C. C. GADDUM
In this broadcast C C. Gaddum will explain why evergreens differ from other plants and trees. He will talk about the mistletoe, and say why it grows on other plants, often high up in oak trees on branches to which the wind could not possibly carry the seed. Finally, he will deal with evergreens in winter, show how they are suited to stand the winter gales, and how they are unaffected by heavy falls of snow that would have serious effects on ordinary deciduous trees which lose their leaves in autumn.
Teachers are advised to have specimens or illustrations of holly, spruce, and mistletoe to show their class.
