        YSTRADYFODWG SCHOOL BOARD.

        At a meeting of the above Board held at Pentre, on Monday, under the presidency of Mr. W. W. Hood, it was agreed to lease an acre of land, at 1 1/2d per yard, on the De Winton estate at Llwynypia, for the site of a new school to be built next year.

        The Rev. W. Lewis, (vicar), objected to the school-management committee transferring or promoting teachers from one school to another without consulting a general meeting of the Board.

        It was decided to adopt a precept of £6,000 for the ensuing six months.

        Mr Gwilym Lewis, assistant master at the Ystrad Higher Grade School, was appointed master of the Maerdy School, and Miss Jones, Ferndale, was appointed head mistress of the Pontygwaith School.

        A vote of thanks was accorded to the chairman and vice-chairman for their excellent services on the Board during the last three years.

        This was the last meeting previous to the election.
