Dear Girls,

Your letters are so interesting, partly, I think, because they do cover a period of time so that we can feel not quite so guilty if we have had to keep Robin for a few weeks. I have loved to see the pictures and think we should make it a rule that each girl put her own recent picture in the envelope along with the children's. In that way we will know quite a lot about each other. Then let us take them out on Robin's next visit.

Like the rest of you I grow busier each year. I feel like Rockefeller that I shall have to live to be a hundred in order to learn and accomplish the things that allure me. It is growing to be so much better a world, so much friendlier. I still teach at Schenley High School but have many more pupils than when I last wrote. Our school was built for sixteen hundred but there are now twenty-six hundred. One of the very interesting problems of the immediate future is that of the education of the masses of America in the proper way. All the schools are becoming so crowded that some of the teachers feel that the brightest pupils, the future leaders, cannot get so much attention as they need. My sister-in-law with the three children are still with us, much to our pleasure for we all love children. Virginia likes music, Clyde, who is five, says his grandmother wants him to be a preacher, his mother a lawyer, but he is going to be president of the United States. Janet has not been well. She is in bed now with arthritis, rheumatism of the joints, but will be better, I hope. My next interest is insurance which I took up three years ago. I am with The Equitable Life Assurance Society and have found it very interesting work. I get to meet a great many interesting people and have made a number of close friends. Our Pittsburgh company takes the agents who have sold enough insurance for an educational meeting and recreation party each summer. I have succeeded in going each of the two summers I have been with the company. The first year we went up the St. Lawrence, to Quebec, Montreal, St. Anne de Beaupre, and the Saguenay River, a delightful trip. Last year we were at Deer Park, Maryland, during the two weeks of extremely hot weather. It was so cool and pleasant among the great oak trees that I thought myself very fortunate. If any of you would like to know about the best and safest insurance in the U.S., I would like to tell you about it. Next, I teach a Sunday School class, am president of the young peoples' division in our Sunday School and also in the district, and help with some other church work. I belong to the college club, the civic club, etc., but can't do much work in them. Tonight I went with our young people of the church to a missionary meeting at which Katherine Willis, who is a missionary from Foochow, China, spoke. Her home is in Baltimore and she went to Goucher for two years. She is a very attractive speaker and gave us enthusiasm for the Union Colleges' drive which Rinnie Trosh spoke of. Rosalie spoke of our enjoying our trip to Goucher so much. It was fine. I can't tell you how enthusiastic I am over the new campus. It seems to me we ought all to stand with Dr.
