i OUR NOBLE DEADl IMPRESSIVE DRUMHEAD SERVICE AT SWANSEA Sunday's drumhead service for the I fallen, held at Victoria Park, Swansea, will Dot soon be forgotten by those who were present. On each Palm Sunday for some years pa?t the service has been held at the park in memory of those who fell in the Boer War, and later, of those who have fallen in the present struggle.

Ben JonJes, that grand old veteran, General Sir James Bills-Johiies; V.C., Major Perkins, Lieut.-Commander Buck- ridge. Lieut. John Hodgens, O.B.E., kinfi others. The service was brief, but during that one half-hour, the air was pregnant with the electrifying tire of deep patriotism.. Our men are facing death on the fie,ld" of Flanders,said the chaplain. Britain, mighty Britain, is being menaced. But we are unafraid." One of the bands struck up the opening bars of Onward, Christian Soldiers," and in the glorious splendour of the morning sun the huge concourse offered up their supplication We a.re assembled here to-day," wenti ort the ehanitiii, "under conditions of [' Igieat anxiety. We believe our Might is Eight, and our principles are bound to prevail." The speaker referred to the large number of Swansea men who bad m:y.le' the supreme sacrifice, and added. Greater love hath no man They died for Britain, for you, for-me," Maid the chaplain. J Forming a. part of the square were the Bit-Badg-e men. the very apotheosis of that living wall, and further along stood ii party of Lancashire Fusiliers, many of whom had seen service in France. Then there were the Naval lade, excellent types of the men who go down to the sea in ships that Britain mght be free. Prior to the sermon. General Sir James HiUs-Johnes decorated two soldiers. The firs-t, Sergt. Isaacs, of 119, Robert-street, Mansolton, received the Military Medal and Bar for distinguished conduct during critical operations. The second, Corpora'; Burton. of 19.

COCKLES AS FOOD. Value of South Wales Beds. Important proposals regardina the fu- ture of the South Wales cockle industry were made at Saturday's meeting of the South Wales Sea Fisheries District Coou- mrttcf. Aid. J. Jordan presided. The clerk said the committees are in- cluded one of the finest st retches of oyster beds in Great Britain. Eighty years'ago Tenby was well known for its oysterp. The worst enemy was the public fear of pollution, and it was tliis fa-et that pre- vented 8\11 a demand as would. mable all inshore fblwrmen gtti n b thedr living by dredging for shell fish. In cockles' they had a foo(l that far exceeded one's ■anticipation as to quantity. In normal +1 me,s about :ioo tons a month were de- ppatched by train f-roni Ferryside a lone, where about 100 persons earned a living bv cockling; at Penclawdd the number engaged was 250. The clerk went on to recommend that the areas to be sown in the w.ntpr should comprise the mouth of Ogmore river, ttief mouth of Kentig River. Swansea Bay. Ox. wioh Bay, Llansteplian, T^augharue, Ten. hr. East Bay, Angle, Pwllcrechan, Fish- guard, and Newport. 'I'he coinniitteo decided that cockles .hould be sown in all thc-e treic-, that mussels be planted in suitable plac, and that steps be taken to follow. America's example with regard to hatcheries for lobsters. ?r. C'rawford Heron sacd that ?ith tlirpe-hali'penny-worth of cockles his wifn oould cook a good luncheon, and otbct, members also expressed the view thai there was no cheaper or more nutritious food-than th.e cockle. Complainus were made of the railwiy rates charged for the carriage of Mumble# oysters. The clerk said much lower rates were charged elsewhere. He had drawn the attention of the Fisheries Board to the subject, but could get nothing from them beyond a formal acknowledgment. I Printed and Published by the Bwansea Press.

? SWANSEA'S GREAT CHANCE. • i'rofeiisor Davidge's concluding lecture of the series on Electricity and National t i'rogress," given in the Minor Albert Hail on Friday evening, dealing as it did with the vital question of 1,,cd production, was | ■' 1 istened to with closest u?t&rc-t by a large audience. Col. Sinclair presided, t Concluding his iecturc, Prof. D.ividge r e ad the following unofficial letter from vSir A. T. Davies (Welsh Department of the Board of Education): I will thank you to convey to Swan- sea and my many friends there, my per- sonal congratulations on securing from the Royal Commission so emphatic an en-I dorsement of the borough's claims to a place in the sun." I look for great re- hults from the Commission's findings, espe- ) t-ially so far as Swansea is concerned. It is for the municipality and all who -have the welfare at heart-Corpora ton and citizen, shipowner and smelter, producer and consumer, Welshman, Englishman, I and all the <)tlie- Ati-ang<-rs within the gate who have helped to make Swansea what she is to-day, and who doubtless have themselves profited by their connection ttith the boroug-h—to unite id a supreme effort to make the University College of Swansea an accomplished fact, and that, too, without delay. r attain to that, much eelf-saerifiee will, 110 doubt, be II needed, but I feel ofure that it will be forthcoming. To contribute liberally to the College Endowment Fund until it is raised., not to =2100,000. but if need be to ?.1?0,000. should be deemed to b? not merely the duty of the few but thpr? vi- ,?e of the many. t •' ?-ansea will, I am sure, aim at becom- #PI; known, the world over, not merely M tri important metallurgical centre, hut I a;> (and especially in regard, to 1t;, parti- ¡('ubI" industries) as a leading centre for teclxnic.il education of the hig-h't type- a piuce whcr? go?vl brains will always be -ure of a good training, particularly m those departments of education and in- dustry which it is now open to Swansea to make, in a very real sense, her own, and to lift on to a distinctly high plane with advantage to herself and Wales and to the Empire of which v.-e are proud to form a part. I I'ope therefore that the county borough will be content with nothing second-rate: the best profc-sors, the best equipment, and then the best resuits-- that and nothing less should be the aim from the start. The day of small things is now over for Swansea, and the day o* great opportunity has at last dawned."
