15. The Third Monday of the Month Dinner for October is nc’A history. 
Gam, Frank yisher, and yourself vvere absentees. 
16. Faye and Mom xiiade a trip to Nevv York'last v^-eek by auto. They visited 
some relatives of Moms there and apparently had a very good time. At least Mom did. 
17. V\eather is about normal for this time of year except that we had about 
a three inch snow on the 19th. which v^as. a bit out of line. Then a week later we 
had a th^onder storm with plenty of lightning.

18. It. begins to appear that tiie repairs in the Main ilall of the S. I. 
are going to rm above what I expected. Vvhile there is apparently an understanding 
betv»feen you and the Secretary as to the siiaring of expenses, I am going to suggest 
to him that the S. I. take over the oak doors in the ChiJ^dren^s Room. I tnink 
these will run about six or seven hundred dollars. 
Everything else is running very smoothly . 
Very tr^oly yours.
