German Dialogue-I
' Die Hafenrundfahrt'
OTTO G. LEWALD and MARGOT BERGER
During the nineteenth century the Czechs produced three eminent composers-Smetana, Dvorak, and Fibich.
Zdenko Fibich (1850-1900) was not so imbued with the national spirit as Smetana and Dvorak. His musical education had been essentially German. He wrote about 700 works, of which 350 short piano pieces, forming a kind of musical diary under the title of ' Moods, Impressions, and Memories ', are particularly noteworthy. The charming ' Poème ', well-known as a violin solo and also as a waltz-song, belongs to this diary.

The Practice and Science of Gardening-
' Garden Planning and Crop
Rotations'
F. W. COSTIN , F.R.H.S.
This talk starts a new term, and this term starts a new school year. Once again Dr. Keen and Mr. Costin are to share this series, the former talking to Schools on the scientific side of gardening, and the latter on the practical. side of it.
In today's talk Mr. Costin, who is
Horticultural Superintendent of the West Sussex County Council, is to tell Schools about the importance of garden planning and crop rotation, for these two things are as necessary to the study of garden science as they are to the practical use and enjoyment of gardening. Without management a garden is a place of weeds, of lettuces running to seed, of roses gone wild. It may be a beautiful place for butterflies and artists, but not for the gardener. He must have method, ruthlessness in cutting back, a capacity for work, a knowledge of soil, for he has to make the most of its good qualities and correct its bad ones by intelligent cultivation and manuring.
Introductory Lesson
1-'Pulse in Music and the Home
Note of a Tune '
ERNEST READ, F.R.A.M.
These lessons, also the junior concert lessons on alternate Mondays, are covering similar ground to that covered last year, but very much more slowly. This is in response to teachers' criticisms that hitherto the course has been too rapid to be easily followed. Ernest Read broadcasts on Mondays instead of on Tuesdays as in the past.

GEOFFREY BOUMPHREY
This evening Geoffrey Boumphrey gives his last talk in this series, and continues his survey of town planning and modern architecture on the continent. Listeners will remember that he made a personal tour of the countries and towns he visited and brought back a number of photographs. Some of these were reproduced last week, and an example of the slum-clearing in Rome is shown on the previous page. He will give a summary of the conclusions at which he has arrived.
JAMES AGATE
VALENTINE BELL
Valentine Bell , who gave two talks in this series last week, is to give two more, both of them this week. This evening he will discuss the question of juvenile unemployment, and on Thursday show some of the many things that are being done to alleviate it.
Listeners will remember that Valentine Bell drew up the notable report for the Carnegie United Kingdom Trust on Junior Instruction Centres and their Future. Since then he has visited some of these centres in every part of Britain ; seen again at first hand the places where young men and women are being helped to face both the present and future, and are being trained to earn their living as soon as the jobs come along.
He will speak of the experiment of transferring juveniles to districts where jobs are more likely to be found ; of the great work that is being done by Government, Local Government, and Voluntary organisations ; of the ' Keep-fit ' movement in the places where unemployment is gravest; of the camps he has visited ; of conversations he has had with some of these young men and women themselves.
The need for leaders, premises, and athletic grounds; the -fine work of evening institutes; the question of co-operation between voluntary and statutory bodies, and of the need for a central Youth Council-will be discussed in these talks.
