Dan took me home and was awfully
sweet on the doormat, and felt little
better because he's going out OF town
over the weekend and get in some
Badninton, which sounds to me like
gathering herbs.
The Sidet & Fields Office called up
Saturday about that job at the llaw-
thome Club; il seems they are having
trouble getting girls to go SO far out OF
town. But | said | wasn't screwbald,
either. And | guess | will spend the
next two days walking at least twenty
miles, so that my hips remember their
place. have put up target in the
living room and am practicing darts
to keep my eye in. Also skipping rope
to work off pep. ] miss Dan terribly.
As for Fred, of course. if you feel
that way about him, dear. | suppose
you can't help it; it's probably the
mother in you. But before you lend
him any more, remember that even
mothers are sometimes supported by
their sons. Write soon. With love,
your pal, Patsy Lorraine

Darling May:
The cute red and yellow castle
arrived safely, and put it in the bowl
and told the goldfish it was from
Mommer But how can | tell if they
miss you? ! can say, May, that l
personally miss you a lot; if there
was one of your shoulders handy,
might even lean on it and cry. Gee,
hon, it's terrible to find out that the
only thing about the man you love
which wears we'll is his clothes.
Listen. May, when Dan came back
on Monday. he was full of pep as a
yeast ad. All hoped to the eyelids on
this Badminton. l guess. Anyway he
took me to dinner, and we were both
as happy as couple of greeting cards.
All week it was almost 1000 per-
feet. and on Friday night l thought
sure he was going to ask me If Id
mind Justice of the Peace. but he
caught himself in time. However, he
did blurt out that his deal was going
through okay. Then he told me he was
going to the country again for over
Sunday on another Badminton-jag,
but the deal ought to be in the bag on
Monday, so | was to save Monday
night for him. it was very important.
was so sure by then that my name
would be Mrs. before the rent came
due that next morning, which was
Saturday, took myself to lunch at a
swell little snack-bar where Dan and
l had been several times. There are
booths in this bar. May, and dim
lights and no air, very refined atmo-
sphere. And after had settled myself
down to introducing a lamb chop to a
piece of pineapple, found out that
in the booth between me and the door,
l had friends - yes. May, you have
probably guessed it. Dan and that
rotten little debutante, pale-blues
singer - Ellen de Voc! And Dan was
talking to her in voice as tender as
three-minute egg.
Darling" the brute was saying.
I'm going to make it up to YOU for
everything - you're not going to have
to work any more - and we're going
to be awfully happy, because we'll
be together from now on"
And then the double-crossing So
and SO kissed her and said, Goodbye,
dear, until tomorrow" and went out
without seeing me. And he'd told me
he was going out of town for his
health! He'd better stay there, if he
wants to keep it.
If he comes incoming around on
Monday night, all he'll find will be
