Sun, Jun 9, 1946: TWA reservation

"Daddy went to Wichita Wednesday and they still had the TWA reservation so he bought my ticket to Washington....
"Daddy, Max, Stanley and two or three other fellows got the oats cut and shocked.  They were pretty good but it is getting terribly dry so we may not have any good crops....
"Our chickens are big enough to fry now.  We had fried chicken last Tuesday and again to-day.  I think I'll have to dress some for the locker because they are all going to be ready to eat at about the same time."

--Letter from my grandmother, Bloomington, Kans., to my father, Washington, D.C., Sunday, June 9, 1946.
