Bernice and I walked to S.S. this morning and we had an interesting lesson about Visions. Mary wasn't there so I sat with Irene in S.S. and church. Olive has a new coat -- tan. Bernice and I went to Grandma H's for dinner. I walked up with Grandma H & Aunt Mettie. Grandpa played the gramaphone to us after dinner and some of the pieces certainly showed me visions. Zella went up to Wakarusa this noon & to Auburn with Maude. Bernice went somewhere this afternoon. I went to the P.O. and got an interesting letter from Helen S. She was in the flood lately in Ohio. I saw Esther D down town & she and I started walking out south. We saw Lang Hogle and John Shi and they wanted to go with us so we let them. We walked out to the cemetery, picked a lot of "daffodillys" and came back. I saw Howard and Harold. I wish they had taken us riding because I was so tired. I also saw Max H. When we got to town I saw Cecil H. and she took me a piece to Elders and there we met Eugene and Kenneth R. & they all took me up to Beverly's. I read letters to the boys from Ivaloo D & they were certainly silly. I got home about 7 o' and walked about 7 mi. today. The wter works are having the standpipe built on the hill where Alex Patterson used to live. O yes! Joe Digherro said "Good Evening" to me when I passed this evening.

Zella walked out home this morning. Bernice went out to the farm with papa. I ironed and sewed, then this afternoon, Baby walked to town and Zella, Mama & I rode. Mama bought me tan voile for the outside of my reception dress, tan goods for a coat and green messalin to trim it in. Aunt Lula, Uncle Jim, Tommy and Ruth were over this evening. Howard called me up & said that someone gave him some advice -- I'm anxious to know what it is.

Mr. Gift the new Normal Inspector talked to us this morning -- Starbeck and Curdy went home at noon. We didn't have any school this afternoon. They had a school meeting though and I attended it and sat with Hattie Spalding. There were about 125 or 150 there and they let Mr Hoover be re-elected and Mr Nelson be elected in papa's place. It was quite disgusting. Raymond Gilkeson took me in to Fogwell's and treated me to an ice cream soda -- oh yes! Then I went to Cecil's and practiced a song, went back to town, found papa and we went home. O.H. kindly informed us that we would have to meet Zella to-night. Papa, Bernice and I went to Literary, but papa didn't get there until the last half as he went to meet Zella, however she went to the dance with Beulah and Clifford. I sang - punk - sat with Harold A. behind and Howard and Bess M (he took her home & Harold took Mary M), debated and Jean & I won. Hurrah!! The judges were: Helen Palmer, Miss Ellis, & Mabel Holleck. Max H asked to take me home so I let him but we went down to the dance first. I danced waltz with Kenneth R, two step -- Turkey in the Straw -- with Eugene S, Circle Kenneth R, Mr. Stewart, Earl Beale, Darrell, Sam, Clifford and another waltz with Clifford C and then we went home -- just love to dance -- but I don't like Max H --huh-uh! Zella stayed all night with Beulah.

It rained early this morning so the kids didn't come to school. I went to Grandma H's to dinner. I recited my debate to Starbeck after school and talked to her awhile. Then I went down to the opera house & the first three acts practiced. I am in the third act. Papa came for me but we hadn't practiced so as Gertrude K. asked me to, I stayed all night with her. We read a couple of stories after supper, talked a little and went to bed.

To-day is Lula's ninteenth birthday. Lura kindly informed me that Howard was with Alma last night. According to Harold's directions -- from Howard, I called the latter up at noon. I started to tease him about Alma and he said he wasn't with her. Lloyd walked part way home with me to-night -- that is up to Grandma H's and he sure stuffed me -- told me things I never knew before. Some I didn't believe. Howard came for me about 7:30 and the first time in a long time -- I was really excited. Both the Cartoonist and Impersonator were real good. The folks were there -- Howard finally owned up that he was with Alma and he told me something that she told him that she did -- quite shocking! We went for a little walk and I told him some things that Lloyd told me and he said Lloyd didn't know anything about it. We were both real good natured about it and talked very sensibly about "busting". I believe I had every feeling or emotion I ever had for Howard to-night, except dislike or hatred. I was very, very thankful. I had many visions for the future to-night.

I learned the rest of my debate to-night. It rained and tried to snow to-day but succeeded very poorly. I got a note from Howard to-day asking if I could stay in town to-morrow night. The first to acts of the play practiced to-night.

However Carnaveaus overtook them when they were halfway there and so took her on up. Bernice, Baby and I went over to Lula's this afternoon. They have name the baby Ruth. She isn't very pretty yet. We kids (I) made some taffy this afternoon -- pretty good. I wrote a little for my debate to-night.

We all washed this morning. I ironed and sewed, read and lay down this afternoon. Baby and papa spent the day working out our future home. Bernice went to town this afternoon. Zella came home from Topeka this evening. O.H. brought her out but he didn't come in. Zella got several new pieces of music.
