Professor Hamilton's Diary: May 25, 1935

M.E. gets to play outside; Reading's swimming pool opens for the summer

It was the last day of classes at Albright College. Professor Hamilton got up late and missed breakfast. He came home at 11 and took Mary Elizabeth to the doctor, and with one thing or another it “was nearly two o’clock before we had some dinner.” He must have been starving! After M.E. took a nap, she got to go out “for some sun, as it was warm outside.”

Memorial Day weekend is the traditional start of summer. Paid subscribers can read on about the opening of a swimming pool and other activities being offered for the people of Reading that may remind you of life in your hometown in a simpler time. Enjoy your weekend and stay safe!

The postcard of the South Temple pool is being offered by a dealer on eBay.
