Now her Girl Scout training and Army Nursing Corps training.came to the fore and served her in good stead. Before that week was out Ken Wensloff was made to under- stand why she, not he, had been named recreation director of the small camp, and before that week occasion to congratulate himself again and again for having had the perception to give this job to a girl with no formal training in the art of making summer fun for people desperately in the need of pleas- yre, relaxation. His tufted white eyebrows arched when he saw the By schedule she had drawn up y the end of that week. “You cer- tainly don’t intend to let anyone be bored, do you, Miss Bancroft? Well, we'll see, we'll see. Personal- ly, I think there ought to be more campfire meetings, but aside from that it’s a grand schedule. Are you quite certain you're up to it?” She laughed. “I've discovered an uncut diamond in Mike O'Reilly. He has a great fondness for peo- ple, and, more to the point, he nows the woods here as well as I know the lines on the palm of my hand. He’d make a grand assistant and I know he'd welcome the chance to prove he can do something other than main- tenance work.” He was pleasantly surprised. you? I'm sure no one else in this camp took the trouble to become really acquainted with so unim- Pie an employee as Mike. ‘ell, I dare say we can spare him.

Evelyn Moore, incidentally, is also quite pleased with you.” “I'm just as glad, though, that you didn’t tell her about my service overseas. Evelyn Moore is—well, Evelyn Moore is what I was when I was her age. It would be difficult to live with her if she were always at me to get back into the glorious fession of nursing.
