TESTING A ROTTON EGG: Put the egg in the water; a good egg sinks; a bad egg floats; because the gases formed within the egg with its decomposition make it light.
Another day with you in the peace of the winter woods. Fred and Alice were supposedly with us. He, poor soul, must go back to school tonight to "play," but you, dear pal, will play with me. You would take my ring off, would you!!! But you put it back on again and I love you more than ever. You are sweeter every second. This has not seemed one bit like the day after Christmas. Perhaps it's because my gifts usually fill my thoughts - but this year it is you - just you.

ContextThis is the journal of Virginia Lee Scott, my grandmother, written when she was seventeen and first dating my grandfather, John Arnold Wilson. It's a dairy published by Media Drug Stores and includes space for two entries per day, with facts about the era printed at the bottom, which I have included in italics. Following, 1928, is the journal of John Arnold Wilson, my grandfather, at age nineteen and in love with my grandmother, followed by my grandmother's journal in 1931. Archives
