is compelled by her father to disband
her "Fighting Demons" brigade of
girls, she determines to run away and
become Red Cross nurse. While in
flight that night, Sc detects one of the
officers acting suspiciously. She re-
nounces her intention of running
away and determines to fathom the
secret Of an hold house, into which
she sees the officer disappear. She
believes he is her sweetheart, Lieu
tenant Adair. She searched his apart
ment for proof and finds a document
that looks important. 1t proves to
be merely an advertisement for a
home furnishing company. But her
jealousy is aroused by thoughts of an
other sweetheart Again she sees him
enter the old building, but this time
she learns the truth-it is Lieutenant
Wilbur. And following him is Lieu
tenant Adair, who is caught by the
spies and made "a prisoner. While
Jackie, undetected, runs for assist
ance, the p,otteS, after imprisoning
the officer in -the~reller, complete a
devilish contrivance to blow up a
bridge and wreck a troop train. Jackie
warns the post and leads the rescue
party. They arrive just as the chief
conspiratory is closing the electric
switch to set of fthe Internal ma
chine, his accomplicese watching eag-
erly the indicator that shows the an.
proach of the doomed train. At this
moment Jackie and her soldiers ar
