Aunt Ruth's Book, Frank's Autobiography, page 4, paragraph 4

In the early days in Mesa, we had to make our own amusements so we were close together in our work and play. Usually I had assignments of work to do and after it was finished I could play. My friends would come for me to go swimming or to play games but I could not go until my work was finished so the boys would help me and then we could all go to our play sooner.
