" 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?"

Dear Friend,
Rec'd your card on Tue. dinner. Was glad to hear from you. Yes, had a very nice time over Easter at Helen's place. Who would not enjoy being in her company? Some of that storm reached E-town on Sun. Didn't you join the army yet? I just heard this evening that they had fire at Hershey. Resp'y, Lizzie.
