He had trouble, t keeping with brilliant | DR. STEPHEN SARGENT --head surgeon. Dr, Sargent's problem was something else again, Last week: Dr, Sargent visits Miss Armstrong, inquires about Tran and then tells the head nurse that he 'has learned something. which might interest her. VHAPTER VIII Tran Gets Her Cap Tran never knew in how large a measure she was indebted to the terrible Top Sarge for the pert, frilled cap that.stamped her "as a full-fledged student nurse. he neyer knew that after telling -tne story of that evening in Emer- . gency, he had said, "Armstrong, that girl has something that five. out of every six nurses lackl In- -terne trouble or not, she has the | nursing touch." Tran only knew that that cap was the one thing she most want- Cit. -Yet even during the ceremdny | that 'conferred it- upon her she barely: missed disgracing herself» . It was' unfortunate-in the first place that Miss Armstrong had chosen Miss Miller to j viform the capping ceremony on -this. occa- 'sion. There was something about * "the icicle's" poised, finished per- fection that invariably made Tran feel hopelessly raw and crude, and consequently tightened her de- fense mechanism to the danger point. 'It was doubly unfortunate that "young. Df." Benchley should have been among those of the medical stafl' who. attended the exercises; because, again, there was .some- thing: about the impudently dane- ing eyes in his lean, smiling face that invariably put Tran. off her stride, The fact that, just as Miss Miller. turned toward her, .cap in hand, his eyes were upon her, im- pishly' amused in a-- deceptively décorous face, made her suddenly catch her 'cheeks between her. « teeth to_keep her own eyes from flooding--net with untimely laugh- KEEPS OUTSIDE CLOSETS Clean And HERE'S no risk of offensive ; A outhouse odors when you use Gillett's, Pure Flake Lye regu-- contents of closet--once a week.' {There's no need: to remove con- tents--Gillett's does it for you.

Now Tran saw his cobalt yi eyes settle upon her with a kind of detached fury that seemed to say, 'Good Lord! As if this weren't awful enough al- ready, here's this emotional little Oh, well, I warned feather-brain about to make a scene!" ! As if by -magie Tran's tears dried, and her spine stiffened. "Not this time!" she shot at him mentally. "I wouldn't give. you that satisfaction," She lifted her head, swept him with a blandly impersonal glance that would have done credit to Miss Miller, herself, and the cher- ished cap perched jauntily on her place. "Good" Resolution" Rally "After the 'gapping exercises, Tran*and Beula Tagg--who could not believe yet that her cap was actually hers, but kept patting it with cautious fingers--held a "good resolutions" rally . . , . For not even accepted student nurses always survived the grilling three years of trainipg = that entitled them to wear the coveted white linen" uniforms. There were still "misfits" to be weeded out. 4 . Beula vowed passionately that she would not eat between meals," and that she wauld- exercise every |. night. Tran swore that she would never giggle again, that she would not thrust herself unnecessarily. upon the attention of her superiors, 'or dash around asking untimely questions; and. privately, that she would shun the pernicious influ- ence' of Dr. Bob Benchley as if "he were the plague. She would not even stop for a few stolen words with him in the corridor, or to snafch a puff from his cigarette behind a convenient screen; she would never, never again _ dance with him to the music of a hurdy- : gurdy- in the street outside, as she had recklessly dolie when they had met by accident in the deserted service room of G-6 one fragrant May morning. ! - The occasion of that particular crime had been one that seemed to call for a celebration, because Bob 'had just been permitted to perform his first operation, under - the sponsorship of Dr. Sargent. It might easily have been his last at Saint Vincent, for a bevy of trus- tees, convoyed by Miss Armstrong and the chief of staff, had all but walked in upon them in the midst of a particularly exuberant rou- tine of improvised steps. - The- girls solemnly registered their oaths over an opén volume of the Materia Medica, and felt so uplifted thereafter that as a re- ward of virtue, Beula ate two helpings of everything for dinner. + «+ After all, a girl must keep up her strength, . Trgn slipped badly almost - at once. When Miss Philbin came in a few. minutes late for demonstra. tion class the day after the cdp- ping, it was to find. the class in" paroxysms of mirth while Tran-- as nurse--carried on; in Miss, Phil. bin's own best manner, a 'Rabelai- sian, ventriloquial' conversation with the demonstration dummy as concerning the stolid, pink-cheeked Griselda's most. inti- mate symptoms. 7 - But although Miss Philbin was faintly, pink. when she finally, ens tered the room, she plunged brisk- dy, without comment, into the les- son. . . , Tran sometifies, thought: that Miss Philbin's discreet failure: -.to hear br 'see a great deal that happened made: the 'world: ai much pleasanter place than it might have. beep. * .But 85 far as young Dr. Bench- ley. went, Tran sheathed herself in ice. When she met kim in the eot- the briefest of nods that she was bent on a mission of life and . death importance, and had no time for idle dalliance, + "Once 'he did run her down in laughing any more. young face was pale; and the light ed there was out of the room. He closed the door and advane- ed sternly upon her, "Now, I've. had enough- of this nonsense," "he began. "When you first" came here, I thought -you 'were the sweetest, tenderest 'thing 1 had ever seen, Agility. What, in God's name, are,you trying to 'do to yourself? _If you keep on this way, what you're going to turn into is. something -about as appealing as--well; as the perfect 'icicle, Miss Miller, for instance. « ++ Darling, you' weren't meant for this kind 'of thing. You--" Tran pulled the lever of the autoclave and faced him belliger- ently. "Now you look here, Bob Bench- ley," she cut in. "I've got my: liv- ing to make in this world, and--" "But that's. just it--you haven't. Honey, I've never told you yet what a darned lucky girl you are. I've got enough money for both of us. Then suddenly he not lean, was His in his dark eyes was not impudent but pleading. "Anyhow," he rushed on, "I have plenty to last a few ybars-- till T get my big chance, . . . Oh, Tran, 1 could go places if 1 had you to stick -around and root for me. " "And I suppose you think," Tran broke in--stonily, to give the lie to the melting at_her heart-- "that you're the only one around who wants to go places? Well, I'm ambitious, too. Some day I'm go- 'ing to--" "Sure! You don't have to tell me. Spme day you're going to be top nurse for Old Sarge--Ilike the perfect Miller, That's what every apron in this hospital prays for. every night on bended knees. As if he'd ever give any of you a sec- ond look so long as Miller's around 'with that angel face of hers. He would sell his soul for her if he didn't know she's a human glaci- _ er." "You aren't fair to her," Tran flashed; and surprisingly found herself believing it. "A nurse can't afford to be emotional. Too many people depend on her keep. ing her head," - 5. "All right," he flung out at her. "Go ahead and turn yourself into another starched apron with anti- septic fluid in your veins, and see where it géts you with Top Sarge." When she knew that Bob had really gone, Tran sat down stiffly, ker fingers holding to the edie of the chair scat. . . .'Good thing he had gone, though. If he had stay- ed a minute "longer, she might have told Mim the one thing she never meant anyone to find out. It was that she knew now that she hag dedicated herself, like a priest. cd to a higher, sterner destiny til stitking around and rooting any young interne in the orld. . The reason for this lay in some- "thing that had happened only that morning, .

So out of the Immense welter of pictorfal material, romantic, dra- matic, beautiful and historic, The Toronto Star began to amass a rare collection of royal photo- graphs. The Canadian National Exhibl- tion presented Itselt as. the logical occasion for the first great show- dog. So The Toronto Star secured the theatre In the old government building (now the Natlonal Indus- tries building) and began to look thing. It- found thousands and color film. It belonged to dozens of different sources, Some of It Canadian, some from the United States, some professional, non-professional.

CHAMBERS CANNING THAT IS DIFFERENT . .Each year every homemaker in making the inventory of the fruit, vegetable and pickle store room, usually has about the same supply appealing to her own household for its own individual needs. How- ever, who is there amongst us who does not delight jn having or try- ing something. just a little fliffer. - ent by way of a variety? 'he first three recipes, which I am offering you this week origin- ated in France where; 'Potted' Jams" are a necessity rather than a variety. The yellow tomato one came fromyour "neighbors. to the * South of us" 'who do nian: inter- esting things with the yellow to. mato, which is altogether too un. common in our country. There is- nothing which "excels them in. beauty, offering you as they do their lovely translucent clumps of amber. 7 ) BEETROOT JAM Boil the beets in their¥king un- tii they are quitcstender, and of course, the younger the better. When cooked, rub off the skins; put the beetroot through the food chopper 'with the "large knife. Weigh them; place in an earthen- ware container with an equal am- ount of sugar; leaving all night. Next day place in' the preserving kettle, pouring on just enough wa- ter to cover the bottom, This will keep the jam from sticking. Bring quickly to the boil, stirring all the time. Skim. Boil steadily for 45 minutes. Add the rind and juice' _ (strained) of a lemon for cach two pounds of beets. Boil again for ten minutes. If you wish, you may remove ' the lemon rinds but "many prefer to leave them in. I- find it quite satisfactory to put rinds through the food chopper. Pot the jam, which is a very beau- tiful color and spreads well on™ -bread.. You could not find anys' thing more healthful for family _use and school luncheons. MELON JAM Choose melons which are almost 'ripe but not overly ripe. Peel, re- move the seeds, cut up the pulp Weigh the melon and for every 1 lb. of melon allow 1% Ib. of sugar and four tablespoons of water. Put sugar and water together into - preserving kettle, bring to the boil, add the. melon and. . boil steadily [until the syrup answers the usual test for jelly. A drop or two of vegetable coloring makes a prettier yellow in color. This is a delicious jelly for tarts -and is very economical. po YELLOW TOMATO PRESERVES Scald the tomatoes, remove the skins by placing in cold water ifr the usual.way. Weigh; to every 6b - S a] xT pounds of tomatoes use 4 pounds : of sugar. Wabh two lemons and slice very thin, Place in an earth- enware container putting altern- ate layers of tomatoes, sugar. and - lemons, Let stand all night, when the sugar should be dissolved. Cook over a low fire until fruit is quite clear, Place in jars 'and seal. : ; Here is a real recipe from Grandmother's treasured chest of recipe secrets: abbey ROSE:LEAF JELLY Pick the roses in early morning, 'They should be well opened but not in full bloom.

Shopping tips for limes are few. Ordinarily, good limes are heavy fer their size. That indicates good juice content. Decay may appear as a mold or as a soft discolored place on the stem end. Brown discolorations of: the skin may or may not affect the fruit inside. Lemons that have a fine-testur- i ed 8kin and are heavy for their size are generally of better .qdal- ity. <_than coarse-skinned light- weight fruit. Decay, as in limes, appears as a mold or as a soft dis. colored spot at the stem end.
