*' Today,' announced a small boy of four, ' I'm going to tell you a story of a fire engine, and how it lost its bell. Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin.'
This little boy, says his mother, ' 'loves to be the lady in the wireless, which consists either of a large round tray held up in front of him, or of my small clothes horse covered with newspapers under which he crouches.' He invents complete Listen with Mother ' programmes, sometimes the ' stories ' in his ' 'broadcasts '-like the one referred to here-are based on those he has heard there. H;s fire-engine story was based on Ruth Simonis' story, about the great ship Empress, whose foghorn was lost and found-with bell and fire engine replacing foghorn and ship! It is this story, together with its two companion tales that Daphne Oxenford tells again on rhe last three days of this week.
Today's story, too, may provide a source of play, though perhaps of another kind. It is a new one called ' Ian and the Watch,' by Esther Provis and will be told by Dorothy Smith , as will also tomorrow's favourite tale by Dorothy D:xon about Pussy White. Elizabeth A. Taylor

Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Lesley Wilson
Last week Gwen had a son. David didn't think he was very attractive, but Dr. Dale re-assured him! Sally came to spend an evening with Mrs. Dale. While Mrs. Dale was out of the room, Bob told Sally he had seen a customer in Berridges, a very attractive girl, who appealed to him. Mrs. Fielding's guest, Trudi, called with a message from Gwen, and to Bob's astonishment it was the girl he had seen in Berridges. Maud French met David's mother at Virginia Lodge and heard from her about Richard Fulton's early love-affair. Maud then threatened Richard Fulton that unless he let her use the photograph taken of him at his flat she would include his love-story in the article. Mrs. Freeman heard about it and told Maud unless she dropped the idea she would have nothing more to do with her.
