WELSH HOME LIFE UNIFORM There Is No Upper Middle Class and and Shop Keepers Are Usually
 the Leaders.

The student Of Welsh life and char acter who encounters almost any VII lage in North Wales will be able to acquire d full knowledge of his sub feet without traveling a mile further. For Welsh life has a certain quality Of uniformity which is not found m the other constituent peoples of the empire.
 Practically there is no upper mfddis class in Wales. A few rich middle class Welsh families there are, but these. even if they keep up Welsh home. usually draw their wealth and spend 1t beyond the Welsh border. II, however. the visitor wishes to know who controls public opinion who sits on the distric, and county councils. or even who represents the division Ia the house of commons. he had much better regard the names painted over the shop fronts than try to discover the identity of the occupants of tho lavish red brick villa which looks down into the village from its place on the hillside. The owner of the villa. as likely as not, will be found Co be an Englishman-a retired Manchester contton spinner or a ship owner from Liverpool
