Wednesday evening.

Dear Folks:

What do you think of my spiffy paper? I wandered down Boylston Street one day and into a store where I got a whole box of it for 17 cents.

I am enclosing a clipping which I wish you would send to Doris when you write Sunday.  I have marked the books I have signed up for but now I see they are to be typewritten so I don't know about getting them done.  I thought Doris might be interested.  I hope she will try some any way.  I have my Spanish lesson sheets too which I was thinking of shipping


but Doris being here held me back at first and now I have a cold and the weather is bad, so I think I may not come out until a week from Sunday but I am not sure.  Daisy spoke about going to church with me Easter and I do hate to miss it.

To-day I went in to the Harvard Dental School to see about having my teeth x-rayed but it is not in session this week so I am to telephone next Monday if the phones are working.  After that I went down town intent on getting a job but I ended up by getting some material for a waist and working on that instead.  Mrs. W. seemed to be of the opinion that I was going to pay for my room during the summer and then let her use it while she rented hers.  She doesn't seem to think me dependable since I put the quieters on that proposition.   Daisy also says she does not like me to stay with her, that we have nothing in common but trying to be decent to each other so I guess I am again out of a home.  I am thinking of asking my cousin to take me.  I think that the baby would cheer me up.  I always was fond of them and I certainly have become a grouch lately.  I think I need something to civilize me.

Love,
Lena.
