J. Miller came this A.M. to clean the kitchen so I had more time and swept the room before I began drawing. Finished pencil drawing of flat now of the ass and took my singing leson. Then went to the Billins for tea. Uncle N & Aunt E. also away for tea and [[Litiens?]] concert. Was doing some mending in my room when the bell rang and Aunt El. called me down. It was Arthur S. and he spent the evening. I got awfully sleepy, soothing tones of his voice I think. N.L.B. brought E home, she had great fun with him. Uncle C. came over to day. An uninteresting day.
