Postcard - picturing the main building at Albion State Normal School,
Albion, Idaho with a penant with the initials A.S.N.S. The cancellation date looks like April

"Dear Folks,
Your welcome letter came about a week ago. I am out of writing paper but will write a
letter as soon as I get some. Everything
is going fine. The weather has been
stormy the last week, but it is better now.
The Juniors gave a grand program Friday night. We entertain the girls next Friday night at
Miller Hall. Love to all. Fred"
Lessons:
He sounds like a typical college student - out of writing
paper and writing about the "grand" programs they are presenting the opposite sex. No word about academic progress.
He sounds fully engaged in college life.
It is interesting that he addresses many of his cards and letters to his mother but begins them with "Dear Folks".
