'Timothy's Shoes '
A play by Barbara Sleigh from the story by Juliana Horatia Ewing
Production by Josephine Plummer
Long before Timothy saw the light of day his mother was very anxious about the responsibilities of having a family of children. When her first baby was born she poured her troubles into the sympathetic ear of her godmother, who, being a fairy godmother, could be expected to give her the best of advice. Not only that, she promised to come to the christening and bring the baby a present. It was a little pair of shoes — but they were no ordinary shoes, for they never wore out. Timothy's eight brothers all wore them in turn, and at length they became 'Timothy's Shoes.'

Greenwoods is a community on the outskirts of the village of Stock in Essex. The main house is open to people of all ages from all parts of the country who need to find healing of body, mind' and spirit. Broken marriages, mentalbreakdowns, inability to deal with the stresses of modern life-these are the problems faced at Greenwoods
In the 116 acres of parkland and woods, camps for young people ' are organised throughout the year, with as many as six hundred under canvas at one time. A Boys' Home is being built in the grounds for youngsters who get into trouble. Instead of segregating them from the rest of society they are brought into the midst of a challenging environment.
Between c4,000 and L5,000 is needed annually from voluntary sources to carry on this many-sided work of rehabilitation.

Episode 7
Produced by Howard Rose
On the afternoon of the day following rhe strange and lonely vigil that Jane had passed tending to the wants of Mr. Rochester's wounded friend, Mr. Mason, she received a caller-none other than her former nurse, Bessie-who came with news that Jane's aunt, Mrs. Reed, was gravely ill and desired to see her niece.
In the sick room at Gateshead the dying woman informed Jane of a letter she had received from John Eyre, Jane's uncle in Madeira, in which he stated that he wished to adopt Jane and make her his heir. Because of her intense dislike of her niece, Mrs. Reed had concealed rhas news and given John Eyre to underhand that Jane had died of fever at Lowood Institution. Jane forgave her aunt, and after Mrs. Reed's death returned to Thornfield Hall.
Never had she loved her master so well.
Never had he so frequently oaHed her to his presence. A fortnight later Mr. Rochester declared his love, and Jane accepted his hand in marriage.
by Sir Edward Boyle Member of Parliament for Birmingham (Handsworth)
The speaker reflects on the problems and reponsibilities that belong to this generation of M.P.s, and contrasts the difficult and intricate questions that face them every day with the comparatively straightforward political issues of their grand-fathers' time.
This is the fifth of a group of talks by representatives of the Queen's generation.
