    I do hope my little Kitty is now well and having the good time she looks forward to all year. You have probably seen Dr. Nelson by this time. Am anxious to know what he did about the penicillin. The time is passing fast and I shall soon join you. Unless you find someone looking for a hitchhiker, I will arrive at Martinsburg at 11:35 on Thursday the 10th.

    There hasn’t been anything except the routine and plenty of it. Have sent two articles away this week. The cantaloupes are now full blown and are wonderful Are you eating the plums off my tree? The paper stated that the Collenberg’s boy is to marry soon. Audrey came over last evening to rent half of our garage. A heavy wind tore a big branch off the old maple tree. It fell against the porch windows, but none were broken. Al and I went to a baseball double header the other night (Saturday). He and the family spent the weekend at the Rienhoff’s cottage at Gibson Island. Asked me to go, but preferred to stay home.

    Since Firor is away, I am delegated to examine the students tomorrow. Walter sent me the pictorial life of Wilson. I was so thrilled. I stayed up ‘til the next morning to finish it. Haven’t heard from him - or from you all for a long time. Distance lends enchantment! Fagie comes in as usual and without restrictions. The mailman is on vacation and he (Fagie) won’t deign to play with the substitute.

    Love and kisses to my four girls – good and bad,
