Saw “We Live Again” with Alyce Claire and Betty Johnson.  I liked it but I think they didn’t.  Anna Sten and Frederick March played in it. It was a story of Russian peasants and nobles.  I seem to be getting a cold so Mrs. Grady doped me up grandly. Hope it works!  God a bulletin from English School at Middleburg College – Wrote asking them about the Spanish School!  Wrote to Ty-Ty, Jonathon.
