A FOURTH VISIT to CALIFORNIA My cousin, June Gibson Franklyn, came home for a visit and invited me to return with her in September 1929 to California. I stayed with her, her husband Parry, and Aunt Jennie in a lovely home which was furnished beautifully. I started to look for work. June's husband had a very responsible job of calling on medical doctors to see if they qualified for medical liquor. He was licensed by the State of California to do this. In one of the medical offices, he learned that two medical doctors and a dentist needed a receptionist/secretary. He told me about this job, and Perry arranged an interview for me with Dr. Crosby. I was hired. The other physician was Dr. Faught, and the dentist was Dr. Frechet. I enjoyed my work very much. Shortly before Christmastime, Mother came to Los Angles bringing Ida, Richard, and Shirley. I moved out of June's place to be with Mother and the others. We found an apartment in a court, and Mother enrolled Richard and Shirley in school. Daily I took a bus from our apartment to work. Horace lived with us at this time and traveled to Huntington Park where he had his auto-top and upholstery business. HAPPY to SEE VERN Vern had arrived in Glendale just before New Year's Eve 1929 and had arranged to live with his Aunt Isabell Bramwell and his three cousins, Mae, Edith, and Lorraine. He tried to find work that he would be capable of doing, but all the employers thought he was just a young teenager because he looked so young. So his first job was handing out fliers in residential areas all day long. He didn't have much money, so he would drink water to fill his stomach at lunch time. Finally, he found a few hours of night work parking cars at a nearby hotel. After awhile, he found that my cousin, Junius Ferrin, was managing a soft drink bottling works. He gave Vern a job working in the plant. This, along with his night work, kept him very busy although he was not making the wages he had received at home in Ogden. COMING HOME When mother and the family returned to Utah, I went back to stay in June and Perry's home. In the latter part of August 1930, Dora and Emil said they were going to take a trip to Utah. They asked if Vern and I might like to take the trip with them. I was reluctant to leave California as I enjoyed my work in the Doctors' offices. They had been very considerate and kind to me. Dr. Crosby advised me that when I settled back in Utah to be sure to have regular visits with a heart specialist. I had been a patient of Dr. J. G. Olson
