Ronald has a car accident after he takes June home, and spends his convalescence in her hospital.

She and Ronald quarrel at a party when he demands that she give up nursing, while she insists that she must continue. Some months later, June is a graduating senior, but is in danger of being expelled due to her continued tardiness resulting from late nights with Ronald. Later, at Christmas, the school supervisor, Miss Harrington, scolds Zita for being late for her shift, but after the reprimand, Miss Harrington gives Zita money to go home for the holidays, as she was not able to go the year before. He plays along with her charade, although it does not take long before they really fall in love. To save face, June does just that and even jumps in Ronald's cab with him, much to his delight. Their heightened responsibilities do not prevent Gertrude's meddling, however, and when she reads in a newspaper that Ronald will be visiting their town, she questions June about whether she will meet him at the train station. As second year students, they then begin training in the adjoining hospital. Despite the intrigues, the girls continue their studies, and after six months, take their first big exam, which they pass. June has merely invented the tale, but later, when scheming Gertrude writes to Ronald requesting verification of June's claim, his sympathetic secretary McPherson replies that June is indeed Ronald's girl friend. On their first night there, June comforts her homesick roommate Zita by telling her about her own boyfriend, Ronald Hall III, a rich, high society polo player. In 1907, idealistic June Arden enrolls in the Mitchell-Reed Training School for Nurses, along with Zita Scofield, Glenda Farley, Gertrude Mack, Una Mellon and Lucy 'Pudgy' Stebbins, the girls with whom she is to become friends during a three-year struggle to follow in the footsteps of Florence Nightingale.
