A programme for children under five
Nursery rhymes, stories, and music
' Junior Lamb. ' Daphne Awkward. ' ' Captalcen Edwards ,' and ' Doll-lady
Sniff' — names that our small listeners would recognise in a moment as belonging to their ' story ladies.' atf four of whom they will hear in their programmes this week. This is something new, for it was only last week that we initiated a change in the presentation of these programmes so that now, instead of waiting two or three months for one or other of their storytellers, our under-fives may hear more than one telling their stories in the same week. This week they will hear three. Today and on Friday, Julia Lang relates the stories of ' Daisy of Beech Farm by Leah Maizel , and ' Rackettypan the Scarecrow ' by Ursula Hourihane. Tomorrow and on Wednesday, come the tales of ' The Three Naughty Pussycats,' told by Daphne Uxenfoid , and on Thursday, Do othy Smith tells an old favourite, ' The Little Nurse.' by E. Mallett. Catherine Edwards will be here again each day to introduce the nursery rhymes and storyteller. On Friday she will also introduce a new friend, Lorna Pegram , who is to be her co-presenter and who will take her place at the microphone for the next two weeks. Elizabeth A. Taylor

Last Saturday was Zenobia's wedding day. At the reception given by Sally, Dr. Dale proposed the toast and when Joe, the groom, stood up to respond, he knocked over the tea table. Zenobia and Joe travelled to Sandbourne for their honeymoon, where Bob met them. He introduced them to Ashley Weston and Zenobia was thrilled to meet an actor.
Gwen went for a walk with David and Tiggy. She fell and sprained her ankle. As she was unable to go to Mr. Fulton he decided to work at her flat. He did not find it easy, however, because they were constantly interrupted. Tiggy Fielding, still at the Dales, tried to drive the Doctor's new car out of the garage and crashed it into the apple-racks.
