We had sewing this morning in room 17. Papa and Baby went to Uncle Ralph's this afternoon. They rode in Mr. Knight's buggy. We girls don't think Gladys Wood is just the right kind of a girl and so we didn't want to go with her. So Mr & Mrs Wood came up to-night to see about it but I don't know what to do. Uncle Ed has stopped working in the shops and is learning the barber trade. Isn't he changeable?
