I thought the same as I look- , ^ around. It is wonderful what they can do. I noticed th a t even the splintered wood, of the'chairs had been repaired with little pieces of sticking, plaster. "We. oon t want people running splintl:- ers into their hands and ̂ legs," explained Sister Prior with a quiet smile; "There^s quite " enough trouble as it is." The Raid Routine Only the first three of seven noors are used , as wards, they go after a few days, rest in .the hospital."
