In the ' Never Never' Land
The work of the Australian Inland
Mission by the Rev. W. W. PATON
This afternoon the Rev. W. W. Paton is to tell a unique story of Christian work, carried on with the help of aeroplane and radio.
Mr. Paton, who was formerly assistant minister at Dalmarnock, near Glasgow, and has recently taken over the charge of the Presbyterian Church at Victoria Docks in East London, has spent some years in Australia. He acted as deputy for the Convener of the Australian Inland Mission, and knows all its work intimately.

JOHN McKENNA (tenor)
THE BROSA STRING QUARTET: Antonio Brosa (violin) ; Norman Chappie (violin); Leonard Rubens (viola); Livio Mannucci (violoncello)
(First performance in England)
After remaining in manuscript for over fifty years, some early songs of Hugo Wolf , dating from the period 1878-1883, are about to be published. They have been edited by Professor Dr. Helmut Schultz of the Musikwissenschaft Verlag in Vienna, and copies have been brought to London by Dr. Waldemar Rosen. The six songs to be sung now have thus never been heard before in England. The manuscripts had been left as part of a legacy to a family with whom Wolf had been closely connected, but the performing rights belonged to the Richard Wagner Society, and it is probably owing to legal difficulties that their publication has been withheld up to now.

An appeal on behalf of THE CORNWALL PREVENTIVE AND
RESCUE ASSOCIATION by the Ven. G. W. HOCKLEY,
Archdeacon of Cornwall
Today's appeal is for the social welfare work in the county of Cornwall where a scattered population makes finance and organisation unusually difficult, and where besides maintaining a maternity and training home, the County Association provides two trained children's workers whose services are in constant demand.

Modern Poetry
W. B. YEATS
The first National Lecture was given by Robert Bridges on Poetry on February 28, 1929. Tonight W. B. Yeats is to give the eighteenth National Lecture.
There are few finer intellects or more romantic figures in the modern world than William Butler Yeats , who was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865, who left art for literature when he was twenty-one, has been poet, essayist, playwright for two generations, and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1923. He was a Senator of the Irish Free State from 1923 to 1928.
Not the least of his achievements was the part he played in the founding of the Abbey Theatre, Dublin. When the Abbey Theatre broadcast one of his early one-act plays The Land of Heart's Desire, in August, 1934, it was told by Lennox Robinson in THE RADIO Times how, thirty-six years before, Yeats and his friends, at a period of national discouragement, set out to recreate a movement of Irish culture. He, with Lady Gregory and others, set out to make a theatre with no money, without a building, without a company, and with only a couple of plays. For years they struggled, and eventually, through Miss Horniman, were to have their own theatre, long since world-famous, and to give plays important not only to Ireland, but to the theatrical repertory of the world.
