other fellows.

I saw Etta at Kerricks tonight, the first time since I spent the

afternoon with her. I tried to speak with her alone but the

other girls would not give me a chance. I will be even with

them for it.

I came to St. Cloud last night. Today Fred Hart and I went up

to Sauk Rapids to the Republican County convention, this is

my first lesson in "politics" it being the first convention I ever

attended. I believe I would make a good politician. But I don't

believe in laying money out to work getting an office and I

never will unless I greatly change from what I am now. this

evening Fred sister, Hilda and I went down to see Whitneys

folks. Cora and Nell were at home both of them being our

"old teachers" and we had not saw them for nine years what a

good time we did have talking over "old times" and things

that had happened since we last met. I have grown from a

boy to a man. And I think my old teacher is as nice as any of

the girls. and if our ages were a little more equal I would try to

make a match.
