The Same Story begins with the opening night of Larry Weston's first play—a night of triumph marred only by the threat of a plagiarism suit which is handed to the producer almost as soon as the curtain is down! Although the author has always insisted that his play is an account of a personal experience of his own, it 'transpires intriguingly that a novel with an identical situation has been written in Italy !by a girl who is a complete stranger to Weston.

Appeal on behalf of the Caldecott Community by Mrs. Mary Stocks
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
The Caldecott Communitty is a residential school for children with abnormal home conditions. The parents may have separated, or severe friction may exist between them; in other cases one or both parents may be dead, or the home may be faced with chronic illness with financial stress aggravating the situation.
From such backgrounds children become disturbed, difficult, and unhappy, and without skilled sympathetic understanding in a secure environment they cannot thrive. The Community provides such an environment, but at the same time children are kept in touch with their own people by regular holidays and visits, or, if entirely homeless, with foster-parents interes.ted in their welfare.
County authorities are responsible for the fees of children sent through their Education or Children's Committees, but there are many children needing the help of the Community for whose maintenance funds must be found from voluntary sources.

Episode 3
Produced by Howard Rose
Jane Eyre, an orphan, brought up under the care of her aunt Mrs. Reed, who disliked her intensely, was sent to Lowood Institution, Mrs. Reed being only too glad to be rid of her poor relation.' Life at the Institution, under the direction of Mr. Brocklehurst. was run under spartan conditions. The children suffered from semi-starvation and intense cold, and in consequence their health deteriorated. Fever swept through the school and many of the pupils died, among them Helen Bains, whom Jane had grown to Jove. Miss Temple, the headmistress, full of gentle goodness, endeavoured to bring both physical and mental comfort into the Lives of her pupils in spite of the harsh and rigorous rules laid down by Mr. Brocklehurst. Jane remained at Lowood for eight years--six as a pupil and two as a teacher -and then, feeling the necessity for wider experience, advertised for a position as a children's governess. In this capacity she set out on a iourney to Mrs. Fairfax of Thornfield Hall, near Millcote.
