ARGON AND HELIUM, Incandescent gases of the Sun: Electric light bulbs now burn better due to a gas called Argon, which astronomers discovered a billion miles out in space. Through the observation of a solar eclipse, another gas, Helium, now used instead of inflammable hydrogen to fill airships, was also discovered.
Right again, John. Paul is a Prince. I like him more than I do George. Alice and I almost switched dates. Paul was my budge partner. George is the better dance. They are both fine fellows and I enjoyed the evening. Thanks to Eva and Walt! John, you are the Prince among Princes. Mother and Dad both liked the boys but they like John better. Even mother asked - "What makes John seem so different?" You are different. The quality that makes you different is the quality that makes me love you so. Whatever it may be!

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
