Your sister Frances, who you will recall has been a private secretary, wroto last week that if anybody thinks she is going to drop to the level of a common typist, they are mistaken, so we expect her any day. "What with those and the younger children, Imagine that as long as Rupert's salary is merely being 'adjusted' he had better stay.

Of course, Rupert wouldn't know that; he has been working only since 1928; he should ask some old timer to explain what a raise is. "My own business is coming along fine. It was sold on the courthouse steps last there were no bidders, so the sheriff let me keep it. That makes the best month I've had since the upturn."
