Dear People:-
Well I found no notes when I arrived but I have since heard that Miss Dutton's flunks are not out yet. Cheerful isn't it? Cora didn't get any. Isn't that fine? I haven't had time to see about the change, but Miss Hastings doesn't seem to think it would work. And Hilda seemed to think it would be awfully hard to take both Sophomore french and German at the same time.

the drawers and all around bu didn't come on any so we ran up to Miss Hastings and made eugurice. She said that she had heard my papers were very good. Edith flunked Math and so did Lucy. Mary Showkson flunked Math & Latin and French prose. We are so pleased she got through the rest. It was really better than we hoped. Elisabeth Ladd flunked English. Wasn't that foolish? It is simply because she has been

careless and forgotten to put essays in where she ought and so on. Lucile and Florence are all right. Have had my first Algebra lesson. Miss Wilkinson is certainly not Richardson class! Well you will hear soon of my success in the change. They had great doings Saturday night.
