Wednesday, February 12, 1936 - Lincoln and Mr. Taylor's Birthday

 

"There were 22 pupils at school today.  Our classroom wrote stories about Abraham Lincoln.  Todays is Mr. Taylors birthday.  Mrs. Taylor and another lady and Mr. Taylor visited here.  Mrs. Taylor and the other lady named Fern went away.  Mr. Taylor stayed at our house."

Saturday, January 4, 1936 - Mother & Daddy went shopping

 

Mother & Daddy went shopping down the [Muskegon] Heights. Mother got out at 3.30 P.M. from work. The snow house we had almost melted down to the ground. it came almost up to Jack's neck. Now it's up to about his knees. Mr. & Mrs. Taylor visited at our house today. They brought us some candy, apples, presents. They gave me a ball, ten jacks, and a handkerchief."

Since it was payday, Marie and Bryan went shopping. They probably also did shopping because the Taylors ended up staying for the weekend (see tomorrow's post).
