Peter s family was poor. So he had to work in his spare time in order to get enough money for his education. It was too dear to study at the university that he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time during the holidays. One summer he got a job in a butcher s shop during the daytime, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, the butcher often let him do all the serving while he went into a room behind the shop to do the accounts. In the hospital, on the other hand, he was, of course, allowed to do only the simplest jobs, like helping to lift the patients and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butcher s shop and at the hospital, Peter had to wear white clothes. It happened one evening at the hospital that Peter had to help to carry a woman patient from her bed to the place where she was to have an operation. The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her, and when she saw Peter, she was greatly frightened. "No! No!" she cried. "Not my butcher! I won t be operated on by my butcher!" and she fainted away.
