Helen Gipps , who owns and directs the Bexhill School of Music, has given a great many piano recitals in this country and in America, and has frequently broadcast.
She has handed the musical tradition down to her own family, all of her three children having taken up musical careers. Her son, Bryan, whom she will accompany this morning, won a violin scholarship at the Royal College of Music at the age. of seventeen. He has been in Julius Harrison 's Orchestra at Hastings, leader of the Oxford New Theatre Orchestra, Musical Director of the Theatre Royal, Brighton, and is now leader of the Folkestone Municipal Orchestra.
When he married the brilliant violinist, Molly Harms , a short time ago, his mother said to him: You ought to have married a pianist
' I've got my pianist', he replied proudly, patting her on the shoulder.

Prince Andrew has proposed to Natasha Rostov, and been accepted. But Prince Andrew's old father, Prince Bolkonsky, refuses to consent to the marriage unless Prince Andrew postpones it for a year and goes abroad. Natasha does not find the long waiting easy, and does not look forward to meeting her 'in-laws', the stern old Prince Bolkonsky and his daughter Marya.

' St. Patrick'
HUGH CHESTERMAN
This afternoon you will hear about a great and good man who devoted nearly all, his life to spreading the Gospel among the Irish people.
It was as a result of being captured in* a raid while still a youth, and carried over to Ireland that Saint Patrick first saw the Irish people, and it was also as a result of this experience that he decided, after his escape, to return to Ireland.
The broadcast will tell you about the wild Irish of those times, and their heathen beliefs, and about some of Saint Patrick's adventures in the course of his mission of conversion.

The St. Paul's Cathedral Choir will be augmented for the occasion by the Cathedral special-service choir, and there will be an orchestra to accompany the singing.
