Sunday just at twelve, o'clock an automobile from Hebron, containing the mother and father, arrived at the entrance of the hospital. The hour chosen was a good one for the purpose. At that time the sisters are at dinner. From an upper window the girl saw the automobile approach the hos- pital entrance. Slipping noiselessly from4ier-4U)om the girl quietly passed down the hall and to the doorway at the foot of the stairs. She was -etad only in-her-hospital gow4fc-Tak- ing a wrap from the hallway she placed it around her and left the hospital, noiselessly closing the door behind her.

With the con- valescent period her strength re- turned to her. But she could not leave her room. The disease carry- ing germs were still in her throat. She realized this and worried over the many days she would have to remain away from her studies and within the solitary walls of the hos- pital. Then an idea flashed into her mind. What if she could make her escape? She wrote to her mother and told her of her lonesomeness. The mother's heart was touched. She placed herself in her daughter's po- sition.

He immediately took it up With the state health officials of Indi- ana and they promised him that their department would make a thorough investigation. Dr.Balderston Intimat- ed that a warrant would probably be taken out for the arrest of the father. The action of the parents is consid- ered a risky one by physicians.'
