Scope and content
This diary, kept during Xavier’s time at PLC, mentions he plays tennis and watches basketball but quarrels with Signe on April 19th: “How one can live peacefully with you is more than I can understand!”- Signe to Xavier. They gain a new baby girl on May 17th and name her Barbara (Babs). She is officially adopted on June 8th. She also rapidly loses weight but she recovers quickly. Xavier starts Parochial School on June 19th and occasionally prints now. The Xaviers are given a surprise anniversary party by their friends for their 10th anniversary. No accounts appear in the back, but there are notes from Bible Institute or Conference and Entry for May 4, 1922. In front is the list of addresses, as well as an election card and some sort of building plans on the back of junk mail.
