Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
(To be repeated tomorrow at 11.0 a.m.)

Last week Mrs. Freeman had a birthday. Isabel Fielding gave her a collar with silver bells on for Captain. The constant tinkling got so much on Mrs. Freeman's nerves that she threw the collar into the bushes, hoping to lose it. Unfortunately Isabel found it and said she was going to get a silver lock so Captain could not lose it again. Gwen went to Wales with David. When they arrived Mr. Fulton was already there. He told Gwen that Jenny, David's sister, resented her. When Gwen did meet Jenny she was very hostile towards Gwen. Gwen and Mr. Fulton had a row and Mr. Fulton decided to go back to London. Gwen and David became unofficially engaged and Gwen telephoned to tell Dr. and Mrs. Dale. Mrs. Owen gave Gwen a ring that she said was a family heirloom.
