Wrote home. Went to Crowls. Met Maude S. up town. Had a delightful day. Dandy dinner. Read roses as favors. After dinner Tin went calling - Ed, Mary, Maude, Fran and I walked in Jackson Park and "U" campus. Had my fid. so we had music like old times. Tin sang a little. Home about 10.

Home all day. Much practice. Fran home early - tried to sleep. Mrs. S. played for us all evening.
IN RITA'S DAY: Rita did a lot of practicing so I wondered how she might sound. The following link from YouTube shows a professional (named Bruni, sort of like Rita's teacher Brune) playing some of Firillo's Etudes that Rita must learn.

At last I am caught up with this blog! My grandmother spent a lot of February playing the violin. I spent a lot of this month taking care of my daughter and doing that stupid puzzle. But it is completed! See below.
