Helen had to go to the office this AM so she went down with Pop. They left at 7:30. About 8:30 Mom and I went down town to get some place cards and took my earring down to be fixed. Then we went looking for a kimono for me and a birthday present. We looked at a silver backed brush, comb and mirror. We decided to wait until we got back to the good old USA. Then we went down to the Osaka Bazaar to look for a kimono. They didn’t have any long enough for me but I found what I wanted. They had the cloth and said they would make one up for me. I came home at eleven and I washed my hair. At two Mom, June, and I went down to see a movie. We got home at about five. Mom was going to a tea and she was late because we were held up by the carnival parade. At six thirty Helen and I went down to the Filipino Village in the carnival to act as guides. It is the St. Supes Benefit thing. We were supposed to stay until ten thirty but there wasn’t anybody to guide around so we left at twenty to nine, had a ride on the caterpillar and then went to Helen’s for supper.
