Dorothy's Diary: Jan. 22 - 26

Very slippery and icy. Bought new overshoes for best shoes.
Good day in school. Bought some oysters and plates and fell down on Main St. with them.. Awful mess.
Went to teachers meeting for new class - horrid bore.

Still slippery - Willie told me Paul had his coat - wish I could see him in it.
Home early so rested awhile.
Paul and I at Gally Wags Minstrel Show. A delicious half hour in the dark after we came home.
Paul told of Vernas party to be onThursday night.

Wednesday, Jan. 24, 1917:
Fell awfully tired and sleepy all day. Mr. Farrar at store noticed my ring. Paul took some repairs to store and ordered some bridles.
Sewed crotched yoke on to nightgown. Went to bed early.

Thursday, Jan. 25, 1917:
Cold - started dialogues for program.
O I wish school was out - I am getting disgusted with it. I went to party at Verna's. She announced her wedding. Paul came for me - snowed & he had to walk home. Horribly tired and worn. I wish Paul & I could have a quiet evening at home.
