MINERS ARE PROUD OF
THEIR BRASS BAND By J, C. Griffier.

The miners of Pare and. Dare collieries (Cwmpare, Rhondda), are proud of their brass band. It is over years since the band was first formed, and in that period it has blown itself to fame not only in Wales but beyond the Border as well. For the second year in succession these miner musicians have won the top-class champion- ship in the Welsh national brass bands' contest.
At Cardiff recently they won by a comfortable margin of 10 points, gaining 190 out of possible 200 against all their keenest rivals, including their oldest challengers Gwaun-che- Gurwen.
