Dear Chris 
I'd hardly call this anything
except just to let you hear from me.
I don't think I've ever know as little
to happen this week.
I went to Sunday school as usual. There 
were only 23 there but we had a right 
interesting discussion. Mrs. Clark is 
real sick and threatened with pneumonia.
I should have gone to see her but Daddy
is here for such a short time that I
stayed with him. I'll try to go tomorrow.
I've almost frozen this last cold spell
and I hear
over the radio tonight
that another is following. I do wish
it would he pretty weather for awhile.
Sidney Smith hasn't appeared and 
I haven't heard from him. He 
surely won't
be located at Pittsboro


for there is to be no road work
here. I told Leon to watch out for him
He is trying to get work with the High
Way Dept. I hope he gets something. I feel
sorry for him. He looks like a lost dog.
I'm anxious to hear how Martha enjoyed
the dance and if John Allen liked it. The 
paper said that only 70 seniors were going
to attend. I guess they couldn't
get the men.
Christine, I'll be glad to make you a 
dress. Don't pay more than 79c for the 
material. If you don't find anything
before next week I'm going to order
samples from Goldsmith's tomorrow and 
I'll send them on to you. I think
a patent leather belt to match
the material will he pretty to go
with it. You'll have to send me one of 
your last summer dresses that fits
you so that I can get the correct
sizes.
The P.T.A. is to have the banquet
Feb. 11, and the Argantine Entertainers
are to be here with a program soon.

I hope you will soon get the play off your
hands I'm sure it's very trying to practice
during school hours.
Sonny Boy has a new pair of $1.79 Sears 
shoes. He got tired of wearing plough
shoes to church. He got a long letter
from Bernice He had written to her 
telling her to try to get him a pet
coon. She has promised to ship him
one if she can still get it. 
The other night I suppose he was un-
usually lonesome and he said, "I do 
wish Daddy, Bernice & Christine & Martha
was here, We're all scattered, it does
look like we could be together sometime." 
We had a good time last Tuesday at
the quarterly Conference and lots of good
dinner.
I'm entering the 2 inch square that 
Asher & little Jimmie are putting on. That is
to see how many 3's we can put in it. I


almost put my eyes out and succeeded in getting
1255 in the square. Of course I don't expect to 
win a prize but it's an excuse to get the
song book that Sonny Boy is very anxious
to own
I must write to Bernice and 
Martha. I'll try to write you a 
longer letter next time.
When is your school out?
Lots of love
from
Daddy, Sonny Boy & Mother


How gentle bod is gone
To walk the misty night
alone
On stepping stones and stars
that look with the morn.
Perhaps when morning comes
Here under the white plumed
horse - clouds side by side
Harnessed by the wind.
