Hello Sweetheart Darling,

Well here it is week in after you’re changed into the hospital.

Here is is Thursday morning. I’m on the street car and boy it is really cold this morning. I didn’t hear from you yesterday but I’m not worried about it. I just have a short time to write so it won’t be long.

I mailed you a box of candy last night. Hope it finds you. Enjoy it for me. If you do it will make me happy. Say, Darling, how about your 20 year insurance policy. Are you keeping it up or have you forgotten it? If you need money please say so. I’ll send what ever I can. I love you so much that I’ll do most anything. Mom is getting angry with me because she feels I’m doing the courting and not you. Don’t let it worry you though. I like it. The table is turned for a change. I bet that doesn’t seem quite right, does it?

Norman has the measles. The other kids can go to school though. So that isn’t too bad.

Well I’m coming down with what Mom had. I have an awful cold and feel a little punk. I’ll take care of it so it will be O.K.

I sure get it swell. I haven’t my earning for Lerner’s and I already have over $500.00. Not bad. Some more money gone. Well darling I must sign off as we are to 7th. Will write more tonight. God bless you sweetheart.

Love,
DeLores

P.S. just one man in my life. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
