My father started a "diary" in 1945 (more accurately, a journal, covering both family and current events), and I'm going to see if this is a decent way to publish it. Since I'm doing it as a blog, to get to the beginning of the journal, you have to go to the beginning of the blog.

2/19
Lillian took Sylvia to Alexander's where she got her white shoes 10D $3.99. I went to the library with Eugene after school where Lillian and Sylvia met us. Eugene drew "Rusty Wants a Dog" by Huber Salisbury and Gates - Alice in Wonderland by Carrol [sic] and Jack and Susan Stories by Darby. Eugene got a list of words to study in school which were all easy for him. Mayor O'Dwyer's rent tax idea has been dropped after a storm of protest. The Nazis buried children alive it was disclosed at Neurnberg. Chester Bowles criticized the NAM and insisted on retention of price controls to prevent inflation but also asked labor to accept temporary gov't controls and some cuts in take home pay due to loss of overtime. In Belgium elections saw the Christian Socialists gain 92 seats in the Chamber of Deputies Socialists 69, C.P. 23. In the Senate so far it is C.S. 51, S.P. 35 C.P. 11. Socialist Premier Van Acker resigned with Christian Socialist De Schryver forming a government. Sylvia called today at 1030PM to urinate. It was about the third time recently giving us hope she is at last "dry".
