{CHANCE FOR OLDER MEN CAll UP SUSPENDED UNTIL JULY 6H1 j A statement was issued on Friday night by the Secretary of the Ministry of National Service on the schemes for en- f raiment of men as war-work voluntoers | lin(I war agricultural volunteer- These proviried that a ll1;tn cannot be enrolled as a war-work volnnteftr if he is aduaily under can for military eer-vice, arl that an application for enrolment as a vrar agricultural volunteer cannot be accepted from a, jaaa if iii, is actually uiKier call for military service before lie makes his application far enrolment. Tho. Minister of National Service has | decided, ho-n eveT, to 91VIC men of the new military a^e who may be under call a fnllor opportvmitr of enrolling. The -í'3ct that a man is under call fcr militai-y ser- f vi will not. up to and including July 6. prevent the acceptance of his enrolment as a volunteer if he is otherwise qualified for enrolment* provided that where a man ia due to report for military service be- fore JuIt C he enrols or applies for enrol- ment on or before the actual date on which, he is due to report for service. A man oi the new military age who -wishes to tike advantage of either of the ■schemes but who has received a callin^r- up noti:, should, if he desires to offer for enrolment as a war work volnnttcr, apply at once to the nearest Employment Hxeaange. No man can be enrolled until he has been acceptcvi by an employer to fill a definite vacancn- for the em- I t'lloyment of a volunteer is autboriicd. MODE CF PROCEDURE, Inth-e ezise ot any man who is actus,ih- under call to report for military service on or before July 6, he should, if he is en- rolled as a war work volunteer, retu:-n his calling-up" notice to the offic-, of issue, eritlor.v-d hy an official of the Ex- change. His calling-np notice will then be suspendal for fourteen days to enable him to obtain a cf'rtificue of protection ..ork fo- wh?c h Le after taking up the work for which he fhas enrolled. The same procedure ap- plies in the case of volunteer J for agricul- ture, only in this case the calling-up notice is suspended for one month. No mac. who has been finally refused exemption by a tribunal is eligible for protection either as a war worker or a. war agricultural volunteer. Instruction* have been given that. calling-up notices sh-all not be issued to men of the new military age until ten days after the date on which they are due to report for medi- cal examination. This affords such men, aftsr their medical examination, an op- portunity of ofiviing themselves for en- rolment under the volunteer scheme.

GOWER HAWK STORY. .——— e Losses of Swansea Pigeon Fanciers Explained. Pig^on-f&nci<$in^ Swansea hftve re- cently lost a number of valuable birds by the depredation*' of hawk-?, and last week, by a remarkable coincidence, an owner living at. Ilafod v\"hilst walking near Iiacon Hole Cliff, Cower, at leaet. ten mildg away frovn his home, discovered cer- tain feathers belonging to one of Ms birtls. A l}'j,; luiiit was arranged; the intrepid hunters descended tho cliffs by rcp^s and feet traps on a ledgs inhabited by a brood of i>owcrful havfks or kestrels. They caught hó out of three full-tr^w^young birds, Vrtit the parent, a powerful bird, Eluded them. A touple of days later a farmer, Mr. Edwin Jones, of High Pennard, captured the third bird rvith his liands in a. filld., hi., -I its r-.ttcntkm ahead and it was preserved alive. It was a strong, lusty, and vindictive bird, and it utters loud shrieks with open beak when handled in. a safe, masterly wny. The pigeon-fanciers give, a reward of 10s. in uèh a C:1M. In the eyrie were found two partially-ef.ten trlbHt. A brood of such "birds would play hnvoe amonsRt the pigeons and prfultn- of a neighbourhood, w-rtd tl^*3r seem piirticr.iarly keen on ex- pensive ptjfcor.F.

CÕMMERGE-OF THE BAY SOUTH WALES MARKETS.
