John N. Calhoun family letters, February 1941-April 1945

1943-03-18 Page 2

the first half, both here & at Birmingham. So don't worry about it. Do I have to have the State Income Tax report notarized. Some say you do and others say not. What do you say? Please get them back to me as soon as you can. 
Your mother is feeling very well. I do hope she won't get this cold the children have been having. 
This is the night the kids are supposed to take their dancing lesson, but I am not going to take Carol, as I am afraid she will take more cold. I didn't let John go to the Y.M. last nite either. They still have mean coughs. 
Did you know that Ed Daley's wife died? She had cancer. She left two little kiddies. 
I saw Art & Stella Ward at noon and Arlene had his eye all tied up. She said Art stuck her in the eye with a pitch fork. Too bad.  Guess it is going to be O.K. Ruth is sick in bed with the Flu she told me. I guess they had to have the Dr for her last nite. I thought she must be sick when she didn't come over yesterday. Must go now & take my lady out from under the dryer.  Four weeks to go. Think you can take it? Hugs & Kisses Mommie & Kiddies
