"With
this new avalanche of work I’ve been forced to revise my bedtime upwards from
10 to 11 P.M. But Fred Tremayne and I
still spend out afternoons studying in the sun, and it seems to pep me up to
the extent that I never get sleepy. Join

“Say
Dad - do you have the dog population of Bloomington Township tabulated
yet?"

Letter from my father, Boulder, Colo., to his family, Bloomington, Kans.,
Saturday, March 31, 1945. My father
seems to be ribbing his dad about his assessing work. Based on assessment records I’ve looked at
elsewhere, my grandfather was likely counting and assessing the value of
horses, cattle, pigs, chickens, cars, bicycles, furniture, pianos, jewelry,
farm equipment and buildings, etc., but probably not counting dogs.
