Feb 17: Still very cold. Bathed both babies. Had our usual amount of company. None of them failed to hunt us up. C.H., Mama and I went down to Myrtle's for short time. Harold and Lucille down. Harold saw a sight I'm very much afraid--too bad.
*What could she mean? Did he see a ghost? Did he walk in on her in the outhouse?? What???

Feb 18: Cold and still. Merritt still at house. Dick also. Bill brought Allice [?] up and he's sure helping me keep the kids amused. Stayed until evening. Played pinochle last night.
Feb 19: Still very cold. Am certainly having a wonderful time - [it truly looks like she says "not" here. Maybe she's saying "hot"?? but she says "not" in the next sentence and this word looks exactly like that one]. Am sure getting enough to eat and a warm place to stay, but hate to stay and not help. Over to Williamsons until 10:30.
Feb 20: Cold and raining, making a very bad glare of ice. Merritt went to Findlay, but was unsuccessful again altho he says not. C.H. stayed all night. Dad sent Dean and Zeke away. Harold and Lucille here in evening.
Feb 21: No relief from cold. Coal getting low. Harold here at supper time. Mrs. Hanna and Charlie spent eve here. Mr. Hanna and Mr. Harolds came later. Danced.
Feb 22: Lovely day, tho cold. Started a monstrous washing. Decided to go to Findlay in afternoon. Saw vaudeville and "Your Friend and Mine." At night went back - saw "Red Lights." Merritt got job at tile factory.
*I can't find anything about "On the Trail of Lopex" or "Lopez" but it's possible it could be a 1923 movie called "On the Trail of Lonesome Pine."
*"Where the North Begins" is a Rin-Tin-Tin movie!
*On this day, 21 years in the future, Mildred's grandson (Norma's son, my Pop) will be born (in Findlay)!
