A programme for children under five
Nursery rhymes, stories, and music
A small child loves to be useful as many a harassed mother knows. It gives him a place in the world, and when it draws the kindly approval of adults self-esteem is assured. Today's story by Betty Coombs , about a girl who had ' Nothing to do ' but found herself spending a useful and well-rewarded afternoon, touches this chord of feeling. Dorothy Smith tells the tale, and also those for Wednesday and Thursday, ' The Mouse that Ran up the Clock ' by Ann Elliott , and ' Goog's Ride to London ' by Carol Woollcombe. The latter -told about himself by a mother to her little boy-is an expression of the need for dreaming dreams to compensate for the things that cannot really be done. On Tuesday and on Friday Daphne Oxenford is the storyteller, and the stories are ' Wonga and the Tom-Tom ' by Anne Reed , and ' Five Ducks on a Farm ' by Leila Berg. They are as widely contrasted as their tides suggest. Wonga lives in Africa and the five ducks on a homely farm, but the motives of little boys are similar all the world over, and ducklings always like the rain Elizabeth A. Taylor

The Jimmy Leach Organolian Quartet

Script by Joan Carr-Jones
Last week Mrs. Sandiman resigned from the board of the Brimscombe House Old People's Home and Mrs. Dale agreed to run it until they could get a new matron and staff. Mrs. Freeman celebrated her seventieth birthday on Monday. Isabel Fielding upset her by giving her a hamper of tinned foods which Mrs. Freeman thought was being treated like one of the old folks. Dr. Dale went to see Tony Coppard at Sally's cottage and told him he had found out that he was engaged. He said that unless Tony left Sally he would tell her. During the evening, when Dr. Dale was telling Bob about the incident, Sally arrived. She was furious with Dr. Dale for interfering, and said that Tony had written a note to say he had left because it was unfair to burden her. Dr. Dale told Sally the truth about the matter. Maggs told Mrs. Morgan he had had a pen-friend for two years and that she was coming to see him. She turned out to be a pretty little widow.
