I didn't think I'd catch a wink, but by and oy l dozed off. It was a fatal sleep for me The next morning the patients sister told me about the snoring.
 James could not rest at all,' she said; I heard you in the next room.
 Before night was looking for another job. Of course I did not have to give up nursing entirely, but the hard cases, where I am required to keep awake every second. are open to me. All those soft snaps that give you chance to sleep half the night are beyond the reach of the snoring nurse"
