December 5, 1931 - Saturday


I slept until about eleven and then wrote letters until two. Then Doro and I went to show. Studied two hours before supper and then studied two hours afterward. 10 now. I’m going to bed but I’m not sleepy.

George's letter home:

Dear Mother,

If you will count the number of Christmas cards I received last year and then add ten more to that number, I will have enough for this year. All my cards are in my upper left hand dresser drawer. I don’t think there will be so many that it will entail a great deal of expense.

I didn’t do any studying last night; I went down and visited Anne [sic] for a while instead. I have read so continuously this week that I just couldn’t look a book in the face without getting a faint feeling. My little friend snapped me right out of it though. She can just snap anyone out of a depression; I don’t know what it is she does.

Boy it will seem great not to worry about any work for awhile. This darn school gets harder everyday. But I must keep on though, if I ever expect to make anything out of myself.

That is about all for now, Mother; I hope you can send me a couple of extra dollars with my money. Say hello to Dad and tell him to watch that German Goiter of his.


Love, Brother
