Plot

Fay Farrell first appeared in the story First-Aid Fay;  Young Fay’s ambition is to be a nurse, but her wealthy parents won’t hear of it, so she leaves home and takes a job as First-Aid Assistant in Horton’s Biscuit Factory until she can save enough money to keep herself while she goes to Pre-Nursing Training School. Miss Carver, the strict Matron of the First-Aid Post, seems determined to make things difficult for Fay.  Another difficulty arises when Fay finds out that her father is on the factory’s Board of Directors.

Fay does get to continue her nursing ambition, returning in “Fay Farrell – Student Nurse”. When she becomes qualified she takes many different nursing jobs, including; an emergency nurse, fishermen’s nurse, jungle nurse and a school nurse.
