LONG in June and July many young women are turned out of the training- hospitals full-fledged nurses. They scatter over the cities and to the uttermost ends of the earth, Several of them from different hospitals have taken the flat across the hall from ours. We send in the morning paper and the jelly-mould and the can-opener, so that if we ever need free nursing weccan get it. They are a jolly lot of girls, and when they begin relating experiences we promptly drop our work and listen, They don’t mind. Mostly the conversation comes round to pa- tients who have fallen in love with them. There is one gay little body who has either never run through the gamut of hospital emotions or who sells her stories direct. Atal events she never relates personal adventures. We commented upon this fact one day through a crack in the door. When the excitement had subsided she owned up to having had a share in a romance oF so.
