EDNA REFUSES TO PLAY MORE HANDS OF EUCHRE

---

A fine beautiful day.

Did usual Sats work

and had to repeat cleaning

that I did day before

yesterday. Henry sowed

clover seed on wheat field

by other house.

Kate and Bill out to-night

Played 3 games of euchre

and men won every game

so I refused to continue

playing so we played

"dirty eight" and had more

fun.

Dick is staying all

night as Bob went to

Freeport + Paul went to basket-

ball tournament at G.R.

Hank went some where too.

Edna is not having it. She is not going to keep playing euchre if the men are going to win all

the games.

There have been plenty of times she has mentioned playing euchre where the men win more games than the women. She has never refused to keep playing before.

I wonder if perhaps the men were rubbing it in a bit.

That and Hank went off somewhere and didn't tell her where.

She put an end to it. They played a different game and everyone had more fun.
