  Rose at 11, read the morning
papers & letter, lunched at 1,
slept most of afternoon but
did a little pruning in the
Jungle & made a short call
on Walter Deane after 6 P.M.
Had supper with C. [Caroline Brewster] in her
chamber & afterwards called
on E.R.S. [Elizabeth R. Simmons] in hers. So has

  Rose at 10 A.M. To Harvard Square
by 11. Had hair cut at Mark's
(he himself ill at home, however)
and then went to Dr. Andrew's
office to have my teeth again,
treated with oxygen-boracic acid
spray. Home by 12.45.
  Spent much of afternoon working 
in garden with Percy or rather
directing his work for my share
in it was trifling. He
was transplanting things to
the perennial flower garden from
which we removed everything
last autumn in order to work
the ground over thoroughly.
