restaurant. We had a splendid supper and had lots of fun. I struck 2 before I got to sleep. The next night I went to the "Spanish Students" (a concert) with Charlie. There was a very small crowd at the dance so we ran behind. We were going to have a meeting yesterday to settle up, but as the girls did not know anything about it we put it off until Wed. Dell and I went up to the rink awhile yesterday afternoon. She got me to skating and then ran off with Fannie Parkinson saying she would be back in a minute. I waited 1/2 hour and left. Afterwards met her and told her, when she asked me why I left so soon, that I got tired waiting. She went back to the rink and I sailed around and and found Hattie. The "kids" had a masquerade last night but I did not go. The young folks will have another the 31st of the month.
