Dear Dr. Allen;

I have received and thank you for
your letter of April 5. I note that you plan on being
in Wichita for the dinner at the Innes Tea Room at 6:45
Saturday April 19, and am indeed glad that you will be
able to be with us for the dinner. I hope that Mrs. Allen
can accompany you, and if she does, we will of course ex-
pect her to be our guest at the dinner. The same is true
if Robert should come with you.

If it will be inconvenient for you to
wear a Tuxedo you need not do so, but it is customary for
our speakers to thus dress.

Please feel free to choose your own
subject and I am sure what you have to say will be grate-
fully received. The club is made up of men and women in
about equal numbers, and while professional people, lawyers,
doctors and teachers prevail, there are a great many busi-
ness people, merchants, manufacturers, etc., among our
membership. We also have as members a great many faculty
members from our two local universities.

The dinner begins at 6:45 and we then
have a short musical prelude before the speaker is intro-
duced. Everybody has a good time and it is not our pri-
mary purpose to solve world problems at these meetings.

I shall reserve a room for you at the
Allis Hotel and will meet you at the Innes Tea Room at
approximately 6:45 P. M.
