Emily driving. Cora came later. I went home with
them. Will Bremner and Ott to law banquet.

wrote to her. It snowed in PM a perfect blizzard.

Very cold, I did not go out all day. Hattie to S School 
and a meeting at four PM. I wrote Birdie. We all 
slept after dinner. The evening listening over the radio.

I visited Hattie in forenoon and answered a letter 
from Mrs Falk. Cora to a luncheon. Rob took Hattie 
to a Home board meeting and brought me home.

Nixons for long call. Mary went to Des Moines. Letter from Ida.
Wrote she and Lizzie in evening. Weather warmer snow melting. Hattie here in PM.
