                                                            March 4th—1925
            Hello Lovis how are you this morning It’s 9 30 a m and I am tired enouph already this morning to sit down so while I do so I shall write a few lines your welcome letter wherein you was telling me about your bed clothes been recived  and I thank you for it I am wondering how you al are & what you are doing to day but I sincerly hope you are all well. Abie and I are well Arthur is helping Jim Maughn this morning to saw wood so I am here alone,

            We have had a whole week of nice weather the people is plowing on their farms and preparing their land for the planting of their garden but it is cloudy to day so it looks like it migth storm and that will be good as the roads are dusty. I went to town yesterday for flour and bran and when I meet a car or a team I could not see the horse for dust.

            Franklin was sick all last week and could not go to work his ear busted open last sarturday and he had two Drs treaten it sarturday after noon he was in great pain but he felt better yesterday and was up to the garage where he works the drs took an axray of his ear and head and had it sent to Salt Lake and the dont know yet if an oparation will be nessisary, so theere is always something to worrie over. Annie and the children is sick to they have a cold I was down theere  all last Sunday and a part of the time yesterday they have a cold Lewis had the croup, Shirley had the cancer and high fever the baby have nursed the cold from Annie and he got a bad cauph but he seemed some better yesterday. he smiled when I spoke to him and he had nursed and slept better during the nigth.

            I wonder where abouts your Dad is now and what he is doing. you know I just dread the time when he will be home a hollering and finding fault with everything but we can not help it as we have done the best we could while he been gone and we have tried not to complain about anything at all even if our neabors been wondering how we could get along during such a horrid cold weather and so much snow but we been blest with good health. I have not even had a cold or cauph only I got my feet froze but they are better now so I can wear my shoes.

             I spoke to Vera last Monday she said she had got the card and book you sent and the reason why she had not answered is that she wanted to finish a sofa pillow she was painting for you but have not been able to get the paint of the same color she wanted so to finish it so she showed me another coushon she is now going to paint so mebe so she will send it to you, I gave her your present addrass so I gues you will soon hear from her.

            I dont know if I told you about sister Crokston having a stroke well she is almost helpless yet they have a trained nurse staying theere all the time and Pher comes out every day Pher is leaving Logan March 15 for the east he is going away for 3 mounths to study more about his profession cora was to Annies yesterday and poor girl it vont now be long before she will be sick and that other baby can not walk yet but she gets up by the chairs and falls down but Annie said she dont get hurt as she got such short legs so when she falls she dont got very big space to fall to and she is as fat as a fatty Johnson.

            I bet Floyd is a very bussy man I bet he dont walk one step but is on the run and jump al the time and I dont see how he does it all. I bet the Johnsons are still very buissy as it has now been some time since I had a letter from Grace that bakery below the inturban station here in Logan is shut down so Max is the only baker here now again he is like the Budges so theere is no change for any one else in their profession.

            well I suppose I have rested long enouph now so I must get to work give my best Love to everybody and you except and acre full of love and x ses all for yourself from your Mother

P.S. write soon plaese and dont play cards any more. I am glad to hear about President Grants sermon as it is his duty to warn and teach the world and then they can not exuse themselves saying they have never heard the Gospel or the plan and the principles for theirs and our salvation I thank the Lord for His blessings and faith and the knowledge  He has blest us with. so let us be diligant in doing his will and help His work along.
