vigorously.

As he and Jack walked out of the hospital, the latter remarked:

"You seem to be a favorite there, all right, Tom, my boy. If we
weren't such good chums I might be a bit jealous."

"If you feel that way I'll drop Bessie Gleason a note!" suggested
Tom, quickly.

"Don't!" begged Jack. "I'll be good!"




CHAPTER IV

TRANSFERRED


One glance at the bulletin board, erected just outside their
quarters at the aerodrome, told Tom and Jack what they were detailed
for that day. It was the day following the arrival of Nellie Leroy
at that particular place in France, only to find that her brother
was missing--either dead, or alive and a prisoner behind the German
lines.

"Sergeant Thomas Raymond will report to headquarters at eight
o'clock, to do patrol work."
