RICHARD Morse : 8, ' A Foggy Day '
Fogs do not come to us by chance. Every foggy day has a meaning for those who can read it. There is little or no difference between mists, fogs, and clouds, and some of the densest fogs are simply clouds that lie at ground level.
The water drops of a fog are exceedingly small, and they do not run together and form large drops ; if they did, the fog would turn into rain. The wild creatures of the countryside respond to fog in many different ways, which are always interesting to watch. Mr. Richard Morse will give you some exampies this afternoon.

Sir JAMES JEANS, F.R.S. :
' Other Suns than Ours '
Last week Sir James Jeans took us in imagination to the sun, and we ventured inside it and tried to find out \\hat was happening there. This evening he is to take us on a visit to some of the 1,000,000,000 other stars which are discernible with a big telescope and are very much like the sun. They differ in size, colour, and condition. Some are thousands of times more luminous, others are millions of times bigger. But we shall see that our sun compares very favourably. He is at least steady-going and reiiable-unlike some other stars which behave in very odd ways.
