The Lab. Wednesday PM.

My Dear Sweetheart,

Did not write yesterday. Had to be at Laakes at 6PM. It was a great picnic. It would have been perfect if you had been there. Mrs. L. had lots to eat. 4 fried chickens, potato salad, sandwiches two kinds, some small cakes which were very good, ice tea, and watermelons. The beer was served at the house before & after the picnic. The niece looks a great deal like Mrs. Laake. She did some dances, recitations etc. She was very good. It began raining when we reached the park but soon it was cool and ideal for a picnic.

Have some Angoras now. They are going to be OK to work with. Think the problem will be about the best one of any they are working. Have been buying a few things for the Lab, otherwise the money will not be available. Bish is in San Angelo. Some of the things I ordered are beginning to arrive. It looks as though I will be about the only one with supplies.

Had a letter from Mr. Parman saying that the Florida material had reached Uvalde. Will unpack some of it when I come down as I will need part of it in Dallas.

Am going down town now for a few more things.

With all my love, Dear,

Your
Walter.
