II Dancing in War Time I .…
II Dancing in War Time I I To the Editor of the "Star." Sir, Having seen in the "Star," which I receive regularly out here, references -to the dancing class at home, and being a < lover of dancing, I feel that I have some right to say a few words. I have been in France for the last 21 years,. and my judgment is that the two soldiers who made a nuisance of themselves to those in the class acted out of ignorance. The fact that one of them was wearing the Military Medal does not cxcus-e them in the least—in fact, it only makes their interference look worse. Are these two Tommies too ignorant to know that all of us cannot be in the trenches ? Instead ot being glad that somo of their friends are lucky enough to be kept at home do- mg important work, they actually show their jealousy. You can't put their silly j conduct down to anything else. j I was fortunate enough to get my fint leave some three months ago. Do yon think that whon we do get a chance of Some enjoyment on leave wo do not .take it ? It does not help things at all for the young fellows at home to be unhappy. Vv hy should they he as long as they do their work every day. and what rigid J have we to dolly them recreation in the evenings ? When I was home recently, ihe M.C. of line class at St. Peter's did me the favour of opening the class for me to have a dance. The great point to remember is that we all have to do our bit, whether at homo or abroad. The young fellows in the munition works are certainly doing their share, asd without their work, the sol- diers would not he able to do theirs. I say, therefore, let them enjoy themselves in their owm way without any inter- ference from jealous Tommies or anyone else. In conclusion, I would like to lie kind-" ly remembered to all the Llanelly boys. I am, etc., B. Battery, (Gunner) J. MORGAN. 84th Brigade, B.E.F. France. A REPLY FRO fvl HOSPITAL. I To the Editor of the "Star." Sir, 1 have HOW been admitted to Hospital and 'hope to be fit again soon. I read a reply in the "Star" from a discharged soldier in regard to our protest against slackers in the dancing class, and i -I arxious to make it clear that I did not refer to the boys in Llanelly who had done or were doing their hit. I know thcra are many such in the town, hut also, I am well aware that there arc hundreds who have not. It was this latter class that I was referring to. Yo. can easily tell a comrade by his discharge badge. I hope that the new recruiting scheme which is about to come into operation will have the effect of making these young slackers toe the line. Instead of attending the dancing class, it will be far better for them to learn how to form fours and handle a rifle. If they need exercise, they can get it under the best conditions and with the guidance of a good i nstrllctor. This will keep them in trim better than dancing, and they will also have the satisfaction of knowing that they are doing something for their country. I wish to convey to Sergt. Ivor Rees our congratulations on being the first Llanelly boy to have the Y.C. bestowed upon him. The Y.C. was bound to come to Sospan town sooner or later, and we arc proud that it has fallen to the lot of this gallant young Sergeant to bring it here. I am, etc., W. J. JENKINS. Highfield Military Hospital, Knotty Ash, Liverpool.

- LOCAL WEDDING. I -:-I
LOCAL WEDDING. I THOMAS—OWEN. I At Aherftraw, the ancient seat of the Welsh Princes, on the l?thinst., was so!ciunixcdthem.u'riasc of M? I?aac? Thomas, of St. Paul's, Llanelly, to Miss M. C. Owen, daughter of Mrs. Owen, of Prince Llcwc!yn Hotd. Th? ceremony which took place at the Calvinistic Mcthodisb Chapel, was conducted by the pastor, the Rev. E. Sidney Morris, I assisted by the Rev.. D. G. Harris, Baptist Minister, Rhosneigr. The brides- maid was Miss Owen, Trecastoll, the bride's niece, the best man (in the un- avoidable absence of Mr. W. B. Thomas, who is. out in Palestine) being Mr. F. Francis, Llanelly. The bride was given L l o, d of away by her cousin, Mrs. Lloyd, of Treiddon, and Miss Edwards, Ty'rallt, played the wedding march (Menaelssohn) The town was gaily dcccrarcd, and the I great concourse of people that had come to witness the ceremony testified to the high esteem in which the bride and bride- groom are held. The bride looked charming in a cream voile dress trimmed with gold embroidery and gold girdle, j with a black crepe-de-chene hat trimmed pink. She carried a white shower bouquet. ?ie bridesmaid wore a. coat frock of cream and pale green silk and a velour hat. The bride's going away dress was a mastic gaberdine costume lined with mcrve silk. The newly married couple left amidst the hearty congratulations and tiio good wishes of all to spend their honeymoon in London and the South Coast. The pre- sents wore numerous and costly. That of the bridegroom to the bride was a gold bracelet watch with gold pendant; the bride to the bridegroom, a leather travel- ling bag; the bridegroom to the brides- maid, a gold brooch.
I Pensions Scheme.
I Pensions Scheme. I APPROYED BY THE CORPORATION. At the special meeting of the Borough Council on Wednesday evening, the Mayor (Aid. D. James Davies), who pre- sided, said the meeting had been con- vened to consider the scheme for the ap- pointment of a local Pensions Committee. It was hoped by holding that special meeting to have the scheme confirmed by the Ministry for Pensions so that it would come into operation on October 1st. They authorised the Town Clerk to make a settlement. There was some opposition put in by the Llanelly and District Trades Association who were not satisfied with what the Corporation proposed, viz., that two members of the committee should be appointed direct by the Trades'Associa- tion and the Corporation to appoint at least two Labour representatives. The Town Oierk reported that he saw- Sir Samuel Rose, as directed, and talked the matter over with him. He (Mr. Spowart) found in the long run that there was not apparently a. very great gap to be bridged over. I he proposals of the Corporation were as stated bv the .Si ayor—f.vo members to be appointed by the Trades Association, one member by the W omen's Co-operative Guild, two by the local branch of the Silver Bit. Badge League, two by the Soldiers and Sailors Associat ion, one by the Soldiers and Sailors Help Society, and 13 by the Borough Council. The difficulties were with regard to the Labour nominations. He found that the officials for technical purposes would regard four members as a fifth of 22, in the same way as they would regard it as a fifth of 21, and it occurred to him to suggest that it would over the position if the Corporation in- creased the number of the Trades Associ- ation's representatives from two to three. That had the effect of not only being em- bodied but also of being scheduled in the scheme because the Women's Guild was regarded as a Labour organization, and that really made the four up. The Mayor: It means that we have conceded one more member to the Trades Association ? The Town Clerk That is so; it is a sort of splitting the difference between the Association and the Corporation. Coun. Evan Roberts: Have you re- ceived any applications from Joint Asso- ciations for representation ? The Town Cierk Yes, from the Associ- ation administering Messrs. Richard Thomas and Co.' s Relief fund, and I pointed out to the Company's secretary on the phone at once what a difficult I position it was because they could not be said to either represent Labour or to re- present capital. It was unanimously decided to approve of the amended scheme.

A DIFFICULT CASE. I "When the case of Wm. John Hosea was called at the meeting df the Borough Tribunal on Thursday, Lieut. Ingrams said "I have nine long letters and three telegrams while I have been up to the Ministry of Munitions about this man, and I am not ready to proceed with it yet, The Town Clerk: To be continued in our next (laughter). The Mayor: If we adjourn the case for three years you may be ready (renewed laughter). Lieut. Ingrams: It is a very tricky question and they cannot decide it. The Tribunal adjourned the case for three months, and Lieut. Ingrams gave notice of appeal.

Education Committee
Education Committee A meeting of the Borough Education Committee was held on Wednesday even- 1 ing when Councillor D. R. Jones presided. Increased Charges. The Clerk reported that the governing authority of the Liverpool Industrial School had owing t-o the increased cost of living increased their charge by Is. in re- spect of each boy, while Bristol had in- timated that the proportion of the de- ficiency in the working of their school which Llanelly was expected to pay was L2 5s. lid. It was decided to approve of the in- crease, and also to pay the committee's proportion of the deficiency at Bristol. Medical Inspection. I Coun. W. E. Clement asked how the medical inspection cf the school was car- ried out in the absence of the Committee's medical officer, having regard to the large demand on the services of the local doctor*. The Health Committee of the Corporation had been considering the ad- visability of appointing a lady assistant 1 to deal not only with the Health Com- mittee's worh but also that of the Infant Welfare as they saw no hope of having Dr. Francis back for some time to come. Cioiin. D. Jennings: If you appoint a lady assistant it will be a gor,d thing for the town. The Chairman: It will be a boon, bp- cause it will mean relieving some of the doctors of their work. After some discussion, the question was deferred pending the decision of the I:oiilt-i Committee. For Defective Children. I Lady Howard called attention to the case of a girl who was mentally deficient and explained that the Mentally Defi- ciency Committee of the County Council were going to take over a workhouse, probably Narberth, for the purpose of housing imbeciles who were doing harm in their present surroundings. This was a case for such an institution, but the Committee had not yet received the ap- proval of the Local Government Board. Teachers and Ambulancc Association. I A letter was read from Miss Brodie, the Commandant of the Stebonheath Hospital stating that as the number of men at present m the hospital was 13' she was fiuding it extremely difficult to get nurses. Last year the Committee were good enough to allow the teachers who were members cf the St. John Am- bulance Brigade to go to Porthcawl Military Hospital, and she w ould be glltd to know whether they would allow one on ckity each week at Stebonheath. On the motion cf the Mayor it was decided to accede to the application. At stcbsniieath. I A letter was also read from Sir Herbert I Lewis of tllC St. John Ambulance Associ ation stating that the walls of some of the rooms at Stebonheath, and especially of the corridors were in a bad condition. The distemper seemed to be peeling off, due either to dampness or bad workman- ship. It was decided to ask the Stebonheath Building Committee to report on the matter next Wednesday after consult- ation with the architect and contractors. The H.E. School. I The Headmaster of the Higher Ele- mentary School wrote to say he con- sidered it his duty to report that in the absence of a successor to the late Mr. Gravelle as teacher of geography and Miss Price, who was home ill, the school being extremely full, the work had suf- fered through disorganization. The Mayor: We are waiting for the Staffing Committee. Vote of Condolence. The Mayor in moving a vote of con- dolence with the Clerk on the sudden death of his brother, said the deceased gentleman removed from Llanelly a good many rears but old Llanelly ites re- membered and respected him as they held his parents in affectionate regard. Coun. D. Jennings seconded the motio/i which was passed in silence.
