When Nan went on her first visit to Burope she had not the slightest hint that she would arrive in a land ‘hrown into the horrors of war. She had taken her trip across the ocean on a long delayed holiday and had expected to find only joy and merriment, for Nan had a way of meeting happiness balf way wherever she went. But in Belgium she had fled from the advance of the common enemy into Paris and from the gay city she had enjoyed a scant three weeks when with hundreds of other Americans she had scrambled onto safer Eng- Hsh soil. " London was a haven of refuge to Nan, who had smelled the smoke of battle and heard the boom of dis- tant fire. She had seen pitiful little families of Belgian refugees fleeing along the roads from devastated homes, leaving behind them all beau- , ty and all hope and going they knew not where. But London was waiting with open arms to receive all of the weary refu- gees from the courageous little coun- try, and Nan found herself again face to face with the realities of war. There were no less than a dozen of these Belgians sheltered in hospitable homes in Norland square.

Jean's mother was a French lady, who was sleeping beneath a flower garden in Belgium. Her father was a soldier, Maj. Albert Leman. From that moment on Jean and Nan became fast friends. They ' romped and played and went on long 'bus rides through the city and out into country lanes. When the wounded soldiers began to arrive in trainloads, Nan could no more have left the city of London ' than she could have cut off her own right hand. She simply had to re | main. Something held her, she knew not what. It was during the sixth week of tho war that Nan discovered little Jean Leman's photograph on the front page of the Sketch. Major Leman was anxiously seeking news of his little girl and had asked the papers to as- ' eist him in the search. Nan did not wait to have her breakfast but went quickly into the boarding house next door in search of Jean. Nan explained as swiftly as possi- ble in her improved French that Dad- dy Soldier was in London and that he n ot et it B3 JOS. LeVAY .
