Dear Mother and Daddy,
I'm afraid that I have not been as regular as I should have been about writing letters lately. But, now more than ever, I have been living in a constant daze. Finals start on Saturday. They havea reputation for being very stiff so I am trying hard to learn enough to pass them. I have just been trying to correct all my English compositions. I expected to finish them today, but on about the third one I got ratehr inspired to re-write one and so I will have to do them all tomorrow.
I certainly enjoyed having Annette here, but when she left I felt as if I hadn't really seen her. Paul Hayes insisted on taking her out on Friday soon after she arrived and on Saturday morning I had a class from 9-12 and she left again with Paul at one and I left at two. On Sunday though we went to Church and then over to Mrs. Harris' for lunch. She had to leave soon though and get her off on the
2
train; so I didn't really have anytime to have a long talk with her. We were both rather perturbed at Paul because she didn't especially want to go out with him, I think she would have rathered and would have had more fun if I had gotten her a blind date. Sally and I had a wonderful time on Saturday, though. It was about the first time this summer that I have gone in swimming and the pool at the country club is just wonderful. I certainly took advantage of it. I went in swimming twice in the afternoon and once at night.
I am coming home on Thursday the 21st on the Daylight so be looking for me. Please don't forget to send the suitcase for me to send some things home in. Address it to
Mary Allie Lesnett Roble Hall Stanford University
instead of my regular box number.
Will see you soon. Love to all, Mary
