Jo-even her mother and father called her Jo lived just across the road from the station. She worked forty-eight hours on and twenty-four off.
She Found Secret
She kept the station alive with her smile.
A tom-boy she revelled in the men's games-football, cricket, billiards, a run round Parliament Fields at five in the morning with a station officer.
When Dick Whittington was in the watch room she used to waltz him round the floor. Dick weighs twenty-odd stene.
All the firemen in North Lon. don knew her.
They will miss Jo now.
Jo was playing table tennis with an A.F.S. man the other night when bombs flung her across the room.
She had discovered the secret of living happily in a world that is upside down--and of making others happy, too.
She was killed, but any A.F.S. man in her district will tell you that Jo's-spirit lives on.
