I On llth ult., a most successful entertainment was held in the parish of Llandilo-Gr&ban, in aid of the funds of the Red Cross, when the school- room was packed to over-Sowing. Great credit was due to the young men of the parish who formed the committee and who spared no pains to ensure the success of the concert and to the kind friends who came from immense distances to give their valuable and much appreciated services. The re- suit was a most enjoyable evening to all concerned a.nd the substantial sum of over .E7 to be handed over to the deserving cause. Major E.
