June 9, 1931 - I finished washing down the walls and woodwork in the kitchen. I washed and ironed my blue polka dot and black georgette dresses. Florence and Lennis were up here a few minutes this evening.
June 10, 1931 - We went out to Annie's tonite right after supper. Ralph came out and I went back to town with him. We saw Florence and Edwin and talked to them awhile.
June 11, 1931 - We washed today. Nick Kahler's were here this afternoon and for supper. We went to the party dance at Hoskins. Ray and Florence Frink went along. We all had a real good time.
Does anyone know of a person named Lennis? I looked and looked at Grandma's handwriting and that is what it looks like. I also have not heard mention of Nick Kahler. Not that I remember anyway.
And it is just me, or does Uncle Ray seem to have a lot of dates, but no one steady girl?
I was looking for a dress from the 30's to use for a photo and I ran across this photo of a dress clip (from the 30's). I have one or more in my possession and I never knew what they were. It looks like they were used as decoration at the bottom of a V-neck or in pairs, one on each side of a neckline. Who knew?
Lennis would be Lennis Schellenberg. Florence Brogren would have been her aunt. Dallas Schellenberg was her brother.
