"We just came home from a reception for Freshmen. It was real nice and there was such a crowd. Everyone seemed pleased that so many students turned out. Tomorrow night we plan to go to an all school party--a get acquainted affair. We are glad school has started again. Normal has come to life again. They hired a woman to take Jim's place. The man from Yale didn't take the job because our president waited so long to write the necessary letters that the other school wouldn't release him from his contract. He is disgustingly slow about things like that but B thinks the woman is nice. We were disappointed about it for we would have like to have had the other couple here.
Bobby has been wanting to come back to see you and he asked B the other day why we didn't have a chicken house and some chickens.
Ann has some more new teeth. That makes 12 in all. Another seems to be almost through. Maybe she'll settle down and sleep better when she gets the 16 she should have before she is 2 years old.
I thought you might be interested in this dress, mother. If you should order it don't be in a hurry for it. Sometimes you get things right away and sometimes it takes 3 wks. You can always return goods and they refund your money.
There simply isn't any news. Maybe there will be more next week."
Lots of love,
Bonnie
NOTE: It took nearly 60 years, but Bobby got his chicken house and chickens.
