How is pa an his farm comin on? Teachers down here started gradin al- phabetically an they er way down the line on me. lVlr. Prof said tother day that if I made another F and G I could come home and stay. F stands fer fine an G stands fer good so he's gonna give me a long vacation at home az I'm the only guy on this campus that makes F and G , Most all the students round this place went home last week-end. Mr. Prof would not let me go-said it would be too lonesome without me. He wouldn't let the Schlater twins go nei- ther cause they thought spring was here an went an sent their shoes home an didn't hev none to wear on the train. My gal Sal came by an o' course I went ridin with her but I should have ought to hafe staid coz it's agin the rules to went ridin, so prof, he gave me twenty-five hours-course he hated to do it, but it would a looked kinda funny like not to stick me. I'm kinda his right hand man, you see I stay stuck so's I can do things fer him. I love him-C? If pa has got a ck. I wish he'd put his name to it and send it to me. People don't know how good I rate down here an my name put on a check don't go nowhere. buddies herej he must have a bad case uv somethin. He goes round to the doctor's house all time. I guess he'll be some good when that treatment is over. Shiek jones, he's the art ed. uv the Retrospect. CI clon't guess you know what that iskwell it's the Annual. I'll send you one when I gits itj and Wade Holaday are still talkin about some kind uv a lowe bush. I'll tell you more about it when I here more. Fer one time in the history of this dere old institute,Sabin Rush aint stuck an he looks plum scared. He don't know what to do with all them privi- leges hangin round him. Last Wednesday was Rally Day, we had lotz of fun. lVly society fyou didn't know I wuz in society did ya?J won. Course if they hadna had me they would have more than likely lost. Uv course I aint conceited but if I do hav to say it, I'm good. Tell pa that sos he will advance me a check. Us freshmen up here don't get our heads shaved by the upper classmen, our superiors, we are so green that we get lots uv close shaves an sometimes we get caught anyway, but us fresh- men aint supposed to know no better is we? I here the bells ringing that tells me I kin be with Sal, so I'll hang my pen- cil on the nex few lines. Rite me soon or jes send me the check. Yo educated son, B. A. Holliday fhe's one uv my JOHN.
