Art in the Afternoon
RTS DIGEST, one session of which I heard the other day from 4YA, is conducted by Constance Sheen, and comes on the air at two o'clock. In the particular session I am _ speaking of, there was a good mixture of items dealing with a variety of the arts; but I éspecially enjoyed Alice Reid talking about her visit to last year’s Edinburgh Festival. We have been given a great deal of miscellaneous information about this eyent, both in the newspapers and magazines, and on the radio, Consequently Mrs. Reid was wise not to deal with subjects already well aired. Most interesting to Scottish listeners would be her vivid description of qa midnight review of troops at the Castleher picture of the pipes and kilts was one I shan’t soon forget. Likewise the Morality Play, which Mrs, Reid also described with an economical wealth of relevant detail. Many visitors went to Edinburgh. Mrs. Reid is one of the few who managed to return with her experiences in communicable form. Short of actually being there, such good travellers’ tales are our best enjoyment,
