[Kalaheo, Kauai] Back in Kauai, greatly relieved at the marriage problem. He is to go to Paris without marrying or being engaged and is quite happy. His father is thoughtful and considerate. Doi finds joy in life even though poor. Discusses Nelle’s thoughts on chatting as a defense mechanism and their own conversations. Doubts if he’ll be able to exhibit [before he goes to Paris?]. The Academy prohibits more than one exhibit a year.
