Sunday noon. Dear Mother + Father: My temperature is normal today. My throat was much better last night, but is worse again this A.M. due to the fact that I breathed thru my mouth all night. My voice was back for a while yesterday, but is practically gone again this A.M. My cough is looser, otherwise there isn't much change. We were almost frozen out in the ward downstairs, so this morning we were moved up to the second floor. It is much warmer here. There are three in the room at...

We were almost frozen out in the ward downstairs, so this morning we were moved up to the second floor. It is much warmer here. There are three in the room at present. I am going to try to do a little work today. I didn't try as long as I had fever because I didn't feellike it because it hurt my eyes to read. I know nothing else to tell you. except that Dr. T. said last night she saw where my mother would be taking me to A.C. again. but <she said> I assured her you were going to be in Pgh. for a while now. I imagine I'll be out by Wed. or Thurs. I'm not in a hurry as long as my throat is so sore + my cold so bad. Did you send up to Helen's for my watch? Does the sale of 380 have any effect on your moving in-clinations? Love, Fannie 4.P.M. The only news since this morning is having slept 2 hrs. this PM + also having a [gain ] degree of fever.

Feb 8. Dear Mother + Father: The 100 odd in Heredity are beingseated, so here goes a letter. Had lunch with Helen + Mrs. Hertz at noon, then went to the station with them, + Helen + I walked home. It is a wonderful day. And here I am. I am going to see if the Dean's office will let me go back into Zo.

If I should miss it - the 11:37 has been late in its history - I'll take the 4 P.M. Shall we meet at Broad St.? I had a card from aunt Pauline. Otherwise nothing new. Love, Fannie Don't worry - Zo won't make my course any [harde]. The Dean's office changed my schedule in such a way that I'll be able to have my 4 lab hrs. in 2 periods.

May 9, 1920. Dear Mother and Father: I suppose you have foretold already what the state of my mid would be just about this time. All I needed was a visit to Miss Cowley! Of course she pointed out the value of math merely from the point of view of living in modern times and being able to follow modern invention, etc. And then, she said she did not see what I should give up a course that I wanted to take merely for the sake of self-discipline, she thought I was entitled to a course that I...

Hang----. Search me what I'll do. Ruth Frankline just told me argumentation is very stiff and requires a lot of work. I am not so keen about thay[sic] for next year under those circumstances. Miss Cowley was very nice, outside of that, I mean. Sometimes she is easy to talk to, and sometimes she is not. She said among other things that unless you are particularly brilliant in a subject it is a mistake to double the second year already. I am going back to my room tomorrow noon. I fooled around and was lazy most of the day. I finished the French book. Otherwise there is nothing new to tell you.

[To] do it without telling father, even, is the worst of it. Wouldn't you think mere common decency + [seef] respect <would> not be as scarce as they apparently are? I'll be glad to see you at Smith if you really care to go. Sat., Mar 17, evening. [In haste].

Sept. 28, 1920. Dear Mother + Father, I stayed in Main with Lucy for lunch + now it is raining, so I'll stay here for awhile. The dining-room here certainly is packed + noisy.

We spent most of the time discussing the meaning of patriotism + American-ization. The two brightest girls in the Senior class are in our class (one the junior xyz), lots of other seniors, + bright juniors! Gee- In english we discussed the present [meahing] of theword "romance" (in lit-erature, Father.) For Friday we have to read "The Rescue" Conrad. I wish the print had been large enough for me to read it in the hospital. By the way, Dr. B. performed her task satisfactorily Sunday night. I [felt] good yesterday, but not so good today. Yesterday was a terribly [strenous] day, though. How about those Ec books? As usual, I am in a hurry. Love, FannieI think I answered all your questions yesterday.

I slept late yesterday and got little work done. The feature of the afternoon were a foolish faculty-student hocky game, and a mock "Army-Navy" football game. They were very amusing. I [then] took a walk, and worked for two hrs. And now you have the history of my life. Love, Fannie Get the socks that sell [lest].

Show more[postmarked 8 Nov 1921] Dear Mother and Father: Just a minute to breath in! I had a full day today, work and classes all day except when I worked on debate and went to Junior Party rehearsal I have debate practice tonight. The team was announced this morning. I was surprised, to say the least. Kellogg, the third speaker in class debate last year, the only Soph speaker in intercollegiate, is an alternate. Bish persuaded Emma McDonald, who told her before tryouts that she was going to the Yale-Princeton game and was told she could be an alternate and go away, to stay and take the first speech. The other speaker is Lois Barclay, whom I would have made an alternate. To my way of thinking they made two very decided mistakes. I shall be terribly rushed till Thursday, so I will only be able to write cards. I hope that the rush won't get me in edge. The real point of this letter is this: The class of 1923 is planning a very elaborate and well-organized sale of Christmas gifts, the profits of which are to go toward the class quota for the Endowment Fund. We hope to raise enough to have the whole quota that way. I give my articles to the booth for men's gifts. We were urged to see ifwe could get anything wholesale, and better still, if we couldn't get the whole sale place to give the things as a form of gift to the endowment fund. So I bethought me of Rauh's, and didn't see whey when you and Pete buy silk socks there you couldn't buy some for yourselves, which I would sell here. Would you get them, Mother? Get about ten dollars' worth--I guess that would be a half dozen pairs. Uncle Ike, also my chairman, told me to write to them, and if I worded it tactfully enought, they would offer to give the stuff, and then if we sell them, it would be entirely profit. Or should I write them myself? R. S. V. P. immediately, as the sale is right after Thanksgiving. When I got back from New York last night, there was a telegram from Harold, which I was to use to help have the debate date changed so that I could get up to New Haven next week. It was--(a great big fib) "Our plans absolutely upset unless you come to game Saturday. We are counting on you". But it didn't do any good. The Sophs refuse to change. Besides which, with the team composed as it is, that probably means that I am main speaker, because Emma is definitely booked for the first speech, and I simply could not ditch the thing now. Such is life when one wants to be intellectual as well as social! Just the same--darn the old debate. As you notice, I haven't invested in typewriter paper yet. I didn't say the weather was warm as toast at the [game], Father. I said I was. What with a fur coat, a big plusy cushion to sit on, and a steamer-rug to wrap up in, I couldn't very well be anything else. I had a great day. The only thing that went wrong was not getting to Princeton till twelve-thirty, but I didn't see how I could ditch Uncle Ike and Aunt Bessie when I was staying with them, and go over ahead of them. We had lunch at Commons, the four of us plus Harold. I had the honor of seeing andspeaking to Albert Cabet, who was waiting on the table--not ours. While we were eating Marian, Jun or Weil, Ruth G, and Byron Foster filed out past us. I got up and spoke to them, just for a minute. Marian told me to call her up Sunday morning, but I did not do so. After lunch I saw Grace Lubin and met her brother. We walked down to the game with them. He is very English, naturally enough. Grace has gotten to be very good looking. Don't laugh, I really mean it. Lester tried to persuade them to stay over for dinner, but they had promised their mother and Eorothy who was in B. M. for the week-end, to be back there for dinner. The same party that had lunch together, plus Howard Baer, had dinner together. We enjoyed it very much. We left on the seven-thirty special, and got back to Woodmere at ten-fifteen. It was a fine day, although the Harvardite got on my nerves more than was good for me and all of us several times during the afternoon. He is one overgrown fool in a good many respects. Incidentally, he is suffering from his sprained vocal cords, and can hardly say a word. So he entertains all interested by talking deaf and dumb to them. He and I took a long walk Sunday morning. We called for the kids at Sunday school. I studied and played with the kids in the afternoon. We left at six and got to the station at seven-thirty. I took the seven-forty-five up and a taxi out to college. That is the end of a perfect week-end, almost perfect, I mean. But I shudder when I think of all that must be gotten into the next four days. I am glad you are home Father. Let Mother fuss over you all she wants. She knows more about the care of the feeble than you do. Love, Fannie

I could not think of taking a later train, Mother, with you in New York I am going to do my Latin prose tonight I think Miss [Bowene] will expect us to have it done, as she assigned it last week. Last year she expected work done the day the armistice was signed, so it pays to be on the safe side All [Baby] History classes were required to attened a lecture eight hour on Life in Feudal Castles by Miss Jennings, a member of the history department. It was quite good, but I think my brain was a little dull from too much work. And there I am now - that is all I know. I do hope I'll get absolutely everything done for Monday. I am all excited - I know I am a kid. I won't write tomorrow, as this will go in the morning mail. Love, Fannie Nov. 11. Please have the brown silk stocking -> darned before washing, or it will be a goner.
