Monday, August 24, 1914


Thursday Irene entertained her Sunday School class and she asked me to come. We played duets for them and had a fine time in general. Aunt Lillie, Ruth, and Gladys were here for supper. Friday we were invited up to Mrs. Kruger's for the afternoon. On the way we went up to Mrs. Johnston's to see Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Davis, Emma, and Nina who were here for a few days. Those present at Krugers were Mmes. FA Smith, Geo. Smith Reed (of St. Louis), Allen Krause, Grandma Krause, Rutschley, Mama, Helen, Harold, and I. (Also, 8-wk-old Esther Allen). We had ice cream and cake, and a very nice time.
This afternoon we entertained Mmes. FA Smith, Geo. Smith Reed, Rutschley, and Krause and Helen. Yesterday we took dinner at Mrs. Rutschley's. We have been having enough RAIN to more than make up for our long dry spell.
My time is mostly taken up between tatting and reading war news. England, France, Belgium, Russia, Serbia, and Japan are all working on Germany and Austria. So far the Allies are getting the worst of it.
