Nothing of much importance for a week. Allie & her cousin John left for Strawberry Point Saturday, Apr. 1st. They are going to stay 3 or 4 weekes. I spent Saturday afternoon at Linns with Gracie C. & Baby Richards. Gracie (my sister) not very well. Sunday April 2nd. Prof. Triest has not resigned. I am going to stop taking till we get through reviewing. It won't be long. Tuesday Apr. 4th. We decided at the club tonight to make a quilt for the Home for the friendless. The blocks are to be 8 inches sq. & have corner pieces sewed on & the center is to be light & the corners dark. We are to make two a week. Meg has cut hers out & taken them with her to work on Tuesday nights.
