There came to her a letter from an Association of Pro- Tessional Women. This body had somehow got the Strange idea that women of proved merit and ability would be wanted by the country.

They were preparing a re- gister of them in readiness.

Mrs X had run her own business so successfully that she was able to retire at forly.

She was a neat, energetic, little woman enjoying rude health, and when the Associa- tion of Professional Women wrote asking her.. if they might add her name to their list, Mrs X replied with a de; finite yes.

"Having no ties," said Mrs X, "I will go anywhere."

Four forms arrived by re- turn of post, Mrs X filled them in, though it, seemed a little strange they should. want to know the Christian name of her mother, the pro- fession of her father, and the date at which they expired.

All these things Mrs X laid hare. She then proceeded to put her affairs in order.

She left her cottage in charge of Comic. Connic was a dear girl, and one with whom bens and vegetables could be left with the utmost confidence.

But she was not equipped for fighting single-handed the hard battles of the world. Mrs X had solemnly promised Connie's young man, serving in Egypt. that she would make a home for Connie until he re- turned.

"For" he saith, "I shall not worry if 1 know she is safe with you."

Months went by. Nothing happened. In answer to in- quiries Mrs X was told that there was no demand what- ever for the services of com- petent women.

But at the same time she was approached by another Society. With winning pam- phlets they begged her in triplicate to place her services at the disposal of her country forthwith.

Nothing venture, nothing have, thought Mrs X, so she replied that she would be only, too delighted.

Three forms arrived. They came by the same post as a circular stressing the need of paper economy, and four Sales Catalogues printed in colour, all from the same shop, all addressed to Mra X at the same address,

Mrs X filled in the forms, and-put the waste paper into the store nobody ever collect- ed out of her garden shed, und waited with renewed hope.

Nothing happened. But pre- sently, briskly and one after the other, came three separate envelopes, with three separate pictures of the same pretty girl in a pented cap, with a good deal of printed litern- ture, which said that the Women's Services needed Mrs: X NOW.

This seemed quite hopeful, Mrs X investigated the Women's Services. She was interviewed by a charming little girl in a asked her if she would like to be becoming blue uniform, who

She was interviewed by a busy bee in khaki who asked her if she could drive a lorry. And in áll these services Mrs X found she would be forced into a species of Fancy Dress, and have to perform many evolutions of saluting, marching and counter- marching.

NOTHING DOING

This appeared to Mrs X a bit silly at her time of life. Sho knew she would never be good at It, and there were things at which she had been proved very good indeed, as proved by her bank account.

It seemed to her that the Women's Services were for younger women who were also looking for a bit of fun. So she crossed-off-the-Women's-Scr
