Thursday AM.
Dearest May Louise
Eloise is coming this afternoon! I’ll take her for a drive -- it’s a gorgeous day -- then for a cup of tea at Miss Mann’s, then Rudge is going to give her a dinner party at Smiths -- Ruth, Eloise, Betty and myself. Tonight we’re going to have a party in our room -- it’s a good thing that I only have one

Class on Friday. I don’t know how long E will stay -- she didn’t say. Wish I were going to be at home for her coming-out party on the 23rd.
Mrs Kendrick had our table to dinner with her last night. She is such a charming hostess, the dinner was so good and so dainty. We sat at a round table decorated with lovely pink roses.

I have to go to class now, so farewell until later. I can’t wait till 2.45 when Edio arrives. Isn’t it lovely of Mrs Hannah to do so much for her and for Lois and Ruth
Slews of love
Peg
