Ann introduced the girls to DR..
Laird as they came into the room
and grouped about the fireplace.
And this young lady" said DR..
Bob finally as he motioned to lingo,
"is Miss Jessica. She will act as
your guide this afternoon and when
you have examined every nook and
corner of our hospital and admired
Betsy's new teeth and Casey'S pink
hair and made Winnie laugh, you
will find tea waiting for you before
the fire."
They followed lingo down the
hall to the nursery. The winter
sun, streaming through the window,
fell across Casey's bright head as he
sat, sober and silent, on stool in
the center of the floor, the dingy
plush dog in his arms.
This is Casey" lingo informed
her audience. And that is Betsy
standing in her crib. We have 10
children at the present time. There
are II here and four in the ward,
and two on the sun porch
Eighteen children" exclaimed
Ann WeStmore tragically. Can you

Ann jerked her arm away and

pretty faces half obscured in the
haze of cigaret smoke.
Ann stood, slender and lovely,
before the fireplace. lingo busted
herself with the tea service, but
stopped short and looked up as Ann
adopted a dramatic pose, point
ing up at the painting of Eliza
beth Dey above the mantel.
MY predecessor, darlings," she
laughed as she waved her arm dra-
matically, a cigaret between her
fingers. Il still hear of her beauty,
her sweetness, her charm, and all
those marvellous qualities.
But wait! John goes to south
ern France for the season. So does
Ann! And I'll wager he'll have
nearly forgotten about his lovely
Lizbeth when he comes back. Oh,
girls, what little Ann isn't going
to do with all those weeks in SUM-
ny France by the Mediterranean
sea-"
The girls laughed and Ann
Strolled back and forth across the
room, her hand on a slender hip,
the cigaret between her red lips.
Hes been the most difficult man
I have ever known. He just treats
me like he treats every one else
but it won't be of Lizbeth he will
be talking when the season is over.
II have really waited a decent
length of time, don't you think?
Two long years, nearly three, and
in the meantime I have turned
down Bobby and Cecil. But it won't
be long now"
She stopped short as DR.. Laird
came in.
