Radio is taking the child off mother's lap and putting it to sleep with a bedtime story. Throughout the country, says an American oxchange, men and women, who love children and de- vote most of their time to entertalhment and development of the youngsters, are being featured in the programmes of the broadcast- ing stations. Practically every station has its children's hour some time between 6 and 8 in the evening, when the little boy or girl is tired and cross and sleepy and the journey into dreamland is begun with a short fantastic tale.
