By Elinore Cowan Stone CHAPTER 1 : Tran Dearborn entered Saint Vincent's as a student aurge with. out any one's having taken the trouble to warn her that, in a big hospital, the lowest form of hu- man life is a probationer Lower than the callowest of the i in- ternes-- although even Tran could sce that their assumption of jaun- ty sophistication was often but a thin cloak to hide panic and a devastating sense of bewilderment, When Tran's mother had chris- tened her "Tranquility," her hus- band had warned her that she was iniviting disaster. "And anyhow," he had said, "you don't suppose any one is go- ing to call her that, do you?" And, af course, no anc did. "Tranquility" seemed so prepos- terously out of keeping with ev- _ erythiing that was Tran Dearborn, Perhaps thgt was because her slight hody, with its restless dane- ing feet, and hands that would dartsine. quick gestures unless she held them tightly clasped, cemed te be driven by a nervous dynamo too powerful for e. More likely ib was gl ause of Het eyes. There wide, dack eyes of Fran's --=0 out of proporiion to her.small pale face, with the dusting of volden freckles over a high-bridg- cd nese thao might have been haughty if it had not been faintly funny---oftén gave her a resemb- lance to a_ startled fawn on the verge of fight J. That is, unless you them at of those times whell her sense of humor got the best of her most painstaking endeavers tu look gravely re- spectful while: the head nurse was explaining the house rules goverring probationers, for in- stalite. At such times Tran managed to keep her other features composed in an earnestly 'respectful look by biting her: cheeks hard-=but her one . eyes she never could control, even _ by opening them very wide! Of course people had not really called her "Tranquility" even in her early -school days at Miss Brand's of Virginia, or lated, af- ter her mother and father had died and Aunt Clara had thken her from one Continental schbol to an- other. All tha Tran knew that-« living to earn with her own hands, But it was not until she entered the training school at Saint, Vin- eénl's that people really began to canvass the delightful possibilities for parody presented by her given name. ~ Emergency One day, during her first few weeks at the hospital, she was tak- en with a group of other student nurses on a demonstration tour of some of the less exciting wards.

Serge: any? 2 _ please! them past the open door of the "Emergency reception room at the very woinent when a poliec ambu- lance clanged up and stopped out- side; and two uniforined figures hurried in, supporting between then a limp, bleeding man. The resc of Tran's group passed demurely on, herded by an older nurse But not Tran. This that was happening in Em- srgency was the kind of thing she Lad hoped she wag comgng to the hospital to learn about. Yet up to date she had not had an opportun- ity to learn about much of any- thing except unexciting matters like the anatomy of the circulatory system, and how to make beds-- and above all; how not to address one's superiors i Among othet-things -- as Tran -had dis- covered after several dishearten- ing experiences--*'probes," as the probationers were vulgarly called, did not make brash suggestions to - their' betters unless asked for Now, ws Tran stood entranced with curiosity, some one else came along the corridor and halted out- side © the door of Emergency, Glancing over her sheulder, Tran saw a tall, handsome man. whose spotless white linen emphasized his look of glowing cleanliness and vitality and self-confidence; "and whose arrogant nose and deep-set blue eyes. suggested a native im- patience not teo firmly leashed. Tran's heart missed a beat as spe recognized him. Only the day before some one had pointed Dr. Sarcent out- to her as the most brilliant sugreon --- and the most gosh-awinul man to work under-- in the whole hospital. 1t was hid | "gosh-awfulness that had. won for him the aiekname of "Top clipped for convenience to "Top Sarge." . To make a mistake vhen you were helping him was as niuch as your uniform was worth. ... To be personally requested to assist him at an operation was the equivalent of a royal command. That was the mark Tran had set herself to shoot at. Now the dark, friendly young interne on-duty in Pages "glanced. up from the figur¢®the officers had placed on the table- and -called, "Oh, Dr. Sargent, If you have a minute, J'd. appreciate some advice, sir." Wouldn't 1 Do! The tall white-clad figure went into the room. After a hasty glance up and down the corridor, Tran recklessly slid in after him. The two men bent over, study- ing the angry red hole in the bare patch the interne had exposed on the patient's right shoulder. Tran, fascinated beyond thought of cau- tion, eased herself closer, until her breath was.almost upon the backs of their necks. "Pretty deep, shouldn't you say, sie?" the interne suggested defer- entially. "I think I'l need a probe." "A probe, by all means," Dr. Sargent agreed. Tran could hardly believe her cars. "Probes," she had been told, never -got within a mile of operations--much less to help with them: | Yet the Emergency interne had undoubtedly said that a "probe" was needed; and the ter- rifying "Top Sarge" had agreed with him. It scemed providential that she was on the spot. Tran cleared her throat so: sharply that they both jumped and turned, [frowning at 'her. "Perhaps," she. said -breathless- ly, "perhaps--wouldn't 1 do? I'm one--a 'probe', I mean, she hur- "ried on-=--as if her gray dress and voluminous apron were not suffi cient advertisement of her low estate. ¢ The young interne's face under- went a sort of convulsion; he turned his back and made a dis- concerting noise that sounded like a cross hetween w sneeze; a sob, -and a-smothered-prayer,---- ---- The terrible "Top Sarge" just stood, looking, But something in the way he looked gave the effect of an amazed Qlympian surveying from the heights a particularly in. significant worm, - Tran's heart began to_sink. She couldn't be mistaken. He had de- finitely, said, "A probe, by' all means," Later, of course, she' was to learn that when a surgeon asks for a "probe" the chances are at least one to a billion billion that he doda not mean a i but a surgical instrument used for extracting embedded solids . Now she only understood that something was terribly wrong. Just Looking Nevertheless, she persisted, mean--well, you did say needed a-'probe', didn't you?" "And even so," Top Sarge spoke with a chilling politeness, "may I ask what you happen to be doing in here?" * Tran put her hands into the pockets of her uniferm to lecp. therm from shaking. "1 det Beit a TENET she managed to get gut. "I"--desper-, you note--*'a hospital is such an inter. esting 'place--don't you think?" Then. -because the more fright- ened che was, the more irresist- ibly che wanted to laugh -- she took her cheeks hard hetween her teeth; but her traitor eyes got big- ger and darker and shinier in her pale l'ttle face. . "So interesting," he said, his own cyes like remote blue ice, "that if you're quite threugh sight-reeing here, 1 should appre- ciiite your going to do your look- ing elsewhere." . By Name Of "Tranquility" After-a quivering instant, Tran . went, with what dignity she could muster. ' "And who, Benchley," Dr. Sar- want demanded, "would that feath- er-brain be?" "Her given name-- believe it or not--is Tranquility-- Tranquility Dearborn," he said. "But she's more popularly Jnown as 'Util-. ity'? "And what, in Seeren's name, is she doing in this hospital--or + any other, for that matter?" "Well--as her nickname rather neatly _implies--just about any- thing that nobody clse wants to do -- heaven help her!" 'Whether = Heaven "heard: his prayer or not, not many minutes had elapsed before Tran was to need the benefit of prayer. (To Be Continued) | Household Pests: .

A Simple Dressing- - Baked fish or steamed is much better for the digestion than: the fried, and serving -this- way calls for a dressing: dressing: 1 cup crjeker or bread crumbs 1 tablespoon salt 1 teaspoon chopped onion 1 teaspoon chopped parsley 1/8 teaspoon pepper | 2 tablespoons butter. Co, Clean, wipe and - dry fish. Rub with salt. Fill cavity with stuffing, then sew cavity, rub all over with little flour. Plafe in hot oven to bake, If steaming, prepare in -the same manner. For those who find it difficult to obtain fresh fish, do not think un- kindly of 'canned fish, goods to-day are Under: very rigid supervision and are thus prepared in a very- scientific manner.
