1 Sunday, January 1, 1928 Well [[doodles]] I hope this has begun the noo yeer rite. If it hasn't nodinkz will. Anyhoo lets hope so! O.T. A.L. ___ ___ ___ ___ ____ ___ _____ ___ It seems funny to think that to-day has started a new year! Just hundreds of days, that we know nothing about — but I hope happy ones. 1927 was my happiest, and nicest year — it was here I met Orvil, the others and Al! I have made no resolutions, I hold but two — no three thoughts — First, to write in this book, only the truth, second, to be sincere to all my friends, especially Al, third, to try to make this an advantages and happy year. I hope, that next year I will still like Al,— because it has been so nice knowing him. This morning walking with Dick Amberg - This afternoon, Ad Blum came over. He is fairly nice, - uninteresting and unexciting - but not bad. Al called up from the Sunday Evening Club Dinner -! I've been thinking over last night! It was so darling of him to call up - just as this year began - I think I really do "love" him — but perhaps I don't even understand the meaning of the word — He means a great deal though - and inspite of Mother's objection to this "eighteen-year old" - it has been perfectly alright - and the letters so nice! So begins this year — as any other day!
