(1952 January 18)
Plenty to do this week: Auxiliary, PTA Family Pot Luck, Scout meeting in police court room, foreign student speaker at Woman's Club, but so foggy and icey I stayed home.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
