(1970? Summer)
I cannot balance my checkbook. I try for hours, and last month got help at the bank. Even so, the number the girl ends up with is not my balance, and I do not understand it any more than I do space calculations.
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.
