Cooling Breezes are fanning us today. Pleasant beautiful Sabbath Day. Dad went to Revival at M.E. Church. Essa Simmons, my niece, her husband Sewall and Little Joyce come at 10 A.M. They are on their way to Red River (town), New Mexico, Young's Ranch with 10 other families for Vacation of hunting and fishing. They will be away 10 days. Mary and Josephine cooked an Excellent dinner of young friers, noodles, Potatoes, Tomatoes, Okra, Cottage Cheese, new Watermelon Preserves, Lettuce and Relishes, Beans. All so nicely cooked and tastily and daintily served.
Essa's family left at 12:30 noon to go on West to their destination, Amarillo, Texas, where they spend the night, tomorrow night they reach the end of their trip. Scripture reading Matt 5:43-48. Essa gave me a quart of Red Plum jelly . It is so clear and beautiful. This was her 48th birthday. Mary and I gave Essa a lovely hand-painted Mayonnaise Dish & Spoon.
About 5 P.M. after the girls had their Rest and Nap I went with them to Clinton. We saw the New Movie Picture of "Blossoms in the Dust" played by Greer Garson and Walter Pidgeon. After that we come home with some Ice. Mary and Josephine ate a supper of all that good food left from the Dinner. I drank Ice milk and went to bed.
