User-Contributed Transcription M.M. Moore Art Department K.K. Moore Business Mgr. M.M. MOORE Photo Pillow Tops Glen Ellyn, ILL, April 21, 1921 Dear Mum & Grandmum Lovely weather again. Pleasant change after the snow last Sunday. Malcolm has the mumps. Caught them from Carl Feist. The Feists make me mad - They are so unconcerned about children's illnesses. Never have a doctor or let people know what the children have - guess at it themselves and let it go at that. Carl was up here one evening after supper, sitting in the lawn swing with another small boy. Max was working on the car near by, and Malcolm was playing in the swing with the other boys. Max turned around after a while and said - "Why, is that you, Carl? I didn't know you, you look so funny." Carl replied - "I'm just getting over the mumps" (I noticed then that his jaws were swollen. He had been reported as sick in bed, but though I had questioned Malcolm & Buddie repeatedly, had never been able to find out what the matter was.) Max and I then indignantly ordered Carl off the premises. Later
