Randle Dawkins moved, and Mr Hugh Saunders seconded the adoption of the Compensation Authority's report recommending 50 per cent of the maximum levy. An amendment was moved by the Mayor, seconded by Mr R. Sinnett, and supported by Mr William John, that the maximum levy be adopted, but this was defeated by two votes. There was a full bench. Birth Rate Decreasing Death Rate In- crea.-ing.-Daring recent years the birth rate in the Haverfordwest registration district has showa a considerable decline, and the death rate a pro- gressive increase. In 1914 the number of deaths in Haverfordwest and district was 138, in 1915 175, and in 1916, 185. Before the war the average number of births registered was 200. In 1915 it was only 171. and in 1916. 190. The births registered for the quarter just ended were 39, as compared witn 48 for the corresponding period of last year. Explosion oo a k'iljip.-A serious pxplosion occurred a few days a-jo on the steamship Avon Lliedi, owned by Mr W. Coombes, shipbroker, a boat requisitioned by the Admiralty. The boat, con- taining a cargo of petrol, was at Portishead, Bristol, and the donkey-man took a light when attending to the machinery, with the result that a violent ex- plosion occurred, and the man was killed. Chief Engineer Wiicox, Burry Port, and a fireman, were blown into the sea. They were picked up, and removed to the Bristol Hospital suffering from in- juries. Mr Wilcox is a brother to Mr D. J. Wilcox, surveyor, Fishguard. Woman's Tragic Death.—A tragic death occurred in Dew Street on Monday night. It appears that Mrs Jane Morgan, a woman 86 years of age, living alone, took ill on Monday, and Mrs Myron, who bad charge of the old lady, wired to her brother-in-law, Mr James, Cross Inn, Clarbes- ton Road. Mr James arrived in Haverfordwest the same evening and on reaching the house found the door locked. Groans were heard inside, and on gaining entrance, Mrs Morgan was found at the bottom of the stairs unconscious, and bleeding from the mouth. She died the same night. An inquest was held this morning. Deceased was a native of Clarbeston Road. Hill Park.—On Sunday evening two resolutions were submitted to the congregation at the request of the National Free Church Council and carried without any dissentients The first ooncerned Prohibition, and asked the Government to bring in a measure prohibiting the manufacture and sale of alcoholic drinks during the war and for I six months after owing to the extreme urgency of the food question and the duty of those responsible to see that no foodstuff is wasted. The second resolution deprecated Sunday labour and protested against the Government in encouraging it on the grounds that with proper organisation it should be quite unnecessary.

EASTER FISH. I Record Prices at Milford Haven. Considering the present condition of things the supply of fish on the market for the Easter trade has been satisfactory. Cod has been the chief kind available, and everything has realised un- heard-of prices. Good catches of plaice were avail- able on Monday, and whitings have also been a strong line. Monday's prices were Cod, £ 7 10s sprags, X6 10s; codlings, X5; ling, ?5 5s; roker, £ 7; skate, ?7 5s; whitings, X5; plaice, best, XS 10; I small, xG 10s gurnets, 25s per kit; soles, Xii per trunk? turbot, 35s; brill, 25s; and halibut 30s. per sfone. On Tuesday there was a better supply, prices were again very high. Best cod was 98 5s to £ 715s; sprays, X7 2s 6d white pollock, t7; ling, X5 7s 6d; conger, X9 7s 6d roker, zC6 5s skate X7; gurnets, £ 1 7s 6d plaice, X9 per kit; soles dropped to t9 15s per trunk and other prime unchanged. In normal times this week would be the great week of the year in the fish trade, especially Wednesday. A good supply is assured for to-day as boats have arrived overnight, including the first I catch of hake for a long time. 4b. —————

Severe Thunderstorm. I OUTBUILDINGS DAMAGED NEAR I HAVERFORDWEST. A severe thunderstorm broke over the district last Thursday night, but so far as can be ascer- tained the only damage suffered was at Rogeston, where the pine end of a granary belonging to Mr. Thomas was partially distroyed. Attached to the granary is a cowshed, but none of the cattle was injured. The pine end of the granary wag, however, completly knocked down, but the dabaage was not discovered until the following morning, as the building is about 40 yards from the dwelling. Curiously enough a chain which supported a temporary fixture was electrified and smashed to bits.

Easter Monday.—Social and dance at Houghton Schoolroom. Tickets. Is 3d each, including refreshments. To commence at 7-30 p.m. N

Pembrokeshire Quarter: Sessions. __H_ THE UZMASTON ROBBERY. Prisoner Who Says He Can Blow Up German Fleet. Charge Against Travelling Photo- graphic Artist. The Pembrokeshire Quarter Sessions were held at the Shire Hall, Haverfordwest, on Tuesday, before Sir Charles Philipps (chair- j man). MAXIMUM COMPENSATION LEVY. The Compensation and Confirming Committee I recommended that in view of the fact that 13 houses had Jaeeu referred for compensation, that the compensation levy under section 21 I of the Licensing Consolidation Act, 1910, be I fixed at the maximum. This recommendation was adopted. UZMASTON JEWELLERY ROBBERY. William James Horn, 40, a soldier, pleaded guilty to a charge of feloniously breaking and entering the school house at Uzmaston, and feloniously stealing a thimble, silver ear-rings, siver watch, boxwood bracelet, and other arti- cles,- of the value of £16 14s. Mr. Griffith Jones (instructed by Mr. H. J. E. Price), who prosecuted, said the prosecutrix was a schoolmistress at Uzmaston, and on March 2nd she left home for a few days, lock- ing up the house. During her absence the prisoner broke into the house by removing a pane of glass, and icarried away a large quan- tity of jewellery, including a gold bracelet, silver watch, three gold brooches, a gold ring, an imitation pearl necklace, two tie pins, a ring with monogram, a pair of silver ear-drops, and a" gold safety pin. He disposed of a large amount of the jewellery, and these had never been recovered. The excuse made by the pris- oner was that he was in drink at the time, otherwise he would not have committed the robbery. It was a very lame excuse, counsel thought, because a drunken man could not have broken into the house and rumaged in the way the prisoner had done. P.S. Boothey, of the Glamorganshire Con- stabulary, said he had known the prisoner for nine years, and he was an incorrigible thief. He practically lived by thieving. He was in the 3rd Welsh, and had said that he did not intend to be shot by the d- Germans. Wit- ness handed to the bench a long catalogue of crimes for which the prisoner had been sen- tenced. Second-Lieut. Charles Verney Price gave evi- dence as to the prisoner's character since he had been in the 3rd Reserve Batt. Welsh Regi- ment. Since January 12th, when he joined that regiment, he had committed only one or two minor offences. The Chairman read a letter from the pris- oner, in which he pleaded for mercy, stating that he was drunk at the time he committed the offence. He was sorry to say he had been previously convicted of felony, but he was al- ways in drink when he went wrong. He also mentioned that he was a Pembrokeshire man, and this was the first time for .him to be in the hands of the police in his native county. As an extenuating circumstance he stated that he did his best to assist the police in the re- covery of the stolen property. In a second letter addressed to the Chair- man, the prisoner said he had an invention in his head which lie would give to the British Government. He could build an airship which would absolutely defy the Germans to bring down by gun fire, and he could also bring down every Zeppelin that the Germans sent over here. All he asked for was that the British Government would provide him with the necessary material. He would undertake to sink every German battleship in the Kiel Canal within 48 hours, and if he did not suc- ceed in this enterprise he was willing to be shot. If he were pardoned now he would join the R.F.A., and by bringing the war to an early close would save thousands of lives and millions of pounds. The court was greatly amused by the read- ing of this letter, and the Chairman observed "It is a very pretty story." He then proceeded to read a long catalogue of offences for which the prisoner had been sentenced, including a sentence of three years' penal servitude for hous-breaking. It would seem from this list that the prisoner had spent most of his life in gaol. He was now sentenced to 18 months' im- prisonment with hard labour. CHARGE AGAINST A TRAVELLER. I Joseph Jackson (28), described as a traveller, was charged with obtaining by false pretences Lll from William Allen, Oamrose, with intent to cheat and defraud, he stating that he had a shop at Pembroke Dock; and also with ob- taining 96 from Martha Thomas, Roch, under similar circumstances. He pleaded "not guilty" to both charges. Mr. Griffith Jones (in- structed by Mr. A. B. Williams) appeared for the prosecution, and Col. W. J. Jones for the accused. Counsel for the prosecution said it seemed to be a system with the defendant to go round interviewing farmers) in the county offering to enlarge photographs. Often he met with indifference and refusal, but persisted in his endeavour to get an order. In these parti- cular cases he represented himself as a photo grapher from Pembroke Dock. It was a very serious thing for country people to be "taken in" by a man who went about from place to place. The first witness, William Allen, said he resided at Mountain Hall, Camrose. Defendant called on him on November 1st last. He ar- rived in a motor car, and gave his name as Joseph Jackson, of Pembroke Dock, in which town, he said, he kept a shop. He produced some orders that had been given him by Mrs. Beaumont. He produced proofs of enlarged photographs of seven members of witness's household, and he agreed to do the enlarge- men!3 for 411. The accused said it was custo- mary for payment to be made before the order was executed, and witness paid him jEH. The' receipt, which was now produced, stated that the payment was for "two oils, three painted, and two black and whites," At this stage the accused was allowed to un- pack a large number of paintings, and to ex- hibit them in the well of the court. So numer- ous were the paintings that the court soon re- sembled a photo gallery. 0 Asked what induced him to part with his money, witness said that the accused had done no much work for others, and he thought it was all right. Mr. Griffith Jones: Did he say anything about a shop? C-ol. Jones protested against that as a leading question. The Chairman said the whole thing depended on the answer to that question, and counsel ought not to lead in that. Witness, in answer to other questions, said "If he had not told me he lived in Pembroke Dock and kept a shop there I would not have paid him." Col. Jones then cross-examined the witness, who, on being pressed, said he was influenced by the fact that the accused had executed orders for other people and given the utmost satisfaction. Col. Jones: Wasn't that the cardinal reason? —Yes. "Here's your picture," said Col. Jones, taking up one and holding it up for the witness to see. "Are you satisfied with that?" "As far as I can see," said witness. Col. Jones: They speak for themselves. They are works of art?—Yes, sir. And because he didn't deliver the pictures earlier to you you want to make a criminal of him?—He promised to deliver them in three weeks. Col. Jonesi handed up another picture, and witness said it looked like that of his son. "And who is this," said Col. Jones, holding up another. The witness failed to recognise it, and there was much laughter when Col. Jones told him it was his wife. Witness at- tempted to save the situation by saying that he could not see very well without his glasses. In further cross-examination, witness said he could not sue the accused in the county court as he did not know where he lived. Re-examined, witness said the enlargements were not produced at the police court proceed- ings. Martha Thomas said she- lived at Roch Castle, and was the wife of John Thomas. Accused called on her last October, and said he was Jackson from Pembroke Dock, and kept a shop there. He asked if she had any photographs she would like enlarged, and offered to do l them in oils for &2 each. She paid him iEG, and had never since heard from the accused, "•v although he promised to deliver the goods in three weeks or a month. She thought he was bona fide, and would have brought the pic- tures as he said. Mary Lewis, wife of Dan Lewis, Castle Hill Farm, Pembroke, spoke to the accused visiting her in the early part of November. At first witness refused to give him any photographs to ,see, but he was very persistent, and witness finally yielded. About a week later he brought her a proof, with which she was not satisfied, as there was a darkness about the forehead which she did not like. He said he could re- move that, and producing an oil painting of a soldier, said he would do one like that for her for £ 3. She refused payment. He then asked her to pay k2 in advance, and as she still de- clined he eventually came down to 5s. Ac- cused then made out a receipt for 5s.uid re- marked that he would trust her with a receipt for 5s., although he had not received the money. Then she gave him the 5s. Col. Jones: He showed his kindnessl towards you. He was willing to give you a receipt without having the money?—It was not his kindness; it was his, way of trying to get the money. (Laughter). Witness added that she was to pay the balance of ZZ 15s. again. The Chairman :We commend your wisdom. Witness added that she had not seen fhe ac- cused since. Frederick Lewis Morris, Brimaston Grange, Hayscastle, said that accused called upon him and said his name was Jackson, and that he kept a shop in Pembroke Dock. He told wit- ness that he enlarged photos in oils and water colours, and pressed witness to give him a few photographs to take away. After a great deal of persuasion witness gave him a photograph of himself, his wife, the children, and of another person. On the occasion of the man's second visit witness gave him a cheque for I £10, On February 20th he wrote to the ac- cused at Pembroke Dock, and received a reply on March 10th, in which accused stated "We deeply regret delay on account of the health of our branch manager, Mr. J. Jackson," and added, "We are giving our attention to the Pembroke county, and hope to deliver them in a few weeks, including yours." Cross-examined, witness said he did not give evidence in the police court, but made, a state- ment to the police at Letterston. He expected the pictures to be deliverd in two months at the latest. He said he was not satisfied with the proof of himself and wife. Col. Jones: You thought, perhaps, that he had not made you handsome enough? (Laugh- ter)—I did not consider they were as good as I was. Chairman: Very few of us are satisfied. Margaret Williams, Landshook, Spittal, gave similar evidence. She paid accused £ 8 5s. "He would have it, explained witness. "He would not go without it." Col. Jones: A good business man. Mrs. Mary Ann Griffiths, wife of John Griffiths, Bolton Hill Mill, spoke to paying ac- cused L3, less 5s., for enlarging. He called on February 28th with the proofs. She would not have given the order if she had known that the accused lived at Swansea. R. Griffiths, Hook, Treffgarne, said he paid the accused iC8 5s. in notes, but had not yet received the pictures. He also wrote to the accused on February 20th, and received a reply on March 10th. Margaret Davies, wife of John Davies, South Hill Farm, spoke to paying the accused 92 17,s. 6d. P.O. David Evans, Pembroke Dock, said the accused had not kept a shop in that town. In cross-examination, he admitted that Jackson at one time lived in Pembroke Dock for nine. months. Madame Higgs, Picton Place, Haverfordwest, carrying on business as a photographer, said she had no difficulty in obtaining materials j to carry on her business. THE DEFENCE. I The defendant, who put on his hat to be sworn, said he lived at Mansel Terrace, Swan- sea, and was a photographic artist. He had re- sided at Bush Street, Pembroke Dock, for nine months, and so far as his Pembrokeshire busi- ness was concerned he regarded Pembroke Dock as his headquarters. A letter addressed to him "Jackson, artist, Pembroke Dock," would always find him at Swansea. The delay had been caused owing to the difficulty of getting glass and timber for the frames. He had delivered 600 or 700 photos in Pembroke Dock and district. He generally delivered fifty or sixty at a time, as it did not pay him to pay carriage on one or two. He was a Russian Jew, and well-known to the police at Haver- fordwest. Cross-examined, defendant admitted having received various sums of money in the county, including £9 5s. from Mr. James Harries, Hays- castle. He would not dispute the statement that he had received a total of iCl29 7s. without delivering the goods. He had been paid as much as Z500 before now in the county. David George, Camrose, said he had received a photographic enlargement from the accused, and was well satisfied, "and the\missus was," added the witness, amid laughter. W. E. Evans, Park House Farm, Prender- gast, gave similar evidence. I E. G. Prothero, a former mayor of Swansea, a J.P., and alderman, said he had known the accused for about ten years. He was a most respectable and highly industrious man, and he was much surprised at the charge. Accused I had a sister married to a Christian. Jackson, he added, -lived in one of the nicest thorough- fares in Swansea. The jury, without leaving the box, returned a verdict of "not guilty," and the accused was discharged.

ONE LAW FOR ALL. HOME SECRETARY AND THE CHIEF CONSTABLE. Our readers will no doubt remember that on November last the licensee of the Bush Hotel, Pembroke Dock, was fined for supplying in- toxicants to some officers on a Sunday, and that the Pembroke Dock Bench, when dealing with the case, expressed the opinion that the officers in question, whose names had been ,suppressed, should be brought before them. Supt. Thomas .said he would inform the Chief Constable of the County of the Magistrates' wishes, but at the next sitting of the Court, a message was received from the Chief that he had dealt with the officers himself." The Bench were, not unnaturally, indignant at being treated in this contemptuous manner, and decided to write to the Home Secretary on the matter. Prior to the commencement of the business at Pembroke Dock Petty Sessions on Saturday, the Mayor (Aid. W. Evans) referred to the case and said that the Justices took the stand that there should be the same law for the rich as for the poor. Correspondence had taken place between the Justices Clerk and the Home Secretary, and he would ask the Clerk to read a letter which had been received form the Home Office. The Clerk (Mr H. A. Jones Lloyd) then read the following letter Sir.—With reference to previous correspon- dence on the subject of the proceedings against the licensee of the Bush Hotel, Pembroke Dock, in November last, in respect of an offence committed on her premises on Sunday the 22nd October, I am directed by the Secretary of State to express, his regret for the delay which has occurred in sending a further reply to your letters, and to say that he agrees with the views expressed in your letter of January 8th., and as a result of his communications with the War Office, he gather^ that the Army Council concur that Regulation 56 of the Defence of the Realm Regulations is not applicable to the case. The Secretary of State has communicated with the Chief Constable with a vivw to se- curing that, should any similar case arise in the future, all parties concerned may be dealt with alike under the licensing law. He thinks that it is unnecessary in the circum- stances to pursue the present case further.

RHEUMATISM—KIDNEY TROUBLE. Rheumatism is due to uric acid crystals in the joints and muscles, the result of excessive uric acid in'the system that the kidneys failed to re- move as nature intended, and this acid is also the cause of backache, lumbago, sciatica, gout, urinary trouble, stonel gravel, dropsy. Estora Tablets, a specific based on Modern medical science, are the successful treatment, and have cured numberless obstinate cases after the failure of all other remedies, which accounts for them superseding out-of-date medicines sold at a price beyond all but the wealthy. Estora Tablets-an honest remedy at an honest price—Is 3d per box of,40 tablets, or six boxes for 6s 9d. All chemists, or postage free from Estora Co 132, Charing Cross-road, London, W.C.

I Haverfordwest Company Fined. PROCEEDINGS TAKEN BY A SHAREHOLDER. Books Destroyed By Fire. At the Haverfordwest Petty Sessions on Mon- day, before the Mayor (Mr G. H. Llewellin), Mr. William John, Mr. C. C. Saies, and Mr. R. Sinnett, W. F. Thomas and Co., Ltd., were sum- moned at the instance of Alfred Davies, tobac- conist, High Street, for not holding a general meeting of the company within fifteen months after the preceding general meeting as re- quired by the Companies (Consolidated) Act, 1938. Mr. W. F. Thomas was also proceeded against as managing director of the company. Mr. Greathead, Pembroke Dock, was for the plaintiff, and Mr. A. B. Williams for the de fendant. Mr. Greathead said the last annual general meeting of the company was held on December 24th, 1915, and no subsequent meeting had yet been held. That being so, no balance sheet had been published, and he understood that at the present time an application was to be made for the company to be wound up. That, how- ever, had nothing to do with the proceedings in that court, which were taken by Mr. Alfred Davies, a shareholder. Mr. A. B. Williams formally admitted that Mr. Davies was a shareholder in the company, and that it was a limited liability company. Mr. Greathead pointed out that the maxi- mum penalty which the bench could impose under the section of the Act under which those proceedings were taken was £50, and they were also empowered to order any part of the penalty towards the payment of the costs of the prosecution. 4500 SHARES. '11'- .11! T"- ivir. Aiireu uavies was men. sworn, and ex- amined by his advocate. Mr. Greathead: Are you a shareholder of this company Mr. Davies: Unfortunately I am, to the ex- tent of £500. When was the last annual general meeting of the company?—On December 24th, 1914. Were you present?—I was. Have you since then had notice of any fur- ther meeting of the company?—No. Do you know whether one has been held?- I am not aware that one has been held. And no balance sheet published?—No. Have you been. in communication with the managing director on the subject?—Yes. Mr. Greathead then read the following letter, dated January 23rd, which Mr. W. F. Thomas had written to Mr. W. G. Wynne, solicitor, Pembroke Dock, replying to the latter's in- quiry "Dear Sir.—In reply to your letter we much regret delay in submitting balance sheet, but we believe your client is aware of an unfortunate fire on our premises some months ago, whereby a considerable number of papers were destroyed, and also that the company has been for sometime encounter- ing serious embarrassment. "However, it is gratifying to know that the debenture holders, to whom you refer, do not propose-to take action at present, as any such step would entirely deprive, your client of any possible chance of being at all re- couped. We may point out that for some months we have, in order to prevent a de- benture holders' action becoming operative, been paying considerable sums to liquidate their charge, and we hope during the next month to prepare a statement of affairs, and to pay your client's interest. Yours faith- fully, W. F. THOMAS." There was a further letter from Mr. Thomas, in which he stated that "in consequence of exceptional circumstances and the depletion of staff, which had been sometime ago pointed out to the petitioner, the company had failed to hold the annual meeting within the pre- scribed time, which expired on March 24th. The petitioner had been asked in view of other proceedings, to allow the matter to stand over for a fortnight, and we have offered to furnish liiin with any information he desires respecting the general position of the com- pany." Mr. A. B Williams pointed out that during the recent fire on the premises certain books were destroyed. Owing to the depletion of his staff Mr. Thomas was now obliged to drive his own motors for the delivery of bread. The time during which the annual general meet- ing should have been held expired on March 24th, and this summons was taken out on March 26th. The Mayor remarked that if the meeting had been held on March 26th, Mr. Davies would still have been entited to take proceedings. Therefore there was no point in that defence. Mr. A. B. Williams said that no doubt Mr. Thomas had been hit by the war. Nearly the whole of his business had been comman- deered. Mr. Greathead said it was quite obvious from the correspondence that the balance sheet had not been' prepared. The bench imposed a fine of £3 3s. on Mr. W. F. Thomas, £ 2 2s. on the company, and out of the fine directed that £ 1 Is. should be paid Mr. Greathead for costs.

The story is told of a woman going to a village friend of her's who kept poultry to purohase a setting of eggs. The latter asked: "Haveyou got a broody ben?" No," was the answer; "bat our old hen has broken her leg, and she might as well spend her time hatching out some eggs as sit about doing nothing."

THE CINEMA.—A welcome re-appearance at the Cinema, Market-square, this week has been Ultus in "The Secret of the Night," a very strong play which brings out the fioe points of the great actor to perfection. The variety is a pleasing one- Kiddy Kennedy, the famous child comedienne, and she is being well received. The week-end pro- gramme includes a remarkable criminal film in four reels, entitled, "The Panther of Death," a picture which no one must fail to see. Episode 11 of the great serial, Liberty," produces more and still more thrills. For Monday next Mr Seard has booked a rare treat, My Old Kentucky Home," in five acts. COUNTY SCHOOL —The football results 'of the school team have been satisfactory, the season having just been brought to a close before the end of the term. Eleven matches have been played, 6 won, 1 drawn and 4 lost, as follows:-Grammar School, Haverfordwest, 4 matches, won 2 lost 2; Pembroke Dock County School, won 1; Priory Road, won 1; Hakin, lost 1 Visitors, won 1, Trevor Cole's Team, won 1 Fitters, draw 1, lost 1, won 1; Played 11, lost 4, won G, draw 1. EGGS ARE CHEAPER.—"Eggs "and "Easter" are associated in the minds of most of our countrymen, especially those who are still young. That being so, the Central Hall Egg Committee do not hesitate to ask the public to contribute generously to the fund for providing eggs for wounded soldiers- many of whom have just emerged from boybood. In Hakin and Hubberston district last year 500 Easter eggs were collected and the Committee are confidently hoping for an equally generous response this year. Do please provide an egg for the break- fast of one of our wounded on Easter Sunday morning. The kind act will give an added relish to your own Easter egg. The following sums were collected in Hakin during March:—Emmie Vaughan, 2 eggs and 19s 7d; Jaenne Herkens, lOa lid Doris Morgan and Vera Job, 6s 8d; Hilda John, 10 eggs and 4s 4d. TRINITY COLLEGE OF Music.-Milford Haven has been made a local centre for examinations, under the Board of Trinity College of Music, London.

(chairman), Rev. H. J. Barber, Messrs. Morgan W. Howell, A. P. Guest and J. H. Rowlands. Mr. Kenworthy will be glad to furnish any information to any who desire to sit at these examinations. THE PICTURE PALACE.—At the Robert Street Picture House the week opened with the customary excellent selection offilms, which were led by the 5,000 feet drama, "Tbv Neighbour's Wife." A genuinely human piece of acting. The Triangle Comedy was one of the very best. These and other films are still on the screen to-night (Wednesday), and should not be missed. Commencing to-morrow (Thursday) night there will be another well arranged programme. Drama is represented in The Yellow Fang," a particularly fine production in which Tilly Marshall takes the principal part. The Laughing Mask (serial) enters on the 9th episode and will be equally interesting as previous issues. The comedy will be "Ambrose cup of woe featuring the droll Mack Swain. For Monday and the opening part of next week a 5 part drama entitled Not my Sister occupies chief place, and once more Bessie BarriscaJe takes the leading role. Comedies and Pathe's Gazette nightly make up the bill of fare. WESLEYAN SUNDAY SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY.— The annual Sunday School festival in connection with the Wesleyan Church, Priory Road, was cele- brated on Sunday last, and from every point of view were very successful. The preacher for the day was Rev. F. Clarke, Pembroke, whose discourses were thought provoking and forceful. At the morning service the choir gave a very effective rendering of the anthem, "Bless the Lord 0 My Soul" (Mackenzie) in which the solos were taken by Miss Olive Davies and Mr W. J. Cole. In the afternoon there was a United Service of the Free Church Sunday Schools, and a beautiful service was conducted by Mr Clarke, who gave an address on the words "To be continued" a very helpful, interest- ing, and practical utterance which left an impres- sion upon hearers of all ages. There was a full congregation at the evening service. The choir gave an impressive rendering of the Cborus "We never will bow down." (Handel). The singing as usual was a feature of the services and was under the direction of the organist and choirmaster, Mr W. T. Roberts, A.R.C.O., whose careful training of the children and Choir was very marked, whilst his sympathetic interpretation of the hymns on the new organ was very effective. Special collections were taken on behalf of the Sunday School Funds. NATIONAL SERVICE CAMPAIGN. On Sunday evening in common with most of the towns in the eountv, a, public meeting was held at the Cinema, Market Square, in connection with the National Service Campaign. There was a very good atten- dance, especially considering the bitterness of the weather. Mr Morgan W. Howell, J.P., chairman of the Urban District Council, presided, and was supported by Councillors J. B. Gaskell, D. Pettit and J. P. Morgan, local secretary. Mr David Evans, Whitland, sub-commissioner for the area, attended, and kindly explained the details of the scheme. The Rev. John Lamb followed in a spirited speech. A vote of thanks to Mr Harry Scard for the use of the Cinema concluded the proceedings.

(Eomsponftena. To the Editor of the 11 Milford Haven Telegraph." MILFORD HAVEN TRADES AND LABOUR COUNCIL AND ALLOT- MENTS. SIR,-Following the publication in your last issue of correspondence relating to the above,—so as to enable the public to form their own opinion in the matter,—I am directed by the above Council to forward you the enclosed correspondence for publication. From the Secretary of the Board of Agrioolture to Mr A. Stafford I am directed by the President of the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 19tb inst., with refer- ence to the dimculty which your Council is ex- periencing in obtaining land for allotments, and I am to say that Mr Prothero is in communication with the Urban District Council in the matter. I am to enclose herewith, copies of the Board's circular letter, A 297 C. and order, the new powers of which might meet the case to which you refer. From Milford Haven U.D. Council To A. Stafford, Assistant secretary, Milford Haven Trades and Lab Council DEAR SIR,—Your letters of the 12th and 14th inst, addressed to the chairman, were read to my Council at their monthly meeting, buhthey con- sidered the letter of the 14th. inst. so discourteous and insulting that it was considered no useful pur- pose can be served by continuing the correspond- ence. I am, however, directed to contradict your statement with regard to seed potatoes. One of the first persons to be informed that they could be obtained was your secretary and be was asked to convey the information to your members.—Yours, etc., THOMAS LEWIS, Clerk. It is felt that in view of what has taken place, it must be obvious to all, and therefore unnecessary to state, that the Trades' and Labour Council take the credit and deserve the thanks for having been the means of both directly and indirectly obtaining the numerous allotments now under cultivation in Milford. If the Urban District Council are some- what upset at my Council's drastic action (and the 4orcible resolution of the allotment holders con- tained in our Assistant Secretary's letter to them of the 14th ult) they have only themselves to blame and must reform for while other U. D. Councils were busy having land ploughed for the people they appeared to be suffering from some- thing akin to beri-beri, and awaited the awakening by the Trades and Labour Council. As regards the letter from the U.D.C given above, my Council are quite content to allow the reply thereto to come from the public at the next election. In conclasion, I am directed to state that, as a strong body of responsible citizens, and above all as trade unionists, the Trades and Labour Council intend, in the future as they have in the past, tak- ing action, and where necessary drastic action, in all matters affecting the well-being of its members and the general public in which they can do good. I am, &c., I WALTER C. BOUTCHER, President.

HOW HOSPITALS CURE SERIOUS LIVER, KIDNEY, AND BLADDER DISORDERS. Alice Landles, qualified nurse, says, Drink brdi- nary saltrated water for permanent results. This is the time hospitals experience a rn&h of dangerous functional disorder cases. Dur- ing the cold winter months a heavy, beat- producing diet is the rule, ann fhp RVRffim becomes loaded with accu- mulated carbonaceous waste and poisonous impurities, which clog the eliminative organs, so there is constant absorption of toxins into the blood. Then follow stomach, kidney, bladder, and skin, troubles, rheumatism, neu- raigic headache, backache, catarrh, influenza, bilious- ness, jaundiced liver, or even appendicitis, dropsy, and Brigbt's disease. Toxins and bacteria excite the heart, poison the nerves, deprive the body of disease-resisting vitality, and you have no energy to do any-thing, or say yoa are irritable, sleep badly, and have weak nerves from over-work, worry, etc. The real trouble is auto intoxication, or sslf-poisoning. Otherwise you could not have such symptoms. Try drinking occasionally a level teaspoonful of common refined alkia saltrates in a half tumbler of water, notice how quickly your miofl clears, and your eyes brighten, and yonr whole body becomes absolutely fit, as the system's great filters and blood refiners (the liver and kidneys) begin to work properly again. This I pleasant-tasting and remarkably curative substance can be supplied at slight cost by any good chemist. —A. L.
