Dearest Darling,

How are you tonight honey?   I am kind of lonesome.  You know what?  I wish you could up tonight.  I thought about you all day.     

I suppose you and Arnold will have a good time tonight.  Sue and I have to go to play practice after we get our dishes done.  I get so tired of going up there.     

School was easy today.  The only time I studied was in Study hall.  I finished my chapter for the week.  And wrote four page on my autobiography of Edison.  It has to be in before Christmas, and I have only finished reading about 1/3 of it.     

Darling if you want to why don’t you bring Arnold up Fri. night?  Or wouldn’t he enjoy it?  We wouldn’t have to park this one night.    

I went to sleep coming home last night right after we got in the car, and sleep all the way home.  We all came in and we forgot Carol.  Daddy went to look for her, and there she was still sleeping in the car!     

Well, honey if I don’t get a letter from you I’m going to be good and mad.  Darling do please write me!

Love you always,
Barbara

P.S.
  Love you lots and lots and lots. 

 P.S.S.  
Darling now be good. Don’t you and Arnold raise cain.  What are you going to do Tues. We. & Thurs. nights?  Jimmy is coming up Wed
