The Annual Garden F£te and Sale of Work will be held on July 15, in the Vicar¬ age grounds. There will be all the usual attractions and we hope fine weather. Con¬ tributions are earnestly asked for the Fancy Stall, Flower Stall, and for the Tea. We notice the poster says nothing about dancing, but, of course, that is taken for granted as part of the regular programme. The congregations on Whit-Sunday were above the average and the number of com¬ municants good. The Vicar was away on the second and third Sundays in June, and we must thank the Vicar of Llangurig for relieving him of the necessity of returning home by cycling down to take the early celebrations.

The Vicar will be away, superintending the Oxford Local Examination at Dolgelley School, but his place will be taken by his brother, the Vicar of St. Mary's, Frome.

Davies, M.P., had kindly allowed to be thrown open to the visitors. The vinery and various green¬ houses—with their varied and magnificent display of fruit and flowers—the poultry yard, and kitchen garden were visited in turn, and after seeing the fox and other hounds in their kennels, the party somewhat reluctantly made their exit, all being delighted with what they had seen and feeling grateful to the Plas Dinam family for their kindness. In a drenching downpour they proceeded to
