Betty Johnson, Wyatt Johnson and I left Roswell about six a.m. Stopped for awhile in Ruidoso. Looked at the string of cots and Betty decided on one for a lease. it surely is pretty up there. Ate lunch by the side of the road just N. of Orogrande or Newman in the broiling sun, Got to El Paso about two o’clock. Rested until four. Went to town to buy a blue felt had and small bag. My last little bag broke on the way to El Paso. Stopped in El Paso with Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Kanen. 909 E River St. Mrs. Kanen is Mr. Johnson’s sister. They are lovely. He is an accountant and worked for many years in Chihuahua! That night Aubrey Johnson, Betty, Lou Simmons and I went to Waterfill Gardens. Fairly good time. Lou is not a very good dancer. Aubrey wasn’t well so we came home about midnight.
