Transcription Notes
Up early, very cold frosty morning. Breakfasted at 7.45 then went to Ligget school at 9. Talked for _ hour and then criticised a set of six girls in Black Nag. Back to Hotel to find long letter from Miss Gilman containing draft Prospectus of Summer School. Took an hour to answer and then it was time to go to lunch with Mr Hume at Little Theatre — a really beautiful place with exhibits of arts and crafts. Had a very amusing talk with several people at lunch and then returned to Ligget School where I took a dance class for an hour teaching Peascods, Sellenger’s Round and Hit & Miss. Back to tea — no time for rest — and then to Hall to take second class of Education people. Both they & Recreation Squads have decided to have two sets of 3 classes each instead of one as previously arranged so I suppose they like us and our teaching! Miss Dyar took us to concert at Statler’s Hotel in the evening where we heard Miss May Mukle [?] and a pianist — a real American mountebank. May M. is to lunch with us at Miss Dyar’s tomorrow at 12.Location
