ISoven out of forty-one. I Forty-one gentlemen have been added to the roll of magistrates for Carmarthen- shire, of whom only seven reside in the Llanelly district. This is another example of how the most important town in the county is treated by the powers that be" at Carmarthen. We have nothing to say against the seven gentlemen who have succeeded in gaining the favour of the Lord Lieutenant and his Advisory Committee. They will, we have no doubt, discharge their magisterial duties with all dignity and discretion. The number, however, is totally inadequate. Instead of seven, there should be seventeen new justices for the Llanelly division. Llan- elly represents a third of the county, both in population and in rateable value. Tak- ig this proportion as a minimum, four- teen of the forty-one should belong to this district It .is well-known, too, that there is a shortage of magistrates locally, with the result that the police courts are frequenly delayed for an hour and more owing to the difficulty of securing the presence of more than one justice. In the other parts of the couiaty, there are plenty of magistrates and to spare. In fact, it often happens that at the Llan- dilo, Llandovery, and Newcastle Emlyn Courts, there are more sitting magis- trates than defendants. Not so long ago at one of these courts, there was a sitting bench of eight magistrates, and all the business they had to transact was to ad- judicate upon two "drunks." It must not be forgotten, too, that several of the magistrates attached to the Llanelly division are permanent absentees. The list includes Mr. Mansel Lewis, Capt. Buckley, Mr. G. B. Elkington, and Mr. Hugh Nevill, none of whom are ever in attendance at the court. This means that an unfairly heavy share of the work devolves upon the others. For the list published this week, we understand that Mr. Nicholas, Mr. W. N. Jones, and the Lord Lieutenant are primarily respon- sible. This trio of worthies know nothing about the requirements of Llanelly, and probably care less. They evidently re- gard seven out of forty-one as a fair dis- tribution of honours for Llanelly. What have the Llanelly members of the County Council to say to this ? 1 The Tradesmen's Association. I i In spite of the disappointing atten- dance at the preliminary meeting, we be- lieve that the Tradesmen's Association formed this week will become a powerful and influential body. An organization of this kind has long been wanted in the town, and we hope that every local tradesman will throw in his lot with it and make the Association what it ought to be-truly representative of an impor- tant section of the ratepayers. Without anticipating the programme which the members may adopt, we would like to re- fer to two important questions that ought to be taken into serious considera- tion by the members. First, there is the matter of assessments. Many local tradesmen are unfairly handicapped by the unequal incidence of the rates. The list of assessments reveals numerous anomalies which call for adjustment, Hardly less important is the weekly half- I holiday. There is a general feeling that 1 Tuesday is a most unsuitable day for early closing. It comes too early in the week to be properly appreciated as a hoii lay, and what is of greater conse- qut ice, it plays into the hands of Swan- sea shopkeepers who reap a golden harvest every Tuesday afternoon from Llanelly, at the expense of our own shopkeepers. There M-e several other matters to which the Association should address itself, but the two we have men- tioned will do to go on with. Town Planning at Llanerch. I The proposals placed before the Roads Committee for the laying out of the Llanerch district only serve to accen- tuate our regret that some scheme of town planning was not adopted in Lian- elly twenty years ago. Bad this been done, the town to-day would hear a dif- ferent aspect in every respect. We should have had order and system in- stead of a higgledy-piggledy collection of houses dignified by the name of streets. Our main streets would have been broad, handsome thoroughfares, Instead of be- ing what they are—narrow lanes hope- lessly inadequate for present-day require- ments. The blame for this state of things rests, of course, upon the landowners, who in their greed for ground rents, crowded as many buildings as possible into the smallest possible area. The old Council, however, canrut be acquitted of their share of responsibility. They went to work without any definite plans in their mind, and allowed houses to be built anywhere and anyhow without any regard to the amenities of the town as a whole. But better late than never. The "garden city" at Llanerch will be a great ornament to the town, and we await its completion with interest. Library <<? £ nsion Schemes. I We h ( that the Corporation will set their oternly against any proposals to spend a lot of money on the Athen- aeum for Library extension purposes. This is a matter in which the local authority should make provision not merely for the next few years, but for half a century to come. Increased ac- commodation is certainly required, but not by a reconstruction of the present premises. The suggestion is being made that the Corporation should adopt a scheme for a Public Hall and Library under the same roof on the Felindan site. This is worthy of serious atten- tion, and we trust that it will be acted upon. A well-appointed and well-housed Library is one of Llanelly's most urgent needs. The premises now used are total- ly inadequate, and no alterations at the Athenaeum will provide what is neces- sary.
Here and There.
Here and There. [By Sentinel] I -0 ——— Many more willing. I The only disappointment in the new list of local J.P.'s is the small number appointed locally. Only five local names appear in the list with two from Burry Port. Having regard to the increasing work in the Llanelly division, at least a dozen should have been appointed. There is a wide choice available—we know a score of gentlemen who would be quite prepared to add the mystic letters after their names. Oh yes, there are plenty of Barkises about The youngest W. M. I To Mr. J. H. Montgomery belongs the distinction of being the youngest Free- mason who has ever been elected to the chair of the Worshipful Master of the Prince of Wales lodge. The gathering at the installation this week also con- stituted a record,—a striking tribute to the measure of popularity enjoyed by the new Master. The High Sheriff. I Mr. Joseph Williams, High Sheriff, will entertain a large party to luncheon at Carmarthen on Monday in connection with the Assizes. Our esteemed towns- man has carried out the duties of the position with dignity, and will shortly be succeeded by Mr. Morton Evans, Plas- issa. The High Sheriff elect is the son of a former Sheriff, his father, the late Mr. David Evans, having served the county in that position some years ago. Disappointed Aspirants. I Opinions differ upon the new list of Magistrates. Some regard it as being notable for the names it includes; others say that it is remarkable for those who have been left out. What claim has he to a seat on the Bench ? What about my services to the party ? "Surely I have done as much public work as Mr. So and So. These are some of the comments to be heard wherever two or three are gathered together. The Creat Unpaid. I The recent additions to the local Bench remind one that t one time the beaks' sat in great the T :'m "-now known as tie London House. Subse- quently, they dispensed justice at the old Town Hall in Hall street. This was for many years the Old Bailey for the town and district, and was the scene of many a hotly-contested case. On great occasions, the magistrates held their court at the Athenaeum, which provided more accommodation for those having business with the Bench and also for the public at large. In his interesting Old Llanelly," Mr. Innes describes a humor- ous case in which a certain solicitor, now long since vanished to a world where lawyers are not found, was himself charged with being drunk and incapable. First case," called the Magistrates Clerk. "I appear for the defendant," said the accused lawyer, rising as usual, 'l and he pleads guilty," "Fire shillings and costs/' said the Bench. "Next case" called the Magis- trates clerk. It was all over in a minute. A reputa- tion was saved. Dining Themselves. In 1843, Wm. Chambers, then Llall- elly's chief citizen, gave evidence before the commission held after the Rebecca Riots, and threw a flood of light on the customs of the day and the free and easy way in which the magistrates used to carry on their duties. 'Petty Sessions,' said Mr. Chambers, are held every Mon- day. With regard to the fees, these the magistrates were always in the habit of taking and dividing amongst themselves. When my father first came to this dis- trict, at the first meeting he attended one of the magistrates acted as clerk. | 4 fter they had dined, the money was led out of a little bag and it was j :ded among the magistrates. There h. r: -iod to be an odd half-crown over, and of the magistrates said-' I will keep thi; as I acted as clerk.' Q. Do you mean that the magistrals were in the habit of dining together upo. the fees ? A. Yes. and then dividing the remain- I der, if there was more than enough 1-0 I pay for the dinner.

Labour Members Protest I
Labour Members Protest I 4'1 I WHAT IS A LIVING WAGE ? When the minutes of the House Com- mittee came up for confirmation on Thursday at the meeting of the Board of Guardians, Mr. Elias Davies pointed out that although there were recommen- dations for increases of salary to some of the officials there was no mention of the porter. Mr. Win. Pugh thought that in view of the recent new duties placed upon the porter, and in view of what other bodies had done, they should give the porter an increase also. Mr. Elias Davies: It is wrong in prin- ciple for a public body to employ a man at what he considered to be less than a living wage. There was an agitation on foot now to ensure a wage of 30s. a week to every man. The Board, however, was only paying zC30 a year to their porter. Chorus of Members: And his mainten- ance. Mr. Davies: Well, say that comes to 15s. a week, it only makes a total salary of 27s. 6d. then. I propose that the House committee be asked to reconsider this matter. Mr. Wm. Pugh seconded. > The Rev. Dd. Jones (Burry Port), pro- posed the confirmation of the minutes "in toto." Lady Howard seconded, and the amend- ment was carried.
Friendly Societies I
Friendly Societies I CANNOT FIND SUITABLE ROOMS. I -0 At the meeting of the Llanelly Estates Committee on Wednesday evening, Councillor D R. Jones said that Friendly Societies were experiencing a great deal of difficulty in getting places for the pur- I pose of holding their meetings. He would like to know whether it was not possible to grant them the use of the Old Town Hall. The Surveyor said he had under con- sideration a scheme involving the conver- sion of the Old Town Hall into a Fire Brigade station. Councillor D. R. Jones: Then I pro- pose that we give notice to the Chamber of Commerce to terminate the tenancy of the small room in their occupation in order that it might be let to the Friend- ly Societies. The Chairman (Councillor J. Walter Thomas) said that the small room was not used by the Chamber of Commerce except for phoning. The motion was agreed to.
HAGGARS THEATRE. I
HAGGARS THEATRE. The remarkable attractive force of Pooles has been again amply manifested this week. The Theatre has been crowded up at every performance, and the splen- did programme given by the world famous entertainers has been most favourably commented upon by all. The Haggars management, however, are to be complimented upon the sustain- ed excellence of their weekly fare, and the attraction for next week promises to be quite the equal of any of the others. We are to have a return of the pantomime and the extraordinary hit' made by the last panto' will in itself ensure a good reception for Mr. Henry L. Osmond's Co. who will present 'Cinderella.' The popu- larity of the twice nightly venture in pan- tomimes locally ha.s been so pronounced that Mr Haggar has again made arrange- ments for its continuance next week.
HANDCART, NOT A HEARSE.
HANDCART, NOT A HEARSE. The Hwv. T. Pym Williamson, vicar of Thelwall, has just died in his 78th year. He left instructions that he should be buried as a plain, homely palish priest, with no procession and no flowers. He would prefer to be carried to his grave- on a handcart rather than in a hearse.

A Gowerton Squatter i
A Gowerton Squatter OLD LADY WHO PREFERS THE SIMPLE LIFE. At a meeting of the Board of Guardians on Thursday, the Clerk (Mr. D. C. Edwards) reported the receipt of a com- munication from the Swansea Rural District Council drawing their attention to the case of the Gowerton Squatter.' This old lady it will be remembered has given the Swansea Rural District Coun- cil and the Llanelly Guardians much trouble during recent years. She is now 60 years of age, and was some years ago forcibly ejected from her house which was condemned as unfit for habitation. The veteran, however, put up with the workhouse life for only a few weeks, and afterwards returned to her old hovel.' The Council then took the drastic step of burning down the house; but in spite of all the old woman has persisted in sticking to the same spot, and she now lives in the ruins of her former home. The letter from the Swansea District Council advised the Guardians to have her again removed to the Workhouse. Mr. Harding (Gowerton) The sooner the better she is removed. It will cer- tainly be to her benefit to come to the House. Admittedly though it will be easier said than done. Lady Howard: Yes, people value their freedom so much more than their com- fort. Mr. Wm. Pugh: They look upon the Workhouse with its comforts and luxuries as after all a. "gilded cage." The Clerk suggested that the official of the Swansea Council and Mr. Longhurst, the relieving officer, should endeavour to persuade the woman to come back to the Workhouse. Mr. Longhurst: We have been trying for the last five years, and she won't move. The Clerk: But you can try again. The Relieving Officer said her habita- tion now as a collection of sheds. Mr. Harding: Yes, the house has been taken down, or 1) rather. j Mr. Longhurst: That is so; but when the house was demolished the neighbours showed their sympathy by making a col- lection, and she was able to erect her shed on the spot in the ruins. shed on the spot in the rii,n, lieving officer said that the woman was in receipt of relief ot 5s. a week. 1f" Tlardinc c;ho n^kiig star'1 for the simple life.

 Sporting Gossip. CcssZvP*…
 Sporting Gossip. CcssZvP* a ——— By "Rip." I RUGBY. I A word about our Forwards. I One could not have witnessed the last two games at Stradey without lamenting the fact that the Scarlets were so small in stature and light. The lightest mem- ber of the Cardiff pack must have been as heavy as the heaviest of our forwards while the same statement applies to the Swansea vanguard last Saturday. It is quite a puzzle why the Swansea and Cardiff committees should have such a choice of heavy forwards, while our committee have to content themselves with a pack of forwards whose average weight cannot be much over 11 stone. Is the physique of the Llanellyite inferior to that of the Swanseaite or of the Car- diff i an ? The Committee's policy. t One is almost tempted to answer in the affirmative. Judging from the physique of the members of the respec- tive Rugby fifteens one would be bound to come to such a conclusion. After all though, that is not a real indication. One has rather to bear in mind the polices of the respective selection com- mittees of these clubs. What then is the general policy of the Lianelly committee regarding the selec- tion of their team. Well a review of the last couple of seasons will show us that the pack of the Scarlets has during that period been most decidedly a light one. 1Ve have had sets of forwards second to none in the loose. Their play has been characterised with such dash and whole-heartedness in the open phases of the game that dazzling concerted irresis- tible rushes have become a feature of their play. So much so, in fact, that pressmen have now contracted the habit of referring to these rushes as charac- teristic of the Scarlets. Is the policy politic ? I It has undoubtedly given much grati- fication to the committee that the for- wards for whose selection they have been responsible have built up such a reputa- tion; but have the results of the policy justified the committee in its continua- tion ? That is a question which one would not be justified in answering off- handedly. One finds no difficulty, however, in throwing one's memory back over the doings of the Scarlets during the past five seasons. Here lies the answer to my question. The first feature about this record which claims our attention is the poor scoring ability of the Reds. Only against second rate teams has the team piled on a. score of some twenty points, I and even then only occasionally. Attacking prowess impaired. The mterence is plain. The dazzling rushes of the forwards have only featur- ed the games as spectacular effects. They have seldom resulted in scores. After all, points count One cannot but ar- rive at the conclusion therefore, that the selection of forwards reputed for bril- liance in the open has somewhat impair- ed the attacking prowess of the side. The reason for this is obvious. The selected forwards have been too light to hold their own in the serums. In conse- quence the backs have had but few or comparatively few opportunities for per- fecting their combination, with the re- sult that the few chances which have come their way have been indifferently treated. A mistaken idea. I During the progress of the Swansea match I heard one supporter tell another If the forwards would only stick to that rushing game the Scarlets would win.' That is a mistaken though prevalent idea. The Scarlets did stick to the rush- ing game; but they did not win. They have done so in other matches and they have lost. They will probably, do so again and lose. I do not mean it to be inferred that the rushing tactics are no good. They are splendid as means of gaining ground; but it is ten chances to one that a try does not accrue from a forward rush. You must have noticed how easy it is in a rush for a forward to over run the ball and get pulled up by the referee for be- ing offside. In fact, many little infringe- ments crop up during a rush and invari- ably the movement is terminated by a scrum being ordered. It is that scrum that has time after time been the means of preventing a score. Our forwards have been too light to hold their op- ponents and heel out the ball, with the result that the defending backs have got possession and cleared. The Remedy. I 'Twere well therefore if the committee were to reconstruct their policy. They have given the light dashing forwards a good ieahe of life.' These have proved themselves incapable of consistently bringing off victories. Another policy must be put into operation. What is it? Well, we must induce our committeemen to take the cue from the Cardiff and Swansea teams. Both these teams had at least six weighty forwards who could give but little assistance in the open. They were, however, hardy and honest erimmagers and plied their backs with chances galore. Let the Llanelly committee seek out the weightiest forwards in the district. Let them make open work' brilliancy a, secondary consideration and they will find that the Scarlets will then be able to nolrl tiiAir own against all. Talent amongst the backs. I We have a threequarter line second to none in the country. Our centres are the best club pair in South Wales—bar none. Watts, it is true, has played in- differently at times; but his brilliancy in defence has always made up for his mistakes. Then, think of the game re- cently played at SUudey. Is it not a fact that o -r backs have been for three parts of their time on the defensive ? What ^rder those circumstance? I could >b."w thpjr real attacking prowess. Let -1: tcrwards give them the chances which fho, Swansea and Cardiff forwards to LLui- b^eks la-t Saturday anil the Sat'T-'Iay .previous, and you will iiiid anionprst the Scarlets' backs not only two j refipi-ve internationals hut three 'cap- uus* • <n"'9"¡' i :l t I W here ?(? iie ity forwards to come '¡. f-d,-ûn r T:r" "Tt" a gwod inany amongst ) *?? T?;«?? +?..?c .?.fTt T ?o'?d su;?'r"-? this scheme for the consideration of the Llanelly committee:—Let them invite all club secretaries to send particulars of all the heavy forwards they have in their team to the Firsts committee. Then let the committee arrange for one or two of their members to see the man playing. I am confident, that by so doing they could easily get together a pack of for- wards averaging in weight between 12 and 13 st-one-if not even more. SOCCER. Quiet Times. Things are unusually quiet, in Soocer circles just now. Another Swansea swopping would about do the trick in reviving interest though. Two or three reasons may be advanced to account for the 'quiet times.' First of all, no pro- gress is being made in the Southern League, and consequently as the Scarlets stand little chance of promotion, the sup- porters do not mind much what position they will ultimately occupy in that league.. Secondly there have been no 'hot' Welsh League encounters recently, and as the Scarlets are now ahead of all rivals in thi* league it will only be when a really strong side endeavours to dis- lodge them that live interest will be displayed by the supporters. Thirdly, the only feature of the fixture list which during the next month or so is going to arouse excitement is the Welsh cup competition. At present though, no interest (comparatively, of course) is shown in this contest, but the fourth round match with Summer- hill is imminent, and then the real active interest in the competition will show it- self. The ardent wish of Vlfioeat enthusiasts is that the Scarlets' and the Swans will get to the final, then there will be a. true test of the respective merits of the two teams—and I don't mind tipping the Scarlets to win. Saturday's Defeat. Liist Saturday's defeat of 4-1 by Pontyprid.d seems to have occasioned some surprise in some quarters. Those who had weighed matters up, however, could not but be prepared for the Dragons win. The Llanellyites had play- ed three times during the previous week, and consequently the men could not be expected to give of their best. The Dragons therefore were somewhat flattered by the result of the game. Had they a fresh' side to meet, the result would very possibly have turned out otherwise. New Players. One is pleased now in view of the im- minence of the cup matches that the directors are succeeding in their search for new talent. If we are to reach the "final" it will be most important that our players shall he in the pink of con- dition. An occasional rest will there- fore be necessary. The presence of re- liable substitutes will now make this to some extept possible. Recently three "captures" have been made. Vaughan of Llanidloes seems "right as rain" for he has been selected to play for the Welsh amateur Interna- tional side. He will play his first game for the Scarlets on the 27th of this month. The two other men are T.Price Hamer, the centre half from Brentford, and Simon Morris the outside .right from Caerau, who recently made such a splendid impression at Halfway. A friendly. It is gratifying now that the Llanelly team are climbing well up the ladder of fame, that they do not forget to hold' out a helping hand to younger combina- tions who are also anxious to arise. On Thursday tie team visited Ammanford and possibly a great deal of impetus will be given to the interest in Soccer in that district. It was only to be expected that the reds- should win; but the home team should soon beoome a power in Welsh Soccer. Llanelly won by 5 goals to 2.
