Beautiful weather, pleasant Autumn Day not very cold. Frank and Dad are at Gip to hunt and see after cattle. Will be gone all day. Mary and Josephine are at the Store. They did the kitchen tasks and put the chicken on to cook, made the noodles before leaving. I did the cleaning of room and running things until all come home for late Dinner. Scripture reading II Cor 9:6-15, Psalm 9.
Josephine brought us a Big Box of Persimmons and some mighty good Country-cured Ham. Cecil and Lena surprised us by coming at Noon loaded down with gifts of fresh Sausage, String Beans, Pickled Beets, Chili and Chow-Chow. We are thankful for these and other Blessings and to have our loved ones with us. Dad, Cecil, Frank, Josephine Cronin, Lena, Mary and I making a Merry Party of Seven. Our dinner was extra good and with Joy and Contentment added giving us a Gala Day. The three girls went to visit with Mabel awhile. The weather has remained pleasant and beautiful. About 5 P.M. Mary took Frank, Josephine, and I to Clinton to see a movie, a good comedy.
Received a letter from Jack. He is now working seven days a week as the Federal work is being rushed along for defense preparation of different kinds. Jack is with Permanent Cement Co. They are manufacturing magnesium for airplanes. Five thousand men are employed.
Today has been very enjoyable in many ways. The girls retired early, tired and needing to catch up with their sleep.
