Aware of the great popularity of the
eminent conductor's broadcasts, NEC
officials prevailed upon him to lead
the orchestra in an eleventh radio
programme. The final programme
will consist entirely of the works of

Identifying Evergreen Trees:
Explained In Botanical
Notes For 'March
There is supreme comfort in the
knowledge that Spring is teeny
close at hand. Everyone, (even those
who appear to be quite indifferent to
the miracles of plant life, and those
jaundice -eyed cynics, much against
their will is thrilled by this thought.
Those who love plants experience
that ecstacy of delight every Spring
when renewing that tender sympathy
which binds them to the very early
flowers. They know mete well that
even under the snow of the woodland
floor the unfortunately named but
delicate liverwort (preferably, but not
so well -know -n as squirrel cup) is
slowly, but surely uncurling her
young stems and leaves wrapped in
fuzzy but fashionable furs; and that
under the influence of the warming
sun she will soon push her way
theough the russet of last year's
leaves and paint them with resplen-
dent splashes of blue lavender, pur-
le, pink and white.
Yes! these spring flowers will con-
tinue to bloom with intoxicating
sweetness; the spring birds will con-
tinue to trill with ecstacy; the spring
sun will continue to lavish his same
old, healthful largess in spite of wars;
rumours of wars, dictators and other
what-nots. Yes! indeed there is com-
fort for all.
With the first glimpse of these
dainty squirrel cups each spring
comes the same dear, sweet thrill; as
some people will perhaps have ex-
perienced when meeting an old sweet-
heart!
Yes! March certainly has her
charms. Even when her shouting,
boisterous winds. flog the countryside
and wild grey clouds stampede across
the pale blue,
"Trees can smile in light at the
sinking sun
Just as A storm comes, as a girl
would look
On a departing lover most serene."
Especially during the - winter
months d o evergreens exemplify
Browning's verse, in that they stand
serene and smile in faee of the bel-
lowing blast; and a sterner opposition
-the threat of extermination, They
are however, are ancient family with
tradition; therefore they will only
bow to the, inevitable after a grim
struggle with those parvenus t h e
broad keyed trees.
Amongst other conifers will be no-
ticed the graceful spires of the true
firs silhouetted in bold relief against
the pale cold March sky.
Of them all the balsam fir is the
most famous, as it is the typical
Christmas Tree, and deservingly So
when it is known that upon drying it
does tnot litter the floor -rug with
leaves. The spruce, on the other
hand is not so thoughtful when it
causes the harmony of Christmas
week to be broken by the cacophony
of the carpet sweeper! Housewives
therefore take good care that a bal-
sam fir is selected for the Yuletide
revels.
The balsam fir is identified by its
two -ranked, pale -lined leaves, which
are lustrous and dark green above,
about one -inch long, flat (not four-
sided as are those of most. of the
spruces) grooved and blunt or same:
