THIS is the second of Miss Spielmann's two talks on Domestic Fatigue. The Institute of Industrial Psychology is shortly conducting a series of researches into household conditions in this country, and it is Miss Spielmann's wish to interest listeners in this and to obtain their useful co-operation. In this connection a questionnaire is printed on page 348.

THIS is the third of the series of twelve broadcasts which aim at bringing some of the problems of the various younger peoples clubs and societies to the notice of the general public... Following upon the first four talks, or discussions, by the girls or boys themselves, under the chairmanship of men or women connected with work among young people, there will be a discussion by the four Chairmen, who will deal with some of the points brought out by the previous talks. This, in turn, will be followed, it is hoped, by talks on various aspects of young people's organizations, such as self-government in Clubs, the lost years, athletics for boys and girls, etc.

DEBUSSY'S SONGS
Sung by ANNE THURSFIELD (Soprano)
Beau Soir (1878) (Fair Evening)
Voici quo !e prmtemps (1880)
Mandoline (1880)
Air de Lia (1884) (Lia's Song, 'The Prodigal
Son')
Romance (1887)
DEBUSSY'S songs are all laid out with a fine sense of the importance of the accompaniment ; they might quite fittingly be called duets for voice and pianoforte. Like most French-men, he had a highly-cultured literary sense, and the poems he chose to set were much more than mere pegs on which to hang music. His settings do indeed seem to grow out of the text in a very spontaneous way, not merely illustrating it, but expressing it, with a wholly satisfying completeness. He was equally at home in songs of many different moods; some of his love songs, tender, sensitive, or passionate, are very beautiful, and there are others of more intimate personal feeling, varying between humour and rather weird tragedy. He left a number of fresh and breezy open-air songs, and there are three fine settings of ' Villon ' ballads, expressing the most varied emotions.
However little, as an instrumental composer, he may appeal to some of the older generation who like their music to be formal, there has never been any doubt that his songs are among the best things which French music of the last generation gave us.
