Saturday, November 11, 1922

Beautiful, bright & mild. Arose 7:30 A.M. Breakfast. Pressed clothes. Studied. Worked 12-2 at Ginters. Nap. Studied. Out to supper. Studied in library. Cocoa and conversation with Count & H.H. To bed 12:45 P.M. Thankful for friend, & good parents.

Okay. I thought Stanford got fired from his restaurant job. Now he's back at it? Hmmm. Whatever happened, he's not telling.

And who is Count? Not enough information to make a search yet.

Below is a 1922 magazine ad for Baker's cocoa, the brand they may have been drinking that day. The illustrator, Norman Price, was apparently well known. You can see he's got the little girl wearing glasses on the tip of her nose, like a schoolteacher.

I'm surprised Stanford doesn't mention Armistice Day. But below is a picture of Woodrow Wilson, former president, in front of his home in Washington DC on November 11, 1922. Also pictured is his home (now a museum) the way it looks now.
