Feb 24: Still cold and clear. Mama not well and cross. Norma also out of sorts. Charlie here. Vegetable soup for dinner. Myrtle and Helen here for lunch after pinochle game. Brought two pies. Norma sick. Don't know what is the matter.
Feb 25: Snow melting under bright sun. Merritt started to work. Norma not much better. Had a fine pinochle game in eve. Charlie, Lucille and Harold here.
Feb 26: Another nice day. Spent short day working around. Went to Findlay in the evening. Saw Merritt. Dirty. Doesn't like job. Saw "Flaming Youth." Enjoyed it very much. Players - Milton Sills, Colleen Moore, Sylvia Breamer, Myrtle Steadman, Elliot Dexter.
Feb 27: Beautiful springlike day. Almost odor of spring in the air. Norma not well yet. Roger fine. Played out in afternoon. Horace, kiddies and I were over to Lucilles - Ralph and Velma Jones have baby girl.
*I found Ralph and Velma Jones and their family in the 1930 census. They are both 26 years old and have a 3-year-old son, a 2-year-old daughter, and a not-quite-1-year-old son. If they had a baby girl in 1924, she would have been 6 in 1930, so I think she may not have survived.
Feb 28: Cloudy, but moderating. Baked two cakes down at Downings. Had supper early. Stayed home all evening. Bill and Flo here. Also John Harolds.
Feb 29: Just "medium" sort of day. Had a terrible washing again. Just thru at 3:00 o'clock. Went to Findlay with Myrtle. Saw Slippy McGee and Vaudeville. Went to dance.
Memoranda: And so has passed another month, with my big question no nearer a solution than last month. What shall I do? Thankful tho that time is passing well.
