A Radio Dedication
The following inscription in Latin has been placed on the wall in the main entrance hall to the new 8.8. C. headquarters. Freely translated, it reads: — “TO ALMIGHTY GOD, “The first Governors of this institution dedicate this Temple of the Arts and of the Muses under the first directorship of John Reith, Knight, praying for Divine help that a good sowing may have a good harvest and that everything impure and hostile may be banished from this building and that whatsoever things are sincere and beautiful and of good report and lovable, the people, inclining its ear to these things with a contentment of mind, may follow them in the path of virtue and wisdom.”
