Dear Pete, I promised to go coasting now, so I have not time to write a letter now. Now that the strain is over, I feel all in. The history was a corker. I'll send it to you, but I want it back. I shall go to N.Y., making the customary Saturday connections. Father will meet me + come back here. So he telegraphed yesterday. Love, FannieMr. M. Lester Aaron, 55 Campbell Hall, Princeton, N.J.

November 29, 1920 Dear Pete: The infreuqnency[sic] of my letters at home, Pete, was due to the lack of typewriter, and the misspelling which I just noticed is due to my great hurry. I forgot to tell you, Pete, that I made debate. Rah!! I got in on time yesterday morning, took a taxi to the Grand Central, had breakfast, sent you a telegram, made the eight-forty-five, felt sleepy the whole way up--too sleepy to work--came out to college in a street-car, arrived at eleven-thirty, straightened...

I forgot to tell you, Pete, that I made debate. Rah!! I got in on time yesterday morning, took a taxi to the Grand Central, had breakfast, sent you a telegram, made the eight-forty-five, felt sleepy the whole way up--too sleepy to work--came out to college in a street-car, arrived at eleven-thirty, straightened up my room, sent you a telgram, had dinner, slept an hour and a quarter, washed my hair, and worked on my Ec clipping book till six o'clock, went off for supper with Mary Baxter, the girl with whom I wnet[sic] down Tuesday, came back and worked on the Ec book again till nine, went to bed, but discovered that the frequent arrivals of inmates of the hall made sleeping impossible till eleven. That is the history of my life. Excuse mistakes, but it is belltime. I shall be exceedingly busy this week, to put it mildly. Tell me about the various dinners, Mother. Where did you sit Saturday night? The bag was in my suitcase. Love, Fannie

[8 Apr 1923?] Dear Pete: I tsalked[sic] it over with Evan, and we concluded that it is highly worth while for me to hear the Penn debate. I can make it without losing much time by leaving Saturday noon. I can read English plays on the train. The others are going Friday. I hate to tell you not to come, but I know you will understand and approve. Do your best to come another week-end early in May. The Heifetz concert was wonderful last night However, we did not get back till after eleven....

Took Helen off for a birthday lunch--none too cheerful as she is most decidedly afflicted with the blues. The weather is heavenly, and I am grinding on my Seminar topic. When spring comes, I certainly do get the golf, tennis, and baseball call. Love, Fannie

She said she doing the wise thing, and under-y. I like her very much per*" don't think she is such a won)^ so I ämnnot wasting any regrel things turned out. I worked quite a while on my Ec topic today. It is very interesting. I was working in Webb's "Industrial democracy'' on wage theories. I worked on debate two hours this afternoon. I am inclined to favor the affirmative, but I ?/ant to debate negative so as to go to Smith. Pap, as a Pittsburgher, have you any dope or could you suggest any points for or against gov't ownership and control (not administration) of the coal mines? Pete, Jim Armstrong's address is "America] University, Beirut, Syria . I was sorry to hear abcut Sam. Maybe they'll lay off that näise-machine now!142 main hai_u vassar college poughkeepsie, n. y. The million dollar shoes came this afternoon, but I have not had a chance to wear them yet, so I cannot report. I had anote from Svelyn Goldenson today. She certainly has taken her shhool instruction in letter-writing to heart. It was almost a take my pen in hand" form. Mr. and Mrs, Aarcn, once upon a time you suggested going to Pinehurst for vacation, Now that I dropped a course, I will be able to stay away the whole vacation, and even longer, without difficulty, so would you care to re-consider it? I think it would be most delightful? Fnat do you think? Of course, I am perfectly willing to coiae home! Love, FannieMiss Fannie Aaron announces that she has formally and finally ceased to be a member of the class in American History. Her schedule is thus changed that she can go away week-ends on the 1:09 train - if she ever goes away. Had dinner at the Lodge last night. I am still not terribly strong. Did you ever get the Cap + Gown snapshot I sent you to N.Y.? You never acknowledged it.
