Had word that Harry wouldn't be back
until tomorrow night. We are all
torn up. Mother has had beaver board
ceilings put in the dining room &
two parlors. This a. m. I cleaned
upstairs & did the mending. Mary
& I went to the Alpha Club at Mrs.
W. Strasburgeres. We met to knit as
we will once a month. I've knitted
all evening too. Mrs. S[?] & Christine
were here until after ten.

More word that Harry would be back
tomorrow eve. This has been a busy
day. Decided to have a little bridge
party for Grace Berry. Baked a cake
& date pudding. Spent quite a little
time [planning?] Had just two tables of
bridge. They all seemed to have a
good time. Tonight our bridge club
met with the Harris' Several of the
crowd came for me. I went. We
had a hilarious time. Mrs. H. had
a hard time finding enough to
fill the tables. Didn't get home
until 12:30. There were 8 women &
six men. Several of us without our
husbands or wives.
