Save Coal rather than Gas in the National interest is the advice givenby the Coal Controller to inquiifers in all parts of the country. Every pound of Coaland every foot of Gas possible should be saved, but, when filling up the requisitionform, a householder should bear in mind that the National interests will best be served

• . ^ by saving Coal before Gas. Where a householder has used a Gas Fire he shouldcontinue to do so in preference to a Coal F ire ; but the Fire should not be kept alight

J| a minute longer than is absolutely necessary.

M r. W illiam M acBean, th e new musical director, had a,: warm reception a t his opening conoert in the W in te r G arden on M onday evening. T he spacious hall contained an unusually large assemblage, and qu ite a n enthusiastic greeting was extended to M r. M acBean when he took up his position a t the conductor’s desk. T his hearty introductory dem onstration was, later, reflected in th e effusive fervour of th e expreasionSj of appreciation of a particularly well-rendered programme, M r. MacBean securing most happy and musicianly in terpreta tions of the whole of th e well-chosen numbers. A lert and incisive of m ethod, M r. M acBean m aintains a firm and strongly-suggestive beat, using both handp w ith facility and significant variety of movement. He appears, also, to have the instrum ental body well under control and to be able to get ju st the tem po and the niceness of expression which he seeks. Also he is m anifestly very keen and earnest in his work generally, and under his discrim inating direction there is little doubt th e concerts will m aintain their well-fherited popularity . Although by no means a pretentious pro­gramme, i t was not w anting in musical in terest and the o rchestra1 d id full justice to such favourite num bers as Puccini’s “ L a B oherae” fantasie, E riedem ann’s “ Sla­vonic R hapsody,” W eber’s “ Inv ita tion to the W altz,” and M iddleton’s Scottish selection, “ The T histle .”

A large and eagerly-expectant assembly occupied tbe Pavilion on W ednesday afternoon) when M ajor-General S ir F . M aurice, K .O .M .G ., O.B., formerly D irector of M ilitary Operations on th e Im perial G eneral Staff and a t present a publicist of repute, gave his promised lecture on “ T he T urn of th e T id e : why complete victory is certain .”

T h e lecturer, who spoke for an hour and a quarter, using two oi three m aps only for illustration , first sum ­m arised and explained the great enemy advance of ■Maroh-Juiy, w ith its objectives and strategical signifi­cance. H e described in somq.detail and w ith admirable dearness th e exact, geographical and m ilitary situation, and its alarmingly menacing aspect on Ju ly 14th, and then proceeded w ith an in te resting and stim ulating account of how M arshal Foch m et and dealt w ith the position and by m asterly generalship rolled back th e forces of th e enemy and wrought th e amazing transfor­m ation since produced. . —

i regard to the future, S ir F . M aurice expressed

lovers, has a m anly, warm -hearted representative in M r. H enry Lonsdale, the im personation being through­out a great histrionic success and firmly ingratiating th e g ifted actor in th e affection of th e audience. Miss L ilian C hristine [acts very charm ingly as “ L ady M ary,” and among other delineations calling for particular com m endation-are “ T he V ica r” of Mr. Jo h n B urton (w h l supplies a really first-rate character s tu d y ); “ Second-Lieutetiant Cornelius K eys,” played with naturalness and hum our by M r. Sydney B enson ; “ K itty M iddleton ” (the vicar’s daughter), pleasingly portrayed by M iss E n id E rie ; and “ Colonel Sharrow,” of the in te llig en ce , D epartm ent, acted w ith befitting sp irit and brusquehess by M r. E rnest Leicester., The somewhat thankless roles of th e spies, “ Constance M ore l” and “ P au l Lam ond,” are filled w ith great ability by M iss H ilda A ntony and M r. Lewis G ilbert respectively. Good audiences have greatly enjoyed the play during the week.

The engagem ent concludes to-day w ith performances a t 2.30 aud 7.30.

“ D E A R B R U T U S .”The la test B arrie comedy, which recently concluded

a highly successful and lengthy run in London, is to be played for the first tim e in Eastbourne on M onday and two succeeding days of nex t week. There will be a matinee on W ednesday.

Dear Brutus is a fascinating story, drawn with the light, happy touch so characteristic of Sir J . M. B arrie’s works. T he them e deals w ith the question whether, if one could live one’s life over again, in the ligh t of know­ledge already gained, would one order i t differently.

“ P E G O’ M Y H E A R T .”T his perennial favourite is due here on the last three

days of next week, the engagement extending to three evening perform ances and a matinee on the Saturday. To all who appreciate a play packed full of hum our and fragran t romance, Peg o’ my Heart m ust inevitably appeal w ith great force. T he play is presented by Messrs Macdonald and Y oung’s company. Miss N ancy M ortim er will be seen as “ Peg .”

- A visit to th e C entral Cinema continues to be well repaid, th e tastefully selected films screened generally proving full of acceptance. One of the m ost popular of the week[s presentm ents, namely, “ .The Vengeance of Pau la,” ia showing to-day. A thrilling drama, this P a th e production features the talented Mrs. .Vernon Castle.

A n a ttractive programme for M onday next is to include “ M ’liss.” In th is comedy-drama M ary Pick- ford plays one of her ever-popular “ tom boy ” roles and .her portrayal is a delightful one. M ’liss, to the citizens rqf R ed Gulch, stands for “ L im b of Satan ,” which no t inaptly describes its'owner. W ith the arrival of th e handsome schoolmaster, however, the “ lim b ” mends her wild ways. Through a mistake the former is sentenced to penal servitude. M ’liss, aware of his innocence, helps him to escape. Then, w ith the capture of tbe real m urderer, Gracy persuades M ’liss to become his “ pupil ” for- life.

V A U D E V IL L E .T h a t excellent vaudeville combination—Moonshine—

which travels under the direction of M r. Jackson P o tte r, .is again located in tb e Pavilion. T heir p ro­gramm e is a palatable adm ixture of-old and new num ­bers, all presented in ' effective and pleasing style. E ach member of the company is an adep t in his o r her own particular style of diversion. One scarcely hears enough of the leader, M r. Jackson Po tter, who on Thursday, a t any rate, did no t appear till late in the evening. Then he gave “ E leanore” and had torespond to two em phatic dem ands for more. M iss Gladys R ennard delighted th e audience w ith Landon Ronald’s “ Down in th e forest.”

W ith her customary vivacity and charm Miss Phyllis Rose contributed songs a t th e piano. She has added to her repertory m any diverting topical numbers, the poin ts of which are fully appreciated by her hearers. M iss Phyllis L iste r also m ade a useful contribution to th e harm ony of the evening. The droll stories and comical songs of M r. F red C urtis were a very welcome addition to the show, while both in humorous solos and in duets w ith Miss Gwen JAlban, M r. E ric Ross greatly distinguished himself. M iss . A lban’s gifts as a p ianist are alm ost too well known to require recommendation. H e r solos are ever an acceptable feature and to her work as accompanist m uch of the success which, a ttends the production is due. T he company are associated in a series of delightful ensembles, no t the least p iquant being th a t extracted from M y Lady Frayle—“ W h at a naughty old gentlem an papa m ust have been.” The program m e concludes w ith a clever farcical sketch, en titled “ M isunderstood,” in which the party sustained their several p a rts with distinction.

m aintains its hold upon the appreciative in terest of theatre-goers and is, perhaps, the cleverest and most entertain ing of all th is experienced .dram atist’s produc­tions. A lthough ite attractiveness centres in the unravelling of a daring spy plo t and the running to earth of a particularly dangerous and resourceful couple of enemy schemers, th is conspicuous feature is only part of a general design to dem onstrate the patrio tic sp irit anim ating B rita in’s action and purpose in th e war. Throughout the dram a there runs a fine, healthy flow of English feeling and sentim ent, while allied to its main p lo t are a couple of p re tty love stories, in the chief of which th e hero has an unpopular rival. As usual with M r, How ard ’6 productions, the piece is elaborately staged, each scene being realistically presented, notably th a t in the th ird act, when—following the pricking of' th e spy bubble—we get an ingenious mechanical device showing th e destruction of a Germ an subm arine by B ritish destroyers. The war shrine unveiling also has a strik ing setting, the ceremony gaining quite an impressive seriousness from the presence of vicar and ohoir and the earnest address of the clergyman and sweet singing of youthful choristers.

Responsible for the interpretation of the piece is distinctly talen ted and hard-working company, and the perform ance proceeds w ith all desirable smoothness and spirit. A s “ C aptain Terance Fielding, R .H .A .,” the m ethod 7>f whose plan for unm asking the spies is mis understood by his sw eetheart, “ Lady M ary H eather,’ and causes a tem porary estrangem ent between the

box office“ M R . M A Y F A IR .”

The length of the queue which besieges the before each house is indicative of th e splendid fare enjoyed a t th e H ippodrom e th is week. W ithout hesi tation one may proclaim Mr. M ayfair to be the w ittiest, p re ttiest, liveliest musical comedy which has visited th is popular house for some time. T h a t i t pleases the Audience is very evident from the enthu siastic p laudits which punctuate every performance.

T he scenes are set in th e luxurious G rand H otel a t Valparaiso, and here the Hon. Jo h n Qillon masquerades as M r. M ayfair. H ere he meets the mischievous Lady B arbara and th e Hon. Em m a W interby, whose name alm ost im plies the type of character she represents. There are certain other?) who join in the adventures of the volatile M r. M ayfair, and the lively story wends a tortuous way to a highly satisfactory conclusion. , N eed­less to, say, i t forms an adm irable if slender line on which to jhang m any witticisms, comic and sentim ental songs,”delightful dances and effective tableaux. Scenic effect has been much sought after, and the dreBses of th e feminine m embers of the cast have been chosen solely with an eye to ; presenting an artistic picture. T he m ounting of the story leaves little to be desired, the b righ t music is splendidly rendered by the H ippo­drome orchestra, while the antics and jokes of the comedians m eet with the fullest appreciation!rorn the audiences.

Forem ost in the east is M r. H erbert Darnley, the author, coin poser, producer and inim itable comedian. H e extracts every particle of hum our from the doubled roles, and his hearers are kep t in a constant s ta te of m irth . H e is th e central figure in th e whole of the th ree scenes, and his presence on the stage ensures ample entertainm ent. H e receives splendid support from winsome Miss Doreen Andre, a gifted vocalist as well as a clever actress. T his young lady wins golden opinions for the way in which she sustains the character of “ L ady B arbara.” H e r very oharming selection Of frocks is inspected w ith in terest by the ladies who are riresent.‘ The “ Hon. Em m a W in te rb y ” is in the

ands of M iss Fanny W allace, who gives an em inently satisfactory sketch of th is amusing lady. O thers who certainly deserve p ra ise-an d who help to make the production a huge success are M r. F red Hedingley (as “ M r. Borser ”) aud M r. J . R . M arson (as “ Tim son,” the comic butler).

Those who have not as yet seen Mr. M ayfair should certainly m ake arrangem ents to do so a t one or o ther of th e perform ances to-night. _

“ F L A S H L IG H T S .”T he ■“ bill ” for nex t week appears very promising-

M r. P . T. Selbit is announced to present a musical novelty in tfyeo “ beams,” en titled Flashlights, for the w riting and production of which he is responsible. The

E A S T E R N C IN E M A . “ S IX -S H O O T E R A N D Y “ W O L V ES OF T H E

R A IL .”. Strongly appealing to the taste of patrons, who liavo assembled in large numbers, th is week’s selections of film subjects have been warmly received. “ Slum ber­ing F ires,” which may be seen for the last tim es to ­day, is a th rilling drama, in which the role of the cowboy hero is played by H arry Carey.

“ Six-Shooter A ndy,” a powerful Fox production, starring Torn Mix, should prove a popular draw during the early half of nex t week. The exciting events depicted take place a t a western town a t the tim e of the gold rush. W hen A ndy's father is killed, the boy dem ands th a t the m urderer be punished. The order no t being complied with, Andy does the “ punish ing” himself, thus incurring the hatred of tbe rascally sheriff., L ater scenes show the abduction of the “ six-shooter’s ” sw eetheart and the eventual killing of thp sheriff.

“ W olves of the R ail,” which comes to this cinema on Thursday, is a gripping dram a fea tu rin g W. S. H art, which should appeal to all ages. I t is a “ crook” p ay, all about robberies and outlaws, and includes two teats of horsem anship th a t everybody ought to see. One of them is the best th ing yet done by “ Bill.” H is jum p from a galloping horse to a railway engine running at full speed is a trium ph. T he film is a continuous roll of thrills, w ith daring rides aud hand - to - band encounters, and should be greatly enjoyed by spec­tators. '■

th e Old Town Cinema during the week, and two splendid program m es have a ttracted large att»- .dances. W ith characteristic enterprise the m anagem ent have secured an exceptionally powerful serial fur pa tro n s ' delectation. “ The M ysteries of M yra,” the opening episode of which will be screened to-day, trea ts in mystio fashion of th e occult, and the rites as practised by theB labk Order of the Devil W orshippers. A strong love story runs through this serial, and its followers will find i t of sensational interest.

A delightful tale is portrayed in “ T he M idshipm ite,” which heads a pleasing bill for Monday next. T he plot is exquisitely staged and clever in action, and centres round the abduction of a little m otherless cl.ild, whose role is charm ingly played by Miss Diomira.

A trem endous a ttraction is announced for the second half of the week, when the m anagem ent will present “ Tem poral Pow er,” the successful screen version of M arie Corelli’s great novel. The book is, as is well known, a study of the life of a king. I t shows how a m onarch—endowed with tbe moral and physical courage essential to a kingship—behaved under exceptional cir­cumstances. Every advantage has been taken of the exciting situations included in the book, and patrons will doubtless acoord the film a warm reception.

E L Y S IU M C IN E M A .“ T H E P R IC E O F A GOOD T IM E ”—

“ B O N D A G E .”E nterta inm en t a t th is picture house during the week

has been very agreeably contributed to by “ " ~

Before his H onour Ju d g e M ackarness, in Eastbourne County Court oni Tuesday, Charles H . Taylor, of “ T he Angles ” boarding-house; Royal-parade, sought to recover from th e Beach L aundry Company, Ltd., £90, the value of goods detained and damages.

M r. Horace Feu top (on the instruction of Mr. H erb ert J . C. Sum pter) represented the plaintiffs, and M r. H arold Brandon (instructed by Mr. F . Lawson Lewis) appeared for the defpndants.

In his opening M r. Fenton indicated th a t the claim arose ou t of the disastrous fife in which buildings of th e Beach Laundry and goods therein were destroyed.

Charles H enry Taylor, p roprieto r of The Angles boarding house, row serving in the R .A .F ., said the business was beir g managed by his wife. For many years tb e linen belonging to T he Angles had been laundered by the Beach L aundry Company. T hat sent imm ediately before the fire was in a good condition and had been bought since ho purchased The Angles three years ago. A ll worn linen was dealt with a t home. He: subm itted a sample of the linen sen6 to the laundry, and said i t had gene up in price since the war.

By M r. B rand m : H e was claiming for the price of the,goods a t tbe cost of replacing them. H e had not the bills for the articles burnt, nor had he the valuation a t which he took over the business..

M rs. Sarah L. Taylor, wife of the plaintiff, stated th a t she m anaged the business for her husband. All the linen had bee)i replaced since 1913. The manageressof the defendant company called, on witness on the day after the fire—May 18th—and asked if witness had beard of the loss. She said ..she know it Would Ire a great inconvenielnce to them, and "told witness to replace the* goods. -The damage was tovered by insurance and the firm would m eet the"' bills. Witness told her she was relying on- the re tu rn of the ^oods for the week-end, a id would have to do th a t. The lost goods were replaced by Messrs. Bobby & Co. and Messrs. M iller & F rank lin a t a cost of £02 odd aud £7. Of the 74 sheets claimed for, eight or ten were linen. The linep sheets were in good condition, having been in ' use only eighteen months. The life of a sheet in a boarding-house ■ vould be from 12 to 15 years. The cotton sheets were also ifi good condition, and had been in use fo r . two years. T he sheets lost would • last as long again as those ju st purchased. 8he had had to, pay more for thelm th an she did for the original sheets.!

She denied in, eross-examiination th a t £45 was a fair value for th e goods lost. T he laundry was never sent in a worn condition. T h a t week she knew it was all in good condition, as she was particular th a t owing to the difficulty of getting laundry work back a t holiday time all th e ligh ter goods should be. washed a t home.

M rs. H e tty .Walker said she was plaintiff’s linen maid a t th e tim e of th e fire a t the laundry. She was certain the goods sen t to the laundry on -May 13th were in perfect condition.

Miss E lizabeth J . Senftleben said she was one of the maids in the house'. H e r laundry, valued a t 23s., was included in the parcel sent from T he Angles.

M r. Roger B ates said in May last he was staying a t The Angles, ana lost goods in the fire valued a t £3. 2a

F or the defendants, M r. W illiam A. Perkins, secre­ta ry and m anaging director of the Beach Laundry Company, L td ./s a id he had no knowledge of the origin of the fire on M ay 14th. Everyth ing, was in order when the workjs were locked up. The value of the goods belonging to the plaintiff lost in the fire he estim ated a t £87, b u t as the directors had instructed him to be generous to ,custom ers he had paid £45 in to Court. T he manageress had no power to se ttle claims

to tell customers to replace gords a t the firm’s expense. H er duties Were entirely inside the laundry.

By M r. F en to n ; H e did not see the goods before th e fire. H is valuation was based on w hat he was told. T he manageress w ash isdaughter, and she had occupied th a t position about five years.

M r. B randon a t th is stage subm itted th a t as the defendants werje not negligent there was no liability on them to replace the goods.

A fter hearing argum ents by Mr. Fenton, his Honour said he would g iveh is judgm ent a t the next Court.

The L u stof the A g es” and “ Southern P ride .” Each" of strong attractiveness, these acceptable photo-plays have won the warm approbation of good houses. “ Southe P ride ,” which heads to-day’s bill, features Gail K ai who is the central figure in a th rilling story.

“ T he Price of a Good T im e ” is the title of a powerful “ Ideal ” production, which is to be exhibited on M onday next. E vents chiefly concern a poor and depressed girl, who accepts the invitation of wealthy Preston W infield to “ have a good tim e.” F o r five n ights life is one glorious round of pleasure, bu t on the sixth her suspicious brother tracks her down. In a prolonged struggle he is hurled to th e ground by her lover. L ife for L innie now becomes unbearable under th e circumstances, and the climax of the tragedy is reached when she throw s herself under P reston’s car. Tbe leading role in th is p iJfure play is well played by M ildred Harris.

“ Bondage,” a Blue B ird dram a, sta rrin g Dorothy Phillips, is to be screened on Thursday. A strong them e trea ts of a girl who obtains a livelihood as a contributor to the sensational press. Degraded by her' surroundings, she eventually lives to find happiness w ith her true-hearted husband.

P .S . N o rth gave evidence of arresting prisoner in Susans-road on the previous day. Prisoner stated that he was not an absentee ; he was drawing a pension. H e had been under Dr. Howie, his panel doctor, and the m ilitary au thorities had a certificate to th a t effect. , H e had been referred to M r. Dennis, who had to do w ith pensions.

Questions by A lderm an Duke and the C lerk elicited .from the prisoner th e fact th a t he came from Sutton in Ju n e to work for M r. Rawlings, an Eastbourne con­tractor. H e was placed on- the arm y reserve. T he work was too hard, and he exchanged to the E astboum a A viation Company, remaining there till A ugust 17th. Since then he had been “ m ooching” abqut.

1 E A S T B O U R N E P A R IS H (ST. M A R Y ’S).j . : A Dangerous W eakness.

T h e V icar (Canon Streatfeild) calls a tten tion forthcom ing diocesan m eeting a t Hove, a t whibb th e evangelistio work o f the Church m il be spoken ujpon by •the B ishop of Lichfield. Time, he says, will be given fo r discussion b u t j“ . m ost of us will wish probably not to ta lk ’m uch, bu t to p ray much and th in k mnoh before w e do m uch talk ing on th is g reat subject.” T he V icar a d d s :—

“ I s i t n o t ra th e r a dangerous weakness of our race to believe th a t [we'arrive a t th e r ig h t conclusions by m uch talk ing ? W e shall be surprised i f we do nipt come aw ay from th e m eeting on October 31st more determ ined to m ake more tim e for p rayer and solemn thought abou t th e th ings which really m atte r.”

M b. K enyon in F rance.“ T he Rev. J . H . S. K enyon w rites very happily

from a Church A rm y H u t in France. H e finds the w ork full of opportunities as well a s of interest. A s p a r t of his stipend is being pfrid from our own A ssistant "Clergy F u n d (£100 pe r annum) w e are able to feel as a p arish th a t we are doing som ething to help the excellent w ork of th e C hurch A rm y in Franco.”

'1 P arish N urse.“ T he N ursing Com m ittee of St. M ary’s and St.

M ichael’s have appointed N urse Beatrice C lark as parish nurse, who brings an excellent record from St. Jo h n ’s H ouse in London. She will commence her duties, id is hoped, on October 15th. W hen she has secured suitable rooms, he r address will b e posted u p in th e church pore i.” ' '

H O L Y T R IN IT Y .W ar Memorial.

“ W e have been considering a t our-Church Council la te ly w hat form our war mem orial shall take, and a t onr last meeting plans draw n up by M r. F anning were laid before us fdr discussion. W hatever else we m ay do, we th in k th a t noth ing could be more suitable than a fa irly large m em orial in carved stone on th a t b lank

i space m .th o n o ith wall between th e north door and the , f irs t w indow of th e nave. iThe idea is th a t there should

be th ree sp ices in th e memorial, th e centre one being occupied w ith a few facts of th e war, th e greatest the world has ever seen, and th e two side panels being given up to those who have laid down th e ir lives in the war and who belonged in any way to onr parish and congregation. T his m em orial should be of perm anent in te rest, and wo feel sure th e relatives of those who have fallen will (welcome it.

“ In addition to this, various suggestions have been m ade for a memorial window in the. church, s ta tu e in the churchyard. I f any of our frier ds have ideas or suggestions they could pass on t o vus about th e memoria!, ■ the V icar would be very glad th em .” , " . 1

ST. S A V IO U R ’S.L iberation op the H oly L and.

On Sunday, Septem ber 29th, a solemn T e D iu m was sung after evensong as an act of thanksgiving fo r the victories in Palestine and th e liberation of th e H oly

to have

L and from th e Turks. T he V icar was unfortunately absent, as he had a long-standing engagem ent to preach a t the six tieth anniversary of th e dedication of Holy T rin ity , Hastings.,

t, M r . J . R . D ear.M r. D ear, organist and choirm aster, sends some

account of his experience as a worker on the land in K ent. ^ In the course of his le tte r he sa y s:—

“ I am settled in a beautiful old-world village in one of the m ost fertile p a rts of. K ent, several miles from a railway, where growing food for the people is th e only industry. I a m working on a large farm, where corn, fru it and hops flourish.

“ I m ust confess th a t, a fte r -the sedentary life I have led, I find it very hard work, and the hours, from 7 in th e m orning till 5.30 in the evening, very long. H ow ­ever, I am certainly doing som ething for my country, for there is much work to be done, and labour is very short.. W omen are doing wonders on th e land, and m ost of th e fru it work is done by them .

“ A record harvest has been gathered, and i t has been secured in record time.

“ I miss St. Saviour’s and m y music terribly, though we are fortuuate in the church here. I t is a glorious old building, beautifully kept, well a ttended and reverently cared for, and i t is in itself an inspiration. T here is qu ite a nice organ, bu ilt in 1913, and an enthusiastic choir. I was asked to play on W ar Sunday, and qu ite enjoyef§doing so.”

R oll,of H onour.W e much -regret to have to add the nam e of E rie

K enton, R .E ., to the list of th e fallen. H e was one of our old choristers, a nice qu iet boy, who rem ained (a faithful member of th e Boys’ Bible Glass. M ay he rest in peace.”

ST. P E T E R ’S.H arvest T hanksgiving.

T he harvest thanksgiving,” w rites the V icar (Canon C arr Sm ith) “ is a sign th a t th e sum m er is over and th a t we m ust p repare ourselves for th e pariah work of th e w inter. T here is a real connection betw een the two. I f ever a people had cause to be thankfu l for the blessings of ,a good harvest we have, and especially th is year. Our enemies havg done their worst w ith their subm arines to p reven t supplies of food coming to us from’ abroad, bu t the gallan try and self-sacrifice [of our sailors have largely defeated th is a ttem pt. T he en te r­prise and labour of orir agriculturists a t home have made these islands m ore nearly self-supporting than they have been for m any years, and-God has greatly blessed these efforts w ith an abundant harvest. These a re mercies for which we m ust be m ost tru ly thankful. I t is for us: now ‘ toshow forth our thankfulness, no t only w ith our lips bu t by our lives,’1 and so far as th e parish is con­cerned i t m ay well take the form of increased interest) and earnestness in th e work of th e church.

“ I t is impossible a t a tim e like th is to do m uch in th e way of inaugurating new work, b u t we can p u t new life in to all th a t exists.”

T he Mayor R esigns as Sidesman..“ I-had^, greatly hoped,” observes the V icar, “ th a t

Dr. H ard ing would have been one of "the first elected to th e proposed Church Council, but, to my great regret, shared, I believe, by m ost St. P e ter’s people, he has resigned his post as sidesman, a fte r holding it, I understand, for som ething like tw pnty years, during which, he has done much for th e church where he has regularly . worshipped. Our dis­appointm ent for bis re tirem ent ddes not, however, lessen our g ra titu d e for all lie has done.”

• Some W ants.T he V icar w rites fu r th e r : “ I m ay m ention some of

our m ost urgent needs. W e w ant additional men’s voices in th e choir, depleted by the nation’s needs. M ore m em bers a re wanted for th e ladies’ choir. I ts work is of the greatest im portance to St. P e te r’s, and i t is plainly to be seen how greatly its services a re appre­ciated. Every regular communicant should join one or o ther of th e w ards of St. P e ter’s Com municants’ Guild. E very m an worshipping a t th e church • should be a m em ber of St. P e te r’s O .E.M .S. W e w ant two or. th ree young men to throw them selves in to th e work of th e Y ouths’ Club. T he O .E.T .S . needs th e membership of all who care for th e work of 'tem perance reform. Every single person who believes in th e love of God ought to take a practical in terestrin missionary work.”

■ A bsence and Almsgiving.“ T he storm y w eather during Septem ber has g reatly ;

affected congregations and collections- W orshippers who are k ep t away from Church by the w eather doubt­less say th e ir prayers a t home, b u t few seem to make up for th e ir absence from church on one Sunday by- increasing their alm s on the next.” ■

' - . N otes.“ W e are grieved th a t M iss H arley is suffering so

m uch w ith her eyes th a t she hah been perem ptorily bidden to give up all work for th e present. W e owl: more to her than wo can say, and. not least for having secured Mrs. Parlies, Mrs. Tabor and Mrs. Slooombe to carry on th e chief p a r t of her work. A w ish was expressed th a t M iss H arley should be on the Church Council, bu t this, alas, she cannot now do. '

“ Mrs. H a ttie has given a lovely old chalice veil to add to our treasures a t St. P e te r’s. I t is qu ite exquisite, and the g ift has enabled iis to hand one of our veils to th e Rev. H , E . Sexton, A ..I.F., who is building a cbapel on th e W estern F ro n t, and who is m ost thankful for the g ift.”

A L L S A IN T S ’.Church F lags. - j

“ Two fine flags have now. been given for the Ohuroh tower and will [be dedicated on October 6th. E xam ina­tion of th e p resent flagstaff has proved th a t i t is no t in a good [enough: sta te to bear the stra in of a large flag in al strong wind. A mem ber of th e congregation has k indly consented to provide a new flagstaff, which will be placed as soon as. possible. W e a re very grateful for th is k ind g ift.”

Y e t another entirely successful production lies to the cred it of th e Blue Boys of Summerdqwn Camp. A characteristically b righ t and breezy revue is being pre­sented by them in th e P ier T heatre throughout this week. To Oapt. E . G reen Foley, th e popular general m anager of th e K nuts, is due th e ingenious and novel idea worked out in Excuses. H e has certainly h it on a happy way of using the widely diverse ta len t which, has its home for th e m om ent in the Camp. The cast readily tak e advantage of th e scope provided,: and working assiduously and harmoniously, the result of th e ir efforts is en tirely pleasing to their audiences.

T he curta in rises on a scene of disorder behind the Stage pf a music hall. The audience are supposed to be seated, b u t th e a rtis ts have not, p u t in ah appearanoe, ne ither are th e scenes set.; T he producer (in th e person of Capt. G reen Foley) becomes d istracted, the principals appear too la te to commence th e ordinary show, bu t a brainy idea strikes th e worried one, and he sends the p a rty before the curtain “to m ake th e ir own Excuses to the audience. H ence th e title , and one m ay-see the unlim ited variety of stories th a t could be placed in the m ouths of th e various characters.

“ I have been tak ing two Sundays off- as a holiday.I never or seldom feel myself th a t I need a holiday, and I always seriously question w hether i t is w orth all the

T he volume is, as usual, copiously interleaved w ith specially draw n maps.

E arly Closing.—T he Board of M anagem ent of the E arly Closing Association held an emergency m eeting on M onday to consider the Home Secretary 's decision to m ake the hour fo r th e compulsory closing of shops eight instead of seven o'clock. A resolution was unanim ously passed expressing reg re t th a t the Home Secretary had ignored the wish of the g reat m ajority of shopkeepers.

aftei},the fashion of th e usual music hail burlesque of th e medical exam ination. Though thp hum our of the scene was' fully appreciated on th e opening night, i t was obvious th a t some speeding-up was desirable, and this was accomplished later in th e week.

On the R iver. ’ 1: The th ird scene depicted th e principal girl’s excuse,

and in th is only two actors participated . T he fa ir lady had been up the river w ith th e baritone, and the audience are privileged to see them in a sweet, secluded spot in th e upper reaches of F a th e r Thames. The stag in g of th is “ excuse” calls for special commenda­tion. T he obviously happy pair, a re in a punt, the. lady reclining against luxurious cushions while her cavalier sings. They land and, seating them selves on the bank, join in th a t p re tty melody, “ The- keys of your heart.” P riva te H enry H arper’s personation of fem inine pharma is splendid. In demeanour and voice he fits the role of principal girl: adm irably. A ttired in a fetching river d ress of white, “ sh e ” wears a shady h a t wreathed w ith roses and tied with ribbons. L ieut. L . H ubbard fulfils th e p a r t of th e baritone excellently.

T he ligh t comedian’s p lea occupies the fourth scene. H e had been down on th e farm- doing war work, arid the audience are whisked away to a real country village and introduced to “ F arm er Gibbs ” (Sergt. Hoyland), his beautiful daughter “ Molly ” (P rivate H arper) and her su itor ‘‘ Sam my,” the village idiot (A.M . Edgar Cooke). T he villagers give a M orris dance (in celebra­tion of the tw enty-first b irthday of the farm er’s son, who is in France. O ther excitem ents aw ait them in the a rrival of the war work volunteer “ Mr. H artin M arvev ” (P rivate Ja c k H aym an) and th e m em bers of B u m p ’E m and B o re ’E m ’s Circus. The' distinguished ligh t comedian loses no tim e in laying siege to the heart of th e village belle. “ Stop m aking those eyes a t me,” in which they both participate, is a m ost effective num ber. T he G reat Scott Trio, who are sta rs of the circus, give a fine -entertainm ent to Farm er. Gibbs’ workpeople in re tu rn for permission to p itch on one of h is fields. Capt. Scott, C .S .M .I. Bokenham and P riv a te Lord go through a series of aerobatic evolu­tions w ith facility. F inally “ Cyrus P. Flickers,” the cinem a man, begs to be allowed to film th e village a t work. H e commences to do so, engaging Molly as his leading lady, and introducing C harlie Chaplin, a cowboy and R ed Ind ians in to his film, “ C y ru s” is im person­a ted by Lance-Oorpl. L auri How ard. Again P riva te H arp er niakes ad e lig h tfu lp ic tu rea s“ M olly,’’arid a sm art four-cornered Parisian- chapeau adds a strik ing .finish­ing touch to “ .her ” sim ple gown. T he presentation of th e village would be incom plete w ithout m ention of its four-legged a ttractions, M illie, the cow (Broricho) and F itzgerald , th e goat (a fam iliar figure a t m ost Gamp functions). The scenery is k indly len t by M r. F rancis Bull.

At the Music H all.T o M r. F red K am o th e Camp are_ indebted for per­

mission to reproduce th e first scene in the second act. T he old actor's excuse is th a t he has been! w ith his nephew to a music hall. * A n adaptation of a scene from The Mumming Birds is utilised. In th is A .M . E dgar Cookri particularly distinguishes himself as the inebriated swell. T here is much boisterous hum our throughout th is scerie, which m eets w ith the whole-hearted approval of th e audiences. Lance-Corpl. L auri How ard provides a deal of fun as the boy, whose m anners are, to say the least, extraordinary, and who is altogether beyond the control [of his uncle (Sergt. HoylaUd), A m ongst the various turns, \Whose reception is ra ther! hot, is ' the soprano. P riv a te H arp er rises to the occasion in an exquisite evening frock of m#uve crepe - de - cherie, sashed 'w ith turquoise blue and enriched w ith passe­menterie. E ven such a ravishing vision makes no dif­ference' in th e num ber of missiles whioh grqpt the “ tu rn ,” T he character actor is personated by Oapt. G reen Foley, and on his appearance.- on M onday a bouquet of w hite heather, w ith lucky symbols appended by w hite ribbons, was handed up. T he whole of the east en ter in to th e sp irit of th is burlesque,, and it goes a t a m erry pace throughout,—the chief factor in its successful presentation.

Considerable hum our is extracted from the Scotch comedian’s ejxcuse—th a t he has been 1 on special duty. H e is seen ' on beat in a busy riverside p a rt of the metropolis: H is wordy passages with, the policeman (Lanoe-Ourpl. L auri How ard) keep his heaters in a constant sta te of h ilarity . T he musical numbei-s in th is scena are “ Tobermory ” by th e Scotch comedian (Private Donald M cKay) and “ T he G rey N orth Sea,” stirringly rendered by L ieut. L . H ubbard. The finale is provided by th e eccentric dance, “ T he Policeman’s H oliday,” given w ith comio effect by “ L a u r i” and P riv a te M cKay. On M onday th e form er received a “ floral tr ib u te ” and th e la tte r a bo ttle of h is native.

liquor. A gain th e camp are grateful to M r. F ran e fe Bull for th e loan of scenery.

On the P romenade.I t was Unfortunate th a t On the ‘/firs t n ight,” owing1

to th e 1 L ighting (Restrictions) Order, th e last tw o scenes bad to be subjected to.drastie excisions. H ow ­ever, in these days we are under! the stern ru le o f “ Dora,” a lady who knows nothing of excuses. B y judicious pruning in the eailier stages the best p a rts of these scenes were replaced a t o ther performances.

The sixth excuse from the stage carpenter w as entirely of a bibulous character; H e had been “ a t th a club,” his euphonious designation fpr the bar of th e Three Swallows. The beat of the policeman (“ L a u r i” again) takes him to tho exterior of this establishm ent, and the in vitation of the jolly landlord (Sergt. H oyland) causes him to break in to soug. The fam iliar phrase^ “ Come and have ope,” is the burden of the refrain , and the num ber was w ritten a n d ' composed for t h a revue by Bandsm an W alter M artin. H aving finished his d itty , th e policeman goes1 his way—and ju st in th o nick of time. “ N ine o’clock’’ is called in th e T h re a Swallows, and ' the stage carpenter (A.M. E d g a r Cooke) is ejected in so inebriated a condition th a t th a “ copper” would have had to hale him before th a m agistrate on a charge of being well-loaded. As i t is, a fte r unsuccessful endeavours to placate the lam p-post, he is hauled into, “ The N est ” by his indignant spouse.

T he final excuse—that, of the bandm aster (naturally im personated w ith ease by Trum pet-M ajor W . J . MoConnel)—gives opportunity for a b rillian t finish. The scene depicts the bandstand, ori the prom enade. T he walks in th e vicinity te e thronged w ith gaily- dressed maideris and their escorts. A m ongst those who passed across th e line of visiim M onday w ere Col. J . 8. Bostock and Mr. H arry Diplock, both being warmly greeted by th e audience. A t the close of th e band s selectiq” ’cne approach of the Blue Boys, led b y the Pipers,' is watched w ith interest. T he order to .

rail out ” is given by Cagfc M cPherson, who imme­diately jo ins a fa ir lady friend and disappears in search of “ m other.” T he lady is none o ther th an P riv a te H arper, charm ingly dressed in shell p ink charm ensa w ith a tunic of knife-pleated niiion and " narrow heiir and stream ers of saxe-blue ribbon. Sim ilar ribbon, adorns th e wide-brimmed hat, which effeotively com*' pletes a p re tty toilette. A fter P riva te Ja c k H aym an has sung th e praises of the “ JazZ Band ” the assembly strolls away. To the deserted prom enade comes a H ighlander. H is fourteen days’ leave has expired, and before re tu rn ing to France he tells (with subdued ^musical accompaniment) of his “ Perfect day.” This,<he says, is his first day-of leave. And w ith a wonderful m ingling of tears and laughter he describes his journey from the front line righ t to. hia kiddies’ bedroom in th e fa r north. W ith hearty wishes from old friends h e departs and a newcomer (Lieut. L. H ubbard) singe “ The Song of V ictory.” The aptness of th is song a t th is particular stage of the war is imm ediately recog­nised, and the trium phant note ends am id thunderous applause. The song is another success to th e cred it of Corpl. F . E . W ilson. The lively scerie concludes w ith ., the singing of “ Our B a n d ” by the sergeant (Lance— Corpl. Lauri Howard, th is tithe in hospital blue). S o the curtain falls on an effective and anim ated p ic tu re th a t forms a fitting finale to a splendid en te rta in ­ment.

' . Special Mention.The m usical side of the revue was in the hands o f

T rum pet-M ajor W . J . McConnel, who led th e B lu e Boy Orchestra. The.orchestration had been undertaken by Bandsm an W alter M artin , who Also wrote th e liv e ly overture “ M y Excuse,” and .arranged th e incidental music.

Besides providing the “ book ” and taking th ree sm all parts, Capt. B. Green. Foley did valuable work aa general manager. T h a t bis show has delighted P ie r patrons is obvious by th e enthusiastic calls for au th o r with which th e curtain finally rings down. On th o opening n igh t Capt. Foley, responded in a neat lit t le speech, in which he expressed pleasure a t being able to presont “ the men who a re ' m akiug victory for u s absolutely certain .” .

A large share of the work has fallen on th e shoulders , of Lance-Corpl. L auri Howard, - who carries out with, his custom ary skill the duties of producer and s tage . manager. H e has arranged all the special dances w hich are so notew orthy a feature of the revue. I n th e train ing of th e company he has, expended a great deal of tim e and an infinite am ount of patience. F o r m any of his chorus th is was the “ first appearance on a n y . stage,” and they did their tu to r great credit. H e has throw n himself into the task w ith unabating en thu ­siasm, and bas displaced a rem arkable am ount o f genius in unearthing unexpected talent. .

As usual, the se tting of the various scenes evokes unbourided adm iration. The finale is a trium ph for a ll concerned. Special scenery was painted by and under th e direction of P riva te Spratley, the “ p ro p s” were m anufactured by Sergt. Rowley and CorpL B rels- ford. The former, w ith P riva te Storey, was in charge of all “ props,” and the latter, w ith P riv a te P arrish , carried out the duties of stage carpenter. O thers who worked indefatigably and gave , valued help were Sergtt T. E . W oods (assistant stage manager), Sergb. Sanders (eleotrician) arid P rivate F . A. V ernall (business manager). The frocks worn by the “ principal g ir l” were obtained from Messrs. Bobby & Co., L td .

T here will be a matinee th is afternoon and an even ing .perform ance to-night. T he proceeds of a ll perform ances, except th a t on Thursday afternoon, will be devoted, after the paym ent of expenses, to th e Camp funds. 0 n Thursday the company entertained the wounded from the m ilitary and auxiliary hospitals.

6 6 TH E PRICE of a GOOD TIM E.”.

F eaturing M ILDEED H A EEIS.

This,is a moving tale of a poor girl’s peep into “ LIFE” and the price she paid for it. There are two girls-in. the Winfield store and one- of them is asked by a rich young man about town, “ Did you ever have a good time?” “ No,” is the girl’s shy reply, and he offers to give her six happy evenings. She consents, and then commences six Arabian nights of joy for this stranger to happiness. Magnificent attire is bought for her and life is one glorious round of pleasures—the hotel, the theatre, the, dance. Every evening (Cinderella-like) she returns tp her poor

home—and the price paid. Well 1 it was worth it.V

F o r some little tim e M r. J . O. Towner has taken no very active in te rest in th e im portan t auctioneers and house and estate agents’ business of which he was the founder and head. Now, hav ing’ lost by death his partner, M r. H . J . Bromley, M r. Towner has decided to give up business entirely. The second of two auction sales y e t to be conducted will, we understand, comprise th e fu rn itu re and fittings of the offices and sale rooms, and th e business will “ close d o w n ” finally on October 30th. ■

M r. Towner has disposed of the property a t 57, Term inus-road to th e adjoining owners, Barclays’ Bank, L td ., who are thus enabled to m ake a substantial add i­tion to th e ir pala tia l officea

S tarting in Eastbourne in 1860, M r. Towner took his first auctioneer’s license in 1868, and has carried on the business unin terruptedly and w ith greiit success ever since. H is first auction catalogue was p rin ted a t the offices of th is firm.

U n til his re tirem ent from the alderm anic bench about two years ago M r. Towner was, for a lengthened period, a member of the Town Council. H e has always been a generous supporter of local institu tions and is held in high esteem by his fellow citizens. As our readers are aware, M r. Towner is chairm an of the Gas Company.

AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE.

D E A T H FO L L O W S O P E R A T IO N ON T H E T H R O A T .

A n inquest was held by M r. G. V ere Benson, on T hursday afternoon, a t the Town H all, on M r. Lewis H illm an, who had resided in U pperton-gardens.

Mrs. F rederica H illm an said her husband was 61 years of age. H e had been in failing health for 10 or 12 years.

D r. A. E . Rook said deceased had recently suffered from paralysis of the tongue, which seriously interfered w ith h is speech and the power of swallowing. T hat was due to an in jury to the nerve which supplied the tongue w ith motion. A t a consultation in London M r. H illm an was advised to undergo an operation, which would probably increase his power of speech and swallowing. T h at operation was perform ed on Sunday by M r. de SSnti, a th ro at specialist, w ith success. The p a tien t was p u t back to bed and shortly afterw ards i t was discovered th a t a t some tim e cerebral hemorrhage had supervened. Deceased never recovered conscious­ness and died about 24 hours later. Tiie case was some­w hat extraordinary, bu t w itness thought the stra in of the operation m ight have hastened the hemorrhage. T h a t was the direct cause of death.

The Coroner’s verdict was in accord with the doctor’s evidence. *

MR. CATHIE’S APPOINTMENT.M r. George Cathie, L .R .A .M ., the accomplished

leader and deputy conductor of Devonshire P ark Orchestra, has been appointed Musical Director of Buxton G ardens for the season 1919. In an appreciative allusion to the appointm ent the Buxton Advertiser sa y s : “ M r. C athie is a cu ltu red musician of wide experieLoe, and has proved himself to be a conductor of resource, vim and originality, not a mere beater of time. The audiences this week have been greatly pleased w ith M r. C athie’s readings, and the concerts have been most successful. Buxton music lovers will congratulate the directors upon their p rom pt action.”

In the same journal appears an interesting report of a series of concerts given by the Buxton Pavilion O rchestnF last.w eek under M r. C athie’s direction. A ppended is Bn ex tract from the n o tice :—

“ M r. C athie evidently believes in catering for a wide public, for paretically every type of piece possible to a small orchestra has appeared on his program m es during the week, from such compositions as Schubert’s “ Unfinished Sym phony” to the most popular .up-to- date ligh t comedy selections. I t is a poin t which many people in an audience are a p t to forget, th a t w hat they like is no t always w hat somebody else likes. I t is th is test of a good musical director, as to how far he can appeal to satisfy all tastes. By the very openly expressed rem arks of the concert-goers of Buxton, M r. Cathie seems to have been em inently successful in th is direction. L ast Sunday n ight’s concert was summed up by m any people as one of the finest Sunday concerts ever given in B uxton.”

EASTBOURNE OHKONIOJjE , SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1918.

T h e pleasant little slathering in t l P a rlo u r a fo rtn igh t ago, when M r. W . G. Osborne,, on th e occasion of his',Silver W edding, was presented w ith a Cheque for £5Q and Mrs. Osborne w ith teapot, did no t entirely ex h au s t'th e resources S affrons gift. Qn T hursday afternoon last, in th e account, M r. T om H itchin—whose services as hon. secretary of th e fund deserve unstin ted praise— had th e pleasure of handing to M r. Osborne a purse ^containing a fu rth e r sum of £6. 6s. Tlje total num ber of subscribers was 153.

* ■ * *Football, if no t ye t in full sw in g ,. is gettilng into

its stride and some good gam es rhav© already been seen in th e neighbourhood. On th e Summerdown Gamp ground on Saturday tlie B lue Boys were a t hom e to th e R .A .F . (Polegate), and though t ie wind som ew hat in terfered with th e play, a. very close and in te i;esting 'lhatch was the result. A t half tim'd, w ith th e wind behind them , th e A irm en w ere leading by tw o goals to one, and a fte r th e in terval they Iset up 6ueU. a stubborn defence th a t th e Cam p were .only ablo to score once—and th a t th rough a penalty—the gagie ending in a level draw of two goals all. [

* * '* ' !T here was very little to choose betw een the two

team s, bu t perhaps the" Sum m erdow ners were pnlucky n o t to win. They q u ite held their own in tljie first half and were pressing pradtically all th e timej in the second. B u t th e ir forw ards have no t y e t go t together and th e ir shooting was decidedly poor. T he Pole- ga te m en played surprisingly well, and , judging from th e ir form on Saturday, they a re go in g ' to be a difficult n u t to crack this season. j

c * * *B u t th e tim e fo r criticism is n o t yet. Wje m ust

w ait fo r th e m en to settle down and become accus­tom ed to each o ther’s playing before being jal}lo to ju d g e of their m erits properly. Still, eno u g h 1 was seen of individual play to m erit a word or tw o of praise. B oth goalkeepers, for' instance; ehowjed grand form and w ere exceptionally clever betv-ejen th e posts. Pym , th e Sum m erdown goalkeeper, form erly k ep t for E xeter City. Lance-Corporal Jam es played a Tine gam e a t r ig h t back for th e Camp, w hilst th e outside r ig h t m en on bo th sides \\p re very fa st and

. centred splendidly. * * *Except for L ieut. Sidebotham , no t one of l ist year’s

old b rigade rem ains in the Sum m erdown tea cn| T here was an unfam iliar look abou t them ‘ whij>h| was tendered all th e m ore so by th e m en appearing _in th e ir pew colours. T hey have discarded* th e ir fam iliar

• lig h t b lue jerseys and now play in white shirts with blue- collars and cuffs. T he change m atf be useful as beirig m ore distinctive on th e field, b u t is fa r as actual appearance is . concerned I p refer th e old colours. -The team is likely to see many1 changes before being finally chosen as representing t t e Camp, b u t on Saturday it was composed as follows: Scrgt. Pym , g o a l; I.ance-CorpL Jam es and Lance-Corpl. Blaylock, backs; Sergt. R eed, Sorgt. Leigfhtoh and G unner H urley , half-backs; . P te . F o re st,; Bomb. Johnson, G unner Brailsford, L ieut.

SUMMERDOWN CAMP NOTES.

Below a Napoloonesque cartoon of Capt. Cecil F. A rm strong in th e “ Summerdowri Camp Jo u rn a l,” thdi following appreciation is appended: “ Our* Alrmy ’ of Occupation has left us^-and wTords cannot express how m uch w© shall arid do miss h im ! T he first officer to jo in Sum m erdown Camp—before i t was ‘ JSjummprdown ’—he soon began to m ake it the hub of itho universe, as th e centre of military; a r t attrac- tiojn,, a,nd the home .of th e m ilitary dram a. The Sum m erdown 1 pan to ’ of th e Babes in the Wood— Xm as, 1915—was m em orable as placing all of us ‘ a fte r him (and Crombie) w ith th e soap.*. T he Second inlCommand and No Gentleman afforded him an oppor­tu n ity of displaying his histrionic abilities. W anted (his own play) showed th a t on the stage only he could play ‘ th e cad,’ and his dram a of S o m e Service is destined under the auspices of ‘ Ole Bill * to find ‘ a bepter ’o le ’ for its g rea t m erits than even Summer- down, where its production will ever be m em orable in the annals of th e s tag e .”

* * *The vocalist of th e piece, however, was L ieut.

H ubbard ; w-hdse beautifully m odulated baritone voice was listened to w ith the keenest p leasure and appre­ciation. Lance-Corpl.

Tho afternoon program m e: was provided by the courtesy of the m anagem ent entirely by the artistes appearing in the Pavilion and W inter G arden a t Devonshire Bark. Each item was cordially received and m any encores demanded. Mr. Jackson P o tte r sang th ree baritone songs in finished style. Miss Phyllis Rose entertained, tho audience with songs a t the piano, w ith th e hum our of which they appeared highly delighted. The. comic interludes for which M r.

These la tte r were associated in a couple of A m erican- duets. Mies 'Gwen Alban, besides presiding a t the piano for all accompaniments, contributed fo u r finely executed piano solos which obviously gave consider­able pleasnjr^ to her hearers. Finally the Gresham Singers appeared, and for a fine rendering of “ D rink to mo only w i th th ine e y e s” were enthusiastically recalled. iThcy also participated later in the pro­gram m e, ahd on th a t occasion vrero twice encored.

H . F u lle r, solicitor, of Seaford (appearing for com­plainan t), said th e m arriage took place a t B ishdpstone C hurch on F eb ru ary 6th, 1896, and fo r a num ber of y e a rs th e p a rtita lived a t W orth ing , where defendant w as em ployed as a paperh an g er and decorator. A b o u t Ju n e . 1915, he left W orth ing and w ent to tak e u p work of national im portance a t Woolwich A rsenal. L a te r th a t year his wife w ent to stay with h im for a fo rtn igh t, and on his direction she re tu rn ed a n d went] to jj iv e a t he r fa th e r’s hopee a t Bishop- s tone , where she had resided ever since. D efendant sp e n t Christm as, 1915, and Christm as, 1916, a t B ishopstone w ith his wife and th ey -co n tin u ed to correspond. D efendant did no t -spend ’C hristm as, 1917, a t Bishopstone,! and in consequence Mrs. H a r­w ood w rote to him as to th e fu ture, he r idea being th a t he should m ake a hom e for her. In M arch she received % reply from him , in which he s ta ted : “ I h a v e been living w ith you know who for nearly two y e ars and have a little boy nearly 12 m onths , old. T h e best th in g to do would be" to get rid e f m e a lto g e th e r. I suppose I shall have to tak e the blam e o f i t . ” C om plainant was loath to b ring the m atter before th e C ourt and an endeavour had been m ade o n h e r behalf to a rriv e a t some reasonable settlem ent fo r her, bu t th is had proved absolutely futile. D efen­d a n t seemed to have suggested divorce proceedings, b u t com plainant declined to tak e th a t course, and he th o u g h t she was qu ite r ig h t in th a t view.—Com­p la in an t said there were no children of th e m arriage.

, W hen she w ent tq sday w ith defendant a t P lum stead in 1915 she spoke to him as to a scandal about a girl a t W orth ing and ho denied the tru th of this., W hen h e first w ent to W oolwich his wages were £3 a week, And since then he had] been appointed an exam iner a n d had two rises in wages. T ill M arch last defen­d a n t had sen t her 7s. fid. a week.—D efendant said i t w as n o t his wish th a t com plainant w ent to her fa th e r’s house to live. H is wages now w.ere 56s- for a 48-hour week.—T h e C hairm an: W h at do you actually rece ive!

Ah excellent and varied program m e was carried out by th e members and a rem arkable am ount of ta len t was evinced by them in the different item s.

These local Societies are undoubtedly in a very flourishing condition and the fine performances which th ey con­sistently give of th e great oratorios, besides th e sub­stan tia l amounts raised for war charities, prove them to be no m ean asset to th e town.

A YEAR’S # E C 0 R D .

T he la test official re tu rn of town subscriptions for W ar Btinds is for the past 52 weeks, th a t is for exactly one ye%r. Eastbourne’s to ta l is £1,339,485. The am ount subscribed last week was £6,930, as compared with £14,060 in the preceding week.

October 28th to Novem ber 2nd is a “ W eek ” which th e residents are asked to devote specially to the interests of the R ed Cross W ar H ospital Supply Depot. T here can be few of our readers who are unfam iliar w ith th e splendid, many-sided activities of this im por­ta n t “ W ar Supply ” organisation, which is now in the fifth year of its existence, and has a wonderful record of usefulness standing to ' its credit. Owing to the rise in prices and increase of th e work the funds are urgently in need of support. D uring the past year 77,585 articles have been despatched and 213,486 have been sent since 1914.

T he coining W eek is to be th e occasion of a resolute and united effort to increase the financial stability of the undertaking, and in view of the great patrio tic and hum anitarian object in support of which the D ef'6c is m aintained, one anticipates w ith confidence the outcom'e' of the prospective appeal. A prodigious program m e, of a ttractions has been arranged, one or more events being allocated to each day. The Town H all has been engaged for th e week, a lady having generously made herself responsible for th e hiring charges. At> th is hall on M onday afternoon the K nuts K am p Boomedy Kom pany, of Summerdown Camp, are to lead tfie way w ith one of their singularly bright and humorous en ter­tainm ents. A grand C hristm as sale is announced for Tuesday, the day’s operations 'to conclude at* 7.30 p.m. w ith an auction. Three events are allocated to W ednes­day (“ Em blem D a y ”), the annual public m eeting (admission free) being fixed for 2 30, and. a popular whist drive for 7.30, w hilst a football rfiatch (to take place in the Saffrons) will commence a t 2.30.

On th e T hursday afternoon a concert will be held iri: th e Pavilion, Devonshire Park , the outstanding feature of the programme being Liza Lehm ann’s beautiful work, “ In a Persian garden,” which will be rendered, by distinguished London artistes. M r. V an L ier’s orchestra will play.- * A “ g reat bridge evening ” on the same day will have the Town H all as its venue, the arrangem ents for th is being in the hands of M r. G. F. T ilburn.. 1 j.

“ The F ly g h tie s” have prom ised to give two per­formances o n .F rid ay a t th e Town H all, and 911 the concluding day th e “ K n u ts” will again be in evidencet both afternoon and evening. T here will also, on this final day, be a gala ball a t the G rand H otel, which is likely to b e no t the least successful of the, various attractions. F u rth e r details of th e week’s program m e will be found in our advertisem ent columns. 4

. T he project is being very spiritedly taken Up, and in order th a t the D epot may derive the maximum of m onetary assistance;from the “ W eek,” the expenses will be k ep t a t the lowest possible figure, practically th e only disbursem ents being thbse for billing and advertising tire entertainm ents.. r .

On: Tuesday evening m any of th e congregation of St. A nne’s Church assembled in the choir vestry to witness a presentation to th e Rev. J . B. C. Ince, \vhr> is shortly leaving E astbourne to tak e up his position as V icar-E lect of Fairw arp . T he gjtft took the form of a sum of £30 and an illum inated address, on which la tte r were inscribed th e names of tho subscribers, upward© of 100 in num ber. . j

T he VlCAR (the. Rev. W . P . Jay), in some introduc­to ry rem arks, said th e , ready and 'lib e ra l way in which tho fund had been subscribed was a source of sincere pleasure. T hey h^d- been like brothers! and sisters in helping th e ir esteemed frien d in w hat they hoped-would be a p leasant move to a p leasant parish in a very pleasant ico.untry district. T he exppnse^i had been kep t to th e lowest point, and the prepara­tion of th e address and subscribers’ nam es had ibeenl; very kindly and • tastefully! done by an old chtnFfcb'- w ardeii.of the parish. 1 .

S ir St e y n in g E dg'ErlEY (V icar’s warden), in m aking th e p resentation , said the idea of tho testi­m onial had no t o rig inated .with, himself or. the V icar o r M r. Pulsford (the people’s .warden), bu t wajs tho spontaneous suggestion of m any m em bers of the con­gregation , who fe lt they ough t no t to let Mr.j Ince go w ithout offering- him some m ark of th e ir regard , appreciation’ and good wishes. Practically the [whole lab o u r of organising the fund had devolved op Mr. Pulsford, wrho had taken up th e m atte r con amore and brough t i t to a happy issue. Proceeding, S ir Steyning said the_ services of M r. Ince a t St. A nne’s had extended over nearly th ree years—the h ird es t and m ost anxious years th e m ajority of th e n had probably ever experienced. * T hey m uch valued M r. Ince’s earnest and assiduous lab o u rs .' T here wae g reat power in the quiet discharge of duties tl^at fell im m ediately to one’s lot—in doing /with all one’s m ig h t w hatever one’s hands found to do, -without seeking notoriety , m indful only of the obligation to discharge one’s duty faithfully. They were plaid to have recognised th a t sp irit in their friends M r. and Mrs. .Ince, iand i t wTas in no form al or affected m anner th a t they wished them “ God sp e e d ” in th e ‘task to which they had been called by the Bishop. W ith these wishes' they askecj their acceptance of £. sm all lea ther case containing a cheque and an additional sum of £5 ju s t received, m aking together £q0, a n d the address already referred, which latter- i t w as hoped Mr. Ince m igh t see his way -to- h$ng lip in hia study. Sir Steyning, in a fqw suitable words, then m ade th e presentation, the handing of the g ift to th e recipient provoking a hearty round of applause.

T h e Rev. J . B. C. INCE, who rose am id applause, expressed his appreciation, and thanked S ir S teyn ing Edgerley for including Mrs. Ince in his kindly trib u te . In Iv '011 ring him th e B ishop hdd also honoured the r ople of St. Anne*6, and he h ad honoured them fa rth e r by offering th e V icar th e best living he had in ’ his 'gift—all w ithin a week..

The V ica r expressed pleasure th a t they should have been able to' get so m uch money. I t showed the^ g reat deal of kind, sym pathy th ere was iii th o parish for M r. Ince.

Councillor J . W. P u lsfo r d assured Mr. Ince th a t the m oney had been subscribed m ost readily, and n o one had-been asked to give. They thought a t first of m aking a p resen t to M rs Inec, bu t felt th a t at; tho p resen t tim e it was b e tte r to do as they had done, b u t as th ere was £5 in notes in the case Mrs! Inco had b e tte r m ake a raid dn*it (laughter). Mr. Pu ls- fbrd m entioned the unavoidable absence of th e R ev . W . F. Aston, M r. M arshall and Councillor F. Hollins.
