I (jiit i'roiU New York. I I STAR SPANGLED BANNER FOR LLANELLY. '"Hands across tho sea"—from New J York to Lbnelly. It was the privilege of j the Rotary Club of Llanelly to receive on j Thursday night the gift of a handsome Star spangled banner from the Rotary Club of New York. The flag is a beauti- ful specimen, of full size, and surmounted bv the American eagle. It was handed over at the Stepney Hotel by Rotarian Home-Morton, past president of the j British Association of Rotary Clubs. Prior to the presentation, dinner was served to a large company included in which was a number of ladies. Ald. D. James Davies presided, and after the loyal toasts had been honoured, he sub- mitted the toast of "The guest of the evening," which was received with en- thu-siasm. Speaking in response, Mr. Home- Morton gave an interesting account of the growth of the Rotary movement in this country, and what it had accom- plished, and was accomplishing across the Atlantic. Llanelly was the twenty-first town in Great Britain to receive a gift of a banner. Behind this gift was the hearty gccd-will of the great people who had come into the war at a critical moment and helped to ,save civilization. When the Rotarians were received by President Wilson at Washington, they assured him that Rotary would be behind him in any movement which he would take up for tho good of humanity. The President's reply was that he needed no assurance of that kind because he was fully aware of what Rotary Clubs were doing all over the country. Great Britain had its difficul- ties to-day, nor was America without its serious problems. What was wanted was tc cement the relations between the two great countries, because it appeared as though Providence had decreed that the peace and progress of the world was to be safeguarded for ever by the English- speaking peoples. Our responsibility therefore was a great one and it was not to be lightly undertaken. Rotary Clubs had a great part to play in this and were in a unique position to co-operate with their American colleagues in establishing the reign of concord and goodwill. Of course, allowance had to be made for differences of temperament. Climatic conditions made the Yankee a more vola- tile subject than the average Briton, but deep down was a sincere regard which was fully reciprocated on this side. He handed to the Llanclly Clul) the banner not merely a.s an expression of fli. wili of the New York Club, but also of the good-will, fellowship and friendship of all the other clubs throughout the United States.

Water Street Idyll
Water Street Idyll WOMAN CAUSES A MIDNIGHT ROW. At the Police Court yesterday, before Mr. R. Guest, Hannah Rebecca Healy (26), living in Water street, was pro- ceeded against for being drunk and dis- orderly in Water street on Thursday night. P.C. 88 stated that at 11.45 p.m. he saw the defendant very drunk outside her house in Water street. She was shout- ing and swearing at the top of her voice, and quarrelling with her husband, and a large crowd gathered round. Witness warned her several times to get into the bouse, but she refused, and he had her locked up. Defendant, who pleaded not guilty, strongly repudiated the statements of the officer that she was drunk. "You speak the truth" she said. "Re- member, there is a God above. I swear I was not drunk. I only had two glasses of beer." In her statement defendant said: "The J 3olicemen treated me shamefully. I'm vll bruises after the way they handled ne." Supt. Jones: Do you deny being drunk -Yes, sir. Did you have anything at all to drink? -Well, sir, I had two glasses of beer. j Have ycd ever been drunk ?—Yes, sir, once. I Haven't the police had occasion to come to your house often on aoeount of your misconduct ?—No, sir; that was because my husband was beating me. You said the police had been rough to you. Wasn't that because you were struggling and kicking ? And didn't you jamb your arm in the cell door to resist going in ?—That's why you had the bruises. Defendant: Well, it wasn't my place to ¡ be inside the cell. j Supt. Jones reported previous convic- tions for various offences, viz., cruelty to II children, using obscene language, and drunkenness. A fine of 12s. was iinposed, time being allowed defendant to find the money.

:iI;tJ&.¡.: 4.: t, ')* It is Said That some Bolshie' orators were treated rather roughly at a local works on Mon- day. That the cold water douche did not quite agree with their fiery tempcrameats That there were gay times at a local household recently. That J- was quite bewildered by the persistency with which the young lady of the family urged him to come and hear her play the piano. That a stranger would likewise have been bewildered had he chanced to enter the house in the early hours of the morn- ing. That a tram motor-man and a clerk i were interested in a recent boxing chal- lenge. That the electrically disposed gentle- man had a close shave Eh, "what ? That a young maiden who has recently made her home at Burry Port, has a large choice of admirers. That her thrilling tales of adventures in the "Waacs" are captivating the hearts of the "young bloods." That after all, a rolling .stone gathers no "moss." That two dashing young youths had an amusing experience in New road on Sunday evening. That the manner in which one leapt from a ten foot wall was worthy of an audience of more than a quintette of young ladies. That the movements of his friends amongst the rustling bushes were quite burglarious in their stealth. That a young lady (who by the way, is not a stranger to this column) was very conspicuous in Stepney street on W ed- nesday evening, carrying her bathing "togs." That to all appearances she was re- turning from a bathe, but oh we know a thing or two. That a certain "Dockite" has entered the ranks of ye discoverers of the identity of the author of this column. That we blush when lie says that the "It is Saidist" is a d- greater mystery than the repudiated Sherlock Holmes. That our friend (?) is of the opiniou that we have "cubs" all over his district. The answer is in the negative. That an exciting "yarn" entitled "Three ladies and a cat" may shortly be published in our columns. That this most entrancing story deals with the efforts of the ladies to eject a prowling tom-cat from' their bedroom. That it will certainly convince anyone of the relationship between the tiger and the cat. That two young ladies from the vicinity of Station road thought of alternating the "glad eye" with facial contortions. That their initial venture near Pare Howard on Sunday with this 'attractive' bait was apparently a failure. That they now contemplate colouring their visages, hoping thus to attract the bhoys. That a young lady was rather shabbily treated by her oost beau the other even- ing. That in the vicinity of Dafen he left her on her lonesome—in the dark, too. That 6be made a bee-line for the car route and thence home a sadder, yet a wiser girl. That patrons of the 'poetry of motion' are busy preparing for the coming season. That the rush is already commencing for dancing shoes. That a local tradesman had no end of trouble with his "false pearls" while on holidays some time ago. ) That he is rather grieved at the loss of a "Bradbury" in having the teeth sterilized That a rumour reaches our ears that a flippant young lady was responsible for all this. That some young ladies at a local drapery establishment are not likely to forget a trip to the Mumbles in a hurry. That a "May"-pole dance under the "Olive" tree was only one of many amusing events.
