Chestnut Street, Atlantic, Iowa. Divided back post card, postmarked June 8, 1911 and addressed to Miss Elsie Neumann, 2122 N. Halsted St., Chicago, Illinois. Message reads: "June 8/1911. Dear Elsie: I notice by the weather reports that you are having cool weather in Chicago. How does it feel to be alone? Isn't it hard to while away your leisure time - especially the evenings? I feel like the Wandering Jew. If I work long enough at Aschers I will look like one. Love from Flue. Notations written on the front of card: "Giants 1st. Cubs 2nd. Under the wire." and the location of "R. Island Station" marked with an X.
