Hammond, Indiana, June 4, 1913. Dear Bessie: We had such a wonderful time on our week-end trip that I must tell you all about it. Madelon and her friend Bert went with us in our car, and of course Charlie was there with bells. Papa eaid he was sorry he could not take our large phonograph with us and thi3 gave me an idea. I went down to the MUSIC MART on State Street and bought a dandy little phonograph for $7.5". So we took several of our favorite recordB along and you should have been there. Oh girl! I never knew it was possible to have so much fun dancing on the ground. It sure was great. We had to hand It to Charlie and Bert. About a week before this they had bought themselves a ukulele and a guitar and they surprised us by strumming a lot of music in the Hawaiian etyle whileVe were boat riding in the evening. I never knew it was possible to learn these instruments bo quickly, but I am going to- get a mandolin myself and be one of the bunch. Madelon is getting a banjo-uke and by a week from next Saturday we will be all set for another trip to the woods. I. .hope you will be able to enjoy yourself on your vacation in the country; but, oh Bessie! just think how much more fun you would have if you had a little music with you. Lovingly your friend, HELEN.

P. S. The MTSIC MART is at 151 State Street.
