Overture, The Wreckers ........ Ethel Smyth
IN this prelude to an opera which tells a grim story of coastal wrecking of ships for the purpose of plunder, religious fervour incredibly allied to this practice in the character of the Cornish natives, the condemnation of the lovers to death by drowning in a smugglers' cave, and a strange mingling of romance and cruelty, Dame Ethel Smyth has brought together the main themes of the opera which illustrate these incongruous but closely related elements. The Wreckers had its first performance in Leipzig in 1906, was given in London before the War, and in two or three seasons after it, the most recent being in September last at Covent Garden Theatre. Listeners will remember that it was then broadcast.

Mr. J. H. DRIBERG : BERG Tho Didinga, a Tribe of Warrior Herdsmen'
MK. DRIBERG was lately a District Commissioner in the Uganda Civil Service and the Sudan Political Service, and is now lecturer in Ethnology at Cambridge University. He has also translated and published a collection of African poems. He knows the Didinga tribe both as an administrator and a trained anthropologist, and this vivid talk will bring home to listeners the conditions and pioblems of the administration of our African Colonies, and a great deal of the fascinating atmosphere and extensive native culture that only a sympathetic observer can capture.
