There was a man here this morning selling the Daily Advocate paper. The insurance man from Horse Prairie was also here. Victor Eichenseer was here too. We stopped at Henry’s when we went to Waterloo. Frank Dudenhoeffers & Margaret & the family where at Uncle Pete’s last Sunday. She said we should come over to St. Louis next Sunday. Our little chicks are hatching Sat., so I don’t know if we will go or not but I guess if it don’t rain we will.
