could hardly wait to get home & up to Matie's! Tonight she, Ned & I went to the "Mandarin" which was quite funny, but I didn't feel first rate, to enjoy it. This beastly pain. The Dr's medicine let me sleep tonight - first time. Feb. 4. Thursday I had a long, long talk with Matie today at noon - all about her own affairs - poor girl! Tonight gymnasium again. The Thursday p.m. class had brought their lunch & staid to see us drill - and we drilled first rate. Tho' I was awfully lame from the great game (I played all the time) and Miss Holmes had an ankle strapped up in adhesive plaster. Then we had basket-ball - Ned & I as homes against Rose & Helen Davis - Score 8 to 6 in our favor. The visitors clapped us frequently. Afterwards I took pictures - two groups - theirs & ours (under the yellow flag.) and then they treated us to sandwiches, cake and olives. Very gay. Feb. 5. Friday Feel better than I have in 2 weeks - but not well. Went to Sibley's to lunch with Matie today & she told me lots more of her woes. Tonight she came up - & Ned - to play Pedro. Mary was coming but had a sore throat & sent Nellie & we had a jolly game just about even. They beat the rubber 56 to 55! I had chocolate & wafers. They went home about 10 and then I nearly covered a pillow - old one - with new olive velour and silk. Feb. 6. Sat. Horrid drizzly day - Staid down in pouring slippery rain. Sat with Emma Lynch at
