Dear Sis,
are you afraid of a black cat crossing your path-walking under a ladder, etc.
We are feeling better.
Cheryl Ann says she is going to school today. mainly cause she thinks she can go to the game tonite. We have our fingers crossed.
He, I deep forgetting to tell you, not to send Dr. Nevett any more money. I went to pay your bill, only to find you'd paid most of it-the rest is paid.
Dad went to Quorum meeting last nite at Charlo. The roads are really getting bad. Even the hi way is breaking up. Man, game time tonite is 7-we'll really have to rush it. I'd better do the same.
Love ME.?

March 20, 1959 Karene to Zelda
Dear Sis,
Your welcome card came yesterday; we are always glad to hear from you. Hope your exams are over, and that they weren't too bad, And you are well.
we are all okey now.
Spring looks a bit more promising. THe snow is all gone from the lawn, except a bit on teh north side of teh house.
Sis. Andersan has been transferred; to Billings.
Have you heard from Ernie? We had a letter Letha says they will be up her soon-Ernie may get here, before he goes-I don;t know.
Are you sure the roommates won't mind a mother for a day or 2.
Love Me

Dear Zelda,
How are you-did you get a good rest-or are you cramming' for exams?
Hope it isn't as dismal a day there, as it is here. It is raining. Oh me, if it would just let things dry up, then rain, it wouldn't be so bad. But it is so dirty, ugh.
I've had Barry and Cheryl Ann at home-Barry went to ball practice Monday nite and when he came home and had gone to bed he coughed something terrible. And Cheryl Ann had cramps-I left in the middle of the wash and dashed to town to get some prescriptions (Tuesday that is). Barry surely hated to give up and miss school. He was as proud of '0' days absent as his grades.
I've been afraid of pneumonia. Doc said he may have to come in every other day for shots for awhile. But he stayed pretty well, in bed Tuesday and Wednesday; he is going to school this morning.
Cheryl Ann is so weak-if she is up a few minutes she gets so faint, so I'll keep her home yet.
There are a lot of mumps around. Janice has them, Gordan had them; Stanley has them, and kids from nearly every room. oh me hope Cheryl Ann doesn't get them. There are a lot of colds and flu around to. Sis. Maughn has been quite sick.
Mr. Cr? was operated on a couple weeks ago; he isn't doing very well-has pneumonia.
Frank Berry died of a heart attack. Also Ted Evert of Ford dealers in Ronan.
Will write a letter. Me

Dear Zelda,
How are you we are fine.
The weather was chilly last nite.
I went to Blanches, when the others went to Mutual-we went to bed-then I went with her on the paper route-Galen has gone on a dairymans tour in Washington. I'm so sorry Dad couldn't have gone. We just got home 6:00 AM Blanche likes the Voltz Vagon, she drives it quite different than the Chev. Hope you are well -guess I'll go to bed now. Love Me

March 3, 1959 Grandma to Zelda
Dear Zelda,
How is every little thing?
Did you have the flu? Mom and she tho't you had not felt too well for a few days. Do hope you feel better.
We are all quite well here. I felt sort of rocky last week but I have no time to sty in bed as I fell better. It seems the older I get the more I have to do but I'm sure it just seems so, as I am slower each year.
We have a very nice spring day today. The clothes should dry nicely. Saw Waynnette yesterday. Her baby is due the last of the month. She looks good. Love from us.

Dearest Zelda,
Oh, but it was good to hear your voice! What little I let you talk-hardly let you get a word in edgewise, let alone lengthwise. I had the advantage-in a way, I was the one to 'sprise you; the tears in my voice came as an aftermath.
We aren't sure, yet, when the boys play-it will be the Pocatello 2nd Ward team, they say 'we hear most anything. In today's paper, it says the tournament in Logan, is the 16 thru 21st. And your busy week, darn The YWMIA are hoping it will be Saturday, as they have the "Dear To My Heart, program scheduled on Friday nite. Asking Pres. Patten about it-he said, "if it is Friday nite they boys play, cancel everything." He is really behind them.
Those trophy's really look good on the pulpit of the church.
Everywhere, anywhere, one hears basketball and what a 'sprise those Mission kids are. They surely surprised Anaconda-they thought they had it in the bag. And they are really a good ball club. When they see they were going down, they got rather rough; one of them elbowed Marty and really knocked the wind out of him. Lyle went down twice and Barry went down and turned a backward somersault, came up running' they really played a good game. They worked a new play Hugh helped them with. Anaconda's fatty-porky, they boys called him, who was guarding Dave, let him get in some long beautiful basket makers Thursday nit; so Hugh told Dave to fake a pass to the basket and the fellows would look to the basket, then he could get it in to Jay and he could lay it in. It worked beautifully. Jay was high point man. But who cared, as long as they get them there. Barry is usually tied up pretty tight-and he will be a better player as he gets some experience, not having played much ball before. It takes five to make a team. I guess that is why I got discouraged. Dana could make the baskets and Dad thought (and others) that was the team. I was just a guard-I quit.
See what I mean-everything is basketball.
Or Sunday School. We have two new families in the Ward. Adams aren't active-in fact he didn't want their baby blessed-he blows smoke rings around the ward teachers. The other family are better-I just saw them yesterday-in fact they came in our class, I don't know whether it is permanent or not.
If I do get to come to conference I guess I'll have to come in my old clothes and empty handed for you.
I missed Caulsen and Geneva yesterday, so ask Sis. Merkely about them, she said Geneva has had a complete nervous breakdown. They are stake missionaries and you know how much she puts into it just too much for her. I'd like to go down to see her when she is feeling better and can go home.
Lawrence and Irene are Stake Missionaries now. Gene Maughn is Primary President, Faye and Marjorie her counselors. Same teachers; Gladys is chorister, Elna, pianist.
Valeria got bit by a dog one day last week and is very sick.
Ruby Andersan is miserable, she says she just gains weight so easily-fluid in her system. She was out to church last nite.
Our Ward has a 16 MM projector! They run a film last nite, after church, while the Primary officers were being set apart. So, maybe I can get some film to use in our evening class. Leon will bring a catalogue Sunday.
Edna was out yesterday. She has decided to keep the Junior Sunday School coordinator job.
Let's see I don't believe there are any pregnant women here, right now.
Dana still hasn't had her baby.
Tom and Lilliam have the other two. Sometime they make one rather nervous in S.S. Class. I take playthings, but what one has the other wants.
Grandpa Coleman is feeling real well this winter, never misses a meeting.
Annie Kent is still away. Kate and Curt are home, I talked to her a minute last nite.
Leishmans are glad to be home.
Oh yes, Barry, Marty, Dave,Lyle Kirk, Gary S. Gary B, Howard, Russel, Bryce all got individual Aaronic priesthood awards last nite. Oh yes, Gaylord is a Stake missionary now!
Well, I haven't any more paper, and not much else to say, (bout time) so I send our/my love Mommie

My Dear Zelda:
Are are you sick? We look for a card or letter every day.
Hope it is nothing more than just being busy-'just'-Imagine.
They boys lost their game to Anaconda last nite-4 points. "Course it was rather a let down. Tonite they play Great Falls. If they win, they play Anaconda again tomorrow nite. Hugh Homer is home-he is coach now, rather late in the season, uh?
We are feeling better
Spring is on the way. You know what that brings.
Love Mom
