Rita's Entries:
Thursday June 15, 1911
Harmony at 10.  Mr. Brune liked my melody - not harmonized as beautifully as might be.  Dandy visit.  He doesn't like Thais at all!  Rather knocked Mr. Sebald too.  Hard luck - still "I lof heem."  Mr. S. as grand as ever.  Gave Knudson Tin's picture to deliver.

Practiced in P.M.  Went shopping and then to Auditorium to practice for commencement.  Went to school for Tin.  Saw Dr. Ziegfeld about scholarship etc.  Am to play for him Monday and see.

IN RITA'S DAY:  Commencement occurred at about the same time that it does today.  Although colleges usually get out in May so the summer session can start.  Rita's commencement is on June 17 and she will leave Chicago for good on June 23.  She will go from a city with the famous "L"(above) to a town surrounded by farm machines.
