intercolligiate foot bal field day &
debate. Nearly the whole university
went down & as the fare was
reduced I took the opportunity to
go and get a hat. Theodora met
me at noon. With her help I
got a beauty at Coughlan's. I had
picked out one for $8. not very
pretty. Theodora didn't like
at all and selected a $12 or $15

one and got it for $10. It is
very soft green satin straw with

rosette. It goes exquisitly with
my pink organdie and is so

especially light dresses. I got me
a pair of white best gloves
& that was all - but succeeded
in getting very tired & was very
willing to come home on the
6.30 train. Theodora came home
with me & we had a jolly
time concocting a little supper in
our room out of the remains of
the feast a weak ago - boiled egg
