1YA Notes. "HIS LAST LEGS" R. E. A. KOHN has had many years’ experience in the manufacture of jewellery, watches, and clocks, and listeners will hear him this evening at 7.40, when he will give a talk on the time-keeping instruments. This will be the first of a series from this gentleman. Included in this evening’s programme is the rollicking Irish comedy, "His Last Legs," by W. B. Bernard. This play was first produced in 1839, and has always been very popular both with players and audiences. Under the direction of Mr. J. F.

The Studio Trio will also appear and ’cello solos will be given by Miss Molly Wright. Wellington Features. FOLLOWING the weekly talk to farmers by 4 representative of the Department of Agriculture, an excellent programme of a light popular nature will be given.
