For Younger Listeners
Two tales from ' Round the World Stories ' by Stella Mead
1—'A Horse or an Egg'
A tale from Denmark told by David followed by * Peterkin '
Adapted by Olive Dehn from the book by Mrs. Molesworth
2—' Margaret'
Produced by Eve
Burgess Giles : ' 1 really don't quite know what made me listen to Peterkin's fancies about his invisible Princess, as we got into the habit of calling her. I suppose, when anybody quite believes in a thing, it's rather catching, and Peterkin's head was so stuffed and crammed with fairy-stories, that the idea of an enchanted little girl did not strike him as at all out of the way.'
5.50 Children's Hour prayers conducted by the Rev. Frederick Levison
