Thurs., 10/2 Received a letter from Raymond first mail. Some newsy letter. Went for Ruth's new shoes and called for Olive to go to the food sale but left again. King and Queen and Prince of Belgium arrived here today. I wonder if their steamer will bring me letters from my Belge amis*. Raining all day today. (*French for "friend")

Fri., 10/3 Worked quite hard to get everything ready for Ruth's party. Baked three cakes and sent out all invitations. Went to Orange Street for candy and favors and prizes. Finished up at the movies with Olive. So hot today. One did not feel much like work.
