Sunday night.Dear mother:-
This has been a busy week end. I certainly have had a fine time with Mabel up here. All the girls liked her ever so much. I (and M.) met An in Holyoke and thot we were going to see the original co. in "Daddy Long Legs" but it wasn't 'till next week so we went to the movie, had dinner at a restaurant and came home and danced down at S.A.H. This A.M. one of the girls gave An a breakfast party, this noon I went down to the Inn with her and had a delicious chicken dinner and tonight another party - Dorothea gave a supper party in Mabel's honor. Harold came over tonight and went to the resurrection and really approved of it for a wonder. He is quite disturbed because you havn't [sic] said whether you were coming up or not and he has the room reserved. I told him not to worry, that you were all right.
We've had a gorgeous time this week - we had some meat that had seen it's [sic] best days and as a result all but 5 in the hall were quite sick. Unfortunately I was not one of the five and spent all Tuesday in bed and part of the next. The M.D. came up and gave me a dose of stuff and I am perfectly O.K. now.
My beloved Dr. Temple has had a nervous collapse and left so I have Miss Devrellelle [sic] (the one who paints her noble plupog [?]) but I can understand her after a fashion.
I had to get another new English book yesterday. We have to get a lot and then only use them a little - it makes me tired. Also I have to send $2. to Northfield. It seems every member of our class has to pay it for our class donation. What next, I ask you?
Mabel told me Alfredda had asked Mildred C's hand in marriage but had been refused. Sad, n'est-ce pas? Perhaps there's hopes for me. I also heard he was building a new jitney.
I havn't [sic] heard about my late return yet. I guess your telephoning saved the day all right and I won't lose my privileges. I am awfully tired and sleepy and it's most eleven oclock [sic] so good night.
Lots of love,
Ruth.P.S. If you get a chance to get me a pair of white buckskins I wish you would for we have to wear white boot gear a lot of [sic] class things & I don't like to spoil my kid pumps. R.M.
P.P.S. If you send to the National for them please get some hair nets
