Dear Morris

  It’s 9:30 and I at last found time to write you.  Just as soon as I finish, I’m going to bed.  I’m plain dead.     

Please excuse the pencil but I plum forgot a pen. And excuse the writing also, as I’m eating a candy bar.     

I like it her lots, but I’m lonesome.  I have met so many girls that I dream about them.     

Guess what, I got scared and didn’t run for governor.  I’m a baby O.K. and I guess I do need rubber pants.  But in the county elections I rand for Supervisor of Registration and glory be I got it.   I ran for a count commissioner too, but  I didn’t get it.      

Yesterday we went to the college president’s home for an reception.  Today we went to the capital and heard 4 lectures.  Very boring. This afternoon we haled state elections. And tonight (7 til just a little while ago) we had recreation in the gym.     

Its’ really beautiful here.  I don’t know if I like it here beter or in Gainesville.  But it is every hot!!  I nearly cooked all day.     

Did you go to church Sunday?     

Gosh, it would be more fun if you were here.  I really do miss you, and do you know I don’t even have a picture of you?  When we go to Mich. I bet I get one!!     

Well, I’ll close for now as I’m so sleepy.  I didn’t get to bed til 12 last niight.

 Love Ya!
Barbara

P.S.  

See you Sat. some time, I’ll let you know definite later.

Love
Barbara
