 'TNe Need the Nurse"
 "f thought I never would wakcn you" she said. 'I didn't dare call loud for fear Of waking the chl- dren. Can you get into something quickly anu so 10 your mother-in- laws room? We need the nurse badly until we can get Dr. Quin- Jan and another nurse here"
 You think, then" l began ten- tatvely as I sprang from the bod and rushed into a bathrobe, wooIen hose and slippers.
 q don't think - l know she retorted with a positive little nod of her head. And hurry as fast as you can. The nurse IS ready but Mother Graham insists upon getting up and helping, too. Shes lit dazed, I imagine, from waking np so suddenly. l tried hard to be quiet, but no hawk ever had ears 10 equal your mother-ip-law. l don't envy you your job. Id almost rather have mine"
 She hurried away down the cor Yidor to her daughterln-law room, and in another minute, with my overnight bag in one hand and my day wardrobe draped oyer the other arm, I was knocking softly Rt the door next to mine.
 The nurse opened the door, fully dressed except for her cap, which she was calmly adjusting. There was such competent resourceful- ness in her appearance that l felt a sudden thrill of thankfulness for SD wise and strong d helper in Leila's most wonderful yet terrible hour.
