Junior Guild meeting had 6 dishes of beans for the Potluck Supper. 20 present. Should have a live Guild. Jean Quick was elected pres. Did dishes & I walked home with some of the kids. Ruby is still here.

Monday October 10 1932
Went home from school with Mary & helped her get ready for Int. Guild Potluck Supper. Rhea King is our new advisor. Helen & I stayed all night.
Such stories as we’re reading in Lit. Ambroise Bierce, Poe get on my nerves.

Sunday October 9 1932
Helen & Mary came down for supper & just before B.Y. Bruce Merlin & his girl came for just a minute. We took our time going to B.Y. Our feelings were hurt last Monday night. We three sang in the choir. Loads of fun.

Saturday October 8 1932
Got up with a headache and got so sick I couldn’t go to the game. Mary & Helen came and went, the band passed, I could hear the cheers. Shelby’s band organized & I didn’t even get to see Bob J. Melvin’s came home so maybe it turned out all right. Mary stayed all night and rubbed my head. Fanny & Floy came for the weekend.

Friday October 7 1932
The boys can’t come. No money they say. Helen & I went to choir practice. Had lots of fun with GGW of course with Dale’s teasing. Elsie Barger brought me home. Daddy was using our car.

Miss Foreman had me tell her how I judged all the articles in the Herald eighth period. Mary asked me down for supper & all night. She fixed my hair again. I typed, she got journalism. Wrote letter to Merlin asking he & Bruce & Bob over for the game.

Sunday October 2 1932
S.S. and then to Aunt Lillie’s. Went back to the woods for PawPaws. Got some pretty berries & some bittersweet. Got home just in time for B.Y. Ruby & Noreen came home with us.
Read Poe’s “Descent into the Maelstrom” and practiced telling it. Brrr Brrrr.
