Sidney, Mora, Memphis and Castella have all gone to revival meeting this evening. Sidney took Mrs. Vinney's boraxine up to her house but she was not at home, so Mora went up after she came from school. Had the very same success. Sidney took two cans of pumpkin up to Nellie Morey to change for some kraut. Maud went and got a pail full after she came home from school. One tulip is blossomed, it is surely beautiful, especialy considering the time of year. They just got home a 1/2 past 10 and the children enjoyed it very much. Cassy lost her rubber.
