Laura Davis letters from friends and family, January-May 1942

1942-02-01 Bessie Hutchison to Laura Frances Davis Page 2

Aunt Bess was to come right after Christmas and stay thru the cold weather.  However I don't believe she is quite as well as she was and to me she seems much more nervous.  Don't know how good it is for her to be with Mother, but I guess that is their problem.
How are you any way?  Don't you ever find time to drop a line?  Michigan has no law prohibiting a resident from receiving letters from Iowa!
I am really too busy for my health.  Have been teaching an extra class, from 4 to 6, between day and night sessions, since last March, and it is about to get me down.  But, by being careful, I guess I can hang on until June, which is when this class should terminate.
Our business, generally, isn't quite as good as last year, but has improved this past month.  The army has called so many of our young men, especially from among night school students, that our attendance has been affected.  What a pity that we are into such a horrible war!  But then I guess we, along with other prominent nations, were too
