Jan. 10 Dear Mother + Father, I am writing this while waiting at the station for the train. I worked my fool head off yesterday aft. after my head was washed, I went to the [libe] to study. Lucy came to study next to me. Talking in the [libe] should be prohibited. She had a letter from Howard Spellman. You know what I told you, Mother. I bet she'll have him up for Junior prom. Last night I went to the [audulip] lecture, purely as a matter of education. I want you to know that I am trying to educate myself, but I must confess I did not digest all of it - particularly the figures. I worked when I came back till ten. The floor quieted down at eleven. It is really getting to be worse than a nuisance. I then went to sleep, and slept [until] almost dining-room closing time. I then packed my little brown bag, in case I should have to stay over night - and here I am. Miss Smith did not say whether these were to count as week-ends, but I shall not [ask] until next week. This is the 3rd. for this semester after exams can count on [either]. Your card + Phyllis' note came this morning. She must have forgotten to mail it; it was mostmarked the 6th. Don't send any food. I still have [zurichack] and can easily get more. I don't remember any other questions. Lucy told me that any weekend after exams that she goes down she will be very glad to do everything with + for me that she can. There must be ice today. It is colder and the snow is white. [The] fir trees (is that what they are?) are weighted down with snow + ice + they are beautiful. Love, Fannie Have we Josiah Roce' essay on "[Provincialism] by any chance? It is short, so it is not worth ordering from N.Y. we [would] be there with it by then.
