Went down to Bank with S.S. collection and got Meat. Practised an hour and a quarter. When I came home, Charles had neuralgia in his head. Got him some asperin and he lay down and had a sleep. I left him sleeping when I went to Mrs. Crow's for my lesson. Was to go with Miss Bridgman to McDonald house to see about getting Meals there but as school is closed she has decided to go home on the early train in the Morning. Went with her to Cobean's and the Enterprise office. Got the Mail at the Post Office and took it to the office & then came home. Practised 3/4 of an hour in the evening. Very cold night. Slept inside.

Typed the entries of yesterday for Charles. Cleaned and oiled my typewriter. Charles's head feels better this Morning.
