Hello darling,

I’ve been an awfully bad girl. I suppose you haven’t had any mail for 3 days. Its has only been to since I last wrote however. Tuesday mom and I wash the curtains and windows and Wednesday I went forward to the degree. I was elected treasurer and it was installation of officers.

Last night mom met me downtown from work and we went shopping for my birthday present mom. Need a very lovely bag. Good leather. Black but very plain. It wouldn’t be me if it weren’t plain. I also got my Easter suit. It is very beautiful. I changed the color from black to navy. Then we bought mom a pair of house shoes. They are her Christmas present from Dar. When I got home then we have a few things that just had to be done first so I put you off again. But not for long as I’m writing in the street cars send my letter will be in the mailbox same as ever.

I received your letter which brought me your picture. I can’t help saying they don’t do you justice, but I love them and showed them to all the gals at work yesterday. I also can’t approve of you ever taking a few beers, but I know I can trust your husband. You have to make and keep new friends and all and all. Sometimes you must meet them halfway. I got notice of an insured person for me but they, postal, would not leave it without someone to sign so mom is going to the post office for it tonight. I’ll have it for my birthday and I’m sure I’ll just love whatever it is.

We are at 7th Street so I must sign off. Will write tonight.

Love,
DeLores

God bless you.
