Dear Folks:

Night before last I formally resigned the work on the pageant, so am taking time to do some things for myself. First this morning comes a letter to you. I am enclosing a check of $15.00 for co-op dues for March, April, and May, if my reckoning is correct. With the $15.00 dollars due in May from paid up shares, I reckon I am paid through August. Is that right?

I hated to give up work on the pageant, for it is the kind of thing 



We are having quite a time out here. Parents are making trouble for teachers, but, different from any other place I have been in, the principal is taking the lead in a stand with the teachers against all else, supt., school committee, and unreasonable parents. It does my heart good to know there is at least one principal in my experience who isn't a "fraid cat." At the meeting the other night it was funny to see how even the supt., who is hand in glove with the com., came around when he saw how things were going. I don't know that I am in it this time, but may be at almost any time, I suppose. I don't think that Mr. Emerson, the princ., cares so very much for me, but I think that he is a pretty good sort just the same. 

Perhaps I should get out next week-end if it is warm and pleasant. I hope That you are all well and not working too hard. I suppose you have heard lots of birds by this time. Only 3 or 4 song sparrows for me. Are the crocuses up?
Best wishes,
Lena.
