T ISTENERS will welcome this reappearance before the microphone after Mrs. Cran's long absence. She appears under the auspices of the National Gardens Guild, whose object is to encourage the growing of flowers in industrial and populous centres of Great Britain and to federate the numerous Gardens Guild branches in different parts of the country. Mrs. Cran's subject is ' The Small Garden '-a feature particularly encouraged by the Guild, that holds, for instance, annual competitions for the best-kept garden in the suburbs.
