Saturday p.m.
Dear Family,Hi! How do you like my new stationary? I got it on special sale in Barnesville (two for the price of one!)
I got Dad's postcard today & thanks alot. It was nice talking to you last night also Mom.
This week-end over half of the school went on a week-end. Jo Smith, Joe & John Stuckey all rode with J.N. Carey to Wil. or where-ever.
Our classes were cancelled today since so many were gone. Instead we had a study-hall where we were suppose to read.
On the last Geometry test 3/4's of us failed it. It was the six weeks test. I got 17 out of 40. Tr. Susan isn't sure what she's going to do yet about it – I guess.
I told you most of what the doctor told me. The "visit" itself was only $5.00. The medicine (lotion) was $2.83. Do you want the bill for income purposes or what-ever? If so I'll send it.
Hinerman's house is really something, isn't it? That purple bathroom still gets me! And then the guest room – Wow! The house itself looks like a mansion!! She also gave me a bunch of chocolate chip cookies & nut bread & pimento cheese sandwiches! Wow!
She (Mrs. Hinerman) seemed to think this place (F.B.S.) was really strict. She asked me if I was allowed to take food back with me. I said "of course" of course (sounds confusing!)
She (still Mrs. Hinerman) drove me to the state pen (jail) in Moundsville. It was an awful building and I was awfully glad to be on the outside of it. I also saw the "mound."
When I was on the bus we went past the Wheeling Telephone building & there were alot of people picketing.
All in all it was quite a day. I just wish my hair would start growing back instead of falling out.
Love,
Roberta
