Had to go to Junior Dept. to talk on Mexico during S.S. hour. Played for church.  Bernard came by to go to Band Concert in which Rev Hempstead and Veronica Rhea sang the “Minere” Rode around until time for Junior League at 5:30.  Told them of the Pyramids and the Festival there.  Got a sandwichat Mosely’s and back to church.  After taking Mrs. Johnston home we went to Velma’s. It rained a trifle. Met her sister Vera from near Clovis.  Pete, Velma, B and I rode around in the rain.   I saw a lot of country today!  Lovely day all around
