A Clock and Two Spoons



Lincoln, Nebr.
April 16, 1957.

Dear Marie -

It is your turn to write to me again.

I hope you send Martin a birthday card. Don't forget the date May 11th.

I intend to send you a few things. Don't have them just now ready. The clock is one that was given to me. Now I don't need it as I have another one. I think it needs oiling. Perhaps the children can make use of it. Hope it arrives in good condition. The spoon that has the red string on it I thought could be for me when I come out to visit you. The other one is for you.

I hope you can be at home on Mondays as I may call you up dear.

Hope Frank is improved by this time in health.

Now Marie when I come please don't think of me as a visitor. I wish to help you with your work you know that in ways that I can. Perhaps by this time you cant think of what my cousin Anna's brother's names is. I mean besides Elmer. Please let me know dear.

The picture of the ladies with the scarfs is to show you how you can make one for yourself with the material I sent.

With love,
Mother
