Feb 17 10-AM 1937 Miss Christine Smith Box 888 M.S.C.W. Columbus Mississippi Wade Horn State College, Miss. 008 Tuesday Nite Dear Chris: I sincerely hope that when you read this you will not be in the hospital, or ever feeling badly. You should have been over for the dances last weekend. They were very good, even though they were crowded, and the music was something to write home about. There have been rumors that Kay Kyser will have a chance to come back for the finals Have you been through any more life-sapping days of school- teaching? I imagine that you were almost as scared as I was when Dad caught me Pardon this uninteresting letter, smoking a cigarette at fifteen. No, I didn't see Led Shown and his men dancers, not because they might have been too effeminate, but because I forgot they were to appear, and wandered away some- where else, like school children will do. The bids to the π K.A. dance were mailed today. I "slow-leaked" that dance, in other words no got um bid. I am going home with Helen and her brother this week-end Since you are not going with Chick anymore do you suppose I could have the honor of "calling on you" sometime? I know of nothing that i would like better, if I may? Write soon and don't forget, Wade
