Dear Family:-
It is the most perfect day imaginable, and the Freshman have no possible cause to weep! They look like awfully nice people, and those here in Raymond are particularly so. I think I wrote that Gail and Kate Worcester’s sister Elizabeth is right down in 305, and she is a dear. I have found the two Southern girls that came from school - Frances Jewell and Dorothy [unreadable] - and they are both coming to see me this afternoon. Prexy preached the most gorgeous sermon this morning - he was at hisvery best, and I only wish he would do the same kind of Baccalaureate addresses!
Everything is still fairly confused, and I feel as if I had been here for months already. There really is no news, but work begins tomorrow, and so I suppose things will settle down.
Elizabeth Thelberg is really in college, and is rooming in North, with a friend of hers. “We Juniors” have sung on the steps twice, and can scarcely contain ourselves for pride!
Lilias and I took a walk this morning, and since then I have been removing grasshoppers from my person,
and have found 3 already.
I was glad to get Jean’s letter and hope you are all as well and happy as I am.
Affectionately
Marjorie
