Tynwald Day
N July 5, which, as all Manxmenv know, is Tynwald Day, Mr. T. B. Corkill will speak from 2YA. about the ancient Commemoration Day of the people of the Isle of Man. He will go ov to tell of Tynwald itself-the legislative assembly which for about a thousand years has made the laws of that self-governing community. The musical portion of the hour’s programme will consist almost entirely of Manx national music, selected from a wealth of folk songs and music, which, still remembered forty or fifty years ago by a few of the older peopie of the island, was recorded just in time to save it,from being quite forgotten. Several of these selections will be given from gramophone recordings of the choir of the London Manx Society. Others will be rendered by local vocalists.
