Milford Haven Urban Council.
Milford Haven Urban Council. VISITORS AND A GUIDE BOOK. MILFORD AND COUNTY COUNCIL HEPHESETATIOX. The monthly meeting ol tee Minora Haven oouncu was held on Friday evening, when there were present: Mr W. Hire (chairman). Dr. Griffith, Col. Roberts, Messrs John Reee, C. T. Blethya, G. S. Kelwav, D. G. Jones, J. L1. Davies, T. G. Hancock, and A. S. Chugg. GAS AND WATER WORK. The gas and water works committee reported that on the 28th June last they hud occasion to pay cff the men and stop the work at tho new service reservoir, that since that date they h id obtained the material required and have made arrangements with Messrs Pueips be Owens to complete the bottom of the reservoir, which was all of the concrete woik remai.-iic.g to be finished. The committee recomnieuded that .Messrs R. Laidlaw & Sons tender for the water mains at £ •> IDs til and £ ti 2s lid (is and Gs per ton respectively) be accepted. Mr Kelway asked why Messrs Laidlaw's tender had been accepted in preference to Messrs Jordan?, Ltd., which was Is per ton lower in CGoh ehas. The Chairman replied that, the Council having had woik done by this firm, nrl. the amount concerned being a small one, they thought it advisable to give the tender to the tirm recommended. Mr Hancock asked what arrangements had been made with Messrs Phelps k Owens with regard to the water works. Mr J Ll, Davies explained that Messrs Phelps & Owens consented to employ the necessary labour for the work and to certify their time, and the Council would pay them as before. A couple of masons would be required. Mr Davies added that he was pleased to say that the bottom- laving had been commenced and Mr Owens estimated thxt he would be able to complete the whole thing in ten or twelve days. ALLEGED ILLEGAL CONSUMPTION OF GAS. Mr D. G. Jones referred to the decision of the Council to summon two people in respect of alleged illegal con- Bumption of gas. lie asked whether it was correct that only one person ha 1 been served with a summons. The Clerk replied that Mr Jones was perfectly right. I Further investigation was made into the case, and it was found that the alleged offence took place on January ltith last. Mr R. T. P. Williams, who had the matter in hand, had advised the council that proceedings must be taken within six months. The summons against Mr Martin was therefore barred by statute. Mr Hancock remarked that to only take proceedings against a woman was ¡jot tempering justice with inercy. Tha Chairman said that immediately the matter was reported to the Council they took action. Unfortunately the case against Mr Maltin was barred by the Statute of Limitation, and it was impossible to get over ir. lie failed to see what other course the council could have adopted. Mr Jones asked if the committee were previously of opinion that Mr Martin could be summoned. The Chairman Yes. Dr Giiffith thought that in a case like that, where legal proceedings were to be taken, the council should not ex- press an opinion nnd prejudge the case. The committee's report was then adopted. SANITARY. The sanitary committee reported that they had approved of the sanitary arrangements shewn on the following plans, and recommended their adoption by the Council :-Housc proposed to be built by Mr E. E. Car- ter, Creat Noith Road ditto by Mr E. John, Priory Road ditto by Mr II. Merchant, Priory Road. The committee also recommended that the Inspector be granted a fortnight's leave of absence. THE GAS UNDERTAKING. T e Local Government Board gave notice of au enquiry to be held into the council's application for sanction to borrow £ 711 for the purposes of the gas UU4 dertaking. THE XAYAL BASE. A letter from Mr F. W. Merriman stated that it had been decided not to call a meeting with regard to the question of urging the claims of Milford Haven as a naval base until after the next meetirtg of the County Council. COUNTY COUNCIL REPRESENTATION. In reply to Dr Griffith, the Cleik mentioned that he had received no further reply from the Local Govern- ment Board with regard to the division of MUford Haven, so as to allow for increased county council re- presentation. Dr Grifrith thought (In council should press for au answer, as the matter was very urgent. They were j entitled to three representatives on the county council, and they should certainly have two at an eaily date. He dared say they bad heard of the question of sub- sidies, which had again been brought forward, and at the last meeting of tne Main Roads Committee a deputa- tion wa3 received from the Rural District Council on the subject. He referred to the main road leading from Haverfordwest to Coombs, and said that the great argu- ment all along had been that where there was a railway station a main road should lead to it. (Hear, hear.) If the main roads iu the county were to be increased, he thought Milford had a gool claim to have the road mained from Coombs to the railway station. He should very much like to have another representative from kllilforil on ilie county council, as at present he had to fight their battles single-handed. All through this con- troversy he had never lost sight of the interest due to his constituents. lIe hoped the Milfoid Council would follow Haverfordwest, and send a deputation to the main roads committee. The Chairman The Local (iovernmcnt Board seems to think it most difficult to divide this district. Dr Griffith It seems to me to be the simplest thing possible. P(DLIC IMPROVEMENTS. The highways, lighting and public improvements committee recommended that notices to pave, kerb and channel be served on Messis Griffiths, Osvston & Davies, owners of premises frolltil1[, adjoining or abutting on Hospital Road, and on Mr Tom Barrett in respect of premises fronting, adjoining or abutting on Priory Road, to pave, kerb and channel the same within three months. -;I,io-pted. GUIDE BOOK XEEDED. The Clerk sam he bad received applications for an illustrated guide book from Manchester and Croydon He added that he was continually receiving applications of the s 'rt, and he had nothing to forward in reply in the way of a guide, pointing out the beautics that could be seen from the town and the surrounding neighbourhood. Of course the difficulty was for the council to bear the expense of publishing a guide book without special authority to do so. The Chairman asked the Council if they thought it necessary to publish a guide book for visitors. Mr Kelway You cannot get it without the money. The Chaifman I think there are ways and means of getting over it. I ileP. the Estates Company have com- menced to do up Scotch 1 iy e. On the motion of Mr Keiw?y. seconded by Mr Chugg, the matter was referred to the highways and public improvements committee to bring up a recommendation. THE AGO >MMODATIOX ROADS AGAIN. I Colonel Roberts, in accordance with notice, moved that the council rescind their resolution deciding to have the accommodation roads made up with limestone setts with a channel in the centre. Colonel Roberts said he had reason to believe that some of those who supported the resolution two months ago had now rc-considered the matter and were prepared to retrace their footsteps. The Colonel alluded to the expense of carrying out the recom- mendation and said that one of its effects would be to raiso the rents of the tenants of the houses in these places. [t would therefore place a severe tax on those who had Struggled hard to c-ffect the freehold of their property. Apart from that, however, he felt justified in asking the council to rescind the resolution it only because it was carried by a bare majority and one councillor who supported it then bad since assured him that he would not have done so had he realised the hardships that would have been inflicted upon many people of the town. Dr. Griffith said he had not attended that evening to take up that question, but he would second it for the sake of discussion, as he considered it a matter which should be very seriously considered. He had not seconded the resolution with a view to putting money in his own pocket, or with the object of saving money, as he had very few accommodation roads at the present time, as the majority of them had been sold to numerous people who would be calicd upon to pay. lie quite agreed that the accommodation roads should be put in a better state of repair. In some cases they were very insanitary at the present time, but-atthough he was prepared to admit that Milford had shown a pattern in many respects-ho did not think that in any other town in South Wales would property owners be called upon to bear that expeuse. He reminded the council that they would have to go to very great expense shortly to drain the town, and the drainage would have to be carried through most of the accommodation roads that they were now to improve. The result would be that it would be necessary to replacc them all. If the roads were put in a fair con- dition he thought it would be suiHcient, for the council should have some regard for those who had laid out their money in building or in buying houses. To call upon reopta?to put down limestone setts and afterwards to remove them for purposes of drainage be considered very unjust. Dr. (rriHith also remarked that there were back roads which contained cesspits, and were there with the sanction of the sanitary authority. If the council only requested to have the roads put in a proper sanitary con- dition he did not think anyone would complain of it. Mr Kelway said he had not heard anything from the proposer or seconder of the m ,ti,)!] to justify the rescind- ing of the resolution, which bad been before the council for about two years. The council had had ample time to consider the matter, and he hoped those who voted for the resolution two months ago would support it now and thus show that they really meant what they did. With regard to Dr. Griffith's remarks concerning a possible drainage scheme, only a portiou of the sctts would have to be taken up, and this would equally apply to any other surface which was laid down. No one bad ever suggested j any other satisfaetorv method of dealing with these roads. Colonel Roberts I did so at the last meeting. Mr Kelway You suggested it, but you didn't bear it out how it could be done. You said you thought this and the other, but on enquiry it was found they would be equally as costly as that decided upon and not nearly so durable. Colonel Roberts Not at all. Mr Kelway That is the result of investigations. Mr Hancock We have not yet heard the cost. Mr Ketwjy replied that the cost was h per yard for the whole frontage, which meant 2s for each house on eithsr side. Continuing Mr Kelway said that if the either ai d e. Air Ke!way said that if the resolution was rescinded Colonel Roberts was to propose another, and he noticed that it contained the words That the work be done to the satisfaction of the surveyor." The effect of that would be to give the committee a free hand, and the committee had come to the eoHclusion that the only way to deal with the roads was in the manner proposed, and if Colonel Roberts had found some turn- coats he did not think they were members of the com- naittee. It they gave the committee a free hand, perhaps next year some ot the members would not do anything at all, and theretore a hardship would have been inflicted on those who had this year carried out the improvement and paid for it. Mr Chagg expressed dislike to the term turn-coat." He said 1 e was on the committee and voted for the recommendation, but did not quite understand the mean- ing of the-wbolr, tliitlg. When Col. Coberts afterwards expressed the opinion that they would io some cases have hard rock to deal with, and that would be very expensive, he wondered if they could not devise some other scheme. He believed it was said that macadam would be only about half the price. He asked If it was iutcuded to remove the cesspit*. I DAYLIGHT ROBEERY." I Mr Jones bcleivea it was agreeu that the accommoaa- tion road needed attention, and considering that the highway committee had considered the matter on two occasions, he thought the council must give them credit for having gone so carefully and fully into it. He himself had had to struggle to acquire a freehold, and he would still struggle to pay another £ 2 or £ 3 if it would I.e for the benefit of the health of his wife and children. He was glad to hear from Dr. Giiffith that it would not mean in hi., case ;).1 increased rent. To iucreaso the already exorbitant rents Id a week, or 17s Gel as had been suggested, for a c:tpital expenditure of £2 or £ ■> was to his mind nothing less than daylignt robbery. He ehould certaialy support Mr Kelway.. The Chairman said that although this matter had been before the Council for years, owners of property con- cerned had done nothing, but had left the roads from one eud of the town to the other in a most neglected state. Owners of property did not seem to realise that it was part of their work to do up the roads, and the highway committee had given the matter serious consideration month after month. The decision arrived at was the only one that commanded itself to them, but he thought it would be only fair it the council offered to do the work at so much per home or yard. If there were people who could not afford to pay the E2 or £ 3 at once, no doubt the council would allow them six or nine months in which to do it. He denied that it was intended to injure the workingclasses in any way. Three only voted for the rescinding of the resolution, and the motion was therefore lost.
Skin Diseases and Their Cure.
Skin Diseases and Their Cure. There is no need to tell those who suiter from itching skin diseases how terribly distressing they are and how extremely difficult to cure Difficult that is, if the right medicine is not used. There is a thorough," safe and certain cure for them, as this statement proves: Nearly i/sarx after her daughter's cure, Mrs L. Hanley, Iii, Common-lane, Factory-lane, Doncaster, said My little girl has never had a sign of the rash appear since Down's Ointment cured her, some years ago. It is indeed a splendid preparation, and I always give it the highest praise when I am asked about it. The following is the statement in which Mrs Hundley told of her daughter's etire For a long time my little girl suffered with a pimply rash on her face, arm and legs, which must have been very painful and irritating, for the child was nearly always rubbing the places, and they would bleed and spread. "Heading about Doau's ointment, I sent for some to try, and I am pleased to say it quickly gave my daughter relief. In a month or so every sign of the trouble had gone. I am deeply grateful for the splendid cure Doau's Ointment has effected, and I shall certainly recommend it (Signed) Louisa Handley." You need not continue to suffer the tortures of piles, shingles, or eczema, or itching skin diseases if you will cllly use Doan's Ointment. Try it for yourself it will merely cost you a penny stamp to do so send this, your name and address to us 'see below), and we will send you a free sample. Doan's Ointment is two shillings and ninepence a pot (six pots for thirteen shilling:, and ninepence.) Of all chemists and stores, or post free on receipt of price, direct from Foster- If eC lellan Co., 8, Wells-street, Oxfoid-street London, W. Be sure you get the same kind of ointment as Mrs Handley had.
Town Improvements Com-I mittee.…
Town Improvements Com- mittee. -1 STARTING TO WORK. COLLECTORS APPOINTED. The Town Improvements Committee have started work, and the enthusiasm with which the movement has been begun augurs well for its success. There was a large attendance at the first meeting on Wednesday night last, when the Rev. D. Aki ill Jones was elected chairman, and collectors appointed to solicit subscriptions. At the outaet Mr Isaiah Reynolds presided, and there were also Prusent :-Rev. C. M. Phelps, Rev. D. Akrill Jones, Messrs James Rees, T. M. Phillips, W. Thomas (liridge-street), David Davies, Bisley II. Munt, J. W. Phillips, J. L. Jenkins, F. Lmgford, T. H. Jones, Joseph Jones, W. E. C. Lewis, LI. Brigstocke, John Evans, W. F. Tnomas, A. J. Wright, Arthur Lewis, C. Sidney Davies, David Rees, Sidney J. Evans, and Sidney J. flees. APPOINTMENT OF CHAIRMAN. The first business was the appointment of chairman, and Mr Isaiah Reynolds said it would give him the greatest pleasure to act as chairman to that excellent committee, especially as the objects they had in view he had so much at heart, but he did not think it desirable that a member of the Town Council should be chairman of that committee. By holding it he would in a sense be tilling a double capacity, and perhaps the Committee would have a great deal to do in stimulating and encouraging the Town Council to further improvements, b'or that reason he thought it would be better to appoint a chairman from outside the Council altogether, as it would largely depend oil the chairman and secretary how matters are carried out. Rev. C. M. rhelps: You don't mean to suggest that the Town Council and this Committee are goiug to be antagonistic, or that we are over-critical ? Mr Reynolds I hope not. Mr LI. Brigstocke thought it would be an advantage to have as chairman a gentleman who was a member of the Town Council. He would be in a position to bring a little pressure to bear on the Corporation occasionally with regard to improvements. The feeling of the meeting was in favour of Mr Reynolds being chairman of the committee, but Mr Reyuolds repeated his objections, at the same time pro- mising to do everything in his power to promote the improvements. On the motion of Mr James Rees, seconded by Mr F. Langford, the Rev. D. Akrill Jones was then voted to the chair. On taking the chair, Mr Jones promised to give the object every support, but with such an excellent com- mittee he was sure his duties would be very light. THE SECRETARY. Mr Sidney J. Rees proposed, and Mr Muut seconded, that Mr \V. G. Rowlands be asked to act as secretary. Mr Isaiah Reynolds remarked that Mr Rowlands was not present, but being a member of the Town Council he was handicapped in the same way as himself. Mr James flees failed to see that the objection applied, but Mr Reynolds thought it better to keep ch ar of the Town Council, because a man outside the Council would be able to act with iiiole independence. To a certain extent the hands of a iliember of the Town Council would be tied. The Chairman said he did not know if it would be an advantage to have a member of the Town Council to act as secretary, because he would be able to speak authorit- atively on any matters which the Committee might wish to bring before the Council. Mr Reynolds said that in a conversation he had with Mr Rowlands, the latter had suggested an outsider, Continuing, Mr Reynolds said that Mr W. E. C. Lewis would make an excellent secretary. Mr Lewis had had a considerable experience of this kind of work, and at the public meeting he threw out a valuable suggestion. Mr Lewis said he was willing to do anything on behalf of the town, and he was willing to act as secretary until Mr Rowlands, who was a more experienced man than himself, gave a final answer. He would prefer that Mr Rowlands accepted the appointment, but meanwhile he was willing to act. It was then agreed that Mr Lewis should be appointed hon. secretary pro teui. SOLICITING SUBSCRIPTIONS. The question of soliciting subscriptions was next dis- cussed. The Chairman thought the Committee should more definitely define their position before they proceeded to solicit subscriptions. His experience was that people desired to know definitely the purpose to which money was to be devoted before they subscribed. Mr Isaiah Reynolds thought the best course would be to divide the town into districts in order to collect subscriptions for the various walks. Subscriptions could be ear-marked for particular walks and by doing this they would secure unity for people could then give for the improvement of their favourite walk. Since the last meeting he had been considering that scheme, and he thought it would be a good way out of any difficulty. Those who were appointed collectors could ask the people on whom they called as to what walk or walks they desired their subscription to be devoted, or whether they p-ererred it going to the general fund. In this way they would please everybody and iind out the most popular walk in Haverfordwest. If they asked for money for the Scotchwell, perhaps some people would say that they had a walk nearer home to which they would prefer to subscribe. Mr Jenkins thought before collecting any money they should get an estimate as to how much the work would cost. Mr Reynolds I consider every walk in Haverfordwest nesds improving. (Laughter). Mr T. H. Jones differed from Mr Reynolds in the ear- marking of the subscriptions. If they did that, perhaps they would not have enough money to complete any one walk. Mr James Rees suggested getting estimates for repair- ing the Scotchwells, the Parade, and the Frolic. The Chairman They are the most popular walks and require most attention. Mr I Reynolds adhered to his motion to ear-mark the subscriptions according to the subscribers' wishes. lie did not think it would be wise to appoint a sub-com- mittee to ?o into the question of estimates. The com- ::1lttee migbt say that they would need £ .>0 to improve bS cotjcnwelU, and that depended on what conception the cou?uttM Imd of improving the wa!k. He did not think it would be possible to get sufficient money to improve all the walks immediately. They would be able to go on improving the walks year after year, but they ought to start immediately, although they would not be able to do much this year. Mr LI. Lrigaioc^ tre seconded Mr Reynolds' resolution, aud suggested that application be made to Perrott's Trustees for a smah subscription. He also thought that application should be made to those who had left the town, some of whom had made their money in Haver- fordwest. At Carmarthen a great many of the seats and entrance gates had been presented by former residents. Mr W. F Thomas asked it the committee were not magnifying what was merely a casual remark made at the public meeting. Py adopting Mr Reynolds' re- solution they would bo soggestin p n, dimnutty to the sub- senbers. He was sure the public had confidence in the committee as to the wise distribution of the money. If they made the suggestion referred to, they would be introducing a kind of competition into the business. Mr Reynolds That is what we want. Mr Ihomas If that is what we want, we get the up and down town" difficulty. As a committee we represent the whole town, and I would propose an amendment that collectors be appointed for collecting for the walks of the town. Mr Thomas added that the committee might arrange for the holding of a concert later on, the receipts to be devoted to the beautifying of the town. Mr Sidney J. Rees seconded, remarking that the com- mittee were there to improve the walks of the town generally, and not to promote a spirit of competition I between the up and down parts of the town. Mr T. H. Jones said the committee ought to start work at once, else the public would not be willitig to subscribe. Mr D. Edward Thomas said there was a good deal to be said in favour of Mr Reynolds' motion, because if they applied to Perrot's Trustees, for a grant they would have to ear-mark it for purposes iuside the borough. Mr James Recs referred to the time when the whole of the Frolic was repaired by public subscriptions. Mr Munt: And we were ordered off Scotchwells, so we had better not say too much about Scotchwells. Mr W. F. Thomas's amendment was carried by a large majority. TO COLLECT SUBSCRIPTIONS. Mr J. W. Phillips believed there was a balance in hand from the unemployed fund, and Mr Isaiah Reynolds said ho expected something would he said about the matter at the next meeting of the Town Council. Mr Thomas (Biidge Street) mentioned that he had spoken to a great many ladies about getting up a bazaar, and they were in favour of it. Bazaars in connection with churches and chapels realised £;300 or £ 100, and he saw no leason why the committee should not be able to raise £ 200 l,v this means. Mr Munt said that no doubt a bazaar would realise a great deal of money but it was necessary to start work at once during the fine weather. It was then agreed on the motion of Mr 1. Reynolds, seconded by Mr James Rees, that the town be divided in- to districts and that collectors be appointed for each dis- trict. The following collectors were appointed For Prender- gast, Cartlett, Old Bridge (east side of the liver), Messrs F. Langford, 1. Reynolds, and David Rees. For Picton Place, Victoria Place, Bridge Street, and Quay Street, Messrs F. Phillips, D. Edward Thomas, and Bisley H. Munt. For High Street, Market Street, Hill Lane, Goat Street, Dark Street, and Tower Hill, Rev. D. Akrill Jones, Messrs Sidney J. Rees, and LI. Brigstocke. For St. Thomas Green, Iliil Street, and down to the Merlin's Bridge, Messrs W. F. Thomas, T. H. Jones, and David Davies. For Dew Street, Albert Street, Milford Road, Portfield, Rev. C. M. Phelps, Mr Thomas (Bridge Street), and Mr A. J. Wright. For Barn Street, Spring Gardens, City Road, Perrot's Avenue, Messrs J. W. Phillips, Sidney Davies, and W. L. Jenkins. For Church Street, Holloway, North Gate, Castle Terrace, Gloucester Terrace, Swan Square—Messrs Joseph Jones, Sidney Evans, and Arthur Lewi3. It was decided that the collections should be finished by Saturday, August 10th. Mr A. J. Wright was appointed treasurer. The following gentlemen were added to the com- mittee Mr Bertie Llewellin, Rev. John Phillips (Uzmaston), Rev. E. Nicholson Jones, Rev. Owen Jacobs, Mr Hugh Saunders, Archdeacon Hilbers, Martin Phillips, Dr. Henry Owen, and Mr Rhys (National and Provincial Bank).

Milford Haven Sessions. j WARNING TO NEGLECTFUL PARENTS. The Milford Haven sessions were held on Wednesday last before Dr Griffith, Colonel W. R. Roberts, Messrs J. LI. Davies,JG. H. D. Birt, and Robert Cole. THOUGHTLESS CYCLISTS. William Holland, of the smack Ibex, was summoned for riding a bicycle without a light on June 15. P.S. Phillips said that at nine o'clock on the night referred to he saw defendant riding a bicycle through Charles-street without a light. He refused to dismount when spoken to. His companion was fined at the last court. Defendant, added the Sergeant, was a boy of about 11 years of age. Tho Chairman referred to the dangerous practice of ridiug bicycles without lights, and defendant, who did not appear, was fined Is., costs remitted. TO PUT DOWX BAD LANGUAGE. Charles Friston, a seaman, of the steam trawler, Ernest, was summoned for using bad language. P.S. Phillips told the court that on the night of June 28th, he found defendant in Victoria Road making use of profane and obscene language. On being requested to discontinue his conduct, Friston went away. The Chairman, on being shown a sample of the bad language made use of, characterised it as 11 awful," and as unfit for any woman to hear. Defendant did not appear, and it was said that his vessel had gone to sea that morning. A fine of 10s., including costs, was imposed. The Chairman I hope we shall not have any more bad language reported to us, because I look upon it as the most disgraceful conduct a man can be guilty of. A GOOD ENDING. Hannah Fryatt, of the Drang, Ilakin, was summoned for having been drunk and disorderly on July 6th. P.S. Phillips proved the case, mentioning that defen- dant was very drunk and disorderly in the Drang, and making use of very bad language to a neighbour. Defendant was said to have been before the court in January last. I'.S. Phillips mentioned that defendant's son was now married to the daughter of the neighbour to whom de- fendant was making use of bad language. (Laughter.) Fined 03 and costs. MORE BAD LANGUAGE. William Yonds, of the steam trawler Reginald, of Milford, was fined 10s including costs for making use of bad language on the Hearts of U-tk Square. DRUNKENNESS. I Samuel Parrett, seaman, of Priory Hill, was fined 2s 6d and costs for having been drunk and incapable on the Victoria Bridge. P.O. Evans proved the case, and said that defendant was taken home by a comrade. George Heulan, a skipper living in Warwick Road, Milford, was charged with drunkenness in Point Street, Hakin. P.O. Warlow proved the case, and defendant who did not appear, was fined 2s Gd and costs. TRESPASSING ON THE DOCKS. An adjourned case was that in which three boys named Walter Joy, Robert Street; John Evans, rill; and Wellard Forrest, Pill, were charged with tresspassing on the Docks. The case was heard a month ago. The Docks Sergeant said he had not received any com- plaint against the boys since the adjourment, but as they did not now appear the case was adjourned for another fortnight to enable notice to be served upon them to secure their attendance. WARNING TO DEFAULTING PARENTS. Thomas John, labourer, Thornton, was summoned for nelecting to send bis child regularly to school. Mr Collins, school attendance oinccr, gave the attendance as lOo out of 200. The magistrates retired to consider the case, and the Chairman afterwards announced that the charge against John would be adjourned to the next court. He added that cases of this description would be very differently treated from what they had been in the past. Parents were obliged to send their children to school up to a certain age, but if illness or any other good cause prevented their attendance no fine of course would be imposed. Cases not coming under that description, however, would be very differently treated.
