West End Nurse
She believed in these people, loved going among the poor derelicts of the slums helping where she could, scolding, encouraging, heartening and healing. That was the reason she had decided to become a nurse, and that was the faith that enabled her to stand day after day the arduous work, the disappointments, the failures, the opposition of selfishness and greed. Then the young doctor was put in charge of the district. His impersonal attitude and grim determination to do nothing beyond the call of duty was an affront to all that she believed in. She found that as well as fighting ignorance, intolerance and disease, she must fight the doctor himself, a task made only more difficult because of her growing interest in him as a man.
