Mr. William Lindquist, —

Kansas City 2, Kansas.

Dear Bills

I acknowledge with thanks your check for $25.00; also your very
interesting letter. No, Bill, I had not worried in the slightest about
your meeting your obligation. I knew that you would. I know that a
young man has to have a few clothes and a little entertainment, and so
forth, but these college boys have an unusual reputation for paying
their debts. | :

George Spears, the Greek immigrant who is a fine American citizen,
the owner of the Deluxe Cafe, showed us a check the other day that he
had received from a boy who had run quite a bill with him in 1924.
George still had the bills and said, "Don't worry, the boy will pay me
when he gots it,” and in came the payment. Merchants up and down the
street have great faith in the boys' desire and willingness to pay when
they can. Your sister paid $10.00 on your indebtedness. ‘This makes $35
paid on the obligation. :

iam glad to know that you are still working at Chrysler Motor Co.,
and that they recognized your worth to raise you a dime an hour. I am 7
hoping that they again will do likewise in the not too distant future.

I am glad that you like your new home. It must be a lot of fun to
get into a home after you have lived in an apartment. One of our little
) ago in ransacking through our house, said
like this house. It is full of so many surprises."

adds to the appreciation of your home. When a fell does something to
make life more pleasant he appreciates his hone a lot more.
Please give your ded and mom and your sister my kindest regards.

7 felt as though when the Lindquists were not there we were not going to
have @ game. I enjoyed then very much.

I*1l bet when Dean Corder and Bill Lindquist put their heade together
there was something popping at 121 North 13th Street and the environs of
Greater Kansas City. 7 : |
