Sorry you have suffered with your lameness. do be careful, guess you are both too careless about lifting heavy things, it doesn't pay in the end. I think we are going to have fish for our Sunday dinner & squash is on cooking also. my butterscotch is left so will have that for desert.

All the children at the Popellors are having mumps, he said yesterday they were about all over it. we have missed their being outside playing around their yard. Mrs Barry met Mary Toomey at the beauty parlor Wednesday while she was having her hair done. 

Then Thursday while at Chicataubert meeting Clo Hegan fell on the front steps there & cut a deep gash on her leg below the knee. those steps are very far apart & hard to climb I think they say.
 
We haven't seen Doris since Thanksgiving day. guess she must be very busy between studies & tending at the book store. she may be out when least expected soon. I guess you must miss her there at home. poor Dolores has a hard time hope it strikes easier as time goes on. guess the mother would miss her if anything should happen.

Mrs Barrys sister Josephine started for Florida the first of this month we think she took the right time for certainly the temperature has been coldest ever since the month began. I will now leave this letter to go make up my fire in the little stove. hope your leg is feeling much more natural, so be careful.
love Ma
