Some new faces for 1935


Tues., January 1, 1935 - Clear and sunny.  Annie, Ola, kids, Verne and Edwin here for dinner; played pinochle and rummy.  Howard took me and my belongings to Goodlings tonite.
Wed., January 2, 1935 - Everybody in school after vacation.  Passed out report cards.  Irene stopped after school and got my program books.  Examination questions came today.  Copied questions and studied Rebekah installation piece tonite.
Thurs., January 3, 1935 - Gave a few exams today.  Cold wind this a.m. and thawing in p.m.  To Emerson with Irene, Helen and Howard tonite to see their installation.  Jo, Pete, Mike, Dorothea, Bess there, too.  Played cards afterwards.

Goodling is a name I do not recognize from all those conversations around the dining room table with the older generations.  But, it appears it is the family Grandma is staying with at the beginning of 1935.

The Iversen name has been dropped and everyone is on a first name basis so far as Grandma's diary is concerned.

Jo is Johanna Jensen, perhaps?  And Pete and Mike are Jensens?

Dorothea and Bess are the Rew sisters?

I need a program.
