Cincinnati, O., April 17-18-1926 When the train got to Cin. I met Emma, Alice and Albert at the station waiting for me. Then in Albert came to his home in Norwood. April 17. After breakfast Albert took me to the Burlington Gallery where I spent an hour and a half. Some wicked art here, but outside the pictures all in displayed proof. Because of this and general lack the museum needs inspiration and effectiveness. Then looked around town and 12:30 met Albert at the Sutton Hotel where we had lunch. Then out to Brother Phil to talk on what he should do in the future. His wife says that he is broken down and as he is 62 the best thing to do is to quite all duties. This he will do on Monday and resign his job with the Schlage Co. I am glad that he has come to this conclusion one thing in the end I will have to help him financially. Then started back to Albert's home. April 18, Sunday. Spent the day at Emma's with Phil's and Albert families present. Had a grand dinner here and finally a light supper. Everyone was duced Phil to quit smoking and regain his health. It rained hard last night and in the morning it snowed a little.
