1T was a prematurely warm
night. Janet sat at her desk by
the elevator, her slim fingers
adding last-minute entries to the
stack Of hospital charts before
her.
DR.. Eynon lit his pipe and
watched her a moment in 81
lence. Suddenly he spoke
You take your nursing quite
seriously, don't you, Miss Har-
ris?"
4 Go when I'm on duty, Dr..
Eynon."
Some impulse prompted her
to 60 on, though she knew it
sounded impertinent. "You take

don't you?'
He looked surprised, but not
offended. Before answering he
ran his large hand through his
thick sandy hair. eyes, l guess
I do. You see, it means a great

He lit several matches and drew
slowly on his pipe, which finally
caught again. ''You see, Miss

For the first time he looked
directly into her eyes. They were
hardly aware of it, a moment
later, when the elevator stopped

Janet stared uncertainty at the
two men beside her desk
Cliff Bronson in a freshly
starched intern's jacket, his steth-
oscope dangling professionally
from his pocket. His eyes were
puzzled and little hurt as though
discovering her talking with DR..
Eynon was like catching her in a
deception. She wondered sud-

Only that afternoon she had told
him that Eynon was hardly aware
of her existence.
She'd have to explain that this
was the first time, she decided.
It was the only way she could
dispel that jealous light in Cliffs
eyes. Then she caught herself
up mentally. She wasn't en-
gagged to Cliff; she really owed
him no explanations of her con-
duct.
DR.. Eynon was still fooling with
his pipe. He seemed completely
unaware of any tension in the
atmosphere.

into a welcoming grin.
