Poor Mary cried herself to sleep she thinks Bernard Brooks and she have quit. I’ll bet Pauline cried to sleep too. Why did Bernard Brooks have to stuck get stuck on Doris. Mary or I neither slept much. Then got up at 6 to take Mr. Burtch to country. Mary brought me home around noon. Picked Bernard Brooks up. Slept all p.m. Took flowers and hanky to my butterfly sister (her birthday). Went down to Mary Burtch’s to get all my pink. Neva home for summer.

Finished most of the plan in the morning. I went uptown at noon down to M. & P. & J.’s home and there was Glenn. He stayed until we went to Mary’s to meet. It almost rained. Helen and Melvin went ahead and Ivan and Orly drove 21 mules to get 7. Loads of fun with Pauline around the campfire but Glenn acted up. Bob was sweet to me. Ivan got us root beers. Bob and Bernard Brooks came in at Mary’s. I stayed all night.
