Dear Motherkins -
As usual, I have so much to tell you that I scarcely know where to commence, so I guess I’ll begin with the important things and then tell you as many of the frivolities as I have time for. In the first place - I went to Mrs. Yost and asked her what the difference would be between trying to make up my Arg. and flunking the attempt; and first having it “incomplete” as it now is. She said that if I
I am. Dot [Twigs], poor dear, has three conditions so she’s worse off than any of us. Well, we were all bemoaning our fates and talking of how to make them up. Ted is wild to go to camp Quinibeck again next summer and she thinks she could do her work there. Connie is strong in favor of Cornell Summer School.

Then there’s another vacation project that Miss Chittenden rants on every time I have a lesson. Harold Bauer gives a recital the Saturday before Easter, i.e. April 6th and
Saturday night, SylviaTaukhurst, the noted English suffragette gave a lecture downtown in Collingwood Opera House. I
Well, I could write as many pages more, but I still have my laundry to [count] and I’m very very sleepy. Tell Evelyn I told my English teacher about her letter - the part about the butterfly and the [grids] - and she thought it was dear, too.
Lots and lots of love to all
