The Great Days of the Cotswolds ' EILEEN POWER (Professor of Economic
History in the University of London)
Last week Professor Eileen Power told you about the Cotswolds under Roman rule. Today she is to describe the Great Days of the Cotswolds. The sheep-farmers of the Middle Ages ; the monasteries-Gloucester Abbey, Hayles Abbey, and Winchcombe. The ' woolmen ' ; Northleach and its church; brasses. A wool merchant of Campden and his house ; market halls and pack horses. The cloth trade ; and old Cotswold mills.
There will be many things for you to ot down in your notebooks while you listen to this talk. Things about woo and things about mills. Is there a mill standing in your district ? ... Why is the Lord Chancellor's seat in the House of Lords called the Woolsack ? What are ' tithes ' that we hear so much about today ? Were there ever monasteries in your district where the monks carried on agriculture or sheep-farming ?

' Government—Now and Then '—4
' The Borough—Then '
K. C. BOSWELL
Last week Commander King-Hall told you about Borough Councils and Urban
District Councils as they exist today. This afternoon Mr. K. C. Boswell is to tell you about the Boroughs of olden days. He will speak of times when towns grew up out of waste or wood or meadowland, and how they helped in the work of governing the country.

How Life is Lived-4,
' Do Plants " feel " ? '
DORIS L. MACKINNON , D.Sc. (Professor of Zoology, King's College, University of London)
This afternoon Professor Doris Mac kinnon is to talk about ' sensitive' plants and tendrils. All shoots are sensitive to the light they must have, and grow towards it. All roots are sensitive to the earth and water they must have, and grow towards them. In this way plants feel. The blind, living seed in the ground follows the only course by which it can survive. Put it in upside down-it makes no difference. The shoot will bend round and grow upward ; the root will bend round and grow down.
There are other plants that are sensitive to touch. Touch a stinging nettle and you'll know it. Touch a white petal of a gardenia and it turns brown.
Touch the leaflets of the wood sorrel and they will gradually fold down against the leaf stalk. Professor Mackinnon will give you many other examples of how plants feel.
