Notes - During the first world war, she corresponded with several soldiers serving in France who were from her Huttonville high school class. Letters to her from these soldiers have been preserved. Her most frequent correspondent, from the time he enlisted in 1915 until his death on May 9, 1917 (missing in action, presumed dead) was George H. Tripp.
Lola trained to be a teacher and taught at King Edward Public School in Toronto from the early 1920s until her marriage in 1939. She also took night courses at Central Technical School. She lived with her great aunt Mary Ann Passmore, and her parents at 83 Brunswick Avenue in Toronto, fromm 1916 to 1934.
Lola's diaries, up to the late 1930's have been preserved. Until her marriage, she lived with her parents, enjoyed a very active social life, and was also very active in her church. During the 1920s and 1930s, she had many suitors, and more than one marriage proposal. She likely broke a few male hearts. With friends, she travelled to Europe in the summer of 1930. She also travelled to parts of the eastern USA during summers in the 1920s. She travelled later to Bermuda.
Lola's first mention in her diary of Ray Falconer was in December of 1927. She did not say how they met, but it might have been through Ray's cousin Marjorie Hopper, who lived up the street from Lola's family on Brunswick Avenue in Toronto.
