powerful - or something like that"
Nobody paid much attention the
next day over the first rumors. They
were something to joke about. Long
wood, the rumors said, had COM
planned to the Commissioner. Its am
bulance, answering call to an acci-
dent at Westlawn Avenue and Kirby
Road, had found that passing ambu-
lance from Budd had stopped and
removed a patient and taken him to
Budd.
This was a clear violation of the
rules, which said Longwood was to
handle all emergency calls in this area.
1t was treated as joke - in the
admitting Office. Let's send them
corpse" said Jeffers. That's all they
would have gotten in the first place"
EvEN when word came down from
the Superintendent Office directing
Peter to write a full report on how it
happened, for submission to the Com
missioner of Hospitals. nobody took
it seriously. Peter sat down at type
writer and pecked out statement
which was almost flippant and very
strong. He was little provoked by
the business, and his anger shone
through the typewriter lines.
Everybody supposed that would be
the end of it, but it wasn't. The next
day Harry got an order to submit a
statement on his part in the violation
of the rules pertaining to ambulance

of the rules and unethical conduct
"Unethical!" said Zilman. "Ye
gods!'
Jeffers said, Somebody's crazy -
or l am!'
Peter just looked grim.
The hearing was held the next week,
at Budd. with Commissioner Baxter
presiding. Budd's superintendent gave
Peter some sound advice. which wasn't
taken. Say" he said. that you did

that'll be the end of it.
The hearing was supposed to be
private, but everybody knew just
what happened because the supers
secretary was there, taking notes.
Peter didn't say he was sorry and that
he didn't think Baxter, who could
reduce everything to artful simplicity,
nailed him very neatly.
do you say, Doctor, that this
man would not have survived long
enough to get to Longwood?"
81 don't know" said Peter. "How
could I?"
"If you please! III ask the ques-
tons! Then why did you not admins
ter temporary measures and await the
arrival of Longwood's ambulance"
81 thought he'd have better
chance if brought him here
6AxrER's brows went up. "You
think that only you could have done
this job?"
mo, | don't mean that. They're
undoubtedly as good as we are"
Then, by your own words. you
illegally took charge of this case be-
cause - gather - you wanted to do
this operation YOURSELF"
Peter snapped angrily. You're dis
torting everything l sayr
"Am l? You yourself admitted there
is no reason to suppose that the few
additional minutes it would take the
Longwood ambulance to arrive ="
Few! They might not have come
for twenty minutesr'
''Longwood's ambulances can reach
any point in the district within eleven
minutes" Baxter was nettled.
Sure - they can. But have they
ever been known to do it T. except
on test runs?'
Baxter was growing angrer 1t was
one of his proud claims that tests
showed the remarkable speed in reach
ing scenes of accidents The tests nev-
er considered that Number Three
might have to be walked up, wash and
dress before starting on the run. The
hearing closed with Baxter glowering
at the impudent, unrepentant in
tern, and stating that rules were made
for purpose, not to be broken lightly.
The hearing did not even touch
upon those few tense minutes in the
operating room when DR.. Peter Win
throp held a mans heart in his hands
and Jeffers was saying, mo pulse -
No pulse. That had no bearing on the
issue.
Peter was already packing when
word came that he was finished; he
knew it was coming A notice had been
pasted in the admitting room, signed
by DR.. Baxter and stating that here
after there would be no federation
of violations of the rules on hospital
boundaries. These violations, DR..
Baxter wrote, had become altogether
too numerous lately. and violators
hereafter would be summarily dis
missed, the Commissioner having al
ready been compelled to take one
stringent step" to correct this per
nicious laxity."
FErER WINTHROP slipped out so
quietly that all the carefully planned
pats on the back. the appropriate,
"a rotten, sinking break, Peter. old
fellow" we're not delivered. 1t hurt
Annabelle that he didn't even stop
by to speak to her. After all, while
there had been nothing definite be-

He was probably washed up as far as
another hospital job went. Oh, he had
plenty of promise. more in fact than

ords, why take on one who had been
dismissed for unethical conduct?

THE BADGE YOU SEE HERE is coveted en-
blem symbol of 20 years of loyal and
efficient service to Metropolitan's policy
holders, and to the communities in which
they live.
Today, more than 1,5OO active Metro
politan Life Insurance Company feld-men
are proud possessors of this badge.
Over 1000 members of the field organi
zation have been in the business from to
10 years; more than $500 enjoy 10 to IS
years of experiences; and over 1900 from
IS to 20 years. Fewer than one out of every
eight 6eld-men have served Metropolitan
policyholders less than two years.
These years of continued service have
an important bearing on the quality Of
advice and help which policyholders re-
ceive from Metropolitan representatives in
the United States and Canada.
All feld-men receive preliminary life in
surance instruction before they begin their
work of serving policyholders. Thousands
of feld-men regularly receive further in
struction in the many courses conducted by
the Company throughout the country.
During 1899, some 567 managers and
assistant managers attended special courses;
another 1893 assistant managers received
training in the field from the Company's

the agent often helps to prepare the claim
papers and to get the check promptly to the
beneficiary. Death claims we're paid on an
average of over 1000 policies per week in
1899.
In addition. every week in 1899, more
than $4,000 so-called transfers took place
occasioned by change of address or similar
causes In nearly every some agent
served the policyholder. In almost 1000
communities where Metropolitan nursing
service is available to Industrial policy
holders. it is usually the agent who brings
word of the policyhoder's need for it,
If you need assistance with any problems
connected with your life insurance. call in
your Metropolitan agent. He will gladly
consult with you, and help prepare and file
necessary papers. There is no reason for pay

and managers were studying for their "Char
tered Life Underwater" degree This is
awarded only to those who complete spe-
cited studies in the application of life in
technical phases of life insurance as its
relationship to problems of taxation and
inheritance. Additional thousands of field
men received instruction in other educa-
tional projects maintained by the Company
all with a view to assuring policyholders
the utmost benefit from their life insurance.
Thus does the Metropolitan agent, with
the cooperation of the Company, strive
constantly to increase his knowledge and to
keep abreast of the times
The services the agent renders are many
and varied. Helping the policyholder select
the kind of insurance best suited to his
needs and delivering the policy are only the
beginning of long series of services
Many policyholders pay their premiums
weekly, monthly, and the fed-man col
lects them.
When necessary, agents adjust insurance
plans to new personal or family situations.
Policies are checked to make sure that de-

The main reasons which voters
give for disappearing the Maxi in
vasion OF Scandinavia are that
'there is never any justification
for stealing" that big countries
should respect the rights Of small
Or nations" and that neither Nor
way nor Denmark had interfered
with Germany. Some voters called
the invasion absolutely unneces-
sary" and an example Of '.Hitler's
mad lust for power"
Those voters who, on the other
hand. think Germany was justi-
fled in invading the northern coun-
tries declare that the Allies forced
Germany into 1t with their block
ade, that the Allies would have
gone into Denmark and Norway
II Germany hadn't, and that the
invasion was justifisble from Ger
