School! I’m getting so tired of it, sitting there one class after another. Today we had a debate in English. The negative won. Helen’s side. Another written lesson in Spanish. Mr. Rojo makes me so angry. He’s forever giving us written lessons because he’s so dumb he can’t think of anything better. A boring Physics class again. I wish we would begin to have lab again. June and I went down with Pop. We went to the show saw Raymon Griffith in “Wedding Bill$.” Got home at four. I did my lessons and then read until dinner time. After dinner nothing to do but read magazines. Oh! Humm!
Jane’s Notes: Raymond Griffith (January 23, 1895 – November 25, 1957) was one of the great silent movie comedians. Griffith was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He lost his voice at an early age, causing him to speak for the rest of his life in a hoarse whisper. Griffith claimed that it was the result of his having to scream at the top of his lungs every night in a stage melodrama as a child actor—others have stated that a childhood disease was more likely the cause. Although a few comedy films of his are considered classics he is almost totally forgotten today. Like many silent comedians, he had a traditional costume; his was a top hat, white tie and tails, often augmented by a cape and/or walking stick. The coming of sound ended Griffith's acting career
