APPEAL FROM AFRICA
August 9, 1948: Sir-We are regular readers of "The Listener,’ though the infrequent shipping to these parts means they are a few months old when we. get them. WNevertheless we think it one of the best magazines we read. To-day I was reading in the March 22-29 issue of the NZBS Music Booklet, the result of the offer of Alec Rowley; and of the other booklets distributed this — year by the. NZBS-"Musical Appreciation," by Ernest Jenner; "Rhythmic Movement and Music Appreciation,’ by Jean Hay, K. Newson, and W, Trussell, "Tales That Are Told,’ etc. Having sat under Ernest Jenner, and having taught with Jean Hay and Keith Newson, and now teaching my own children in the New Zealand Cortespondence Course, I'd be most interested and grateful to have these books if there are any spare ones about. My husband is teaching in a secondary school for African boys here; but the nearest European school is 300 miles by lorry. We ‘ate consequently dependent for things Educational on what we get from New Zealand. There may be none of these booklets to spare, but if there are I could put them to very good use here! . Yours sincerely,
(Mrs.)
MARGARET A.
