Dart has over 60 pages of class material to read tonight. He’s glad he dropped typing, now that he sees how they pile on the work in the final weeks of the courses. His poor study habits make him a slow reader.

He got two swell letters from Dot today, but there’s no time to write – very little time tomorrow, either. He’ll correct that situation as soon as he can.

Dot, too, is rushed for time. She has been elected by a 6 to 1 vote to prepare breakfast for 7 to 10 people tomorrow morning (Before she goes to work her regular job.)

Her room is slowly switching from a stilted boarding house room to a gaudy mixture of bright colors. She has painted all the handles and trim on her furniture bright red. “I also painted the knob on my closet door red. Now every time I go toward the closet, I stop and wait for it to turn green.”

She got two wonderful letters from Dart today. They contained just enough “warmth” to make her glow for hours.

She announces that she’s been working on her parents to let her go back to Ohio with Dart  on his return trip. It’s mighty indefinite at this point, but she’s at least focusing on seeing him in 45 days!

“God bless you on those exams. You’re best will be plenty good enough. I love you, Dart.”
