Mother went up to Mrs. Betty Lantaff's this afternoon but she didn't stay ong because Beulah Franklin and her kids came and also Mrs. Jane Brown. We have been piecing quilts today.

Just heard about the Lindburgh baby being kidnapped with a ransom note on the window sill. $50,000 ransom demanded for the safe return of the Lindburgh baby.
