54 Judith looked down at the note with puzzled eyes. When she had read the address she was more puzzled than ever. It was addressed to "Miss Busy Bee, care of Messrs, Harford & Harâ€" ford, Third Window, Fourth Floor, Facing West Central Hospital," It was a joint invitation from some of the boys in the men‘s ward, asking her to tea the following Saturday. There was to be a concert, and if she could join in, so much the better, They had watched her so often, and she had smiled at them so often, that they all felt they knew her. She looked so happy that they wantec to know her better, Judy, surprised and touched, decided messenger, They were all pleased to see her except the serious young man.

The old men sat by their windows in the sun and‘ nodded to her. "The building opposite," said Judy terseiy. But that, thouch indirectly true, was not so entirely. Judith would hardly admit it to herself, but it was the man opposite who had upset her. He stared so often ard so hard that she had been bound to notice him, but she was often forced to wonder wheâ€" ther he had really noticed ber. And because she was no. sure she was angry with herself for being so interested in him, angry with herselt for liking his Tair, thoughtful young face, his serious, frowning brows, but she was angrier still with him because he never smiled.

I suggested that it was no use having a modern building if we didn‘t make the most of it, so we are going to have a short concert thero at lunchâ€"time, when everyone will be out and about. They‘ll get an awfully good view from the street, and we‘ll have people down in the streets collecting, Don‘t you think it‘s a good idea?" "I came across more to see you than to collect," he was saying. Her heart leapt, and she raised starry eyes to him, He smiled. Standing before her, shaking his collectingâ€"box, he seemed younger and gayer than she had ever seen him. "You‘re not supposed to do this sort of thing, surely," she said, when she had recovered from her surprise, she fumbled in her bag for halfâ€"aâ€"crown, which really was the most she could afford, and as she fumbled sho read the legend: "Peter Maddox, Housel Surgeon‘s Collecting Box."

After long minutes she began to think that her own room on the fourth flsor had been forgotten; then the Jdoor opened and someone came in. He came straight across to her seat by the winâ€" dow as if she were the only person: he wished to see. ‘ _ The next week was Hospital Week for the West Central Hospital, and excitement ran high. Students paradâ€" ed the streets in white coats or fancy dress; smiling nurses collected at corâ€" ners. On the Tuesday thore was a door to door collection, and the stuâ€" dents raided the offices of Messr3. Harford & Harford. "Oh, he approves of you all right.
