Our great-grandmother was an amazing woman. And here, one hundred years later, we have her diary.
Take a trip to the past through the eyes of a teen-age girl, and marvel at how the world has changed -
and the many ways it has not.

February 22, 1913 - Saturday





22 - Again missed Art School owing to loss of specs. Hooked Dan's diary after breakfast. It was lying on the sewing-machine. All of interest was an intimation that he was stuck on Mae. Knew that, anyhow. He came home while I was locked in with the diary, and probably missed it. I'm in for it, now. It's a wonder Dan was not "smit" sooner. He can't have a girl around long before he is, generally. All's fish, so to speak, that comes to his net, or to whose net he comes.


Later - When I went to lunch all was serene, so I am forced to the amazing conclusion that he doesn't know of my crime or, knowing, cares not. Shades of Georgie! (whose birthday it is, by the way) What luck!

Another "Futurist" Picture Done on Feb. 22.
D.F.M. in a state of victory
and righteous indignation.
Me in a state of coma.

Went to Mae's in afternoon. Stayed at Mrs. Mahoney's till Curfew to-night, then went home and spun yarns for Ruth and Norma. Emma (Mrs. Monroe's girl) let Chrissy out of his cage when I was in the other room and the light was burning! I certainly was scared, but I managed to coax him into his cage.
