Nursery rhymes, stories, and music
Many of our listeners will recall Dan Pig. * I wish,' said a correspondent, after the story was heard for the first time, you could see the faces of these children and hear the roars of laughter when Dan Pig grunts and laughs.' Dan Pig 's amusing noises are exactly in line with a small child's idea of fun. When he stands very still, then startles the dog and the cat with a grunt, he is playing just the kind of trick that small children love. On Thursday the admirers of this rather naughty pig may hear his story again. It was written by P. M. Worvill , and will be told by Daphne Oxenford , who comes on Friday too, with a tale called ' Betsy,' by H. E. Walker. Today, tomorrow, and on Wednesday Dorothy Smith brings back that naughty little sister in the stories by Dorothy Edwards , two of which, ' Going Fishing.' and ' The Wiggly Tooth,' we have heard before. The third is a new one, in which she ' does knitting.'

Last week Sally asked Miss Pink to her cottage for the week-end, and forgetting the invitation told Richard Fulton he could stay there. When she realised what she had done she wrote and put Miss Pink off till the following week-end. When she arrived at the cottage, late on Saturday night, she discovered she still had the letter in her handbag. Mr. Fulton, unable to bear Miss Pink's coyness, locked himself in his bedroom. The Dr. and Mrs. Dale went to Sandbourne for a few days. While they were away, Gwen fell down when fixing some curtains. Dr. Laurie said she was to be kept in bed. Isabel Fielding sent for Mrs. Dale. Peter Kingston and Rob had a row because Jenny had broken her engagement with Peter, and Peter blamed Bob for it.
