MEADOW TO BE PURCHASED. DECISION OF PARISH MEETING. (Exclusive to the " W eekly P ress/’) Mr. Pirie: £7 or £8 for the season would I not pay for the damage to the turf. Mr. J. B. Waldy admitted that the I parish possessed one of the finest cricket I grounds in the neighbourhood, but it I could not charge admission. A playing I field was wanted. There was no place for I football, sports, or a flower show, where I ** gate money ” could be taken. It was I only right that the football club should Tiie opportunity of acquiring five acres have a , place where it could play, of land in the heart of Cranlcigh for the i The amount that the club paid for the Grey* purposes of a recreation ground has not, hound meadow, £6 a year, would more been neglected. At a parish meeting, in ; than pay the rates and taxes. The extra the Village Hall on Wednesday night, a t Strips which had been thrown in by the large majority favoured the scheme recom*i owners would provide several tennis mended by the Parish Council. A motion1 grounds, ’which could be let to properly* to adjourn the meeting for a month in order to secure a larger attendance was f defeated. About fifty parishioners were present. On account of his personal interest, in the mutter, Mr, F. W arren, chairman of the Council, relinquished the 1 chair in favour of Sir Gerald Chadwyck Healey, Other councillors present were :: Messrs. A. Parsons, P. II. Attwell, J. B. • Waldy, and F. A. Wood. Explaining the object of the meeting,. Sir Gerald said that the important ques- (ion did not so much concern Cranleigh at present as Crnnlcigh in the future, when it had grown to be a much bigger place.: constituted clubs on payment of a certain rent. It was not the idea to use it as a recreation ground, with footpaths, and keep it in order at the expense of the rate* payers. Mr. Wood emphasised the value of such a ground to the school-children; He would like to sec the ground used as an adjunct to the school playground. Mr. Pirie pointed out that the Cranlcigh bowling,' tennis, football, and cricket clubs were in debt. He could not sec how the parish could derive an income from such clubs. The Chairman said that details might be borne in mind. At present the only question was whether the village wanted the ground. In reply to Mr. Stedman, the chairman said that the money would not be lost even if the ground should prove a " white elephant.” For some time the Parish Council had1 1 been considering n scheme which was really divided into two halves, and which 11 it viewed in a statesmanlike and far* I reaching way as being coupled together, i It was to provide a site which would, enable Cranleigh to build its village hall, 11 when times were a little easier and the Chancellor of the Exchequer was not quite so rapacious, and, at the same time, provide a recreation ground for the village. I Everybody would admit that a recreation I ground for a village and population of the size of Cranleigh to-day was very necessary. Where were they to get a space to develop the ground? It must not be too far away from the village; and the unbuilt-over spaces which lay in its heart were rapidly being absorbed. If Cranlcigh continued to grow it was very important for the community to have its open space in tho heart of the village. • A meadow adjoining Cmnlcy House had been. presented by the late Mr. F. Greene, of Rydinghurst, as a site far the village hall. Behind Cranley House, stretching almost to the railway line, were meadows where it was proposed to establish a recreation I ground. The Parish Council was of I opinion that the whole of the Greene Trust | meadow was not necessary for the village hall, and that the ground not required should be sold, and the proceeds used for the development of the village hall and, possibly, the recreation ground. The land suggested for the recreation ground could be bought for £800. It was considered nmply sufficient to furnish plenty of room ] for recreation_and sports.. It would have to be developed slowly.’ Some time must elapse before there could be, say, a sports or a football ground and tennis courts, but they would come if the people of Cranlcigh really wanted them. There was the sum of £1.361 4s.9d, proceeds on the sale of Crnnley House, lying on deposit. The Parish Council proposed that £S00 of the amount should be used to purchase the ground. On the other side of the ques- | tion it must be remembered that a certain amount of disturbance and noise from football matches would be created. Then there was a narrow lane through one end of the ground. If there were football matches it would be necessary to screen off the path or lose part of the 11 gate.” Sir Gerald” Had ho bins. He wanted the monev to be applied for the parish as the parisfi wished, providing it was reasonable. There would not be another opportunity of buying that land. If it was not secured the village would have to consider where it could obtain a recreation ground. Mr. F, A. Wood said that the hands of the Parish Council were virtually tied. I The money could be used only for a recreation ground or for a village hall. It was I proposed to have an entrance to the ground next the site for the village hall. Could there be a subscription to erect a fence? The Chairman : 1 understand that timber !•» available for a fence. That question might be left. When the time comes and more money is wanted, Cranlcigh will put its hand into its pocket. Mr. G. Weller asked if £800 was the *' rock-bottom ” price. The Chairman: That is the price to-day. Mr. Wood: A piece of land has been added owing to the keen bargaining efforts of the Council. Mr. G. M. Pirie felt that there was no question about Cranlcigh needing a village hall very badly. A recreation ground was another question. Could not the Parish Council beautify the common? Some of the money might be used'to “ do up ” the footpaths. (Laughter.) The Chairman: I am afraid you cannot spend any of the Cranlcy House money on them. Mr. E. Stedman considered that the poor attendance evidenced the fact that the people of Cranlcigh were not interested in thc.m.itter. Crnnleigh already possessed the finest sports ground in the south of England. Surely it had more than sufficient ground for all purposes if it were only developed. What public body, what club in the parish, really required a recreation ground? Voices: The football club. Mr. Stedman asserted that the cricket, tennis, and bowling clubs had grounds. The cricket club was'thc laughing stock of the surrounding villages for the way it was conducted. (Laughter.) Mr. J. Allen, secretary of the Football Club, said that his club had experienced the greatest difficulty in obtaining a ground for the last three seasons. It had been turned out of Brookmrnd and forced to go to the Greyhound meadow, but that was not satisfactory. The proposed ground was Ideal. The football club had not a home. It was a case of wandering about from year to, year. Eventually it would be on tho rocks. Mr. Pirie: It means that the football club are to take over the ground and, therefore, parishioners will have to pay to go Into their own ground. The Chairman : The club would not hnvc any rights to tho ground except such as It would obtain during n football season by paying for the use of the ground. Such money would go to keep the ground In good order. Mr. Stedman said that the Parish | Council, which now seemed keen on providing sport, had done its best to' exclude sportsmen from Cranleigh. Asked whether he hnd any observations to make, as one of the oldest residents, Mr. S. Rowland replied in the negative, adding, ” I am not a football player, myself.” (Laughter.) Mr. Pirie moved that, in view of the poor attendance, the meeting should be adjourned for a month. Mr. R. Donkin seconded. Six voted for the resolution and 21 against. Mr. W. P. Furband then proposed a resolution approving and accepting the scheme, whereby the site for the village hall and - recreation ground would be secured for the parish, and approving of a portion of the money in hand, arising from the sale of Cranley House, being used for the purpose of purchasing the land. Major Eric Bonham seconded, and the motion was carried by 28 votes to]4.' The Parish Council was thanked for having considered and introduced the scheme. The Chairman added that he would like to make Mr. Stedman quite happy about one thing. If the land did not ''fill the bill ” as a recreation ground the village would get the £800 back again in the course of a year or two quite easily. The value would not shrink quite as much as a national war loan. Mr. Wood said that the Council hoped to obtain some place where men could have a bath, and ” kiddies ” learn to swim. Mr. Warren explained that he hod kept a neutral attitude in the matter of purchasing the ground. GOOD CHARACTER CONE TEMPTED BY £5 NOTES. Ernest Alexander Pickard, axed 27, a gardener, who had been lodging at Bowling Green Cottage, Guildford, was again before the borough justices on Monday, when he was sent to gaol for two months* hard labour for stealing £100, the money of Mrs. Clapp, proprietress of the Snalford Park Hotel, near Guildford. On February 3rd Mrs. Clapp, as proved in evidence last week, handed Pickard, who was employed at the hotel os an under-gardener, a cheque for £100. to be changed into £5 notes. Prisoner, who had cycled into Guildford. obtained the notes and then disappeared. Three days later ho was arrested in Somersetshire. ' P.C. Roberts, of the Somerset force, told tho magistrates on Monday that ho saw prisoner near , Yeovil on February 6th. Asked if his name was Pickard, prisoner did not reply, but ho admitted that ho had served in tho Canadian Army. Taken to his undo’s house near a t hand, and told that ho would bo searched, prisoner produced a packet containing- twenty £5 notes. Prisoner said, "I took this from tho London City and Midland Bank, Guildford. on Friday, February 3rd. about 3 p.in. I took a cheapo from the hotel to gel the money. I didn't go back with it. I had tho. temptation to take it. but I was going, back with it next Monday (tho day ho was arrested). I took it in tho first place to go to Canada, to join my brother. On second thoughts I thought I would go to my uncle's in Somorset for a holiday. T don't know what made mo do it—I've nover been in trouble before. I havo had dealings with a lot of money in my time.” Enquiries, said the Chief Constablo (Mr. W. Y. Nicholas), had proved that Pickard, who hailed from Exetor, had hitherto had an unblemished character. WHERE THE DEVIL NOT. IS Mr. H. Prosser Chanter, who Is wellknown to many, old Godnlming residents, considers the most remarkable name was that borne by a young woman In Godaiming forty years ago. It was “ Martha Hogsflesh.” A GUILDFORDIAN’S VISIONS. Writing to the “ Daily Chronicle,” ” Retlaw ” (obviously " Walter "), of Guildford, remarks that he lias experienced pictures in the darkness for many years: *■* They never appear until my eyes arc closed, however dark the room may bo; they arrive without effort on my part, and they arc only occasional visitants. They are chiefly of people. The background -is always bright and pleasing, and illuminated as if by a summer sun. ' The figures pass by In an endless stream —faces very distinct, every feature clear.. Every type of face is portrayed. The procession includes men, women and children. The dresses are pleasing, and of the present period. The most inexplicable part of these experiences is that, although each person that passes is marked with a strong individuality, hot one is known to me in real life, and the same face never passes twice. The occurrences are therefore ;not of the nature of dreams, which are nearly always connected with faces or circumstances with which one is familiar; and, further, I am awake at the time. There are no distressed or worried passers-by; the faces, although so divergent in type, bear a happy, contented expression. The whole display is like the usual promenade on a pier, or in a park, but with all the sin. suffering, and poverty wiped out. There is. no greed, cunning, or arrogance on the faces of the people. It Is, Indeed, as if the devil were shut out.M . Now is the time to select yo,\ir new Cycle JACKSON invites intending purchasers to inspect his new machines.

Wild men and women eat human flesh I not because they relish it. but because j thereby they imagine that they will give j themselves the qualities of mind and | body possessed Ly the people they conI some! So declared Mr. Edward Lovett, of I j Croydon, a member of tho Folk Lore I J Society, in a lecture on “ Dolls" at Brett’s on Wednesday. Mr. Lovett's de-| J claration was apropos to the display o f: a lantern slide illustrating a bun in tho rough shape of a human figure, as sold at Richmond. Surrey, bavages. said Mr. Lovett, ate missionaries and travellers only because they regard ( them us good, fine men. and because,in partaking of their flesh they imngine that thev will inherit the fine qualities possessed bv the slaughtered men. In I tho days of his youth Mr. Lovett recalled I seeing at fairs gingerbread representations of Nelson. Wellington, and other I " big pots,” as he phrased it. Fnthors I and mothers used to buy tho figures for I their sons . to eat.' Tim hope was that, I by consuming them, the lads might be I given the qualities of the man represented— that they, might become second | Wellingtons or Nelsons! Mr. Lovett's lecture described and illustrated dolls which he has collected from various parts of tile world—Egypt, Africa, | Europe and elsewhere. The first dolls. mi id be. were made not for. children, but by children. " Doll ” means . “ imago.” Synonymous, therefore, is it with "idol.” Tho original dolls fulfilled a necessary part in religious ceremonial, as substi-1 tutes. When a high Egyptian died his I slaves were killed and buried with him, | in order that they might accompany him to tho nothcr world. Such a practice naturally reduced the population. Therefore it was that representations of tno human figure—in other words, dolls— were mndo us substitutes for the slaves, to to buried with their dead lord. Mr. Lovett emphasised tho fact' that tho same plan of minting the limbs of dolls was followed thousands of years ago as to-day. Tho small German wooden dolls, known as ” Dutch dolls,” with movablo limbs, used to be sold in England, before tho war, at the rato of four a penny; and even to-day they aro being made in Germany,' to be sent to England, at a price ridiculously below that for which they can bo purchased by English people. Mr. F Lasham, president of the Natural History Society, under whoso regis tho lecture was delivered, regretted tho existence of a regulation which prevented Guildford school children attending such educational lectures in school hours. Mr. Lovett, commenting upon tho embargo, deplored tho facts that children were not being educated aright, and that they .were- not afforded facilities to cducata- themselves by inspecting, tho contents of museums. On tho Continent thoro nro alongside cases in museums steps to onnblo children to examine the contents. In no museum in England is there such a facility. Indeed, childron wero almost warned away from museums, which should be of far more value to young people than to old. Grown-ups h ad stabilised their characters, and not all the museums in tho world would alter them. SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CONCERT. Tho " Chiddingfold Suite for String Orchestra," by Mr. Thomas F. Dunhill, was tho chief work porformod by tho Guildford Symphony Orchestra a t tho subscription concert in the Borough Ilall on Wednesday afternoon. This music, which is of a very charming nature, was composed by Mr. Dunhill for tho Chiddingfold Pageant, which was produced last June. Sinco thon Mr. Dunhill has arranged tho music in tho form of a suite, which was given a first performance on Wcdno-day afternoon. The suite is dedicated to Mr. W. Graham Robertson, author of tho " book " of the Chiddingfold Pageant. Tho suite comprises (1) n delightful March-prelude, founded on an old Surre y , folk-tune. "Venus,and Adonis": (2) dainty music announcing tho arrival of dryads and fauns; (3) tho mummers arrive: (i) tho vision of Richard Peyto (glassmakor of Chiddingfold); and (5) a merry Mnypolo dance. Tho music, expressing tho vision of Richard, Peyto is the most beautiful. In tho vision the old glass-maker, just beforo his death, sees tho perfect stainedglass window, more beautiful than that which it had been hi- life's ambition to make. The solemn music finely interprets tho spirit of tho vision. Tho orchestra was splendidly conducted by Mr, Claud Powell, and Mr. Dunhill, who was in tho audience, shored in tho hearty aplause. Mr. Stanloy F. Blagrove and Mr. Manus O'Donnell, both professors a t tho School of Music, gave a fine porformanco with the orchestra, of a concerto for two violin* and strings by Bach. Their finished, stylo of playing was noticeahlo. An " English Suite " for string orchestra, by Sir Charles Parry, was delightfully1 played by tho orchestra, tho " I n Minuet stylo*' and " A ir " being particularly charming. A tuno from tho cantata "Sleepers Wako" (Bach), arranged by Mr. Maurico S. Blower, of tho School of Mus ic, was also well played, and Mr. Frederic Bontoft, professor at tho School of Music, conducted ono of bis own compositions—a protty " EIegy for Strings" Tho concert deserved a larger audience, and Mr. Claud Powell appoaled for greator support. Messrs. Andrews & Co. were, as usual, rcsponsible for the arrangements at the hall. H? GOLF. GUILDFORD CLUB'S MONTHLY COMPETITION. Nineteen competed. Result:— Gro». H ’cap. Net. Winner: Col.

It bore an endorsement " G. H. Emery.’1 Mr-. Ivnicry asked witness 1 0 cash ir. The 11 umcv was obtained and handed to Mr-. Kmerv. A few days later witness n-erhed the ciicque from Lloyds Bank, Guildford. It was then marked, ” Orders not lu pay.’* Later, witness again presented the cheque. Ernest Henry Matthews, of Weaver trig Lodge, \Y her well Road, Guildford, deputy accountant at Lloyds Bank, produced a copy of the bank's record. The cheque was drawn on Barclays Bank, Woking. John McNeil, of Lismorr, Wodcland Avenue, Guildford, cashier at Bn relay - Hank,. Woking, deposed to the return of the cheque and. to its further receipt on December 23rd. An entry of transactions nn that day showed that a cheque for £55 had been paid 1 0 one “ Emery," Stephen 11. Harper, of London, late assistant manager of the Albion Hotel, sonin-law of Mr. Staler, and a friend of defendant, -aid that he went to Guildford and saw defendant on January 15th. Wit* no— said that he had overheard a conversation that if the matter was not settled tin: police would be notified. As a friend, witness advised defendant to pay the money. Defendant thanked witness for journeying 1 0 Guildford, and said that he would sec Mr. Hunt the next morning and settle the matter. On the following Saturday witness again saw defendant, on behalf of Mr Slater, and told him that if the sum were not paid proceedings would be instituted. Defendant promised to see Mr Hunt on the following Monday and pay the cash. l-rediTirk John Collins, nf Glrnwood, Parnli un Road, Guildford, clerk 10 Mr. II.

On Friday Mr. Emery had called at Mr. Hunt’s office and paid £45, receipt for which he produced. Mr. Turner asked the Bench, ill view ol tile fact that the money had now lircn paid, anil that the prosecutor said he would like to withdraw the charge, to ileal with defendant in that way, and allmv the charge to be withdrawn. Chairman: Have you any remark* lo make nn this, Mr,, Hunt? Mr. Muni: My position is purely a professional one. This prosecution was started, and I have called the necessary evidence, which entitles the magistrates to send the case for trial. It i* true that the imrnrv has been rereiveil, and that, no doubt, will go in miHg.il ion of the -entenro, hut, a- a professional man, 1 make no application. It is entirely fnr the jii%|ice< to -:iy whet Iter they are prepared lo withdraw the cose or not. After a short retirement, the chairman announced that the Bench ron*iderorl the pro-reniloii were amplv justified in submitting the case 1 0 the f'ourt, but, as there was considerable doubt whether a jurv would convict, defendant would be ili-charged.

Ar^vle men wi-re fitumnil by fortune, in -ecu ring victory by the oild goal in -i ten. The conviction ib.il llie PlymciUih men would need to display rheir best form on Saturday to avoid di l< at. Tlify ilid all that ivin expected of them, ,uid then were not .able to nirompli-lt uh.it they hoped lo ncconipiidi. It w.i- i great game before a big crowd —one nl the biggest crowds of tin: s»t*a-oil —on a cajntal turf, which wa- a trifle trejcheron?. only in one corner. It was, loo, .1 great achievement fur the United uain to win. There was not any fluke in the victory. There was -uflicieni ,-u|>criorily of the United men in the clo-ing quarter-hour of play to justify the a—rrtion that if Guild* ford Ji.nl won by three or four goals to one goal they would not have been flattered. * * * i'hmuuth started in dashing style, and within three minutes they were a goal ahead by a fasl ground allot from the centre. Guildford carried the ball to tin1 other end, and a corner was forced. Thompson placed ilie hall well, but it was cleared io Go wan, who, with a nice drive, planted it into the corner of the Plymouth net. Mow ih« crowd cheered! 'Lite remainder of the first half uas blank. T here were time- when Plymouth pie--cd; there were other times when Guildford attacked hotly. tn ihe lir>t few minutes of the second half the United secured their winning lead, per Milk, (he Guildford Club's amateur, who was again assisting the United. A shot by him from a distance of a score of yards flashed by two Plynlouih backs anil reached home. * * * Cooper was sorely tested afterwards, the Plymouth men playing with ihc keenest determination, ulmo-l desperation ; but all -lint- wore alike to him. Even when a I’Lmouih man drove at goal from a distance of five yards only he was there with open hands to receive the ball. And when the ball fell under the bnr from a corner kick he fisted it out of the danger /one. Yes, Cooper is al present at the lop ol his form. * « « For die last fifteen minutes Guildford subjected the Plymouth goal to a hot peppering. Quinn drove in three " fi.ir«* ox the attack. A forward got ..u.iy Irom the kick-off, and -cored in the fir at minute of the second half. 4 * ♦ Guildford still per-eve red. and, though they seemed unable lo cope with the condition- as well as (he home team, they wit-' able lo take ihe lend. Grove ran the ball right up and centred, for Dean to -core Guildford's -econd goal. 4 4 4 Brig hi on went all out for an equaliser, and, to be quite candid, there scented cvi’rv chance of them getting it. During this >tage of the game ih*- L'nitid se-cnuxl -carV' ly able to raise a gallop. Shots wrre peppered in on “ Jock ” Cooper from all •mgb-, but, fortunately, he was in great form. All shots tccimd to go alike to him. When the equalising goal did occur it was an unexpected shot of! an oppo-ing forward's knee. In ihr circumstance it is hardly necessary to criticise the li'-nil. The weather was loo bad to allow good football, and the playing Conditions must have been very uiii'oinliirtahle. W][|i the wind during the first half (lu* Guildford tram worked like machine. 1'urniiig round, they Lrcanic parts’ of individual?-, liicUiug a hall ahoul.

M EN AN D ^M ATTERS. \ * » • At its last meeting, at Wait! the instigation of the Education Committee, the Town Council decided to sell for £250 land-at Bcllficlds as a site for a proposed new school. We urge the Council, as the Education Authority, to stay its hand. One of the “ cutting ’’. proposals of the Gcudcs’ Committee, in relation to the national expenditure upon education, is-to exclude from school young children below the age of six years. Wc arc given to understand that the number of Guildford boys and girls'w ho would be'excluded from school as the result of such a retrenchment is about 350. It is to accommodate about this number of children that it is suggested a school should be built at Bcllficlds, where there is congestion. It seems to us that if children under the age of six arc not to be permitted to attend school there will be a sufficiency of room in the existing schools, and that a new Bcllfields school will not be required. All that it would be necessary to do would be to rearrange classes and to draft some children to schools other than those they arc at present attending. The saving which would result to Guildford's education budget would be considerable. A new school would cost, probably, £10,000, and it would need to be staffed and maintained. Its cost would, consequently, be heavy. Exclusion of children to the age of six would also, it is believed, necessitate a reduction in the present staff of teachers by, say, six or seven, with’ a consequent reduction in the‘salary list of; it may be, £1,800 or £2,000 a year. Such savings would cover the cost of the new school which, ere long, it is felt, will be necessitated by expansion of the Guildford Park area and Onslow Village, where the population is growing appreciably, and an increased education rate, which, but for the saving mentioned, wo.uld be certain, would be obviated. • • • Templars' The Jubilee of the Lodge Guildford Lodge of Jubilee. the I ndcpendem Order of G o o d Templars is to be celebrated next week. The Lodge was founded on February 10th, so that yesterday (Thursday) was the actual anniversary day. We publish in another page of the Ji'cekty Press today a sketch of the Lodge's history by Mr. Arthur S. )£ vomited, and an article by Mr. ll. Newman, of Morrow, and with them we reproduce a number of portraits of men who have been prominent in the ranks of Good Tcmplnry in Guildford. Mr. Newman Is One of the original members of the Guildford Lodge. Me joined^ it on February 2Jlr«l, 1872. Mis connection with the Lodge, has, however, been broken. Tho only other *' charter ’* member surviving to-dav is Mr. C. J. Parker, who has been a member of the Lodge during the whole of the fifty years. It was not until March 5th, 1873—just over twelve months after the Guildford Lodge was established—that a second Lodge was instituted in Guildford. It was given the name of Stephen Percy, after the Rev. Stephen Percy, who, during his residence in Guildford for over fifty years, had done much for the cause of temperance. Mr. Percy was the pastor of the Congregational Church, then in Chapel Street. The Rev. J. H. K. Percy, of the staff of clergy serving Holy Trinity and St. Mary’s Churches, is his grandson. t « • The degree to which Bowls the game of bowls has Booming, increased in popularity within the last few years in Guildford and the vicinity is evidenced by the fact that a league of ten or a dozen clubs has been established. The initiative was taken by the Guildford Club, which, with the possession of a new full-sized Cumberland turf green, will this year enter upon a new lease of life. How many clubs there are in Guildford and district wc cannot, for the moment, state: probably (here are a score or more. Not all arc eligible to identify themselves with the proposed league, for the reason that they lack three-rink greens, but from Wcybridgc on the one hand to Dorking on the other, and from Farnham to Milford, there arc sufficient clubs to create a strong league and to furnish keen competition. Owing to the fact that Guildford has not possessed a full-sized green, those of its bowlers who have participated in county competitions have been severely handicapped, whilst, of course, neither county matches nor competitions have been possible in Guildford. W ith the provision of a new green, which, after the winter's rains and care, should he in firstclass condition in the summer, we may hope to sec the county bowling authorities turn their attention to Guildford, and to give us a share of the county fixtures. A new fullsized green is also to be provided by the Corporation in Allen House grounds. Unfortunately, the Town Council has decided to “ spoil the ship for a ha’porth of tar ” by electing to make the green of ordinary turf, instead of Cumberland turf. With a green of Cumberland turf open to bowlers unattached to the Guildford Club the probability is that the venture would be selfmaintaining. A green of ordinary turf will not be any better than-— perhaps not so good as—the Castle Grounds green, and wc therefore agree with Mr. W . Froomc that a loss may be expected. Strange, isn’t it, how often authorities will undo with one hand what they do with the other? GU ILD FO RD . Somo couples m iss happiness.— <• O thers buy th o ir Wedding R ises a t S osburt's.

T he extraordinary am ount of unemploym ent occurring durin g the last few month* has seriously drained the resources o f the fund, and at their 'meeting on Tuesday* last, the 14th inst., the com m ittee most reluctantly cam e to the conclusion that, unless their fund was replenished generously and promptly by the public, the relief hitherto given to those in g reat need would no longer be forthcoming. • I For n considerable period the fund Has relied to a great extent upon contribution* from the W ar Distress Com m ittee’ll (vlnd, but as the L ila nee of this fund has already been allocated to the Unemployment Fund no further contribution from this source can be expectcsl. The work done by the comm ittee consists of feesling the children of unemployed, giving grocery tickets to m arried men out of w-ork, nnd providing boots for necessitous children.

THE SURREY WEEKLY PRESS, THIS, THAT, AND THE OTHER. Being a lot too old for ten n is and m uch too young for bowls, I ought really to know b e tte r th a n to com m ent upon e ith e r gam e. In fact, to bo q u ite candid, 1 feel thoroughly ash am ed of m yself fo r even th in k in g of doing such u th in g . H owever, th ere happens to ho one saving clause. e. a e One d o rk night n long tim e ago I was prevailed upon to join a bow ling club, and I even w ent so fa r os to pay th a n n u al su b scrip tio n . T his rem ark ab l occurrence can bo vouched for by tho production of a m em ber’s ca rd an d re ceipt. if necessary. Anyway, being a privileged m em ber of a renow ned bow ling club has its anxieties oven fo r non-playing m em ber Dear readers, you can nil im ngino my sufferings w hen a local councillor rem arked th a t a su b scrip tio n of £2 2s. wo .necessary fo r tho up-keep of such club. Fancy two pounds two shilling for th e joy of rolling wooden balls a t a overgrow n golf b a ll! I t escapes my memory how much paid, but th e very fa c t th a t I did pa proves th a t tho subscription was con sidorably less than two. guineas; probably it was about two shillings. Ilia 1 sounds m ore like my price. However th is is i|iiitc a sm all m nttcr. th e fact rem ain s th a t as a m em ber 1 claim th e rig h t to criticise all bowling greens.

T ru e , th e local ten n is playork would not have noticed th e difference, but some of us would alw ays have h a d an uneasy feeling th a t som ething was wrong. * * * .

W ith th e glint of conq u e st in h is eye, h e lived over nil the g re a t conquests of his career. H e was a t la s t prevailed upon by a ll th e assem bled fam ily to m ake a considered sta te m e n t on tu r f, lie thought th a t a C um berland green reduced (lie clem ent of chance to a m inim um , and th is was an adv an tag e In good players like him self. From th a t m om ent 1 became violently opposed to C um berland tu rf bowling greens. O nce reduce tho possib ility of luck, an d Hie chances of m any nice old gentlem en becoming cham pions will vanish into th in a ir. Of course, tho elem ent of elinnco on an y green could bo, raised to a very high sta n d a rd by a judicious outlay of alcoholic beverages, b u t th is would d ebar any but th e very w ealthy w inning high honours ot tho game. N o! Wo m u st striv e lo keep tho gom e dem ocratic. I’m su re th a t the m em bers of my olub will uphold an y th in g th e h u rtie u ltu ra l councillors do, as long as they prom ise not to m ention th a t £2 2s. su bscription in public again. B u t we m u st get o n : th ere a re other things besides bowling greens an d tennis c o u rts to consider. Tlioro a ro the puddles. How guilty I’ feel th a t once or twice in these articles 1 have directed atte n tio n to these pools of muddy w ater in th e public rouds! Had it occurred to nie th a t th ere m ight bo gardening exp erts on o u r Town Council I should have rem ained silent. You may bo sure th a t some of o u r councillors have been try in g lo im prove th e ir gardening knowledge. In th e course of th e ir resoarchc they probably happened upon a study on rockeries an d artificial lakes. The pool of w ater in to which you an d I walk on d a rk nights a re th e result. Please don'! call them puddles a g a in : they a re a rti ficial lakes. ♦ # ♦ Nmv th a t we know th e tr u th it ii obvious th a t tho.w et patches a re merely p art of n great schem e to beautify ou native h au n ts. Of course, it m u st be adm itted th a t th e places chosen aro in some cases n little inconvenient, b u t we shall soon get used to th a t.

A fter that wo sh all have grass borders nnd flowers llow g ratefu l we ought to be to th e kind gentlem en who a re converting o u r dear o ld borough in to a sylvan retreat. > « * I t m ust not be im agined th a t a scheme of such m agnitude can be prosecuted w ithout n c e rta in am ount of opposition. In fact, it is said th a t on several occasions thoughtless citizens have caused n lot of anxiety by c arry in g some of th o lakes hom e in their.boots. Again, there is said to be some trilling opposition to th e scheme on th e ground of expense. I t has even been suggested th a t nil tho ponds m ig h t bo joined together in nn effort to create th e town a so rt of Venice in Surrey. You m ay bo su re th a t by th e sum m er som ething will be done. A t present nil o u r experts a re a little busy on the bowling greens and tennis courts. No doubt when they have exhausted nil Hie available lite ra tu re on these two subjects they will be able to tu rn th eir atten tio n to other things. I t ’s very wrong to grum ble when we know, o r should know, th a t they ore all doing th e ir best, b u t really th e present scheino of illum ination could surely be im proved. Tho present idea seems to be to place red or w hite lights on the high ground between tho lakes. T his is very nice, and is certain ly a p retty and effective sight. • Y et as tho gardening s tu n ts will cost n lot of money it hardly scorns wise lo, ru n the risk of drow ning i num ber of ratepayers, nnd several liavo had some very narrow escapes. Of course they m ay have paid th e ir rates up to d ate. 1 should n o t d a re to suggest an y th in g to th e co n trary , b u t if they wore drow ned they would be very little use for revenue-raising purposes afterw ard s. * * * F a r be it from me to force m y opinions on thoso who_ a re responsible for the .(Iterations, Yet. if 1 may be allowed to suggest, I should ask either th a t the iglils should be removed altogether, giving, everyone a spprting chance, or lint, they should he Hooted in the centre of th e lakes.

In his sermon th e Ifector considered somo of the characteristics of Caleb Lovejoy, who was honoured in Guild ford, ’nnd especially in St. Nicolai C hurch, where he was baptised and buried, and near where his almshouses were built. Jn 1821 the almshouses were built from the accum ulation of funds, according to tile directions left by Lovojoy. The old Rectory, in Hie tim e when Lovejoy lived—in th e reign of C harles 1.—was lo the south of the liiirch, ns it then wns. By nn agreem ent which had been found, between he Rector and P hilip Lovejoy, Caleb's la th e r, it had been proved thnt they were next-door neighbours. W hether, by accident or design, I lie almshouses were b u ilt very neur tjio place where lovejoy was horn. H is nam e was remembered with gratitude, and many bail lived to bless liis memory. Ho had given n challenge—a clmllengo of love n (hose who enmo afler him to do likewise. I t was m ore common in the bid days than now to build almshouses and schools; w hich would benefit fu tu re fenerations. , Lovejoy. who died nfter ho R estoration, perhaps rem embered lie words of th e old P ray er Book, which, in th e service for th e sick, said. ’ The m inister m u st not forget o r om it o move tlie-sick person to lib erality towards th e poor.” Lovejoy was n [onerous citizen of G uildford, and a /’h ristia n mnn whose hope was set on Ih rist. W h at people always needed was a purpose. There could be no igher motive th a n service, which- ■in i mated Lovojoy — servico to one's umily, one's town, one's country, nnd m ankind.

NICOLAS WARD GREATLY INCREASED IN SIZE. The Provisional Order which is being promoted in Parliament by the Ministry of Health for the purpose of extending the borough of Guildford runs to .twenty pages. The area to be added to the borough, as is already known, includes the Guildford Park housing estate, whereon the Corporation has erected a large number of houses, and - a part of the Onslow M ilage estate—the part which is being developed by. houses. The added area, covering between 600 and 700 acres, is to be added to the St. Nicolas Ward from Oct. 1st next. The councillor eheted for the St. Nicolas Ward on November 1st will therefore be the first councillor to be elected by the burges-o* in the new part of the borough. The same with the Board of Guardians. For County Council purposes the added area will be separated from Worplesdon, to which it is attached at present, and. added to Guildford No. I division, represented on the County Council at present by Mr, Leonard Ellis. It will also cease to form part of the Guildford Petty Sessional Division, and will be policed by the borough. TRADE DIRECTORY. U S E F U L T E L E P H O N E N U M BERS.

" This Board is of the opinion that work equivalent to the amount received should be expected of able-bodied men in receipt of unemployment relief, and it requests the Ministry of Health t<> inform it if there is any authority or power by which it cun give effect to this opinion." So ran a resolution submitP-d, after notice, at Saturday’s meeting of the Guildlord- Board of Guardians by Mr. G. If. Bricrlcy, who contended that" in the matter of unemployment relief the Board was not pursuing the right course. By handing out public money in what was almost a wholesale manner, without requiring any sendee in return, it was practically creating paupers. At any rale, it was m aking men, women, and children absolutely dependent for their livelihood upon doles of public money, and if to give money without any service being demanded in return did not tend to pau|>crisatlon, what did? There wore two aspect* from which the question needed to be viewed. The lint was the m oral; the second the economic. . There could not be any doubt that the system in operation at present tended to lower the morale of the recipients of the ratepayers’ money, and thus to undermine the morale of the community as a whole, for if men who were in work saw that men who had no wdrk were being maintained at the expense of the public they were not likely to fret overmuch if they, too, lost their employment or to bestir themselves to find work. . There was nothing worse, especially for temperamental men, to have nothing to 'which they could turn their hands, and it was not surprising if they took to drinking or offended against the law. The self-respecting man would far rather earn money than be given it. Then there was the economic question. The Board was at present paying in unemployment relief from £50 to £60 weekly. Since the payments commenced it had paid from £1,500 to £1,600. To what extent was the community better off ? Not a half-penny worth. All that the payments had done—though Mr. Bricrlcy did not question their necessity or justice—; was to keep from privation, if not starvation. a number of families in the Union. Not a pennyworth of service had been rendered the public in return for its expenditure of public money. And all the time there was work needing to be done, or work which could be done, in Guildford, Godaiming, Woking, and elsewhere in the Union. At its previous meeting the Board heard of the need of employing men on a recreation ground at Godaiming. It was stated that there was work there for twenty, men. Between 30 and 40 men at Godaiming were receiving unemployment relief. Why could they not be required to work on the recreation ground, nnd thus give in service the value of the money tlicv received from the rates ? They need not be required to give more. To employ them longer than would be needed to discharge their obligation would be to cause them to believe that work would always be provided by the public, and they would he robbed of incentive to look for regular employment elsewhere. The men could be credited even with T rades’ Union rates, for what would it matter so long as they did not receive money beyond thcii* relief allowances ? The public would secure something, even though it might not Inadequate, in return for the public money paid the m en; and the men would feel that, to some extent, they were earning what they received. To continue to pursue the present course was to court disaster. Some days after he had given to the Clerk notice of his resolution, Mr. Brierlcy said that he read in an article by the Right Hon. C. R. Clynes, M.P., the following: " Labour would require in the case of ablebodied persons some service for any State support they may receive. Neither rich nor poor should have -omething for nothing. Organisation on these lines could be pursued by drawing upon the resources and personnel of the uncm. ployed themselves, and without any material addition for new service from the outside. About £150,000,000 have been paid for idleness since the Armistice, and we have not a fraction of wealth of any kind to show for it." " To a large extent," said Mr. C. Jones, seconding, “ we are creating paupers." The average working-man would prefer to work than to idle. Did the Guardians possess power to provide work ? " N o," replied the Clerk (Mr. \V. Geach), but he added that there were Boards which were arranging with local authorities to provide work, and to pay in wages the sum received from the Guardians, which would have been administered in unemployment relief. T o adopt that course in Guildford it would . be necessary to obtain the sanction of the Ministry of Health. Power was afforded by the Local Authorities’ Expense Act of 1887, whereby money spent upon sanctioned work was not linble to eurehnrgc by the district auditor. If sanction were obtained Mr. Gcnch suggested that It might be possible to pay the relief money to the Guildford ami Godaiming Corporations and the District Councils, for them to pav to men in return for work. Mr, Brown (Godalming): We are spending £50 to £60 weekly In unemployment relief. For heaven's sake let tie get £50 to £60 worth of work. Mr. K« W, Cheesman, who felt that the Board would unanimously support the principle of Mr. Brierley’s proposal, suggested that following the words " unemployment relief," the resolution should read, " and the Board decides to seek permission to apply the money at present expended In unemployment relief io useful work provided by local authorities within the Guildford area." Mr. Brlerley accepted the suggestion, and, thus amended: the resolution was unanimously adopted. MOTOR COACH BOOM. WORK FOR GUILDFORD COMPANY, With the approach of spring there )• BURIED AT SEA.

At this time eyes, hearts and prayers were directed towards India, said Mr. Pctors. on account of the visit of tinPrince of Wules and the recent events in that country. The Zenana Ibldc and Medical Mission was one of the oldest missionary societies. Miss Rita Smith, who had been acting ns temporary lion, secretary of the branch, stated that Miss Emily Haddon. who had been the lion, secretary for long, and had been the mainstay of the branch, felt she could no longer continue. T h e branch had also suffered tinloss of Mrs. Locke and Miss Je-*-ie Williamson, hut was glad to welcome the Hon. Mrs. Arthur Gordon, who hud consented to become the new lion, sccre- ‘tnry nnd treasurer. By the kindness of Mrs, Gordon and Mi*s Haddnn. tea was provided a t the close of tho meeting. Miss Haddon had also paid all the expenses, so that all the money collected should go direct to the fund. The lion. Airs. Arthur Gordon announced that £130 were subscribed in Guildford during last year. ^ Seventy years had elapsed since the Z.ii.M.M. was started in n small wav. Now it had missions, schools, and hospitals all over India. Though a Church of England society, it worked with mil denominations. It was a purely Indian mission, having educational and medical sides. It was concerned solely with women, nnd was, in fact, the handmaid of the Church Missionary Society. The mission was greatly in need of funds. There was at present about £600 difference between the expenditure and income. Miss Alary Sornbji, who, in most eloquent English, graphically -.kctchcd the Iifo of women in India, remarked thnt wherever she went in England she. encountered a hazy indifference to the great Empire of India. The term ignorance could not be applied to people qf tho intellect of the English. Surely it was the slutv of English people, living in a tiny liltlo island, yet holding swnv over n fifth of the whole population of the globe, to know more of the land and of tno 39,000.000 people in their charge. No one in England realised what caste meant. Castes wore water-tight compartments. Any inter-marriage, any intercourse was quite imuossihle. A very great responsibility had been entrusted to Britain, Why were the English in India? Was it to furnish good government nnd security? No. If Britain had given the peoplo of Inilin law and ardor, justice nnd peace, nnd laid withhold from them tho Gospel of Christ, it would have left India hungry, thirsty, ami totally unsatisfied. The Government was always impartial and -strictly just. As it was impossible to teach the Hindoo religion in the Government schools, and equally impossible to teach Alulioniinedism. no religion at all was tuiiglil in I lie Government schools and colleges. The ancient'- religions of India woro tottering to their fall. The voting men who left tho college-, lost faith in their religions nnd were a th ie s t In their views. Was it fair to take from a people what they cherished most nnd give them nothing in its place? Consciously or unconsciously, willingly or unwillingly, England with its secular education, Imd deprived tho people of India of their faith, and had thus deprived them of Hint which would save their souls. Only 1 per cent of Indian women could read and write. Education Whs still considered unnecessary for unmen, The Hindoo proverb which ran, " Educating a woman is like (Pitting a knife i|V the hands of n monkey '* was still believed.

Now I w ant to tell you a story about the snowdrop, which is beginning to come out in our gardens. It was winter time. The a ir was cold, and the keen wind w hittled in cutting blasts, but inside it was as w arm and cosy as possible. The snowdrop was in her hou-c. curled up asleep in the bulb, deep down in the earth, underneath the white snow. The winter passed a w a y ; the rain fell in gentle drops through the snow, trickled down io the bulb, and told her ibout the pleasant world above. The sunbeams pierced tbc earth, ki-sed tbc bulb, ind woke Iter up. "C o m e in ," said the .flower, to the sunbeams. • I can ’t , " answered one of the sunbeams. “ ] tun not strong enough yet to open the door of your house. Then the little ("lower tried to stretch herself and get out, but she had to wait until the sunbeams burst open the bulb, ind then she shot up front under the earth, .» green and white blossom on n slender stem, guarded on all sides by close, thick eaves. Tito air w as cold, and almost forced Iter back, but the sunbeams shone on her and said " W elcome! W elcom e!" ind cheered her with loving caresses ns lie rose higher and higher out of the inrth, till at last the petals opened wide, ind a tlowcr, white as snow, with pale green stripes appeared, hanging her little head in shyness and gladness. * How fresit and delicate you a rc ! " said the sunbeam s; " you arc the very first blossom. Presently the beautiful flowers of summer will come to gladden the world. Soon you will have plenty of friends— violets' and* primroses—but you are the first and best of a ll." The little snowdrop was filled with joy by these kind words. Soon, however, came the angry wind and the storm, trying to break the little snowdrop. " You have come too soon," cried the w ind; “ you shall break o r die." But she stood bravely, althovigh the bitter winds blew round her. " Summer fool!" the angry wind called her, as he tried to break her slender stem. The children found her in the garden peeping above the snow, ind they said, “ How lovely! How charming it is! Tfic first, the only o n e!" A little maiden picked her carefully, kissed her, nnd carried her into a pltfcisant room. She was then placed lovingly in a vase of cool? refreshing water. Then the little maiden wrapped her in a scented paper, ind put her in an envelope, and sent her to a dear friend. The snowdrop then took i long journey in a mail-bag, and had to be stamped and crushed. The friend kissed the flower, nnd put it into a casket nmong some other letters, where it lay for a long • time, until one day the letters were taken out and thrown into the fire; but the flower fell on the floor.” and was left there. The housemaid entered to sweep the floor. She picked up the snowdrop carefully, and placed it between the leaves of a book of great poems. T here it lay happy for ever tmong the beautiful verses.

His sister died when only seven years ofage, and his elder brother was killed in Salonika in 1916, when serving with the 19th Hussars, the regiment in which his grandfather had served. Funeral. Extraordinary testimony to the popularity of the young officer was forthcoming when tho men at Farnborough were invited to volunteer for the funeral. Th e response was unanimous, and 58 were selected to represent the Squadron. Many touching scenes were witnessed at the funeral service, at Shrewsbury, on Monday, when the deceased officer was accorded full Air Force honours. His body was conveyed on n wagon and the march of three miles t o . the cemetery was deeply impressive. In the chapel, where the service' was conducted by the Archdeacon of Lincoln (fathcr-in law of Mrs. Jeudwine), four airmen, with arms reversed, formed a guard of honour round the coffin. A touching incident occurred in the sounding of the “ Last Post,” when the bugler, unable to control his emotion, broke down and had to repeat tho call. Before leaving, Mrs. Jeudwine shook hands with all the Farnborough men, amid harrowing scenes. Tributes. O f the ever-increasing volume of correspondence which has reached Mrs. Jcudwinc the following two extracts arc typical. From a Colonel of tho Group connected with the R.A.F. in Mesopotamia " Your son's death to me is a very awful loss. The longer I knew him the more I realised his splendid qualities. As a soldier, his-example, •determination, and courage were beyond all praise. As a friend, his loyalty, cheerfulness, and thoughtfulness cleared the air in almost every connection and in the difficult times wc had together in Mesopotamia, and I looked forward so much to seeing him again in the near future. All officers and men who knew him will deplore his loss. Duty was your son's watchword, and that he died at his duty, instructing another for the good of the Force which he- loved, is the only poor consolation 1 have at present." From Colonel C. Blount, of Farnborough:— " I want to tell you what I thought of Jenks, and the opinion that I know my officers had of him. I am not saying this because he is gone, and in order to make you prouder of him than I know you already arc, for there is nothing but praise and every word is absolutely true. Without exception he is the best officer 1 have ever had. He was dead straight, absolutely loyal in everything he did, said, and thought. He was so reliable and trustworthy. His energy was so infectious and he was so alive. He was a wonderful combination of manly pluck and determination combined with an extraordinary sympathy. He had a very great love for you and his step-father, but you know that already. His tact was most valuable, and his influence among others was very marked. He commanded love and respect from all who met him, and His loss is a very deep regret to all the army officers here who knew him. He was of the greatest value to me. My only worry was that I might take advantage of his capability and give him too much work to do. He had a most attractive personality. His men loved him. He was a great leader, and he would have gone for in his profession. All my officers admired and respected him. They were always asking his advice on every conceivable subject, and the difficulty was to find him alone at any time out of working hours. He has done a great deal oi good here. His influence will long remain with us. He must have done a lot- of good in his life; it is-very-difficult to understand why he should be taken. He is a very great loss to the Service, and to us ail here at Farnborough, and though we are told no man is indispensable, I feel sure Jenks was the exception. We are all deeply sorry for \ou and your husband. We understand what he meant to you. 1 wish you could talk to mv officers and men, you would feel what they thought of him. Personally I really loved him. 1 can’t say more. I have a son, aged two, 1 should like him to grow up just like Jenks.’ Mrs. Jeudwine is assured of the deepest sympathy of her numerous friends in the Godaiming - district. Although she ha> lived here a comparatively short time. WANBOROUGH. " VERY BAD CASE.” Sir Charles Cook, at Guildford county sessions on Friday, told Sidney Frank White, of Flexford Farm, Wanborough, who was summoned for permitting unnecessary cruelty to pigs that it was a very bad case of neglect, and, a previous conviction having been proved, a fine of £10 was imposed. Mr. T riggs Turner (Guildford) prosecuted for the R.S.P.C.A. Mr. W . White, R.S.P.C.A. inspector at Guildford, visiting the farm, saw three sows and a boar, huddled in a temporary sty. The pigs, which were in a very poor condition, were up to their stomachs in mud and slush. The boar was in a very emaciated condition, was lame, and was quite incapable of fighting for its food. Sir. White asked for the boar to be placed by itself. Two days later there was a vast improvement in the sty. Visiting Sutton Mr. White told defendant of the condition she has exhibited the possession of the of the pigs.

He fed the pigs on mangolds, but defendant told him to feed them, instead, on frosted potatoes. Defendant’s instructions were that he was not to give the three sows and the boar meal. Cross-examined, Smith denied that he was dismissed because of the condition of the pigs. His orders were that the pigs were not to bo separated. Smith admitted that he was entitled to obtain the food the pigs required. Mr. J. A. Cunningham, veterinary surgeon, of Guildford, was of the opinion that the pigs had not been given nourish* ing food. Defendant said that from January 1st to the 19th he did not go to the farm because he was unwell. He saw Smith, and told him that he was astonished at the condition of things. The sows had not had clean straw for about two or three days. He dismissed Smith on the spot. He instructed Smith to boil the good potatoes, after the frosted ones had been taken out, and give them, with meal, to all the pigs. Smith had a free hand to get whatever food was required for the animals. k V WORPLESDON.
