To Miss Taft

Ronald was very glad to get a package in mail. to untie and thanking you very much for us both.

Are weather is a very heavy snow coming so steady you can hardly see barn.

The sleighing is pretty good. So max goes after Ronald, when weather isnt blowing 90 miles an hour with horses + sleigh. The neighbor had to have. a horse Dr. and Dr said lack of exercise. Suprise cow has her daily exercise. when she come up to water. she will not go in for awhile. We are going down and make a little noise for Mr + Mrs Frank Phelep's to - nite. Mrs Pheleps has been nurseing even there marriage So she just came down in hollow. Sunday to live. you are right Miss Taft of all the dirty talk that Ronald don't come home with is terrible. especially about how he was born.

Thay are haveing hot lunch at noon know. Mrs Blanche Colerick is hired as cook.

Ronald had a nice Xmas. But of course he wanted a new bike. But Santa was to hard up, So he is saveing his penny's in a bank, know.

I am sorry you could not make your trip. (gossip) Mrs Tom Richard is expecting again) I just made Ronald an other blouse out of one alberta blouse.

I have the suit all made for him out of dress of Rebecca and have had several compliment on it.

The boys have got enough lumber out of the county to repair there snow plow. which was $13.00. Mr. Henry Fox say he is going to try and get the road fixed next year if he is in . Ditch and all. and then he says if thare guy's don't stay out of road with there farm machinery. Thay will be something doing.

oh yes we bought the oatmeal by .25 pd at a and p store. because there never seemed to be room where the Family goes. to get more. and we only go twice a month.

I guess that all the new's.

Sincerely Max & Family
