The Colonial Empire
Miss MARGARET WRONG :'British Rule in Africa-Education'
THIS EVENING'S BROADCAST on Education in Africa will deal with the importance and complication of native education ; the difficulties of language, and of dealing with a strange mentality; the Government and missionary contributions ; the clash of Western ideas of education with tribal custom; and some recent educational experiments.
Margaret Wrong, who is Secretary to the International Committee on Christian Literature for Africa, has not long been back from a tour round the Continent of Africa by boat, car, and aeroplane. It will be remembered that she broadcast a Missionary Talk on meeting the literature needs in Africa today, under the heading of 'The Talking Leaf' on January 28.
