Papa, Aunt Sady, Mama and I got Downy's buggy this afternoon, went over to the courthouse after Uncle John and then went out to Wheeler Park. It is a "free for all" park. There is a creek around it and also nice grass and trees and the grape vine swings. They have tables and benches so that you can eat there. They have animals of all kinds and flowers. Mr. and Mrs. Kerr and niece "Betty Blue" (Elizabeth) Johnson were over this evening. Papa stayed here all night.

Papa and I walked down to the drugstore and back (5 blocks). Mama and Papa, Uncle Stewart and Aunt Lou went out to the Belle Isle this evening. Aunt Sady and I went out riding with Mrs. Downy. When we came back we sat on the porch and watched the people over at Stoels as they were having a party. Mama and Papa came home and they (Stoehls) brought over some ice cream and cake. I sent postals to Florene, Miss Palmer, Marshall, Grandma H, Ethel, Claire, Baby and Miss Spalding. I got a letter from Aunt Mettie and Claire Buek. I sent a postal to Norma too.

Mama and Papa came every day over to the hospital twice a day and Aunt Sady came two or three times and Uncle John once a day. Mrs. Cornelius two or three times and Robert once or twice. Uncle Stewart came two or three times. Aunt Sady got me a white parasol (She got me a white dress with pink dots in too several weeks ago.) Clyde brought me some carnations. Mrs. Stoel sent me some pansies and Mrs. Cornelius gave me phlox and Aunt Sady gave me nasturtiums. I sat up in bed first either Sun. or Mon. evening. I didn't eat much at the hospital because the food didn't taste good. The doctors (Dr. Messenbaugh and Dr. Howard) would come once or twice a day to see me. I got a postal from Marshall R, Emil S, Beulah and Miss Palmer while I was at the hospital. I also got one that Florene Allen had sent to B'game and Mama had sent to Okla. City. Mama went to a show at Delmar with Uncle John to-night and to hear the great Swedish singer Helen Renstrom at Christian church. Papa saw a great many things I guess.
