Wed, Dec 10 1947: facts of life

"A funny thing today happened.  I had told Miss Evers some time ago that I wanted to ask her about some things in regard to my wedding.  I had in mind some suggestions about refreshments for the reception....Anyway, she saw me in chapel today & said that I hadn't yet been around to hear about the facts of life. She meant to be humorous, but the Home Ec girls in the dorm are sure that she means to educate me also, & they're all wishing to be a mouse when I talk to her.  It should be interesting, for they are probably partly right."

--A second letter from my mother, Winfield, Kans., to my father, Protection, Kans., Wednesday evening, December 10, 1947.
