hare tn Bt. Joe. however. It thg neighbors could see me half under the house with a flashlight, look* Ing and listening for a termite, they would probably think that Wyman had lost her grip. Then there is the scrapbook I am keeping for Maureen Elizabeth, a scrapbook about her father. I know she will be as proud of him as I am. but I know, from experience. that she will forget many of the things that she will want to remember when she is old enough to understand about the war and her daddy's part in it So I clip every item I find about Ronnie and add some of the letters he writes us—particularly the notes he adds to Maureen herself. It’s fun and it’s comforting and I get added satisfaction in thinking about how much Maureen Elizabeth will enjoy them years from now. These are some of the activities that fill in the spare hours of this "duration widow." Most of the days are busy ones In picture work. Just now I’m working in Warners' "I*nncess O Rourke * with Olivia de Haviiland, Robert Cummings and Jack Carson, with Norman Krasna directing. That s a combination that will take anyone's mind off his troubles, if any. So. you see. I'm a busy wag widow. And a proud one. Ronnie's friends and mine are always at hand offering to help me forget my lonely state. The Jack Kennys. the Robert Taylors among others, rever seem to forget that I ' MAY be lonesome and would like to go some place with Hum. Night dubbing to out for mo while Ronnie to away. We never did much of it when he was here and it frankly doesn't appeal to me now. But when this to over and the scrap and the scrapbo<*M are finished. I'm going to stay, up all night oom- night, just to catch up with the fun 1 suppose I wdl have missed. , Only, so far. I don't miss K. Fwturee *»•
