He noted at once that this was
going to be a delicate operation.
1t would take all of his surgical
science to accomplish 1t success
fully. "A chance in a thousand for
success" he guessed mentally. He'd
take that chance!
His skillful fingers moved with
sure precision. He knew what he

Morrison shook his head. 'I'm in

He bent over the young doctors

limp arm to take his pulse.
His thoughts were already with
Sylvia, composing the speech he
would make to explain his having

to go.
"I'll tell her, DOCTOR" she said
crisply, ito come back tomorrow. n
Morrison glanced at his patients

by MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

COCIAL work has a definite APP
- peal FOR TIE modern girl. It
calls snto being the maternal in
stincts which lie 50 near the sur
face Of every woman's heart.
There IS great opportunity in this
field. The need for workers was
never more acute. But the girl IS
unwise to rush thougrtlessly into
It without weighing her fitness for
the task. Social workers, when
they are effective, possess certain
qualifications which are seldom
learned in training schools but are
instead the gifts Of Heaven.
Patience, ingenuity, cheerfulness
and the kind Of sympathy and IN
Outstanding that is tempered with
practice. sense.
Nothing is so dreadful as a per-
son working among the poor and
sick who does not have a knowl-
edge OF the needs Of the human
heart nor realize the fatal weak
ness Of mOrtals.
What happens to the worker her
self is often tragic. One Of two
things is likely to occur. Either
she is so moved by the sorrow,
pain and -ljustice she sees that
her point Of view becomes warped
ard she ends up as a fanatic, or
che builds up a resistance within
herself to the pressure of all the
outside woe which may change her
into a cold hard person unfit to
deal with suffering humanity. ShN
is dangerously apt to turn out a
cynic or a sentimentalist.
A divine sixth sense is needed
One must have the pentration to
see beneath the exterior Of misery
sodden men and women and to
search out the truth behind the
barrier Of deceits built up by the
unworthy and the irreclaimable.

Britain openly is advocating
supporting the League coven-
ant to the limit, abruptly call
ing any bluff which may have
lain hidden in the warnings
from Rome that coil sanctions
mean war. "
After an admittedly ill-ad-
vised interlude in which she
toyed with rewarding Italy
for warning against Ethiopia,
Britain today suddenly turned
about face and went the limit
the other way. Her attitude
now is as firm and martial as
that which Premier Mussolini
has shown.
eff oil sanctions mean war,
let war come, is in effect the
reply Italy is getting today.
Britain will lead this war,
if assured of immediate mill
tary support from other Medi-
terranean powers.
In suggesting this sensational
step, Britain pointed out no other
Mediterranean powers have taken
practical defense steps such as
has Britain. Britain has maSSed
her greatest battleShips and fight
ing planes in the troubled area.
RegainS Prestige
The British move was seen as
an attempt to assemble a Medit-
erranean Gordon of bayonets and
warShips as a police committee
for the League.
This startling British move, in
which the British Lion defies the
several.months-old threat of q
European war, was made in a
bold attempt to regain the pres
tige lost in the sad collapse OF
the Hoare-L Laval peace proposals
to reward Italy for aggression in
Africa.
