VALUE OF AN EDUCATION - III: From a study of 5,000,000 men who had received no schooling, it was found that only 31 men had distinguished themselves in Business, Science, and the Arts. This indicated that without any schooling, the chances of success are 1 in 161,290.
Someday, sweetheart, we will dream not only of each other but with eachother - We will fall off to sleep in eachother's arms. And how much you will have to tell me! Something else - the principle reason why you are "broke" so much and so often. It will not profit either of us materially. It is my fault but I should be glad. You will not tell me now because you are afraid it will bother me.

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
