Today’s solo letter comes from Dot. She is quite understanding about receiving no letter from Dart today, now that he’s back in boot camp.  She reports that she had a dream about him the previous night. He was in civilian clothes and he was not at all like he was when they last saw each other. She prefers the original version and kindly asks that he not change.

She talks about the Harry James tune she’s listening to, wishing he could hear it too. She says one of the reasons she likes Mrs. Woodworth as a housemother is that she lets the girls listen to good music, even after “lights out.”

She describes some of the shenanigans going on in her house – girls blowing off some nervous energy as exams approach. She hopes he gets home in late February and  she is already lobbying the girls to make their monthly date night over the time Dart is in town.

While skating yesterday, she took quite a fall and is sore all over. Her desire for a rub down in “Sloan’s liniment” will undoubtedly prove fruitless.
