User-Contributed Transcription like to hear a reading and how I don't like itWe didn't go over to Seneca until about four. We got there a little after five and saw an hour of the Field & Track meet. That was enough for me. Clifford took Frances & me. He certainly is nice to me. We didn't get in bed until 12:30 & as a result I'm rather sleepy this morning. I'm getting too old to dissipate, I guess.I've been suffering more or less from headaches again since Friday. My one hope now is that I can last until school is over. I guess I will, however. I may not have another headache for weeks - or I might have one just any minute. I never can tell.I went out to Clifford's sister's for dinner Sunday. About the whole family was there. Had a good time. We played New Orleans, Hide and Seek, etc. You see there are a number of little folks there and we had to accommodate them also. I've been so stiff every since, after such unwonted exertion, that I do well to get around at all. A week from Fri. we're invited out in the country to stay until Sunday morning. I expect we'll go fishing, etc. This Fri. is the Jr. - Sr. Reception. I shudder when I think of the similar event last year. The one here this year is to be worked out on the order of "King Tut," with Egyptian decorations, stunts, etc. I believe it will be quite unique in its way.I appreciated your letter greatly, father. You are most encouraging but I fear my talents are too limited. I have been thinking seriously of writing a dissertation on "Sleep." I'm sure I'm qualified on that subject. Another one is the "Consuming Egoism of Man." I have several notable incidents of such types but I assure you that you are the man to whom I will dedicate
