Zella went to town this afternoon. She stayed for supper at Lottie's and then went to the Majestic. Bernice went to a picnic to-day. Each Latin class has a vocabulary of 150 words to learn. We had a test on them yesterday & the class averaging the highest gets a box of chocolates. I got 100 in the test.

Baby didn't go to school to-day. We have four cows out here. An old black Jersey with horns which just had a little calf, an old black Mooley cow which has a calf that is quite old as it was born the 17 or 18 of April, Uncle Ralph's cow which I guess Papa will not keep as it does not pay him also has a calf. Uncle Leon's cow -- as I said before also has a calf. We have named Dolly's colt Beauty and Nancy's colt Cedrick. We also have eight little pigs born the 7th of April.
