Dear Pete, Mother and Father--anything for variety:
I remembered to wire you before Pete's letter reminding me of the great event arrived! I would call you up tonight except for the fact that I saw you so recently--also I went to go to Junior Sophomore debate.
Dr. Conklin had a big crowd, Pete, but I think most of them got cuts in various courses to go.
I belive[sic] I promised you one of these snapshots at home, Father. I had to have a cophy made for the Vassarion, so I got several.
Helen and I walked to town yesterday. I got Louise's birthday present.
What's new with the doctor?
Love,
Fannie

Dear Mother:
I left the corals at Zimmer's, the big jewelry store here, to find out what it would cost to make the string six inches longer with the medium sized corals. They will let me know Wednesday. He says they are very fine corals and he thinks it will be pretty expensive. I won't do anything till I hear from you. Would you see about it at Grogan's or somewhere, or should I wait till you or I get to Atlantic? R. S. V. P. I told him they cost only $20, so he wouldn't charge too much, and he said they are very good and should have cost about $40--were you bluffing me?
