One of the two Rural Science courses starts today: that on the School Garden, which alternates on Fridays with Sir John Russell's talk on 'How Science came into Farming.' These courses are meant chiefly for rural schools, but form a science course suitable for others as well. Besides these, two other Friday courses begin today: the geography talks, which are on 'Life and Work in the British Isles,' and will be broadcast by various speakers, and Mr. Frank Roscoe's informal Friday Afternoon Stories and Talks, which will be continued during the Autumn and Spring Terms. A new series of concerts is to be given, alternating with dramatic readings from Shakespeare and Dickens.

Reception Test

The Rt. Hon. H.B. Lees-Smith, M.P.: 'An Introduction to the Series'
This is the last of the introductory talks in JL the five sections of the Changing World symposium: the talks proper begin next week. Mr. Lees-Smith is well qualified to talk about education: he gave up a Woolwich cadetship in order to go up to Oxford, and he has been associated with Ruskin College since its foundation in 1899. The first twelve talks of this series are concerned with Education, the second with Leisure. In these, as in all the Changing World talks, the speakers will approach their subject from the particular angle of the effect of the forces of transformation at work in the world. Professor John MacMurray will open the first half of the series next Friday.
