' One School does this '
News of interesting and unusual work done by boys and girls
This afternoon's programme will give an example of original school activity as carried out in two schools, one in the East End of London and the other in the country.
A van recently paid a visit to an East London school where scholars have built and equipped in their confined play-ground a perfect working model of a railway with an engine capable of hauling five children. In addition to this they have, in their school garden, succeeded in rearing under most adverse conditions a wide range of plants. The records made will be played this afternoon and linked with narration.
The second school to be dealt with is in the southern counties. Among other activities it teaches its scholars the arts of dyeing and weaving. Some of these children, it is hoped, will be in the studio this afternoon to describe the work they do.

(The Undying One)
'Sometimes I amuse myself, not by making people believe, but by letting them believe, that I have lived from time immemorial.'
Script written by Jonquil Anthony. Additional material supplied by Lieut.-Commander Rupert T. Gould
Production by John Richmond
This is the first of a new series which will deal with a number of queer occurrences and personalities. The Comte de Saint-Germain, who first appeared in London in 1745, was certainly one of the great mysteries of his time. Claiming to be hundreds of years old, and speaking of famous historical personalities as though they were well known to him, he drifted through the contemporary scene in England and France--where he was an intimate of Louis XV and la Pompadour-marvelled at by all who observed him. He is well named the will o' the wisp of memoir writers, for no reference to him is found in any authentic state paper, yet Horace Walpole wrote of him: He sings, plays on the violin wonderfully, composes, is mad, and not very sensible. He is called an Italian, a Spaniard, a Pole, a somebody that married a great fortune in Mexico and ran away with her jewels to Constantinople, a priest, a fiddler. a vast nobleman '.
The Comte de Saint-Germain was said not only to possess the Elixir of Life. but to have the secret of removing flaws from diamonds. Who he actually was, and how he kept up his magnificent masquerade, nobody knows. Some associated him with Moses and others with the mysterious Muscovite adviser of the Dalai Lama.

' Tying a Lion up in Knots'
J. C. Walker

Presented by Sandy Macpherson at the BBC Theatre Organ
For many years the theme song has been with us. Long before the advent of the films we had it in our opera and musical shows. In the days of the old silent films the theme song was a vital part of the musical accompaniment provided, and when our screen images began to speak and sing, they carried the idea a step farther. Here is a little programme attempting to trace the origin and evolution of the theme song.
