Saturday August 14th

Dad. has plowed all day in the back field and has got past the niche in the fence so is on the short rounds. I didn't do much all day but cut a few thistles in the orchard and mow part of the lawn this after noon. Frank did a few odd jobs among which was patching the rooves of the old barn and horse stable. Tid. & Enah went down town. The Millman's arrived about eight o'clock having run into some bad roads. Mr. & Mrs. Millman Kathleen & Lou. After they had tea, they all went down in the car and Enah & Frank went with them. I changed my clothes and walked down later and met the girls over at Pete Holmes' casino. We had a few dances but had more fun watching the antics of the others. The girls are staying at Percy's so Frank and I went around there with them and sat on the beach till about one o'clock. Mr. & Mrs. Millman are staying over here. Very hot. We thought we were going to get a real thunder storm to-day but didn't.
