Transcription Notes
In the morning went round to the School and did a lot of harmonizing, going fairly early although we had to put our watches on an hour last night to conform to the Daylight Saving Bill, so we got an hour’s less sleep than usual. Lunched at Hotel, rested, had some tea and then went off to West Medford to sup with the Coolidges. Met a Mr & Mrs Baker, Mr Williams and a Mr McGoffan there. Took the children some candies by way of an Easter egg. Had a very nice time there — the usual toasted cheese over the chafing dish at supper. Afterwards we had a long, friendly and interesting argument about democracy, parliamentary government and finally prohibition. Maud helped me a little in the last count and Mr McGoffan but the rest were all prohibitionists — more or less rabid. Returned home with Mr William getting back about 11.30. A very enjoyable evening. Lovely weather, fine, bright & sunny & very warm — well over 70 in the afternoon.Location
