75 Years Ago Today
Eileen's Diary
August 2, 1939
This entry is a post from the diary of my mother, twenty year old Eileen KINNICK SMITH, 75 Years Ago this date. She kept a diary from 1932 as a freshman in high school until she left us, too early, in 1999.
Here is the daily entry for Wednesday, August 2:

My comments:
"Light Co. brought poles." PROGRESS!! ;-)

Young pigs and old sows… let's see an old sow… not really that old, but she'll do, for now! ;-)
Families are Forever! ;-)
