CHAPTER X1 Tran had started awaké that morning thinking, "This is the day y' It was to_have been the calmi- nation of 'the dreams of almost two years. For today she was to help at one of Dr. Stéphen Sar- gent's operations. i True, she had worked under several of the other surgeons be- fore--but that was not the same. Now, scrubbed and sterilized, in laparotomy gown and cap, rubber gloves and niask, she was to take part at last in the antiphonal chant which she had rehearsed alone with a pair -of scissors that day, almost two years ago, before the shining cases in the instrument reom. . That was the first time Bob Benchley had kissed her. Oh, well-- Today it would be very differ- . ent. "Scalpel" Dr. Sargent would snap.

In honor of the occasion, Tran . had had a shampoo, a fingerwave and a manicure: Not that any one would know the difference, but * having done so gave her an up- lifted feeling of being fit and clean and ready, like a priestess per- forming cleansing rites before a sacrifice . Beula Tagg, who was also helping, scandalized Tran by chcosing to sleep instead of purifying. But then: Beula was only to be "dirly nurse," which means that her lot was to pick up messy things that the serubbed nurses mustn't touch. Tran's mood of exaltation had been momentarily jarred as she ning by the sight of Dr. Benchley and his pretty widow, coming to- rooms . . . The charming Mrs. Maitland seented to have a num- ber of friends who were patients _ these days. ox Something intimately possessive in the way she rested a hand on Bob's sleeve and laughed up into his face surprised Tran into a sud- den unreasonable fury of resent- ment. : A Refusal She reminded herself with a _.if I'd-liked, couldn't I? T've got what 1 did want, haven't 1?"

"So sorry, but I'm not going that way," Tran answered with what she hoped was just the right touch of tolerant amusement to point the difference between a busy professional woman and a mere social butterfly, "and I'm in rather a hurry, myself. Nurses, you know, are slaves to the clock. 44 Young Dr. swiftly from one to the other with a manner at first startled; then, as his eyes came to rest on Tran, faintly amused. The Catastrophe Congratulating himself on his happy escape, Tran thought. Well, he's not the only one. The catastrophe came shortly after the operation was over. To- ward the end, a violent wind and electrical storm had blown up. Even the serenely. beautiful Miss Miller, who was handling the su- tures, glanced up apprehensively once or twice when small objects crackled in the hushed room with cach blinding. flash of lightning. When it was over, and the pa- tient had been wheeled away, only Dr. Sargent, Miss Miller, and Tran r because "DF. Sargent had detained. her; Tran, because there were still thirgs she had to do. Moving - about betwgén thie in- strument table ~ and the service - room, Tran heard Miss Miller say, "Congratulations, Doctor. No one but you could have done that. He'll live, don't you think?" . She heard Top Sarge reply a little wearily, "And what, in God's name, has the poor devil to live for? . . . This is the kind of case that makes a surgeon feel like a criminal." "But the operation was success- ful." "The operation? . . . Is that all yau ever think of, Katherine? Af- -ter 'all, patients are human beings, 'you know." Shattered Glass Tran didn't mean to listen, but they ' seemed to have forgotten by a window, against a stormy background of wind-swayed trees and dashing rain--standing with the look of two who instinctively drew together, yet in the final resolution were left always apart. 'Miss Miller's low, even voice. said something else that Tran did not catch, and Dr. Sargent an- swered 'almost bitterly, "Yes, and even surgeons are sometimes hu- man beings, Katherine. . . .

Dr. Sargent just stood, his left 'hand clasped above his right el- bow, while blood spurted from a deep cut below, 'After that first shocked outery, Miss Miller went into action with her usual swift, sure poise, her voice low and even in command, her face a smooth mask of quiet, . self-assured competence, her slim hands working faultlessly as she applied a tourniquet and dispatch- * ed Tran to summon a doctor. Meantime, Stephen Sargent sat with-a face )ike granite, his eyes on the fingers of that right hand which had performed so many dar- ing miracles--fingers that now hung lax and helpless, and would riot move, no matter how hard she tried to flex them, When Miss Miller - said 'in her clear, even voice, "As soon as the shock wears off, the nerve will come to life," he only lifted bleak eyes and said with bitter amuse. ment, "Your bedside technique is as perfect as ever, Miss Miller," Just then Dr. Benchley hurried in with a fresh nurse; and Miss Miller turned and walked with her erect, light step out of the room. It was a moment before Tran fol- lowed. . "Come Alive!" When she did go into the ser- vice room beyond, Katherine Mil- ler, "the icicle," stood, leaning against a supboard door, her face buried against her bent arm, her body wrenched with sobs.

"Then for heaven's sake," said hardily, "go and do something about it. Let him sce how you feel. You're the only one who Tran can do him any good now." "But I -- I can't." Amazingly ihe correct Miss Millerwas crying out in the thin,~high voice of a frightened child. "He's so -- I'm afraid. . You know what he's like." "Why should you be afraid of him if I'm not?' Tran demanded. "He's crazy about you. "Any one with eyes can see- that.

Are your gestures quick and jerky? Do you dart- here and there and bump into furniture? In cooking, do you burn yourself often? Do dishes slip from your hands and smash? Do you narrowly miss be- fag run down by taxi-2abs? Do you arrive wherever you are going in a state of breathlessness? Then undoubtedly you lack poise 'and. it is equally certain that you habitually breathe short, quick breaths from the upper part of the chest.

They're designing coiffur- es "for" the Queen, "inspired by" the Queen, or to be worn with frocks for which the Queen is said to have expressed a fondness. Take the "crinoline diéss coif- fure" of M.
