Dart fell asleep at his desk, resting his weary head on his pile of schoolwork. When he awoke, he roused  himself enough to get a short letter out to Dot. He can’t neglect her two nights in a row!

He’s very impressed with the care shown to Dot in the form of bridal showers, which seem to him like mighty handy things to have. He’s curious about the luncheon set she mentioned; is it dishes or table cloth and napkins?

His folks have decided they want to give the kids some electrical appliance as a wedding gift. What a practical idea for the young couple who will have no stove or oven! The list they are considering is: roaster, toaster, mixer, coffee maker (percolator or glass drip?), steam iron, broiler, and waffle iron. When he told them that the latter wasn’t too important in his mind, they suggested that he give Dot the list so that she could hint accordingly.

He makes a short list of things they must remember to do as soon as she arrives in Cleveland (as his Mrs.) First, she must change her name for social security and second, he must update his insurance policy and name her as beneficiary.

Should he write to Hotel Green before he leaves Cleveland or after he arrives in Greenwich to reserve a room for the wedding night? He’ll need hints from her about a birthday gift, too. Also he wonders about his bachelor dinner. Should he have it at home or wait until Greenwich?

It’s a beautiful “springy” night and he wants to go for a walk with her. Instead, he wishes her good  night and returns to his schoolwork.
