Fancy Dress!

Fancy Dress! is a magazine story.

Plot
One afternoon, at Wellsworth, Gordon sees a lady wearing a nurse's uniform. He cheekily remarks that the lady is going to a fancy dress party, but he's told the lady is Nurse O'Neill, a real nurse. But, Gordon was right; she is heading to a fancy dress party, but not in her work uniform. Nurse O'Neill was in a hurry and on her way to the station's exit, she trips over the baggage trolley. The nurse is helped up and she worries that her wrist may be sprained. The Fat Controller heard the commotion and orders the nurse to return back to the hospital to be checked over. As the Fat Controller puts on a sling, the nurse tells him she still hasn't decided what to wear to the nurses' fancy dress party. The Fat Controller tells her to calm down, he can't have a "wounded soldiers rushing around the station". Gordon whistles and tells them that Nurse O'Neill could go to the party as a wounded soldier. The nurse liked that idea, she could borrow her father's army uniform and the Fat Controller helps the nurse aboard Gordon's train.

At the hospital, the nurse was treated for her sprained wrist and her father arrived with his old uniform. Back at Wellsworth, Gordon was very pleased with Nurse O'Neill's costume. The nurse then introduces Gordon to his father before she boards the train heading for the fancy dress party.
