" Dear Elizabeth, I received your most welcome card. I could not come to visit you so I thought I would write. I was home last week for the first time. I saw Clayton's presents. They all are very beautiful. We received almost two dozen presents. I wish you would come down to visit me here at school over Sat. and Sun. I must close. Write again. Lovingly, Mae. Does Bertha go to school?"
