Didn't see V. today, but I called her up this evening. Went with Walt to the Orpheum and saw an unusually good vaudeville show. Walt believes that a fellow (or girl) is a cad if he (or she) even takes a sip of wine. I wonder when he will change that idea. I believe (?) when gets drunk is not a gentleman but a glass of wine - ah -*. Worked on #1 (?) downtown today. 73,000 cash.

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
