! ._-WHITE ELL.IHANT?I
.WHITE ELL.IHANT? I j Swansea Guardians and I Dryma, House. ) At the Swansea Workhouse Committee- j on Wednesday, Mrs. H. D. Williams in the chair, the question of a feeble-minded boy was discussed, and it was staged that the authorities wanted to send him to Drymiuu House. The relatives, however, were not willing for him to go away, as, if he was sent to the Drymma House they would not be able to visit him. Mrs. Harris moved that he should re- main where he was, and not be sent away, stating that the boy was indispens- able as a baker's assistant in the Work- house. Mr. Dewitt, in supporting Mrs. Harries, e-aid that Drymma House was nothing but a white elephant," and that no one should be sent theere unless they „ were quite strong and able to do hard work, as they would have to do.

TRIBESMEN OUT
TRIBESMEN OUT Attack on British Convoy. LONDON, Thursday. According to an Afghanistan telegrab: An attack on our outposts by tribesmen at Buluches is reported. Hand to hand fighting took place, and fairlyr heavy losses were inflicted on our troops. The attack arose out of an attempt to interfere with a British convoy which the tribesmen knew to be passing. This illustrates the fact that although peace with Afghanistan was signed on Friday last, troubles on the north-wes- tern frontier are not yet at an end.- Press Association.

THE WELGOMI RAIN. But Only a Very, Very Little Fall. It was only a very little, but it wae truly welcome. The tiny 6riols fell on the thirsty earth, and the little blades Ql weary yellow grase sucked them up ae fast a6 they ML The trees, unable to derive much sustenance from the parched ground, turned every leaf into a cup and drank the drops with the greed of a des>?rt traveller..

As to tba comperciaf value of the rain to the farmer, and the manufacturer who depends on water power, we may write it down as nil. A DPWNPOUR SOON? "Just a. trace — probably about a hundredth of an inch," Mr. Walter Webber said it was—not a very substan- tial addition to the tenth of an inch the month has so far given Swansea. But Mr. Webber. of whom, probably 'the holiday- makers will not t nice things, expects a good downpour before long from the thundery, cloudy conditions prevailing.

I SHELL I-NTH- E DUST. I Thoughtless Swanscaites Ask For Trouble. [ A few Swansea people have apparently been dumping their war souvenirs with, out any thought as to the injury they may cause others. Men handling house refuse a day or two 65no ust prevented a shell—a nine pounder-froni passing into the des- truct.or. and a sraa ler one, said to have been used in connection with "mines, was [ also discovered. These must, have been carefully concealed in rubbish bins or they would probably have been feea by (he Council employ:? before they reached the destructor, and while the chance ?If f'H sq?a-rse at! a nine pounder ?etiin? .thenare-uce' usjoot-icwi the risk is by no means inconsiderable, and is great if the ammutiieation • is smaller. The person who dumped" his nine pounder might saa;ly have caused at least very serious injury to Council employes It will be seen from our advertisement columns that the Borough Engineer is asking that there shall be no repetition, and that such ammunition shall be handed over to the police.

OUR BRAZILIAN VISITORS. 1 Civic Welcome. The Brazilian commercial delegation, who arrived in Swansea on Wednesday i evening, were accorded a civic reception at the Guildhall on Thursday. The dele- gation consists of Dr, Souza Bandeira, M.l.C.E., representing the iron and steel industries, Dr. Robert Simonsen, abbat- toir, refrigeration, etc., Senor Felix Guis- ard, textile industries, Dr. Ferreira Al- meida, civil engineer, Dr. Hannibal Porto, Amazon trade, and Senor hoie ?wtef.ary; and attached to the delegation fwe-ro Messrs. R. J. McKellan, W. S. Bar- clay, G Berks, T. Askworth, and J. Ha&fceldl>u: In addition to members of the Council and omcials, the following were present representing comercial interests:—Messrs L. E. Prettre (French Consul), Le Bars, -E. P. Jones, H. de Sousa (Brazilian Con- sni). H. de Silva (Portuguese Consul). F. W. Gilbertson (president. Metal Ex- change), E. B. Hills (secretary of Federa- tion of British Industries), W. Tnrpin (Richards, Turpin, Shipping, Ltd.), R. Francis, E. Ruch and Suberton* (English Crown Spelter Co.), and E. W. Stewart (British Mannesmann). I. MAYOR'S WELCOME. u. The Mayor (Councillor W. H. Miles), extended a very hearty welcome, and re- ferred to the great compliment to Swan- ftea in being selected as the one place, in this part of the country for a visit. There was a number of industries of various character which would impress, and pos- sibly instruct the visitors. Swansea gratefully recognised the fact that Brazil was the first part of South America to enter in with the Allies in the great war. He referred to the possibility of increased trade relationships between Brazil and this country. Brazil was a country of S^eat possibilities cknd capable of great developments in minerals, timber and ag- riculture. For some considerable time there had been trade relations between the two countries, and the Consul in Swansea had (mid that before the war there was a direct mail service bet-ween Swansea and Brazil. Swansea would be glad to see that renewed as early an pos- sible in the future. I BRAZILIAN TRADE. Replying on behalf of the delegation. 'I ,Dr. Souza Bandeira thanked the town and Mayor of Swansea. It was nlways i srood to find when visiting a town some natural feature which would remind one of one's native country." I was surprised to sea the likeness between your boautiul bay and, that at (here the speaker gave a name, which was not quite distinct at the end of the room). Swansea, he was told, was one, of the largest metallurgical I districts in the world. Before the war Brazil used to receive from Swansea many *»^s»dwcts, especially patent fuel and tin sheets, and. they hoped that in the near future Swansea's exports to Brazil w-ould g?e&tly increase. And we hopo that the Aliips that will go there will come back with our exports to this country. We have iron ores, we have timber and many other -prod nets we *an supply, you with," added Dr. Bandeira. The Mayor remarked that as the dele. gation had arr¡ged to visit Messrs. Ivitiat and Sbh? works, the present function would not be prolonged. He hoped to :séé- the- company present at 'lunch.

-'II IN MUMBLES ROADS. J
I IN MUMBLES ROADS. J [Where the Big Craft Will Lay-t J Neither the Corporation nor Harbour i Trust authorities have as yet received ] any official notification as to the detinite date of the visit of the Fleet to Swansea. The berthing places of the larger ships will, of course, be the Mumbles Roads, where there is ample depth of water and absolute safe anchorage. Some of the warships possess 6uch tre- mendous beams that will prohibit their 1 being docked at any of the docks in the Bristol Channel, but several of the, smaller craft can be accommodated in the King's dock if expediency demands such a couree. The regrettable feature in connection with the great naval visit is that Swan- sea at the present time cannot boast of having any passenger boats whereby the public would be enabled to inspect the Fleet. No doubt some of the up-channel- owned pleasure stoamers will, for the occasion, arrange to visit Swansea, and run special trips during tbd.a.ta.oi tho Flpet, in Swansea Bay, and Mr. David James, the manager of the Mumbles and Swansea Railway, will with his custom- ary foresight make special train arrange- ments, giving the Swansea public and visitors an opportunity of viewing the Fleet from the Mumbles Pier and ad- joining bays, from whence an admirable and uninterrupted view of some of Eng- lacii's finest warships can be obtained. Efforts had been made recently by local gentlemen, including Lieut. J. Hodgens, O.B.E., to get such visits, and to see Swansea included.
