Tenor, Mr Todd Jones, Tre- j herbert; Bass, Mr W. D. Bowen, Bargoed j tElocotionilt, Chandos Accompanist, Miss L. Gabriel, Bar- goed. Needless to say such a gal- axy of ftrpt-olass singers were bound to render a programme of delightful music whieh would be worthily ap- preciated. The highest complirment that can be paid the artistes is that each maintained his and her reputa- tion and thereby produced a standard of merit worthy of the occasion. Many of the songs and duets captiv- ated the audience who never failed to render hearty and meritorious appro- bation.—Dr. T. E. Richards, J.P., presided and paid a glowing tribute to the sterling services that Mr T. R. W. Lewis had rendered to the community iq general, and to numerous charitable otijfNta fc*p«tlemlar. Ifr Lewie, be very properly pointed out, was modest and unpretentious. He had hoped to see him present so that they might give him a rousing cheer befitting an event organised in his honour. Mr Lewis had sacrificed a great deal for charily, and no one in the district had done more than he in that direction. Dr. Richards surveyed Mr Lewis' interesting, useful, and successful oaret-r as a musician and choir eonduotor, a record which showed rare genius and versatility. He quoted from the Sr.uth Wales Daily News" and 44 Y Cerddor" (the Welsh Musioal Journal), which stated that Mr Lewis (this is some years ago) was recognised as one of the worthiest sons of the Land of Song." Proceeding, the Chairman referred to the series of successes the Bargoed Male Voice Party had at- tained under his conduotorship.
CORRESPONDENCE. I
CORRESPONDENCE. I WAR BONDS AS THANK. I OFFERING. To the Editor I Sir,-The Gbanceiior of the Ex- chequer has, as you know, definitely decided to continue for the present the issue of National War Bonds. Although the lighting which has broagbt us victory is now happily over, it i: obvious that for many months yet we must live under war ,oonditions. Money, therefore, is re- quired as urgently to-day as in those dark days which have passei. One cannot, however, fail to recognise that the joyous revulsion of feeling- the sense of relief after the intolerable strain of war-will lead many people to think that-relaxation of effort ia now justifiable, and that the steady provision of money for purposes con- nected with the war is not the vitally important and imperative matter whioh, in fact, it in. May I endeavour to diaptl this idea ? Hitherto we have urged people-and most gener- ously have they responded-to buy Bonds to help to win the war. The war. is won I And we weuld now appeal to the public to buy Bonds as an immediate and practical expression of its thankfulness to the men whose gallant deeds and heroic sacrifices have brought us such mag- nificent consummation of our hopes. A deep and passionate gratitude is at present the feeling uppermost within as, Lat us show that thankfulness by buying War Bonds. The money is vitally necessary if we are to main- tain during the difficult times ahead the eame strong ifnancial front that we have presented to the world dur- ing the last four years and more. 25,000,000 a week is still required- not now to win the war but as an ex- pression of our gratitude to those who have won it for ne.-I am, Ac., GEOXGK SUTTON, Director of Publicity, National War Savings Committee, Salisbury. square E.C.4, Nov. 13th. —:e: ————— 'n

GELLIGAER GOVERNORS, I |MEETING.
GELLIGAER GOVERNORS, I MEETING. PECULIAR APPLICATION. 1 Mr J. D. Thomas, J.P, presided at the meeting of the Gelligaer School Governors, at Hengoed, on- Tuesday, when it was reported that the Govern- ment grant in respect to the Boys' School was 1,568, of which 9867 hae been paid to the credit of the Governors. In connection with the girls at- tending the school from the Higher Elementary School, it was stated that it was not in the welfare of the pupil or the school that children of 14 or 15 years of age should be admit- ted. The Headmistress said she desired them at an earlier age, to get a thorough tuition through the various courses of the school training. Two unusual applications for admis- sion to the schools came before the Governors. The first was that of a girl who had won a scholarship at the Maesteg School, but owing to the removal of her parents to Bargoed she was unable to avail herself of i this. She had been admitted to the Hengoed school pending a proposal that Maesteg would pay the fees. The Llynvi Valley Governors now wrote declining to pay the fees. One of the Governors suggested that a bursar should be given, but this was opposed by Aid. J. Edwards, J.P., and Coun. W. Hammond, who con- tended that the bursaries should be given to their own children first.- It was decided to write again to the Maesteg Governors. The second application was from the Brecon authority asking that a boy, whose parents had removed to the ^Gelligaer district, should be admitted tie tta Feogam school on reciprocal arrangement, in the event of any Gelligaer boy removing to the Brecon distriot.-It was stated that the pupil was in the higher forma of the school.—It was decided to admit him, and his fees be met as a bursar. A protracted discussion took place respecting the salaries paid to female and male teachers.—Miss James con- tended that the female teachers were fully entitled to the same salary as the male teachers.—The matter was deferred pending the new county' scale now being drafted. On the application of Mrs. Davies, it was decided to exempt Mr James Davies, Guest-street, Fochriw, from the payment of fees in respect of bis son, who had returned from the Army to resume studies.
'"- - THE COAL SHORTAGE.-
THE COAL SHORTAGE. The Coal Controller moat emphatic- ally warns the public that, in oonse- quence of the cessation of hostilities, there must not be any relaxation of the effort to save coal and light, and to win coal from the mines. The de- manda of our Allies, France and Italy, must for aome time continue to be of a very exaoting character. The fuel situation in this country ia still precarious and domand for ooal is far from being met. It will be im- j possible to materially alleviate the coal situation in the immediate; future. The public are requested,in the i national interest, to continue exerois- j ing the utmost economy in the barn- i ing of fuel and light at the present I time, as they 80 loyally did under a 1 condition of war.
