May 2 - 4, 1915

Sun. May 2, 1915

Quite cold and grey. Fire in the furnace

Had 5 in my class. Mr Blair preached a peach of a sermon on "When Dreams Come True." Home, Read and then went riding with Mr. Hovelman. He is getting so that he can drive better now. We rode all over the city. Home and proved to Pa that you can not ratchet a crank-handle to escape backfire.

Our cesspool ran over this morning so we will have to dig another one. Read to bed 10:15. Our place was advertised in The Trib. and they made a mistake and put it $2500 instead of $4500. We have had quite a few calls and several are interested. Those who would not consider our place we switched on to Aunt Ethel's.


Man of the Hour (1914)
The film grandpa saw starring Robert Warwick not David. 
Mon. May 3, 1915

Dull and quite cool.

I made a rough table for the play in the afternoon. Drilled a little top. Home 7 P.X. Pa mother and I went to the Calhoun Theatre in the eve and saw an excellent show. It was David Warwick in The Man Of The Hour." It is a very pretty theatre on Lake near Henn. Mr Schweiger runs it. Home and Too bed.

Calhoun Theatre. Notice it has SALAMBO on the marque, that Grandpa saw a few weeks earlier.

Tues. May 4, 1915

Dull and colder. Wore my overcoat in the A.M., but did not need it late in the day as it warmed up. Us soldiers went to the costumers and had our meas. taken. I then went to the "Y" club - Leonard Paulson spoke fine on "decisions." The was a convention of Cong. churches at Park Ave. Church Tues. and Wed. I walked over, but did not stay. Home and to bed.
