' NEVER AGAIN \ ; ’ How easily. will you forget and for- give if some man demolished your home, killed your son and husband and laid waste , your home town and most of your country? Promptly you may Answer, I shall never forget or forgive, and you may be jirm,in your conviction that what you say d all question. Time, though, as you have heard it said, cures all things, but it does not cure all things in some people. Of the many whe? say, just as you said, a fairly large pereentage of them, after time has had its is true beyc ‘ameliorating effect on them, will, be dis- | posed to forgive if not to forget. But how it possible that anybody ive or forget, if the man who once car for; destroyed your home and killed your son and husband and laid waste your home | own, returns and does the same things | over again? Thai man is Germany, whose utter dis- humanity has unfolded itself wice in years. Despite that horrible act, there are some people in the United States ever now who are talking of an ‘y peace and who will be far more blat- int after the collapse of Germany. Those people are pacifists and appeas- » whe gre coptent to enjoy the blessings egard of f freedom, forwBich thousands of Ameri- ans-have bled’ aid other thousands have diéd, : aie “e} in the United States, will have a , when the war is over, to muzzle holier-than-thou folks.

Hugh had not been in the | office when she had telephoned, j,and so she had had to leave a message. 5 She drove to the station, parked her little car and hurried on to the platform, just as she heard the train entering the cut a mile above | the town. Cooper came swiftly to | meet her, and a moment later Hugh leaped out of his car and game hurrying to her across the | platform, puzzled and frowning. | “Hi, what’s all this?” he de- | manded, taking in the packed bag in Cooper’s hand and the ticket in bea talent “Running out on me, eh?” “I have to go away for a few days, darling—on hospital busi- ness,” she told him, her heart sinking a little as the train thun- dered closer. “I can’t tell you about it now. If it works out— wrong—” Her voice broke a little and Hugh caught her close and vested his check against hers. “Want me to go along, sweet?” he asked her quickly. “Of course,” she told him in- stantly, “I always want you to go along anywhere I go, but this time you mustn't darling. You’ve got a job here, and I’ve got a job, for.a little while, si where else. This is Dr. Blak@’s job, dearest.” Hus# looked down at her, his face set, “There are times when I could find it in my heart not to be over- ly fond of Dr. Blake,” he ad- mitted, as the train was sliding to its brief, almost momentary halt. “But I’m crazily in love with Mrs. Hugh Prather. Suppose Dr, Blake could keep her reminded of that?” “It's a fact Dr. Blake will never forget--nor will Mrs. Prather,” she told him. Then she kissed him hard and pulled away from his arms that let her go so reluctantly as the whitecoated Pullman por- ter helped her up the steps. She paused there, as the train began to move, and looked back at him, and there were tears in her eyes, though she smiled and waved to him. In Atlanta, she reached the air- port a few minutes before the big plane was to take off. And almost before the powerful liner had lifted from the runway, Mere: put everything out of her mind but the thought of River Gap, and what it would mean to the town and its people, should poor Jerry Butler p. to be the source of this evil, mys- teriang mally that had already takea one life and stood an ex» cellent chance of taking more. She shivered at the thought of an epidemie and how swiftly it might spread, with none of the doctors knowing enough about it to be able to combat it effectively. HEN .she stepped from the plare in Washington, and looked about her what con- fused by the crowd: the noise, a spruce young licutenant with the familiar staff and Serpent in- signia of the Medical Corps sa- luted her smartly and said pleas antly; .“Dr. Meredith Blake, River,Gap?” 4 Surprised, Meredith him, and’said quickly, “Yes, how, did u know?” . The young man smiled, and said, “Oh, Majo: Stephenson had a tong distance call from your Dr. Nich- ols last night, and was given an inch-by-inch description of you, which, taken in connection with the time of the arrival of your plane, made it not too difficult for ae ; that ail this must tean that het tins a is must mean i mission was considered of extreme {78° 34, killed behind importance; which meant, also, |OM¢ of his own men, eat the San eee to River Gap was Torey — Edison’s “Vitaseope,” also great itely devel into ‘The car raced from the airport | moving ita ape to town, and’ a maze of : i streets that Meredith did not re- [Privately exhibited. on. te fie impressive 1915 — Official opening yu the Potomac. 4 Lieutenant Evans guided her up the steps, along a wide, cool cor- ridor eventually to a door, peace be ntned pad eee ee {+ 1939—The C. | O. fined some le paused a moment and then op- | ¢937.999 in Philadelphia Federal cruisers and damage % ened! the door.

A man who might have been blood broth- er, she decided in that first instant of meeting, to Jonathan Blake and Dr. Nichols, a man whose tailored army uniform fitted his tall, rather spare body a trifle loosely, as though he had lost weight since it had been fitted, a man whose eyes were tired, whose lean, brown face was almost haggard, but who greeted her with a warm, friendly smile and a firm hand- shake, as he motioned her to a ehair. i “I suppose I should apologize for having you rushed straight here from the airport, Dr. Blake.” he said, and his tone was wom j and genial, but very tired. “It was simply that Dr. Nichols impressed upon me the tremendous impor- tance of your mission: And by tne way, I am to give you a messnve. | The Hayden woman died this ; morning.
