A programme for children under five
Nursery rhymes, stories, and music
There is one part of these broadcasts for the under-fives about which we receive constant requests for information-the piano duet which closes them It it the Berceuse from the suite ' Dolly,' by Gabriel Faur6. When these programmes, began, we announced it as ' sleepy ' music, and many children accepted the suggestion; some enjoyed just pretending to go to sleep when they heard it; others really accepted it as the signal for settling down. Many rocked their dolls and teddy bear* to sleep-like the little girl who picked up her doll and was busily rocking it, when the announcer's voice cut the music off. " He's spoiling it!" she cried indignantly.' But there were some who resented the suggestion of going to sleep, and others to whom the music genuinely did not suggest sleepiness. So we soon ceased to call it * sleepy ' music, and left it to make its own appeal to each individual imagination.
With the passing of time, ' Dolly seems to have become a much-loved part
- of these broadcasts, in spite of the fact that it is sometimes greeted with tears-for it heralds the end of the programme

Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Lesley Wilson
Last week Ronnie Mallory proposed to Miss Pink. Miss Pink persuaded Sally to tell him the truth, that she was in fact Maud French's secretary and not her daughter as she had led him to believe. Bob met Mac's nephew, Andrew MacGregor , who is apparently going to manage the new branch. Bob was very disappointed as he had hoped to fill the position. Mrs. Dala had a letter from Gwen saying that she had resigned from her firm. The same evening Sally came to see the Dales and when she heard about Gwen, suggested that she should take the position as secretary to Richard Fulton , a famous author, who was looking for someone to help him. The Dales thought it a good idea and Mrs. Dale wrote and told Gwen about it. Mrs. Freeman returned from her holiday with Maud French at Bournemouth.
