Fair. I went to school. Gen McArthur (brave leader in Phillipines. who led Americans & Philipineos against Japs) has gone to Australia where he is of more use. Mrs. McAdams' husband flew to Australia quite awhile ago too.

DESKAIDE * THE SILENT SECRETARY * 1942

MARCH
18
WEDNESDAY

Fair + Rainy. Moderately Warm. I went to school. Bobby's little sisters don't have the mumps after all but Ann (older-5 yrs.) has ear ache (maybe disease - ear) & Bobby has mumps + gave her whole room at school mumps. I gargle every night because I have been near Bobby next week & yesterday. (Carolyn told me-it may not be true) Evelyn Ballue gargled and she was only one who didn't get it when she was small.
