Everyone must have a holiday, and C. H. Middleton is no exception to this rule. His place on Sunday afternoons will be taken for the next twelve weeks by a varied selection of broadcasters, who will talk about some of the things that they have seen in other people's gardens. The talks will not be technical, but will be planned to give hints and ideas on garden planning, design, plant arrangement, and so on.

Alexander Woollcott
(From America)
One of America's 'ace' broadcasters, renowned for the easy and informal way with which he talks to American audiences on things as they occur to him, Alexander Woollcott is giving tonight the first of a series of six broadcasts to British listeners. He has been heard on British radio twice during the last few months, once on Boxing Day when he gave a talk on Stephen Foster, the composer of 'Swanee River', and on Wednesday last when he gave an illustrated talk on Irving Berlin. Further details about him will be found on page 6.
His talks will be informal, and will consist of a weekly commentary on things that have recently interested him in the United States.
