(1951 October 22)
Last night we went to the Halloween Party as "Ghosts of the Past" - LL with grin at being comfortable in your Ripon sweat shirt, and I in Helen Tucker's pleated skirt, sweater decorated with frat pins and rolled stockings. Everybody whooping around and had a great time. Very peppy entertainment committee - never an idle moment. DW [baby]sat, asleep when I got here and wouldn't believe it.
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.
