Fine
Brilliantly clear and delightfully cool
with fresh northerly wind.
  To Dr. Casteel at 8.45 He kept me
until 10 when I went to Cosmos Club
where I read & wrote until 1 P.M.
& then lunched alone. Starting out an
hour later I first called on Roberts
(who was not in his store) and then went
to National Museum [United States National Museum] where I spent
remainder of afternoon chatting with Richmond,
Mearns, Oberholser, Clark & Riley. Back
to Ontario by 5.30. After dining there
Henry & I walked eight or ten blocks 
to a movie show out of doors where
we sat until 10. Admission ten cents.
Place crowded. Most of films trashy
& melodramatic but perfectly "clean."
Audience mainly middle class people
largely women & children. Night air
almost too cool for comfort with the 
strong north wind still blowing.

clear human shouting & was very impressive.
